Power Systems Protection -Introduction
5. Power Systems Protection -Introduction
Why we need the Protection ?
¾ To detect abnormalities (faults).
¾ To eliminate such abnormality by
isolating smallest portion of the system
in a shortest period of time.
¾ To prevent injury to personnel.
¾ To prevent damage to Equipment.
¾ Enable Continuous service in
undamaged part of the network.
6. Power Systems Protection -Introduction
Protective Relay – What should it do ?
¾ Monitor system parameters continuously
(V, I, P, F)
¾ Operate quickly when necessary
(Dependability)
¾ Should not operate wrongly
(stability, discrimination)
To trip or not to trip ?
7. Power Systems Protection -Introduction
Protective System – What are the Requirements?
¾ Speed
The relay must operate at the required speed. It should neither be too slow which
may result in damage to the equipment nor should it be too fast which may result
in undesired operation. Damage can be Minimised.
¾ Sensitivity
The relaying equipment must be sufficiently sensitive so that it operates reliably
when required under the actual conditions that produces least operating tendency
and to detect all possible Shunt and series Faults.
¾ Selectivity
The relay must be able to discriminate (select) between those conditions for which
prompt operation is required and those for which no operation, or time delayed
operation is required. Isolate only Faulty Section without disturbing Healthy
Section.
¾ Reliability
The most important requisite of protective relay is reliability since they supervise
the circuit for a long time before a fault occurs; if a fault then occurs, the relays
must respond instantly and correctly. The Operation Capability of the Protection
System is summerised in “ reliability”, which includes both the security in fault
clearance and the security against undesired clearances. The security in fault
clearance is called dependability and the security against undesired clearances
is called Security.

Relay operation when a fault occurs
¾ Each Relay should Protect a specific
Zone in the System.
¾ If fault is inside its Zone, Relay should
operate and isolate the faulted Zone.
¾ If fault is outside zone, Relay should
not operate,
Some other Relay should operate and
isolate
13. Power Systems Protection -Introduction
What happens when a fault occurs
¾ Fault current flows through number of
Relays.
¾ Some of these Relays will start to
operate.
¾ Only one Relay related to particular fault
should trip and interrupt the fault
current.
¾ Remaining Relays will reset after above.

Power Systems Protection -Introduction
21. 1 ST GENERATION
FIRST GENERATION RELAYS :
THESE ARE ELECTRO MAGNETIC RELAYS
IN THIS NO OF ELECTROMAGNETIC RELAYS PROVIDED FOR ARRIVING
A SPECIFIC FUNCTION i.e EACH FUNCTION OF THE SCHEME HAVING A
SEPARATE RELAY. COMBINING ALL IS CALLED ONE PROTECTION
FUNCTION. NO OF RELAYS ARE MORE AND SPACE OCUPATION IS
MORE AND INTER CONNECTION WIRING DIAGRAM IS MORE.
DISADVANTAGES: ELECTROMECHANICAL RELAYS HAVE A LOT OF
MECHANICAL PARTS, WHICH MAY BECOME CLOGGED WITH DIRT OR
CORRODED DUE TO ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS, AFFECTING BOTH
OPERATION, CALIBRATION AND MOVEMENT OF THE DISKS. IT
REQUIRES PERIODICAL MAINTANENCE AND ADJUSTMENT.
22. 1 ST GENERATION
NEXT MODIFICATION :
ELECTRO MAGNETIC RELAYS WITH STATIC COMPONENTS
IN THIS SOME OF THE FUNCTIONS ARE DERIVED FROM STATIC
COMPONENTS PROVIDED ON THE PCB. IN THIS QUANTITY OF
ELECTROMAGNETIC RELAYS ARE REDUCED. COMBINING ALL IS
CALLED ONE PROTECTION FUNCTION. QUANTITY OF RELAYS ARE
REDUCED AND SPACE OCUPATION IS REDUCED SOME WHAT.
DISADVANTAGES: THE PCBs ARE MADE WITH TRANSISTORS AND ARE
BROUGHTOUT ITEMS WITH DIFFERENT MAKE. AFTER SOME TIME
THESE ARE TO BE REPLACED FOR CORRECT OPERATION WITHOUT
DRIFT. THE PCBs & COMPONENTS PERFORMANCE MAY BE AFFECTED
DUE TO DIST & DIRT. IT REQUIRES PERIODICAL MAINTANENCE AND
ADJUSTMENT.
