CLASSIFICATION AND LOCATION

OF FAULTS IN TRANSMISSION LINE VIA WAVELET TRANSFORM
ABSTRACT
A technique is presented to analyze fault classification
and location in two system models of transmission line
Single-Ended Series and Double-Ended Parallel. Wavelet
Transform approach is used in analyzing different fault
signals. Daubechies 4 (Db4) and Haar mother wavelet are
used in classification and location of faults respectively.
Energy ratio is analyzed to precisely indicate the fault types
in minimum of times. Fault location is performed with the
error obtained is less than 1%. The validation of this
accurate result is done by comparing it with several papers
on the analysis of fault.

PROJECT BACKGROUND

Transmission line is highly exposed to the occurrence of

fault in the system.
Fault can cause extensive effects on the system.
(Disturbances, Breakdown and Damage in the Equipment)
Fault must be cleared and isolated immediately and
precisely with the used of appropriate approach.
A comprehensive analysis of faults can help in handling
the fault in the transmission line.

CONCLUSION
Classification of fault based on energy ratio analysis can be

identified in a short period of time.

Location of fault using wavelet approach resulted in the
error less than 1%.
Wavelet transform is an efficient approach in analyzing the
classification and location of faults.
