The Electrical Power System (EPS) in an aircraft is designed to interact extensively with other systems. With a growing trend towards more electric aircraft, the complexity of interactions between the EPS and other systems has grown. This has resulted in an increased necessity of implementing health monitoring methods like diagnosis and prognosis of the EPS at the systems level. This paper focuses on developing a diagnostic algorithm for the EPS to detect and isolate faults and their root causes that occur at the Line Replaceable Units (LRUs) connecting with aircraft systems like the engine and the fuel system. This paper aims to achieve this in two steps: (i) developing an EPS digital twin and presenting the simulation results for both healthy and fault scenarios, (ii) developing an Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) monitor to detect faults in the EPS. The results from the ANFIS monitor are processed in two methods: (i) a crisp boundary approach, and (ii) a fuzzy boundary approach. The former approach has a poor misclassification rate; hence the latter method is chosen to combine with causal reasoning for isolating root causes of these interacting faults. The results from both these methods are presented through examples in this paper.

Electric power grids are a crucial infrastructure for the proper operation of any country and must be preserved from various threats. Detection of illegal electricity power consumption is a crucial issue for distribution system operators (DSOs). Minimizing non-technical losses is a challenging task for the smooth operation of electrical power system in order to increase electricity provider’s and nation’s revenue and to enhance the reliability of electrical power grid. The widespread popularity of smart meters enables a large volume of electricity consumption data to be collected and new artificial intelligence technologies could be applied to take advantage of these data to solve the problem of power theft more efficiently. In this study, a robust artificial intelligence algorithm adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS)—with many applications in many various areas—is presented in brief and applied to achieve more effective detection of electric power theft. To the best of our knowledge, there are no studies yet that involve the application of ANFIS for the detection of power theft. The proposed technique is shown that if applied properly it could achieve very high success rates in various cases of fraudulent activities originating from unauthorized energy usage.

In this paper, a fuzzy logic controller is proposed for load frequency control problem of electrical power system. The fuzzy controller is constructed as a set of control rules and the control signal is directly deduced from the knowledge base and the fuzzy inference. The study has been designed for a two area interconnected power system. A comparison among a conventional proportional integral (PI) controller, some other fuzzy gain scheduling controllers and the proposed fuzzy controller is presented and it has been shown that proposed controller can generate the best dynamic response following a step load change. Robustness of proposed controller is achieved by analyzing the system response with varying system parameters.

The evaluation of electrical load estimation is requisitely of any electrical power system. This manner is needed for system obligation, economical distribution and maintenance time of electrical system. In this paper, we propose electrical load estimation method based on fuzzy inference system which gives accurate results for estimated loads in Iraq (Diyala governorateBaaquba city). And it can assist the electrical generation and distribution system that depends on important parameters (temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind). By considering the parameters temperature, humidity and the speed of the wind. These parameters are applied as inputs to the fuzzy logic control system to obtain the normalize estimated load as output by electing membership functions. It is exceptionally valuable to form a choice by taking into consideration these assessed readings that come to from the proposed FIS that displayed in this paper with precision of 0.969 from the real stack request.

: This paper presents electrical power system comprises many complex and interrelating elements that are susceptible to the disturbance or electrical fault. The faults in electrical power system transmission line (TL) are detected and classified. But, the existing techniques like artificial neural network (ANN) failed to improve the Fault Detection (FD) performance during transmission and distribution. In order to reduce the power loss rate (PLR), Daubechies Wavelet Transform based Gradient Ascent Deep Neural Learning (DWT-GADNL) Technique is introduced for FDin electrical power sub-station. DWT-GADNL Technique comprises three step, normalization, feature extraction and FD through optimization. Initially sample power TL signal is taken. After that in first step, min-max normalization process is carried out to estimate the various rated values of transmission lines. Then in second step, Daubechies Wavelet Transform (DWT) is employed for decomposition of normalized TLsignal to different components for feature extraction with higher accuracy. Finally in third step, Gradient Ascent Deep Neural Learning is an optimization process for detecting the local maximum (i.e., fault) from the extracted values with help of error function and weight value. When maximum error with low weight value is identified, the fault is detected with lesser time consumption. DWT-GADNL Technique is measured with PLR, feature extraction accuracy (FEA), and fault detection time (FDT). The simulation result shows that DWT-GADNL Technique is able to improve the performance of FEA and reduces FDT and PLR during the transmission and distribution when compared to state-of-the-art works.

Optical Current Transformers (OCTs) and Optical Voltage Transformers (OVTs) are an alternative to the conventional transformers for protection and metering purposes with a much smaller footprint and weight. Their advantages were widely discussed in scientific and technical literature and commercial applications based on the well-known Faraday and Pockels effect. However, the literature is still scarce in studies evaluating the use of optical transformers for power quality purposes, an important issue of power system designed to analyze the various phenomena that cause power quality disturbances. In this paper, we constructed a temperature-independent prototype of an optical voltage transformer based on fiber Bragg grating (FBG) and piezoelectric ceramics (PZT), adequate to be used in field surveys at 13.8 kV distribution lines. The OVT was tested under several disturbances defined in IEEE standards that can occur in the electrical power system, especially short-duration voltage variations such as SAG, SWELL, and INTERRUPTION. The results demonstrated that the proposed OVT presents a dynamic response capable of satisfactorily measuring such disturbances and that it can be used as a power quality monitor for a 13.8 kV distribution system. Test on the proposed system concluded that it was capable to reproduce up to the 41st harmonic without significative distortion and impulsive surges up to 2.5 kHz. As an advantage, when compared with conventional systems to monitor power quality, the prototype can be remote-monitored, and therefore, be installed at strategic locations on distribution lines to be monitored kilometers away, without the need to be electrically powered.

Abstract This article presents a comparison between two different methods to perform model reduction of an Electrical Power System (EPS). The first is the well-known Kron Reduction Method (KRM) that is used to remove the interior nodes (also known as internal, passive, or load nodes) of an EPS. This method computes the Schur complement of the primitive admittance matrix of an EPS to obtain a reduced model that preserves the information of the system as seen from to the generation nodes. Since the primitive admittance matrix is equivalent to the Laplacian of a graph that represents the interconnections between the nodes of an EPS, this procedure is also significant from the perspective of graph theory. On the other hand, the second procedure based on Power Transfer Distribution Factors (PTDF) uses approximations of DC power flows to define regions to be reduced within the system. In this study, both techniques were applied to obtain reduced-order models of two test beds: a 14-node IEEE system and the Colombian power system (1116 buses), in order to test scalability. In analyzing the reduction of the test beds, the characteristics of each method were classified and compiled in order to know its advantages depending on the type of application. Finally, it was found that the PTDF technique is more robust in terms of the definition of power transfer in congestion zones, while the KRM method may be more accurate.
