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:

    There is no such thing as a language, not if a language is anything like what many philosophers and linguists have supposed. There is therefore no such thing to be learned, mastered, or born with. We must give up the idea of a clearly defined shared structure which language-users acquire and then apply to cases.
    Donald Davidson (b. 1917)

    The philosopher believes that the value of his philosophy lies in its totality, in its structure: posterity discovers it in the stones with which he built and with which other structures are subsequently built that are frequently better—and so, in the fact that that structure can be demolished and yet still possess value as material.
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    For the structure that we raise,
    Time is with materials filled;
    Our to-days and yesterdays
    Are the blocks with which we build.
    Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1809–1882)
