Abstract :
Recent operating experience has prompted a reappraisal of generating unit protection to insure that damage from all potential hazards will be minimized. Eight aspects of unit protection for which new or modified protection is desirable are discussed. Conventional protective relay systems should be supplemented with monitoring systems to detect incipient fault conditions.
