The market of domestic Power Plant Generator Protection and Control System (GPCS) is narrow and required the high reliability, and technology. So, it is still operated as turn-key. In recent years, digital relays has evolved into IED can perform the control and monitoring functions without central monitoring based on IEC61850 international standards communications, and attention for advancement of smart grid and ECMS has been increased in South Korea. The increasing attention on multi-function IED, DGPS(digital generator protection system), for internal fault protection of large generator results in starting a national project in South Korea, the IED prototype development for next-generation power units. The voltage restrained overcurrent relay have been used as back-up overcurrent protection for generators. In this paper, voltage restrained overcurrent relay is one of the back-up protective factors in generator protection IED was presented. For evaluation performance of the voltage restrained overcurrent relay, the data of ATPDraw5.7p4 modeling was used.

This paper proposes the new adaptive protection algorithm for inverse-time overcurrent relays (OCRs) to ensure their proper operating time and protective coordination. The application of the proposed algorithm requires digital protection relays with microcontroller and memory. The operating parameters of digital OCRs are adjusted based on the available data whenever system conditions (system with distributed generation (DG)) vary. Moreover, it can reduce the calculation time required to determine the operating parameters for achieving its purpose. To verify its effectiveness, several case studies are performed in time-domain simulation. The results show that the proposed adaptive protection algorithm can keep the proper operating time and provide the protective coordination time interval with fast response.

A new vertical power MOSFET with over-current protection capability is proposed. The MOSFET consists of main power MOSFET cell, sensing MOSFET cell and lateral npn bipolar transistor. The proposed MOSFET may be fabricated by a conventional DMOS process without any additional fabrication step. Overcurrent state is sensed by the newly designed lateral bipolar transistor. Mixed-mode simulations proved that the overcurrent protection is achieved by the proposed MOSFET successfully with a small protection area less than 0.2 % of the total die area.

The relay protection engineers are sometimes faced with the difficulties in full protection of high-inertia drive motors during acceleration period. The problem results from lower permitted locked rotor time of the motor compared with motor starting time. Even though the various types of protection relay and other device (Speed switch, Distance relay) are used, the full protections against abnormal starting conditions may not be available. So, the development of a new speed-biased overcurrent relay is suggested in this paper. This paper also presents that speed-biased overcurrent relay can fully protect the high-inertia motor during abnormal starting condition by computer simulation.

This paper presents an adaptive overcurrent relay applied to interconnecting wind generators in distribution networks. When a fault occurs in the case of the decreasing the wind power generator output, the conventional overcurrent relay can't detect the fault. The suggested adaptive overcurrent relay can detect. An adaptive overcurrent relay improves reliability and security of the power system protection with distributed generator APSCAD/EMTDC simulation results have shown effectiveness of the proposed method.

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.

This paper presents a new protection concept to achieve the adaptive optimal function by introducing the multi-agent system technology. Making each relay an agent which consists of relay agent module and coordinator module, each agent works autonomously to improve protection capability by cooperating with other agents. It is applied to the overcurrent protection system of the industrial power system in order to show the feasibility of the proposed methodology.

With the high penetration of various sustainable energy sources, the control and protection of Microgrids has become a challenging problem considering the inherent current limitation feature of inverter-based Distributed Generators (DGs) and the bidirectional power flow in Microgrids. In this paper, a hybrid control and protection scheme is proposed, which combines the traditional inverse-time overcurrent protection with the biased differential protection for different feeders with different kinds of loads. It naturally accommodates various control strategies such as P-Q control and V-f control. The parameter settings of the protection scheme are analyzed and calculated through a fast Fourier transform algorithm, and the stability of the control strategy is discussed by building a small signal model in MATLAB. Different operation modes such as the grid-connected mode, the islanding mode, and the transitions between these two modes are ensured. A Microgrid model is established in PSCAD and the analysis results show that a Microgrid system can be effectively protected against different faults such as the single phase to ground and the three phase faults in both the grid-connected and islanded operation modes.

A protection algorithm using a voltage-controlled overcurrent element for a looped collection circuit in a wind farm is suggested in this paper. Because the proposed algorithm uses voltage relaying signals as well as current relaying signals, any fault in the looped collection circuit can be cleared by voltage-controlled overcurrent relays located at the two adjacent relaying points, the nearest place in each direction from the fault point. The algorithm can also distinguish the external faults which occur at the outside of a wind farm from the internal faults. It means that the proposed algorithm can provide the proper ability of protection coordination to the relays in the looped collection circuits of a large wind farm. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified under various fault conditions using PSCAD/EMTDC simulations.
