ANSI (IEEE) Protective Device Numbering
Protective relays are commonly referred to by standard device numbers. For example, a time overcurrent relay is designated a 51 device, while an instantaneous overcurrent is a 50 device.

Read MoreThe purpose of this guide is to provide a reference for the selection of relay schemes and to assist less experienced protective relaying engineers in applying protection schemes to transmission lines.
Read MoreProtective relays and devices have been developed over 100 years ago to provide "lastline"of defense for the electrical systems. They are intended to quickly identify a fault and isolate it so the balance of
Read MoreWhen the protection is implemented using a current relay, the current value at which the relay should operate must be determined first. By means of the stabilizing voltage and the current setting, the
Read MoreProtective relays are designed by using standard device numbers to describe its functionality. Instead of verbal descriptions, we use numbers to describe the functions of a relay.
