Development of an intelligent system for power adaptive protection

Resumo

This paper presents the developments made in the Technologic Development and Research Program from AES-Eletropaulo. This project has set up a methodology and developed a computer package for an Intelligent Adjust System of Protection. This methodology took in consideration the global system state, the load level as used by system, besides other outside factors related to protection systems. For that purpose were developed mathematical routines adequate to protection studies, and summed up the area engineers’ knowledge as Intelligent Systems. This system for decision support was introduced using the intelligent multi-agents systems concept, by the use of many advanced techniques of Artificial Intelligence interacting with a master agent, and cooperating between themselves for the solution of problem for protection system adjustment. The objective was to sum up the implementation advantages from each artificial intelligence technique used in the classic problems of electrical systems, and suppressing their disadvantages.