23. 2 ND GENERATION
SECOND GENERATION RELAYS :
STATIC RELAYS WITH TRANSISTORS
In this all of the functions are derived from static components provided on the
PCB. In this initially each function is derived with separate static relay.
Quantity of static relays are more but space occupation is less. Combining all
is called one protection function. Inter connection wiring diagram is still not
reduced.
DISADVANTAGES: Static relays generally employ a lot of electronic
components made by other manufacturers. If these electronic components are
not tested with rigorous quality control, the chances of failure of components
during the relay life time may exist. A reliable DC power source within the
relay, to electronically measure circuits has to be generated from available
external power sources. Most of the static relays employ series, shunt, or
switched mode power supply designs. For a variety of reasons, if these power
supplies fail, the measuring circuits are inoperative and the relay is dead for
any measurements. No protection is available to the network. Most of the static
relays in use do not have the means to detect the failure of power supply and
initiate an alarm. It requires periodical Maintenance.
24. 2 ND GENERATION
NEXT MODIFICATION :
STATIC RELAYS ON SINGLE PCB
IN THIS ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS ARE DERIVED FROM STATIC
COMPONENTS PROVIDED ON THE PCB. IN THIS ALL STATIC RELAYS
ARE TAKEN TO ONE MASTER PCB AND EACH FUNCTION PCB WILL BE
ADD ON CARD TYPE. SO TOTAL RELAY IS ONE BUT FOR EVERY
FUNCTION IS PCB IS AVAILABLE AND CONNECTED TO MAIN PCB.
SPACE OCCUPATION IS LESS. COMBINING ALL IS CALLED ONE
PROTECTION FUNCTION. NO INTER CONECTION WIRING. THIS IS PART
OF MAIN PCB.
DISADVANTAGES:
DISADVANTAGES ARE SAME AS ABOVE.
25. 3 ND GENERATION
THIRD GENERATION RELAYS :
STATIC RELAYS WITH ICs
IN THIS NO OF COMPONENTS ARE REDUCED AND BROUGHT OR BUILT
IN ONE INTEGRATED CHIP. DUE TO THIS THE RELAY SIZE IS REDUCED
AND SOME OF THE FUNCTIONS ALSO TAKEN IN TO ONE INTEGRATED
CHIP. THIS ALSO BUILT IN ONE PCB. ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS ARE
DERIVED FROM STATIC COMPONENTS PROVIDED ON THE PCB. IN THIS
ONLY MASTER PCB IS AVAILABLE, NO SEPARATE PCB FOR EACH
FUNCTION , ALL ARE INTEGRATED IN ONE PCB. PROBLEMS ARE SOME
WHAT REDUCED. SPACE OCCUPATION IS LESS. ONE PROTECTION
FUNCTION ONLY ONE RELAY AND ALL FUNCTIONS ARE INTEGRATED.
NO INTER CONNECTION WIRING DIAGRAM.
26. 3 ND GENERATION
NEXT MODIFICATION :
SEMI NUMERIC RELAYS
IN THIS SOME FUNCTIONS ARE CAN BE PROGRAMMABLE AND
INTERFACE THROUGH PC. SOME ICs ARE HAVING THE FACILITY
TO INTERACT THROUGH COMMUNICATION PORT. IT IS SOME
WHAT MODIFICATION TO IC BASED RELAYS. IN THIS SOME
FUNCTION CAN BE ENABLED AND DISABLED, BASED ON THE
REQUIREMENT.
27. 4 ND GENERATION
MICROPROCESSOR BASED NUMERICAL RELAYS
¾ IN THIS ALL OF THE FUNCTIONS ARE BROUGHT ON
ONE IC. THE FOURTH GENERATION PROCESSOR-
BASED RELAYS, DO HAVE THE WATCHDOG FEATURE,
WHICH FACILITATES THE CHECKING OF POWER
SUPPLY FAILS, CLOCK FREQUENCIES, AND OTHER
PATTERNS. MOST OF THESE RELAYS HAVE AUTO TEST
FEATURES WHICH TEST THE ELECTRONIC CIRCUIT
FUNCTIONS AT REGULAR INTERVALS &
AUTOMATICALLY.
