Abstract
Power system protection is one of the prime concerns in the modern power system. The amount of expansion in consumption has put the power system to a halt lately, in the form of system failure, which results in an interruption in power supply and the worst-case scenario a blackout. The pieces of equipment often used function on high voltage rating and are in an operating mode for most of the time, so the chances of any catastrophic failure have ways remained a probability. To narrow these events and to protect the equipment, different strategies have been discussed in this paper to increase the life span and enhance the functioning of the power system. The system wasn't designed to handle the present-day challenges and changing the entire system isn't economical and feasible at once. Therefore, these clever solutions have emerged with time such as digital protection involving the latest type of relays like microprocessor-based relays and wide monitoring schemes that enhance the component's reliability and strengthen the protection of the power system network. This paper considers various power system protection strategies, and it also compares the aforesaid strategies with numerous parameters.
