From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
For the protection of low voltage networks or low voltage electrical wiring, see Circuit breaker § low-voltage, Residual-current device, and Fuse (electrical).
The purpose of power system protection is to initiate the prompt removal from service of any element of an electric power system when it suffers an electrical fault, or when it starts to operate in any a manner that might cause abnormal safety hazards, damage to equipment or property, or otherwise interfere with the effective operation of the rest of the system.[1]
