Protection of Transmission Line
Protection of Transmission Line is also the most important factor that affects the distribution of electrical power. There are various ways to protect the transmission line
- Over Current Protection : This is the most used technique to protect the transmission line. In this method it automatically detects the high currents exceeding the set amount, by which we know there is a fault. After this the relays get tripped and further damage is not happened.
- Distance Protection : In this type of protection both resistance and reactance is used that means impedance is used to measure the fault. It is mostly used fir long transmission lines where it is hard to tell where the fault is.
- Ground Fault Protection : In this method we detect faults if the current leaks from the ground.
- Protective Relays : By installing Protective Relays, our system is protected from major faults. They are helpful to us as they are used for monitoring all the crucial processes.
- Regular Maintenance : We indeed know that all the protection provided from machines are good, but it will be at its best when there will be regular maintenance and inspection by workers. This will help the system to be stable.
