IP rating requirements for relay protection device cabinets
(1) Following IEC 60529, we use “IP” to show how well control equipment stops people from touching live parts, keeps out solids, and blocks liquids. Their shells usually need at least IP54 protection. The IEC has developed the ingress protection (IP) ratings, which grade the resistance of an enclosure against the intrusion of dust or liquids Electric and electronic equipment deteriorate or malfunction when water or dust enters the device. Functionality of a device, but even more important safety of operators and bystanders must be guaranteed. We must set levels to stop objects, electric shock, and water based on how the equipment is used. These measures are important to keep people safe.

Brunei Relay Protection Tester Principle
A relay protection tester is a core device used to verify the performance of relay protection devices. Its working principle can be summarized as “signal excitation – behavior detection. The recommended test modules for relay tests are: DC test, AC and DC test, AC test, differential test, differential harmonic test, Power impedance, power direction. When the transformer wiring type is Y/Y (Y0), the test wiring is very simple: when testing phase A, the tester IA is connected to the phase A of the high voltage side, and the tester IB is connected to the phase a of the low voltage side. After the neutral line of the high and low voltage sides is.
