Abstract

Ferroresonance is phenomena, which emerged in case of different circumstances such as short circuit and breaker phase failure. In addition, plant outage is another cause of ferroresonance. Ferroresonance may cause maloperation of some protective devices such as differential protection. In this study, Manitoba hydro network is analysed in power systems computer-aided design/electro-magnetic transient design and control to recognise ferroresonant configurations in case of plant outage. Impact of ferroresonance on maloperation of differential protection is analysed. A static var compensator (SVC) is installed at the mid-point of the network to mitigate ferroresonance. Operation of relay is assessed in the presence of SVC; furthermore, effect of parameters and components of SVC on operation of differential protection is investigated. Then, an adaptive algorithm is designed in differential relay to recognise ferroresonance and prevent maloperation of the relay.
