A large wind farm should satisfy the requirements for a grid and accomplish the optimization of the wind farm system. In that point of view, the wind farm intertie protection system, which must consider the Fault Ride-Through (FRT) requirement for more reliable protection, should be improved. This paper proposes a modified distance relay suitable for protection of a wind farm intertie considering a FRT requirement. The frequency change is used to discriminate the intertie fault from a outside zone fault. The performance of the proposed algorithm is verified using a PSCAD/EMTDC simulator.

Te digital simulation of electric power system is a very important tool that can decide a proper protection systems from the design of the systems. Protection systems base on the wrong simulation results can cause a serious danger in the stability of the power system. So, the power system makes for simulation and the actual power system must be maximumly homologized. In this paper, protection relay models used in actual systems were developed in the PSS/E.

When an emergency generator is running, it supplies the power for critical loads. Generator protection requires the consideration of many abnormal conditions that may occur with generators include overvoltages and ground faults. Modern day power systems create harmonics within the electrical network that can have an impact upon the associated protective system. This paper focuses on the analysing of the cause and development of a solution for the malfunction of induction disc type overcurrent ground relay by generation of harmonics during emergency generator operation.

This paper describes the current- based compact digital motor protective relay for low and high voltage induction motors, which are widely used in industrial and commercial power systems. The existing protective relays for motor protection had only overload, short circuit, reverse phase, open circuit and grounding protective elements, and measurement, start/stop control function. But in present day, for automation system, various functions are required, especially motor management and sequence control function and more. To meet these requirements, we developed an economic current-based compact digital motor protective relay which had various function to control, manage and monitor the induction motor.

This paper represents a new approach for the protective relay of power transmission lines using a Artificial Neural Network(ANN). A different fault on transmission lines need to be detected, classified and located accurately and cleared as fast as possible. However, The protection range of the distance relay is always designed on the basis of fixed settings, and unfortunately these approach do not have the ability to adapt dynamically to the system operating condition. ANN is suitable for the adaptive relaying and the detection of complex faults. The backpropagation algorithm based multi-layer perceptron is utilized for the learning process. It allows to make control to various protection functions. As expected, the simulation result demonstrate that this approach is useful and satisfactory.

This paper proposes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection with a compensation algorithm of a CT. The compensating algorithm estimates the core flux at the start of the first saturation based on the value of the third-difference of the secondary current. It calculates the core flux and compensates distorted currents in accordance with the magnetization curve. The test results indicate that the algorithm can discriminate internal faults from external faults when the CT saturates. It can improve not only stability of the relay in the case of an external fault but sensitivity of the relay in the case of an internal fault.

This paper presents a distance relaying algorithm for phase-to-ground faults in transmission lines under Multi-Agent protection environment. In normal condition, a distance relay agent stores the latest states, e.g., voltage of source side, voltage of the opposite side and the loading conditions, etc., through communication between the agents. Once a fault occurs, the relay calculates the fault location using the knowledge about the states just before the fault happens. This stand-alone operation is to improve reliability under the fault condition at which the accuracy or time required for communication may not be guaranteed. The mathematical expression of fault location is derived through loop analysis, before hand, in the manner that both fault current from the opposite end and fault resistance are included implicitly so that their effects are minimized. The suggested algorithm is applied to a typical transmission system with two power sources on both ends to show its effectiveness.

This paper proposes a percentage current differential relaying algorithm for bus protection using an advanced compensating algorithm of the secondary current of current transformers (CTs). The compensating algorithm estimates the core flux at the start of the first saturation based on the value of the second-difference of the secondary current. Then, it calculates the core flux and compensates distorted currents using the magnetization curve. The algorithm Is unaffected by a remanent flux. The simulation results indicate that the proposed algorithm can discriminate internal faults from external faults when the CT saturates. This paper concludes by implementing the algorithm into a TMS320C6701 digital signal processor. The results of hardware implementation are also satisfactory. The proposed algorithm can improve not only stability of the relay in the case of an external fault but sensitivity of the relay in the case of an internal fault.

The complexity of newly developed protection algorithm and higher performance requested by the user makes the software embedded in the protective relay much harder to develop and maintain. The versatility of 32bit microprocessor and the availability of cheaper memory semiconductors introduced the fertile developing background for the protective relay developers. The use of component object model(COM) in the software developing process enables the developer to write much complex code in the easy and safe way and to maintain the code easily, too. And the aid of the COM library, the distributed computing environment will be expected to appear by the use of the COM programming model in the protective relay firmware program.
