Abstract
This paper presents a modelling and experimental verification system for a group of induction motors during starting in medium voltage networks including its effects on other nearby running units in different operating conditions. The simulation model is based on a real-life case study which is an agricultural drain pump station. The dynamic model was built with MATLAB®/SIMULINK® where a thorough performance analysis can be achieved. For system verification, the simulation curve results were compared with real-life data curves which were recorded by a suitable device located on worksite. The verified model was used to perform six practical scenarios based on the real station’s operating instructions. For each studied scenario, a group of parameters such as voltage dip, its duration and voltage regulation are discussed in detail and compared in a tabular form considering the recommended adjustments for the protection relay settings
