The power system equipment employed in generation, transmission and distributionof electrical power is prone to accidents, some of which can be very disastrous. Such
accidents are inevitable due to deterioration of insulation, lightning stroks, entry of birds and
rodents into the equipment and human error in system operation. The capital investment putin a power system is large. To save this equipment from abnormal system running conditions
and breakdowns generally known a “faults” and to ensure satisfactory operation of power
supply system, constant watch is required to be had on the equipment and running
conditions. n development of abnormal conditions ! faults a very quick assessment !analysis of condition and remedial action is required to be taken so much so that it generally
becomes humanly impossible to do so before taking place of damage to equipment ! property and life. "s such, special equipment referred as protective #ear equipment isrequired to be employed to sense the trouble and disconnect the faulty equipment section
from the rest of the system in time to minimi$e the trouble.
The power supply system consists of generating stations, transmission lines,substations, distribution lines, distribution substations and the distribution mains etc.
%ifferent relays ! schemes are employed for the various equipment used in the power system
based on principles most suited to the particular circumstances. The scope of the presentassignment is to discuss the protection relays schemes and related sub&ect as applied to the
transmission ' distribution lines and substations.
1-0 TYPES OF FAULTS
The types of faults can be broadly classified into (i) three phase, (ii) double phase to ground
(iii) phase to phase (iv) phase to ground and (v) three phase to ground ma&ority of faults are phase to ground in general.
2-0 ESSENTIAL OF PROTECTION
*.+ The protection is required to be reliable to ensure safety of equipment, property and
life and proper functioning of the unfaulted system. There are many components in a
protection in operative or mal operative. Though complete reliability isimpossible to achieve but it can be increased to great etent by taking following
measures
(i) /se of very good quality relays.
(ii) "ppropriate application(iii) 0roper application of 1Ts ' 0Ts.
(iv) 0roper maintenance and frequent ' regular checking and testing.
(v) 2mploying well trained staff to handle the equipment.(vi) /se of ferrules ' numbering to 3dentify wires ! cables and terminals to
ensure proper handling during maintenance ! testing.
(vii) 0roper '.1. supply arrangement and its frequent maintenance.

(viii) "nalysis of trippings and takings appropriate measures such as changing the
settings as demanded by the situation4.(i) Supervision of 0T, 1T supplies and trip healthy circuits.
() 5aintaining proper environment e.g. temperature, moisture etc.
(i) 0roper coordination of protective gear schemes.
2-1 Se"ecti3it$
verlapping $ones of protection are arranged to ensure protection of each ' every
part of the system. 6hile proper selectivity on the part of these overlapping $ones ! protection schemes may ensure proper functioning of the power system, improper
selectivity may cause unnecessary plant outage. The schemes are classified into two
on this basis-(i) Unit S$ste!4 (Such as differential protection)
• These are absolutely selective.
(ii) 7on /nit Systems (Such as over current)
• These are relatively selective.
Some of the points which may increase selectivity if taken care are-
(a) 0roper application of 1.Ts., 0.Ts. and protection schemes.
(b) 2nsuring desired operating characteristics.
(c) 0roper co-ordination of overlapping $ones.
2-2 Spee* o% Opeation45
The protection should operate quickly to limit the etent of damage. 8ast clearanceof fault improves systems stability also. 9ut, this should not be at the cost of
selectivity as in that case mal -trippings will take place causing unnecessary andfrequent supply interruptions and at times, deteriorate the system stability as well.
2-6 Sensiti3it$
Sensitivity, is a measure of impedance presented by protection to the current and
voltage transformers. 3f this current high, the ratio ' phase angle errors of instrumenttransformer will increases and the effective settings of protection will go up. The
protection should be sensitive enough to ensure its reliable operation under minimum
fault conditions and stable during maimum load ! through fault condition.
2-7 8ones o% Potection4
:one of protection is the part of system protected by a certain protection scheme.These $ones are arranged to overlap each other to avoid blind spots and ensure
complete protection. The $one boundaries generally correspond to the locations of
1T' 6here the 1Ts are located on both the side of 1.9s., the $ones naturally
overlap but otherwise blind spots occur. This problem is overcome by some of $one provision.

