Abstract
With the development of distributed generation (DG), the radial distribution systems are now being transformed to interconnected systems. So, it is essential to provide faster protection system to assure reliability. In this paper, a proposed strategy involving dual setting directional over current relays (DOCR) is used to design protection system. These relays are provided with standard inverse characteristics for over current elements and are designed to operate differently in forward and reverse directions based on the direction of fault current. So, the coordination problem with in the elements is designed with objective of minimizing overall operating time of relays. The optimization problem is taken as constrained non-linear programming problem. The proposed scheme is tested and compared with conventional approach, where relays are equipped with unidirectional settings. Both schemes are tested using the IEEE-14 bus test system and is designed to use synchronous generation for DG. The proposed scheme is found to be better and act faster than the conventional scheme, thus providing a quicker and reliable protection.
