This chapter begins with reviewing protection of power system prior to the Smart Grid era and then proceeds to discuss power system protection under Smart Grid environment highlighting the expected benefits. The operating concepts of Smart Grid protection relays will then be explained followed by discussing intelligent fault circuit indicators (FCIs) for Smart Grid applications. Communication infrastructure that suits protection requirements will then be discussed. The architecture of Smart Grid protection system (SGPS) will be discussed highlighting the application of multiagent technology and the relationship between multiagent systems and IEC 61850. This will be further explained by using examples on development of smart adaptive protection systems for microgrids and smart distribution networks (DNs). Finally, the chapter will be concluded by presenting protection system architecture based on IEC 61850.
