To address the fault identification challenge in distribution networks, a method leveraging a mixture of the von Mises–Fisher (mov-MF) distribution model for fault probability identification is proposed. Initially, the synchronous phasor measuring unit is employed to gather the post-fault steady-state voltage phase quantities, and then, the voltage phase angle values are combined to form a three-dimensional feature quantity. Subsequently, the mov-MF distribution model is initialized through the spherical K-means algorithm and the minimum message length algorithm. This model is further refined via the expectation–maximization algorithm to iteratively optimize distribution parameters. The test set data are input into the mov-MF distribution model, which has been constructed using typical fault data, to discern fault types. Finally, the efficacy of the proposed method is validated through simulation verification conducted on the IEEE 33-node distribution system. The analysis of the examples demonstrates the accuracy of the mov-MF distribution model-based fault identification method in identifying single-phase ground, two-phase ground, two-phase interphase, and three-phase short-circuit faults.
1 Introduction
The requirements for ensuring power supply quality and reliability of modern distribution networks as the terminal facing users are gradually increasing (Sheng et al., 2023). Currently, the main grounding methods for distribution networks in China are either ungrounded neutral points or grounding through arc suppression coils. Due to the complex structure of distribution networks, various types of faults are likely to occur in practical operation. Single-phase grounding short circuit is the most common type of short circuit fault. If the short circuit is caused by the contact between the line and tree branches or the ground, the transient resistance of this short circuit is high, resulting in a weak fault electrical quantity that is difficult to detect, thereby affecting the normal operation of the distribution network. When faults occur in distribution networks, the primary task is to identify the faults. Therefore, efficient and reliable methods for fault identification in distribution networks are of great significance for the safe operation of distribution networks (Peng et al., 2023).
Zhu et al. (2020) utilized current, voltage, and power data at the maximum power point in the time domain as feature quantities, combined with Pearson’s coefficient similarity and relative Euclidean distance deviation for fault-type differentiation. Jiang et al. (2021) used dynamic time warping (DTW) similarity and electrical volume data sequence similarity, and the combination of both inputs into a classifier significantly outperformed single features. Zhang et al. (2022a) proposed a waveform similarity-based identification method to construct two reconstructed currents by comparing the one-dimensional time-domain sampled values of the currents at the two ends of a transmission line and used the Kendall’s tau coefficient (KTC) waveform similarity algorithm to achieve reliable fault identification. Zhang et al. (2022b) proposed a sparse representation method based on one-dimensional time-domain current signals to construct a fault feature dictionary and calculate the feature residuals to determine the fault category. Liu et al. (2020) built a support vector machine model for high-resistance grounding fault identification using time-domain current-voltage magnitude and frequency as features. Ghaemi et al. (2022) used an integrated learning approach combined with multiple classifiers to accurately identify the fault type and location using one-dimensional time-domain voltage and current measurements, which maintains high classification accuracy even in the presence of measurement errors.
In contrast to the previous paper, which proposes to judge the fault type by constructing the signal similarity or deviation value as a one-dimensional feature quantity, another class of methods automatically proposes multi-dimensional feature quantities and makes the fault-type judgment through intelligent algorithms. Yang and Yu (2022) used a discrete wavelet transform to decompose three-phase voltage and zero-sequence sequences and constructed multidimensional time–frequency matrices to input into the ResNet network, which improved the effect of fault-type identification in distribution networks. Xingquan et al. (2022) converted the time-domain three-phase voltage and current data during faults into a multidimensional time–frequency spectral gray scale map, combined with SVM and a deep convolutional neural network, to improve the accuracy of high-resistance fault classification. Biswas et al. (2023) used variational mode decomposition (VMD) to quickly extract different frequency components of the fault current signal, which is input into the CNN for fault-type identification in the frequency domain to shorten the detection time and ensure the accuracy. Azizi and Seker (2022) processed the current time-domain signal through the Hilbert–Huang transform, formed the multidimensional feature quantity of the frequency-domain signal combination under different frequencies, and used BrownBoost algorithm to classify the data space, which improved the accuracy of fault-type classification. Feng et al. (2022) used the linear discriminant analysis (LDA) algorithm to incorporate the frequency-domain optimal fault features, which constitute two-dimensional and three-dimensional feature quantities, into the Bayesian classification model based on the kernel distribution to achieve fault location identification, in which the three-dimensional feature quantities are better than the two-dimensional feature quantities.
The fault identification methods mentioned in the literature can be broadly categorized into two types:
1. Extraction of time-domain electrical quantities: In this category, time-domain electrical quantities such as voltage and current amplitudes are extracted as one-dimensional features to represent fault types. Fault identification is achieved through methods such as constructing similarity or deviation values and comparing them against thresholds.
