Abstract

Short circuit is one of the most popular types of permanent fault in power distribution system. Thus, fast and accuracy diagnosis of short circuit failure is very important so that the power system works more effectively. In this paper, a newly enhanced support vector machine (SVM) classifier has been investigated to identify ten short-circuit fault types, including single line-to-ground faults (XG, YG, ZG), line-to-line faults (XY, XZ, YZ), double line-to-ground faults (XYG, XZG, YZG) and three-line faults (XYZ). The performance of this enhanced SVM model has been improved by using three different versions of particle swarm optimization (PSO), namely: classical PSO (C-PSO), time varying acceleration coefficients PSO (T-PSO) and constriction factor PSO (K-PSO). Further, utilizing pseudo-random binary sequence (PRBS)-based time domain reflectometry (TDR) method allows to obtain a reliable dataset for SVM classifier. The experimental results performed on a two-branch distribution line show the most optimal variant of PSO for short fault diagnosis.

Abstract

The use of renewable energy systems, specifically photovoltaic (PV) systems (PVs) that convert solar energy into electricity, has become a popular solution to address global environmental concerns by reducing the utilization of non-renewable energy sources, which contribute to pollution. Efforts to increase the power transfer effectiveness of PV systems include the advancement of controllers for maximizing power point tracking (MPPT). These controllers guarantee optimal system operation at the maximum power point (MPP) in diverse environmental conditions. The paper proposes an improved deep reinforcement learning (DRL) method, namely deep deterministic policy gradient (DDPG), to capture the MPP in PV systems, particularly when dealing with partial shading conditions (PSCs). Unlike reinforcement learning methods that only work with discrete state and action spaces, the proposed DDPG method can handle continuous action state spaces. Feasibility analysis is conducted using MATLAB/Simulink simulations, and the findings demonstrate the efficiency and superior performance of the suggested solutions, highlighting their potential for future use.