The relay operation is influenced by -
(i) "mpere - turns developed by relay operating coil,
(ii) Si$e of air gap between core and armature,
(iii) Cestraining force on the armature-
These are inherently instantaneous, but small time delays of the order of +DD ms can be
easily produced by magnetic damping. Slugs (bends of conducting material such as copper)are provided at armature and or at the 4heel4 end of the relay so as to achieve delay in build
up of flu and its decay to enable delay at pick - up and at drop out respectively.
6-1 In*&ction Disc T$pe
These have either shaded pole or watt - metric type electro - magnets and discs. These work
on 8erraris principle (a torque is produced by two flued with phase displacement between
them which is proportional to the produce of their magnitudes and phase displacement).

These relays (8ig.E) are etensions of induction disc type relays. They are used for very high

6-6 Reactance an* M@O Re"a$s
Ceactance and 5; type relays ate produced by manipulating current and voltage coilarrangement and relative phase displacement angles between the various flues. The induction cup
relays can be made to measure pure reactance or impedance.
6-7 Ba"ance* Bea! T$pe
These are similar to attracted armature type. 7ow a- days they are superseded by moresophisticated induction disc and induction cup type relays. The limitations of these relays were
poor reset ! operate ratio, susceptibility to phase displacement between the two energi$ingquantities.

0olari$ed %.1. moving coil relays are amongst most sensitive and are widely used for sensitive
and accurate measurement. They are used for distance and differential protections. 9eing
inherently suitable for %.1. only, they are used in 1T ! 0.T circuiteries with rectifier arrangement.
These relays are however more epensive then the induction cup type.

This is also an etension of attracted armature type with a difference that it is polari$ed and more
sensitive. They are inverse of moving coil type as the coil here is stationary and iron armature is
movable. Stationary coil arrangement affords ample winding space and a robust relay there by permitting very high with stand to pickup ratio.

;-0 SECONDARY SYSTEM PROTECTION
The secondary substations ( GGkH ' 9elow) generally vampires a row in coming and outgoing
lines with step - down transformers. The GG kH and ** kH ("lso *I.F kH tc.) sides are generallycontrolled by minimum oil and bulk oil circuit breakers if the capacity of transformers is F 5H"
or more otherwise ruses are J generally employed. The ++ kH side is controlled through ++ kHswitchgear.
Harious makes of + 3kH switchgears in use in /0S29 are
(a) 2nglish 2lectric, (b) #.2.1. (c) 9.3.1.. (d) 1romptons ' #reeves (e) 7.#.2.8. (8) Kyoti(g) Siemens, (h) Switchgear ' (&) 9.;.2.L. (k) Ceyrol (l) South wales corp. (m) Holtas
(n) 8erguson ' 0ailen .
The trip principles used are generally three
(i) Trip coils operable directly from 1.T. secondary current.
(ii) Trip coils operable from secondary current through relay - 1alled series trip .
(iii) Trip coils operable from %.1. ( >E, ++DH etc.) battery through relay contacts -called shunttrip.
3n case (i) the tripping takes place when the current flows in trip coils eceeds the setting valueforcing the plunger there by to move which strikes the tripping - rod -mechanism.
3n case (ii) current, when in ecess of set value , causes the relay disc to rotate , on closing of relaycontacts, the instantaneous unit is energi$ed opening there by the crip coil shorting contacts. This
allows the fault current to flow through the trip coil and operate the mechanism. The trip coil
ratings are F " and > or +" for over current ' 2arth fault cases respectively.
The trip circuit is operated from %.1 battery through current relay in cases (iii) the trip coils are of
F" ' > or K " for over current ' earth fault cases.

