Relay protection device self-transmission and self-reception
SEL relays detect faults and other abnormal conditions in electric power systems and initiate protective actions to maintain system stability and safety. They are used in a wide range of applications, from transmission and distribution to industrial power systems. Selectivity is a mandatory requirement for all protection, but the importance of it depends on the application. For example, unselective protection operation during a medium voltage network fault will cause an outage for an unnecessarily large number of consumers. Types of Protective Relays: Protective relays are categorized by their mechanism (electromagnetic, static, mechanical) and function.
