LEDs

The LHMI includes three protection indicators above the display: Ready, Start and

Trip.

There are 11 matrix programmable LEDs on front of the LHMI. The LEDs can be configured with PCM600 and the operation mode can be selected with the LHMI,

WHMI or PCM600.

Keypad

The LHMI keypad contains push buttons which are used to navigate in different views or menus. With the push buttons you can give open or close commands to objects in the primary circuit, for example, a circuit breaker, a contactor or a disconnector. The push buttons are also used to acknowledge alarms, reset indications, provide help and switch between local and remote control mode.

Technical Manual

Figure 5: Programmable push buttons with LEDs

The LHMI keypad on the left side of the protection relay contains 16 programmable push buttons with red LEDs.

The buttons and LEDs are freely programmable, and they can be configured both for operation and acknowledgement purposes. That way, it is possible to get acknowledgements of the executed actions associated with the buttons.

This combination can be useful, for example, for quickly selecting or changing a setting group, selecting or operating equipment, indicating field contact status or indicating or acknowledging individual alarms.

The WHMI allows secure access to the protection relay via a Web browser. When the Secure Communication parameter in the protection relay is activated, the

Web server is forced to take a secured (HTTPS) connection to WHMI using TLS encryption. The WHMI is verified with Internet Explorer 8.0, 9.0, 10.0 and 11.0.

WHMI is disabled by default.

Control operations are not allowed by WHMI.

WHMI offers several functions.

• Programmable LEDs and event lists

• System supervision

• Parameter settings

• Measurement display

• Disturbance records

• Fault records

• Load profile record

• Phasor diagram

• Single-line diagram

• Importing/Exporting parameters

• Report summary

The menu tree structure on the WHMI is almost identical to the one on the LHMI.

The WHMI can be accessed locally and remotely.

• Locally by connecting the laptop to the protection relay via the front communication port.

• Remotely over LAN/WAN.

Authorization

Four user categories have been predefined for the LHMI and the WHMI, each with different rights and default passwords.

The default passwords in the protection relay delivered from the factory can be changed with Administrator user rights.

If the relay-specific Administrator password is forgotten, ABB can provide a onetime reliable key to access the protection relay. For support, contact ABB. The recovery of the Administrator password takes a few days.

User authorization is disabled by default for LHMI but WHMI always uses authorization.

Audit trail

The protection relay offers a large set of event-logging functions. Critical system and protection relay security-related events are logged to a separate nonvolatile audit trail for the administrator.

Audit trail is a chronological record of system activities that allows the reconstruction and examination of the sequence of system and security-related events and changes in the protection relay. Both audit trail events and process related events can be examined and analyzed in a consistent method with the help of Event List in LHMI and WHMI and Event Viewer in PCM600.

The protection relay stores 2048 audit trail events to the nonvolatile audit trail.

Additionally, 1024 process events are stored in a nonvolatile event list. Both the audit trail and event list work according to the FIFO principle. Nonvolatile memory is based on a memory type which does not need battery backup nor regular component change to maintain the memory storage.

Audit trail events related to user authorization (login, logout, violation remote and violation local) are defined according to the selected set of requirements from IEEE

1686. The logging is based on predefined user names or user categories. The user audit trail events are accessible with IEC 61850-8-1, PCM600, LHMI and WHMI.

PCM600 Event Viewer can be used to view the audit trail events and process related events. Audit trail events are visible through dedicated Security events view. Since only the administrator has the right to read audit trail, authorization must be used in PCM600. The audit trail cannot be reset, but PCM600 Event Viewer can filter data. Audit trail events can be configured to be visible also in LHMI/WHMI Event list together with process related events.

To expose the audit trail events through Event list, define the Authority logging level parameter via Configuration > Authorization > Security.

This exposes audit trail events to all users.

Communication

The protection relay supports a range of communication protocols including

IEC 61850, IEC 61850-9-2 LE, IEC 60870-5-103, Modbus ® and DNP3. Profibus

DPV1 communication protocol is supported by using the protocol converter

SPA-ZC 302. Operational information and controls are available through these protocols. However, some communication functionality, for example, horizontal communication between the protection relays, is only enabled by the IEC 61850 communication protocol.

The IEC 61850 communication implementation supports all monitoring and control functions. Additionally, parameter settings, disturbance recordings and fault records can be accessed using the IEC 61850 protocol. Disturbance recordings are available to any Ethernet-based application in the IEC 60255-24 standard

COMTRADE file format. The protection relay can send and receive binary signals from other devices (so-called horizontal communication) using the IEC 61850-8-1

GOOSE profile, where the highest performance class with a total transmission time of 3 ms is supported. Furthermore, the protection relay supports sending and receiving of analog values using GOOSE messaging. The protection relay meets the GOOSE performance requirements for tripping applications in distribution substations, as defined by the IEC 61850 standard.

The protection relay can support five simultaneous clients. If PCM600 reserves one client connection, only four client connections are left, for example, for IEC 61850 and Modbus.

All communication connectors, except for the front port connector, are placed on integrated optional communication modules. The protection relay can be

(100Base-FX) or the fiber-optic LC connector (100Base-FX).

Self-healing Ethernet ring

For the correct operation of self-healing loop topology, it is essential that the external switches in the network support the RSTP protocol and that it is enabled in the switches. Otherwise, connecting the loop topology can cause problems to the network. The protection relay itself does not support link-down detection or RSTP.

The ring recovery process is based on the aging of the MAC addresses, and the linkup/link-down events can cause temporary breaks in communication. For a better performance of the self-healing loop, it is recommended that the external switch furthest from the protection relay loop is assigned as the root switch (bridge priority = 0) and the bridge priority increases towards the protection relay loop.

The end links of the protection relay loop can be attached to the same external switch or to two adjacent external switches. A self-healing Ethernet ring requires a communication module with at least two Ethernet interfaces for all protection relays.

Client A Client B

Managed Ethernet switch with RSTP support

Network A

Network B

Figure 7: Self-healing Ethernet ring solution

The Ethernet ring solution supports the connection of up to 30 protection relays. If more than 30 protection relays are to be connected, it is recommended that the network is split into several rings with no more than 30 protection relays per ring. Each protection relay has a 50-μs store-and-forward delay, and to fulfil the performance requirements for fast horizontal communication, the ring size is limited to 30 protection relays.

2.5.2

620 series

Technical Manual

Ethernet redundancy

IEC 61850 specifies a network redundancy scheme that improves the system availability for substation communication. It is based on two complementary

45

620 series overview 1MRS757644 H protocols defined in the IEC 62439-3:2012 standard: parallel redundancy protocol

PRP and high-availability seamless redundancy HSR protocol. Both protocols rely on the duplication of all transmitted information via two Ethernet ports for one logical network connection. Therefore, both are able to overcome the failure of a link or switch with a zero-switchover time, thus fulfilling the stringent real-time requirements for the substation automation horizontal communication and time synchronization.

PRP specifies that each device is connected in parallel to two local area networks.

HSR applies the PRP principle to rings and to the rings of rings to achieve cost-effective redundancy. Thus, each device incorporates a switch element that forwards frames from port to port. The HSR/PRP option is available for all 615 series protection relays. However, RED615 supports this option only over fiber optics.

IEC 62439-3:2012 cancels and replaces the first edition published in 2010.

These standard versions are also referred to as IEC 62439-3 Edition 1 and

IEC 62439-3 Edition 2. The protection relay supports IEC 62439-3:2012 and it is not compatible with IEC 62439-3:2010.

PRP

Each PRP node, called a double attached node with PRP (DAN), is attached to two independent LANs operated in parallel. These parallel networks in PRP are called LAN A and LAN B. The networks are completely separated to ensure failure independence, and they can have different topologies. Both networks operate in parallel, thus providing zero-time recovery and continuous checking of redundancy to avoid communication failures. Non-PRP nodes, called single attached nodes

(SANs), are either attached to one network only (and can therefore communicate only with DANs and SANs attached to the same network), or are attached through a redundancy box, a device that behaves like a DAN.

Figure 8: PRP solution

In case a laptop or a PC workstation is connected as a non-PRP node to one of the PRP networks, LAN A or LAN B, it is recommended to use a redundancy box device or an Ethernet switch with similar functionality between the PRP network

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H 620 series overview and SAN to remove additional PRP information from the Ethernet frames. In some cases, default PC workstation adapters are not able to handle the maximum-length

Ethernet frames with the PRP trailer.

There are different alternative ways to connect a laptop or a workstation as SAN to a PRP network.

• Via an external redundancy box (RedBox) or a switch capable of connecting to

PRP and normal networks

• By connecting the node directly to LAN A or LAN B as SAN

• By connecting the node to the protection relay's interlink port

HSR

HSR applies the PRP principle of parallel operation to a single ring, treating the two directions as two virtual LANs. For each frame sent, a node, DAN, sends two frames, one over each port. Both frames circulate in opposite directions over the ring and each node forwards the frames it receives, from one port to the other. When the originating node receives a frame sent to itself, it discards that to avoid loops; therefore, no ring protocol is needed. Individually attached nodes, SANs, such as laptops and printers, must be attached through a “redundancy box” that acts as a ring element. For example, a 615 or 620 series protection relay with HSR support can be used as a redundancy box.

Process bus

Process bus IEC 61850-9-2 defines the transmission of Sampled Measured Values within the substation automation system. International Users Group created a guideline IEC 61850-9-2 LE that defines an application profile of IEC 61850-9-2 to facilitate implementation and enable interoperability. Process bus is used for distributing process data from the primary circuit to all process bus compatible devices in the local network in a real-time manner. The data can then be processed

47

620 series overview 1MRS757644 H by any protection relay to perform different protection, automation and control functions.

UniGear Digital switchgear concept relies on the process bus together with current and voltage sensors. The process bus enables several advantages for the UniGear

Digital like simplicity with reduced wiring, flexibility with data availability to all devices, improved diagnostics and longer maintenance cycles.

With process bus the galvanic interpanel wiring for sharing busbar voltage value can be replaced with Ethernet communication. Transmitting measurement samples over process bus brings also higher error detection because the signal transmission is automatically supervised. Additional contribution to the higher availability is the possibility to use redundant Ethernet network for transmitting SMV signals.

Common Ethernet

Station bus (IEC 61850-8-1), process bus (IEC 61850-9-2 LE) and IEEE 1588 v2 time synchronization

48

Figure 10: Process bus application of voltage sharing and synchrocheck

The 620 series supports IEC 61850 process bus with sampled values of analog currents and voltages. The measured values are transferred as sampled values using the IEC 61850-9-2 LE protocol which uses the same physical Ethernet network as the IEC 61850-8-1 station bus. The intended application for sampled values is sharing the measured voltages from one 620 series protection relay to other devices with phase voltage based functions and 9-2 support.

The 620 series protection relays with process bus based applications use IEEE

1588 v2 Precision Time Protocol (PTP) according to IEEE C37.238-2011 Power

Profile for high accuracy time synchronization. With IEEE 1588 v2, the cabling infrastructure requirement is reduced by allowing time synchronization information to be transported over the same Ethernet network as the data communications.

1588 v2 support (COM0031...COM0034 or COM0037). See the IEC 61850 engineering guide for detailed system requirements and configuration details.

Secure communication

The protection relay supports secure communication for WHMI and file transfer protocol. If the Secure Communication parameter is activated, protocols require

TLS based encryption method support from the clients. In this case WHMI must be connected from a Web browser using the HTTPS protocol and in case of file transfer the client must use FTPS.

MMS client expects primary values from event reporting and data attribute reads.

MMS client expects nominal values from event reporting and data attribute reads; this is the default for PCM600.

For PCM600 use only, When Unit mode is set to "Primary", the PCM600 client can force its session to "Nominal" by selecting "Primary-Nominal" and thus parameterizing in native form. The selection is not stored and is therefore effective only for one session. This value has no effect if selected via the LHMI.

Self-supervision

The protection relay's extensive self-supervision system continuously supervises the relay’s software, hardware and certain external circuits. It handles the run-time fault situation and informs the user about a fault via the LHMI and through the communication channels. The target of the self-supervision is to safeguard the relay’s reliability by increasing both dependability and security. The dependability can be described as the relay’s ability to operate when required. The security can be described as the relay scheme’s ability to refrain from operating when not required.

The dependability is increased by letting the system operators know about the problem, giving them a chance to take the necessary actions as soon as possible.

The security is increased by preventing the relay from making false decisions, such as issuing false control commands.

There are two types of fault indications.

• Internal faults

• Warnings

Internal faults

When an internal relay fault is detected, the relay protection operation is disabled, the green Ready LED begins to flash and the self-supervision output relay is deenergized, i.e. the change-over contact is released.

Internal fault indications have the highest priority on the LHMI. None of the other LHMI indications can override the internal fault indication.

An indication about the fault is shown as a message on the LHMI. The text

Internal Fault with an additional text message, a code, date and time, is shown to indicate the fault type.

68 620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Basic functions

Different actions are taken depending on the severity of the internal fault. In case of a temporary fault, the protection relay tries to recover from the situation by restarting. Restarting varies per fault type. The restart procedure includes two stages; when the relay detects a fault, it restarts itself in a few seconds after the fault occurrence. If the relay did not recover after the first fast self-recovery attempts (typically 1-2 restarts), or the fault reoccurs during the next 60 minutes, the next self-recovery attempts (typically 3 restarts) are delayed for 10 minutes.

Exact recovery mechanism is described in

Table 26

. In case of a permanent fault, the protection relay stays in the internal fault mode. All output relays are de-energized and contacts are released for the internal fault. The protection relay continues to perform internal tests during the fault situation. If the internal fault disappears, the green Ready LED stop flashing and the protection relay returns to the normal service state. Internal Fault: All ok event appears in the event list after succesfull recovery.

One possible cause for an internal fault situation is a so-called soft error. The soft error is a probabilistic phenomenon which is rare in a single device, statistically not happening more often than once in a relay’s lifetime. No hardware failures are expected and a full recovery from the soft error is possible by a self-supervision controlled restart of the relay.

The self-supervision signal output operates on the closed-circuit principle. Under normal conditions, the protection relay is energized and the contact gaps 3-5 in slot

X100 is closed. If the auxiliary power supply fails or an internal fault is detected, the contact gaps 3-5 are opened.

The internal fault code indicates the type of internal relay fault. When a fault appears, the code must be recorded so that it can be reported to ABB customer service.

Fail-safe principle for relay protection

The relay behavior during an internal fault situation has to be considered when engineering trip circuits under the fail-safe principle. The considerations discussed and examples given are mainly based on the need of protection scheme reliability.

The reliability need can be divided into two subparts: dependability and security.

The dependability can be described as the protection scheme’s ability to operate when required. The security can be described as the protection scheme’s ability to refrain from operating when not required. The protection scheme fail-safe principle

Basic functions is typically related to satisfying these two performance criteria. Depending on the requirements set to the electricity distribution process, one of the criteria may get more attention than the other. However, in some industrial electricity distribution networks, the main (productization) process is so dependent on reliable electricity supply that both criteria are addressed equally.

The examples presented focus on the relay’s protection role in the fail-safe circuitry using traditional hardwiring. If communication between the relays, or to an upper level system, is a part of the fail-safe functionality, it must be also be a part of the circuitry.

In example 1, the fail-safe approach aims at securing motor shutdown via an emergency switch and in case the control voltage disappears. In case of a temporary internal relay fault, the circuit breaker is immediately tripped before the relay recovers from the situation.

The adjacent panels provide backup for each other in internal relay fault situations. In case of an internal relay fault, the situation is noticed by the relay in the adjacent panel and the circuit breaker in the panel with the faulty relay is tripped after a preset time delay. The additional time delay allows the relay to recover from the internal fault situation without tripping the circuit breaker.

In example 1, the fail-safe approach aims at securing circuit breaker tripping even if a relay fails. The incomer panel relay indicates the start of selected protection functions. This start signal is distributed to all load feeder panels. If a relay in the load feeder panel indicates an IRF status, the start signal of the incomer panel relay results in circuit breaker tripping. This approach offers basic protection for a load feeder while the actual protection relay performs a self-supervision controlled restart sequence.

In example 2, the fail-safe approach aims at securing circuit breaker tripping even if a relay fails. A relay in a panel measures also the adjacent panel’s currents (and voltages) and receives the necessary primary device’s position information. In other words, the relay in a panel functions as a backup relay for the adjacent panel.

This approach allows service continuation while the failed relay is waiting for spare parts or a complete replacement. The backup protection features provided by the adjacent panel’s relay do not necessarily fully match the features available in the main relay.

