The first protective relays were electromagnetic devices, relying on coils operating on moving parts to provide detection of abnormal operating conditions such as over-current,, reverse flow, over-frequency, and under-frequency.

Protection is the branch of electric power engineering concerned with the principles of design and operation of equipment (called 'relays' or 'protective relays') that detects abnormal power system conditions, and initiates corrective action as quickly as possible in order to return. Relay protection and automation (RPA) are critical systems in electrical networks. RPA automatically detect faults and emergency situations, then take action to disconnect the damaged section of the network to protect equipment and ensure stable and reliable power supply. In electrical engineering, a protective relay is a relay device designed to trip a circuit breaker when a fault is detected.

IOCP settings depend on maximum short-circuit current and protection coverage, following IEC 60909 (short-circuit current calculation) and IEC 60255-151 (overcurrent protection settings). maxIi setting allows normal transient overcurrent inrush current for transformers: A 1st peak 10 to 25 x In Motor direct on line starting current: NOTE: MasterPacT MTZ1 L1 type circuit breakers are equipped with an additional fast instantaneous trip set at 10 x In. Overcurrent protection relay settings are critical for any electrical distribution system. The ANSI device number is 50 for an instantaneous overcurrent (IOC) or a Definite Time overcurrent (DTOC) and 51 for the Inverse Definite Minimum Time.

An overcurrent relay is a type of protective relay which operates when the load current exceeds a pickup value. It is of two types: instantaneous over current (IOC) relay and definite time overcurrent (DTOC) relay.
