[A Standby eartn faut relay is nothing but an earth aut protection used to protect the generator, transformer, and motor ffom the extemal earth fault (ert faut ‘outside he zane, fr example gia side earth ful). [As you know in electrical power system, the fault occurs due to varous factors ‘such as natural alcturbance ightring on the transmission tne. fling wees on the transmission ines, animal fall on the insulator, insulation fate, cable tale, ‘lectrical equipment fur, te. In such faut is classified ito two categories on is a symmetrical fault (LLG) ‘and anciner one isan unsymmetical faut (LG, LA, LA-G, LL, and LLG) Inti, one of he relays is used to protect our system agains L-G, LLG, LLG. faults.

Simply we can say.

Look at he image below, here he noted NCT is used only or stand by earth faut protect, Note: “To get beter operating perfamnance trom the Standby earth faut ray, we shoul provide a current reference tothe relay rom indidual CT or separate core output {tf we use mult.core CT) The CT reference should not be shared with any other ‘equpment. For ateratrs, we should install the curant transformer separately. ut power lronstermer of sinbuton transformer comes wth NCT (Neutral cuirent transfoemer, We can tae the curent reference trom the NCT.