In example 3, the fail-safe approach aims at securing circuit breaker tripping even if one of the redundant relays fails. The scheme is often referred to as the 1-outof- 2 approach. This approach allows service continuation while the failed relay is waiting for spare parts or a complete replacement. The redundancy in this example covers relays and circuit breaker tripping coils but it can be expanded to auxiliary power supplies (two station batteries and isolated distribution), cabling, circuit breaker failure protection, and so on. Another variant of this approach is to have a main relay and a backup relay instead of two fully redundant relays. The backup relay does not have all the features of the main relay, mainly containing a minimum acceptable set of protection functions.

The protection relay includes a global conditioning function LEDPTRC that is used with the protection indication LEDs.

LED indication control should never be used for tripping purposes.

There is a separate trip logic function TRPPTRC available in the relay configuration.

LED indication control is preconfigured in a such way that all the protection function general start and operate signals are combined with this function

(available as output signals OUT_START and OUT_OPERATE ). These signals are always internally connected to Start and Trip LEDs. LEDPTRC collects and combines phase information from different protection functions (available as output signals

OUT_ST_A /_B /_C and OUT_OPR_A /_B /_C ). There is also combined earth fault information collected from all the earth-fault functions available in the relay configuration (available as output signals OUT_ST_NEUT and OUT_OPR_NEUT ).

Figure 23: Programmable LEDs on the right side of the display

All the programmable LEDs in the HMI of the protection relay have two colors, green and red. For each LED, the different colors are individually controllable. For example:

LEDx is green when AR is in progress and red when AR is locked out.

Each LED has two control inputs, ALARM and OK . The color setting is common for all the LEDs. It is controlled with the Alarm colour setting, the default value being

"Red". The OK input corresponds to the color that is available, with the default value being "Green".

Changing the Alarm colour setting to "Green" changes the color behavior of the

OK inputs to red.

The ALARM input has a higher priority than the OK input.

Each LED is seen in the Application Configuration tool as an individual function block. Each LED has user-editable description text for event description. The state

("None", "OK", "Alarm") of each LED can also be read under a common monitored data view for programmable LEDs.

Functionality

The protection relay has an internal real-time clock which can be either free-running or synchronized from an external source. The real-time clock is used for time stamping events, recorded data and disturbance recordings.

The protection relay is provided with a 48 hour capacitor backup that enables the real-time clock to keep time in case of an auxiliary power failure.

The setting Synch source determines the method to synchronize the real-time clock.

If it is set to “None”, the clock is free-running and the settings Date and Time can be used to set the time manually. Other setting values activate a communication protocol that provides the time synchronization. Only one synchronization method can be active at a time. IEEE 1588 v2 and SNTP provide time master redundancy.

The protection relay supports SNTP, IRIG-B, IEEE 1588 v2, DNP3, Modbus and IEC

60870-5-103 to update the real-time clock. IEEE 1588 v2 with GPS grandmaster clock provides the best accuracy ±1 µs. The accuracy using IRIG-B and SNTP is ±1 ms.

The protection relay's 1588 time synchronization complies with the IEEE

C37.238-2011 Power Profile, interoperable with IEEE 1588 v2. According to the power profile, the frame format used is IEEE 802.3 Ethernet frames with 88F7 Ethertype as communication service and the delay mechanism is P2P. PTP announce mode determines the format of PTP announce frames sent by the protection relay when acting as 1588 master, with options “Basic IEEE1588” and “Power Profile”. In the

“Power Profile” mode, the TLVs required by the IEEE C37.238-2011 Power Profile are included in announce frames.

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Basic functions

IEEE 1588 v2 time synchronization requires a communication card with redundancy support (COM0031...COM0037).

When Modbus TCP or DNP3 over TCP/IP is used, SNTP or IRIG-B time synchronization should be used for better synchronization accuracy.

With the legacy protocols, the synchronization message must be received within four minutes from the previous synchronization.

Otherwise bad synchronization status is raised for the protection relay.

With SNTP, it is required that the SNTP server responds to a request within 12 ms, otherwise the response is considered invalid.

The relay can use one of two SNTP servers, the primary or the secondary server. The primary server is mainly in use, whereas the secondary server is used if the primary server cannot be reached. While using the secondary SNTP server, the relay tries to switch back to the primary server on every third SNTP request attempt. If both the

SNTP servers are offline, event time stamps have the time invalid status. The time is requested from the SNTP server every 60 seconds. Supported SNTP versions are 3 and 4.

IRIG-B time synchronization requires the IRIG-B format B004/B005 according to the 200-04 IRIG-B standard. Older IRIG-B standards refer to these as B000/B001 with IEEE-1344 extensions. The synchronization time can be either UTC time or local time. As no reboot is necessary, the time synchronization starts immediately after the IRIG-B sync source is selected and the IRIG-B signal source is connected.

IRIG-B time synchronization requires a COM card with an IRIG-B input.

Functionality

The protection relay supports six setting groups. Each setting group contains parameters categorized as group settings inside application functions. The customer can change the active setting group at run time.

The active setting group can be changed by a parameter or via binary inputs depending on the mode selected with the Configuration > Setting Group > SG

operation mode setting.

The default value of all inputs is FALSE, which makes it possible to use only the required number of inputs and leave the rest disconnected. The setting group selection is not dependent on the SG_x_ACT outputs.

When binary input BI_SG_4 is FALSE , setting groups 1-3 are selected with binary inputs BI_SG_2 and BI_SG_3 . When binary input

BI_SG_4 is TRUE , setting groups 4-6 are selected with binary inputs

BI_SG_5 and BI_SG_6 .

Value of the SG_LOGIC_SEL output is TRUE.

The setting group (SG) is changed whenever switching the SG operation mode setting from "Operator" to either "Logic mode 1" or "Logic mode

2." Thus, it is recommended to select the preferred operation mode at the time of installation and commissioning and not change it throughout the protection relay's service. Changing the SG operation mode setting from "Logic mode 1" to "Logic mode 2" or from "Logic mode 2" to "Logic mode 1" does not affect the setting group (SG).

For example, six setting groups can be controlled with three binary inputs. The SG operation mode is set to “Logic mode 2” and inputs BI_SG_2 and BI_SG_5 are connected together the same way as inputs BI_SG_3 and BI_SG_6 .

Application configuration and Test mode

The physical outputs from control commands to process are blocked with ”IED blocked” and “IED test and blocked” modes. If physical outputs need to be blocked from the protection, the application configuration must be used to block these signals. Blocking scheme needs to use BEH_BLK output of PROTECTION function block.

The mode of all logical nodes located under CTRL logical device can be set with

Control mode. The Control mode parameter is available via the HMI or PCM600 path Configuration > Control > General. By default, Control mode can only be set locally through LHMI. To set the parameters from WHMI the Remote test mode parameter under Tests > IED test > Test mode should first be set to “All Levels”.

Control mode inherits its value from Test mode but Control mode ”On”, “Blocked” and “Off” can also be set independently. Control mode is also available via IEC 61850 communication (CTRL.LLN0.Mod).

Application configuration and Control mode

The physical outputs from commands to process are blocked with “Blocked“ mode.

If physical outputs need to be blocked totally, meaning also commands from the binary inputs, the application configuration must be used to block these signals.

Blocking scheme uses BEH_BLK output of CONTROL function block.

Authorization

By default, Test mode and Control mode can only be changed from LHMI. It is possible to write test mode by remote client, if it is needed in configuration. This is done via LHMI only by setting the Remote test mode parameter via Tests >

IED test > Test mode. Remote operation is possible only when control position of the relay is in remote position. Local and remote control can be selected with R/L button or via Control function block in application configuration.

When using the Signal Monitoring tool to force online values, the following conditions need to be met.

• Remote force is set to “All levels”

• Test mode is enabled

• Control position of the relay is in remote position

Fault recorder FLTRFRC

Function block

Figure 32: Function block

Functionality

The protection relay has the capacity to store the records of 128 latest fault events.

Fault records include fundamental or RMS current values. The records enable the user to analyze recent power system events. Each fault record (FLTRFRC) is marked with an up-counting fault number and a time stamp that is taken from the beginning of the fault.

The fault recording period begins from the start event of any protection function and ends if any protection function trips or the start is restored before the operate event. If a start is restored without an operate event, the start duration shows the protection function that has started first.

Start duration that has the value of 100% indicates that a protection function has operated during the fault and if none of the protection functions has been operated, Start duration shows always values less than 100%.

The Fault recorded data Protection and Start duration is from the same protection function. The Fault recorded data operate time shows the time of the actual fault period. This value is the time difference between the activation of the internal start and operate signals. The actual operate time also includes the starting time and the delay of the output relay. The Fault recorded data Breaker clear time is the time difference between internal operate signal and activation of CB_CLRD input.

If some functions in relay application are sensitive to start frequently it might be advisable to set the setting parameter Trig mode to “From operate”. Then only faults that cause an operate event trigger a new fault recording.

The fault-related current, voltage, frequency, angle values, shot pointer and the active setting group number are taken from the moment of the operate event, or from the beginning of the fault if only a start event occurs during the fault. The maximum current value collects the maximum fault currents during the fault. In case

Sensor inputs for currents and voltages

This chapter gives short examples on how to define the correct parameters for sensor measurement interfaces.

Sensors can have correction factors, measured and verified by the sensor manufacturer, to increase the measurement accuracy. Correction factors are recommended to be set to the relay. Two types of correction factors are available for voltage and current (Rogowski) sensors. The Amplitude correction factor is named Amplitude corr. A(B/C) and Angle correction factor is named Angle corr A(B/C). These correction factors can be found on the Sensor's rating plate and/or sensor routine test protocol. If the correction factors are not available, contact the sensor manufacturer for more information.

Current (Rogowski) sensor setting example

In this example, an 80 A/0.150 V at 50 Hz (0.180 V at 60 Hz) sensor, such as the example shown in

Figure 33

, is used in a 50 Hz electrical network. The application has a 150 A nominal current (In) corresponding to the protected object’s nominal current. The application nominal current is set to Rogowski sensor setting Primary current. Taken from the sensor’s technical data, this example sensor can be used with up to 4000 A application nominal current.

As the Rogowski sensor is linear and does not saturate, the 80 A/0.150 V at 50 Hz sensor also works as a 150 A/0.28125 V at 50 Hz sensor. When defining another primary value for the sensor, also the nominal voltage has to be redefined to maintain the same transformation ratio. However, the setting in the protection relay ( Rated Secondary Value) is not in V but in mV/Hz, which makes the same setting Rated Secondary Value valid for both

50 and 60 Hz nominal frequency.

When considering setting values for current sensor interfaces and for protection functions utilizing these measurements, it should be noted that the sensor measurement inputs in the relay have limits for linear behavior. When this limit is exceeded, the input starts to saturate. The saturation is reflected to the protection functions connected to the sensor inputs. To ensure that the related protection functions operate correctly, the start value setting for protection functions utilizing either instantaneous or definite minimum time characteristics must not exceed the linear measurement range. Furthermore, the effect on protection functions utilizing inverse time characteristics should be considered. The upper limit of the linear measurement range depends on the selected

application nominal current and the type of the current sensor used. Table

47

shows the limits for an 80A/150mV 50Hz sensor.

Table 47 shows the upper limits of the linear measurement range based

on a certain range in application nominal current. The linear measurement limit for a given application nominal current can be derived from the values stated in the table with a simple proportion equation. For example, the upper limit for linear measurement for 3000 A application nominal current would be 17.5 xIn.

It can also be calculated from Table 47 that with the stated sensor the relay

input can linearly measure up to 50 kA (RMS) short circuit currents.

Rogowski sensor and overcurrent protection setting evaluation example

A 20 kV utility substation with a single busbar switchgear rated up to 40 kA shortcircuit currents has one incomer and 20 outgoing feeder relays using 80 A/0.150 V at 50 Hz Rogowski current sensors with rating plate

values similar to Figure 33 . For the incomer panel, electrical system designer

has evaluated the application nominal current to be 1250 A. Customer specification for these protection relays defines normal instantaneous and time-delayed overcurrent and earth-fault protection functions. Overcurrent protection requires functions to be settable up to 20 xIn.

The sensor setting Primary current is set to be the same as the evaluated application nominal current 1250 A. According to the sensor’s technical data,

620 series

From

it is seen that with the 1250 A application nominal current value, the maximum setting for overcurrent protection is 40 xIn. This covers the customer specification requirements for overcurrent settings of up to

20 xIn.

Voltage sensor setting example

The voltage sensor is based on the resistive divider or capacitive divider principle. Therefore, the voltage is linear throughout the whole measuring range. The output signal is a voltage, directly proportional to the primary voltage. For the voltage sensor, all parameters are readable directly from its rating plate and/or sensor routine test protocol, and conversions are not needed.

Technical Manual

Figure 34: Example of ABB voltage sensor KEVA 17.5 B21 rating plate

In this example the system phase-to-phase voltage rating is 10 kV. Thus, the

Primary voltage parameter is set to 10 kV. For protection relays with sensor measurement support, the Voltage input type is set to "Voltage sensor". The

VT connection parameter is set to the "WYE" type. The division ratio for ABB voltage sensors is most often 10000:1. Thus, the Division ratio parameter is usually set to "10000". The primary voltage is proportionally divided by this division ratio.

When a binary input is inverted, the state of the input is TRUE (1) when no control voltage is applied to its terminals. Accordingly, the input state is FALSE (0) when a control voltage is applied to the terminals of the binary input.

Oscillation suppression

Oscillation suppression is used to reduce the load from the system when a binary input starts oscillating. A binary input is regarded as oscillating if the number of valid state changes (= number of events after filtering) during one second is equal to or greater than the set oscillation level value. During oscillation, the binary input is blocked (the status is invalid) and an event is generated. The state of the input will not change when it is blocked, that is, its state depends on the condition before blocking.

The binary input is regarded as non-oscillating if the number of valid state changes during one second is less than the set oscillation level value minus the set oscillation hysteresis value. Note that the oscillation hysteresis must be set lower than the oscillation level to enable the input to be restored from oscillation. When the input returns to a non-oscillating state, the binary input is deblocked (the status is valid) and an event is generated.

Binary outputs

The protection relay provides a number of binary outputs used for tripping, executing local or remote control actions of a breaker or a disconnector, and for connecting the protection relay to external annunciation equipment for indicating, signalling and recording.

Power output contacts are used when the current rating requirements of the contacts are high, for example, for controlling a breaker, such as energizing the breaker trip and closing coils.

Basic functions

3.12.1

3.12.1.1

1MRS757644 H

The contacts used for external signalling, recording and indicating, the signal outputs, need to adjust to smaller currents, but they can require a minimum current

(burden) to ensure a guaranteed operation.

The protection relay provides both power output and signal output contacts. To guarantee proper operation, the type of the contacts used are chosen based on the operating and reset time, continuous current rating, make and carry for short time, breaking rate and minimum connected burden. A combination of series or parallel contacts can also be used for special applications. When appropriate, a signal output can also be used to energize an external trip relay, which in turn can be confiugred to energize the breaker trip or close coils.

Using an external trip relay can require an external trip circuit supervision relay. It can also require wiring a separate trip relay contact back to the protection relay for breaker failure protection function.

All contacts are freely programmable, except the internal fault output IRF.

Power output contacts

Power output contacts are normally used for energizing the breaker closing coil and trip coil, external high burden lockout or trip relays.

Dual single-pole power outputs PO1 and PO2

Dual (series-connected) single-pole (normally open/form A) power output contacts

PO1 and PO2 are rated for continuous current of 8 A. The contacts are normally used for closing circuit breakers and energizing high burden trip relays. They can be arranged to trip the circuit breakers when the trip circuit supervision is not available or when external trip circuit supervision relay is provided.

The power outputs are included in slot X100 of the power supply module.

The outputs are normally used in applications that require fast relay output contact activation time to achieve fast opening of a breaker, such as, arc-protection or breaker failure protection, where fast operation is required either to minimize fault effects to the equipment or to avoid a fault to expand to a larger area. With the high-speed outputs, the total time from the application to the relay output contact activation is 5...6 ms shorter than when using output contacts with conventional mechanical output relays. The high-speed power outputs have a continuous rating of 6 A. When two of HSO contacts are connected in series, the breaking rate is equal to that of output contact PO1.

High-speed power contacts are part of the card BIO0007 with eight binary inputs and three HSOs. They are optional alternatives to conventional BIO cards of the protection relay.

