How does distance protection Relay work?

Well any type of relay protection is extremely complicated any many people will spend their whole career learning about protection and control. But a distance relay essentialy looks at the impedance of the circuit to be protected. When a fault occurs the impedance of the circuit will change. It then calculates this new impedance to determine where the fault has occurred. By knowing where the fault is it can trip appropriate CB's to isolate the faulted section.


What is an impedance relay?

Impedance relays are used whenever over-current relays do not provide adequate protection. They function even if the short circuit current is relatively low. The speed of operation is independent of current magnitude. Impedance relays monitor the impedance between the relay location and the fault. If the impedance falls within the relay setting, the relay will operate. The basic construction for impedance relays on which the principle of operation is easily explained is the balanced beam.


What is difference between high impedance busbar protection scheme and low impedance busbar protection scheme?

high impedance circit provides a varistor unit which has stabilising resistor which ll protect the relay from being operating for maloperations like through fault, CT faults whereas this varistor unit is provided internally in an numerical relay where the CT of class 5P can be used.

What is the conclusion of overheat protection of induction motor?

If the overload protection is set correctly to the motors full load amperage, any overloading of the motor will trip the protection and take the motor off line. Once the reason of the overload has been established and rectified, the overload protection is reset and the motor can be brought back on line.


What is FCMA Soft Starter?

At start the equivalent impedance of the FCMA is constant and maximum, done by the Main winding and the motor current through it. When the motor speed increase, the cemf of the motor increase the flux in the feedback winding, as this winding is in opposition with the Main winding the total flux, so the total equivalent impedance in the module, is decreasing with the motor speed. The design of our module, fonction of the motor data, is such as the starting current is keeping constant and the voltage at the motor terminal is continiously increasing during the motor start .


What is the current to an induction motor at 90 percent voltage?

It depends on the impedance of the induction motor. By rearranging ohms law, I=V/R where V would be 90% of Vmax


Which is better high input impedance or low input impedance and why?

That depends on the output impedance. In electronic we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance. An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance. An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.

How to distinguish between characteristic impedance and input impedance?

The characteristic impedance or surge impedance belongs to uniform transmission lines.In electronic gears we use voltage bridging, that is a relative low output impedance to a higher input impedance. Usualy the input impedance is more than ten times higher then the output impedance.An input impedance is called also a load impedance or an external impedance.An output impedance is called also a source impedance or an internal impedance.
