In this book, adaptive protection schemes for power systems with DG units are proposed by integrating fault diagnosis with protection relay coordination strategies. An automated fault diagnosis method is developed using three staged radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) in which the first RBFNN determines the fault distance from each source, the second RBFNN identifies the exact faulty line and the third RBFNN determines the circuit breakers that must be open or close for isolating the faulty zone. After identifying the exact faulty line, then protection relay coordination is...
