ABSTRACT
As cost-effective protection relays, Overcurrent (OC) relays are used as the
main protection equipment in distribution grids and backup protection for distance
relays in transmission and sub-transmission lines. Basically, two parameters are
considered as OC relays settings: pickup currents ( Ipick up ) and Time Setting
Multiplier (TSM). Hence, the objective in the coordination problem of OC relays is
to determine Ipick up and TSM of each relay. These methods can be classified into
two different approaches: Off-line and On-line coordination approaches. By
analyzing all faults, abnormal operating conditions, and system contingencies as
well-known as Off-line coordination techniques, several methods have been
developed to solve coordination problem of OC relays. However, the response of
relays would not be satisfactory in a condition which has not been included the
analysis earlier. Meaning that, required short circuit currents due to any fault that
occurred in grid cannot be adjusted to the coordination problem of OC relays.
Therefore, the risk of occurring mal-operation or miss-coordination becomes high. In
order to achieve a robust protection scheme, the OC relays settings must be updated
regarding to any change which results into new topology of the grid. In this thesis, a
reliable protection scheme is achieved by implementing the proposed adaptive
protection algorithm. For this purpose, the idea of employing the Thevenin
equivalent circuit is utilized to check the power grid operation for any change
continuously. By applying the proposed technique, the accurate settings of
overcurrent relays in distribution network are determined. As a result, the proposed
adaptive protection algorithm can avoid the unnecessary blackouts in distribution
network and provide reliable and sensitive protection scheme.

ABSTRAK
Untuk perlindungan geganti yang efekttif, geganti arus lebihan (OC)
digunakan sebagai alat perlindungan utama dalam grid agihan dan perlindungan
sokongan untuk geganti jarak dalam penghantaran dan sub-talian penghantaran. Pada
dasarnya, dua parameter yang dianggap sebagai tetapan geganti arus lebihan iaitu :
Arus Ambilan (PS) dan Masa Tetapan Pengganda (TSM). Oleh itu, objektif dalam
masalah penyelarasan daripada geganti arus lebihan ialah untuk menentukan Masa
Tetapan Pengganda bagi setiap geganti. Kaedah-kaedah ini boleh diklasifikasikan
pada dua pendekatan yang berbeza iaitu: Penyelarasan talian tertutup dan talian
terbuka. Dengan menganalisa semua kerosakan, keadaan operasi yang tidak normal,
dan sistem luar jangkaan yang dikenali sebagai teknik penyelarasan talian tertutup,
beberapa kaedah telah dicapai bagi menyelesaikan masalah penyelarasan geganti
arus lebihan. Walaubagaimanapun, keadaan tindak balas geganti kurang memuaskn,
dimana analisa kerosakan tidak dimasukkan lebih awal. Ini bermakna arus litar pintas
diperlukan kerana kerosakan yang berlaku dalam grid tidak dapat diselaraskan
dengan masalah penyelarasan geganti arus lebihan (OC). Oleh itu, risiko untuk
berlakunya ‘mal-operasi’ atau ‘miss-penyelarasan’ menjadi tinggi. Untuk mencapai
satu skim perlindungan teguh, tetapan geganti arus lebihan mestilah dikemaskini
berdasarkan sebarang perubahan kepada keputusan baru topologi grid. Dalam tesis
ini, skim perlindungan yang boleh dipercayai dicapai dengan melaksanakan
algoritma perlindungan penyesuaian yang telah dicadangkan. Bagi tujuan ini, idea
bagi menggunakan Litar Setara Thevenin digunakan untuk menyemak operasi kuasa
grid bagi apa-apa perubahan secara berterusan. Dengan menggunakan teknik yang
dicadangkan, tetapan tepat geganti arus lebihan dalam rangkaian agihan ditentukan.
Hasilnya, algoritma perlindungan penyesuaian yang dicadangkan boleh mengelakkan
kerosakan dalam pengedaran rangkaian dan menyediakan skim perlindungan yang
boleh dipercayai dan sensitif.

INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview
In the presence of increasing industrial developments and consequently
growing energy consumption, importance of accessing to reliable electricity widely
has been attention [1]. In addition to reliability, it is compulsory to generate
sufficient amount of electric power to transmit on a continuous basis where systems
efficiency depends on continuous electricity accessing [2]. To achieve this,
protection system associated with the power system must be able to identify and
compensate any effects or fails in the system which leads to long term blackouts [3].
Otherwise, more delays required to restore the system to its normal operating in case
of blackout or damage to equipments which is costly. Furthermore, utilization of the
suitable protective equipment is fundamentally important in terms of safety and
minimizing damages on the electrical devices. To achieve this, protective relays such
as overcurrent relays must promptly clear any fault with disconnecting as few
components as possible.
As cost-effective protective relays, overcurrent relays (OC) have been
employed in distribution system. Usually, these relays are the main protection
2
devices in distribution grids and backups for distance relays in transmission and sub
transmission lines [4]. Basically, two parameters are considered as OC relays
settings: pickup currents ( Ip iCk -U p ) and Time Setting Multiplier (TSM). Hence, the
objective in the coordination problem of OC relays is to determine Ipick - u p and TSM
of each relay [5]. In order to prevent any mal-operation or miss-coordination,
overcurrent relays must adjust with accurate values of pick up current and time dial
setting.
1.2 Problem Background
Several methods that have been developed to solve coordination problem of
OC relays can be classified into two different approaches: Off-line and On-line
coordination approaches. Traditionally, conventional approaches have been applied
to solve coordination problem of OC relays [10-16]. Since these approaches
encountered with problems for complex and interconnected networks, optimization
techniques introduced to overcome the mentioned problems [17-18]. These
optimization techniques can be divided into linear and non-linear techniques. In
linear techniques, pickup currents assumed to be known. Thus, the Linear
Programming (LP) is employed only to minimize operating time [19-22]. Since,
overcurrent relays coordination problem is a Mixed Integer Non- Linear
Programming (MINLP), LP techniques have limitations in term of low number of
restrictions. This leads to introduce non-linear technique or intelligence based
optimization methods. Considering the nonlinearity effects and integer variables in
problem formulation are the major benefits of the intelligent based optimization
methods [23-24]. Genetic algorithm (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO)
have been presented as two powerful tools in order to solve this complex
optimization problem [25-34].
3
However the optimization techniques presented reliable performance in
order to solve coordination problem, these protection techniques are in relation to the
concept of pre-determinism which involves analysis of all faults, abnormal operating
conditions, and system contingencies. In protection scheme based on pre
determinism concept, the response of relays would not be satisfactory in a condition
which has not been included the analysis earlier [4-9]. Meaning that, required short
circuit currents due to any fault that occurred in grid cannot be adjusted to the
coordination problem of OC relays. Therefore, the risk of occurring mal-operation or
miss-coordination becomes high.
In order to achieve a robust protection scheme, overcurrent relays must be
adjusted by new settings. For this purpose, microprocessor based relays have been
employed in order to introduce adaptive protection scheme [35-37]. In this manner, a
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system checked the system for
any alterations continuously. As mentioned above, in protection scheme based on
pre-determinism concept, the response of relays would not be satisfactory due to
uncertainties. Although, the proposed centralized adaptive protection approaches
have been provided good solution for this problem, the coordination process depends
on the monitoring performance of SCADA system.
In this thesis, a reliable protection scheme is achieved by implementing the
proposed adaptive protection algorithm. According to the proposed algorithm, new
setting for the overcurrent relays can be obtained regarding to any change in
topology of the grid. The method is an On-line technique and based on the Thevenin
equivalent circuit of the grid that seen from each bus. This provides a monitoring
capability which removes any dependency on SCADA system performance. In this
thesis, proper settings o f overcurrent relays that adjusted in a High Voltage (HV)
substation are determined by employing proposed adaptive protection algorithm.

1.3 Objective of Study
The objectives of this study are as follow.

2. To determine the required short circuit currents for accurate setting of
overcurrent relays in HV substation by applying obtained Thevenin
equivalent circuit parameters.
3. To propose new accurate setting of overcurrent relays in HV substation due
to any changes in grid topology (add/remove equipment).
1.4 Scope of Study
To achieve the research objectives, the following scopes will be covered:
1. Thevenin equivalent circuit is derived only for one bus.
2. IEEE 14-bus system is considered as case study.
3. MATLAB and POWERWORLD software are employed in this study.

equipments are considered
