Transmission Line Setting Calculations – Beyond the Cookbook
In general, relay engineers have two “knobs” to adjust when creating settings for a protective element in a relay: sensitivity and delay. Raising the sensitivity of an element improves dependability but

The scope of study involves calculating the settings for protective relays to achieve selectivity during faults ocurring in the electrical network for the 13.8 kV and 4.16 kV projects.
Relay Settings Calculations
To avoid relay mal-operation, set Slope 2 as high as possible. Normally, a high Slope 2 setting causes slow tripping for evolving faults (external-to-internal faults).
