Summary: Automatic power quality disturbance (PQD) classification is a challenging task for industry and utility. This work presents an algorithm for classifying the PQDs based on the combination of novel feature selection with machine learning (ML) techniques. In this work, discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is utilized to decompose the PQD signals and hence minimize the size of input vectors with multi‐resolution analysis. Novel optimal feature selection‐based classification is performed using probabilistic neural network and adaptive Arrhenius artificial bee colony (PNN‐ adaptive AABC) algorithm. The selection of optimal features may discard the redundant features and retain the useful features. Also, this adaptive AABC algorithm provides a higher convergence rate, and this is used for accurate feature selection since this work is applied for 16 PQD events. In other case, features extracted with DWT are processed and trained with various ML algorithms such as Decision Tree, support vector machine (SVM), and K‐nearest neighbor (KNN). Finally, the comparison accuracy of the proposed classifier is compared with the existing classifiers. The proposed technique found to give improved results in most of the cases like accuracy, prediction speed, and training time, and the outcomes acquired as 99.98%, ~1260 obs/seconds, and 13.113 seconds, respectively.
