Protective relay Operation: For instanta-neous reclosure, contacts must open within 10 cycles or less after breaker is tripped to insure the relay circuit is de-energized be-fore reclosing breaker. Otherwise, undesired breaker tripout occurs. The RC relay can be used for practically any reclosing scheme. Applications of the concepts to accepted transmission line-protection schemes are also presented. Many important issues, such as coordination of settings, operating times, characteristics of. Purpose: To document and implement programs for the maintenance of all Protection Systems, Automatic Reclosing, and Sudden Pressure Relaying affecting the reliability of the Bulk Electric System (BES) so that they are kept in working order. Disabling of reclosers under certain conditions is required in the "269". Auto Reclosing Scheme – It is well realized that the transient faults which are most frequent in occurrence do no permanent damage to the system as they are transitory in nature.
