A probability analysis method is used to analyse fault characteristics and action mechanism of dominant faults, hidden misoperation and non-operation of the relay protection systems, and failure probability model of relay protection system is constructed and simplified. The effects of dominant faults, hidden misoperation and non-operation of the relay protection systems on the reduced power supply load power are analysed, and a probabilistic model for reduced power supply load power is constructed by three parts corresponding to dominant faults, hidden misoperation and non-operation. A probability calculation method of power supply risk occurrence due to hidden faults of relay protecttion system is proposed considering the fault probability of the relay protection systems, the frequency of the hidden faults occurring in operation period, the reduced power supply load power or load power outage, and the connection mode of the in-lines, out-lines and transformers in a substation. The feasibility and applicability of the proposed method for estimation of risk value probability of the relay protection systems is verified by two studied examples.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Power supply risk assessment method for relay protection system faults}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/102175/PDF/DOI%2010.1515aee-2016-0056.pdf}, doi={10.1515/aee-2016-0056}, keywords={reduced power supply load power, relay protection systems, risk value, power supply risk assessment}, }
