Adaptive Distribution Feeder Protection Scheme to handle the Penetration of SEIG based Wind Farm
Main Article Content
Abstract
There is a potential threat to the conventional distribution overhead feeder protection due to the increasing penetration of Distributed Generation (DG). In order to cope up with this, adaptive feeder protection schemes are required. This work involves the development of an adaptive feeder protection scheme to surmount the impacts of wind based DG which is highly intermittent in nature. PSCADĀ® is used to carry out simulations. MATLAB based software package for distribution system conductor sizing and protection coordination studies are also presented.
