This chapter presents a new method for loss of excitation (LOE) faults detection in hydro-generators using adaptive neuro fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). The investigations were done under a complete loss of excitation conditions, and a partial loss of excitation conditions in different generator loading conditions. In this chapter, four different techniques are discussed according to the type of inputs to the proposed ANFIS unit, the generator terminal impedance measurements (R and X) and the generator terminal voltage and phase current (Vtrms and Ia), the positive sequence components of the generator terminal voltage magnitude, phase current magnitude and angle (│V+ve│, │I+ve│ and ∟I+ve) in addition to the stator current 3rd harmonics components (magnitudes and angles). The proposed techniques' results are compared with each other and are compared with the conventional distance relay response in addition to other techniques. The promising obtained results show that the proposed technique is efficient.

This research work presents an advanced solution for the problem due to the current setting of Relay (21). This problem arises when it is set to provide thermal backup protection for the generator during two common system disturbances, namely a system fault and a sudden application of a large system load. These investigations are carried out using Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). The results of the investigations have shown that the ANFIS has a promising tool when applied for turbo-generators phase backup protection. The effect of this tool varies according to the type of input data used for ANFIS testing and validation. The proposed method in this paper proposes the use of two different sets of inputs to the ANFIS, these inputs are the generator terminal impedance measurements (R and X) and the generator three phase terminal voltages and currents (V and I). The dynamic simulations of a test benchmark have been conducted using the PSCAD/EMTDC software. The results obtained from the ANFIS scheme are encouraging.
