Popis: Abstract Transmission is an important aspect regarding an effective designing of electric supply system. Ensuring reliable and fault-free transmission from the source for effective distribution to the end consumers is very much desirable. In this respect, fast and accurate fault detection, particularly in the overhead transmission lines, is very pertinent. Various algorithms and novel approaches have been formulated by various researchers aligned to this challenge. In this context, a new algorithm influenced by the biotic procedure of flight skills of hummingbird seems to be one of the best algorithms to address the cited problem. This paper focuses on the formulation of this Artificial Hummingbird Algorithm (AHA) and its high accuracy in ameliorating the fault location in transmission line. The most common flight skills being used in the algorithm are foraging schemes, which includes axial, diagonal, and omnidirectional flights. The proposed AHA has been tested using the Simulink prototype in MATLAB for an overhead transmission line having a length of 300 km and system voltage of 400 kV at suitable lengths. Specimen signal of voltages and currents waveforms has been taken at duo ends of the overhead transmission line. The results of the proposed algorithm have been compared with the results obtained from previous studies, and it has been observed that this algorithm yields better results for various kinds of asymmetrical and symmetrical faults.
