Evaluation of dynamic characteristics of power grid based on GNN and application on knowledge graph

A novel method for detecting faults in power grids using a graph neural network (GNN) has been developed, aimed at enhancing intelligent fault diagnosis in network operation and maintenance. This GNN-based approach identifies faulty nodes within the power grid through a specialized electrical feature extraction model coupled with a knowledge graph. Incorporating temporal data, the method leverages the status of nodes from preceding and subsequent time periods to aid in current fault detection. To validate the effectiveness of this GNN in extracting node features, a correlation analysis of the output features from each node within the neural network layer was conducted. The results from experiments show that this method can accurately locate fault nodes in simulated scenarios with a remarkable 99.53% accuracy. Additionally, the graph neural network's feature modeling allows for a qualitative examination of how faults spread across nodes, providing valuable insights for analyzing fault nodes.
