Other intertie protection consideration

Power system is capable of operating within thermal limits with DG exporting power to the system A setting of about 10% above the export power limit should be applied to protect against such a overload Case of larger DG out-of-step relaying may be applied as part of the intertie relaying An energy sources that independent of power system voltage is required to trip CB during fault condition

Induction generators
An induction motor that are driven above synchronous speed to generate electric power It is possible for an induction generator to become self-excited if :
capacitors exist within the isolated system to provide a source of excitation the isolated load is within the proximity of its rating

But..

Cont
When self-excitation occurs it is accompanied by a sudden increase in terminal voltage and cause damage to electrical equipment Such installation, application of an undervoltage relay, anti-islanding relay and overvoltage relay should be provided

PRACTICAL CONSIDERATIONS OF DISTRIBUTED GENERATION

Perkembangan dari distribusi dalam tenaga listrik telah berubah kini dan ada beberapa hal yang harus dipertimbangkan lagi : Owners of generators are provided a fair and equal opportunity for obtaining access to power systems for transporting their generated power to prospective customers Adequate safeguards exist at the generation facility and on the associated utility power system such that the safety of personnel working at the generation site, on the power system facilities, and of the general public is uncompromised.
The quality of power delivered by the power system and overall power system reliability is not degraded below satisfactory levels.

Cont
It is important that the protection specialists who represent the various entities take an active role in this process and provide input to assure all pertinent protection issues identified and considered

Every power system and generation facility has some of its own unique characteristics. Engineers working directly with these systems on a continual basis are in the best position to identify hazards, concerns, and challenges as they relate to the specific system characteristics
