Development of expert systems as on-line power system operational aids: Final report
Expert systems technologies, including hardware and software, have become mature in the last several years. A properly designed expert system can incorporate the expertise of experienced engineers and duplicate human decision-making processes accurately. The purpose of this research is to demonstrate the feasibility of expert system applications in a power system control center environment. In this project, an expert system was developed which serves as a power system dispatchers' assistant during the fault isolation and load restoration process. Results of the expert system development work are provided in this report. The accuracy and efficiency of the developed expert system was validated by utility dispatchers thereby demonstrating the feasibility of the expert system approach. This report includes the evaluation method used and the simultion results as well as a detailed plan for the implementation of expert systems in a real-world control center. 25 refs., 18 figs., 7 tabs.
