Electrical fault classification is vital for ensuring the reliability and safety of power systems. Accurate and efficient fault classification methods are essential for timely and effective maintenance. In this paper, we propose a novel approach for effective fault classification through Grassmann manifolds, which is a non-Euclidean space that captures the intrinsic structure of high-dimensional data and offers a robust framework for feature extraction. We use simulated data for electrical distribution systems with various types of electrical faults. The proposed method involves transforming the measurement fault data into Grassmann manifold space using techniques from differential geometry. This transformation aids in uncovering the underlying fault patterns and reducing the computational complexity of subsequent classification steps. To achieve fault classification, we employ a machine learning technique optimized for the Grassmann manifold. The support vector machine classifier is adapted to operate within the Grassmann manifold space, enabling effective discrimination between different fault classes. The results illustrate the efficacy of the proposed Grassmann manifold-based approach for electrical fault classification which showcases its ability to accurately differentiate between various fault types.
