Abstract

Maintaining power system stability and normal operation are the most important roles of the protection system. Recently, wide-area protection (WAP) makes use of the wide system information and sends specific data to specific local locations to help them make their own decisions. This paper investigates, for the first time, the problem of false data injection (FDI) in WAP schemes. The problem is general in all WAP schemes. To perform this investigation, the underfrequency load shedding (UFLS) is considered as the case under study throughout this work. To show the generality of the problem in UFLS schemes, three different UFLS schemes are simulated using PSCAD and applied to the IEEE 39-bus system. The results show the FDI attacks affect the operation of the UFLS schemes and hence, affect the grid stability and operation.
