High impedance fault modeling and location for transmission line✰
A fault in a power system generates economic losses, security problems, social problems and can even take human lives. Therefore, it is necessary to have an efficient fault location strategy to reduce the exposure time and recurrence of the fault. This paper presents an impedance-based method to estimate the fault location in transmission lines. The mathematical formulation considers the distributed parameters transmission line model for the estimation of the fault distance, and it is obtained by the application of Gauss-Newton method. Said method considers available voltage and current measurements at both terminals of the transmission line as well as the line parameters. Moreover, the method can be used for locating high and low impedance faults. Additionally, it is proposed an adjustable HIF model to validate its performance, which allows to generate synthetic high impedance faults by setting specific features of a HIF from simple input parameters. The error in fault location accuracy is under 0.1% for more than 90% of the performance test cases. The easy implementation of this method and encouraging test results indicate its potential for real-life applications. © 202

Direct power compensation in AC distribution networks with SCES systems via PI-PBC approach
Here, we explore the possibility of employing proportional-integral passivity-based control (PI-PBC) to support active and reactive power in alternating current (AC) distribution networks by using a supercapacitor energy storage system. A direct power control approach is proposed by taking advantage of the Park?s reference frame transform direct and quadrature currents ( id and iq ) into active and reactive powers (p and q). Based on the open-loop Hamiltonian model of the system, we propose a closed-loop PI-PBC controller that takes advantage of Lyapunov?s stability to design a global tracking controller. Numerical simulations in MATLAB/Simulink demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of the proposed controller, especially for parametric uncertainties.Fil: Gil González, Walter.

Intelligent fault detection system for microgrids
The dynamic features of microgrid operation, such as on-grid/off-grid operation mode, the intermittency of distributed generators, and its dynamic topology due to its ability to reconfigure itself, cause misfiring of conventional protection schemes. To solve this issue, adaptive protection schemes that use robust communication systems have been proposed for the protection of microgrids. However, the cost of this solution is significantly high. This paper presented an intelligent fault detection (FD) system for microgrids on the basis of local measurements and machine learning (ML) techniques. This proposed FD system provided a smart level to intelligent electronic devices (IED) installed on the microgrid through the integration of ML models. This allowed each IED to autonomously determine if a fault occurred on the microgrid, eliminating the requirement of robust communication infrastructure between IEDs for microgrid protection. Additionally, the proposed system presented a methodology composed of four stages, which allowed its implementation in any microgrid. In addition, each stage provided important recommendations for the proper use of ML techniques on the protection problem. The proposed FD system was validated on the modified IEEE 13-nodes test feeder. This took into consideration typical features of microgrids such as the load imbalance, reconfiguration, and off-grid/on-grid operation modes. The results demonstrated the flexibility and simplicity of the FD system in determining the best accuracy performance among several ML models. The ease of design’s implementation, formulation of parameters, and promising test results indicated the potential for real-life applications
Sistema de distribución con penetración eólica
This article presents the results of the analysis of the studies of the operation of a modified IEEE-13 distribution feeder, which was built to scale in the laboratory at Universidad del Norte. In this article, we show the cases of the operating regimes of the modified IEEE-13, before the different levels of wind energy penetration. The modified IEEE-13 distribution feeder was built taking into account that each of the scaled modules and their generator-load will work under the conditions of the Universidad del Norte laboratory. An experimental methodology was used to compare the results obtained in the actual scaled model with the results of the simulations in specialized programs. The conclusions of the article show the wind energy that can be injected into an electrical system with conventional power generation so that it can maintain its operation complying with the current regulatory framework.

Localização de faltas para sistemas de distribuição ativos : metodologia analítica adaptativa baseada na estimativa da impedância aparente
Este documento apresenta uma metodologia analítica adaptativa para localização de faltas baseada na estimativa da impedância para sistemas de distribuição ativos. A metodologia proposta combina a informação fornecida por dispositivos eletrônicos inteligentes alocados na subestação principal e nos terminais de cada unidade de Recurso Energético Distribuído (do inglês Distributed Energy Resources - DER), o conhecimento da topologia da rede e os seus parâmetros para estimar a localização da falta. A característica adaptativa é dada pelo uso de modelos elétricos lineares para considerar o efeito das DER conectadas à rede, quando a informação fornecida pelos Dispositivos Eletrônicos Inteligentes (do inglês Intelligent Electronic Devices - IED) não é disponível. Adicionalmente, uma estratégia baseada na técnica Ladder é desenvolvida para estimar a contribuição de corrente desde as DER até o ponto de falta. Esta estratégia permite considerar vários geradores conectados e seus diferentes modos de operação. A metodologia proposta foi validada com o sistema IEEE 34 barras. Este sistema foi modelado no Alternative Transients Program (ATP) e modificado pela inserção de várias unidades DER. A metodologia proposta foi validada em vários cenários. Estes cenários avaliam o efeito da distância até a falta, resistência da falta, incerteza na carga, nível de penetração de DER, número de geradores conectados e erros nas medidas ou na estimação dos parâmetros das DER quando seus modelos forem utilizados. Para estas considerações, o desempenho da formulação proposta é satisfatório, apresentando erros menores do que 3%.This document presents an adaptive analytical impedance-based fault location methodology for active distribution systems. The proposal combines information provided by Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) located in the substation, each Distributed Energy Resources units terminal, the knowledge of the network topology as well as its parameters to estimate the fault location. Its adaptive feature is given by the use of linear analytical equivalent models to consider of DER effect in case the information provided by a local IED is not available. Additionally, a ladder-based technique is proposed to estimate the current contribution from of DER to the fault point. This process allows considering several DER connected and their different operation modes. The proposed methodology is validated on the IEEE 34-node test feeder. This system is modeled on ATP/EMTP and modified with the insertion of several DER units. The methodology is validated by considering several scenarios. These scenarios evaluate the effect of fault distance, fault resistance, load variation, DER penetration level, numbers of DERs connected and errors in the DER parameters. For these considerations, the proposed methodology performance is satisfactory, presenting fault location errors below 3%

Adaptive Impedance-Based Fault Location Algorithm for Active Distribution Networks
Modern fault location methods are robust; however, they depend strongly on the availability of the measurements given by Distributed Energy Resources (DER). If the communication or synchronism of this information is lost, the fault location is not possible. This paper proposes an adaptive impedance-based fault location algorithm for active distribution systems. The proposal combines information provided by Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) located at the substation, the knowledge of the network topology and parameters, as well as the distributed power sources, to estimate the fault location. Its adaptive feature is given by the use of a Distributed Energy Resources (DER) electrical model. This model is used to estimate the DER current contribution to the fault, in case the information provided by a local IED is not available. The method takes two types of DER technologies into account: Inverter non-interfaced DER (INIDER) and Inverter-interfaced DER (IIDER). The proposed method is validated on a modified IEEE 34-node test feeder, which was simulated with ATP/EMTP. The results obtained using the IEDs information, presented a maximum error of 0.8%. When this information is not available, the method’s performance decreases slightly, obtaining a maximum error of 1.1%. The proposed method showed better performance when compared with two state of the art methods, indicating potential use for real-life applications
