Directional Relays

Directional Relays: Selective protection cannot be achieved with time graded overcurrent protection systems in ring or loop systems as well as in radial circuits with two end power supply. A…

Directional Overcurrent Protection Principle

Directional Overcurrent Protection Principle: For the main bus-bars in the power stations, due to their importance in the operating conditions, it is required that the disconnection be without any delay…

Directional Static Overcurrent Relay

Directional Static Overcurrent Relay: For obvious reasons of obtaining selectivity overcurrent relays are made directional. Directional static overcurrent relay senses direction of power flow by means of phase angle between…

Classification of Relays

Classification of Relays: The protective relay may be defined as an electrical device interposed between the main circuit and the circuit breaker in such a manner that any abnormality in…
