Abstract:
This research paper deals with fault detections and dynamic recoveries of electrical smart grids that should be flexible and automatically adapted at run-time when faults occur on lines or devices. These grids are composed of three levels of power lines: High Voltage Lines (44KV), Medium Voltage Lines (11KV), and Low Voltage Lines (380V). In order to control the complexity of detection and deduction, we propose new relations between faults. We define also a multi-agent architecture to allow dynamic recoveries where two types of agents are
defined: static agents and mobile agents. Static agents have as a task the detection of local faults on power lines and the recovery of their normal behaviors by using a local knowledge-base. The mobile agents are created to dynamically move on lines and to find new solutions when no local solution is found. To validate and test our approach, we present experimental results showing the originality of the paper’s contribution by assuming a case study.
