Abstract Power transmission lines are the key network that transmits energy from the generation side to load. The complexity and uncertainty in the power system increase continuously due to the evolution of the smart grid, which needs an effective and accurate protection system. The faults in transmission lines affect the whole power system and also the consumers’ side. Therefore, accurate and precise identification of faults in transmission lines minimizes the losses and maximizes the functionality and reliability of the power network. Due to the recent advances in digital technology, an online scheme is used to locate the fault in transmission lines. In this paper, machine learning-based discrete wavelet transform and double-channel extreme learning machine method are proposed to locate and classify the faults in transmission lines. Db4 wavelet is used as a mother wavelet in the discrete wavelet transform for feature extraction up to nine levels. The proposed method validated on real-time data which achieves higher classification accuracies and less fault detection time. Results show that high-impedance non-linear faults have no effect on the proposed technique.

1 Introduction Transmission lines are a bulky network that carries heavy electrical power from generating side to consumers. More specifically in smart grid transmission lines are a complex system that delivers energy. Transmission lines serve as a way in the distribution network that carries energy from producers to consumers. Transmission lines are distributed over a wide area having a major portion exposed to losses compared to other components in the power networks. Literature

studies and also practical observation reveals that a number of sensors, control networks, communicating systems have been installed in transmission lines to improve its performance [1]. However in an electrical network, power quality is the key factor of interest. Power quality is degraded due to the faults in transmission lines which has a direct impact on the consumers.
