INTRODUCTION
Since the mid twentieth century, electricity has been an essential part of our lives. Electricity powers, our appliances, office equipment and countless other devices and apparatus that we use to make life safer, easier and more interesting. Use of electric power is something we take for granted granted, however with the passage of time time, man realized that electricity could be used as mans useful resources making our life convenient and relaxing through its various usefulness.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT This book came into existence due to the vision of the author to do one good thing everyday for the glory of our God the Father and our Lord Jesus. Considering, the author does not have the treasure to share to others, he is blessed to have the talent and time to prepare, make and write such materials for others to learn and excel in their talent as well. As a gift from God, his bestowed talent is unselfishly being shared by him to others as his legacy before he will acquire the eternal life from our God he takes and reside in the promised Holy and blessed land through eternity. Furthermore, the encouragement of his spiritual adviser, a minister and pastor of Locale of Ibayo, Church of Christ, Bro. Vicente Benedicto. He is also sharing this valuable works to the Holy Spirit who guided him and provided him the required wisdom, talent and technical know how. With all my trials and obstacles in life that inspired me to overcome all the evils being thrown by the evil spirit, the author was able to complete the lst edition of this book. I might not be winning all the battles in my life but if God is with me who could be against me? I am sure I will win the war with Gods help and guidance. To God be the glory and may His name shine in my life. ULYSSES PAGUIO

Electric Power System

Electricity is generated at a power plant (1), voltage is stepped-up for transmission (2). energy travels along a transmission line to the area where the power is needed (3). voltage is decreased or stepped-down, at another substation (4), and a distribution power line (5) carries that electricity until it reaches a home or business (6).

So for a fault just after CB4 a directional over-current relay at CB3 will see the fault in reverse while at CB4 the fault is forward looking thus it will trip CB4 only to isolate the fault

Suppose G1 generation becomes stronger stronger, the directional overcurrent relay of CB2 might see the fault. Therefore, the scheme is now not secure.

The use of distance relay is preferred.

Two Busbar Protection Schemes: Low Impedance - using time overcurrent relays y
9 9

inexpensive but affected by CT saturation. low voltage application; 34.5kV and below

High Impedance - using overvoltage relays


(this scheme loads the CTs with a high impedance to force the differential current through the CTs instead of the relay operating coil.) 9 expensive but provides higher protection security security. 9 115kV and above voltage application or some 34.5kV bus voltages which require high protection sec rit
