ANSI CODES For Protection Devices

This document lists ANSI device numbers and acronyms for protection devices used in power systems. It provides a table with two columns - the first column lists device numbers from 1 to 99 and the second column describes what each number represents, such as master element, time delay relay, overcurrent relay, etc. It also lists acronyms for various monitoring and protection devices used in substations.
