“…Operation of DGs affects the protection scheme and may cause false tripping of feeders and increase or decrease in the fault level depending on the status of the DGs. The changing fault levels can affect the reach of the overcurrent relay leading to miss-coordination [16].…”

This paper proposes a decentralized control approach using a co-simulation platform to monitor protective elements and provide complete protection scheme for distribution systems. Real time measurements are obtained by interfacing the system model in RSCAD/RTDS with SEL 421 protective relays and publish/subscribe the voltage and current signals of the buses and transmission lines based on IEC 61850 communication protocol to isolate the fault correctly. The proposed technique helps to identify the location of the fault and introduces primary and buck protection for the system. The communication networks assists in facing cyber and physical threats and finding a new path for healthy relays to remove faults from the system. This technique is investigated on an IEEE 14 bus system for all possible fault locations. The proposed scheme can clear the fault by isolating the minimum part of the system and improving the endurance of the power in it. The system shows the smooth information flow between the cyber and physical parts to isolate faults in it in different cases.

The protection problems in microgrid effect the reliability of the power system caused due to high distributed generator penetrations. Therefore, fault protection in microgrid is extremely important and needs to be resolved to enhance the robustness of the power system. This manuscript proposes a combined signal processing and data mining-based approach for microgrid fault protection. In this study, first the multiresolution decomposition of wavelet transform is employed to preprocess the voltage and current signals to compute the total harmonic distortion of the voltage and current. Then, the statistical indices of standard deviation, mean, and median of the total harmonic distortion and the negative sequence components of active and reactive power are used to collect the input data. After that, all the available data is provided to the random forest-based classifier to evaluate the efficiency of the proposed scheme in terms of the detection, identification, and classification of faults. This study used different aspects for data collection by simulating various fault and no-fault cases for both looped and radial configurations under grid-connected and islanded modes of operation. The simulations were performed on a standard medium voltage microgrid using MATLAB/SIMULINK, whereas the analysis for testing and training of the random forest were conducted in Python. It is recognized that the proposed method performed better than support vector machines and decision tree that are reported in the literature. The results further demonstrate that the proposed method can also detect simultaneous faults, and it is also effective against measurement noise.INDEX TERMS Data-mining, discrete wavelet transform, feature extraction, fault protection, multiresolution analysis, random forest.

“…Habib et al [ 29 , 30 ] provided a fast protection scheme for MG by applying DDS gateway on transmission lines as middleware to satisfy the time-constrained requirements of IEC 61850’s critical messages, i.e., generic object oriented substation event (GOOSE) and sampled measured values messages (SMV) in a local area network (LAN). Frequency control of MG as an interactive element of utility grid implemented in [ 31 ] by preparing an information model based on the IEC 61850 mapped to the DDS.…”

Renewable energy sources, which are controllable under the management of the microgrids with the contribution of energy storage systems and smart inverters, can support power system frequency regulation along with traditionally frequency control providers. This issue will not be viable without a robust communication architecture that meets all communication specification requirements of frequency regulation, including latency, reliability, and security. Therefore, this paper focuses on providing a communication framework of interacting between the power grid management system and microgrid central controller. In this scenario, the microgrid control center is integrated into the utility grid as a frequency regulation supporter for the main grid. This communication structure emulates the information model of the IEC 61850 protocol to meet interoperability. By employing IoT’s transmission protocol data distribution services, the structure satisfies the communication requirements for interacting in the wide-area network. This paper represents an interoperable information model for the microgrid central controller and power system management sectors’ interactions based on the IEC 61850-–8-–2 standard. Furthermore, we evaluate our scenario by measuring the latency, reliability, and security performance of data distribution services on a real communication testbed.
