Abstract: Faults in transmission networks frequently undermine the reliability and stability of electrical power supply, causing load shedding and posing risks to power system equipment. Effective fault classification is crucial to minimize power outages and ensure timely restoration. This study presents a fault classification method for transmission lines using fuzzy logic. The classification utilizes three-phase feeder currents, neutral current, and phase voltages as inputs to the Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). The proposed method accurately classifies the various types of faults in a high voltage transmission network, including line-to-ground fault, double line-to-ground fault, line-to-line fault, and three-phase faults. Numerous test cases demonstrate the technique's high accuracy. The simulations are carried out in MATLAB/SIMULINK using Sim Power Systems and the Fuzzy Logic Toolbox (MATLAB 2016a).
