Jianwen Zhao Yuanbin Hou School of Electrical and Control Engineering Xi’an University of Science and Technology Xi’an, China e-mail: [email protected] identification method of transient characters of single phase grounding fault is presented. Firstly, by normal BP network, transient capacitive current was identified, and then, a improved cerebellar model articulation controller network is given , by this new ICMAC network, transient capacitive current was identified as well as. Amounts of analyses and simulations show that, adopting ICMAC method, the occurring time of maximal amplitude of transient capacitive current and its free alternating component can be identified conveniently; while the relationship between capacitive current extremum and phase angle of fault phase voltage can also be found; identification speed and precision of this novel ICMAC network is higher than normal BP network’s.

Abstract—Capacitive current is an important influential ingredient for extinguishing electric arc, which comes into being when single phase ground fault occurs in resonance networks. In order to seize transient capacitive current’s characters, two identification methods are presented using back propagation (BP) neural network and novel improved cerebellar model articulation controller network (ICMAC) separately. With two methods, the maximal amplitude and the minimal amplitude of transient capacitive current can be identified, occurring time of transient capacitive current amplitude can be confirmed as well as. These methods were proved by simulation with Matlab, the simulating results indicate that this novel ICMAC network makes learning identification speed faster and identification precision higher than normal BP network, through adjusting learning factor dynamically. Effective identification of transient capacitive current’s characteristics provides evidences for further cure of capacitive current.

INTRODUCTION

While single-phase ground fault is happening along the running resonance distribution network, the inductive current of extinguishing coil will compensate the capacitive current which is a disaster to generate electric arc, and then affects power supply safety. So the research of capacitive current’s transient characters is important for suppressing electric arc, controlling complement of extinguishing coil, and etc. As a single-phase ground fault takes place at the distribution network, the grounding transient capacitive current is the nonlinear signal that contains an attenuating free alternating current and a steady-state main frequency current. For the complex nonlinear problems of power system, many researchers deliver artificial intelligence techniques to solve recent years, such as, faulty Line detection for distribution networks based on wavelet analysis [1]-[4], fault line detection based on rough set theory in indirectly grounding power system [5], [6], earth fault detection based on D-S evidence theory [7]-[9], and fault line detection based on fuzzy sets theory [10], [11]. All these are protection methods using steady-state characteristics of single-phase grounding fault. In this paper, the intelligent 978-0-7695-3744-3/09 $25.00 © 2009 IEEE DOI 10.1109/IAS.2009.227

phase voltage, w f is angular frequency of transient free

alternating cycle T f has a relationship T f  2p w f with w f , d is modulus decay of free alternating component ( d  1 Tc  R0 2 L0 ), Tc is characteristic time. When the operation manner of system is steadiness, Tc is a constant. 315

Transient capacitive current consists of free alternating component and steady-state main frequency component, the bigger value of Tc is, the slower attenuation free alternating is, vice versa. It is obvious that transient capacitive current is a typical nonlinear signal.

network’s special feature is that association has local extensive ability, that is to say, Similar or close inputs produce alike output; six to one inputs produce almost isolated outputs. CMAC network is a kind of nonlinear mapping as a whole, but CMAC network is also a kind of linear mapping to each neure, it’s self-adapting (learning course) perform by linear model. In a word, CMAC network have characteristics of high learning speed, no local minimizing. CMAC network can be expressed as a mopping, f : S  P , after received input vector S, CMAC system carries out hash coding, chooses number M of association unit, then produce an output vector P, this output vector is namely the weight value memories lay in association unit A*. Through supervisory learning, CMAC system train suitable nonlinear function. In the course of nonlinear learning, CMAC modifies weights continually, makes weights represent sampling value. Weight modifying equation of CMAC is (4).

IDENTIFICATION OF TRANSIENT CAPACITIVE CURRENT USING BP NETWORK Artificial neural network (ANN) can approach any nonlinear course; using ANN to fit transient capacitive current of single-phase ground fault, more actual wave will be acquired. BP network is a multilayer feed forward network, adopting learning mode of least mean square error, is used broadly. “3-6-1 form” three layer BP network is build up to identify transient capacitive current. A 35kV distribution system is chosen as the simulation object, actual parameters of this system is as follow: threephase grounding capacitance C  4106 F , loop inductance L0  0.025H , loop resistance R0  20 . Through calculation using these parameters, we obtain I cm  36 A , w  100p , t c  0.0025s , d  1 t c  400 s-1 ,

error of ICMAC network is less than 4 106 , and does attenuate; the identification precise of ICMAC network is much higher than BP network’s; In addition, at the same station ICMAC network program is simpler than BP network, the ICMAC network works 20% faster than BP network. Let us consider the maximum value characteristics of transient capacitive current for now, according identification results of ICMAC network with high precise. As is shown in fig. 4 -Fig. 6. 1) If single phase grounding fault occurs at j  0 , fault phase voltage is passing zero point namely, transient free alternating current peak value reaches 24A at t  1ms ( k  10 ),transient capacitive peak value reaches 59A at
