Abstract

This paper presents a novel objective function to obtain the optimum relay settings of directional over-current relays (DOCRs). The proposed improved objective function (IOF) is developed to solve the problems of previously proposed OFs. The proposed research work modifies the previous OFs by introducing a new weighting factor and adding a new term, for fixing mis-coordination problem and minimizing the operating times of both primary and backup relays. The performance of the proposed IOF is evaluated by using 3- and 8-bus test systems. The simulation results reflect the superiority of IOF, compared to other variety of OFs presented in the literature.
