Protective Relaying
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
Role of Protection
Protective Relaying is the most important

feature of power system design aimed at
minimising the damage to equipment and
interruption to service in the event of faults. It
is therefore a co-factor among other factors
resorted to improve reliability of power system.
Energy Automation
The Purpose of Protection

No. 1 with
Energy Automation
The protection can not prevent system faults,

But it can:
Limit the damage caused by short

circuits
While:
Protecting people and plant from

damage
Selectively clearing faults in
miliseconds
Protecting plant from overload
conditions
Power system must operate in a safe manner at all times.

Energy Automation
Principles of Relaying
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
Since protective relaying comes into action at the

time of equipment distress, a certain safeguard is
necessary in the unlikely event of its failure to act at
the hour of need. Hence, two groups of protective
schemes are generally employed a)
Primary Protection
b)
Back-up Protection
Primary Protection is the first line of defense,

whereas back-up relaying takes over the protection
of equipment, should the primary protection fail.
Energy Automation
Primary Protection
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
The Primary Protection has following characteristic

features 1.
It has always a defined zone of operation.
2.
It should operate before any back-up protection

could operate, therefore, it should be faster in
operation.
3.
It should be able to completely isolate the fault

from all the current feeding sources.
4.
Energy Automation
It should be stable for all operating conditions.
Back-up Protection
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
1.
Back-up protection should provide sufficient time

for the primary protection to perform its duty.
2.
Back-up protection covers a wider zone of

protection. Therefore, there is always a possibility
of large scale disturbance, when back-up relays
operate.
3.
Under primary protection failure, several back-up

relays may operate for complete isolation of fault.
Energy Automation
Reasons of Primary Protection Failure

No. 1 with
Energy Automation
Primary protections failure could be due to any of

the following reasons 1. Current or Potential Transformer failure
2. Loss of Auxiliary Control Voltage
3. Defective Primary Relays
4. Open Circuits in Control & Trip Coil
5. Failure of Breaker
It is therefore logical that back-up relays should not
utilise any of the above items as common with
primary relays.

Energy Automation
Zones of Protection
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
To limit the extent of the power system that is disconnected when a fault
occurs, protection is arranged in zones
Zones of protection should overlap, so that no part of the power system
is left unprotected
Location of the CT connection to the protection usually defines the zone
Unit type protections have clear zones reach e.g Diff. Relay, REF relay
Zone reach depends on measurement of the system quantities e.g OC ,
EF, distance relays . The start will be defined but the extent (or reach) is
subject to variation, owing to changes in system conditions and
measurement errors.

Contact Terms
No. 1 with

Contacts provide electrical outputs for tripping and remote

indication purposes
Self-reset
The contacts remain in the operated condition only while the controlling quantity is
applied, returning to their original condition when it is removed.
Hand or electrical reset
These contacts remain in the operated condition after the controlling quantity is removed.
They can be reset either by hand or electrically by an auxiliary electromagnetic element
A 'make' contact
is one that closes when the relay picks up
A break contact
is one that is closed when the relay is de-energised and opens when the relay picks up.

Influence of the Tap Changer
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
Problem:
The tap changer modifies the transformer ratio

additional error in the differential current
Example:
tap changer c = 16%
c
2 c
c = 0,16 I diff 0 ,087 I res
I diff I res
If IN.Tr. is flowing the additional Idiff is approx. 17,5% of the transformer

current. With slope 1 = 0,25 there is the pick-up threshold at 50%.
The security margin is for steady state conditions high enough.
Considering transient conditions (CT-influence) a small increasing of
slope 1 (to 0,3) is recommended.
Recommendation for voltage setting:
UN, New
Umax Umin
= 2
= UN (1 - c2 )
Umax + Umin
c: steps of tap changer (p.u.)

Pick up of Differential Protection

No. 1 with
Energy Automation
For triggering of internal tasks, events and fault records the differential
protection function needs a pickup information. This pickup becomes
active, if the differential current or the restraint current is over an internal
threshold (dotted line). Each external large current leads to a pickup.
Pickup doesnt always means internal failure!

Stabilising at Motor Starting

No. 1 with

Typical for motor starting is the starting current and the superimposed dc
component with a large time constant. The current transformers (ct) transfer
different this dc component. The result is a differential current and the risk of an
over-function is given.

Setting Recommendations
No. 1 with
Energy Automation
Power System Data 1
The setting of this parameters are important, because they are necessary for
the scaling and direction definition of the measurands. At the protection
object transformer the setting for star point Solid Earthed leads to a zero
sequence elimination. Isolated leads to a direct current comparison
(without zero sequence consideration). This setting is only allowed at a really
free star point (no over voltage arrester, no Peterson coil).
At the protection object generator always the direct current comparison
method is active (no zero sequence elimination).
Setting values:
Under normal conditions the factory settings correspond with the practical
experiences.
Its not necessary to change these parameters.
At transformers with tap changer the inclination of SLOPE 1 should be
increased. The setting for the inrush detection can be final select during the
primary test. If we are on the limits (low setting value) an activation of
CROSSBL. 2. Harm. is recommended.
If are current transformer operates on their limit the pickup value Idiff > and die
slope 1 should be increased.
The Idiff >> - stage must be set over the maximum inrush current.
At generators and motors SLOPE 1 can be reduced (to 0,15), if the current
transformers are identical. At generators the Idiff>>-stage must be set over the
transient fault current (3 to 7 IN,G).
Additional at generators its also recommended an activation of increasing the

pickup
threshold during starting or at external faults (Start-Factor > 1).
