Overcurrent Protection Exercise

Uploaded by

LADY VANESSA VARGAS PARADA

The document provides an example of modeling overcurrent protection for a low voltage distribution system. It includes network data for lines, transformers, motors and protection devices. Settings are defined for overcurrent relays protecting the transformer and motor. Additional curves are created for the motor starting characteristic, cable damage, and transformer inrush current. A short circuit simulation is run to analyze selectivity between protection devices.
