Now a day's non-conventional energy sources like PV power and Wind power sources are well developed because conventional energy sources are reduced day by day and at the same time the population has been increased. These drawbacks can be overcome by developing the microgrids. In current trends, microgrid protection is a very challenging task. Due to the interconnection of several distributed generators, fault currents are produced. Resistive type superconducting fault current limiter is used for the protection of microgrids because its operating time is very less, it stops the abnormal currents with in the first cycle and continuity of supply is possible. But R-SFCL had some disadvantages, it is not compensated for the reactive power. Then voltage levels are not compensated, for that reason series active power filters are used along with R-SFCL. Here series active power filters are compensating the voltage magnitudes and reduce the harmonics and then transient stability is improved in the microgrids. This work is done using MATLAB/Simulink.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
