How to configure relay protection time limit
The time delay of zone 2 and zone 3 elements should be set to coordinate with time-step protection at both the remote and local buses. This allows time for the remote zone 1 element to pick up, plus breaker operating time. Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) indicates how many times the determined relay secondary current (typically the CT secondary) exceeds the relay pickup (plug) current. It is the key quantity utilized in IDMT. Use this Protection Relay Setting Calculator to calculate pickup current, time multiplier settings (TMS), operating time, coordination time interval (CTI), and plug setting multiplier (PSM) using fault current, CT ratio, and IEC 60255 curve parameters. These calculations are critical in industrial. To configure protective devices such as making a relay setting, having all the consideration of the fault severity and decision-making time, it is important to know parameters, rules, and protection zone so that the reliability of the power system having continuous supply, is not compromised. set to clear.
