Two relays R1 and R2 are connected in two sections of a feeder as shown in Figure Q2. Relay R1: CT ratio = 300/5, plug setting = 2.5A. TMS = 0.3 Relay R2: CT ratio = 500/5, plug setting = 3.75A. A fault at F results in a fault current of 3000A. Find the TMS of R2 to give time grading margin of 0.5s between the relays. The operating time characteristic of the relays is given in the Table Q2.

Two relays R1 and R2 are connected in two sections of a feeder as shown in Figure Q2.
Relay R1: CT ratio = 300/5, plug setting = 2.5A. TMS = 0.3
Relay R2: CT ratio = 500/5, plug setting = 3.75A.
A fault at F results in a fault current of 3000A. Find the TMS of R2 to give time grading
margin of 0.5s between the relays. The operating time characteristic of the relays is given in
the Table Q2.
