Abstract
This paper presents a novel technique for power quality disturbance classification. Wavelet Transform (WT) has been used to extract some useful features of the power system disturbance signal and Gray-coded Genetic Algorithm (GGA) have been used for feature dimension reduction in order to achieve high classification accuracy. Next, a Probabilistic Neural Network (PNN) has been trained using the optimal feature set selected by GGA for automatic Power Quality (PQ) disturbance classification. Considering ten types of PQ disturbances, simulations have been carried out which show that the combination of feature extraction by WT followed by feature reduction using GGA increases the testing accuracy of PNN while classifying PQ signals.
