Implementing an intelligent error back propagation (EBP) relay in PSCADTM/EMTDC 4.2.1

Power Systems Computer Aided Design (PSCADtrade) is a graphical user interface for the Electromagnetic Transient Direct Current (EMTDC) type program. PSCADtrade/EMTDC is used in this paper to simulate the injection of static single-line-to-ground (SLG) faults located at 120%, 100%, and 80% of the cable length on the ship, and protect the electrical system using the error back propagation (EBP) algorithm-based relay. Sequential and combinational digital logic is used to design and implement the EBP Relay in PSCAD^TM/EMTDC.
