The new protection relay functional standards are designated as the IEC 60255-1xx series. The standardisation of various test methodologies and measurement metrics promises benefits for the entire protection relay community. A total of fifty international experts from seventeen national committees. The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is currently working on a new series of standards that covers the functional requirements of measuring relays and related equipment used to protect electrical transmission and distribution systems.
