What is the difference between eath fault protection &
Restricted Earth fault Protection?

Answer / dinesh kumar
In earth fault protection the feeder or drive is protected
against an earth fault.In restricted earth fault protection
the complete winding of transformer or generator is not
protected against earth fault depending upon the value of
resistance connected in neutral grounding.If the earth
fault occure in the part of unprotected portion of winding
the eart fault relay will not trip

Answer / srinivas
earth fault protection allows the total fault current passes through the conductors, by this there may be chance of insulation breakdown, leads to machine failure.
restricted earth fault protection consists the resistance in the neutral wore that limits the fault current to certain level (it depends on the value of the resistance being added), there by more safety to the machine and auxiliaries.

Just a silly question but just to make my curious mind bac to normal - Why was not 67 and 67N relays built into a single relay as i have noticed that the R,Y,B CT wiring end up into the 67 relay while the common of the R,Y,B CT wiring end up into the 67N relay. Then it was better if a single relay was manufactured just like the distance relay (21). Another question i would like to ask is - how do we know where the 67 and 67 N relay has to be placed.why is it not placed at the transformer bay? In the substaion that i am working -i have noticed that it is placed between a breaker and a common double bus bar and this line bay is connected to another substation at a remote place which is furthur connected to a load.
