Abstract

This paper presents a communication-assisted protection technique for dc microgrids. The technique, 
consist of a centralized fault detection, by use of the differential method; and a fault isolation strategy 
by coordinated operation of dc breakers and isolator switches. Hardware in the loop simulation is used 
to evaluate the proposed protection.
