L. %J Salesian Journal on Information Systems %D 2009 %I Faculdade Salesiana Maria Auxiliadora %X This paper introduces an application based on finite non-deterministic automata for power systems diagnosis. Automata for the simpler faults are presented and the proposed system is compared with an established expert system. %K Finite Automata %K Power Systems %K Fault Diagnosis %U http://www.fsma.edu.br/si/edicao3/automatos_finitos.pdf
