Abstract	The growing need for stable and efficient smart grids has emphasized the importance of advanced fault detection methods. This study focuses on the development and simulation of a SCADA (Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition) system for detecting faults in smart grids using MATLAB. The system continuously monitors electrical parameters, identifies faults in real-time, and provides status updates through a Human-Machine Interface (HMI). Distinct types of faults, such as line-to-ground and line-to-line, were simulated and accurately detected with quick response times. The simulation results show that SCADA-based fault detection improves grid reliability, minimizes downtime, and enhances operational decision-making. This project offers a strong basis for advancing automation and resilience in future smart grids.
