INTRODUCTION This paper elaborates on the most common forms of microgrid control accomplished in modern protective relays for grids with less than 10 MW of generation. Inverter controls can be grouped into three categories: grid-following (GFL), grid-forming (GFM), and grid-supporting. GFL inverters are referred to as current control because the current is the physical quantity that is regulated. The first phase optimizes the power flow by minimizing the generators' active power loss while considering tolerable. The Relay block comprises two protection units, phase protection and earth protection. Abstract- Microgids are distributed energy source to provide environment friendly reliable and economic power to large rural area and small urban area.
This paper proposes an adaptive overcurrent protection scheme designed for a grid-connected network consisting of one main utility grid and three interconnected microgrids.

However, a key issue that has not been addressed in relevant studies is whether the large-scale grid connection of grid-following (GFL) and grid-forming (GFM) energy storage clusters will lead to new
The coordination between relays is carried out by MCC in a time-graded manner based on microgrid central protection and relay coordination
Due to the limited fault current and short lines across the microgrid, the voltage profile seen by relays across the microgrid for a particular fault is nearly the same; therefore, using voltage
We can also protect low voltage in microgrid using microprocessor based relay, which can also operate in both mode of operation and no any communication required and not depend on fault current

In grid-connected mode, directional overcurrent relay distin-guishes the forward and reverse direction faults. For proper co-ordination, a definite time delay is added in the reverse mode.
The objective function is to minimize the relay operation time for both primary and backup relays, while maintaining the condition of protection coordination using dual setting relays for microgrid
Protective relays are one of the key electrical components that detect faulty equipment. They, in essence, allow isolation of the faulty part to prevent cascaded failure throughout the grid .
