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:

    Science is intimately integrated with the whole social structure and cultural tradition. They mutually support one other—only in certain types of society can science flourish, and conversely without a continuous and healthy development and application of science such a society cannot function properly.
    Talcott Parsons (1902–1979)

    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)

    I really do inhabit a system in which words are capable of shaking the entire structure of government, where words can prove mightier than ten military divisions.
    Václav Havel (b. 1936)
