Abstract :
Digital fault recorders (DFRs) are used in substations to capture recordings of various disturbances and fault events. Protection engineers use these recordings to identify reasons for particular operation of protection relays and circuit breakers. In performing this task protection engineers use their expertise related to specific power system conditions, equipment and operations. This paper describes implementation of an expert system which performs fault detection and diagnosis automatically and can aid operators in their task of analyzing disturbances and fault events.
