  • Relay protection annual inspection cycle

    Relay protection annual inspection cycle

    A general rule of thumb would be to visually inspect every one to two years, secondary injection testing every one to three years, and primary injection every three to five years or on major changes. Primary injection testing takes it one step further by passing actual fault currents through the entire protection chain—current transformers, the relay. Electromechanical and microprocessor relays should receive a monthly visual inspection. Look over the relays and their cases for any physical damage, and check for foreign objects or debris. For microprocessor units, make sure the relay is displaying the correct date and time. Annual visual and. Acceptance tests are generally performed in the laboratory. ABB's knowledge and experience are not limited to relays only, full support for all protection and control relays throughout their entire life cycle.

  • Sensitivity Analysis of Optical Receiver Module

    Sensitivity Analysis of Optical Receiver Module

    Sensitivity is the minimum average optical power in dBm to achieve a desired bit-error-rate (BER). Always compare back-to-back (transmitter directly to receiver) with maximum fiber length. For example, SONET specifies that the BER must be 10 -10 or better. Receiver sensitivity is defined by how weak an input signal can be to prevent the Bit Error Rate (BER) from exceeding a specific value which is set by the MSA standards. Exceeding the BER value indicates signal degradation, rendering it unsuitable for data communication. A general mathematical model of the receiver sensitivity that fits to analytical as well as measured data is. cle provides an analysis of receiver optical sensitivity.
