Multi-microgrid systems offer a versatile solution to many of the challenges including issues on power glitches, grid flow optimization, stability and protection system malfunction faced by traditional centralized power grids. By enhancing resilience, integrating renewable energy, improving efficiency, and supporting economic and environmental goals, they represent a forward-looking approach to modern energy management. Despite of technological progress in fault current detection, significant challenges oriented to false tripping and protection blinding in multi- microgrid structures compared to single microgrid topology still remain unresolved.

However, the protection and safety aspects of these grids remain unresolved due to the fault current magnitude, unnecessary tripping, and blinding of protection. In this paper, an adaptive differential protection system incorporated with an advanced graph algorithm is proposed for DC microgrid.
