Abstract

In this paper, the application of Artificial intelligence (AI) methods in power systemprotection and inspection has been discussed. In this paper particularly AI application of linescout Robot is used. Line scout robot is an inspection based Artificial intelligence Robot. LineScout robot is able to work on the power lines while they are operating (at very high tension).The robot can patrol in a substation and inspect equipment with a visible-light camera andthermograph. It has possess a vast array of cameras and tools that allow the remote operatorsto inspect and conduct (albeit minor) repairs on the power lines without needing to put theoff-service or risking their lives. It is preventive arrangement for detection of fault (very hightemperature).Keywords: Artificial intelligence (AI), artificial general intelligence (AGI), corona pulse, LineScout Robot, power system
