A Dynamic-SUGPDS Model for Faults Detection and Isolation of Underground Power Cable Based on Detection and Isolation Algorithm and Smart Sensors

This paper proposes a SUGPDS model based on Detection and Isolation algorithm and smart sensors, namely micro phasor measurement unit, smart sensing and switching device, phasor data concentrator, and ZigBee technology, etc. for the identification, classification, and isolation of the various fault occurs in the underground power cable in the distribution system. The proposed SUGPDS is a quick and smart tool in supervising, managing, and controlling various faults and issues and maintaining the reliability, stability, and uninterrupted flow of electricity. First, the SUGPDS model is analyzed using a distributed parameter approach. Then, the proper arrangement of the system required for the implantation of SUGPDS is demonstrated using figures. The Phasor data concentrator plays an essential role in developing the detection and classification report for identification and classification. Finally, smart sensing and switching device installed at a different location isolated the faulty phase from a healthy network. This approach helps to decrease power consumption. Hence, SUGPDS has super abilities compared to the underground power distribution system. The effectiveness of the proposed method and model is demonstrated via figures and tables.
