CHAPTER-3
High-voltage phase over-current devices should not respond to maximum load current because these devices are applied to provide protection for short-circuits but not for maximum loads.
Relays Part 4: The Protective Relay Basic Theory
The types of protective relays that exist are overcurrent, electromechanical, directional, distance, pilot, and differential relays. The circuit diagram of the protective relay is made up of current
