Engineering Maintenance and Testing System Analysis

 

System Analysis - Protective Device Coordination Study

Back to System Analysis Services

In a properly coordinated system, only the protective device nearest the fault operates to isolate the faulted circuit without disrupting power to other portions of the system.

  • This study provides recommended fuse sizes and settings for circuit breakers and relays to achieve optimum system protection and selective isolation of faults to minimize system downtime.
  • The study engineer must often arbitrate between competing solutions to achieve maximum protection while ensuring minimum service interruption.