Signal output contacts

Signal output contacts are single-pole, single (normally open/form A or changeover/form C) signal output contacts (SO1, SO2,...) or parallel connected dual contacts.

The signal output contacts are used for energizing, for example, external low burden trip relays, auxiliary relays, annunciators and LEDs.

A single signal contact is rated for a continuous current of 5 A. It has a make and carry for 0.5 seconds at 15 A.

When two contacts are connected in parallel, the relay is of a different design. It has the make and carry rating of 30 A for 0.5 seconds. This can be applied for energizing breaker close coil and tripping coil. Due to the limited breaking capacity, a breaker auxiliary contact can be required to break the circuit.

When the application requires high making and breaking duty, it is possible to use HSO contacts in the protection relay or an external interposing auxiliary relay.

Internal fault signal output IRF

The internal fault signal output (change-over/form C) IRF is a single contact included in the power supply module of the protection relay.

RTD/mA inputs

Functionality

The RTD and mA analog input module is used for monitoring and metering current

(mA), temperature (°C) and resistance (Ω). Each input can be linearly scaled for various applications, for example, transformer’s tap changer position indication.

Each input has independent limit value supervision and deadband supervision functions, including warning and alarm signals.

Operation principle

All the inputs of the module are independent RTD and mA channels with individual protection, reference and optical isolation for each input, making them galvanically isolated from each other and from the rest of the module. However, the RTD inputs share a common ground.

Basic functions 1MRS757644 H

3.13.2.1

3.13.2.2

Selection of input signal type

The function module inputs accept current or resistance type signals. The inputs are configured for a particular type of input type by the channel-specific Input mode setting. The default value for all inputs is “Not in use”, which means that the channel is not sampled at all, and the output value quality is set accordingly.

Description

Default selection. Used when the corresponding input is not used.

Selection for analog DC milliampere current inputs in the input range of

0...20 mA.

Selection for RTD inputs in the input range of 0...2000 Ω.

Selection for RTD inputs, when temperature sensor is used. All the selectable sensor types have their resistance vs. temperature characteristics stored in the module; default measuring range is -40...200°C.

Selection of output value format

Each input has independent Value unit settings that are used to select the unit for the channel output. The default value for the Value unit setting is “Dimensionless”.

Input minimum and Input maximum, and Value maximum and Value minimum settings have to be adjusted according to the input channel. The default values for these settings are set to their maximum and minimum setting values.

When the channel is used for temperature sensor type, set the Value unit setting to

“Degrees celsius”. When Value unit is set to “Degrees celsius”, the linear scaling is not possible, but the default range (-40…200 °C) can be set smaller with the Value maximum and Value minimum settings.

When the channel is used for DC milliampere signal and the application requires a linear scaling of the input range, the Value unit setting value has to be

"Dimensionless”, where the input range can be linearly scaled with settings Input minimum and Input maximum to Value minimum and Value maximum. When milliampere is used as an output unit, Value unit has to be "Ampere”. When Value unit is set to “Ampere”, the linear scaling is not possible, but the default range (0…

20 mA) can be set smaller with the Value maximum and Value minimum settings.

When the channel is used for resistance type signals and the application requires a linear scaling of the input range, the Value unit setting value has to be

"Dimensionless”, where the input range can be linearly scaled with the setting

Input minimum and Input maximum to Value minimum and Value maximum. When resistance is used as an output unit, Value unit has to be "Ohm". When Value unit is set to “Ohm”, the linear scaling is not possible, but the default range (0…2000 Ω) can be set smaller with the Value maximum and Value minimum settings.

Input linear scaling

Each RTD/mA input can be scaled linearly by the construction of a linear output function in respect to the input. The curve consists of two points, where the y-axis

( Input minimum and Input maximum) defines the input range and the x-axis (Value minimum and Value maximum) is the range of the scaled value of the input.

The input scaling can be bypassed by selecting Value unit = "Ohm" when

Input mode = "Resistance" is used and by selecting Value unit = "Ampere" when Input mode = "0...20 mA" is used.

Example for linear scaling

Milliampere input is used as tap changer position information. The sensor information is from 4 mA to 20 mA that is equivalent to the tap changer position from -36 to 36, respectively.

Measurement chain supervision

Each input contains a functionality to monitor the input measurement chain. The circuitry monitors the RTD channels continuously and reports a circuitry break of any enabled input channel. If the measured input value is outside the limits, minimum/maximum value is shown in the corresponding output. The quality of the corresponding output is set accordingly to indicate misbehavior in the RTD/mA input.

Self-supervision

Each input sample is validated before it is fed into the filter algorithm. The samples are validated by measuring an internally set reference current immediately after the inputs are sampled. Each RTD sensor type has expected current based on the sensor type. If the measured offset current deviates from the reference current more than 20%, the sample is discarded and the output is set to invalid. The invalid measure status deactivates as soon as the measured input signal is within the measurement offset.

Calibration

RTD and mA inputs are calibrated at the factory. The calibration circuitry monitors the RTD channels continuously and reports a circuitry break of any channel.

Limit value supervision

The limit value supervision function indicates whether the measured value of

AI_INST# exceeds or falls below the set limits. All the measuring channels have an individual limit value supervision function. The measured value contains the corresponding range information AI_RANGE# and has a value in the range of 0 to 4:

• 0: “normal”

• 1: “high”

• 2: “low”

• 3: “high-high”

• 4: “low-low”

The range information changes and the new values are reported.

When the measured value exceeds either the Value maximum setting or the Value minimum setting, the corresponding quality is set to out of range and a maximum or minimum value is shown when the measured value exceeds the added hysteresis, respectively. The hysteresis is added to the extreme value of the range limit to allow the measurement slightly to exceed the limit value before it is considered out of range.

Deadband supervision

Each input has an independent deadband supervision. The deadband supervision function reports the measured value according to integrated changes over a time period.

620 series

Technical Manual

Figure 46: Integral deadband supervision

The deadband value used in the integral calculation is configured with the Value deadband setting. The value represents the percentage of the difference between the maximum and minimum limits in the units of 0.001 percent * seconds. The reporting delay of the integral algorithms in seconds is calculated with the formula:

RTD/mA input connection

RTD inputs can be used with a 2-wire or 3-wire connection with common ground.

When using the 3-wire connection, it is important that all three wires connecting the sensor are symmetrical, that is, the wires are of the same type and length. Thus the wire resistance is automatically compensated.

In the 2-wire connection, the lead resistance is not compensated. This scheme may be adopted when the lead resistance is negligible when compared to the RTD resistance or when the error so introduced is acceptable for the application in which it is used.

RTD/mA card variants

The available variants of RTD cards are 6RTD/2mA and 2RTD/1mA. The features are similar in both cards.

The available variants of RTD cards are 6RTD/2mA and 2RTD/1mA/3SO with an RTD capability. The features are similar in both cards.

6RTD/2mA card

This card accepts two milliampere inputs and six inputs from the RTD sensors. The inputs 1 and 2 are used for current measurement, whereas inputs from 3 to 8 are used for resistance type of measurements.

Resistance and temperature sensors can be connected to the 6RTD/2mA board with 3-wire and 2-wire connections.

Function block

3.14.3.2

Figure 54: Function block

Functionality

The ULTVTR function is used in the receiver application to perform the supervision for the sampled values and to connect the received analog phase voltage inputs to the application. Synchronization accuracy, sampled value frame transfer delays and missing frames are being supervised.

3.14.3.3

3.14.3.4

The typical additional operate time increase is +2 ms for all the receiver application functions (using either local or remote samples) when SMV is used.

Operation principle

The ALARM in the receiver is activated if the synchronization accuracy of the sender or the receiver is either unknown or worse than 8 ms. The output is held on for 10 seconds after the synchronization accuracy returns within limits.

ALARM is activated when two or more consecutive SMV frames are lost or late. A single loss of frame is corrected with a zero-order hold scheme. In this case the effect on protection is considered negligible and the WARNING or ALARM outputs are not activated. The output is held on for 10 seconds after the conditions return to normal.

The SMV Max Delay parameter defines how long the receiver waits for the SMV frames before activating the ALARM output. This parameter can be accessed via

Configuration > System > Common. Waiting of the SMV frames also delays the local measurements of the receiver to keep them correctly time aligned. The SMV Max

Delay values include sampling, processing and network delay.

The MINCB_OPEN input signal is supposed to be connected through a protection relay's binary input to the NC auxiliary contact of the miniature circuit breaker protecting the VT secondary circuit. The MINCB_OPEN signal sets the FUSEF_U output signal to block all the voltage-related functions when MCB is in the open state.

The WARNING output in the receiver is activated if the synchronization accuracy of the sender or the receiver is worse than 4 μs. The output is held on for 10 seconds after the synchronization accuracy returns within limits.

The WARNING output is always internally active whenever the ALARM output is active.

The receiver activates the WARNING and ALARM outputs if any of the quality bits, except for the derived bit, is activated. When the receiver is in the test mode, it accepts SMV frames with test bit without activating the WARNING and ALARM outputs.

In case the GOOSERCV_ENUM function block does not receive the value from the sending device or it is invalid, the default value (0) is used in function outputs.

The outputs FWD and REV are extracted from the enumerated input value.

The analog value scaling function SCA4GAPC is used for scaling the analog value. It allows creating events from analog values.

The analog value received via the AIn_VALUE input is scaled with the Scale ratio n setting. The scaled value is available on the AOn_VALUE output.

Analog input range is from –10000.0 to 10000.0.

Analog output range is from –2000000.0 to 2000000.0.

If the value of the AIn_VALUE input exceeds the analog input range,

AOn_VALUE is set to 0.0.

If the result of AIn_VALUE multiplied by the Scale ratio n setting exceeds the analog output range, AOn_VALUE shows the minimum or maximum value, according to analog value range.

3.17.10.2

Functionality

Local/Remote control is by default realized through the R/L button on the front panel. The control via binary input can be enabled by setting the value of the

LR control setting to "Binary input". The binary input control requires that the

CONTROL function is instantiated in the product configuration.

Local/Remote control supports multilevel access for control operations in substations according to the IEC 61850 standard. Multilevel control access with separate station control access level is not supported by other protocols than IEC

61850.

The actual Local/Remote control state is evaluated by the priority scheme on the function block inputs. If more than one input is active, the input with the highest priority is selected.

The actual state is reflected on the CONTROL function outputs. Only one output is active at a time.

The station authority check is not in use by default.

L/R control access

Four different Local/Remote control access scenarios are possible depending on the selected station authority level: “L,R”, “L,R,L+R”, “L,S,R” and “L, S, S+R, L+S,

L+S+R”. If control commands need to be allowed from multiple levels, multilevel access can be used. Multilevel access is possible only by using the station authority levels “L,R,L+R” and “L, S, S+R, L+S, L+S+R”. Multilevel access status is available from

IEC 61850 data object CTRL.LLN0.MltLev.

Control access selection is made with R/L button or CONTROL function block and IEC 61850 data object CTRL.LLN0.LocSta. When writing CTRL.LLN0.LocSta IEC

61850 data object, IEC 61850 command originator category station must be used by the client, and remote IEC 61850 control access must be allowed by the relay station authority. CTRL.LLN0.LocSta data object value is retained in the nonvolatile memory. The present control status can be monitored in the HMI or PCM600 via

Monitoring > Control command with the LR state parameter or from the IEC 61850 data object CTRL.LLN0. LocKeyHMI.

IEC 61850 command originator category is always set by the IEC 61850 client.

The relay supports station and remote IEC 61850 command originator categories, depending on the selected station authority level.

Station authority level “L,R"

Relay's default station authority level is “L,R”. In this scenario only local or remote control access is allowed. Control access with IEC 61850 command originator category station is interpreted as remote access. There is no multilevel access.

Functionality

The generic control point (16 pcs) function SPCGAPC can be used in combination with other function blocks such as FKEYGGIO. SPCGAPC offers the capability to activate its outputs through a local or remote control. The local control is provided through the buttons in the front panel and the remote control is provided through communications. SPCGAPC has two modes of operation. In the "Toggle" mode, the block toggles the output signal for every input pulse received. In the "Pulsed" mode, the block generates an output pulse of a preset duration.

For example, if the Operation mode is "Toggle", the output O# is initially “False”.

The rising edge in IN# sets O# to “True”. The falling edge of IN# has no effect. Next rising edge of IN# sets O# to “False”.

Functionality

The remote generic control points function SPCRGAPC is dedicated only for remote controlling, that is, SPCRGAPC cannot be controlled locally. The remote control is provided through communications.

3.17.12.3

620 series

Technical Manual

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

SPCRGAPC has the Operation mode, Pulse length and Description settings available to control all 16 outputs. By default, the Operation mode setting is set to "Off". This disables the controllable signal output. SPCRGAPC also has a general setting Loc

Rem restriction, which enables or disables the local or remote state functionality.

When the Operation mode is set to "Toggle", the corresponding output toggles between "True" and "False" for every input pulse received. The state of the output is stored in a nonvolatile memory and restored if the protection relay is restarted.

When the Operation mode is set to "Pulsed", the corresponding output can be used to produce the predefined length of pulses. Once activated, the output remains active for the duration of the set pulse length. When activated, the additional activation command does not extend the length of pulse. Thus, the pulse needs to be ended before the new activation can occur.

195

Basic functions 1MRS757644 H

3.17.12.4

The Description setting can be used for storing signal names for each output.

Each control point or SPCRGAPC can only be accessed remotely through communication. SPCRGAPC follows the local or remote (L/R) state if the setting

Loc Rem restriction is "true". If the Loc Rem restriction setting is "false", local or remote (L/R) state is ignored, that is, all controls are allowed regardless of the local or remote state.

The BLOCK input can be used for blocking the output functionality. The BLOCK input operation depends on the Operation mode setting. If the Operation mode setting is set to "Toggle", the output state cannot be changed when the input BLOCK is TRUE.

If the Operation mode setting is set to "Pulsed", the activation of the

BLOCK input resets the output to the FALSE state.

Programmable buttons FKEYGGIO

Function block

3.17.14.2

3.17.14.3

Figure 111: Function block

Functionality

The programmable buttons function FKEYGGIO is a simple interface between the panel and the application. The user input from the buttons available on the front panel is transferred to the assigned functionality and the corresponding LED is ON or OFF for indication. The behavior of each function key in the specific application is configured by connection with other application functions. This gives the maximum flexibility.

Operation principle

Inputs L1..L16

represent the LEDs on the protection relay's LHMI. When an input is set to TRUE, the corresponding LED is lit. When a function key on LHMI is pressed, the corresponding output K1..K16

is set to TRUE.

Generic up-down counter UDFCNT

Function block

Basic functions

3.17.15.2

3.17.15.3

Figure 112: Function block

Functionality

The generic up-down counter function UDFCNT counts up or down for each positive edge of the corresponding inputs. The counter value output can be reset to zero or preset to some other value if required.

The function provides up-count and down-count status outputs, which specify the relation of the counter value to a loaded preset value and to zero respectively.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of UDFCNT can be described with a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

620 series

Technical Manual

Figure 113: Functional module diagram

Up-down counter

Each rising edge of the UP_CNT input increments the counter value CNT_VAL by one and each rising edge of the DOWN_CNT input decrements the CNT_VAL by one. If there is a rising edge at both the inputs UP_CNT and DOWN_CNT , the counter value

CNT_VAL is unchanged. The CNT_VAL is available in the monitored data view.

The counter value CNT_VAL is stored in a nonvolatile memory. The range of the counter is 0...+2147483647. The count of CNT_VAL saturates at the final value of

2147483647, that is, no further increment is possible.

The value of the setting Counter load value is loaded into counter value CNT_VAL either when the LOAD input is set to "True" or when the Load Counter is set to

"Load" in the LHMI. Until the LOAD input is "True", it prevents all further counting.

205

Basic functions 1MRS757644 H

3.17.15.4

3.17.15.5

3.17.15.6

206

The function also provides status outputs UPCNT_STS and DNCNT_STS . The

UPCNT_STS is set to "True" when the CNT_VAL is greater than or equal to the setting

Counter load value.

DNCNT_STS is set to "True" when the CNT_VAL is zero.

The RESET input is used for resetting the function. When this input is set to "True" or when Reset counter is set to "reset", the

CNT_VAL is forced to zero.

Application

When UDFCNT is connected to a relay binary input, two settings of binary input need to be checked to ensure the counter is working correctly.

• Input # filter time. All pulses that are shorter than the filter time are not detected.

• Binary input oscillation suppression threshold. The binary input is blocked if the number of valid state changes during one second is equal to or greater than the set oscillation level value.

