IEEE/IAS/I&CPSD Protection & Coordination WG Chair Jacobs Canada, Calgary, AB rasheek. com IEEE Southern Alberta Section PES/IAS Joint Chapter Technical Seminar - November 2016 Protective Relays - Technical Seminar Nov 2016 - Copyright: IEEE 2 Abstract: Protective relays and devices. A protective relay is an intelligent device that senses abnormal electrical conditions, such as overcurrent, under-voltage, or frequency deviations. It initiates the operation of circuit breakers to isolate the affected section. This prevents damage to equipment, reduces downtime, and safeguards. This document provides recommendations, background and philosophy on relay protection that is not available in M07. Designing an effective relay protection system requires a deep understanding of its fundamentals, principles, and the various factors. Selectivity is a mandatory requirement for all protection, but the importance of it depends on the application. While this is bad, It's not a.
