3. Protection Settings: Introduction A power system is composed of a number of sections (equipment) such as generator, transformer, bus bar and transmission line.
These sections are protected by protective relaying systems comprising of instrument transformers (ITs), protective relays, circuit breakers (CBs) and communication equipment.
In case of a fault occurring on a section, its associated protective relays should detect the fault and issue trip signals to open their associated CBs to isolate the faulted section from the rest of the power system, in order to avoid further damage to the power system. 3