With the correct settings, UDFCNT can record correctly up to 20 pulses per second.

For example, to constantly record 20 pulses per second from slot X110 binary input

1, when the pulse length is 25 ms pulse high and 25 ms pulse low time, the following settings are recommended.

• Input 1 filter time is set to “5...15 ms” via Configuration > I/O modules >

X110(BIO) > Input filtering

• Input osc. level is set to “45...50 events/s” via Configuration > I/O modules >

Common settings

• Input osc. hyst is set to “2 events/s” via Configuration > I/O modules > Common settings

Technical Manual

Functionality

The protection relay is provided with a load profile recorder. The load profile feature stores the historical load data captured at a periodical time interval (demand interval). Up to 12 load quantities can be selected for recording and storing in a

207

Basic functions 1MRS757644 H

3.19.2.1

208 nonvolatile memory. The value range for the recorded load quantities is about eight times the nominal value, and values larger than that saturate. The recording time depends on a settable demand interval parameter and the amount of quantities selected. The record output is in the COMTRADE format.

Quantities

Selectable quantities are product-dependent.

If the data source for the selected quantity is removed, for example, with

Application Configuration in PCM600, the load profile recorder stops recording it and the previously collected data are cleared.

Length of record

The recording capability is about 7.4 years when one quantity is recorded and the demand interval is set to 180 minutes. The recording time scales down proportionally when a shorter demand time is selected or more quantities are recorded. The recording lengths in days with different settings used are presented

Uploading of record

The protection relay stores the load profile COMTRADE files to the

C:\LDP\COMTRADE folder. The files can be uploaded with the PCM600 tool or any appropriate computer software that can access the C:\LDP\COMTRADE folder.

The load profile record consists of two COMTRADE file types: the configuration file

(.CFG) and the data file (.DAT). The file name is same for both file types.

To ensure that both the uploaded file types are generated from the same data content, the files need to be uploaded successively. Once either of the files is uploaded, the recording buffer is halted to give time to upload the other file.

Data content of the load profile record is sequentially updated.

Therefore, the size attribute for both COMTRADE files is "0".

Clearing of record

The load profile record can be cleared with Reset load profile rec via HMI, communication or the ACT input in PCM600. Clearing of the record is allowed only on the engineer and administrator authorization levels.

The load profile record is automatically cleared if the quantity selection parameters are changed or any other parameter which affects the content of the COMTRADE configuration file is changed. Also, if data source for selected quantity is removed, for example, with ACT, the load profile recorder stops recording and previously collected data are cleared.

Configuration

The load profile record can be configured with the PCM600 tool or any tool supporting the IEC 61850 standard.

The load profile record can be enabled or disabled with the Operation setting under the Configuration/Load Profile Record menu.

Each protection relay can be mapped to each of the quantity channels of the load profile record. The mapping is done with the Quantity selection setting of the corresponding quantity channel.

The IP number of the protection relay and the content of the Bay name setting are both included in the COMTRADE configuration file for identification purposes.

The memory consumption of load profile record is supervised, and indicated with two signals MEM_WARN and MEM_ALARM , which could be used to notify the customer that recording should be backlogged by reading the recorded data from

Functionality

The three-phase non-directional overcurrent protection function PHxPTOC is used as one-phase, two-phase or three-phase non-directional overcurrent and shortcircuit protection.

The function starts when the current exceeds the set limit. The operate time characteristics for low stage PHLPTOC and high stage PHHPTOC can be selected to be either definite time ( DT) or inverse definite minimum time ( IDMT). The instantaneous stage PHIPTOC always operates with the DT characteristic.

620 series

Technical Manual

239

Protection functions

4.1.1.4

1MRS757644 H

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of PHxPTOC can be described by using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Figure 119: Functional module diagram

Level detector

The measured phase currents are compared phasewise to the set Start value. If the measured value exceeds the set Start value, the level detector reports the exceeding of the value to the phase selection logic. If the ENA_MULT input is active, the Start value setting is multiplied by the Start value Mult setting.

The protection relay does not accept the Start value or Start value Mult setting if the product of these settings exceeds the Start value setting range.

The start value multiplication is normally done when the inrush detection function

(INRPHAR) is connected to the ENA_MULT input.

Figure 120: Start value behavior with ENA_MULT input activated

Phase selection logic

If the fault criteria are fulfilled in the level detector, the phase selection logic detects the phase or phases in which the measured current exceeds the setting. If the phase information matches the Num of start phases setting, the phase selection logic activates the timer module.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the user-programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter

B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operate delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse

241

Protection functions

4.1.1.5

1MRS757644 H reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or user programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operate and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operate time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11.2.1 IDMT curves for overcurrent protection

in this manual.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Measurement modes

The function operates on four alternative measurement modes: "RMS", "DFT",

"Peak-to-Peak" and "P-to-P + backup". The measurement mode is selected with the setting Measurement mode.

Timer characteristics

PHxPTOC supports both DT and IDMT characteristics. The user can select the timer characteristics with the Operating curve type and Type of reset curve settings.

When the DT characteristic is selected, it is only affected by the Operate delay time and Reset delay time settings.

The protection relay provides 16 IDMT characteristics curves, of which seven comply with the IEEE C37.112 and six with the IEC 60255-3 standard. Two curves follow the special characteristics of ABB praxis and are referred to as RI and RD. In addition to this, a user programmable curve can be used if none of the standard curves are applicable. The DT characteristics can be chosen by selecting the Operating curve type values "ANSI Def. Time" or "IEC Def. Time". The functionality is identical in both cases.

The timer characteristics supported by different stages comply with the list in the IEC 61850-7-4 specification, indicate the characteristics supported by different stages:

Application

PHxPTOC is used in several applications in the power system. The applications include but are not limited to:

• Selective overcurrent and short-circuit protection of feeders in distribution and subtransmission systems

• Backup overcurrent and short-circuit protection of power transformers and generators

• Overcurrent and short-circuit protection of various devices connected to the power system, for example shunt capacitor banks, shunt reactors and motors

• General backup protection

PHxPTOC is used for single-phase, two-phase and three-phase non-directional overcurrent and short-circuit protection. Typically, overcurrent protection is used for clearing two and three-phase short circuits. Therefore, the user can choose how many phases, at minimum, must have currents above the start level for the function to operate. When the number of start-phase settings is set to "1 out of 3", the operation of PHxPTOC is enabled with the presence of high current in one-phase.

When the setting is "2 out of 3" or "3 out of 3", single-phase faults are not detected. The setting "3 out of 3" requires the fault to be present in all three phases.

Many applications require several steps using different current start levels and time delays. PHxPTOC consists of three protection stages.

• Low PHLPTOC

• High PHHPTOC

• Instantaneous PHIPTOC

PHLPTOC is used for overcurrent protection. The function contains several types of time-delay characteristics. PHHPTOC and PHIPTOC are used for fast clearance of very high overcurrent situations.

Transformer overcurrent protection

The purpose of transformer overcurrent protection is to operate as main protection, when differential protection is not used. It can also be used as coarse back-up protection for differential protection in faults inside the zone of protection, that is, faults occurring in incoming or outgoing feeders, in the region of transformer terminals and tank cover. This means that the magnitude range of the fault current can be very wide. The range varies from 6xI n

to several hundred times I

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions n

, depending on the impedance of the transformer and the source impedance of the feeding network. From this point of view, it is clear that the operation must be both very fast and selective, which is usually achieved by using coarse current settings.

The purpose is also to protect the transformer from short circuits occurring outside the protection zone, that is through-faults. Transformer overcurrent protection also provides protection for the LV-side busbars. In this case the magnitude of the fault current is typically lower than 12xI n

depending on the fault location and transformer impedance. Consequently, the protection must operate as fast as possible taking into account the selectivity requirements, switching-in currents, and the thermal and mechanical withstand of the transformer and outgoing feeders.

Traditionally, overcurrent protection of the transformer has been arranged as shown in

Figure 121

. The low-set stage PHLPTOC operates time-selectively both in transformer and LV-side busbar faults. The high-set stage PHHPTOC operates instantaneously making use of current selectivity only in transformer HV-side faults. If there is a possibility, that the fault current can also be fed from the

LV-side up to the HV-side, the transformer must also be equipped with LV-side overcurrent protection. Inrush current detectors are used in start-up situations to multiply the current start value setting in each particular protection relay where the inrush current can occur. The overcurrent and contact based circuit breaker failure protection CCBRBRF is used to confirm the protection scheme in case of circuit breaker malfunction.

620 series

Technical Manual

Figure 121: Example of traditional time selective transformer overcurrent protection

The operating times of the main and backup overcurrent protection of the above scheme become quite long, this applies especially in the busbar faults and also in the transformer LV-terminal faults. In order to improve the performance of the above scheme, a multiple-stage overcurrent protection with reverse blocking is proposed.

Figure 122 shows this arrangement.

245

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

Transformer and busbar overcurrent protection with reverse blocking principle

By implementing a full set of overcurrent protection stages and blocking channels between the protection stages of the incoming feeders, bus-tie and outgoing feeders, it is possible to speed up the operation of overcurrent protection in the busbar and transformer LV-side faults without impairing the selectivity. Also, the security degree of busbar protection is increased, because there is now a dedicated, selective and fast busbar protection functionality which is based on the blockable overcurrent protection principle. The additional time selective stages on the transformer HV and LV-sides provide increased security degree of backup protection for the transformer, busbar and also for the outgoing feeders.

Depending on the overcurrent stage in question, the selectivity of the scheme in

Figure 122 is based on the operating current, operating time or blockings between

successive overcurrent stages. With blocking channels, the operating time of the protection can be drastically shortened if compared to the simple time selective protection. In addition to the busbar protection, this blocking principle is applicable for the protection of transformer LV terminals and short lines. The functionality and performance of the proposed overcurrent protections can be summarized as seen in the table.

In case the bus-tie breaker is open, the operating time of the blockable overcurrent protection is approximately 100 ms (relaying time). When the bus-tie breaker is closed, that is, the fault current flows to the faulted section of the busbar from two directions, the operation time becomes as follows: first the bus-tie relay unit trips the tie breaker in the above 100 ms, which reduces the fault current to a half. After this the incoming feeder relay unit of the faulted bus section trips the breaker in approximately 250 ms (relaying time), which becomes the total fault clearing time in this case.

Blocking output = digital output signal from the start of a protection stage, Blocking in = digital input signal to block the operation of a protection stage

The operating times of the time selective stages are very short, because the grading margins between successive protection stages can be kept short. This is mainly due to the advanced measuring principle allowing a certain degree of CT saturation, good operating accuracy and short retardation times of the numerical units. So, for example, a grading margin of 150 ms in the DT mode of operation can be used, provided that the circuit breaker interrupting time is shorter than 60 ms.

The sensitivity and speed of the current-selective stages become as good as possible due to the fact that the transient overreach is very low. Also, the effects of switching inrush currents on the setting values can be reduced by using the protection relay's logic, which recognizes the transformer energizing inrush current and blocks the operation or multiplies the current start value setting of the selected overcurrent stage with a predefined multiplier setting.

Finally, a dependable trip of the overcurrent protection is secured by both a proper selection of the settings and an adequate ability of the measuring transformers to reproduce the fault current. This is important in order to maintain selectivity and also for the protection to operate without additional time delays. For additional information about available measuring modes and current transformer requirements, see

Chapter 11.5 Measurement modes

in this manual.

Radial outgoing feeder overcurrent protection

The basic requirements for feeder overcurrent protection are adequate sensitivity and operation speed taking into account the minimum and maximum fault current levels along the protected line, selectivity requirements, inrush currents and the thermal and mechanical withstand of the lines to be protected.

247

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

In many cases the above requirements can be best fulfilled by using multiple-stage

overcurrent units. Figure 123

shows an example of this. A brief coordination study has been carried out between the incoming and outgoing feeders.

The protection scheme is implemented with three-stage numerical overcurrent protection, where the low-set stage PHLPTOC operates in IDMT-mode and the two higher stages PHHPTOC and PHIPTOC in DT-mode. Also the thermal withstand of the line types along the feeder and maximum expected inrush currents of the feeders are shown. Faults occurring near the station where the fault current levels are the highest are cleared rapidly by the instantaneous stage in order to minimize the effects of severe short circuit faults. The influence of the inrush current is taken into consideration by connecting the inrush current detector to the start value multiplying input of the instantaneous stage. In this way the start value is multiplied with a predefined setting during the inrush situation and nuisance tripping can be avoided.

248

Figure 123: Functionality of numerical multiple-stage overcurrent protection

The coordination plan is an effective tool to study the operation of time selective operation characteristics. All the points mentioned earlier, required to define the overcurrent protection parameters, can be expressed simultaneously in a

coordination plan. In Figure 124

, the coordination plan shows an example of operation characteristics in the LV-side incoming feeder and radial outgoing feeder.

The three-independent-phase non-directional overcurrent protection function

PH3xPTOC is used as one-phase, two-phase or three-phase non-directional overcurrent and short circuit protection for feeders.

The function starts when the current exceeds the set limit. Each phase has its own timer. The operating time characteristics for low-stage PH3LPTOC and highstage PH3HPTOC can be selected to be either definite time (DT) or inverse definite minimum time (IDMT). The instantaneous stage PH3IPTOC always operates with the

Protection functions

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

PH3xPTOC is used as single-phase and three-phase non-directional overcurrent and short circuit protection. The phase operation mode is selected with the Operation curve type setting. The operation is further specified with the Num of start phases setting, which sets the number of phases in which the current must exceed the set current start value before the corresponding start and operating signals can be activated.

The operation of PH3xPTOC can be described by using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

When the Number of start phases setting is set to "1 out of 3" and the fault is in one or several phases, the phase selection logic sends an enabling signal to the faulty phase timers. In case the fault disappears, the related timer-enabling signal is removed.

When the setting is "2 out of 3" or "3 out of 3", the single-phase faults are not detected. The setting "3 out of 3" requires the fault to be present in all three phases.

Timer A, Timer B, Timer C

The function design contains three independent phase-segregated timers that are controlled by common settings. This design allows true three-phase overcurrent protection which is useful in some applications.

Common START and OPERATE outputs are created by ORing the phase-specific start and operating outputs.

Each phase has its own phase-specific start and operating outputs: ST_A , ST_B ,

ST_C , OPR_A , OPR_B and OPR_C .

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

259

Protection functions

260

1MRS757644 H

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operating time characteristics are defined with the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

The shortest IDMT operation time is adjustable. It can be set up with the global parameter in the HMI menu: Configuration > System > IDMT

Sat point. More information can be found in

Chapter 11 General function block features

.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operate delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operation and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operation time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11 General function block features in this

manual.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration > System >

Blocking mode, which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the IED program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE , OPR_A , OPR_B and

OPR_C outputs are not activated.

Timer characteristics

PH3xPTOC supports both DT and IDMT characteristics. The timer characteristics can be selected with the Operating curve type and Type of reset curve settings.

When the DT characteristic is selected, it is only affected by the Operate delay time and Reset delay time settings.

The IED provides 16 IDMT characteristics curves, of which seven comply with the

IEEE C37.112 and six with the IEC 60255-3 standard. Two curves follow the special characteristics of ABB praxis and are referred to as RI and RD. In addition, a programmable curve can be used if none of the standard curves are applicable.

The DT characteristic can be chosen by selecting the Operating curve type values

"ANSI Def. Time" or "IEC Def. Time". The functionality is identical in both cases.

The following characteristics, which comply with the list in the IEC 61850-7-4 specification, indicate the characteristics supported by different stages:

Application

PH3xPTOC is used in several applications in the power system. The applications include different protections, for example.

• Selective overcurrent and short-circuit protection of feeders in distribution and subtransmission systems

• Backup overcurrent and short-circuit protection of power transformers and generators

• Overcurrent and short-circuit protection of various devices connected to the power system, for example shunt capacitor banks, shunt reactors and motors

• General backup protection

PH3xPTOC is used for single-phase, two-phase and three-phase non-directional overcurrent and short circuit protection. Typically, overcurrent protection is used for clearing two-phase and three-phase short circuits. Therefore, it can be chosen how many phases, at minimum, must have currents above the start level for the function to operate.

Many applications require several steps using different current start levels and time delays. PH3xPTOC consists of three protection stages:

• Low PH3LPTOC

• High PH3HPTOC

• Instantaneous PH3IPTOC

PH3LPTOC is used for overcurrent protection. The function contains several types of time delay characteristics. PH3HPTOC and PH3IPTOC are used for the fast clearing of very high overcurrent situations.

