Home / Relay protection differential coordination time
The IEC standard for relay coordination recommends time grading between relays based on fault current magnitude and operating characteristics. Selective short-circuit protection can be achieved in different ways, such as: Time-graded protection Time- and current-graded protection A straightforward way of obtaining selective protection is to use time grading. System Configuration Source Short Circuit MVA (at PCC) Short circuit capacity of the upstream source at the point of common coupling. Achieving coordination and ensuring that time overcurrent and distance relays operate in a predictable manner can be quite burdensome, especially in highly coupled power systems with tight loops in the topology structure. The faster the protection operates, the smaller the resulting hazards, damage and the thermal stress will be.

The Importance of Overcurrent ProtectionCo-Ordination ProcedurePrinciples of Time/Current GradingAmong the various possible methods used to achieve correct relay co-ordination are those using either time or overcurrent, or a combination of both. The common aim of all three methods is to give correct discrimination. That is to say, each one must isolate only the faulty section of the power system network, leaving the rest of the system undistur...See more on electrical-engineering-portal designcalculators
