Kohonen neural network as an aid tool in power system security operation

In this paper, the feasibility of the Kohonen neural network as an aid tool in power system security operation is described. By using the Kohonen neural network, the power system security operation becomes a pattern recognition problem. Once the Kohonen neural network is trained, the Kohonen self-organising feature map will become a very effective aid tool for operators to monitor the present operating state, and can predict the consequence of a schedule operation plan or disturbances.
