Abstract :
This paper presents the results of a study into the application and performance of the offset mho distance relay for the loss of excitation protection of synchronous generators. Included is information on the loss of excitation characteristics of modern generators, on relay performance during transient swings and low frequency disturbances and on generator protection.
