Badak LNG is a company that operates the largest LNG Plant in Indonesia with maximum production capacity of 22.5 MTPA. The company operates twelve (12) steam turbine generators and one gas turbine generator and one diesel engine generator to supply electricity for process, utility, storage, loading and plant support facility areas, which constitutes the criticality of power generator equipment to keep the reliability of production process. Generator protection relay is one of the equipment that monitors and protects the generator from fault resulting from either internal or external disturbance, preventing the generator from serious damages. Before 2015, Badak LNG used single function relays to protect the generators. The generators are protected by stator differential protection (87), current unbalance (46), loss of excitation (40), reverse power (32), time overcurrent with voltage restraint (51V), and time overcurrent ground (51G). These single function relays wield more disadvantages compared to the newer technology held by the digital relays. Since 2015, Badak LNG have started to replace the single function generator protection relays with the digital type ones.
