Abstract

The trend of using renewable energy sources (RESs) as distributed generators (DG) in a distribution network brings new challenges to power system protection. The variability of the output power, the location of the point of common coupling (PCC), and the characteristics type of DG influence the dynamic stability of the power system. The traditional distribution network and its protection system are not originally designed to accommodate the high penetration RES. Most of the RESs are inverter-based resources (IBRs). Therefore, a comprehensive understanding of the impact of high penetration IBR in the distribution network is needed. This work investigates the impact of high penetration RESs in the IEEE 13 bus system. The scenarios and case studies, including the comparison of DG type and various fault points, are considered in the protection system design. Specifically, this work investigates the over-current relay with voltage consideration to achieve a credible protection coordination scheme.
