Screening power system contingencies using a back-propagation trained multiperceptron

The utility of trained neural networks in calculating the network state and classifying its security status under different load and contingency conditions is demonstrated. In particular, a two-layer multiperceptron is used to screen contingent branch overloads. The performance of this approach is evaluated using a six-bus example. The results indicate that the proposed tasks can be performed reliably by back-propagation-trained multiperceptrons.<
