where electricity is needed. If something goes wrong
with these lines, it can cause serious problems.
Transmission lines can experience different types of
faults, such as faults occurring in multiple phases at the
same time, faults in a single phase, or faults involving
phases and the ground. There are also other types of
faults, like High Impedance Faults (HIF) and evolving
faults, that can happen in the system.
To protect these lines during such fault conditions,
special devices called relays are installed in the system.
These relays constantly monitor the voltage and current
levels in the system. When they detect any abnormal
changes, they send a signal to the circuit breaker, which
then disconnects the faulty section of the transmission
line.
