Abstract :
The electric power distribution systems of Naval Ships require autonomous control under all operating conditions. In some instances, natural or forced disturbances lead to arc faults between conductors and/or the hull of the ship. This paper develops a Rule-Base (RB) approach for arcing fault control with appropriate recommendations that minimize the effect of the arc current. The proposed technique applies an Intelligent Systems (IS) solution strategy to solve a unique and complex problem that is of value to the Navy.
