Abstract :
Most electric utilities have adopted a set of standardized requirements for protection at the interface with a cogenerating industrial system. Typical utility requirements are reviewed, the basis for their formulation is explained, and practical ways for the industrial cogenerator to satisfy them are suggested. The discussion covers engineering planning, fault detection, islanding, dead circuit pickup, and manual synchronization
