Abstract: Faults occurring on electrical distribution network are unpredictable and needs to be cleared at the earliest so as to reduce power outage time. Hence fault detection and their classification plays important role. In this research paper the fault classification accuracy was measured for an electrical power distribution network with artificial neural network without using any signal processing method. Although many digital signal processing methods are developed to enhance electrical fault classification accuracy, it is essential to measure it for comparison when no signal processing method is used. Fault classification was considered as a pattern recognition application of neural networks. Two layer feed forward back propagation neural network was used as classifier. IEEE 13 bus distribution feeder was simulated in MATLAB with Simulink for collecting the input data. The simulation results show that the faults can be classified satisfactorily. L-G, L-L and L-L-L faults were simulated for measuring the accuracy of fault classification.
