Three-phase power-directional relay

The type CCP13E relay is a very sensitive induction-cylinder power-directional relay
for three-phase alternating-current circuits.
The relay consists of three single-phase directional units with the three rotors
mounted on a single shaft.

contacts are held closed by two spiral springs that also complete the control
circuits to the moving contacts.

The CCP13E relay is functionally equivalent to the CCP13D relay, but the two relays
are not electrically interchangeable.

Because of its sensitivity and its real power-directional characteristics,

Since the CCP13E is very fast and very sensitive, it might operate for system
disturbances that result in momentary reversals of power through one or the other of
the two banks.
For this reason, the CCP13E should be used in conjunction with some
time delay when applied as discussed above.
Before the CCP13E is applied, certain calculations should be made to check the
