Abstract

The physical environment around transmission lines plays a major role in the resulting reliability of the power network. The inclusion of weather in the failure and repair process will lead to realistic modelling of the power network. This article suggests a modelling methodology to take into account weather-related failures. Besides a maintenance management strategy using dynamic programming, it is suggested to minimizing the cost of maintenance while accounting for weather-related failures. The data obtained from 220kV Transmission lines from Goa, India, is used to stochastically model the phenomenon. A three-state weather model is suggested, and accordingly the failure and repair phenomenon are segregated and stochastically modelled. Time-varying expressions for computing the availability in each weather condition is computed. This model can be used by the power utilities to realistically model weather-related failures.
