<p>An electrical device for protecting an alternating current network in which a static inverse timeovercurrent relay obtains network current information and relay circuit operating power from a current transformer having two secondary windings. Low transformer burden and accurate network information signals that are linearly responsive to a wide range of network current magnitudes are achieved through the use of a switching circuit that prevents the simultaneous operation of both secondary windings The relay circuit employs an RC network with a short, precision time constant for curve shaping and employs digital counting techniques to provide time delay multiplication, precision time scale selection and a variable delay time variable in accordance with the magnitude of system current.</p> |