2. Time-frequency transformation methods: This category involves transforming the collected time-domain signals into multidimensional time–frequency matrices or forming grayscale images using time–frequency transformation methods. Intelligent algorithms are then employed to automatically extract multidimensional feature sets for fault type identification, resulting in improved accuracy compared to the first category. However, establishing time–frequency matrices or forming grayscale images requires complex preprocessing of time-domain signals, leading to longer computation times. Compared to one-dimensional features, multidimensional feature sets contain richer fault information and exhibit better classification performance. It is worth noting that the signals processed in the literature mostly consist of phasor magnitudes, overlooking the fault information contained in phase angles.
Wang et al. (2021a) utilized an improved VMD combined with fuzzy c-means (FCM) to achieve classification and identification of rolling bearing fault types through FCM clustering. Qi et al. (2021) utilized the von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution combined with the standard Euclidean distance to analyze the similarity between different samples for sample selection. Initialization of different groups requires pre-setting a lower limit for the grouping values but does not implement merging of similar groups. Chen et al. (2015) proposed the combination of the expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm and the v-MF algorithm. By selecting the positioning data on crystal positions to form a v-MF distribution and using cosine similarity as the clustering basis, crystal-type identification is carried out. However, the consideration for the number of groups in mixed distributions is not addressed. Garcia-Fernandez et al. (2019) utilizes the v-MF distribution to construct Gaussian filters for target direction measurement. Angle information is used to form two-dimensional and three-dimensional vectors for tracking target directions, but the establishment of distributions for multiple targets is not implemented. Data clustering is a fundamental step in data analysis. The application of von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution-based clustering methods has shown good utility in sample selection (Qi et al., 2021), crystal-type identification (Chen et al., 2015), direction measurement tracking (Garcia-Fernandez et al., 2019), and other areas.
1.1 Contributions
The main contributions of this paper are summarized below.
• In this paper, we propose a probabilistic fault identification method based on the mixed von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution. The mov-MF distribution of sample data is established, and fault probability is calculated by integrating the data to be measured into the established mov-MF distribution. Fault-type identification is then achieved based on the resulting probability magnitude. The biggest innovation of the mov-MF-based probabilistic fault identification method for distribution networks proposed in this paper is the fault-type identification by establishing the clustering distribution of 3D vector data on the spherical space. In power systems, there are a large number of 3D vectors, so the method is suitable for power system data analysis. Compared with the two types of fault identification methods introduced in the previous paper, the method proposed in this paper can make the accuracy of fault identification higher by using 3D vectors; the use of 3D eigenvectors in the time domain to establish the mov-MF distribution without complex data preprocessing makes the algorithm more concise, ensures accuracy, and at the same time, improves the computational efficiency.
• To establish the mixed von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution of sample data more accurately, we employ the spherical K-means algorithm and minimum message length (MML) for parameter initialization. Subsequently, these parameters are iteratively optimized using the expectation–maximization (EM) algorithm to refine the accuracy of the mov-MF distribution parameters. We validate this approach through simulations conducted on an IEEE 33-node distribution system, where various fault conditions are set. The test results are compared with those reported in Xingquan et al. (2022) and Azizi and Seker (2022). Our findings demonstrate that the proposed method achieves accurate fault-type identification. Moreover, the acquisition of feature vectors is simplified, and the accuracy is comparable to that of the comparison method. Importantly, our method exhibits robust performance across different fault conditions, highlighting its broad applicability.

Due to the implicit equation involving the ratio of Bessel functions in the calculation process of the above expression, it is impossible to obtain an exact analytical solution directly.

3 Steps for designing the fault identification model based on mov-MF distribution
3.1 Data preprocessing and dataset construction
The fault signals of the distribution network are acquired and combined to form a three-dimensional vector
3.2 Calculation of the parameters of the mov-MF distribution
As the EM algorithm is needed to establish the mov-MF distribution, there is an important problem that in the case of the known distribution
3.2.1 mov-MF model parameter initialization
The mov-MF parameters are computed by initializing the spherical K-means algorithm, updating the parameters by the EM algorithm, and determining whether the optimality is reached based on the cosine similarity
Initialization is performed using the spherical K-means algorithm (Mashal and Hosseini, 2015), where the
In order to realize the classification of different data points, the distance metric between different points on the unit hypersphere is defined, which can be mainly categorized into Euclidean distance, Manhattan distance, cosine distance, and correlation distance, etc., depending on the clustering requirements. Jianyuan et al. (2023) explained the rationality of using cosine similarity as a distance metric for clustering. Therefore, we choose to calculate the cosine similarity
Thus, the cluster label to which each data point belongs is determined based on the similarity of the data point to the initial cluster center.
From this, we obtain the center of each cluster
3.2.2 mov-MF model group score determination
On the basis of step a), the group score of the sample data is determined by the MML algorithm, and according to the log-likelihood
When the mov-MF model group scores are determined, then the EM algorithm is used to estimate the mixture distribution parameters, i.e., the mixture distribution weights and the parameters for each subgroup. Thus, we need to determine the optimal number of subgroups for the mixture distribution and the corresponding distribution parameters.
