Teleprotection - Introduction
What is it ? -> Tele-Communication + Protection - Signalling Where is it used ? -> Mainly at the higher and highest voltage levels Why is it used ? -> Clearance of faults within the shortest possible time

Total Fault-Clearance-Time
Time delay between fault occurrence and line tripping The fault-clearance time results from:

Target: TTotal
= less than 100 ms, Worst Case = 4.5 to 5 cycles max. (50 Hz)

Permissive tripping moderate transmission time moderate to high security moderate to high dependability Direct tripping moderate transmission time very high security very high dependability
Digital Networks
High capacity = large number of channels Basic channel capacity = 64 kbit/s PDH (Plesiochronous digital hierarchy) Multiplexing into 2 Mbit/s ( 30 channels)
8 Mbit/s (120 channels) etc. ( ..... channels)
SDH (Synchronous Digital Hierarchy) Multiplexing of n * 64 kbit/s or n * 2 Mbit/s into 155 Mbit/s Cross-connect functionality Radio or optical fibre links
etc.