Transformer overcurrent protection

The purpose of the transformer overcurrent protection is to operate as the main protection when differential protection is not used. It can also be used as a coarse backup protection for differential protection in the faults inside the zone of protection, that is, faults occurring in incoming or outgoing feeders, in the region of transformer terminals and in the tank cover. This means that the magnitude range of the fault current can be very wide. The range varies from 6xIn to several hundred times In, depending on the impedance of the transformer and the source impedance of the feeding network. From this point of view, it is clear that the

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions operation must be both very fast and selective, which is usually achieved by using coarse current settings.

The purpose is also to protect the transformer from short circuits occurring outside the protection zone, that is, from through-faults. Transformer overcurrent protection also provides protection for the LV-side busbars. In this case, the magnitude of the fault current is typically lower than 12xIn, depending on the fault location and transformer impedance. Consequently, the protection must operate as fast as possible, taking into account the selectivity requirements, switchingin currents and the thermal and mechanical withstand of the transformer and outgoing feeders.

Traditionally, overcurrent protection of the transformer has been arranged as shown in

Figure 129

. The low-set stage PH3LPTOC operates time-selectively both in transformer and LV-side busbar faults. The high-set stage PH3HPTOC operates instantaneously, making use of current selectivity only in the transformer HV-side faults. If there is a possibility that the fault current can also be fed from the LVside up to the HV-side, the transformer must also be equipped with an LV-side overcurrent protection. Inrush current detectors are used in startup situations to multiply the current start value setting in each particular IED where the inrush current can occur. The overcurrent- and contact-based circuit breaker failure protection CCBRBRF is used to confirm the protection scheme in case of circuit breaker malfunction.

Figure 129: Example of traditional time selective transformer overcurrent protection

The operating times of the main and backup overcurrent protection of the above scheme become quite long. This applies especially in the busbar faults and also in the transformer LV-terminal faults. To improve the performance of the above scheme, a multiple-stage overcurrent protection with a reverse blocking is proposed.

Figure 130

shows this arrangement.

263

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

Transformer and busbar overcurrent protection with reverse blocking principle

By implementing a full set of overcurrent protection stages and blocking channels between the protection stages of the incoming feeders, bus-tie and outgoing feeders, it is possible to accelerate the operation of the overcurrent protection in the busbar and transformer LV-side faults without impairing the selectivity. Also, the security degree of the busbar protection is increased, because there is now a dedicated, selective and fast busbar protection functionality which is based on the blockable overcurrent protection principle. The additional time-selective stages on the transformer HV- and LV-sides provide increased security degree of backup protection for the transformer, busbar and also for the outgoing feeders.

Depending on the overcurrent stage in question, the selectivity of the scheme in

Figure 130

is based on the operating current, operating time or blockings between successive overcurrent stages. With blocking channels, the operating time of the protection can be drastically shortened if compared to the simple time-selective protection. In addition to the busbar protection, this blocking principle is applicable for the protection of transformer LV-terminals and short lines. The functionality and performance of the proposed overcurrent protections can be summarized.

If the bus-tie breaker is open, the operating time of the blockable overcurrent protection is approximately 100 ms (relaying time). When the bus-tie breaker is closed, that is, the fault current flows to the faulted section of the busbar from two directions, the operation time becomes as follows: first the bus-tie relay unit trips the tie breaker in the above 100 ms, which reduces the fault current to a half. After this the incoming feeder relay unit of the faulted bus section trips the breaker in approximately 250 ms (relaying time), which becomes the total fault-clearing time in this case.

Blocking output = digital output signal from the start of a protection stage, Blocking in = digital input signal to block the operation of a protection stage

The operating times of the time-selective stages are very short, because the grading margins between successive protection stages can be kept short. This is mainly due to the advanced measuring principle allowing a certain degree of CT saturation, good operating accuracy and short retardation times of the numerical units. So, for example, a grading margin of 150 ms in the DT mode of operation can be used, provided that the circuit breaker interrupting time is shorter than 60 ms.

The sensitivity and speed of the current-selective stages become as good as possible due to the fact that the transient overreach is very low. Also, the effects of switching inrush currents on the setting values can be reduced using the IED logic which recognizes the transformer-energizing inrush current and blocks the operation or multiplies the current start value setting of the selected overcurrent stage with a predefined multiplier setting.

Finally, a dependable trip of the overcurrent protection is secured by both a proper selection of the settings and an adequate ability of the measuring transformers to reproduce the fault current. This is important in maintaining selectivity and also for the protection to operate without additional time delays. For additional information about available measuring modes and current transformer requirements, see

Chapter 11.5 Measurement modes

in this manual.

Radial outgoing feeder overcurrent protection

The basic requirements for feeder overcurrent protection are adequate sensitivity and operation speed taking into account the minimum and maximum fault current

265

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H levels along the protected line, selectivity requirements, inrush currents and the thermal and mechanical withstand of the lines to be protected.

Often the above requirements can be best fulfilled using multiple-stage overcurrent units.

Figure 131 shows an example of this. A brief coordination study has been

carried out between the incoming and outgoing feeders.

The protection scheme is implemented with three-stage numerical overcurrent protection where the low-set stage PH3LPTOC operates in the IDMT-mode and the two higher stages, PH3HPTOC and PH3IPTOC, in the DT-mode. Also the thermal withstand of the line types along the feeder and the maximum expected inrush currents of the feeders are shown. Faults occurring near the station where the fault current levels are the highest are cleared rapidly by the instantaneous stage to minimize the effects of severe short circuit faults. The influence of the inrush current is taken into consideration by connecting the inrush current detector to the start value-multiplying input of the instantaneous stage. This way, the start value is multiplied with a predefined setting during the inrush situation, and nuisance tripping can be avoided.

Functionality

The three-phase directional overcurrent protection function DPHxPDOC is used as one-phase, two-phase or three-phase directional overcurrent and short-circuit protection for feeders.

DPHxPDOC starts up when the value of the current exceeds the set limit and directional criterion is fulfilled. The operate time characteristics for low stage

DPHLPDOC and high stage DPHHPDOC can be selected to be either definite time

(DT) or inverse definite minimum time (IDMT).

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of DPHxPDOC can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Directional calculation

The directional calculation compares the current phasors to the polarizing phasor.

A suitable polarization quantity can be selected from the different polarization quantities, which are the positive sequence voltage, negative sequence voltage, self-polarizing (faulted) voltage and cross-polarizing voltages (healthy voltages).

The polarizing method is defined with the Pol quantity setting.

The directional operation can be selected with the Directional mode setting.

The user can select either "Non-directional", "Forward" or "Reverse" operation. By setting the value of Allow Non Dir to "True", the non-directional operation is allowed when the directional information is invalid.

The Characteristic angle setting is used to turn the directional characteristic. The value of Characteristic angle should be chosen in such a way that all the faults in the operating direction are seen in the operating zone and all the faults in the

275

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H opposite direction are seen in the non-operating zone. The value of Characteristic angle depends on the network configuration.

Reliable operation requires both the operating and polarizing quantities to exceed certain minimum amplitude levels. The minimum amplitude level for the operating quantity (current) is set with the Min operate current setting. The minimum amplitude level for the polarizing quantity (voltage) is set with the Min operate voltage setting. If the amplitude level of the operating quantity or polarizing quantity is below the set level, the direction information of the corresponding phase is set to "Unknown".

The polarizing quantity validity can remain valid even if the amplitude of the polarizing quantity falls below the value of the Min operate voltage setting. In this case, the directional information is provided by a special memory function for a time defined with the Voltage Mem time setting.

DPHxPDOC is provided with a memory function to secure a reliable and correct directional protection relay operation in case of a close short circuit or an earth fault characterized by an extremely low voltage. At sudden loss of the polarization quantity, the angle difference is calculated on the basis of a fictive voltage. The fictive voltage is calculated using the positive phase sequence voltage measured before the fault occurred, assuming that the voltage is not affected by the fault.

The memory function enables the function to operate up to a maximum of three seconds after a total loss of voltage. This time can be set with the Voltage Mem time setting. The voltage memory cannot be used for the "Negative sequence voltage" polarization because it is not possible to substitute the positive sequence voltage for negative sequence voltage without knowing the network unsymmetry level. This is the reason why the fictive voltage angle and corresponding direction information are frozen immediately for this polarization mode when the need for a voltage memory arises and these are kept frozen until the time set with Voltage

Mem time elapses.

The value for the Min operate voltage setting should be carefully selected since the accuracy in low signal levels is strongly affected by the measuring device accuracy.

When the voltage falls below Min operate voltage at a close fault, the fictive voltage is used to determine the phase angle. The measured voltage is applied again as soon as the voltage rises above Min operate voltage and hysteresis. The fictive voltage is also discarded if the measured voltage stays below Min operate voltage and hysteresis for longer than Voltage Mem time or if the fault current disappears while the fictive voltage is in use. When the voltage is below Min operate voltage and hysteresis and the fictive voltage is unusable, the fault direction cannot be determined. The fictive voltage can be unusable for two reasons:

• The fictive voltage is discarded after Voltage Mem time

• The phase angle cannot be reliably measured before the fault situation.

DPHxPDOC can be forced to the non-directional operation with the NON_DIR input. When the NON_DIR input is active, DPHxPDOC operates as a non-directional overcurrent protection, regardless of the Directional mode setting.

Figure 135: Operating zones at minimum magnitude levels

Level detector

The measured phase currents are compared phasewise to the set Start value. If the measured value exceeds the set Start value, the level detector reports the exceeding of the value to the phase selection logic. If the ENA_MULT input is active, the Start value setting is multiplied by the Start value Mult setting.

The protection relay does not accept the Start value or Start value Mult setting if the product of these settings exceeds the Start value setting range.

The start value multiplication is normally done when the inrush detection function

(INRPHAR) is connected to the ENA_MULT input.

Phase selection logic

If the fault criteria are fulfilled in the level detector and the directional calculation, the phase selection logic detects the phase or phases in which the measured current exceeds the setting. If the phase information matches the Num of start phases setting, the phase selection logic activates the timer module.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the user-programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter

B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operate delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse

Protection functions reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or user programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operate and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operate time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11.2.1 IDMT curves for overcurrent protection

in this manual.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Measurement modes

The function operates on three alternative measurement modes: “RMS”, “DFT” and

“Peak-to-Peak” . The measurement mode is selected with the Measurement mode setting.

Directional overcurrent characteristics

The forward and reverse sectors are defined separately. The forward operation area is limited with the Min forward angle and Max forward angle settings. The reverse operation area is limited with the Min reverse angle and Max reverse angle settings.

The sector limits are always given as positive degree values.

In the forward operation area, the Max forward angle setting gives the counterclockwise sector and the Min forward angle setting gives the corresponding clockwise sector, measured from the Characteristic angle setting.

In the backward operation area, the Max reverse angle setting gives the counterclockwise sector and the Min reverse angle setting gives the corresponding clockwise sector, a measurement from the Characteristic angle setting that has been rotated 180 degrees.

Relay characteristic angle (RCA) is set positive if the operating current lags the polarizing quantity and negative if the operating current leads the polarizing quantity.

Network rotation direction

Typically, the network rotating direction is counter-clockwise and defined as "ABC".

If the network rotating direction is reversed, meaning clockwise, that is, "ACB", the equations for calculating the angle difference needs to be changed. The network rotating direction is defined with a system parameter Phase rotation.

The change in the network rotating direction affects the phase-to-phase voltages polarization method where the calculated angle difference needs to be rotated 180 degrees. Also, when the sequence components are used, which are, the positive sequence voltage or negative sequence voltage components, the calculation of the components are affected but the angle difference calculation remains the same.

When the phase-to-ground voltages are used as the polarizing method, the network rotating direction change has no effect on the direction calculation.

The network rotating direction is set in the protection relay using the parameter in the HMI menu Configuration > System > Phase rotation.

The default parameter value is "ABC".

Application

DPHxPDOC is used as short-circuit protection in three-phase distribution or sub transmission networks operating at 50 or 60 Hz.

In radial networks, phase overcurrent protection relays are often sufficient for the short circuit protection of lines, transformers and other equipment. The current-time characteristic should be chosen according to the common practice in the network. It is recommended to use the same current-time characteristic for all overcurrent protection relays in the network. This includes the overcurrent protection of transformers and other equipment.

The phase overcurrent protection can also be used in closed ring systems as short circuit protection. Because the setting of a phase overcurrent protection system in closed ring networks can be complicated, a large number of fault current calculations are needed. There are situations with no possibility to have the selectivity with a protection system based on overcurrent protection relays in a closed ring system.

In some applications, the possibility of obtaining the selectivity can be improved significantly if DPHxPDOC is used. This can also be done in the closed ring networks and radial networks with the generation connected to the remote in the system thus giving fault current infeed in reverse direction. Directional overcurrent protection relays are also used to have a selective protection scheme, for example in case of parallel distribution lines or power transformers fed by the same single source. In ring connected supply feeders between substations or feeders with two feeding sources, DPHxPDOC is also used.

Parallel lines or transformers

When the lines are connected in parallel and if a fault occurs in one of the lines, it is practical to have DPHxPDOC to detect the direction of the fault. Otherwise, there is a risk that the fault situation in one part of the feeding system can de-energize the whole system connected to the LV side.

287

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

Figure 145: Overcurrent protection of parallel lines using directional protection relays

DPHxPDOC can be used for parallel operating transformer applications. In these applications, there is a possibility that the fault current can also be fed from the LVside up to the HV-side. Therefore, the transformer is also equipped with directional overcurrent protection.

288

Figure 146: Overcurrent protection of parallel operating transformers

Closed ring network topology

The closed ring network topology is used in applications where electricity distribution for the consumers is secured during network fault situations. The power is fed at least from two directions which means that the current direction can be varied. The time grading between the network level stages is challenging without unnecessary delays in the time settings. In this case, it is practical to use the directional overcurrent protection relays to achieve a selective protection scheme. Directional overcurrent functions can be used in closed ring applications.

The arrows define the operating direction of the directional functionality. The double arrows define the non-directional functionality where faults can be detected in both directions.

Functionality

Directional three-independent-phase directional overcurrent protection function

DPH3xPDOC is used as one-phase, two-phase or three-phase directional overcurrent and short circuit protection for feeders.

DPH3xPDOC starts when the value of the current exceeds the set limit and directional criterion is fulfilled. Each phase has its own timer. The operation time characteristics for the low stage, DPH3LPDOC, and the high stage, DPH3HPDOC, can be selected to be either definite time (DT) or inverse definite minimum time

(IDMT).

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operation time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of DPH3xPDOC can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Directional calculation

The directional calculation compares the current phasors to the polarizing phasor.

A suitable polarization quantity can be selected from the different polarization quantities, which are the positive-sequence voltage, negative-sequence voltage, self-polarizing (faulted) voltage and cross-polarizing voltages (healthy voltages).

The polarizing method is defined with the Pol quantity setting.

The directional operation can be selected with the Directional mode setting.

The user can select either "Non-directional", "Forward" or "Reverse" operation. By setting the value of Allow Non Dir to "True", the non-directional operation is allowed when the directional information is invalid.

The Characteristic angle setting is used to turn the directional characteristic. The value of Characteristic angle should be chosen in such a way that all the faults in the operating direction are seen in the operating zone and all the faults in the

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions opposite direction are seen in the non-operating zone. The value of Characteristic angle depends on the network configuration.

Reliable operation requires both the operating and polarizing quantities to exceed certain minimum amplitude levels. The minimum amplitude level for the operating quantity (current) is set with the Min operate current setting. The minimum amplitude level for the polarizing quantity (voltage) is set with the Min operate voltage setting. If the amplitude level of the operating quantity or polarizing quantity is below the set level, the direction information of the corresponding phase is set to "Unknown".

The polarizing quantity validity can remain valid even if the amplitude of the polarizing quantity falls below the value of the Min operate voltage setting. In this case, the directional information is provided by a special memory function for a time defined with the Voltage Mem time setting.

DPH3xPDOC is provided with a memory function to secure a reliable and correct directional IED operation in case of a close short circuit or an earth fault characterized by an extremely low voltage. At the sudden loss of the polarization quantity, the angle difference is calculated on the basis of a fictive voltage. The fictive voltage is calculated using the positive-phase sequence voltage measured before the fault occurred, assuming that the voltage is not affected by the fault.

