Abstract

This paper describes how the presence of one or more distribution generators  affects the traditional calculation of relay protection applied in radial distribution networks. The goal of this paper is to determine the existence of any issue in relay protection calculation in the day-to-day management of the distribution network. The focus was put to protection coordination in Fuse Saving Scheme. Verification of results was carried out on network with 50 nodes.
