11 Challenges for Protection Systems of Smart Grids System Protection and Short-Circuit Protection Normal Operation Without DGs, No changing SC dir., Stability Reserves Short-Circuits System Protection Short-Circuit Protection Problem area short-circuit can often not clearly be confined towards the problem area system operation. Design of the protection system and equipment selection follows standard company rules despite of new requirements defined by modern power systems. No consideration of system emergency situations during settings calculation Critical Operation High Loads, DGs, Changing Infeeds, Stability Limit Short Circuits No consideration of system changes and extensions no continuous settings update Page 11 80% of all blackouts and large disturbances are in conjunction with wrong or unselective short-circuit protection

45 Summary Power systems with increasing DG penetration need regular protection system audits - to detect unselectivities - to help with settings adaption - to verify new calculated settings - to get a certificate that the protection system is well designed and settings are correct - to postpone CAPEX for new relaying schemes Power systems with increasing DG penetration need new protection schemes - only when no secure settings can be found - to increase the quality of power supply by reduction of SC / voltage dip duration - to develop a distribution system to a MicroGrid SmartGrids protection schemes and relays are available on market Page 45
