description | Protection is widely used in all different voltage levels of the electrical power
system: generation, transmission, sub-transmission and distribution etc. An overcurrent
relay is a protection that is widely implemented in the sub-transmission and distribution
systems due to its competing cost. Depending on the operative conditions and fault
locations in a mesh system, the load or fault currents can circle in or out of the
overcurrent relay's protective zone. Hence directional overcurrent relays are used to
discriminate whether the fault is located in or out of the protective zone. The propose of
coordinating the overcurrent relays is to encounter settings that minimize the operation
time for faults within the protective zone and at the same time offering pre-specified
timed backup for relays that are in the adjacent zones. So the maximum fault current
that the relay detects in its protective zone must be greater than the fault currents in
the adjacent zones. The above condition is met in radial systems, one source mesh
systems and two source mesh systems where the sources are located symmetrically at
the end. But the above condition is not always met in the multi-source mesh systems
due to the numerous operative configurations. Since the systems cannot operate in the
absence of protection, other protection principles must be used, i.e. impedance relay. It
is then said that for certain operative configurations of mesh system, overcurrent
protection principle is out of range or in other words reaches the limit of its protection
principle [1]. |
