Simulation methods using EMTP to analyze power transformer transient characteristics and their interesting results are presented in this paper. Because of the transformer saturation including initial inrush, the conventional current differential relay with harmonic restraint module does not provide a clear distinction between internal faults and other conditions. Providing the bases to develop a new relaying concept for power transformer protection, transformer nonlinear transient characteristics are analyzed.

In this paper, we suggested the verification method of protective algorithms using EMTDC(Electro-Magnetic Transient DC). In other to verify protective algorithms using EMTDC, we first had to make a user defined component and then applied it to a simple power system with parallel line. By means of this method, We reduced the much time and effort to develop or improve the protective algorithm of digital protective relay. For the future, we apply this method to IDPACS(Integrated Digital Protection and Control System) and intend to implement more reliable digital protective relays.

This paper reports the protection coordination program, INPROSET for the industrial power system to determine the optimal TAP and Time-Dial of OCRs. INPROSET performs two stages process and the first stage starts form the highest level and depending on its results, the second stage achieves the higher relay operating time. The developed system proved effective through the tests on the real systems.

Faults in induction motors can be categorized into mechanical faults and electrical faults, and most mechanical faults result from inferiority or damage of the bearing, while most electrical faults derive from insulation faults of stator windings and rotor bar cracks. When a crack appears on the rotor bar, its efficiency decreases, which increases energy consumption and temperature, reducing the life span of the motor. This kind of fault can only be sensed by the protection relay after the condition has worsened to a certain degree, bringing massive economic loss. This paper will deal with the diagnosis method of rotor bar faults through the load current analysis method of the motor used during operation.

The effect of the fault could be propagated to healthy region when the fault on the power system is not cleared in time. In order to enhance reliability of the protective relay, a dual and/or backup system is adopted for the power system protection. The IEC61850 has become an international standard of the substation automation system for interoperability between heterogeneous IEDs from different vendors. This paper introduces a reliability enhancement technique for the substation automation system using characteristics of the IEC61850.

This paper describes the development of a digital multifunction controller for the protection, measurement and control of the high voltage customer switchboard. The magnitude of the fundamental component is estimated using a simple filter based on cross-correlation with a heptagonal wave. The characteristics of flexible relay functions such as adjustable pickup and time-dial settings, various time-magnitude curve and directional capability including measurement functions are presented. The controller implementation is carried out on two microprocessors for real time operation.

The fault current has increased due to growth of distributed generations for the large power demand in power distribution system. To solve some problem such as excess of the circuit breaker's cut-off ratings, the superconducting fault current limiter(SFCL) has been progressed. However, the operational characteristics of the relay is changed by SFCL. Therefore, the proper impedance for the SFCL should be selected to keep protective coordination with the SFCL when SFCL is introduced on the neutral line of main transformer in distribution system. In this paper, the proper normal conducting resistance was suggested to solve the problem in case of the protection coordination with SFCL.

This paper proposes the discrimination method for the fault location, whether it is within the line where the distributed generation(DG) is integrated or out of the line (but sharing the same bus of the substation). In general, DG has to be disconnected from the grid when the fault occurs on the interconnected distribution feeder as soon as possible. However, the faults occured on the neighboring feeder would mistakenly cause the disconnection of the DG. For reliable operation of DG, DG should be sustained at the fault occurred on neighboring distribution feeders. The proposed identification method utilizes the impedance monitored from the DG and examines the coordination of overcurrent relay of the distribution system. This paper describes how the proposed method to identify the faulted feeder and how the method can be utilized.

A DC railway system has low feeder voltage, The remote fault current can be smaller than the current of load starting. So it is important to discriminate between the small fault current and the train starting current. The train starting current increases step by step but the fault current increases all at once. So the type of $\bigtriangleup I\;relay(50F)$ was developed using the different characteristics between the load starting current and the fault current. As for the train starting current, the time constant of train current at each step is much smaller than that of the fault current. To detect faults in U railway systems, an algorithm that is independent of train starting current. This algorithm use the time constant calculated by the method of least squares is presented in this paper.
