Abstract :
The authors describe adaptive relaying, a new philosophy in protecting electric power systems. Adaptive relaying utilizes the continuously changing status of the power system as the basis for online adjustment of the power system relay settings. Consequently, it provides the required flexibility for obtaining very high levels of power system reliability. Digital relays with adequate software and communication capability make these devices ideal for implementing adaptive relaying concepts
