This package provides an overview of End-to-End testing and answers the most common questions a relay tester should ask before performing their first End-to-End test. A basic introduction of this test technique is followed by a step-by-step procedure for performing a successful end-to-end test. This package also includes an overview of the most common communication-assisted protection schemes to help the reader understand how these schemes operate.

The Relay Testing Handbook was created for relay technicians from all backgrounds and provides the knowledge necessary to test most modern protective relays installed over a wide variety of industries. Basic electrical fundamentals, detailed descriptions of protective elements, and generic test plans are combined with examples from real life applications to increase your confidence in any relay testing situation. A wide variety of relay manufacturers and models are used in the examples to help you realize that once you conquer the sometimes confusing and frustrating man-machine interfaces created by the different manufacturers, all digital relays use the same basic fundamentals; and most relays can be tested by applying these fundamentals. This package provides a step-by-step procedure for testing the most common distance protection applications used by a variety of manufacturers. Each chapter follows a logical progression to help understand why distance protection is used and how it is applied. Testing procedures are described in detail to ensure that the distance protection has been correctly applied. Each chapter uses the following outline to best describe the element and the test procedures.ApplicationSettingsPickup TestingTiming TestsTips and Tricks to Overcome Common ObstaclesReal world examples are used to describe each test with detailed instructions to determine what test parameters to use and how to determine if the results are acceptable.Thank you for your support with this project, and I hope you find this and future additions of The Relay Testing Handbook to be useful.

As modern protective relays become increasingly more powerful and complex, many relay testers continue to use test procedures and philosophies that are based on previous generations of relays and their limitations. Modern relays have very different characteristics that require a different testing philosophy to ensure that they will operate when required. The Relay Testing Handbook: Testing Voltage Protection (59/27/81) provides step-by-step procedures for testing the most common voltage and frequency protective applications. This volume is designed to help you understand and test: Overvoltage protection (59)Undervoltage protection (27)Over/under frequency protection (81) Each chapter explains the following topics for each element with realistic, practical examples and detailed instructions: Understanding the application Determining which settings are most important Recommended steps to correctly plan, perform, and evaluate pickup tests Recommended steps to correctly plan, perform, and evaluate timing tests Preventing interference from other settings inside the relay Tips and tricks to overcome common obstacles This book is included in the hardcover book The Relay Testing Handbook: Principles and Practice, or it can be ordered by itself as a soft-cover book, Adobe Acrobat PDF digital download, or both.
