Condition assessment of underground cable system based on fuzzy logic and machine learning methods
Abstract:
In this research, the overall health index of underground cable system is determined using Fuzzy Logic method and machine learning technique known as Random Forest method. The relevant data of 73 feeders has been collected in the prepared evaluation forms, divided into five major component groups: cable, joint, termination, manhole, and duct bank. In each component, various testing methods and diagnostic techniques are applied, and then the numerical score is determined according to the technical criteria for condition assessment. Subsequently, the obtained overall health index is multiplied with the conditional factor to incorporate the differences in installation type and configuration as well as the operating and environmental conditions. Finally, the overall health index based on these two methods is compared to verify the accuracy of the obtained results with the conventional weighting and scoring method to properly plan the preventive and condition-based maintenance and to improve the reliability of the underground cable system.
