EXPERT SYSTEM FOR RESTORING TRUNK POWER SYSTEMS FROM COMPLETE SYSTEM COLLAPSE

Abstract

In this paper, an expert system for restoring bulk power systems from complete collapse is proposed. The system secures an initial power source, integrates the trunk transmission system, and restarts all power stations. The rules were divided into several groups, and mainly used to control the flow of the restoration process. The detailed procedures were left to functions defined in Lisp. A partial knowledge, such as priorities in choosing an initial power source, in restoring power stations and substations, is read from data files. By adopting this method, system operators can adjust the restoration process so as to fit each individual power system without changing programs.
