摘要

Amidst the ongoing rapid growth in the power grid, faults in distribution lines must be detected urgently. Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) is used here for detecting short-circuit faults using Matlab and Simulink, demonstrating a single-ended technique where current signals of each end were measured using DWT. Peak detail coefficients were compared with threshold coefficients to identify the type of faults. A hardware prototype was designed and implemented using a Raspberry Pi connected to voltage and current sensors through Arduino. The Sensors’ readings were used for creating an IoT-based monitoring system where DWT was applied on the current waveform. This verified the inexpensive DWT-based fault detection method for detecting short-circuit faults in distribution lines. This project contributes to smart grid technology by integrating digital components within distribution lines.
