The IEC standard for relay coordination provides clear guidelines and methodologies to ensure that protective relays work in harmony to isolate only the faulty section of the system while keeping the rest of the network operational. the use of protection systems to reduce arc flash energy in distribution systems). At this setting,this is as far as we can reach down the line before the fault becomes undetectable.