The memory function enables the function to operate up to a maximum of three seconds after a total loss of voltage. This time can be set with the Voltage

Mem time setting. The voltage memory cannot be used for the negative-sequence voltage polarization because it is not possible to substitute the positive-sequence voltage for negative-sequence voltage without knowing the network asymmetry level. This is the reason why the fictive voltage angle and corresponding direction information are frozen immediately for this polarization mode when the need for a voltage memory arises, and these are kept frozen until the time set with Voltage

Mem time elapses.

The value for the Min operate voltage setting should be carefully selected since the accuracy in low signal levels is strongly affected by the measuring device accuracy.

When the voltage falls below Min operate voltage at a close fault, the fictive voltage is used to determine the phase angle. The measured voltage is applied again as soon as the voltage rises above Min operate voltage and hysteresis. The fictive voltage is discarded if the fault current disappears while the fictive voltage is in use. When the voltage is below Min operate voltage and hysteresis and the fictive voltage is unusable, the fault direction cannot be determined.. The fictive voltage can be unusable for two reasons:

• The fictive voltage is discarded if the fault current disappears while the fictive voltage is in use

• The phase angle cannot be reliably measured before the fault situation.

DPH3xPDOC can be forced to non-directional operation with the NON_DIR input.

When the NON_DIR input is active, DPH3xPDOC operates as a non-directional overcurrent protection regardless of the Directional mode setting.

Figure 150: Operating zones at minimum magnitude levels

Level detector

The measured phase currents are compared phasewise to the set Start value. If the measured value exceeds the set Start value,the level detector reports the exceeding of the value, together with the directional results of that phase, to the phase selection logic. If the ENA_MULT input is active, the Start value setting is multiplied by the Start value Mult setting.

The IED does not accept the Start value or Start value Mult setting if the product of these settings exceeds the Start value setting range.

The start value multiplication is normally done when the inrush detection function

(INRPHAR) is connected to the ENA_MULT input.

Figure 152: Logic diagram for phase selection module

When the Number of start phase setting is set to "1 out of 3" and the fault is in one or several phases, the phase selection logic sends an enabling signal to the faulty phase timers. If the fault disappears, the related timer-enabling signal is removed.

When the Number of start phase setting is "2 out of 3" or "3 out of 3", single-phase faults are not detected. The value "3 out of 3" requires the fault to be present in all three phases.

Timer A, Timer B, Timer C

The function design contains three independent phase-segregated timers which are controlled by common settings. This design allows a true three-phase overcurrent protection which is useful in some applications.

The common START and OPERATE outputs are created by "ORing" the phasespecific starting and operating outputs.

Each phase has its own phase-specific starting and operating outputs: ST_A , ST_B ,

ST_C , OPR_A , OPR_B and OPR_C .

1MRS757644 H Protection functions

Technical Manual

Once activated, each timer activates its START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

The shortest IDMT operation time is adjustable. The setup can be done with a global parameter in the HMI menu: Configuration > System >

IDMT Sat point. More information can be found in Chapter 11 General function block features in this manual.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operation delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. If the drop-off situation continues, the reset timer is reset and the START output is deactivated.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or programmable IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The Time multiplier setting is used for scaling the IDMT operating and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operating time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11 General function block features in this

manual.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration > System >

Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the IED program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE

305

1MRS757644 H output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE , OPR_A , OPR_B and

OPR_C outputs are not activated.

Timer characteristics

DPH3xPDOC supports both DT and IDMT characteristics. The timer characteristics can be selected with the Operating curve type and Type of reset curve settings.

When the DT characteristic is selected, it is only affected by the Operate delay time and Reset delay time settings.

The IED provides 16 IDMT characteristics curves, of which seven comply with the

IEEE C37.112 and six with the IEC 60255-3 standard. Two curves follow the special characteristics of the ABB praxis and are referred to as RI and RD. In addition to this, a programmable curve can be used if none of the standard curves are applicable. The DT characteristic can be chosen by selecting the Operating curve type values "ANSI Def. Time" or "IEC Def. Time". The functionality is identical in both cases.

The list of characteristics, which matches the list in the IEC 61850-7-4 specification, indicates the characteristics supported by different stages.

Directional overcurrent characteristics

The forward and reverse sectors are defined separately. The forward operation area is limited with the Min forward angle and Max forward angle settings. The reverse operation area is limited with the Min reverse angle and Max reverse angle settings.

The sector limits are always given as positive degree values.

In the forward operation area, the Max forward angle setting gives the counterclockwise sector and the Min forward angle setting gives the corresponding clockwise sector, measured from the Characteristic angle setting.

In the backward operation area, the Max reverse angle setting gives the counterclockwise sector and the Min reverse angle setting gives the corresponding clockwise sector, a measurement from the Characteristic angle setting that has been rotated 180 degrees.

Relay characteristic angle (RCA) is set positive if the operating current lags the polarizing quantity and negative if the operating current leads the polarizing quantity.

The equations are valid when network rotating direction is counterclockwise, that is, ABC. If the network rotating direction is reversed,

180 degrees is added to the calculated angle difference. This is done automatically with a system parameter Phase rotation.

Negative sequence voltage as polarizing quantity

When the negative voltage is used as the polarizing quantity, the angle difference between the operating and polarizing quantity is calculated with the same formula for all fault types:

Network rotation direction

Typically, the network rotatiion direction is counterclockwise and defined as "ABC".

If the network rotation direction is reversed, meaning clockwise, that is, "ACB", the equations for calculating the angle difference need to be changed. The network rotation direction is defined with a system parameter Phase rotation. The change in the network rotation direction affects the polarization method of the phase-tophase voltages where the calculated angle difference needs to be rotated 180 degrees. Also, when the sequence components are used, the calculation of the components is affected but the angle difference calculation remains the same.

The sequence components are the positive-sequence voltage or negative-sequence voltage components. When the phase-to-ground voltages are used as the polarizing method, the network rotation direction change has no effect on the direction calculation.

The network rotation direction is set in the IED using the parameter in the HMI menu Configuration > System > Phase rotation. The default parameter value is "ABC".

Application

DPH3xPDOC is used as short circuit protection in three-phase distribution or sub transmission networks operating at 50 Hz.

In radial networks, phase overcurrent IEDs are often sufficient for the short circuit protection of lines, transformers and other equipment. The current-time characteristic should be chosen according to the common practice in the network.

It is recommended to use the same current-time characteristic for all overcurrent

IEDs in the network. This includes the overcurrent protection of transformers and other equipment.

The phase overcurrent protection can also be used in closed ring systems as short circuit protection. Because the setting of a phase overcurrent protection system in closed ring networks can be complicated, a large number of fault current calculations are needed. There are situations with no possibility to have the selectivity with a protection system based on overcurrent IEDs in a closed ring system.

In some applications, the possibility of obtaining the selectivity can be improved significantly if DPH3xPDOC is used. This can also be done in the closed ring networks and radial networks with the generation connected to the remote in the system, thus giving fault current infeed in the reverse direction. Directional overcurrent IEDs are also used to have a selective protection scheme, for example in case of parallel distribution lines or power transformers fed by the same single source. DPH3xPDOC is also used in the ring-connected supply feeders between substations or feeders with two feeding sources.

Parallel lines or transformers

When the lines are connected in parallel and a fault occurs in one of the lines, it is practical to have DPH3xPDOC to detect the direction of the fault. Otherwise, there is a risk that the fault situation in one part of the feeding system can de-energize the whole system connected to the LV-side.

315

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

Figure 161: Overcurrent protection of parallel lines using directional protection relays

DPH3xPDOC can be used for parallel operating transformer applications. In these applications, there is a possibility that the fault current can also be fed from the LVside up to the HV-side. Therefore, the transformer is also equipped with directional overcurrent protection.

316

Figure 162: Overcurrent protection of parallel operating transformers

Closed ring network topology

The closed-ring network topology is used in applications where electricity distribution for the consumers is secured during network fault situations. The power is fed from at least two directions, which means that the current direction can be varied. The time-grading between the network level stages is challenging without unnecessary delays in the time settings. In this case, it is practical to use the directional overcurrent IEDs to achieve a selective protection scheme.

Directional overcurrent functions can be used in closed-ring applications. The arrows define the operating direction of the directional functionality. The double arrows define the nondirectional functionality where faults can be detected in both directions.

The three-phase voltage-dependent overcurrent protection function PHPVOC is used for single-phase, two-phase or three-phase voltage-dependent time overcurrent protection of generators against overcurrent and short circuit conditions.

PHPVOC starts when the input phase current exceeds a limit which is dynamically calculated based on the measured terminal voltages. The operating characteristics can be selected to be either inverse definite minimum time IDMT or definite time

DT.

PHPVOC contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of PHPVOC can be described by using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Effective start value calculator

The normal starting current above which the overcurrent protection starts is set through the Start value setting. The Effective start value of the current may need to be changed during certain conditions like magnetizing inrush or when the terminal voltages drop due to a fault. Hence, the effective start value calculator module dynamically calculates the effective start value above which the overcurrent protection starts.

Four methods of calculating the effective start value are provided in PHPVOC. These can be chosen with the Control mode setting to be either "Voltage control", "Input control", "Volt & Input Ctrl" or "No Volt dependency".

The calculated effective start value per phase, EFF_ST_VAL_A , EFF_ST_VAL_B ,

EFF_ST_VAL_C , is available in the Monitored data view and is used by the Level detector module.

All three phase-to-phase voltages should be available for the function to operate properly.

Voltage control mode

In the Voltage control mode, the Effective start value is calculated based on the magnitude of input voltages U_AB , U_BC and U_CA . The voltage dependency is phase sensitive, which means that the magnitude of one input voltage controls the start value of only the corresponding phase, that is, the magnitude of voltage inputs U_AB , U_BC and U_CA independently control the current start values of phases A, B and C.

Two voltage control characteristics, voltage step and voltage slope, can be achieved with the Voltage high limit and Voltage low limit settings.

The voltage step characteristic is achieved when the Voltage high limit setting is equal to the Voltage low limit setting. The effective start value is calculated based on the equations.

Figure 167: Effective start value or voltage slope characteristic

To achieve the voltage slope characteristics, Voltage high limit must always be set to a value greater than Voltage low limit.

If Voltage high limit is lower than Voltage low limit, the voltage step characteristic is active with Voltage low limit being the cutoff value.

The value of the setting Start value should always be greater than the setting Start value low. Otherwise, Start value low is used as the effective start value.

External input control mode

The External input control mode is used to enable voltage control from an external application. If Control mode is set to the "Input Control" mode, the effective start value for all phases is influenced by the status of the binary input ENA_U_MULT .

Voltage and input control mode

If Control mode is set to "Voltage and input Ctrl", both the "Voltage control" and "Input control" modes are used. However, the “Input control” functionality is dominant over the “Voltage control” mode when ENA_U_MULT is active.

No voltage dependency mode

When Control mode is set to "No Volt dependency", the effective start value has no voltage dependency and the function acts as a normal time overcurrent function with effective start value being equal to the Start value setting.

Level detector

The measured phase currents are compared phasewise to the calculated effective start value. If the measured value exceeds the calculated effective start value, the

Level detector reports the exceeding value to the phase selection logic. If the

ENA_MULT input is active, the effective start value is multiplied by the Start value

Mult setting.

Do not set the multiplier Start value Mult setting higher than necessary.

If the value is too high, the function may not operate at all during an inrush followed by a fault, no matter how severe the fault is.

The start value multiplication is normally done when the inrush detection function

INRPHAR is connected to the ENA_MULT input.

Phase selection logic

If the fault criteria are fulfilled in the level detector, the phase selection logic detects the phase or phases in which the measured current exceeds the setting. If the phase information matches the Num of start phases setting, the phase selection logic activates the Timer module.

Timer

Once activated, the Timer module activates the START output.

Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the user programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the settings Curve parameter A, Curve parameter B,

Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

In a drop-off situation, that is, when a fault suddenly disappears before the operating delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the Timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

331

Protection functions

4.1.5.5

332

1MRS757644 H

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or user programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT trip and reset times.

The Minimum operate time setting defines the minimum desired operating time for

IDMT operation. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

Though the Time multiplier and Minimum operate time settings are common for different IDMT curves, the operating time essentially depends upon the type of IDMT curve chosen.

The Timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. This output is available in the Monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting Configuration > System >

Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Application

The three-phase voltage-dependent overcurrent protection is used as a backup protection for the generators and system from damage due to the phase faults which are not cleared by primary protection and associated breakers.

In case of a short circuit, the sustained fault current of the generator, determined by the machine synchronous reactance, could be below the full-load current. If the generator excitation power is fed from the generator terminals, a voltage drop caused by a short circuit also leads to low fault current. The primary protection, like normal overcurrent protection, might not detect this kind of fault situation. In some cases, the automatic voltage regulator AVR can help to maintain high fault currents by controlling the generator excitation system. If the AVR is out of service or if there is an internal fault in the operation of AVR, the low fault currents can go unnoticed and therefore a voltage-depended overcurrent protection should be used for backup.

Two voltage control characteristics, voltage step and voltage slope, are available in PHPVOC. The choice is made based on the system conditions and the level of protection to be provided.

Voltage step characteristic is applied to generators used in industrial systems.

Under close-up fault conditions when the generator terminal voltages drop below the settable threshold value, a new start value of the current, well below the normal load current, is selected. The control voltage setting should ensure that PHPVOC does not trip under the highest loading conditions to which the system can be

Technical Manual

4.1.5.6

Protection functions subjected. Choosing too high a value for the control voltage may allow an undesired operation of the function during wide-area disturbances. When the terminal voltage of the generator is above the control voltage value, the normal start value is used.

This ensures that PHPVOC does not operate during normal overloads when the generator terminal voltages are maintained near the normal levels.

Voltage slope characteristic is often used as an alternative to impedance protection on small to medium (5...150 MVA) size generators to provide backup to the differential protection. Other applications of the voltage slope characteristic protection exist in networks to provide better coordination and fault detection than plain overcurrent protection. The voltage slope method provides an improved sensitivity of overcurrent operation by making the overcurrent start value proportional to the terminal voltage. The current start value varies correspondingly with the generator terminal voltages between the set voltage high limit and voltage low limit, ensuring the operation of PHPVOC despite the drop in fault current value.

The operation of PHPVOC should be time-graded with respect to the main protection scheme to ensure that PHPVOC does not operate before the main protection.

Functionality

The increased utilization of power systems closer to the thermal limits has generated a need for a thermal overload function for power lines as well.

A thermal overload is in some cases not detected by other protection functions, and the introduction of the three-phase thermal protection for feeders, cables and distribution transformers function T1PTTR allows the protected circuit to operate closer to the thermal limits.

An alarm level gives an early warning to allow operators to take action before the line trips. The early warning is based on the three-phase current measuring function using a thermal model with first order thermal loss with the settable time constant.

If the temperature rise continues the function operates based on the thermal model of the line.

Re-energizing of the line after the thermal overload operation can be inhibited during the time the cooling of the line is in progress. The cooling of the line is estimated by the thermal model.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of T1PTTR can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

The function uses ambient temperature which can be measured locally or remotely.

Local measurement is done by the protection relay. Remote measurement uses analog GOOSE to connect AMB_TEMP input.

If the quality of remotely measured temperature is invalid or communication channel fails the function uses ambient temperature set in Env temperature Set.

The ambient temperature is added to the calculated final temperature rise estimation, and the ambient temperature value used in the calculation is also available in the monitored data as TEMP_AMB in degrees. If the final temperature estimation is larger than the set Maximum temperature, the

START output is activated.

Current reference and Temperature rise setting values are used in the final temperature estimation together with the ambient temperature. It is suggested to set these values to the maximum steady state current allowed for the line or cable under emergency operation for a few hours per years. Current values with the corresponding conductor temperatures are given in cable manuals. These values are given for conditions such as ground temperatures, ambient air temperature, the way of cable laying and ground thermal resistivity.

The actual temperature of the protected component (line or cable) is calculated by adding the ambient temperature to the calculated temperature, as shown above.

The ambient temperature can be given a constant value or it can be measured. The calculated component temperature can be monitored as it is exported from the function as a real figure.

When the component temperature reaches the set alarm level Alarm value, the output signal ALARM is set. When the component temperature reaches the set trip level Maximum temperature, the

OPERATE output is activated. The OPERATE signal pulse length is fixed to 100 ms.

There is also a calculation of the present time to operation with the present current.

This calculation is only performed if the final temperature is calculated to be above the operation temperature: t operate

Caused by the thermal overload protection function, there can be a lockout to reconnect the tripped circuit after operating. The lockout output BLK_CLOSE is activated at the same time when the OPERATE output is activated and is not reset until the device temperature has cooled down below the set value of the Reclose temperature setting. The Maximum temperature value must be set at least two degrees above the set value of Reclose temperature.

