Fault current contribution of different micro-sources and implications for protection4.1 Protection for safety4.2.1.1 Fuses4.3 Surge protectionAcknowledgementsThe concept of microgrids goes back to the early years of the electricity industry although the systems then were not formally called microgrids. Today, two types of microgrids can be seen: independent and grid connected. The protection requirement of these two types differs as the protection needs of an independent microgrid are intended for prote...See more on cdn techopen IEEE Power and Energy Society

Different approaches may be used to detect events in or near microgrids, properly operate, and reliably protect the microgrid, its equipment, and the surrounding
