This paper reports on the development of integrated protection for power system. The background of the development is firstly introduced, in which a centralized protection system (or relay) provides the protection of multiple power plant or a substation. A novel integrated protection scheme for distribution system based on overcurrent protection technique is described. In the proposed scheme, s...

The presence of a significant DG capacity in distribution networks will result in some conflicts with the operation of the system, mainly because, unlike the meshed transmission system, the distribution system is usually designed as a “passive” radial system. In general, the impact of DG depends on its penetration level in distribution network as well as on DG technology (e.g. synchronous gener...

This paper mainly deals the impact of relays on feeder protection also different factors used to control the active power, reactive power, power reversals, fault current magnitude and balancing condition of power system to protect the distribution system. when Distributed Generation sources are integrated in to the grid above all problems are occurs along with the feeder voltage regulation and ...

Recently, smart grids have been considered as one of the vital elements in upgrading current power systems to a system with more reliability and efficiency. Distributed generation is necessary for most of these new networks. Indeed, in all cases that DGs are used in distribution systems, protection coordination failures may occur in multiple configurations of smart grids using DGs. In different...

-The penetration of DGs would drastically affect the traditional distribution power system fault current level and the characteristics of fault currents, consequently, the traditional protection arrangements developed in radial systems are difficult in coordination, and also the reclosing scheme would be affected. With the rapid developments in distribution system automation and communication t...
