Short-circuit fault, also known as a lateral fault, is one of the common types of faults in power transmission lines. This paper proposes an accurate method for identifying short-circuit fault types for power transmission line systems. According to the three-phase A, B, and C values, short-circuit faults can be subdivided into ten classes. An MDL power system with controllable short-circuit fault types is designed and tested. The method of using wavelet packet to analyze short-circuit fault

... forms and using the fuzzy controller to analyze eigenvectors is also proposed. Wavelet packet analysis makes up for the defect that wavelet transform usually only decomposes low frequencies and retains high frequency. Therefore, more accurate frequency band information and eigenvectors are obtained through wavelet packet transform, and then, the fuzzy controller is used to identify the eigenvectors, which can effectively detect and discriminate short-circuit fault types. Accurate identification of short-circuit fault types can improve transmission lines' overall operational efficiency and promote the power system's development.
