What is the function of the auto reclosure relay?
The auto reclosure relay is often used in a distribution
system. If a breaker opens on a fault the fault may be
cleared by the fault current of the fault may clear it
self. An example of this is where something hits the power
lines during a storm. It may cause a short circuit open the
breaker. The could be a tree limb shorting across the lines
or pushing the lines together and then falling clear.
In circumstances like this the breaker would normally stay
open until someone access it and reclosed it.
What the reclose relay does is that after a set time delay
it will send a close signal to the breaker. This will then
restore the supply. If all is well the electricity company
can check for the problem later.
If there is still a fault the breaker will open and the
reclose relay will close one more time. If the fault still
exists the reclose relay will lock out until reset.

Dear Sirs, I am a technical persons.In one of our Electrical Sub- Station, We have installed three numbers of 1250KVA ,11KV/0.415KV Transformer to feed the Factory load. We have found some abnormality. In one of our Transformers the leakeage current from transformer body to earth through earth continuity wire is almost 86 Amp but in other transformer it is (5-10)Amp. where the load current on three phase and neutral are respectively 1360Amp,1400Amp,1370 Amp & 176Amp. So please any technical person help me about the reasons of this situation and how I can rectify the fault. Moreover,I have measured the earth resistance of the Earth continuity wire which is less than 1 Ohm. Thanks Tapas Barua
while we select CT, why the CT ratio is divided by 5?? ex:250/5,15VA,CLASS-1 CT.Why it is divided by 5??Help me please
