STATOR EARTH-FAULT PROTECTION
Stator earth-fault protection comprises an instantaneous
relay and the Inverse Definite Minimum Time (IDMT)
relay. Both relay will be connected to current
transformer having a primary current rating equal to that
of the earthing resistor.

ROTOR EARTH-FAULT PROTECTION
For detecting earth-faults in the rotor circuit, a high-
resistance potentiometer is connected across the rotor
circuit the centre point of which is connected to earth
through a sensitive relay. The relay will respond to earth
faults occurring over most of the rotor circuit.
OVERCURRENT PROTECTION
An Inverse Definite Minimum Time (IDMT) relay is
generally used as back-up protection but the operation
of this relay is complicated because of the current
decrement in the generator during fault conditions. In
some cases a setting is chosen, such that the relay will
not operate for a system fault but will only respond when
fault current is fed into the generator, in this way it only
acts as a back-up to the main generator protection.
LOSS OF FIELD PROTECTION
Failure of the field system results in acceleration of the
rotor to above synchronous speed where it continuous
to generate power as an induction generator the flux
being provided by a large magnetising components
drawn from the system. This condition can tolerated for
a short time but clearly there will be increased heating of
the rotor because of the slip-frequency currents which
flow.

There is still a risk, however, that the steam valve not close
completely and even a small gap can cause over-speed and
so where urgent tripping is not required. It is usual to lower
the electrical output to about 1% before tripping the CB. A
sensitive under-power relay is used to detect when this value
is reached.
