The paper presents a brief overview of the standard IEC60255–121 and focusses on the challenges and advantages of using transient simulation for assessing protective relays. The importance of the use of statistical methods to investigate the behaviour of algorithms is discussed. Finally a new solution for performing these kinds of tests is introduced.
Most of current arc suppression coil compensation system works based on the magnitude of post-fault distributed capacitance. This system can not offer compensation before fault, so in power system with large distributed capacitance current, short circuit shock is inevitable. This paper proposes an automatic arc suppression coil compensation technology based on fixed-frequency signal injection, it...
Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) have the potential to play an essential role in power system monitoring and operation in the future, particularly for power systems incorporating increasing amounts of distributed generation (DG) and possibly systems operating in islanded mode in the future [1]. Their ability to directly measure and provide the voltage and current phasors at the PMU location offers...
Accurate fault location on transmission lines becomes increasingly beneficial by reducing outage times and allowing faster restoration of scarce power system assets back into service. Having natural access to synchronized remote current data, line current differential protection schemes can incorporate multiterminal fault location algorithms, allowing for more accurate fault location compared with...
This paper discusses the behaviour of both current- and voltage transformers under low-burden conditions. It is shown that this behaviour is basically linear under steady-state conditions. Moreover, there is a duality between the equations for VT and CT. Recommendations and possible mitigation strategies in case of low burden on the secondary side of measurement transformers are discussed.
For decades, various versions of the Takagi algorithm have been used by microprocessor-based relays for fault location. This system provides accurate fault location, limited by nonhomogeneous infeed, load flow, fault resistance, and series-compensated or parallel lines. With the emphasis placed on reliability in today's power system, the need for improved accuracy in fault location has increased....
