The paper demonstrates how artificial neural networks can be used for the online detection of interturn faults on the rotor of an alternator. A simple network has been designed and tested on a laboratory micromachine. The tests have shown that by employing a neural network to predict the field current from measurements at the stator terminals, operation with a faulted rotor can be successfully identified.
