Question

4.1 By considering a radial power system shown below, overcurrent IDMT protection 
relays are to be installed as shown in the Figure. Assume that the fault current of 7.69kA is taking place and the relay time-setting multiplier ranges from 0.1 to 1 in steps of 
0.02 and the relay plug setting ranges from 25% to 250% in steps of 15%. Plug setting 
multipliers for Relay 1 and Relay 2 are 7 and 15, respectively. For a given fault current, 
Relay 2 must trip within 0.3 seconds and a grading margin of 0.6 seconds should be
allowed between the relays.

Correct to two decimal places

44.Determine the plug setting percentage for relay 2 (%).
45.Determine the time-setting multiplier for relay 2. 
46.Determine the time-setting multiplier for relay 1.
