With distributed generation interconnection power flow becoming bidirectional, culminating in network problems, smart grids aid in electricity generation, transmission, substations, distribution and consumption to achieve a system that is clean, safe (protected), secure, reliable, efficient, and sustainable. This book illustrates fault analysis, relay technology, substation control and other related topics with MATLAB support. Intended audience is senior undergraduate and graduate students, and researchers in power systems, transmission and distribution, protection system broadly under electrical engineering.
Key Features
• Exclusively covers protection of power systems considering the smart grid environment
• Covers substation protection automation and control, protection of power systems
• Presents the concepts of renewable energy integration and reliability of power system protection with renewable distributed generation (DG) integration
• Covers foundations of smart grid and smart relay systems
• Concepts supported through sufficient problems, solutions, tutorials, and examples with MATLAB
