Network Time Protocol(NTP) is one of the oldest popular networking protocol for packet switched data networkto synchronize the time effectively. This paper represents interface of NTP for an embedded system to serve as client. Practical testing has been performed on electrical protection relay as an example embedded power protection device considering a client. Here, we exploit protection relay which need accurate time stamps for real time operation. These kinds of relay or power grid do not have Internet connectivity due to there is an issue for synchronizing clock in them that is why NTP is adopted for highly accurate time synchronization in protection relay. Lightweight implementation of NTP in user space which efficiently work as original NTPdaemon.
