Abstract

This paper describes the effect of distributed generations (DG) on the bus protection scheme. When the generating capacity of DG is larger than 3 MVA totally, DG are generally connected to the 22.9 kV bus directly with the dedicated line. Due to the fault current contribution of DG, the overcurrent protective relay that have conventional set value cannot detect the fault occurred in distribution power network with DG. Therefore. the impacts from interconnection of DG on the overcurrent protective relay for bus protection should be accurately assessed and mitigated. Simulation results show that it would be necessary to modify the overcurrent protective relay set value for protecting the bus according to the generating capacity of DG.
