description Fault diagnosis is of critical importance to the safety of power electronic devices in DC microgrids. To detect and isolate different component faults in DC microgrids, this paper introduces a comprehensive protection scheme using reduced-order unknown input observers (ROUIOs). As opposed to conventional protection strategies, the proposed method provides a centralized fault detection and isolation (FDI) solution for DC microgrids that covers multiple faults occurring in different components in a unified process. Moreover, it reduces the complexity of observer model and relaxes the requirements of measurement signals compared with existing observer-based FDI methods for DC microgrids. To this end, the state-space model of a multi-terminal DC microgrid with different faults is first established. On this basis, a bank of ROUIOs are designed with the aim of classifying different component faults in the system. At last, the performance of the proposed FDI method is verified through numerical simulations with MATLAB/Simulink and hardware tests. Test results show that the proposed method can accurately detect and isolate different component faults in DC microgrids in a short response time of 1 ms.
