In the computerized fault diagnosis of distribution networks the heuristic knowledge of the control center operators can be combined with the information obtained from the network data base and SCADA system. However, the nature of the heuristic knowledge is inexact and uncertain. Also the information obtained from the remote control system contains uncertainty and may be incorrect, conflicting or inadequate. This paper proposes a method based on fuzzy set theory to deal with the uncertainty involved in the process of locating faults in distribution networks. The method is implemented in a prototype version of the distribution network operation support system.
