Static Relay - Structure

Structure

Static relay consists of following units for operation:

  1. Auxiliary Voltage Supply:24 V DC supply is required for energizing the circuitry of the static relay. This is obtained by converting 230 V AC to 24 V DC and in some cases station battery voltage of 110 V to 24 V DC.
  2. Comprator:It compares the actual quantity with the pre-set quantity. For example in an over-current relay it will compare the actual current supplied by CT with the pre-determined set current over which tripping is required.
  3. Time delay Elements:The required operation time is achieved here by adjusting the values of R and C.
  4. Logic Circuit:By using the gate circuits conditions of operation of relays are set and relay can only be operated when these conditions are satisfied.
  5. Output Device:The actual tripping of relay can be achieved by firing the SCR or operating the attracted armature type relay by feeding the signal coming from logic circuit output.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:

    When a house is tottering to its fall,
    The strain lies heaviest on the weakest part,
    One tiny crack throughout the structure spreads,
    And its own weight soon brings it toppling down.
    Ovid (Publius Ovidius Naso)

    Vashtar: So it’s finished. A structure to house one man and the greatest treasure of all time.
    Senta: And a structure that will last for all time.
    Vashtar: Only history will tell that.
    Senta: Sire, will he not be remembered?
    Vashtar: Yes, he’ll be remembered. The pyramid’ll keep his memory alive. In that he built better than he knew.
    William Faulkner (1897–1962)

    Slumism is the pent-up anger of people living on the outside of affluence. Slumism is decay of structure and deterioration of the human spirit. Slumism is a virus which spreads through the body politic. As other “isms,” it breeds disorder and demagoguery and hate.
    Hubert H. Humphrey (1911–1978)
