shedding, generator boosting, set point change in sub-transmission DC systems, gas turbine
startup and so on.
The 81URS function is very sensitive and accurate and can also be used to alert the operators that
the frequency deviates slightly from the set-point and that manual actions can be sufficient enough
to ensure the stability of the system. The under frequency signal is also used for over-excitation
detection. If the generator is still energized, the system experiences over-excitation due to the low
frequency.

3.20 Under frequency restore protection 81URE
3.20.1 81URE Overview
The feeder relay provides a one-stage under frequency restore protection with independent
definite time delay characteristics.
A decrease in system frequency occurs when the system experiences an increase in the real
power demand, or when a malfunction occurs within a generator governor or automatic generation
control system. The under frequency protection will operate and disconnect load from the power
system. After the frequency recovers to normal level, the disconnected load will be restored by
using the under frequency restore protection.
The calculation of the frequency is based on the voltage sampled values.
