Application of computer artificial intelligence techniques to analyzing the status of typical utility electrical power plant systems

A description is given of the application of artificial intelligence (AI) techniques to utility electrical power plant systems. The considerations inherent in proceeding with the deployment of AI techniques in the form of an expert system are presented, and opportunities for improvements in this application are discussed. The implementation of an expert system, Battery, for a 125 V DC battery system is examined. The final rule-based form of the system, consisting of 26 rules, is shown.<
