Current direction at relay protection fault point
Consider a fault occurs at a point P. Hence the fault current flows from the generator G through the breaker A and E. Also the fault current comes from the breaker series A . This White Paper describes the sense, the potentials and the use of directional protection and directional zone selectivity functions, hereafter called “D” and “SdZ D” respectively. This selective operation helps avoid unnecessary tripping of circuit breakers and ensures that only the faulty section is isolated. Directional relays are not just overcurrent devices with extra logic. They compare current from CTs with voltage from PTs to determine the fault direction. I care. This practice-oriented paper shows, in addition to the illustrative explanation of the basis of ground fault parameters in insulated and arc-suppression-coil-ground systems, the connection variants for determination of the ground fault direction in detail.

What does u mean in relay protection
Instantaneous overcurrent protection is where a protective relay initiates a breaker trip based on current exceeding a pre-programmed “pickup” value for any length of time. Engineering use: Relays are used on feeders, transformers, buses, motors, generators, and transmission lines to protect equipment and improve system. 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. These numbers are based on a system that is adopted by a standard for automatic switchgear by Institute of Electrical. Overcurrent protection prevents damage from the overheating of critical components and conductors, further preventing fires and injury.
