<jats:p>Microgrid is a new phenomenon regarded to Distributed Generation (DG) penetration in the existing distribution systems. In this paper adaptive over current (OC) protection technique for a distribution system with DG penetration is proposed. This scheme takes into account general protection requirements, impacts of DG on protection system and protection coordination. A part of IEEE 13 nodes radial distribution test feeder is taken as a study case to test the effectiveness of the proposed scheme using ETAP software.Keywords: Distributed Generator, Microgrids, Adaptive overcurrent protection, Protection Coordination</jats:p>
