Protective
relay

In electrical engineering, a protective

relay is a relay device designed to trip
a circuit breaker when a fault is
detected
What is the function
of protective relay?
The function of protective relaying
is to cause the p r o m p t removal
from service of any element of a
power system when it suffers a
short circuit, or when it starts to
operate in any abnormal manner
that might cause d a m a g e or
otherwise interfere with the
effective operation of the rest of
the system.
How do protective
relays work?
A protective relay is a switchgear
device that detects the fault a n d
initiates the operation of the circuit
breaker to isolate the defective
element from the rest of the
system. They are c o m p a c t a n d
self-contained devices which ca n
detect abnormal conditions.
What are the types
of protection relays?
Basic classification of protective
relays includes:
Electromagnetic Relays:
Armature. Induction cu p /
induction disc.
Static Relays: Analog input
signals are processed by solid
state devices.
Digital / Numerical Relays:
Uses p r o g r a m m a b l e solid
state devices based on digital
signal processing.
What are the main
features of good
protective relay?
The protective relays do not
eliminate the possibility of fault
occurrence on the power system
rather their circuit actions start only
after the fault has occurred on the
system. The main features of a
g o o d protective relaying are its
reliability, sensitivity, simplicity,
speed, a n d economy.

EXPERIENCE
The function of protective relaying is to cause the p r o m p t
removal fr om service of any element of a power system
when it suffers a short circuit, or when it starts to operate in
any a bn or ma l man ne r that mig h t cause d a m a g e or
otherwise interfere with the effective operation of the rest of
the system.
Even in low-level signal applications, accidents a n d faulty
UUTs c a n cause relay failures, a n d inrush currents, caused by
hot-switching capacitive loads, a n d voltage spikes, caused
by hot-switching inductive loads, accelerate relay aging.
