Abstract

In developing countries, demand for 24x7x365 availability of reliable power is on rise. On the other side distribution utilities in these countries, finds growing deployment of renewables driven distributed generation. This on one side, creates complex and challenging network topologies, but in process ensures better availability of power with integration and adoption of advanced control & automation. Under such scenario, integrated dual side voltage sensing reclosers helps distribution utilities in achieving different Fault Detection Isolation & Restoration (FDIR) schemes with smaller footprint in simple but performance efficient and cost-effective way. This paper, after brief introduction on power distribution improvement schemes, based on author experience highlights the application benefits of integrated dual voltage sensing reclosers for smart grid – FDIR initiatives
