An adaptive virtual impedance fault current limiter for optimal protection coordination of islanded microgrids

open access: yesIET Renewable Power Generation, 2022
Fault currents of inverter‐interfaced distributed generators (IIDGs) depend on inverter controllers. Thus, IIDGs fault currents are different than those of synchronous‐based DGs, both from the magnitude and waveshape perspectives.

Optimal coordination of directional overcurrent relays using improved mathematical formulation

open access: yesIET Generation, Transmission & Distribution, 2018
Achieving optimum coordination of directional overcurrent relays is a very complicated task in the large interconnected system including huge numbers of relays. In the literature, various objective functions (OFs) are reported to obtain minimum operating time of relays and minimum prescribed discrimination time between the operations of primary and ...

Recent Advances in Design of Fault Current Limiters for Modern Power Grid Networks: A Critical Review

open access: yesJournal of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Fault current limiters (FCLs) are essential components in modern power systems for critical protection against the damaging effects of fault currents. With extensive short circuits, routine electrical faults, and an increasing risk of failure due to unprecedented events, the development of different types of FCL has gained attention.
