Abstract
The paper proposes and exemplifies how to use the fuzzy logic in the critical analysis of the faults including abnormal workings, for the most important elements in Power Systems. An original fuzzy logic-system enables us to analyze the qualitative evaluation of an Electric Transformer Protection System. A fuzzy event-tree allows the use of verbal statement for probabilities and consequences, such as very high, moderate and low probability. The technique is used for quantitative results computing, as "General Safety Degree" associated to all the paths in the tree. The paper focuses on the “General Safety Degree” algorithm. The application of fuzzy logic system is further demonstrated for a case study. A complex software tool named “Fuzzy Event Tree Analysis” had to be elaborated on this purpose.
