Abstract

The frequency of typhoons in China has gradually increased, resulting in serious damage to low-voltage power grid lines. Therefore, it is of great significance to study the influencing factors and predict the amount of damage, which contributes to enhancing wind resistance and improving the efficiency of repairs. In this paper, 18 influencing factors with a correlation degree higher than 0.75 are selected by grey correlation analysis, and then converted into six common factors by factor analysis. Additionally, an extreme learning machine optimized by an improved gravitational search algorithm, hereafter referred to as IGSA-ELM, is established to predict the damage caused to the low-voltage lines by typhoons and verify the effectiveness of the factor analysis. The results reveal that the six common factors generated by factor analysis can effectively improve the prediction accuracy and the fitting effect of IGSA-ELM is better than those of the extreme learning machine (ELM) and the extreme learning machine based on particle swarm optimization (PSO-ELM). Finally, this article proposes valid policy recommendations to improve the anti-typhoon capacity and repair efficiency of the low-voltage lines in Guangdong Province.
