The safety and reliability of the power system short-circuit current, the short-circuit current depends on the failure to obtain the objective is to quickly eliminate the breaking capacity of the circuit-breaker selection of the cable, the insulation of electrical equipment and protective relay an important factor in determining the level correction and protective relay selection scheme to be meaningful. Standards used in the domestic circuit breaker is applied to the production of IEC standard, but the American National Standards (ANSI / IEEE) by NEMA specification of the fault current calculations and the application of the asymmetric coefficient Korea. Therefore, in this paper, the IEC 60909 standard IEC breaker fault current calculation method and the method for selection of system configurations reviewed and protection system for reviewing the configuration of various protective relays appropriate correction and the correction value is main protection, back-up protection the equipment so that the period of protection relay coordination to minimize accidents and accident protection to minimize interruptions proposed for cooperation.

The Co-Gen System which maximize energy efficiency was installed at the industrial plants at the initial stage. However Small Scale Co-Gen System was expanded even to the general end-users such as housing and building owing to ESCO business recently. For this SSC, inter-connected operation to the utility is desirable due to voltage and frequency fluctuation following to unbalance between power output and load. Then voltage unbalance with utility system, frequency, increase of short circuit capacity, reclosing, and ALTS etc. should be fully considered for the inter-connected operation. Voltage variation, protection coordination, Co-Generators single running, and short circuit capacity should also be solved. For Con-Gen users, the several protection relays are recommended to install at the user's main incoming panel by the guide lines and/or instructions of the interconnected utility Then user's main CB(Circuit Breaker) have the chance to be tripped by some of this recommended relays and users have to undergo the unexpected blackout. So the circuit breaker trip schemes targeted to trip with these protection relays are reconsidered and the study result is hereunder proposed.

If a photovoltaic (PV) system is installed in a primary feeder interconnected with the PV system, bi-directional power flow can occur, and then, the magnitude and direction of the fault current can change, depending on the fault location and point of common coupling (PCC) of the PV system, and the time current curve (TCC) cannot be properly coordinated between protection devices. Also, it is difficult to obtain a proper time interval for protection devices because the conventional setting approach is applied, even though the PV system is installed and operating. Therefore, this paper presents three operation modes considering the operational conditions of the PV system to obtain setting values for protection devices. Based on the mode, this paper proposes an algorithm to calculate the optimal protection coordination time interval according to the introduction capacity of the PV system. In addition, this paper performs modelling of a distribution system with the PV system and protection devices by using Off-DAS S/W, and analyzes the characteristics of the time interval between the protection devices, such as substation relays, reclosers, customer relays, and PV customer relays. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed operational modes and setting-value algorithms are useful and effective for protection coordination in a distribution system for a PV system.

When fault occur in power systems, the protective relay plays a roles of protecting power system according to its setting values. There, it is very important that the protective relay have high selectivity performance in power system by correct setting the relays. This paper analyzed protect device protect cooperation or Transient stability and apply to Overcurrent relay in the real power system operation environment by using EDSA Program.

In this paper we propose to develop program witch can improve the detecting capability of impedance fault in power transmission system. It is difficult to setting relay because the different type relays have many setting values to coordinate with each other. The proposed program assist a user in setting relay with convenience grapic environment and database.

This paper reports an expert system for coordination of protective relays in the high voltage transmission system. The proposed system consists of five modules and has adopted the frame and production rule representations achieving the efficient data storage and knowledgebases. It has an interface to the fault program PSS/E and has reduced the data retrival time by implementing the local database containg only the minimum information for the process. Different relay parameters and output formats of the setting results can be easily incorporated owing to the rule-based structure. Graphics-based output helps understanding of the process and enhances the practical power.

This paper reports the protection coordination program, INPROSET for the industrial power system to determine the optimal TAP and Time-Dial of OCRs. INPROSET performs two stages process and the first stage starts form the highest level and depending on its results, the second stage achieves the higher relay operating time. The developed system proved effective through the tests on the real systems.

A higher penetration of renewable energy sources and adoption of renewable portfolio standard(RPS), the penetration of distributed generators(DGs) into power distribution network is becoming a threat for the safe operation of distribution network. The ground fault current of DGs can cause parasitic trip and mal-trip of protective device in the power distribution network. KEPRI has developed a simulation program for current setting of protective devices in DGs connected distribution network. In this study, we analyzed fault currents of a sample network in two cases, i.e. case 1 is for no DG connection, case 2 for a DG connection. We performed protection coordination for relays installed in the network and analyzed the contribution of a DG.

In this paper, this is a study on the correction of protection relays to monitor temporary power facilities for storage tanks especially transformers to block and protect faults such as insulation breakdown. When an abnormality such as a short circuit or a ground fault occurs in the power system, it is important to detect this quickly cut off the device and equipment in which the fault occurred and separate it from the power system to correct the protection relay so that it does not interfere with power supply. In addition the fault current calculation that accurately applies the fault type and the cause of the fault for protection cooperation will be the most important factor in the correction of the protection relay. For protection coordination a study was conducted on the method of coordination for protection of power facility protection for storage tanks such as over current relay, ground over current relay, under voltage relay, and ground over voltage relay applied to temporary.

When small cogenerators are operated in connected with power system, there are many positive aspects such as the reduction of power plant construction, making a improvement of power security etc. At the same time, there are some negative effects or difficulties such as we should make sure of protective coordination, especially, Actually these are not fault, but it is likely to consider the current as the fault. This is one of major causes of malfunctions for protective relays in power distribution system which is including interconnection point. Thus, in this paper, We showed that the directional protection is necessary to the dispersed generation system which is including connection point. We also executed contingency analysis to find out the magnitude of fault current and direction which are classified by fault points, length of line and kinds of faults using ETAP power system analysis program.
