Abstract
Smart distribution grids will be a combination of
existing electrical networks controlled by distributed
software applications communicating via communication
networks. This means that not only the reliability of
individual technologies are crucial, but the
interoperability is also pivotal for the robustness of
the smart distribution network. These individual research
areas (electrical network, distributed software
controller and communication network) have their
corresponding fault handling strategies and several
proven solutions exist to ensure reliability. The
objective of our work is to integrate the solutions from
these individual technologies. We focus on the
interoperability and integration of individual fault
handling strategies that are essential for improving the
reliability and robustness of the overall smart
distribution network. In this paper, we describe our
approach in creating a single solution from the existing
individual strategies to create a robust smart
distribution network. We also present the details of the
demonstrator design that is being built to evaluate our
approach.
