Tests of distance relay teleprotection schemes should check both relays simultaneously, including their communication link. This video shows a real test of a 110 kV overhead line. The protection was ...

A Relay Protection Tester is designed to simulate electrical quantities such as current, voltage, frequency, and phase, ...

Insulation resistance testers, often called megohmmeters, are fundamental tools for preventive maintenance, used to assess the integrity of insulation in motors, cables, transformers, and other ...

The objective of protective relays and protective schemes is to protect electrical equipment such as transformers, lines, cables, bus bars, etc. during abnormal system conditions. Hence, protective ...

Relays are electromechanical devices that use a magnetic solenoid to actual a switch. When current is passed through the solenoid coil, it produces a magnetic field. The magnetic field is strengthened ...

Relays are common electromechanical devices in electrical circuits that come in two types: either latched or non-latched. Latched relays retain their last switch position even after complete power ...

Last column, I wrote about various applications where fire alarm relays could be used to integrate a commercial fire alarm system with other electrical systems at a customer’s site to provide them ...
