The undesired operation of zone 3 may be one of the most conspicuous protective relay features due to the incorrect zone 3 relay operations which have been conducive to the severity of blackouts. Therefore, determining the accurate zone 3 setting of the distance relay is deemed to be necessary. This paper focuses on the development of a new technique for calculating zone-3 setting of distance r...

This paper presents the development of adaptive distance relay for protection of parallel transmission line with mutual coupling. The proposed adaptive relay, automatically adjusts its operation based on the acquisition of the data from distance relay of adjacent line and status of adjacent line from line circuit breaker IED (Intelligent Electronic Device). The zero sequence current of the adja...

this paper is concerned with development of a technique for performance prediction of current transformers (ct), accurately. in this technique, a new optimized model from view-point of both computation time and memory is introduced in order to simulate the current transformers on digital computers. the introduced software in this paper in combination with relay tester equipments can be used ins...

This paper describes the modeling of distance relay using Matlab/Simulink package. SimPowerSystem toolbox was used for detailed modeling of distance relay, transmission line and fault simulation. Inside the modeling, single line to ground (SLG) fault was choose to be the fault type and Mho type distance characteristic was choose to be as the protection scheme. A graphical user interface (GUI) w...

The first section of this paper discusses the self-clearing fault phenomena. The second section describes a universal protective relay architecture in which the sub-cycle overcurrent protection scheme has been implemented. The third section describes the protection scheme algorithm and implementation in the relay scheme. The fourth section covers testing of this scheme. An overall universal dis...

In order to analyze the operation of the protection system during induced fault testing in the Croatian power system, a simulation using the CAPE software has been performed. The CAPE software (Computer-Aided Protection Engineering) is expert software intended primarily for relay protection engineers, which calculates current and voltage values during faults in the power system, so that relay p...

Power transformers are key components for electrical energy transfer in a Power system. In order to protect the transformers from these faults different protective methods are adopted. Some of them are differential protection, over excitation Protection, etc. In this Paper Over Voltage protection is established for the protection of the transformer. Microcontroller is used for the Power Transfo...
