Electrical networks are evolving and taking on more challenges as the inclusion of renewable energy and distributed generation units increase, specially at distribution levels. Big trends of generating electricity with alternative and renewable resources has promoted the formation of distribution networks subsystems or micro grids, capable of supplying their own electric demand and to export energy to the interconnected system, if necessary. However, the effects of these generation units into the network and into the microgrid as well are many, as harmonic distortion, voltage flickers and especially in electrical protections.
This paper provides an overview about implementation of renewable energy and distributed generation worldwide, as well as an introduction to microgrids concept and its main impacts and challenges into the electric systems. Finally, the main impacts of microgrid on protection equipments are presented at a distribution level, being adaptive protections one of the solutions to the dynamic changes of the electric system.

Las redes eléctricas están evolucionando y asumiendo más retos conforme incrementa la inclusión de energías renovables y unidades de generación distribuida, especialmente a niveles de distribución. La gran tendencia a generar electricidad con fuentes alternas y renovables ha impulsado la formación de subsistemas de distribución o micro redes, capaces de suplir su propia demanda eléctrica y exportar energía al sistema interconectado de ser necesario. Sin embargo, los efectos de la inclusión de estas unidades de generación sobre la red eléctrica y la misma micro red son varios, como distorsión armónica, oscilaciones de tensión y sobre todo, sobre las protecciones eléctricas.
Este artículo brinda un panorama actual de la implementación de energías renovables y generación distribuida a nivel mundial, así como una introducción al concepto de micro redes y sus principales impactos y desafíos en el sistema eléctrico. Finalmente, se presentan los principales impactos de las micro redes sobre los equipos de protección a nivel de distribución, siendo las protecciones eléctricas adaptativas una de las soluciones a los cambios dinámicos del sistema eléctrico.
