Question

The most commonly used relay, for the protection of an alternator against loss of excitation, is

Options :

  1. differential relay

  2. offset Mho relay.

  3. Buchholz relay

  4. over current relay.

Show Answer

Answer :

offset Mho relay.

Solution :

  • Buchholz’s relay is used for the protection of transformer
  • Differential relay is used for alternator winding protection
  • Over-current relay is used for location where there is a chance of high current during fault
  • Offset mho relay is used for the protection of an alternator against loss of excitation.
