Abstract
Distributed generation is changing the way electricity distribution
nwetwors are designed and operated. One of the key issues and prerequisites
for having significant share of total production of distributed generation is
that the operation of system protection is not jeopardized. Automatic
reclosing is very important for the reliability of overhead networks. On the
other hand, reclosing can be problematic when DG units are connected the the
network.
In order to find out the impact of distributed generation on protection,
dynamic simulations have been carried out. PSCAD/EMTDC transient simulation
software and advanced power system models have been applied. The simulations
verify the challenges distributed generation causes to protection, especially
to high-speed reclosing.
