A Review on Various Artificial Intelligence Techniques Used for Transmission Line Fault Location

Transmission line fault location has been estimated using various methods such as conventional distance relaying, differential relaying, artificial intelligent (AI) methods etc. Among all the methods AI based methods locates fault more accurately than others. In this work various AI methods used for transmission line fault location has been discussed with their advantages and limitations. Different AI methods that have been discussed are nearest neighbor algorithm, linear regression, logistic regression, artificial neural network, support vector machine, decision tree. With the various advantages of AI methods, it can be used effectively for locating faults in transmission lines.
