ABSTRACT: Highly penetration of Distributed Energy Resources (DER)
on the grid systems nowadays makes the systems grow dynamically. The system
become more complex and the protection system become more complicated. The
protection relay should accommodate the system changes according to the system
conditions and topologies. As part of developmental aspect of Distributed
Artificial Intelligent, Multi Agent System (MAS) is a challenging
method for improving the intelligent properties of relay protection. This paper
introduces the use of MAS approach on radial distribution system protection
dominated with DER using dispersed adaptive rule-based protection supported by
distributed database agent. The simulation results confirmed that the proposed
algorithm can respond within 15.05 ms.
