    Woodward 1. Introduction and Application The digital multifunctional relay MRI3-ITE(R) has been designed as a universal time over current protection relay with thermal replica for generators, transformers and cables. The relay gives a complete thermal characteristic of the electrical equipment to be protected taking into account its initial load.

    Digital circuits The essential part of the MRI3-ITE relay is a powerful microcontroller. All of the operations, from the analogue digital conversion to the relay trip decision, are carried out by the microcontroller digi- tally. The relay program is located in an EPROM (Electrically-Programmable-Read-Only-Memory).
