Introduction Typically, distance relays protect transmission lines from power system faults by using the method of step distance protection. This method uses the line impedance as the basis to form zones
On this basis, the operation equation of the adaptive impedance relay with quadrilateral characteristic is established. Finally, simulation results of the

In this paper a new method is presented for setting the quadrilateral characteristic of distance relay, considering sensitivity and selectivity criteria for protection zones.
In conventional transmission line protection, a three–zone stepped directional distance scheme is used to provide the primary as well as remote backup protection. The voltage
Distance relay elements can be designed to conform to a number of different operating criteria-plain impedance, reactance, mho and polygonal characteristics can be supplied. Today,
The polar characteristic of a Static Distance Protection Relay defines the range of impedance values of the protected primary circuit for which the relay gives circuit

When discussing protective distance relaying for transmission lines, it is of interest to understand the relay impedance characteristics and schemes used. Per the discussion above,
This paper analyzes factors affecting the performance of current polarized reactance elements and provides guidelines to ensure the security of
Since the method of adaptively adjusting the operation boundary of protection could effectively improve the operation performance of distance
The quadrilateral relay features three protection zones: Zone 1 (80-90% line impedance), Zone 2 (100% plus 50% adjacent), and Zone 3 (100% plus 120%
The DPP uses two quadrilateral relays at the sending end and the receiving end. The protection will not trip unless the fault is located at their
Using this tilt angle for a given right resistance blinder setting ensures security of Zone 1 quadrilateral distance elements, assuming the correct operation of directional and fault-type identification logics.

Since the impedance of a transmission line is proportional to its length, for distance measurement it is appropriate to use a relay capable of
An impedance relay is initiated when the impedance measured between the relay position and the fault is below an established value. This is one of the simplest
Quadrilateral relay provides flexible protection during high fault resistance of ground and phase faults. This is advantageous for protection of phase-to-earth.
DISTANCE RELAY FOUNDATIONS Since the impedance of a transmission circuit is relative to its length, it is suitable to use a relay capable of measuring the impedance of a circuit up to a present
Overcurrent relays cannot provide fast, coordinated protection because the transmission system is a mesh network. Line current differential relays can meet the requirements but require complex and
