Autoreclosure provides a mean of improving power transmitting ability and system stability. The conventional reclosure adopts the fixed dead time interval strategy, that is, the reclosure is activated after a time delay to restore the system to normal as quickly as possible without regard to the system conditions, however, these simple techniques cannot give the optimal operating performance. For this reason, various adaptive reclosure algorithms have been proposed recently, This paper presents an adaptive autoreclosure algorithm including the variable dead time, optimal reclosure, sequential reclosure and emergency extended equal-area criterion (EEAC) algorithm in order to improve the system stability. The reclosure algorithm performs out the operations that are attuned to the power system conditions. The proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm is verified and tested by using EMTP MODELS, and the simulation results show that the system oscillations are reduced and the transient stability is enhanced by employing the proposed adaptive reclosure algorithm.
