Abstract

Accurate fault classification and detection for the microgrid (MG) becomes a concern among the researchers from the state-of-art of fault diagnosis as it increases the chance to increase the transient response. The MG frequently experiences a number of shunt faults during the distribution of power from the generation end to user premises, which affects the system reliability, damages the load, and increases the fault line restoration cost. Therefore, a noise-immune and precise fault diagnosis model is required to perform the fast recovery of the unhealthy phases. This paper presents a review on the MG fault diagnosis techniques with their limitations and proposes a novel discrete-wavelet transform (DWT) based probabilistic generative model to explore the precise solution for fault diagnosis of MG. The proposed model is made of multiple layers with a restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM), which enables the model to make the probability reconstruction over its inputs. The individual RBM layer is trained with an unsupervised learning approach where an artificial neural network (ANN) algorithm tunes the model for minimizing the error between the true and predicted class. The effectiveness of the proposed model is studied by varying the input signal and sampling frequencies. A level of considered noise is added with the sample data to test the robustness of the studied model. Results prove that the proposed fault detection and classification model has the ability to perform the precise diagnosis of MG faults. A comparative study among the proposed, kernel extreme learning machine (KELM), multi KELM, and support vector machine (SVM) approaches is studied to confirm the robust superior performance of the proposed model.
