What is the use of reactance relay?

reactance relay is used for distance protection of the transmission line....


What is the difference between diffrencial relay and a distance relay?

They're completely different, used for different applications (usually). A distance relay uses both current and voltage. A differential relay uses only current. A differential relay usually has harmonic restraint capability, while distance relays ideally track system frequency. Differential relays require fast operation, while distance relays may not be required to operate as quickly. Distance relays have more issues with operating for out of zone problems than differential relays. There are many more, but this gives an idea.


Why impedance relay is called as distance relay?

because the distance is propotional to the impedance of the line ,so the operation of the impedance relay comes into picture when the impedance seen by the relay is less than the pre-setting value.When a fault occurs ,the current increases to a high value and so the Impedence decreases and the relay actuates


How does a distance protective relay work?

The distance relay trips when a fault occurs at a distant or a remote place in the electric transmission line. There is a mechanism based on the impedance calculation of the distance of the transmission line after which it is accurately known where the fault has taken place. Thus the distance protective relay can trip the circuit & prevent the fault to be carried further and also can indicate the location of the fault.


Where is mho relay used?

MHO distance relays are used to protect andÊdetect faults and the location of faults on a transmission line. It detects faults by measuring and comparing phase angles through a phase comparator.

How many people in a relay running race?

There are multiple relay races: 4x100, 4x100, distance medley, and other less used relays. Every relay has 4 members.

What is distance really?

The most common form of protection on high voltage transmission systems is distance relay protection. Power lines have set impedance per kilometre and using this value and comparing voltage and current the distance to a fault can be determined. The ANSI standard device number for a distance relay is 21


How can a relay be used to run a 9V electric motor?

A relay cannot be used to power a motor. It can be used to control the motor by wiring the motor circuit in series with the relay contacts.
