Note:
1. This diagram illustrates the scheme in which the MAIN 1 and MAIN 2 relays are connected to E1 Teleprotection equipment
(Teleprotection over E1 interfaces) to implement the concept of "Reliable Communications" and provide 1+1 Redundancy for
establishing a resilient protection network.
2. The "OR" function is used to provide alternate tripping paths for both MAIN 1 and MAIN 2 protection relays, to provide fail-safe
distance protection.
