A New Approach for Fault Location Identification in Transmission system using Stability Analysis and SVMs

This paper presents a new approach to the location of fault in the high voltage power transmission system using support vector machines (SVMs). A knowledge base is developed using transient stability studies for apparent impedance swing trajectory in the R-X plane. SVM technique is applied to identify the fault location in the system. Results are presented on sample 3-power station, a 9-bus system illustrate the implementation of the proposed method.
