چکیده
This paper proposes the possible effect on the reduction of fault current and its protective coordination for upcoming smart grid. Fault levels in electrical distribution system are rising due to the increasing presence of distributed generation, and this rising trend is expected to continue in the future. Superconducting fault current limiter is a promising electrical equipment to reduce the excessive fault current in electrical power system effectively. This paper describes the optimal positioning of SFCL for which a resistive type SFCL model was implemented and protective coordination was investigated. In addition a typical smart grid model including a distributed generation of Photovoltaic model was designed to determine the performance of SFCL.

Designing and Analysis of Power System with SFCL Module
In most highly developed electrical power system, there are several difficulties related from generation to distribution. Usually, power generation is located at remote area from the load center. Long transmission and distribution lines have to be constructed and maintained to meet required reliability, power quality and economic point of views. Reliable, cheap, efficient conductor is required ...
متن کاملAnalysis on protection coordination of protective devices with a fault current limiter in the application location of a dispersed generation
As one of the solution of the increase problem of the fault current in a power system, the superconducting fault current limiter (SFCL) has been noticed as the attractive device because it has no power loss in a normal time and can limit the fault current rapidly without additional device to detect the fault current. However, the introduction of the SFCL in a power distribution system affects t...

Protection of radial distribution networks is widely based on coordinated inverse time overcurrent relays (OCRs) ensuring both effectiveness and selectivity. However, the integration of distributed generation (DG) into an existing distribution network not only inevitably increases fault current levels to levels that may exceed the OCR ratings, but it may also disturb the original overcurrent re...
