Entretanto, com a reestrutura??o do sistema el?trico, esta topologia vem modificando-se com a utiliza??o de geradores ao longo do sist ema de distribui??o (gera- ??o distribu?da) que proporciona diversos benef?cios por l ocalizar-se pr?ximo aos centros de consumo. Com isso, a inser??o de geradores distribu?dos, especialmente provenientes de fontes renov?veis, no sistema brasileiro tende a se torna r a cada ano mais comum. En- tretanto, esta nova configura??o do sistema traz novos desafi os concernentes ao controle, opera??o e prote??o. Um dos principais problemas da gera??o distribu?da nos sistemas de prote??o ? a forma??o de ilhamentos, que pode resultar em ris cos de seguran?a ?s pessoas e a rede de energia el?trica. Dentre as diversas t?cnicas de p rote??o de ilhamentos, as t?cnicas passivas destacam-se devido ao custo de implement a??o e simplicidade, sendo necess?rias apenas medi??es de tens?o e corrente para detec ??o de problemas no sistema. Prop?e-se neste trabalho um sistema de prote??o baseado na t ransformada wavelet com as fun??es de sobrecorrente, sub/sobretens?es e informa?? es dos transit?rios de falta para r?pida detec??o e identifica??o de situa??es de falta no sist ema. O esquema de prote??o proposto foi avaliado por meio de estudos de simula??o e expe rimental, apresentando de- sempenho similar aos m?todos de sobrecorrente e sub/sobret ens?o convencionais, por?m, com o adicional da detec??o do instante exato das faltas. / A typical electrical power system is characterized by centr alization of power gene- ration. However, with the restructuring of the electric sys tem, this topology is changing with the insertion of generators in parallel with the distri bution system (distributed gene- ration) that provides several benefits to be located near to e nergy consumers. Therefore, the integration of distributed generators, especially fro m renewable sources in the Brazi- lian system has been common every year. However, this new sys tem topology may result in new challenges in the field of the power system control, ope ration, and protection. One of the main problems related to the distributed generati on is the islanding formation, witch can result in safety risk to the people and to the power g rid. Among the several islanding protection techniques, passive techniques have low implementation cost and simplicity, requiring only voltage and current measuremen ts to detect system problems. This paper proposes a protection system based on the wavelet transform with overcur- rent and under/overvoltage functions as well as infomation of fault-induced transients in order to provide a fast detection and identification of fault s in the system. The propo- sed protection scheme was evaluated through simulation and experimental studies, with performance similar to the overcurrent and under/overvolt age conventional methods, but with the additional detection of the exact moment of the fault.
