its a type of overcurrent - earth fault relay --
IDMT -- inverse definite min. time , having diff types--
normal inverse / long inverse / short inverse type
the relay are of 3 types
1) electro mechanical (whose opeartion way is described by
others)
2) static and latest are 3) numericals --no moving part.
the simple way to explain its principle is that
THE RELAY OPERATIONAL TIME IS INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL TO
THE FAULT CURRENT. IN NORMAL INV IDMT FOR A 2.0 TIMES
CURRENT WITH TMS (TIME MULTIPLIER SETTING) of 1.0 THE RELAY
OPERATInG TIME IS 10 SEC,.. WHEREAS FOR THIS SAME SETTINGS
IF CURRENT IS DOUBLED THE TIME REQUIRED IS ALMOST 5 SEC..
but after 20 amp(in 1 A relay) the time reqd is same.
