| Abstract |
This paper deals with the technical problems for the protection devices, by simulating test facilities of protection coordination for Photovoltaic systems. In order to analyze the operation characteristics for the protection devices in the case that the Photovoltaic systems with bi-directional power supply are located in the feeder, this paper proposes the test facilities composed of model distribution system, protection device and model Photovoltaic systems. By performing the simulation for operation characteristics for the protection devices based on the test facilities, this paper presents the malfunction mechanism for the protection devices. The test results show that this paper is practical and effective for the technical guideline for the Photovoltaic systems. |
