Unsupervised clustering method aids fault analysis in power systems

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed an unsupervised clustering method to analyze fault events in high-voltage power systems using voltage and current signals. The approach utilizes data from the Réseau de Transport d'Électricité (RTE) and extracts frequency domain features via the Fast Fourier Transform (FFT). The K-Means algorithm is then applied to categorize faults without requiring labeled data, with the resulting clusters validated by power system experts. AI

IMPACT This research demonstrates the potential of unsupervised learning for scalable and data-driven fault analysis in critical infrastructure.

RANK_REASON The cluster contains an academic paper detailing a new methodology for fault analysis in power systems. [lever_c_demoted from research: ic=1 ai=0.4]

    Unsupervised Clustering for Fault Analysis in High-Voltage Power Systems Using Voltage and Current Signals

    arXiv:2505.17763v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The widespread use of sensors in modern power grids has led to the accumulation of large amounts of voltage and current waveform data, especially during fault events. However, the lack of labeled datasets poses a significant cha…
