Why reverse power relay is used?

Answer Posted / abdul nazir

Normally reverse power relay is used for generator side.
when ever we will synchronise the generator with grid or
other generator, immediately we will increase the generator
load other wise the generator will take load from the other
side(grid or other generator). So the generator will run as
a motor.
to avoid these conditions,the reverse power relay will act
& trip the generator circuit breaker.
