This handbook covers the code of practice in protection circuitry including standard lead and device numbers, mode of connections at terminal strips, colour codes in multicore cables, dos and donts in execution. Also principles of various protective relays and schemes including special protection. The selected protection principle affects the operating speed of the protection, which has a significant im-pact on the harm caused by short circuits. Engineering use: Relays are used on feeders, transformers, buses, motors, generators, and transmission lines to protect equipment and improve system. Electrical systems usually use fuses and circuit breakers to protect electrical equipment such as cables, transformers, motors, and other components. The relay is a well known and widely used component. Applications range from classic panel built control systems to modern interfaces between control microprocessors and their power circuits or any application where reliable galvanic separation is required between different circuits.