These relays are used either as main or back - up protections.
(i) 3%5T CelaysLimits of accuracy as set by 3S *>*+ is shown in shows application to a
sectional radial feeder. 3t seems mat with assumed relay settings and
tolerances as per, the minimum permissible time grading interval for
successive locations works out to D.F seconds. This implies that with largenumber of sections and increased fault levels , the clearance time towards
source will be considerable with good quality relays (such as 22 1%# ++)
the time intervals can be reduced to D.*F to D.E seconds.
(ii Co!+ine* IDMT ' @i#) Set Instantaneo&s
"dding of high set 3nstantaneous relay is advantageous on long lines withsmall source impedance and on transformer feeders as it make possible to
reduce the tripping time under the maimum short circuit conditions. This
would allow shortening of grading time between successive breakers. The
effect is to reduce operating time to D.D+ sec in shaded areas. 6hileselecting over current unit setting, care has to be taken of 4transient over

of applications on transformers and transformer feeders,(iii) %efinite Time ver 1urrent
They are preferably where system fault current various widely (due to change in source
impedance). There being relatively small change in time with variation fault current, the grading of
several relays in series is easier ' surer.
These relays are also preferred on locations where high transient peaks of current are eperiencedin routine e.g. group of motors starting simultaneously and. direct on line.
The following points need attention
(a) The relay should have required setting range ' transient over reach.
J 3t should have high drop off to pick up ratio (say ODM to PDM) where it can seefaults of ad&oining section.
J 3t should have a continues thermal rating not less than rated current of the circuit
and a short time setting not less than maimum system fault current seen by the
relay for a duration equal to the maimum time delay setting possible on the relay.
=-1 Diectiona" O3e C&ent An* Eat) Fa&"t%irectional features improve selectivity. %irectional features can be introduced in ali the relaysdiscussed under I.+ above. This should be used where-
• 3nstantaneous protection is used and maimum back feed current is more than ODM of the
maimum for end current.
• 5aimum 9ack feed current is more than >FM of minimum for end current and time over
current units are used.
• 0ick up a desired below about twice the full load current, and the loan current is in the
directional unit non-trip direction.
These can be used on a bank of parallel operating transformer in the absence of unit protection.
This protection first for main or bank up on interconnected or ring main as (8ig.+F).

3mpedance relay is non-directional so a directional unit is required along with to make thescheme directionally selective. The relay can operate for terminal faults ecept for a three phase ne in which case the operation becomes uncertain. The difficulty also eists in
relation to susceptibility of relays to system power swings. 8urther, under eternal fault
condition. n an interconnected system it is possible for a sudden reversal of current to
take place when one 1.9 opens on a double circuit line and unless the timings of thedirectional and impedance relays are properly coordinated, a spurious tripping may take
place. 3n this case both the directional and impedance relays require slow operating and
fast resetting times.
3f only one impedance and one directional relay is used and switching is employed to
obtain $one 33 and $one 333 by means of timer than starting must be by means of directionalrelays. " directional relay is liable to operate under normal load conditions and therefore
such an arrangement is not very satisfactory.
(ii I!pe*ance it) M@O
This scheme is less prove to normal loads and power swings. ;owever, some problems
are encountered as regards directional control as discussed earlier.
(iii Reactance it) M@O
The difficulties here are also similar to the ones discussed above. The use or reactance
relay is particularly suited to short lines having high source to line impedance ratio since it
can operate down to a lower voltage on account of the fact that reactance relay obtains its polari$ation input from system current and not the voltage. The reach of relay does not
vary with fault resistance theoretically. ;owever when fault resistance are comparable, the
reach of the relay is modified by the value of the load and its p.f and it may either over-reach or under-reach. "lso, when the fault current is being fed from both ends of a line
with two current not in phase, the fault resistance will appear as comple impedance. Tthis
will positive on higher source angle side relay, causing the relay to under reach and
negative on the lower source angle side causing this relay to over reach.

