Review of Methods for Addressing Challenging Issues in the Operation of Protection Devices in Microgrids with Voltages of up to 1 kV That Integrates Distributed Energy Resources
Abstract
:1. Introduction
2. Issues of Operation of PDs in Microgrids with DERs
2.1. Factors That Lead to Malfunctioning of PDs
- The blinding of protections;
- a significant change in the value of fault currents during the transition from the grid-connected mode of operation to the islanded mode and vice versa;
- bidirectional power flows, which depend on the operating conditions of generation and power consumption at microgrid nodes;
- the improper operation of PDs during the automatic reclosing (AR) of power lines between the microgrid and the power system [28].
2.2. Blinding of Protections
2.3. Significant Change in the Magnitude of Fault Currents
2.4. Bidirectional Power Flows
2.5. Disruption of Tripping Selectivity of Protections
2.6. Nuisance Tripping of Protections
2.7. Incorrect Operation of Protections during AR on Power Transmission Lines
3. Issues of Using Conventional Types of Protections in Microgrids
- overcurrent protection that uses current sensors and responds to a current value exceeding a specified set point (tripping device or relay);
- voltage protection that uses voltage sensors and responds to a drop in voltage relative to a specified set point (tripping device or relay);
- distance protection that uses current and voltage sensors and responds to changes in impedance value specified as a set point based on fault current calculations;
- differential protection that uses current sensors installed at the ends of the element to be protected, e.g., a power transmission line, and a communication link between them. This protection responds to an increase in the value of the current difference at the ends of the power transmission line [34].
3.1. Overcurrent Protection
- inability to correctly identify the faulty element in the case of a bidirectional power flow during a short circuit;
- notable tripping time delay for short circuits that occur far away from the generator;
- low sensitivity at high fault impedances;
- disruption of the selectivity of the action of protections at increased values of the fault current, for example, in the event of a near-to-generator three-phase short-circuit.
3.2. Voltage Protection
- significant dependence of protection operation on the configuration of the power grid and DER operation modes;
- decrease in the sensitivity of protection in the grid-connected mode of microgrids operation;
- failure of the protection to trip at significant fault impedance values.
3.3. Distance Protection
- insufficient sensitivity when installing a protection scheme on short power transmission lines, as well as in case of faults accompanied by a significant fault impedance;
- improper operation of protections when integrating a large number of wind turbines (WT) into a microgrid (combining a group of WTs into one equivalent WT fails to capture the nature and characteristics of the individual WT);
- incorrect operation of protections due to the incorrect choice of parameters of their tripping resulting from the assumption that the resistance of the wind turbine is a constant value (wind turbine impedance is a variable value, depending on the value of electricity generation, which in turn depends on the value of wind head at a given moment of time).
3.4. Differential Protection
- incorrect operation of protections in unbalanced systems due to a decrease in the magnitude of the fault current, as well as in faults accompanied by a significant fault impedance;
- the need for a backup communication channel in case of damage caused to the working communication channel, which leads to a significant increase in the cost of the project.
4. Overview of Innovative Principles of Design of PDs in Microgrids with DERs
- improvement of algorithms and the selection of tripping set points for conventional current, voltage, distance, and differential protections;
- transition to the use of adaptive protections based on decentralized and centralized principles;
4.1. Issues of Implementing Innovative Principles of Protection
4.1.1. Issues of Improving Conventional Protections
- to implement remote control on circuit breakers;
- to install additional current and voltage sensors, together with circuit breakers and fuses [52];
- to install IEDs, which will implement more up-to-date protection algorithms.
- IEC 61499 “Function blocks for industrial-process measurement and control systems”. The series of standards defines a distributed, event-driven architecture, and software tool requirements for the encapsulation, embedding, deployment, and integration of software in intelligent devices, machines, and systems;
- IEC 61508 “Functional safety of electrical/electronic/programmable electronic safety-related systems”. The series of standards describes the features of various systems (electrical, electronic, programmable) that ensure the reliability, efficiency, and fault-free operation of microgrids with DERs;
- IEC 61850 “Communication networks and systems in substations”. The series of standards defines the formats of data flows, types of information, rules for describing the elements of the energy facility, and a set of rules for establishing an event protocol of data transfer between IEDs. One of the standards is IEC 61850-7 deals with the issues of the organization of communication for substation equipment and feeder power transmission lines, which allows the standardization of the process of designing microgrids with DERs, as well as synthesizing new types of protections [54];
- IEC 61970 “Energy management system application program interface (EMS-API)”/IEC 61968 “Application integration at electric utilities—System interfaces for distribution management”. The IEC 61970 series of standards presents a general information model describing the equipment and other elements of the power system in the form of classes, their properties, and relationships. The IEC 61968 series of standards extends this model by describing other aspects of data exchange, such as asset management, work scheduling, and the billing of customers that operate as part of the microgrid;
- IEC 62056 “Electricity metering data exchange—The DLMS/COSEM suite”. This series of standards establishes the requirements for the exchange of data from the results of the measurements of electrical quantities for electricity metering;
- IEC 62351 “Power systems management and associated information exchange—Data and communications security”. This series of standards governs the issues of ensuring data and communications security;
- IEC/TP 62357 “Power systems management and associated information exchange”. The series of standards specifies requirements for power system management processes and related information exchange.
4.1.2. Issues of the Switching Infrastructure
- high reliability: optical cable; GSM; and the combination of local area network (LAN) with wireless and power line communication;
- low reliability: telephonic communications and GPS.
4.2. An Overview of Improved Conventional Protection Schemes
4.2.1. Improved Overcurrent and Voltage Protections
4.2.2. Improved Distance Protection Schemes
4.2.3. Improved Differential Protections
4.3. Designing Adaptive (Decentralized and Centralized) Protection Schemes
- machine learning and artificial intelligence methods;
- Wide-Area Monitoring, Protection and Control (WAMPAC) devices;
- data exchange protocols compliant with IEC 61850 [79].
- an approach based on computational intelligence whose actions are close to human reasoning;
- an adaptive approach based on modifications (combinations) of known approaches to improve the efficiency and reliability of protection schemes.
- artificial neural networks;
- metaheuristics;
- fuzzy logic;
- multi-agent systems.
4.3.1. Decentralized Adaptive Protections
4.3.2. Centralized Adaptive Protection Schemes
- the need for communication channels;
- the need to install high-performance IEDs;
- the need to take into account the various topological and operational situations;
- the complexity of fault current calculations in the presence of different types of DERs [106].
4.4. Installation of Auxiliary Devices
4.4.1. Fault Current Limiters
- the need to install an additional power device;
- ensuring the cooling requirements for FCLs, failure to comply with which may result in thermal breakdown of FCLs;
- difficulties in determining the magnitude of the FCL impedance due to the mutual influence of DERs in microgrids under different modes of operation;
- the need for availability of an accurate transient characteristic curve of FCLs.
