Recently, There has been growing interest in Distributed Generations with high-energy efficiency due to the Increasing energy consumption and environmental pollution problems. but an insertion of Distributed Generations to existing power distribution system can cause several problems such as voltage variations, harmonics, protective coordination, increasing fault current etc, because of reverse power. This paper was applied to Sukumar M[l] proposal schemes and identity the faulted section performing short-circuit analysis by MATLAB program to distribution systems interconnected a large number of distributed generations.

In order to analyze the transient characteristics for distributed generation located with the secondary feeders, this paper constructs a Distributed Generations Filed Test Center which can produce transient characteristics such as voltage sag, swell, interruption, harmonic and so on. And also this paper proposes the test results for the interconnection of distributed generations. The results show the effectiveness for the utility technical guidelines for distributed generations with the secondary feeders.

This paper presents an analytical method for the reliability evaluation of distribution system, including the distributed generations. Unlike the large sized generations of transmission system, the distributed generations have complexities in analyzing and determining the operation. In the process of evaluate reliability, it can be shown that the analytical method is simpler than the Monte-Carlo simulation and the method using Load Duration Curve model is more accurate than that using peak load model. The modeling of distributed generation to analysis distribution system reliability using LDC is proposed in this Paper, and is compared with the MCS method as a result of case studies.

Reliability evaluation of power distribution system is the evaluation for all customers supplied from one power source as main transformer located in substation. However, power sources include not only the main transformer but distributed generations. Typical reliability evaluation has focused on configuration of power system with one source including failure rates of equipment. In this paper, we focus on not only configuration but power sources as distributed generations. New reliability evaluation method using power supplied probability (PSP) is proposed. The proposed evaluation method are proved through case studies.

Electrical system is changing to smart grid which includes the distributed generations with reusable energy sources in these days. The distributed generations are environmentally friendly and have no concern with depletion problem. But dispatching distributed generations can cause an increase of the fault current. Resistive type super conducting fault current limiter is one of the candidates of solution for the large fault problem in smart grid. In this paper, a design method for the wire length of fault current limiter and the result of short circuit test for small scale modules considering system resistance are introduced.

This paper describes the coordinated droop control method for stand-alone type DC micro-grid to improve reliability and utilization of distributed generations and energy storage. The stand-alone type DC micro-grid consists of several distributed generations such as a wind power generation, solar power and micro-turbine, and energy storage. The proposed method which is based on autonomous control method shows high reliability and stability through coordinated droop control of distributed generations and energy storage and also capability of battery management. The operation of stand-alone type DC micro-grid was analyzed using detail simulation model with PSCAD/EMTDC software. Based on simulation results, a hardware simulator was built and tested with commercially available components and performance of system was verified.

This paper proposes an estimation algorithm for the generating power of distributed generations(DG) interconnected with distribution networks. These days, DG are rapidly increasing and most of them are interconnected with distribution networks. The DG can supply power into the distribution network, which may make significant impact on fault current and the protection scheme of the interconnected distribution networks. Generally these influences of DG is proportioned as the distributed generator's power. Therefore, it is important to forecast the output power of distributed generator in PCC(point of common coupling). This paper presents the prediction method of DG's power by monitoring the current and phase difference.

This paper deals with the optimal operation algorithm of SVR(Step Voltage Regulator) which is located with primary feeders and proposes the optimal operation system to evaluate customer voltage. The existing algorithm of SVR adapts the constant sending voltage method, which may cause the power quality problems such as overvoltage and under voltage variations in case where the distributed generations are interconnected with the primary feeders. Therefore, this paper proposes the optimal algorithm of LDC method for SVR using least square method to obtain the optimal setting values. Also, this paper presents the optimal evaluation system based on the former algorithm. The simulation results according to the types and capacities of distributed generations shows the effectiveness.
