Implementation of Resilient Self-Healing Microgrids with IEC 61850-Based Communications

Junho Hong et al.

Summary: This paper proposes a fast fault detection, isolation, and restoration method for microgrid application, considering communication/system failure with the use of IEC 61850 GOOSE communication. The proposed method can enhance the reliability and interoperability of microgrid operation. Hardware-in-the-loop testbed validation results demonstrate that the method enables self-healing microgrids.

IEC 61850-Based Centralized Protection against Single Line-To-Ground Faults in Ungrounded Distribution Systems

Soon-Ryul Nam et al.

Summary: In this study, a centralized protection scheme based on IEC 61850 was developed to detect single line-to-ground faults in ungrounded distribution systems using zero-sequence phasor measurements. By exploiting angle differences and utilizing data compensation techniques, centralized protection was achieved, and zero-sequence phasors were calculated based on fault signals simulated through PSCAD/EMTDC. Aggregating and analyzing zero-sequence phasors from feeder IEDs allowed the central IED to determine the location of the fault, validating the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed scheme.
