What does relay protection communication mean
By allowing relays to communicate with each other, fault information can be shared in real-time, allowing neighboring relays to quickly identify the faulted section of the network. This, in turn, enables faster fault clearance and minimizes the disruption to the power system. The protected zone is the part of the network in which faults cause the protection function to operate. ) and network communication systems (SCADA, RTUs, digital and analog inputs and outputs, IEC 61850, etc. Protective relays and devices have been developed over 100 years ago to provide "lastline"of defense for the electrical systems. It functions as a watchdog by constantly surveying multiple system components including voltage, current, frequency, and phase angle.
