Since substations are structurally complex due to the concentration of protection coordination facilities with substation facilities for long distance power transmission, it is difficult to design a protection coordination system to minimize the spreading effect of the fault when a fault occurs on transmission line or distribution line. Therefore, in this paper, the bus configuration and the basic logic of protection coordination that have a major influence on the reliability of substation power supply were analyzed, and the substation protection coordination logic to detect internal and external faults was developed based on EMTP-RV. As the basic logic of substation protection coordination, the percent differential protection relay logic for substation internal fault detection and the overload protection relay logic for inference of external failure were modeled. Finally, the 154kV substation including the protection coordination logic was modeled using EMTP-RV, and the effectiveness of the protection coordination design methodology was confirmed through the several fault simulation cases based on EMTP-RV.

As an arc fault interrupter, the AFCI mentioned in this paper has been designed to detect and interrupt arc faults due to wire deterioration, insulation, wire damage, loose connection, and excessive mechanical damage. Since AFCI is digital and uses mechanical and electric stress, the length of interruption against overload and over-current is much shorter than the current bi-metal method. Therefore, the risk of electrical fires has been reduced.

The imprecise real-time scheduling can be used for minimizing the bad effects of timing faults by leaving less important tasks unfinished if necessary when a transient overload occured. In the imprecise scheduling, every time-critical task can be logically decomposed into two tasks : a mandatory task and an optional task. Recently, some studies in this field showed good schedulability performance and minimum total error by deferring the optional tasks. But the schedulability performance of the studies can be shown only when the execution time of each optional task was less than or equal to the execution time of its corresponding mandatory task. Therefore, in this paper, a new deferring strategy is proposed under the reverse execution time restriction to the previous studies. Nevertheless, the strategy produces comparable or superior schedulability performance to the previous studies and can minimize the total error also.
