Guide Protective relays are designed by using standard device numbers to describe its functionality. Instead of verbal descriptions, we use numbers to describe the functions of a relay.
Guide Protective relays are commonly referred to by standard device numbers. For example, a time overcurrent relay is designated a 51 device, while an instantaneous overcurrent is a 50 device.
Guide Whether specifying new equipment or analyzing existing installations, proficiency with ANSI/IEEE device numbers is an essential skill in the field of power system protection and control.
Guide This table details ANSI IEEE Standard Device Numbers as used for protective relaying in North America. Suffixes for numbers are also suggested.
Guide In the design of electrical power systems, the ANSI Standard Device Numbers (ANSI /IEEE Standard C37.2) denote what features a protective device supports (such as a relay or circuit breaker).
