Abstract

A correct representation of the dynamic load is vital for power system planning and operation. In a composite load model, different motor types have different protection schemes. In addition, motor types vary significantly in different building type. Existing load models are inadequate to handle the growing importance of protective devices in buildings. This work proposed a methodology to generate composite protection profiles in one-hour interval in one year, for different commercial buildings in representative cities from different climate zones. This work can be used to develop the composite protection model, and to study the aggregated performance of the protection of all the motor loads in the composite load model.
