Relay protection time characteristic curve
The time current characteristic curve in overcurrent relay is one of the most important tools used to understand how a protection relay behaves when fault current flows through a power system. There are three main types of overcurrent relay: (1) Instantaneous, (2) Time-Dependent (Definite time or inverse), and (3) Mixed (Definite time and Inverse). Typically added to a breaker close circuit to prevent accidental reclosure after a trip. Being such, fuses operate on a continuous-ampere rating.
