The role of protective relay with correct setting value is very important for the reliable operation of power : system. The setting process of a protective relay is difficult and requires hard work of calculations. Therefore, KEPCO as been using PROSET2000, a computer program system, in order to automate the setting process of protective relays in power transmission network since 2000. This system has a database and relay setting modules for each type of realy with coresponding Human and Computer Interaction(HCI). For the setting of a new type of relay, it require a new module, a HCI and a database table corresponding to the new relay. But it's update is not easy in case of new type of relay. This paper discussed the update method introducing a concept of Open Interface. It addressd a method to make a new HCI for new relay in view of object-oriented method using UML(Unified Modeling Language). Using the UML, we updated the PROSET2000. HCI screens for a new relay is generated automatically using the information of the new relay stored in the database. And, the database management module is upgraded to solve problems in manage and maintain the database in view of Open Interface.

The setting of protective relays, which is critical to the power system security and reliability, requires a huge volume of data processing and repetitive calculation. Since it has been performed by relay engineers manually, it is vulnerable to human errors, its computerization has been pursued, in which the efficient management of the data is the key to the success. The database for power system protection must accommodate not only the power system network data but also a variety of protective devices. Also its information should be able to be viewed and updated with easy by operators and by computer programs. This paper describes several existing database designs for power system protection, their advantages and disadvantages. Also this paper has identified the required function and designed the database for the KEPCO power system data structure for the benefit of the relay setting process, etc..
