Abstract
Distance relay response in the presence of a converter dominated microgrid system has been analyzed in this paper. Converter structure and control mechanism are presented and a new method is proposed to limit fault currents in faulted phase/phases by reducing the converter output voltage. A method of analyzing unsymmetrical supply voltage using symmetrical component theory is proposed, where it has been assumed that voltage source converter (VSC) supplies unbalanced voltages in the event of a fault. Performance of distance relays with Mho characteristics are evaluated in a radial distribution feeder for both phase and earth unbalanced faults. The results are validated through PSCAD simulation and MATLAB calculations

Citation countsare sourced monthly from Scopus and Web of Science citation databases.
These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science generally from 1980 onwards.
