  • Relay protection time limit difference

    Relay protection time limit difference

    The IEC standard for relay coordination recommends time grading between relays based on fault current magnitude and operating characteristics. For overcurrent protection, a minimum time margin of 0. 5 seconds is often maintained between primary and backup relays. Good and reliable selectivity of the protection is essential in order to limit the supply interruption to the smallest area possible and to give a clear indication of the faulted part of the network. This makes it possi-ble to direct the corrective action to the faulty part of the network and the. The limit is defined by the electrical load (burden) of the relays in relation to the maximum terminal voltage.
