Arc faults are serious discharges, damaging insulation systems, and triggering electrical
fires. This is a transversal topic, affecting from residential to aeronautic applications. Current …

High Impedance Faults (HIFs) occur by the contact between an energized conductor and a
high impedance surface. Due to the low fault current level, HIFs cannot be detected by …

Series arc is prone to cause fire accidents, but its occurrences induced by different load
types and connections make the detection challengeable. This paper proposes a series arc …

Accidents caused by faults on overhead power lines have been more frequently reported
under extreme weather conditions and may strongly threaten the safety and stability of the …

Although the diagnosis methods of rotating machinery based on convolutional neural
network (CNN) have achieved great success, they generally assume the number of normal …

This paper proposes an accurate High Impedance Fault (HIF) detection and isolation
scheme in a power distribution network. The proposed scheme utilizes the data available …

Abstract Successfully detecting High Impedance Faults (HIFs) is a challenge for distribution
systems' protection specialists due to the random behavior and low magnitude of the fault …

The diagnosis of high-impedance fault (HIF) is a critical challenge due to the presence of
faint signals that exhibit distortion and randomness. In this study, we propose a novel …

When a high-impedance fault (HIF) occurs in a distribution network, the fault current is very
weak and can be easily confused with capacitor switching (CS), load switching (LS) or …

A new method for high impedance fault detection is proposed in this paper. Stockwell
transform is used to extract the third harmonic current phase angle, measured only at the …
