Current Limiter

The increase in demand for electric power and the insertion of a distributed generation led to the rise of the short-circuit current in substations. Most of these Brazilian substations were designed decades ago, because of that their equipment may not support the new short-circuit current levels. To protect the installed equipment and avoid excessive costs replacing old devices, it is possible to install Fault Current Limiters (FCLs). This document is a report from an R&D project that evaluated FCL topologies considering real parameters in simulation from used equipment, concluding that the selected FCL topologies accomplished their technical objective. However, before implementing these topologies in the distribution system, one should consider the technical and economic feasibility of using semiconductor switching devices.

This paper explores the impacts of multiple embedded generators penetration on distribution system behavior. For this rationale, a IEEE-13 bus distribution feeder was modeled and investigates by assimilating different types of embedded generation (EG) sources. Different scenarios were implemented in which WIND, SOFC FUEL CELL, SOLAR and MICRO TURBINE plants were modeled with high variability of load and generation to observe their impacts on system’s protection, unsymmetrical faults also consider observing impacts effectively. To eradicate the impacts on distribution system with presence of EG’s and distribution system undergone in the event of faults, in this paper primarily reverse power due to EG integration is estimated and sensed with reverse power relay, Further two types of Superconducting Fault Current Limiters Passive resonance CB (PRCB) SFCL and Inverse current injection CB (I-CB are proposed and results are compared for amended solution in mitigating fault current magnitude and over voltages, Finally penetrations levels are computed mathematically and All the modeling and simulations were carried out using MATLAB SIMULINK tool.

Overcurrent Relay

The increased availability of protections of distributed system is a major role by ensuring the continuity of electrical power supply. The optimization process for a distributed system is to coordinate with overcurrent relay protection with adaptive overcurrent relay model. Here the protection of the system is an important factor since the protection methods play a vital role in distributed systems. The conventional methods discussed the current in the power system to reduce the fault current tolerance value by using various optimization algorithms like Antlion and Butterfly optimization techniques. The distributed three-phase system uses the IEEE bus network with adaptive overcurrent relay model, which produces the best output as compared to the conventional method. Here the particle swarm optimization (C-SBO) procedure is used to improve the relay setting and it reduces the fault current across the relay.
