| contents | Electrical faults may trigger blackouts or wildfires without timely monitoring and control strategy. Traditional solutions for locating faults in distribution systems are not real-time when network observability is low, while novel black-box machine learning methods are vulnerable to stochastic environments. We propose a novel Physics-Preserved Graph Network (PPGN) architecture to accurately locate faults at the node level with limited observability and labeled training data. PPGN has a unique two-stage graph neural network architecture. The first stage learns the graph embedding to represent the entire network using a few measured nodes. The second stage finds relations between the labeled and unlabeled data samples to further improve the location accuracy. We explain the benefits of the two-stage graph configuration through a random walk equivalence. We numerically validate the proposed method in the IEEE 123-node and 37-node test feeders, demonstrating the superior performance over three baseline classifiers when labeled training data is limited, and loads and topology are allowed to vary. |
