In the illustra-tion it has been assumed that one-third second is a sufficient time to allowfor this purpose, but such a small setting cannot be used unless the relaysare Fig. 143.—Relay Layout for Ring System Systems Having More Than One Source of Power.—Such a system isshown in Fig. 143 with a generator placed at substation D. One difficultywould be encountered if the generator at A should be shut down and allthe load carried by the generator at D. In this case the entire relay sys-tem would have to be readjusted, as shown in Fig. 144. Although this SYSTEM OPERATION AND ECONOMICS 257 example is a simple one, it illustrates the condition which occurs whenevera complicated system of distribution is encountered. It also illustratesthe necessity for using relays whose adjustment can be quickly Feeders.—When parallel feeders are used, reverse-power relays Gn
