Abstract

Distance relays are important in power system, because they are extensively used in transmission networks. Their duty is to clear fault as soon as possible. To do this job, a novel coordination between relays are vital, whereas it is a tedious and time consuming jobs in a multi-loop and complicated network.This paper, proposes a new PSO called Modified PSO (MPSO) will be proposed. The method is based on PSO but its searching technique is different
