Abstract

Power quality disturbance (PQD) monitoring has become an important issue in modern power system due to integration of several  renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic (PV), wind energy system (WES), Fuel cells etc. This research presents a mode  decomposed based ensemble extreme learning machine (EELM) to recognise and classify the PQD events with higher accuracy in terms  of rapid learning speed and smaller computational burden in a complete PV based power system, The PQD signals are decomposed  using a variational mode decomposition (VMD) to obtain effective band limited intrinsic mode functions (BIIMF) which leads to compute  robust features and improves classification accuracy. For Power Quality Disturbances detection and classification, an ensemble extreme learning machine is suggested since an ensemble outperforms any single contributing model in terms of performance and prediction.  The proposed VMD-EELM approach is validated in a modified IEEE 13 Bus system integrating PV with eleven types of PQDs. The proposed  research having 100% classification accuracy for no noise and 99.88%, 99.94% 99.94% for 20dB, 30dB and 40dB noises respectively. It is  being demonstrated that the suggested method can reliably identify and track PQD occurrences both with and without noise.
