Application of df/dt in power system protection and its implementation in microcontroller based intelligent load shedding relay

摘要

Several practical intelligent setting schemes that consider the effect of df/dt are suggested and simulated for a power system operating in an underfrequency situation. Considerations for df/dt relay setting are discussed. These intelligent setting schemes have made a positive improvement in the underfrequency condition. As an extension of these new intelligent control schemes, a microcontroller based intelligent under/over frequency relay is introduced. With its advanced hardware and intelligent software, this microcontroller has the advantages of high flexibility, less cost, and high communication ability.
