Transmission Line Protection Using Digital Technology


Book Description

This book develops novel digital distance relaying schemes to eliminate the errors produced by the conventional digital distance relays while protecting power transmission lines against different types of faults. These include high resistance ground faults on single infeed transmission lines; high resistance ground faults on double infeed transmission lines; simultaneous open conductor and ground fault on double infeed transmission lines; inter-circuit faults on parallel transmission lines; simultaneous open conductor and ground fault on series compensated parallel transmission lines; inter-circuit faults on series compensated parallel transmission lines; and phase faults on series compensated double infeed transmission lines. This monograph also details suggestions for further work in the area of digital protection of transmission lines. The contents will be useful to academic as well as professional researchers working in transmission line protection.




Power Electronics and Power Quality


Book Description

Power quality (PQ) is receiving more and more attention from consumers, distribution system operators, transmission system operators, and other entities related to electrical power systems. As PQ problems have direct implications for business productivity, causing high economic losses, the research and development monitoring technologies and power electronics solutions that ensure the PQ of the power systems are matters of utmost importance. This book is a collection of high quality papers published in the “Power Electronics and Power Quality” Special Issue of the journal Energies. It reflects on the latest investigations and the new trends in this field.

Seventh International Conference on Developments in Power System Protection, 9-12 April, 2001


Book Description

To keep the price so low, perhaps, or maybe to legitimize the proceedings with corporate endorsement, the conventional introduction is dropped in favor of several full-page color advertisements. The some 150 papers discuss integrating protection and control, testing protection and protection systems, embedded generation, communications in protection and control, integrating the two, relay design and new protection principles, the impact of utility changes on protection, power quality and reliability, artificial intelligence, fault location, simulating protection and power systems, protection design techniques, application and management, and relay design and protection principles.

Solar Energy Applications in Houses, Smart Cities and Microgrids


Book Description

Five papers were selected for this Special Issue, with three relating to solar energy applications in houses, smart cities, and microgrids; one studying the relationship between the smart city model and the concept of energy sustainability; and one addressing the following two topics: the lack of effectiveness of detection algorithms based on the voltage/frequency displacement concept under voltage-controlled inverters and the applicability limits of others based on the impedance measurement (IM).
