Induction Type Directional Power Relay: The Directional Relay Means The Relay Operates For The

The directional power relay operates when power flows in a specific direction in a circuit. It produces torque due to the interaction of fluxes from both voltage and current, with the voltage coil flux lagging voltage by 90 degrees and the current coil flux being in phase with current. A directional overcurrent relay consists of a directional element and non-directional element in a common case, and only operates if power flows abnormally by energizing the lower non-directional element.

Directional Power Relay


The directional relay means the relay operates for the
specific direction of the actuating quantity in the circuit.
The directional power relay operates when the power
in the circuit floes in
the specific direction.

The torque is produced due to


interaction of the fluxes produced
from both voltage and current in the
circuit.
The voltage coil provided on the upper
magnet produces the flux 1. This
lags the voltage by 90.
The current I is sensed by the current
coil on lower magnet which produces
the flux 2.
This is inphase with current I. The
current I lags voltage V by an angle .

Directional over current


relay
It consists of two relay elements mounted on
a common case viz.
(i) Directional element and
(ii) Non-directional element
Operation:- Under normal operating
conditions, power flows in the normal
direction in the circuit operated by the relay.
Therefore, directional power relay does not
operate, thereby keeping the (lower element)
un-energized.
