Research on the Adaptive Protection Method for Distribution Networks With Inverter‐Type Distributed Power Supplies: Based on Short‐Circuit Impedance Calculation

Engineering Reports, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2025.
If the linear node voltage equation set obtained from the faulty composite sequential network is solved directly by linear transformation, it is not possible to accurately calculate and obtain the fault current and the voltage at the merging point of IIDG.

Coordination of Directional Overcurrent Relays using Growth Optimizer

Electrotehnica, Electronica, Automatica
The protection system plays a crucial role in the generation, transmission, and distribution systems of a power network. Among various protection relay types, Directional Overcurrent Relays (DOCRs) are the most used. When abnormal conditions are detected, these relays trigger the tripping of protection devices by detecting the direction and magnitude ...
