Abstract :

In this paper, a novel wavelet-based method is proposed to improve the performance of the single-pole auto reclose (SPAR). Despite earlier approaches, a new mother wavelet is developed in this study to carry out the adaptive reclosing instead of using standard wavelets. However, the innovation of the research goes beyond this. The paper's originality also includes the use of a new combination of filter bank coefficients and the proposal of a two-threshold logic to distinguish between permanent and transient faults and to identify the secondary arc extinction time. In order to evaluate the performance of the proposed method, a typical 400 KV transmission line from Iran’s national grid is simulated under different fault scenarios and various operating conditions in EMTP-RV transient mode software. The obtained results demonstrate the optimal accuracy of the suggested technique to distinguish between permanent and transient faults. Additionally, secondary arc extinction is detected at a faster rate compared to existing methods. On the other hand, the proposed method does not impose a heavy computational load, and its implementation is quite affordable.
