- Abstract
Electric power systems are becoming more complex. This is due to the widespread use of renewable energy sources (RES) and FACTS devices. At the same time, protection devices for equipment and automation of power systems are becoming subject to influence from new devices. The article pays attention to the study of such influence from the side of RES and FACTS devices on the operation of one of the most important automation systems ensuring the stable operation of the power system - out-of-step protection (OSP). At the first stage of the project, the main reasons for the difficulty of setting up resistance control devices of OSP in networks with FACTS devices and RES were identified, which are related to the fact that the parameters of these devices vary depending on the operation mode, therefore, the zone of the OSP resistance relay should also be changed. Based on the analysis, a new approach to the study of the functioning of OSP in power systems with FACTS devices and RES has been developed. The performed experimental studies confirm the theoretical research.