The time to lockout release is calculated, that is, the calculation of the cooling time to a set value. The calculated temperature can be reset to its initial value (the Initial temperature setting) via a control parameter that is located under the clear menu.

This is useful during testing when secondary injected current has given a calculated false temperature level.

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

In some applications, the measured current can involve a number of parallel lines.

This is often used for cable lines where one bay connects several parallel cables.

By setting the Current multiplier parameter to the number of parallel lines (cables), the actual current on one line is used in the protection algorithm. To activate this option, the ENA_MULT input must be activated.

The ambient temperature can be measured with the RTD measurement. The measured temperature value is then connected, for example, from the AI_VAL3 output of the X130 (RTD) function to the AMB_TEMP input of T1PTTR.

The Env temperature Set setting is used to define the ambient temperature if the ambient temperature measurement value is not connected to the AMB_TEMP input. The Env temperature Set setting is also used when the ambient temperature measurement connected to T1PTTR is set to “Not in use” in the X130 (RTD) function.

The temperature calculation is initiated from the value defined with the Initial temperature setting parameter. This is done in case the protection relay is powered up, the function is turned "Off" and back "On" or reset through the Clear menu.

The temperature is also stored in the nonvolatile memory and restored in case the protection relay is restarted.

The thermal time constant of the protected circuit is given in seconds with the Time constant setting. Please see cable manufacturers manuals for further details.

T1PTTR thermal model complies with the IEC 60255-149 standard.

4.1.6.5

Application

The lines and cables in the power system are constructed for a certain maximum load current level. If the current exceeds this level, the losses will be higher than expected. As a consequence, the temperature of the conductors will increase. If the temperature of the lines and cables reaches too high values, it can cause a risk of damages by, for example, the following ways:

• The sag of overhead lines can reach an unacceptable value.

• If the temperature of conductors, for example aluminium conductors, becomes too high, the material will be destroyed.

• Overheating can damage the insulation on cables which in turn increases the risk of phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth faults.

In stressed situations in the power system, the lines and cables may be required to be overloaded for a limited time. This should be done without any risk for the above-mentioned risks.

The thermal overload protection provides information that makes temporary overloading of cables and lines possible. The thermal overload protection estimates the conductor temperature continuously. This estimation is made by using a thermal model of the line/cable that is based on the current measurement.

If the temperature of the protected object reaches a set warning level, a signal is given to the operator. This enables actions in the power system to be done before dangerous temperatures are reached. If the temperature continues to increase to the maximum allowed temperature value, the protection initiates a trip of the protected line.

Functionality

The three-phase thermal overload, two time constants, protection function T2PTTR protects the transformer mainly from short-time overloads. The transformer is protected from long-time overloads with the oil temperature detector included in its equipment.

The alarm signal gives an early warning to allow the operators to take action before the transformer trips. The early warning is based on the three-phase current measuring function using a thermal model with two settable time constants. If the temperature rise continues, T2PTTR operates based on the thermal model of the transformer.

After a thermal overload operation, the re-energizing of the transformer is inhibited during the transformer cooling time. The transformer cooling is estimated with a thermal model.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of T2PTTR can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

The function uses ambient temperature which can be measured locally or remotely.

Local measurement is done by the protection relay. Remote measurement uses analog GOOSE to connect AMB_TEMP input.

If the quality of remotely measured temperature is invalid or communication channel fails the function uses ambient temperature set in Env temperature Set.

The ambient temperature value is added to the calculated final temperature rise estimation. If the total value of temperature is higher than the set operate temperature level, the START output is activated.

The Current reference setting is a steady-state current that gives the steady-state end temperature value Temperature rise. It gives a setting value corresponding to the rated power of the transformer.

The Temperature rise setting is used when the value of the reference temperature rise corresponds to the Current reference value. The temperature values with the corresponding transformer load currents are usually given by transformer manufacturers.

The Long time constant setting describes the warming of the transformer with respect to the oil.

The ambient temperature can be measured with RTD measurement. The measured temperature value is connected, for example, from the AI_VAL3 output of the X130

(RTD) function to the AMB_TEMP input of T2PTTR.

The Env temperature Set setting is used to define the ambient temperature if the ambient temperature measurement value is not connected to the AMB_TEMP

Technical Manual input. The Env temperature Set setting is also used when the ambient temperature measurement connected to T2PTTR is set to “Not in use” in the X130 (RTD) function.

The temperature calculation is initiated from the value defined with the Initial temperature and Max temperature setting parameters. The initial value is a percentage of Max temperature defined by Initial temperature. This is done when the protection relay is powered up or the function is turned off and back on or reset through the Clear menu. The temperature is stored in a nonvolatile memory and restored if the protection relay is restarted.

The Max temperature setting defines the maximum temperature of the transformer in degrees Celsius (°C). The value of the Max temperature setting is usually given by transformer manufacturers. The actual alarm, operating and lockout temperatures for T2PTTR are given as a percentage value of the Max temperature setting.

When the transformer temperature reaches the alarm level defined with the

Alarm temperature setting, the

ALARM output signal is set. When the transformer temperature reaches the trip level value defined with the Operate temperature setting, the OPERATE output is activated. The OPERATE output is deactivated when the value of the measured current falls below 10 percent of the Current Reference value or the calculated temperature value falls below Operate temperature.

There is also a calculation of the present time to operation with the present current.

T_OPERATE is only calculated if the final temperature is calculated to be above the operation temperature. The value is available in the monitored data view.

After operating, there can be a lockout to reconnect the tripped circuit due to the thermal overload protection function. The BLK_CLOSE lockout output is activated when the device temperature is above the Reclose temperature lockout release temperature setting value. The time to lockout release T_ENA_CLOSE is also calculated. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Application

The transformers in a power system are constructed for a certain maximum load current level. If the current exceeds this level, the losses are higher than expected.

This results in a rise in transformer temperature. If the temperature rise is too high, the equipment is damaged:

• Insulation within the transformer ages faster, which in turn increases the risk of internal phase-to-phase or phase-to-earth faults.

• Possible hotspots forming within the transformer degrade the quality of the transformer oil.

During stressed situations in power systems, it is required to overload the transformers for a limited time without any risks. The thermal overload protection provides information and makes temporary overloading of transformers possible.

The permissible load level of a power transformer is highly dependent on the transformer cooling system. The two main principles are:

• ONAN: The air is naturally circulated to the coolers without fans, and the oil is naturally circulated without pumps.

• OFAF: The coolers have fans to force air for cooling, and pumps to force the circulation of the transformer oil.

The protection has several parameter sets located in the setting groups, for example one for a non-forced cooling and one for a forced cooling situation. Both the permissive steady-state loading level as well as the thermal time constant are

347

Protection functions

348

1MRS757644 H influenced by the transformer cooling system. The active setting group can be changed by a parameter, or through a binary input if the binary input is enabled for it. This feature can be used for transformers where forced cooling is taken out of operation or extra cooling is switched on. The parameters can also be changed when a fan or pump fails to operate.

The thermal overload protection continuously estimates the internal heat content, that is, the temperature of the transformer. This estimation is made by using a thermal model of the transformer which is based on the current measurement.

If the heat content of the protected transformer reaches the set alarm level, a signal is given to the operator. This enables the action that needs to be taken in the power systems before the temperature reaches a high value. If the temperature continues to rise to the trip value, the protection initiates the trip of the protected transformer.

After the trip, the transformer needs to cool down to a temperature level where the transformer can be taken into service again. T2PTTR continues to estimate the heat content of the transformer during this cooling period using a set cooling time constant. The energizing of the transformer is blocked until the heat content is reduced to the set level.

The thermal curve of two time constants is typical for a transformer. The thermal time constants of the protected transformer are given in seconds with the Short time constant and Long time constant settings. If the manufacturer does not state any other value, the Long time constant can be set to 4920 s (82 minutes) for a distribution transformer and 7260 s (121 minutes) for a supply transformer. The corresponding Short time constants are 306 s (5.1 minutes) and 456 s (7.6 minutes).

If the manufacturer of the power transformer has stated only one, that is, a single time constant, it can be converted to two time constants. The single time constant is also used by itself if the p-factor Weighting factor p setting is set to zero and the time constant value is set to the value of the Long time constant setting. The thermal image corresponds to the one time constant model in that case.

The default Max temperature setting is 105°C. This value is chosen since even though the IEC 60076-7 standard recommends 98°C as the maximum allowable temperature in long-time loading, the standard also states that a transformer can withstand the emergency loading for weeks or even months, which may produce the winding temperature of 140°C. Therefore, 105°C is a safe maximum temperature value for a transformer if the Max temperature setting value is not given by the transformer manufacturer.

The function starts when the measured current exceeds the breakdown torque level, that is, above the set limit. The operation characteristic is definite time.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block the function outputs.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of JAMPTOC can be described with a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

352

Figure 174: Functional module diagram

Level detector

The measured phase currents are compared to the set Start value. The TRMS values of the phase currents are considered for the level detection. The timer module is enabled if at least two of the measured phase currents exceed the set Start value.

Timer

Once activated, the internal START signal is activated. The value is available only through the Monitored data view. The time characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the Operate delay time value, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the timer has elapsed but the motor stall condition still exists, the OPERATE output remains active until the phase currents values drop below the Start value, that is, until the stall condition persists. If the drop-off situation occurs while the operating time is still counting, the reset timer is activated. If the drop-off time exceeds the set Reset delay time, the operating timer is reset.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H

4.1.8.5

4.1.8.6

Protection functions

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Application

The motor protection during stall is primarily needed to protect the motor from excessive temperature rise, as the motor draws large currents during the stall phase. This condition causes a temperature rise in the stator windings. Due to reduced speed, the temperature also rises in the rotor. The rotor temperature rise is more critical when the motor stops.

The physical and dielectric insulations of the system deteriorate with age and the deterioration is accelerated by the temperature increase. Insulation life is related to the time interval during which the insulation is maintained at a given temperature.

An induction motor stalls when the load torque value exceeds the breakdown torque value, causing the speed to decrease to zero or to some stable operating point well below the rated speed. This occurs, for example, when the applied shaft load is suddenly increased and is greater than the producing motor torque due to the bearing failures. This condition develops a motor current almost equal to the value of the locked-rotor current.

JAMPTOC is designed to protect the motor in stall or mechanical jam situations during the running state. To provide a good and reliable protection for motors in a stall situation, the temperature effects on the motor have to be kept within the allowed limits.

The loss of load supervision function LOFLPTUC is used to detect a sudden load loss which is considered as a fault condition.

LOFLPTUC starts when the current is less than the set limit. It operates with the definite time (DT) characteristics, which means that the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears.

1MRS757644 H

Level detector 1

This module compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the set Start value high setting. If all the phase current values are less than the set Start value high value, the loss of load condition is detected and an enable signal is sent to the timer. This signal is disabled after one or several phase currents have exceeded the set Start value high value of the element.

Level detector 2

This is a low-current detection module, which monitors the de-energized condition of the motor. It compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the set Start value low setting. If any of the phase current values is less than the set Start value low, a signal is sent to block the operation of the timer.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. The time characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the value set by Operate delay time, the OPERATE output is activated. If the fault disappears before the module operates, the reset timer is activated. If the reset timer reaches the value set by Reset delay time, the operate timer resets and the

START output is deactivated.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

The BLOCK signal blocks the operation of the function and resets the timer.

Application

When a motor runs with a load connected, it draws a current equal to a value between the no-load value and the rated current of the motor. The minimum load current can be determined by studying the characteristics of the connected load.

When the current drawn by the motor is less than the minimum load current drawn, it can be inferred that the motor is either disconnected from the load or the coupling mechanism is faulty. If the motor is allowed to run in this condition, it may aggravate the fault in the coupling mechanism or harm the personnel handling the machine. Therefore, the motor has to be disconnected from the power supply as soon as the above condition is detected.

LOFLPTUC detects the condition by monitoring the current values and helps disconnect the motor from the power supply instantaneously or after a delay according to the requirement.

When the motor is at standstill, the current will be zero and it is not recommended to activate the trip during this time. The minimum current drawn by the motor when it is connected to the power supply is the no load current, that is, the higher start value current. If the current drawn is below the lower start value current, the motor is disconnected from the power supply. LOFLPTUC detects this condition and interprets that the motor is de-energized and disables the function to prevent unnecessary trip events.

Functionality

The loss of phase, undercurrent, protection function PHPTUC is used to detect an undercurrent that is considered as a fault condition.

PHPTUC starts when the current is less than the set limit. Operation time characteristics are according to definite time (DT).

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs and reset the definite timer, if desired..

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of PHPTUC can be described with a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Level detector 1

This module compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the Start value setting.

The Operation modesetting can be used to select the "Three Phase" or "Single

Phase" mode.

If in the "Three Phase" mode all the phase current values are less than the value of the Start value setting, the condition is detected and an enable signal is sent to the

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H

timer. This signal is disabled after one or several phase currents have exceeded the set Start value value of the element.

If in the "Single Phase" mode any of the phase current values are less than the value of the Start value setting, the condition is detected and an enable signal is sent to the timer. This signal is disabled after all the phase currents have exceeded the set

Start value value of the element.

The protection relay does not accept the Start value to be smaller than

Current block value.

Level detector 2

This is a low-current detection module that monitors the de-energized condition of the protected object. The module compares the phase currents (RMS value) to the

Start value low setting. If all the phase current values are less than the Start value low setting, a signal is sent to block the operation of the timer.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output and the phase-specific ST_X output . The time characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the value set by Operate delay time, the

OPERATE output and the phasespecific OPR_X output are activated. If the fault disappears before the module operates, the reset timer is activated. If the reset timer reaches the value set by

Reset delay time, the operate timer resets and the

START output is deactivated.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR , which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available through the monitored data view.

The BLOCK signal blocks the operation of the function and resets the timer.

Application

In some cases, smaller distribution power transformers are used where the highside protection involves only power fuses. When one of the high-side fuses blows in a single-phase condition, knowledge of it on the secondary side is lacking. The resulting negative-sequence current leads to a premature failure due to excessive heating and breakdown of the transformer insulation. Knowledge of this condition when it occurs allows for a quick fuse replacement and saves the asset.

The Current block value setting can be set to zero to not block PHPTUC with a low three-phase current. However, this results in an unnecessary event sending when the transformer or protected object is disconnected.

Phase-specific start and operate can give a better picture about the evolving faults when one phase has started first and another follows.

PHPTUC is meant to be a general protection function, so that it could be used in other cases too

In case of undercurrent-based motor protection, see the Loss of load protection.

Functionality

The thermal overload protection for motors function MPTTR protects the electric motors from overheating. MPTTR models the thermal behavior of motor on the basis of the measured load current and disconnects the motor when the thermal content reaches 100 percent.

Thermal overload conditions are the most often encountered abnormal conditions in industrial motor applications. The thermal overload conditions are typically the result of an abnormal rise in the motor running current, which produces an increase in the thermal dissipation of the motor and temperature or reduces cooling. MPTTR prevents an electric motor from drawing excessive current and overheating, which causes the premature insulation failures of the windings and, in worst cases, burning out of the motors.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of MPTTR can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

The function uses ambient temperature which can be measured locally or remotely.

Local measurement is done by the protection relay. Remote measurement uses analog GOOSE to connect AMB_TEMP input.

If the quality of remotely measured temperature is invalid or communication channel fails the function uses ambient temperature set in Env temperature Set.

Internal FLC calculator

Full load current ( FLC) of the motor is defined by the manufacturer at an ambient temperature of 40°C. Special considerations are required with an application where

363

Protection functions

364

1MRS757644 H the ambient temperature of a motor exceeds or remains below 40°C. A motor operating at a higher temperature, even if at or below rated load, can subject the motor windings to excessive temperature similar to that resulting from overload operation at normal ambient temperature. The motor rating has to be appropriately reduced for operation in such high ambient temperatures. Similarly, when the ambient temperature is considerably lower than the nominal 40°C, the motor can be slightly overloaded. For calculating thermal level it is better that the FLC values are scaled for different temperatures. The scaled currents are known as internal FLC.

An internal FLC is calculated based on the ambient temperature shown in the table.

The Env temperature mode setting defines whether the thermal level calculations are based on FLC or internal FLC.

