There is a smoothing reactor and DC filter between the inverter and the direct current line to form a boundary in the HVDC transmission system. Since this boundary presents the stop-band characteristic to the high frequency transient voltage signals, the high-frequency transient voltage signal caused by external faults through boundary will be attenuated and the signals caused by internal faults will be unchanged. In this paper, a new technique in which the combination of the S–transform and support vector machine (SVM) is used to analyze the transient signals, is proposed for distinguishing internal faults from the external faults based on the significantly difference of high-frequency transient voltage on the point of protection.

The role of a power transformer protective relay is to rapidly operate the tripping during internal faults and block the tripping during magnetizing inrush. This paper presents a new approach for classifying transient phenomena in power transformer, which may be implemented in digital relaying for transformer differential protection. Discrimination between internal faults, external faults with current transformer saturation and magnetizing inrush currents is achieved by combining wavelet transforms and fuzzy logic. The wavelet transform is applied for the analysis of the power transformer transient phenomena because of its ability to extract information from the transient signals in both time and frequency domain. Fuzzy logic is used because of the uncertainty in the differential current signals and relay settings. MATLAB power system toolbox is used to generate current signals at both sides of a power transformer in a typical system with various conditions. The simulation results obtained show that the new algorithm provides a high operating sensitivity for internal faults and remains stable for external faults and inrush currents.
