The tendency of a Reach of Distance Relay to operate at impedance larger than its setting value is known as overreach. Overreach is the presence of d.c. offset in the fault current wave, as the offset current has a higher peak value than that of a symmetrical wave for which the relay is set.
1.6 inches = 1.6 inches x 1,000 mils per inch = 1,600 mils 0.25 inch = 0.25 inch x 1,000 mils per inch = 250 mils Area = 1,600 x 250 = 400,000 square mils
Covered Conductor is extensively used in voltage up gradation projects ranging between 6.6KV to 33 KV. Covered Conductors are longitudinally water blocked and covered with special grades of materials that provide insulation and ultraviolet protection.
