Protective Relay Basics
Fundamental concepts and terminology will be taught using the electromechanical overcurrent relay as a foundation and then these concepts will be expanded to modern numerical relays.
Types of Protective Relays
For high voltage circuits (say above 3·3 kV), relays and circuit breakers are employed to serve the desired function of automatic protective gear. The relays detect the fault and supply information to
Basic protection relay knowledge
Definite time delay means that the protection operate time dose not change or depend on the fault type or the fault current magnitude. Inverse time delay, on the other hand, depends on the current
