Detecting the linear and non-linear causal links for disturbances in the power grid

Abstract

Unscheduled power disturbances cause severe consequences for customers and grid operators. To avoid suchevents, it is important to identify the causes and localize the sources of the disturbances in the power distribution network. In this work, we focus on a specific power grid in the Arctic region of Northern Norway that experiences an increased frequency of failures of unspecified origin.
