Abstract

The integration of distributed generation (DG) units such as wind power into the distribution network are one of the most viable technique to meet the energy demand increases. But, the integration of these DG units into power systems can change the dynamic performances of the systems and create new challenges that are necessary to be taken care of in the operation of the network. The fault location and diagnosis are the most significant technical challenges that can improve power systems’ reliability and stability. In this paper, a Multi-Agent System (MAS) based on current amplitude and current direction measured proposed for fault location, isolation, and power restoration in a smart distribution system with the presence of a wind power generator. The agents can communicate and collaborate to locate the faulted line, then send trips signal to corresponding circuit breakers accordingly. The simulation results show the performance of the proposed techniques.
