ABSTRACT
Recognition and categorization of voltage and current distortions in an electrical network is a critical assignment
in power systems control and security. This present work introduces a novel hybrid technique for electrical network
distortions recognition and categorization. The idea of least mean square filter collectively with discrete wavelet transform
is utilized to estimate important features such as magnitude and slope from the measured voltage or current signals. The
discrete wavelet transform is utilized to enable least mean square filter to afford a decent execution; the measured voltage
or current signal is sent to the discrete wavelet transform to find the noise present in it and its variance. The noise and its
variance are then passed collectively with the measured signal to the least mean square filter. These two features are treated
as the fuzzy inputs to the expert system that employs a few standards on the fuzzy inputs to distinguish the category in
which the measured signal has a place. To demonstrate the capacity of the presented hybrid method for categorizing the
power quality distortions, a point by point computerized simulation and its outcomes including different sorts of power
quality occasions are exhibited. The simulation outcomes delineate that the presented hybrid method has the capacity to
precisely recognize and categorizing the power quality distortions.
Keywords: discrete wavelet transform, fuzzy expert system, least mean square filter, power quality, power system disturbances.
