Abstract

This paper proposes the assessment method of the protection coordination index (PCI) for overcurrent protection relay and upstream relay. The protection coordination index is an indicator of how properly the equipment is protected by protective relay. The PCI is used to check the appropriateness of the protection coordination for both the component-wise and pair-wise. The protection index of each protection component of the integrated digital relay is assessed by a fuzzy logic controller. Then the device-level protection index and the composite protection coordination index between up and downstream relays are also assessed. Since the setting criteria of the overcurrent relays are given in a certain range rather than a crisp value, it is difficult to indicate the protection level of the protective system as an index. Currently, there is no way of knowing how well the overcurrent relay setting is. Thus, a method was proposed to evaluate the protection index of overcurrent systems using fuzzy logic. This is the unique research result of this paper.
