Course Objectives:
Course Description:
General philosophy of protection – characteristic function of protective relays – basic relay elements and relay terminology – basic
construction of static relays – non-critical switching circuits.
Protection of generators stator phase fault protection – loss of excitation protection, generator off- line protection – Transformer
protection – factors affecting differential protection – magnetizing inrush current – Application and connection of transformer
differential relays – transformers over current protection. - Bus protection -line protection – classification of lines and feeders –
Techniques applicable for line protection – distance protection for phase faults – Fault resistance and relaying – long line protection.
SWITCH GEAR:
Switchgear terminology – arc characteristics – direct and alternating current interruption – arc - quenching phenomena
CIRCUIT BREAKERS - Types of faults in power systems-short circuit current and short circuit MVA calculations for different types of
faults rating of circuit breakers – symmetrical and asymmetrical ratings. Classification of circuit breakers-design, construction and
operating principles of bulk oil, minimum oil, air blast, SF 6 and vacuum circuit breakers – Comparison of different types of circuit
breakers, Testing of circuit breakers.
