In this work, super conducting Fault Current Limiter is proposed to protect the energy storage system in a micro grid. Energy storage systems (ESSs) are enabling technologies for well-established and new applications such as power peak shaving, stability purpose, integration of renewable energies. The possible advantages of resistive Superconducting Fault Current Limiter (SFCL) as a means to limit the adverse effect of DG on distribution system protection and their effectiveness will be demonstrated. When a short-circuit fault happens at the connecting line, the resistive SFCL will be send the signal to Energy storage systems (ESSs) the included in the micro-grid. Accordingly, the switching between the master DG’s two control patterns can be flexibly performed, and further the micro-grid system is expected to achieve a smooth transition between its grid-connected and islanded modes. The resistive SFCL has been noticed as the best solution to limit fault current effectively. However, the application of the resistive SFCL in the power system affects the protective coordination of the existing protective devices and can deviate their operation time from the original one. The simulation results are obtained using MATLAB/SIMULINK software.
