The power detection of the distribution network is essential for reliable and secure distribution. In this paper, a flexible dual-threshold SVDD fault warning algorithm with fault samples is proposed to deal with problems concerning complex network topology, accessible data, and missing fault data in the power grid. For the problems of complicated network topology and a wide variety of signal types, we propose to combine wavelet packet energy features with Spearman to extract electric signal features, and finally achieve accurate feature extraction of multiple signal types. In the case of the problems of untimely judgement and low accuracy of the original SVDD, a relaxed SVDD fault warning algorithm with fault samples is correspondingly proposed. We turn the original SVDD boundary into a double-layer boundary, and divides the hypersphere space into three regions to increase the sensitivity to the fault samples and lessen the risk of missed detection. Besides, an adaptive update strategy is developed, which reduces the computational effort of the model and is proven more applicable to the distribution. Finally, the method is applied to numerical examples and fault detection experiments, and the experimental results in turn verified its effectiveness and superiority.
