Computer-implemented method for configuring an electronic relay
First Claim
1. A method for configuring an electronic relay for an electric power distribution grid, said electronic relay being in operation operatively associated to a switching device of said electric power distribution grid to control operation of said switching device, wherein it comprises the following steps:
- providing a graphic user interface on a computer display, said graphic user interface including graphic resources activatable by a user;
providing first graphic resources including one or more first graphic objects uploaded on said graphic user interface to assist a user in selecting a set of protection functionalities to be provided by said electronic relay, each first graphic object being activatable by the user to select a corresponding set of protection functionalities;
providing second graphic resources on said graphic user interface to assist a user in providing configuration values to configure operating parameters processed by said electronic relay to provide the selected set of protection functionalities, said operating parameters comprising first protection parameters related to voltage protection functionalities and second protection parameters related to frequency protection functionalities;
checking whether said electronic relay meets minimum operating requirements to operate; and
if said electronic relay meets minimum operating requirements, transmitting configuration information including said configuration values to said electronic relay, said electronic relay being structured to control said switching device based on the configuration information.
