Abstract

The persistent power failure observed in EHV which has crippled business activities is caused by Equipment Failure, Environmental Factors, Human Error, Cyber attacks and System Overload. This is surmounted by introducing improving power stability in extra high voltage transmission lines protection using hybrid technology. This is done using this approach characterizing and establishing the causes of power failure in extra high voltage transmission lines protection, designing hybrid rule base that will identify the causes of power failure in the characterized extra high voltage transmission lines protection fast, training ANN in the designed rule base for effective identification of the power failure in the characterized extra high voltage transmission lines, designing a SIMULINK model for hybrid technology, developing an algorithm that will implement the process, designing a SIMULINK model for improving power stability in extra high voltage transmission lines protection using hybrid technology and validating and justify ing percentage improvement power stability in extra high voltage transmission lines protection with and without hybrid technology. The results obtained are the percentage of conventional equipment failure in power stability in extra high voltage transmission lines protection is 32%. Meanwhile, when Hybrid technology is incorporated in the system, it reduced to 30.57%. The percentage improvement in the reduction of equipment failure in EHV when Hybrid technology is incorporated in the system over the conventional counterpart is 1.43%, the percentage conventional environmental factors in EHV that cause power instability are 12%. On the other hand, when Hybrid technology is inculcated in the system, it drastically reduced to 11.47% thereby boosting consistent power supply in EHV and the percentage of conventional System Overload that cause power instability in EHV is 28%. Nonetheless, when Hybrid technology is imbibed in the system, it concurrently reduced the System Overload to 26.8% thereby improving power stability in EHV by 1.2%. Finally, it is an axiomatic that Hybrid technology vehemently improved power stability in extra high voltage transmission lines protection.
