Abstract

The protection system is an important component of microgrid operation and stability. The protection system must be capable of identifying faults, isolating the faulty sections, and ensuring continuity of the power supply to unaffected loads. The objective of this paper is to develop an efficient machine-learning fault detection and classification protection device capable of detecting low and high-impedance faults in AC microgrids. The protection device shall be adaptive to microgrid topology changes, bidirectional power flow, fault current levels, renewable energy resources faults infeed, stable under normal conditions, and fast tripping for low and high impedance faults. The protection device is a hybrid deep CNN-GRU-directional relay model. The paper adopts a protection approach for accuracy, stability against reverse direction faults, and noise immunity when evaluating this efficient model along with other machine learning models using MATLAB.
