Dear guest

Distance relays are used for distance protection for more that 200 m.It works on the principle of Impedance drop Z=V/I.As we know cable impedance drop in case of any fault.This diffference in Impedance will pick up relay.Basically Impedance relay and Mho relay are used for Distance protection.

Thank you.any query please ask.
