Analysis and Investigation on Causes of Voltage Sag Based on A Novel Apriori Algorithm

Abstract

As more and more power users are increasingly demanding the quality of electricity, the losses caused by voltage sags are becoming more and more serious. Therefore, it is very important to analyze the cause of the voltage sag to prevent the voltage sag in time. This paper proposes a new algorithm that combines Apriori correlation analysis algorithm and cluster analysis algorithm to analyze the causes of voltage sags. Because some typical climatic conditions also have an important influence on the cause of voltage dips, The data is initially processed using climate factors as clustering indicators, and then the correlation analysis between typical electrical characteristics and voltage sags is performed, and strong association rules are finally obtained. According to the calculation and analysis of examples, some factors with high correlation with the causes of voltage sag are found, which will provide theoretical support for the prevention of voltage sag and provide ideas for further research on the causes of voltage sag.
