What is a capacitor protection relay?

Trench’s capacitor protection relay is specifically designed to provide comprehensive protection of medium and high voltage capacitor banks and filter installations, thereby enhancing the safety and the efficiency of the system.

Why do protective relay engineers need a series capacitor Protection Guide?

Applications of series capacitors are sufficiently diverse that protective relay engineers need some guidance on the reasons and considerations for different protection and control schemes. This guide is intended for engineers involved in the areas of protection specifications, evaluation, and operation of series capacitor banks.

Do you need a capacitor for a relay?

Most people don't use one. the Diode is going to catch most of the energy when the relay switches off, so the capacitor is only needed for the short period before the diode starts conducting, if that's a problem, use a slower switch.

Do protective relays work on transmission-line series capacitor banks?

Abstract: The application of protective relays on transmission-line series capacitor banks is covered. Ample discussion of the protection and control issues related to series capacitor bank installations is provided to the reader. Specific examples related to protective functions and testing procedures are provided.

Why do relay coils have a flyback diode?

Especially when a relay coil is switched off a very sharp pulse is generated (due to the magnetic flux in the relay core wanting to induce a current in the coil). The flyback diode takes care of most of this but it is possible that it is not fast enough to catch the sharpest edges of the pulse. Then the capacitor helps to smooth these edges out.

How does a capacitor affect a diode?

The capacitor is used as an absorber. The diode cannot respond fast enough and the back emf generated by the coil when current to it is switched off can affect other circuits. The capacitor in effect increases the time for the back emf to grow and gives the diode more time to effectively clamp the voltage.