Therefore, the minimum message length (MML) algorithm is used for group score

4 Example analysis
In order to verify the effectiveness of the fault identification method based on the mov-MF model proposed in this paper, simulation experiments are carried out in MATLAB/Simulink on the IEEE33 node 10-kV distribution system, as shown in Figure 3, to obtain the fault sample data.
4.1 Sample data
Fault points are set between nodes 8–9, 13–14, 18–19, and 23–24, respectively, where nodes 20–21, 11–17, 22–24, and 29–32 are connected by overhead lines, and the rest of the lines are connected by cables, and the parameters of each sequence of the overhead lines and cables are shown in Table 1, line model parameters (Wang et al., 2021b). The system is a 10-kV distribution network. It is set up with transformer grounding methods that are neutral ungrounded and neutral grounded via arcing coil(0.8697H). Only one of the above fault parameters is changed in each simulation, and the duration of each type of fault is 0.1 s. The synchronized phase data are collected using a PMU, and a measuring device is installed at each node, with an update interval of 10 m and a sampling frequency of 6.4 kHz. A total of 560 sets of fault samples are generated, of which 420 sets comprise the training set and 140 sets comprise the test set. The fault conditions are neutral ungrounded; neutral grounded via arcing coil; transition resistance 0Ω, 1Ω, 10Ω, and 1000Ω and has access to distributed power; and the abovementioned seven conditions are grouped into four fault points for single-phase grounded short-circuit faults (AG,BG,CG), two-phase grounded short-circuit faults (ABG,BCG,ACG), three-phase short-circuit faults, and two-phase interphase short-circuit faults (AB,BC,AC); 80 fault samples are generated for each group, and 33 data points are obtained for each set of data, and the mov-MFs are established, respectively, under different conditions.
Based on the principle in Section 3.1, the vector dataset suitable for building the mov-MF model is constructed. In the mov-MF model, the main judgment basis for fault-type identification is the average direction
The feature vectors extracted from the typical sample fault dataset are used as initial vectors for L2 normalization to obtain the normalized
4.2 Type identification under different fault conditions
After establishing the mov-MF distribution model based on the historical sample fault dataset, the simulation is then carried out according to different fault conditions, and the test dataset of a particular fault is mixed into the history set of the mov-MF model for different conditions completed in Section 4.1 based on the historical samples for identification in each test.
4.2.1 Different transformer grounding methods
The purpose of changing the transformer grounding method is to verify the applicability of the fault identification method proposed in this paper under this condition. The simulation model is a 10-kV distribution network model, so two small current grounding methods are set. The compensation method of the arc-canceling coil is set to be over-compensation, and the simulation is carried out. Fault-type identification is carried out by establishing the mov-MF model, and the mov-MF model established according to the positive-, negative, and zero-sequence phases is shown in Figure 4.
The small current grounding method does not have much effect on the positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence voltage phase angles, and the obtained mov-MF distributions are similar. Eighty sets of test datasets are mixed into the obtained mov-MF distributions for different neutral grounding methods, and the labeling results are used to determine whether the classification is correct or not. The typical data mean direction matrix when the neutral point is not grounded is:
According to the average direction of typical faults, the cosine similarity was calculated between the test data set and the average direction of a certain type of fault, the probability of belonging to that type of fault was also calculated according to the number of data point labels, and the type of fault with the highest probability was selected to judge that it belongs to that type of fault. The A-phase short-circuit grounding fault was taken as an example under the condition of neutral ungrounded, and the fault probability
The overall accuracy results for the 40 test sets are shown in Table 2.
Transformer neutral point through the arcing coil grounding will limit the fault phase current. The method proposed in this paper does not have much impact, so the 10-kV distribution network applicable to the small current grounding method is applicable to this method.
4.2.2 Fault transition resistance impact analysis
Changing the transition resistance when the fault occurs, the transition resistors with sizes of 0Ω, 1Ω, 10Ω, and 1000Ω are selected, and simulation experiments are carried out by changing the fault type and the initial phase angle of the fault at different fault locations. The mov-MF model is established for fault type identification, and the mov-MF model is also established according to the positive and negative zero sequence phases as shown in Figure 6.
Varying the transition resistance size, the mov-MF distributions are different due to the fact that 0Ω, 1Ω, and 10Ω all differ from 1000Ω, but the expected results can still be achieved for type differentiation under each condition. The 160 sets of test datasets are mixed into the obtained mov-MF distributions for different neutral grounding methods, and the labeling results are used to determine whether the classification is correct or not. The typical data mean direction matrix for a transition resistance of 0Ω is:
The A-phase short-circuit ground fault under the condition of 0Ω transition resistance is taken as an example, and the fault probability
The judgment process is the same as shown in section IV.B.a), and the results of 80 sets of test data are shown in Table 3.
