A local measurement-based protection scheme for DER integrated DC microgrid using Bagging Tree

Abstract:   (1679 Views)
In recent years, DC microgrid has attracted considerable attention of the research community because of the wide usage of DC power-based appliances. However, the acceptance of DC microgrid by power utilities is still limited due to the issues associated with the development of a reliable protection scheme. The high magnitude of DC fault current, its rapid rate of rising and absence of zero crossing hinders achieving reliable protection in DC microgrid. Further, the intermittency associated with the non-conventional distributed generators demands adaptiveness under varying weather conditions. In this paper, the above-mentioned issues are addressed by developing a bagging tree-based protection approach for a multi-terminal DC microgrid. The proposed scheme addresses the intermittency associated with renewable sources. It performs the functions of mode detection, fault detection/classification, and faulty section identification using local information of current and voltage signals only. The same avoids the communication network related drawbacks like data loss and latency.
