文摘This paper studies an existing 13.8 kilovolt distribution network which, serves an oil production field spread over an area of approximately 60 kilometers square, in order to locate any fault that may occur anywhere in the network using fuzzy c-mean classification techniques. In addition, Sections 5 and 6 introduce two different methods for normalizing data and selecting the optimum number of clusters in order to classify data. Results and conclusions are given to show the feasibility for the suggested fault location method. Suggestion for future related research has been provided in Section 8.
