Using numerical machine and motor protection
Version: C 3_Page 3
Rotating Machines:
 Generators (asynchronous and synchronous)
 Motors (asynchronous and synchronous)
Stand still Machines:
 Transformers (variable design and vector groups)
The machine protection includes all numerical devices which are able to de
detect faults and abnormal operating conditions on machines and react
according the situation. It protects the objects against inadmissible stress
and it’s indirect also a human protection.
The protection devices must fulfil the following 3S criteria:
 Selectivity (switch off of the faulty system)
 Speed (fast as necessary)
 Security (high security and reliability)
What are Machines and what is Machine Protection?

At the unit protection more than one trips and breakers are to handle.
It depends on the fault type, the plant design and plant operation,
generator operation and general operation philosophy.
