Abstract

Massive use of power electronic devices which are nonlinear and mostly unbalanced in nature has influenced the power quality (PQ) in electric distribution networks. They not only create significant harmonic pollution in the electric power system but also degrade the system along the grid. Prediction of the sources feeding the electrical system with polluted disturbances is a pivotal point in the estimation of the power quality. This paper proposes an fast and accurate approach based on artificial neural network (ANN). Unique identification of various types of devices along with distinct harmonic signatures is achieved via ANN utilizing feature extraction through input current waveform. To achieve feature extraction, multilayer perceptron with certain parameters is constructed and trained through backpropagation algorithm with performance compared and evaluated. The ANN incorporating MLP architecture with supervised learning is simulated in MATLAB. The results validate the ability of the proposed architecture for efficient classification of device signature for harmonic contributions with reasonably fast response.
