Purpose
Direct Current (DC) grids are emerging electric power systems with remarkable potential benefits. The High-Voltage DC (HVDC) grid improves reliability and efficiency of bulk power transmission systems and also facilitates grid integration of large-scale renewable generation systems. The medium-voltage and low-voltage DC grids and the DC microgrid facilitate integration of distributed energy resources. However, unresolved protection issues have constrained utilization of DC grids. The existing protection systems (relays) do not fully protect DC grids against adverse effects of faults (short-circuits) and disturbances.
