Abstract
Technologies are provided for circuit topology detection in an electric power circuit. In some embodiments, a computing device can access phasor data associated with the electric power circuit including an arrangement of switching devices and multiple phasor measurement units. The computing device also can access threshold data defining individualized zero-current threshold values for respective ones of the multiple phasor measurement units. The computing device can determine one or more zero-current branches present in the arrangement of switching devices by applying the individualized zero-current thresholds to the accessed phasor data. The computing device can further determine, based on the one or more zero-current branches a circuit topology corresponding to the arrangement of switching devices.
