Home / Classification Standards for Safety Levels of Relay Protection
IEC standards define the specifications, performance criteria, communication protocols, and testing methods for protection relays. What is the IEC Standard for Protection Relays? The IEC standard for protection relays is part of a globally recognized framework developed by the International Electrotechnical Commission. They are intended to quickly identify a fault and isolate it so the balance of the system continue to run under normal conditions. The most significant attribute of a Performance Level is the structure of the circuit or Category. Table 5 in ISO 13859-1 defines the type of components and principles that are used to design a safety circuit. Either subsystems or their protective equipment, or both, as well as their components. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is currently working on a new series of standards that covers the functional requirements of measuring relays and related equipment used to protect electrical transmission and distribution systems. Long term cost reduction (TCO) for trainings and maintenance by reduce variety of relays A fast and selective arc fault mitigation for air-insulated LV & MV switchgear and Relion protection and control relays and sensor technology protect staff and plant facilities for many years. Each country has its own national safety standards according to voltages, weather conditions and safety.
Power System Relays Standards concentrate on the application, design, construction and operation of protective, regulating, monitoring, reclosing, synch-check, synchronizing and auxiliary relays.
