This paper proposed a new algorithm for fault location and classification using wavelet based on Clarke's transformation to obtain the fault current. This novel method of fault current approach is studied by comparing the use of the glide path of the fault voltage. The current alpha and beta (Current Mode) were used to transform the signal using discrete wavelet transform (DWT). The fault location was determined by using the Clarke's transformation, and then turned into a wavelet, which was very precise and thorough. The most accurate was the mother wavelet Db4 which had the fastest time and smallest error detection when compared with the other wavelet mothers. In this study, the Clarke's transformation is also compared with the Karenbauer's, which has produced results with similar error percentage. The simulation results using PSCAD / EMTDC software showed that the proposed algorithm could distinguish internal and external faults to get the current signal in the transformation of a signal fault.

Abstract-The specific objective of this research is to produce a system of internallightning and Eksternal lightning rod with grounding which has been widely used in industries such as lightning protection and grounding system of substation, transmission lines and coupling wire used in high-rise buildings either belong to government or private property. In this study, lightning rod is located outside the building structure that serves to catch or receive the bolt of lightning and the lightning deliver to the ground safely.

Among several types, variable speed-based wind turbine generator (WTG) is the most popular type installed worldwide. This type of WTG is able to extract 5% more energy from wind speed compared to the fixed speed WTG. There are two kinds of variable speed based WTG; Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG) and Full Converter Wind Energy Conversion System (FCWECS). DFIG and FCWECS are placed at the first and second topWTG installation worldwide since 2004. However, both of them are very sensitive to the grid dip fault and may violate the allowable margins identified by various international Fault Ride Through (FRT) codes. This paper aims to investigate the responses of DFIG and FCWECS during certain level of grid dips and compare their performanceunder such event. Results show some differences of the performance of DFIG and FCWECS during voltage sag event, however the voltage profile at the point of common coupling is much better in case of DFIG. Results also recommend that DFIG can be effective when connected to weak grids whilst FCWECS is preferably to be connected to strong grids.

Abstract-On one hand, the particular objective of this research is to yield the software program in order to control efficiently the important aspects in electric power systems which can be implemented in industries. In the other hand, the longterm objective is to extend the curriculum, syllabi, laboratory facilities, and to improve the abilities and qualities of graduates continuously either within State Polytechnic of Ujung Pandang or outside. Method used to achieve these objectives is making, design and implementation which will be last for two years. Simulator for generation system in the first stage of the research is balanced six-phase system yielded from the circuit of 3-one phase centre-tap transformers of 220/18 V, 15 A, as the supply of low-tension 3-phase system, which feeds six one-phase transformer of 18/220 V, 20 A, whose output as another balanced 3-phase system with 220 V/phase. From balanced 6-phase system, a balanced 3-phase will simulate generator number 1 and another balanced 3-phase will simulate that of number 2. Interface which is based on Delphi program is to switch all transmission lines. The result of experiment shows that voltages in the two generator busbars experience the significant drop voltage if they work separately, that are 20.5% -36.4% and 20.5% -63.6% for generator number 1 and number 2 respectively, for one to three load busbars operated sequentially, which also reveals that greatest voltage drop occurs in the generator busbar with most lines supplied. Simulating the two generators working simultaneously, then voltage drops are more significant, that are 65.9% -72.7% and 65.9% -79.5% for generator number 1 and number 2 respectively, for one to three load busbars operated sequentially, which also proves that transformer bank as generator simulator needs to increase its current capacity.