When a single-phase high-resistance grounded short-circuit occurs, the transition resistance will have a certain effect on the fault phase voltage amplitude, and for positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence phase angles, the transition resistance does not have much effect, so the fault-type identification accuracy is not affected under the condition of different fault transition resistances, and it still maintains a high accuracy rate.
4.2.3 Impact analysis of connecting to distributed power sources
DG is connected at nodes 17, 21, 24, and 32, and DG is a 1.5 kW/230 V PV power supply. The transformer grounding method is selected as neutral ungrounded, and the transition resistance is 0 Ω. Simulation experiments are carried out by changing the fault types at different locations. Fault type identification is carried out by establishing a mov-MF model, and the mov-MF model established according to the positive and negative zero sequence phasors is shown in Figure 8.
After accessing the distributed power supply, the impact on the vectors we use to build the mov-MF distribution will not be significant, so the obtained mov-MF distribution is similar to the previous distribution and still differentiates between different types of faults based on the feature vectors. The 10 sets of test datasets are mixed into the obtained mov-MF distribution, and the labeling results are used to judge whether the classification is correct or not. The typical data mean direction matrix after accessing the DG is:
Take the example of a short-circuit ground fault in phase A after connecting to the DG, and calculate the fault probability
The judgment process is the same as shown in section IV.B.a, and the results of 20 sets of test data are shown in Table 4.
After accessing the distributed power supply, the fault current and voltage amplitude will slightly increase when a fault occurs compared with when it is not connected. For positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence voltage phase angles, access to distributed power supply has little effect on it; as a feature vector can still establish a clearly classified hybrid v MF distribution, the accuracy of fault-type identification is not affected, and the accuracy rate is still high.
4.2.4 Comparative analysis of different algorithms
The algorithm proposed in this paper is compared with the existing algorithms, and in Table 4, with the ensemble algorithm of multilayer classifiers (Ghaemi et al., 2022), the CNN–SVM algorithm (Xingquan et al., 2022), and the BrownBoost–HHT algorithm (Azizi and Seker, 2022), and compared with the algorithms that make use of the one-dimensional feature quantities, there is an improvement in the fault identification rate for two-phase short circuits, two-phase inter-phase, and three-phase short circuits; compared with the fault identification methods that make use of intelligent algorithms, the mov MF distribution of the three-dimensional feature quantity established by the algorithm proposed in this paper is simpler in the model, and the algorithm is clearer. The acquisition of the feature quantity is simpler, and the accuracy of fault-type identification is comparable to the algorithm.
The comprehensive analysis of Table 5 shows that the accuracy of fault-type identification using the method based on the mov-MF distribution is slightly lower than other types of faults when single-phase ground faults and three-phase grounding faults occur. When establishing the mov-MF distribution, a dataset consisting of phase angle values of positive-, negative-, and zero-sequence voltages is chosen, and the mov-MF distribution is able to extract the average direction of the same type of fault vectors as a feature value based on the vector data, so we carry out the fault-type identification based on this characteristic.
4.2.5 Simulation test time
The methodology in this paper needs to be applied with consideration of the required hardware base and the time-consuming identification work. As an example, the running time of the MATLAB fault classification program is analyzed to test the time taken to identify different types of faults under ungrounded neutral conditions, and the proposed methodology is applied to identify a single fault. The test hardware is a conventional mainstream PC with AMD Ryzen-5,000 processor and 16 GB RAM, and the time required to build the mov-MF distribution under these conditions is approximately 15 s. When a fault occurs, the probabilistic identification method of distribution network based on hybrid v-MF can achieve classification judgment within 1 s, which is a rapid response, and has engineering application significance and practical value.
5 Conclusion
This paper introduces a novel method for fault-type identification in distribution networks utilizing a mixed von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution. The method involves constructing three-dimensional feature quantities derived from the positive, negative-, and zero-sequence voltage phase angles observed at the time of the fault. Subsequently, the mov-MF distribution is generated to classify the fault type based on the integration of current data with historical distributions. Consequently, the following conclusions can be drawn:
In this paper, we propose a method for fault-type identification utilizing 3D direction vectors to construct a mixed von Mises–Fisher (v-MF) distribution. By leveraging the positive–negative–zero-sequence voltage phasors associated with various fault types, we establish the mov-MF distribution using sample data from diverse fault scenarios. The probability that the faults under test belong to different fault types is estimated by discerning the discrepancy between the mean directions of distinct fault types. Consequently, our method achieves fault-type identification with high accuracy.
The method proposed in this paper remains unaffected by changes in neutral grounding mode, fault transition resistance, and variations in fault locations. It exhibits robust applicability under diverse working conditions.
