Relay protection sensitivity and operating value
Relay protection calculations determine the threshold values and parameters for the protective relays based on the substation's operational and design requirements. These calculations are vital in establishing the sensitivity, selectivity, and reliability of the relay. One of the main requirements to relay protection is the sensitivity requirement, which implies consistent tripping during the short circuit (s c) events in the protected zone. The sensitivity should be sufficient to ensure reliable protec-tion during s c at the end of its specified zone under. Protective relays and devices have been developed over 100 years ago to provide “lastline”of defense for the electrical systems. They are intended to quickly identify a fault and isolate it so the balance of the system continue to run under normal conditions.
