Abstract:

The technical report provides complementary materials and models for the paper "Quantifying the impact of communication delay on adaptive protection systems."
The paper investigates modern protection systems in power grids that face new challenges due to distributed renewable energy sources. Protection issues introduced
due to these distributed renewable energy sources, such as blinding and sympathetic tripping, are discussed. A communication network is used to solve these issues
 by adapting the sensitivity of the protection devices. However, the communication network is subject to strict performance requirements such as communication delay,
which are investigated in the paper. A discrete event simulation-based model is developed to assess the impact of parameters such as communication delay on the
adaptive protection system. The results demonstrate that using a communication network improves the performance of the protection system even when subjected to
 communication delays. The proposed method allows the performance analysis of protection systems. Consequently, performance thresholds can be determined for various
scenarios. Furthermore, the impact of parameters such as fault impedance, protection sensitivity and location of renewable energy sources can be investigated using
the proposed approach. The relevant models required for the above analysis are presented in this report.
