FAULT ANALYSIS AND RELAY COORDINATION

 

October 18, 2003

 

 

Course Objectives

 

Estimates of fault currents are required for deciding rating of the power apparatus, fuses, circuit breakers etc. These fault currents are estimated by fault analysis program. Important issues in fault analysis are sequence modeling of rotating machines (generators and motors), use of empirical multiplying factors to account for violation of restraints due to dc offset current, flux decay etc. In this course fundamentals of fault analysis will be reviewed. Fault analysis as per ANSI/IEEEStd141-1986 will be discussed. The theory will be supported with examples worked using fault analysis program developed at IIT Bombay.

 

Relay coordination is an important activity for both utilities and industrial power systems. The inputs for relay coordination like fault currents and apparent impedances are derived from the fault analysis program.  Overcurrent and Distance relay coordination for both radial and meshed systems will be covered. Demonstrations will include a digitizer to obtain polynomial fit for manufacturer supplied data sheets for inverse overcurrent relay characteristics, over current and distance relay coordination programs etc. Problems faced in setting backup zones during distance relay coordination due load encroachment and power swings will be discussed with illustrations.

 

Who Should Attend?

 

 

The course is meant for people interested in power system protection.  In particular engineers from electrical utilities, consultants, research scholars and faculty of engineering colleges are invited to attend it.
