Why is Power System Protection
Essential ?
Minimize damage to components/ elements
of a Power System
Quickly isolate the affected region of the power
system
Minimize the magnitude of short-circuit current
Prevent Injury to Personnel

Shunt Faults (Short Circuits)
When the path of current is cut-short due to
an insulation breakdown resulting in a short
circuit, a shunt fault is said to have occurred.
