System Protection CH 4 Flashcards
have the interrupters enclosed within a grounded enclosure.
Dead tank breakers
has the interrupter installed
within an insulated enclosure
live tank breaker
reacts to the magnetic and
electric fields to provide accurate and usable input to relays and metering.
optical sensors
typically utilized where there is a need to
use the transmission line to carry a signal to a location to trip a breaker
Coupling capacitor potential devices
an inductance that is installed in the line circuit between the coupling capacitor and the substation bus to block the carrier signal from being transmitted into the bus
wave trap
have a separate current and/or voltage input that enables the relay to sense which direction the fault current is flowing
overcurrent relays
scheme uses relays that measure the
impedance or reactance of the line.
Distance overcurrent relaying
a relaying scheme used for transmission protection, where the relays at different line terminals communicate with each other using some type of telecommunication system.
Pilot wire relaying
uses the transmission conductors as the
communications medium to send signals to trip or block the tripping of breakers in the event of a fault.
