Relaying, Protection & Coordination at higher voltages
Relaying, Protection & Coordination at higher voltages
(OP)
Good morning folks! First post, hoping to learn lots and in the future contribute!
Something I'm working on requires knowledge of how P&C is done, the approach, the process and the decisions that need to be made. I was reading the IEEE Buff Book(which primarily focuses on industrial and commercial power systems, plant level) but in it it specifically states:
"Industrial power system voltages fall into three categories: above 15 000 V, from 15 000 to 601 V, and below 600 V. The industrial power system usually includes only the distribution busses 15 000 V and below. However, it may include the subtransmission substation bus at a higher voltage level. Bus protective relaying at this level may overload sections of equipment supplied by the electric utility."
The specific area of interest to me is busbar protection at higher voltages (in my case, 49 kV and 230 kV). I was assuming that you'd follow the same principles no lower voltage levels, but the quoted paragraph leads me to believe otherwise.
Can anyone recommend any good resources about P&C within the context of transmission and distribution voltage levels (high voltages)?
Thank you in advance.

I am not sure if it is free to download now, or something have to be paid, as my hardrcopy is a gift from AREVA (complementary to 700 000 USD order
NRAG is great book for every protection engineer, sometimes even experienced one can find something useful.

It may be like this in theory and practice, but in real life it is completely different.

If we learn from our mistakes I'm getting a great education!

i had my 2004 NPRAG hard copy, it's good stuff for protection relay engineers.
