Current Differential Relaying External fault or load Protected Device SYS SYS SYS SYS FAULT SYS - SYS 0 No operation of the relays is expected Copyright L.R. Orama 006
Current Differential Relaying nternal fault or load Protected Device SYS SYS FAULT SYS FAULT + SYS SYS - SYS FAULT Differential current, relays operate Copyright L.R. Orama 006 3
CT/Relay Connection Overcurrent relay measures differential current0 Note: Load Current must be less than 000A for CT s to be the correct ones. No operation Copyright L.R. Orama 006 4
CT/Relay Connection Relay sends message to both CB (5) trip coils Relay Operates Copyright L.R. Orama 006 5
High Resistance nternal Fault High resistance internal fault may or may not be detected Overcurrent relay has a minimum pickup value For example, if PU.0A, the relay will not operate. 3-Feb-006 Copyright L.R. Orama 006 6
