Abstract :
Focuses on the specific issue of machinery health and availability of individual power generating units on a power distribution grid while emphasizing the automatic load dispatch and control in electric power distribution systems. This concept of life extending control and health management is incorporated into the decision-making process of a remotely located control center. The goal is to improve efficiency and availability of the entire grid. Fuzzy logic is used to realize an availability-improving controller for load dispatch
