relays are used for phase faults on long line?

Correct answer: A. Impedance

  • A. Impedance
  • B. Reactance
  • C. Either of the above
  • D. None of the above

Explanation

Impedance relays are commonly used for phase-fault protection, particularly on short and medium transmission lines. Reactance relays are more commonly selected for earth-fault protection because their reach is less affected by fault resistance.
