The problem of feeder automation of distribution network containing inverter-based distribution generation is researched. The structure of distribution network changes because of distribution generation accessing, which will affect the function of feeder automation system. To solve this problem, the parameters and characteristics of the distributed generation are studied, as well as the inverter control strategy and output characteristics. By summarizing the research done by some experts and scholars, taking photovoltaic power for example, the paper establishes a simulation model in Matlab/Simulink environment, and proposes an equivalent model of inverter-based distribution generation according to the parameters and control strategy of grid-connected inverter. The model is applicable to fault analysis of distribution network. Based on the parameters of the model, the influence of distributed generation accessing on feeder automation is analyzed. According to the analysis results, the paper proposes the scheme of feeder automation applying to distribution network containing inverter-based distribution generation. Finally, the scheme is simulated.
