The basic principle of relay protection is to identify
The basic principle of relay protection is to quickly identify and isolate the faulty part by detecting abnormal changes in electrical quantities (such as current, voltage, frequency, etc. ) in the power system to ensure the safe and stable operation of the power system and avoid. This protection is achieved through the application of various principles and fundamental concepts. In normal operation, the measured impedance is the load impedance; in the case of a metallic short-circuit, the measured impedance is converted into the line impedance, and the. The components used in the power system are usually dimensioned to withstand a short circuit current for one or three seconds but power system stability during short circuit current may be endangered already after 200ms.
