ABSTRACT:
A phase relay utilizes improved polarizing and operating signals in order to provide discrimination between internal faults within a protected zone of an AC power transmission line and external faults than can appear as internal faults due to transients induced by capacitive voltage transformers or series capacitors. A zero sequence restraint signal is used to block operation of the phase relay on close-in single line to ground faults. A filter is used in a by-pass circuit to attenuate high frequency transients which might delay, and possibly prevent a trip output on an internal fault. A high set by-pass circuit, including zero suppression to preclude an output on an external fault, is employed to provide faster operating times on severe internal faults. Forward offset and/or zero suppression of the polarizing signal is used to reduce the characteristic timer setting and therefore increase the speed of the phase relay operation.
