The invention relates to an adaptive adjustment method for a regional networked protection running status. The method comprises the following steps: dividing the running status of each logic subcell into sleeping, normal running, fault running and fault discrimination; setting each logic subcell as the sleeping status in an initial running; collecting information of positions and magnitudes of currents of each breaker and a corresponding disconnecting link; judging and setting a running status of each logic subcell according to the collected information; adjusting frequencies and calculating tasks according to each running status; and directly adjusting a setting status into an actual running status when a logic module for discriminating a running priority status judges that the actual running status of the cell is not consistent with the setting status. According to the invention, the execution priority of the subcell is determined and adjusted in real time by the running status of each logic subcell, so that enough running time resources for the logic subcells associated with a fault point are ensured. In addition, a requirement for the running performance of a protection device can be reduced by limiting the number of the logic subcells occupying lots of time resources.
