Enhancing Distance Protection Performance in Transmission Systems with Renewable Energy Utilization

This paper deals with a comprehensive analysis to test the performance of available distance protection, that can be used in transmission networks with high penetration of converter-based distribution generation. For this, a new benchmark model has been developed according to the European Network of Transmission System Operators (ENTSO-e)...

New faulted phase selector solution for dealing with the effects of Type-4 Wind Turbine on present protection relaying algorithms

Type 4 wind turbines are becoming one of the most employed technologies for all new wind turbines installed in the power system and their penetration is expected to increase. This technology presents the advantage that of fully decoupling the behavior of the generator from grid disturbances. This decoupling helps the wind turbine to reach the...
