Abstract

In this research a new approach is introduced for detecting and classifying faults in a Thyristor-Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) compensated power system. Our proposed scheme utilizes both the Fast Walsh Hadamard Transform (FWHT) and machine learning algorithms. The FWHT is employed to extract fault features from current data obtained from the TCSC compensated transmission line, while machine learning algorithms such as K-Nearest Neighbor (K-NN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM) are used to classify the extracted features for the purpose of fault detection and identification. To evaluate the performance of our proposed scheme, simulation studies were conducted on a test system under various fault conditions. The simulation results demonstrate that our approach is highly effective in accurately and quickly detecting and classifying faults, even when noise and TCSC compensation are present. This scheme has the potential to enhance the reliability and efficiency of power transmission systems.
