Abstract

Relevance of the research lies in the need to solve the existing problems arising in the field of relay protection of 6-10 kV distribution networks during the introduction of distributed generation sources.

The purpose. To analyze the influence of distributed generation sources on the operating modes of a 6-10 kV distribution network. To identify the problems of operation of relay protection devices in 6-10 kV distribution networks in the presence of distributed generation sources connected to the distribution network using an inverter.

Methods. The review and analyze of literary sources, as well as the analysis of international information exchange data is carried out.

Results. The article describes the relevance of the topic, examines in detail inverter sources of distributed generation from the point of view of their connection and impact on the distribution network; a comparative analysis of the use of traditional sources and sources of distributed generation in distribution networks, an analysis of their influence on the magnitude of currents is carried out.

Conclusion. The use of inverter-based distributed generation sources creates problems for the operation of relay protection devices due to the limitation of inverter capacity and variability of network topology. At present, for the existing problems, there are scientific developments to solve them with their inherent advantages and disadvantages.
