Development of Adaptive Distance Relay for STATCOM Connected Transmission Line with Wavelet Transform and ANN
A new scheme to enhance the solution of the problems associated with Transmission line protection with Statcom connected is presentedin this paper.Static Synchronous Compensator (STATCOM) is a shunt type FACTS device connected at the midpoint of the transmission line to maintain the voltage atdesired level by injecting/absorbing the reactive power. This connection affects the performance of distance protection relay during line faults. Thefault detectionis carried out byusingenergy of the detail coefficients of the phase signals and artificial neutral network algorithm used for fault distance location for all thetypes of faults for transmission line. For each type of fault separate neural network is prepared for finding out the fault location.
