Coordination between relay protection and backup protection

Home / Coordination between relay protection and backup protection

Relay coordination refers to setting protective devices so that the relay closest to the fault operates first, while upstream relays act as backups. Relay coordination is one of the most critical aspects of electrical power system protection. The primary protection scheme ensures fast and selective clearing of any circuit fault within the boundaries of the circuit element, that the.
