A Highly efficient relay triggering circuit for fault detection during Power swings
Main Article Content
Abstract
This paper introduces a Discrete Wavelet Transform based very simple and fast acting algorithm with multi-resolution analysis to sense all types of faults in presence of power swings using current signal analyzation. The algorithm confirms very quick and efficient detection of various fault types in the first signal decomposition level of signal. The novelty of proposed algorithm lies in use of special type of Battle Lemarie mother wavelet having an advantage of perfect symmetry ensuring decomposition into B-Spline or same order polynomials capturing excellent speed and time-frequency localization of signal. The algorithm is tested for different fault parameters such as fault resistance, fault distance and time of initiation of faults considering EHV double circuit transmission line network and IEEE 9 Bus system developed in MATLAB environment. The proposed algorithm is capable of detecting all types of faults consistently within minimum time of 0.001 sec.
