(First Revision) 0. FOREWORD 0.1 This Indian Standard ( Part l/Set 1 ) ( First Revision > was adopted by the Indian Standards Institution on 26 November 1986, after the draft finalized by the Relays Sectional Committee had been approved by the Electrotecbnical Division Council. 0.2 The relays are intended to protect the electrical plant and equipment against damage in case of abnormal conditions occurring in the system. Protective relays act as sensing elements and may be suitably set to operate with the required discrimination. 0.3 This standard was first published in 1965. This revision has been brought out to take into account the experience gained since then and to align with the international practices to the extent found appropriate. This part/section is one of the new revised series, general introduction to which is given in IS : 3231 ( Part 0 )-1986*. The standards published in the revised series so far are: IS : 3231 Specification% for electrical relays for power system protection: General introduction and list of parts (jirsr ( Part 0 )-1986 revision ) Section 1 Contact (Part l/Set 1 )-I986 General requirements, performance (first revision ) ( Part l/Set 2 )-1986 General requirements, Section 2 Insulation tests (first revision ) *Specification for electrical relays for power introduction and list of parts (fivst revision). system protection

SCOPE 1.1 This standard ( Part l/Set 1 ) specifies conditions for testing contact performance of electrical protection relays, criteria of contact failure for such relays and the assessment of performance data. 2. TERMINOLOGY 2.1 For the purpose of this standard, the definitions given in IS : 1885 ( part 9 )-19861 and IS : 12083 ( Part 1 )-1986 shall apply. *Specification for fSpecification for introduction and list $Electrotechnical electrical relays: Part 1 Contact performance. electrical relays for power system protection: Part 0 General of parts ( firs? revision ). vocabulary : Part 9 Electrical relays (first revision ).
