Protection and Control Device Numbers and Functions
The protection and control devices in electrical equipment can be referred to by numbers, with appropriate suffix letters when necessary, according to the functions they perform.

ins on the relay bottom. The screw terminal connections you see in the photograph where wires connect to the relays are actually part of the socket assembly, into whi h each relay is plugged. This type of
Relays may be fitted with a "target" or "flag" unit, which is released when the relay operates, to display a distinctive colored signal when the relay has tripped.
Ground fault protection for these systems is usually provided by residual protection, either calculated by relay or by external CT residual connection to IN input
Unit protection is designed to operate for abnormal conditions inside the protected zone while remaining stable for abnormal conditions outside the protected zone.
Relay protection operates at the scheme level. A scheme defines how information is measured, compared, and acted upon across a protected zone. Whether a system uses unit protection, non-unit
The inclusion of a type MCTH relay, designed to provide a blocking signal in the presence of transformer inrush currents, enables a pilot wire differential protection scheme to be applied to a transformer feeder.
The document provides a comprehensive overview of protective relaying in power systems, detailing the functions, requirements, and types of protection schemes including unit and non-unit protections.
Generally, MV and HV circuit breakers do not contain relays, trip units, or any element that will automatically cause the breaker to operate. They require relays and sensors to complete the system.
Unit type protection schemes protect specific system elements like transformers or transmission lines by measuring currents entering the protected area and tripping
The relay block comprises the two protection units, phase protection unit and earth protection unit. When the value of the current in any of the phases is greater than the pick up value, the phase protection
