<![CDATA[The regular fault detection approaches are failed to detect the faults in wind integrated transmission networks due to intermittency nature of the wind energy. More reliable schemes are required to accomplish the detection of faults in presence wind. This article proposed empirical mode decomposition (EMD) based fault detection scheme to detect various faults in wind integrated transmission lines during the normal and stressed conditions of the system. The instantaneous current measurements available at either sending or receiving end are processed through EMD to decompose it into a series of intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) and IMF2 is identified as a dominated IMF with numerous case wise investigations. 1/4th cycle moving window is used to calculate the absolute sum of the IMF2 coefficients to detect the faults with the support of a predefined threshold. The efficacy of the method is tested on different types of faults during the normal condition in presence of wind and later extended to stressed conditions such as power swing. The method is reliable during the typical cases and includes remote end and high resistance faults. All the experiments are carried out in Simulink to generate the measurement data and programs are executed in MATLAB.]]>