9eing inherently directional, the use of 5; relay avoids use of separate directional relayand therefore the difficulties associated with it. The reach point varies with the fault angle

1.T input tc .To 1.T approimates to a current source and therefore primary windingimpedance can be neglected,
1.Ts can be two types vi$.< ;igh reactance or low reactance type. The first one is wousid
primary type and the second one toroidal type.
The eciting current depends upon core material used and amount of flu required for a
certain burden. This may be obtained directly from magneti$ing characteristic since thesecondary e.m.f and therefore the flu developed is proportional to the product of secondary
current and burden impedance. The core material used in 1Ts are
(i) ;ot rolled silicon steel and cold rolled silicon steel.
(ii) 7ickel iron alloy. The knee point occurs at high flu density in case of (i) and (ii) and
are used for protection 1.T and at low flu density in case (iii) and this is used for

The H.Ts are used to provide proportional voltage in secondary circuit at the same time
isolating secondary circuit from the primary electrically.
The H.Ts are required to maintain protection accuracy between FM of rated J voltage and the
highest possible system voltage depending upon the system being effectively earthed andnon- effectively earthed.
" secondary winding is connected in broken or open delta for use in earth fault protection
whenever such a protection is required to be used. 3n that case two windings may be required
to be had in the H.T., the second winding connected in broken delta.

/2-0 RECENT TRENDS
9efore +PODVs electric magnetic relays have been in use universally, through static relays hadcome in eistence much earlier. The power system having electromagnetic and static relays still
continue to have them. 3t is because mainly of two reasons, vi$
(i) The protection systems using electromagnetic and static relays are functioning in a verygood manner,
(ii) Ceplacement of these systems, which are very large in number, involves huge cost apart from
etensive work required in carrying out of the same. ;owever where ever replacement is
called for, the same is being done in line with the current technology. +POD?s saw a trendtowards use of individual solid state relays in place of electromagnetic ones for each
protective function.
6ith the introduction of microprocessor based multifunction digital protective relays in +POD?s,
the trend has changed and this technology is being preferred now a days in place of use of 4solid
state relays.

own operating status. "ny potential malfunctioning is immediately identified and
reported to the distributed 1omputer 1ontrol System (%1S)! 0rogrammable Logic
1ontroller (0L1). " protective relaying system is required to operate only in case of
abnormal condition of running of power system ! equipment and therefore, anymalfunctioning of earlier types could be detected only on routine testing or on its failing
to operate when it was required to operate. The self monitoring feature of 50C make is
much advantageous,
(ii) Co!!&nication4 The digital relays are provided with serial data parts based on established
protocols compatible with the %1S ! 0L1 communication protocol used at the plant. This
allows these relays to use digital communication scheme to communicate to plant control system.
(iii) M&"tip"e Potecti3e F&nctions4 The older relays required an individual relay for each protective function. The digital relays provide multiple protective functions in one relay
there by reducing panel space and wiring costs,
(iv) Se"%5 Ca"i+ation4 %igital relays are provided with self- calibration routine which
can be initiated by selecting relay calibration mode in soft ware programming of therelay.
(v) Po#a!!a+"e Set points4 %efining $ones of protection for each primary and backuprelay, calculating settings, performing co-ordination analysis etc needed eperienced
engineers for application of previous type relay systems.
3n case of 50C this is a simpler &ob since digital relay uses widows based soft
ware programmed which provides tutorials and recommended set points for each
protective relay function based on system characteristics. 5ost of the soft ware
programmers also provide graphic display worksheets showing time currentcharacteristics of the relays in the form of graph to simplify co-ordination amongst multi
protective functions contained in one relay.
(vi) 2vent Storage O to +D selected wave forms can be stored by digital relays on anoscillograph record. This will show the condition of each of the selected wave
forms before and after the protective relay has operated. This information is
valuable as it helps determining the reason of operation of relay and cause of tripping. .
