Over-current relays (OCR) are the most popular protecting devices utilized in 6kV mining grids of open-pitch mines, QuangNinh province, VietNam. Depending on time of operation of OCR, there are many operating mode catergorized as: Instantaneous OCR, Inverse time OCR, Inverse definite minimum time (IDMT) OCR, Very invese relays, Extremely Inverse relays. Nowaday, to give protection against: Phase faults, Earth faults, Winding faults (in transformer), most of mining companies using Over-current relays with instantaneous characteristic. This charactersitic has the following important features: i) Operates in a definite time when current exceed relay’s pick-up/setting up values, ii) Relay’s operation is mainly relied on current magnitude, iii) Operating time is constant, iv) There isn’t any intentional time delay, v) The operating currents are progressively increased for the other relays when moving towars the source. Apart from many advantages, there is a significant disavantage of the relays’s operation: when there are faults at the beginning of feeders, OCR with instantaneous characteristic usually has a big-time tripping. Moreover, sometimes there are false trip of OCR because of improper set-up. In this study, an offline method is proposed with simulation in ETAP software to overcome these issues. With Gurobi-Optimizer application, an algorithm for identifying Time Multiplayer Setting (TMS) will be employed to generate inversetime characteristic/inverse definite minimum time charactersitic for improving the performance of over-current relay with better discriminative tripping. The proposed method is simulated on ETAP with a 6kV sample skeleton distribution network (in QuangNinh province of VietNam). The demonstrating results are: the prevention of false trip of OCR and the operating time of OCR is reduced.
