Accounting power supply schemes for traction substations in the calculation of short circuits in the AC traction network by Yu. I. Zharkov, N. A. Popova, E. P. Figurnov

“…Resistance of the supporting substations as power sources must takes into account connected equivalent power system.Such equivalenting should be carried out by known values of currents or short-circuit powers at the inputs of the reference substation or, if such information is not available, by the rated values of the switched-off currents or powers of the switches of high-voltage line connections.The following power schemes for traction substations are considered: each from its own supporting substation, which is part of an electrically uncoupled external power supply system; from the double-circuit high-voltage line of longitudinal power supply when it is powered from different supporting substations; from the supporting network substation, the traction substation receives power from two lines, and from this the traction substations receive power from two lines in a circle pattern.These three common cases cover all the most common power schemes for traction substations. …”

An Evolutionary Deep Reinforcement Learning-Based Framework for Efficient Anomaly Detection in Smart Power Distribution Grids by Mohammad Mehdi Sharifi Nevisi, Mehrdad Shoeibi, Francisco Hernando-Gallego, Diego Martín, Sarvenaz Sadat Khatami

“…Conventional detection methods often struggle with adaptability, generalization, and real-time decision-making, leading to high false alarm rates and inefficient fault detection. To address these challenges, this study proposes a novel deep reinforcement learning (DRL)-based framework, integrating a convolutional neural network (CNN) for hierarchical feature extraction and a recurrent neural network (RNN) for sequential pattern recognition and time-series modeling. …”
