Control and protection of equipment in power systems generally require a high information processing capability to cope with today's power system requirements. Then, new digital control and protection equipment have been developed using high-speed and high-precision processors.
Essential requirements for the new control and protection equipment are a multiprocessor architecture of distributed functions to retain sufficient computing power (fast and high-precision operations), and flexible and expandable hardware with high reliability. In multiprocessor architecture, it is important to determine how the distributed processors share the functions. By analysis and synthesis of relaying and control processings, we divided them into six processing circuits.
This paper proposes a multiprocessor architecture of distributed functions, and using 32-bit floating-point and 16-bit microprocessors depending on the computational requirements. In addition a digital filter for fast sampled data is described along with performance of a digital relay.
