Abstract
In this paper a technique for detection of multiple power quality (PQ) events is illustrated. An algorithm based on wavelet transform and Random Forest based classifier is proposed in this paper. The developed technique is implemented on 11 different power quality events consisting of single stage power quality events such as sag, swell, flicker, interruption and multi stage power quality events such as harmonics combined with sag, swell, flicker, interruption. PQ events are simulated in MATLAB using standard IEEE-1159 standard. Significant features of PQ events are extracted using wavelet transform and used to train random forest based classifier. The efficiency of Random Forest Based classifier is compared with other widely used machine learning algorithms such as K-Nearest Neighbour (KNN) and Support Vector Machine (SVM). From confusion matrix of different algorithms it is concluded that Random Forest shows superior classification accuracy as compared to SVM and KNN.
