An Agent-Based Fault Diagnosis System for Power System Operations

Abstract

Fault diagnosis is a paramount important issue in power system operations. In power engineering, most of the fault diagnosis methods are designed for a centralized computer system. Since each power substation is located in distributed environments, the tradition methods have some drawbacks in practical implementation. This work presents a new concept of planning an agentbased diagnosis system to assist operators to make right decision during fault events occur in power system operations.
