Abstract
Multi-function multi-phase static overcurrent relays, using digital technology available today, provide basic time, (51) (51G) (51N) and instantaneous (50) (50G) (50N) three phase and ground overcurrent protection, and may offer some or all of the following additional functions: undervoltage (27); overvoltage (59); reverse phase sequence (47); negative phase sequence voltage (47N); directional overcurrent (67) (67N); frequency (81O/U); reverse interlocking trip coil monitoring; and battery monitoring. This article describes two applications that use some of the additional functions in such a relay: reverse interlocking, also using the directional overcurrent (67) function; and ground fault detection for systems utilizing high resistance grounding. The first application was installed on a 4160 volt power system which was supplied by two 5000 kVA transformers.