When the value of the Env temperature mode setting is set to the "FLC Only" mode, no internal FLC is calculated. Instead, the FLC given in the data sheet of the manufacturer is used. When the value of the Env temperature mode setting is set to "Set Amb Temp" mode, the internal FLC is calculated based on the ambient temperature taken as an input through the Env temperature Set setting. When the

Env temperature mode setting is on "Use input" mode, the internal FLC is calculated from temperature data available through resistance temperature detectors ( RTDs) using the AMB_TEMP input.

The ambient temperature is used for calculating thermal level and it is available in the monitored data view from the TEMP_AMB output. The activation of the BLOCK input does not affect the TEMP_AMB output.

The Env temperature Set setting is used:

• If the ambient temperature measurement value is not connected to the

AMB_TEMP input in ACT.

• When the ambient temperature measurement connected to 49M is set to "Not in use" in the RTD function.

• In case of any errors or malfunctioning in the RTD output.

Thermal level calculator

The module calculates the thermal load considering the TRMS and negativesequence currents. The heating up of the motor is determined by the square value of the load current.

However, in case of unbalanced phase currents, the negative-sequence current also causes additional heating. By deploying a protection based on both current components, abnormal heating of the motor is avoided.

The thermal load is calculated based on different situations or operations and it also depends on the phase current level. The equations used for the heating calculations are:

The required overload factor and negative sequence current heating effect factor are set by the values of the Overload factor and Negative Seq factor settings.

In order to accurately calculate the motor thermal condition, different time constants are used in the above equations. These time constants are employed based on different motor running conditions, for example starting, normal or stop, and are set through the Time constant start, Time constant normal and Time constant stop settings. Only one time constant is valid at a time.

The thermal level at the power-up of the protection relay is defined by the Initial thermal Val setting.

The temperature calculation is initiated from the value defined in the Initial thermal

Val setting. This is done if the protection relay is powered up or the function is turned off and back on or reset through the Clear menu.

The calculated temperature of the protected object relative to the operate level, the

TEMP_RL output, is available through the monitored data view. The activation of the

BLOCK input does not affect the calculated temperature.

The thermal level at the beginning of the start-up condition of a motor and at the end of the start-up condition is available in the monitored data view at the

THERMLEV_ST and THERMLEV_END outputs respectively. The activation of the BLOCK input does not have any effect on these outputs.

Alarm and tripping logic

The module generates alarm, restart inhibit and tripping signals.

When the thermal level exceeds the set value of the Alarm thermal value setting, the ALARM output is activated. Sometimes a condition arises when it becomes necessary to inhibit the restarting of a motor, for example in case of some extreme starting condition like long starting time. If the thermal content exceeds the set value of the Restart thermal val setting, the

BLK_RESTART output is activated. The time for the next possible motor start-up is available through the monitored data view from the T_ENARESTART output. The T_ENARESTART output estimates the time for the BLK_RESTART deactivation considering as if the motor is stopped.

When the emergency start signal START_EMERG is set high, the thermal level is set to a value below the thermal restart inhibit level. This allows at least one motor start-up, even though the thermal level has exceeded the restart inhibit level.

When the thermal content reaches 100 percent, the OPERATE output is activated.

The OPERATE output is deactivated when the value of the measured current falls below 12 percent of Current reference or the thermal content drops below 100 percent.

Application

MPTTR is intended to limit the motor thermal level to predetermined values during the abnormal motor operating conditions. This prevents a premature motor insulation failure.

The abnormal conditions result in overheating and include overload, stalling, failure to start, high ambient temperature, restricted motor ventilation, reduced speed operation, frequent starting or jogging, high or low line voltage or frequency, mechanical failure of the driven load, improper installation and unbalanced

369

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H line voltage or single phasing. The protection of insulation failure by the implementation of current sensing cannot detect some of these conditions, such as restricted ventilation. Similarly, the protection by sensing temperature alone can be inadequate in cases like frequent starting or jogging. The thermal overload protection addresses these deficiencies to a larger extent by deploying a motor thermal model based on load current.

The thermal load is calculated using the true RMS phase value and negative sequence value of the current. The heating up of the motor is determined by the square value of the load current. However, while calculating the thermal level, the rated current should be re-rated or de-rated depending on the value of the ambient temperature. Apart from current, the rate at which motor heats up or cools is governed by the time constant of the motor.

Setting the weighting factor

There are two thermal curves: one which characterizes the short-time loads and long-time overloads and which is also used for tripping and another which is used for monitoring the thermal condition of the motor. The value of the Weighting factor p setting determines the ratio of the thermal increase of the two curves.

When the Weighting factor p setting is 100 percent, a pure single time constant thermal unit is produced which is used for application with the cables. As presented

in Figure 185 , the hot curve with the value of

Weighting factor p being 100 percent only allows an operate time which is about 10 percent of that with no prior load.

For example, when the set time constant is 640 seconds, the operate time with the prior load 1 x FLC (full Load Current) and overload factor 1.05 is only 2 seconds, even if the motor could withstand at least 5 to 6 seconds. To allow the use of the full capacity of the motor, a lower value of Weighting factor p should be used.

Normally, an approximate value of half of the thermal capacity is used when the motor is running at full load. Thus by setting Weighting factor p to 50 percent, the protection relay notifies a 45 to 50 percent thermal capacity use at full load.

For direct-on-line started motors with hot spot tendencies, the value of Weighting factor p is typically set to 50 percent, which will properly distinguish between shorttime thermal stress and long-time thermal history. After a short period of thermal stress, for example a motor start-up, the thermal level starts to decrease quite sharply, simulating the leveling out of the hot spots. Consequently, the probability of successive allowed start-ups increases.

When protecting the objects without hot spot tendencies, for example motors started with soft starters, and cables, the value of Weighting factor p is set to 100 percent. With the value of Weighting factor p set to 100 percent, the thermal level decreases slowly after a heavy load condition. This makes the protection suitable for applications where no hot spots are expected. Only in special cases where the thermal overload protection is required to follow the characteristics of the object to be protected more closely and the thermal capacity of the object is very well known, a value between 50 and 100 percent is required.

For motor applications where, for example, two hot starts are allowed instead of three cold starts, the value of the setting Weighting factor p being 40 percent has proven to be useful. Setting the value of Weighting factor p significantly below

50 percent should be handled carefully as there is a possibility to overload the protected object as a thermal unit might allow too many hot starts or the thermal history of the motor has not been taken into account sufficiently.

Setting the overload factor

The value of Overload factor defines the highest permissible continuous load. The recommended value is 1.05.

Setting the negative sequence factor

During the unbalance condition, the symmetry of the stator currents is disturbed and a counter-rotating negative sequence component current is set up. An increased stator current causes additional heating in the stator and the negative sequence component current excessive heating in the rotor. Also mechanical problems like rotor vibration can occur.

The most common cause of unbalance for three-phase motors is the loss of phase resulting in an open fuse, connector or conductor. Often mechanical problems

371

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H can be more severe than the heating effects and therefore a separate unbalance protection is used.

Unbalances in other connected loads in the same busbar can also affect the motor.

A voltage unbalance typically produces 5 to 7 times higher current unbalance.

Because the thermal overload protection is based on the highest TRMS value of the phase current, the additional heating in stator winding is automatically taken into account. For more accurate thermal modeling, the Negative Seq factor setting is used for taking account of the rotor heating effect.

(Equation 24)

For example, the motor start-up time is 11 seconds, start-up current 6 x rated and

Time constant start is set for 800 seconds. Using the trip curve with no prior load, the operation time at 6 x rated current is 25 seconds, one motor start-up uses 11/25

≈ 45 percent of the thermal capacity of the motor. Therefore, the restart disable level must be set to below 100 percent - 45 percent = 55 percent, for example to 50 percent (100 percent - (45 percent + margin), where margin is 5 percent).

Setting the thermal alarm level

Tripping due to high overload is avoided by reducing the load of the motor on a prior alarm.

Functionality

The non-directional earth-fault protection function EFxPTOC is used as nondirectional earth-fault protection for feeders.

The function starts and operates when the residual current exceeds the set limit.

The operate time characteristic for low stage EFLPTOC and high stage EFHPTOC can be selected to be either definite time (DT) or inverse definite minimum time (IDMT). The instantaneous stage EFIPTOC always operates with the DT characteristic.

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of EFxPTOC can be described by using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Technical Manual

Figure 187: Functional module diagram

Level detector

The operating quantity can be selected with the setting Io signal Sel. The selectable options are "Measured Io" and "Calculated Io". The operating quantity is compared to the set Start value. If the measured value exceeds the set Start value, the level detector sends an enable-signal to the timer module. If the ENA_MULT input is active, the Start value setting is multiplied by the Start value Mult setting.

The protection relay does not accept the Start value or Start value Mult setting if the product of these settings exceeds the Start value setting range.

The start value multiplication is normally done when the inrush detection function

(INRPHAR) is connected to the ENA_MULT input.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the user-programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter

B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operate delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or user programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operate and reset times.

1MRS757644 H

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operate time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11.2.1 IDMT curves for overcurrent protection

in this manual.

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Measurement modes

The function operates on three alternative measurement modes: "RMS", "DFT" and

"Peak-to-Peak". The measurement mode is selected with the Measurement mode setting.

Timer characteristics

EFxPTOC supports both DT and IDMT characteristics. The user can select the timer characteristics with the Operating curve type and Type of reset curve settings.

When the DT characteristic is selected, it is only affected by the Operate delay time and Reset delay time settings.

The protection relay provides 16 IDMT characteristics curves, of which seven comply with the IEEE C37.112 and six with the IEC 60255-3 standard. Two curves follow the

The user can choose the DT characteristic by selecting the Operating curve type values "ANSI Def. Time" or "IEC Def. Time". The functionality is identical in both cases.

The following characteristics, which comply with the list in the IEC 61850-7-4 specification, indicate the characteristics supported by different stages:

The Type of reset curve setting does not apply to EFIPTOC or when the

DT operation is selected. The reset is purely defined by the Reset delay time setting.

Application

EFxPTOC is designed for protection and clearance of earth faults in distribution and sub-transmission networks where the neutral point is isolated or earthed via a resonance coil or through low resistance. It also applies to solidly earthed networks and earth-fault protection of different equipment connected to the power systems, such as shunt capacitor bank or shunt reactors and for backup earth-fault protection of power transformers.

Many applications require several steps using different current start levels and time delays. EFxPTOC consists of three different protection stages.

• Low EFLPTOC

• High EFHPTOC

• Instantaneous EFIPTOC

EFLPTOC contains several types of time-delay characteristics. EFHPTOC and

EFIPTOC are used for fast clearance of serious earth faults.

Functionality

The directional earth-fault protection function DEFxPDEF is used as directional earth-fault protection for feeders.

The function starts and operates when the operating quantity (current) and polarizing quantity (voltage) exceed the set limits and the angle between them is inside the set operating sector. The operate time characteristic for low stage

(DEFLPDEF) and high stage (DEFHPDEF) can be selected to be either definite time

(DT) or inverse definite minimum time (IDMT).

In the DT mode, the function operates after a predefined operate time and resets when the fault current disappears. The IDMT mode provides current-dependent timer characteristics.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of DEFxPDEF can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Figure 189: Functional module diagram

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions

Level detector

The magnitude of the operating quantity is compared to the set Start value and the magnitude of the polarizing quantity is compared to the set Voltage start value. If both the limits are exceeded, the level detector sends an enabling signal to the timer module. When the Enable voltage limit setting is set to "False", Voltage start value has no effect and the level detection is purely based on the operating quantity. If the ENA_MULT input is active, the Start value setting is multiplied by the

Start value Mult setting.

The operating quantity (residual current) can be selected with the setting Io signal

Sel. The options are "Measured Io" and "Calculated Io". If "Measured Io" is selected, the current ratio for Io-channel is given in Configuration > Analog inputs > Current

(Io,CT). If "Calculated Io" is selected, the current ratio is obtained from the phasecurrent channels given in Configuration > Analog inputs > Current (3I,CT).

The operating quantity (residual voltage) can be selected with the setting Uo signal Sel. The options are "Measured Uo" and "Calculated Uo". If "Measured Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio for Uo-channel is given in Configuration > Analog

inputs > Voltage (Uo,VT). If "Calculated Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio is obtained from the phase-voltage channels given in Configuration > Analog inputs >

Voltage (3U,VT).

Example 1: Io is measured with cable core CT (100/1 A) and Uo is measured from open-delta connected VTs (20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/sqrt(3) V : 100/3 V). In this case,

"Measured Io" and "Measured Uo" are selected. The nominal values for residual current and residual voltage are obtained from CT and VT ratios entered in Residual current Io: Configuration > Analog inputs > Current (Io,CT): 100 A : 1 A. The Residual voltage Uo: Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (Uo,VT): 11.547 kV : 100 V. The

Start value of 1.0 × In corresponds to 1.0 * 100 A = 100 A in the primary. The Voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 * 11.547 kV = 11.547 kV in the primary.

Example 2: Both Io and Uo are calculated from the phase quantities. Phase CTratio is 100 : 1 A and phase VT-ratio is 20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/sqrt(3) V. In this case,

"Calculated Io" and "Calculated Uo" are selected. The nominal values for residual current and residual voltage are obtained from CT and VT ratios entered in Residual current Io: Configuration > Analog inputs > Current (3I,CT): 100 A : 1 A. The residual voltage Uo: Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (3U,VT): 20.000 kV : 100 V. The

Start value of 1.0 × In corresponds to 1.0 * 100 A = 100 A in the primary. The Voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 * 20.000 kV = 20.000 kV in the primary.

If "Calculated Uo" is selected, the residual voltage nominal value is always phase-to-phase voltage. Thus, the valid maximum setting for residual

Voltage start value is 0.577 x Un. The calculated Uo requires that all the three phase-to-earth voltages are connected to the protection relay. Uo cannot be calculated from the phase-to-phase voltages.

If the Enable voltage limit setting is set to "True", the magnitude of the polarizing quantity is checked even if the Directional mode was set to

"Non-directional" or Allow Non Dir to "True". The protection relay does not accept the Start value or Start value Mult setting if the product of these settings exceeds the Start value setting range.

Typically, the ENA_MULT input is connected to the inrush detection function

INRHPAR. In case of inrush, INRPHAR activates the ENA_MULT input, which multiplies

Start value by the Start value Mult setting.

The directional calculation module monitors the angle between the polarizing quantity and operating quantity. Depending on the Pol quantity setting, the polarizing quantity can be the residual voltage (measured or calculated) or the negative sequence voltage. When the angle is in the operation sector, the module sends the enabling signal to the timer module.

The minimum signal level which allows the directional operation can be set with the

Min operate current and Min operate voltage settings.

If Pol quantity is set to "Zero. seq. volt", the residual current and residual voltage are used for directional calculation.

If Pol quantity is set to "Neg. seq. volt", the negative sequence current and negative sequence voltage are used for directional calculation.

In the phasor diagrams representing the operation of DEFxPDEF, the polarity of the polarizing quantity (Uo or U2) is reversed, that is, the polarizing quantity in the phasor diagrams is either -Uo or -U2. Reversing is done by switching the polarity of the residual current measuring channel (see the connection diagram in the application manual). Similarly the polarity of the calculated Io and I

For defining the operation sector, there are five modes available through the

Description

The operating sectors for forward and reverse are defined with the settings Min forward angle , Max forward angle , Min reverse angle and Max reverse angle .

The operating sectors are defined as "forward" when |Io| x sin

(ANGLE) has a positive value and "reverse" when the value is negative. ANGLE is the angle difference between -Uo and Io.

As "IoSin" mode. Only cosine is used for calculating the operation current.

The sector maximum values are frozen to 80 degrees respectively. Only Min forward angle and Min reverse angle are settable.

The sector maximum values are frozen to 88 degrees. Otherwise as "Phase angle 80" mode.

Polarizing quantity selection "Neg. seq. volt." is available only in the

"Phase angle" operation mode.

The directional operation can be selected with the Directional mode setting.

The alternatives are "Non-directional", "Forward" and "Reverse" operation. The operation criterion is selected with the Operation mode setting. By setting Allow

Non Dir to "True", non-directional operation is allowed when the directional information is invalid, that is, when the magnitude of the polarizing quantity is less than the value of the Min operate voltage setting.

Typically, the network rotating direction is counter-clockwise and defined as "ABC".

If the network rotating direction is reversed, meaning clockwise, that is, "ACB", the equation for calculating the negative sequence voltage component need to be

1MRS757644 H Protection functions changed. The network rotating direction is defined with a system parameter Phase rotation. The calculation of the component is affected but the angle difference calculation remains the same. When the residual voltage is used as the polarizing method, the network rotating direction change has no effect on the direction calculation.

The network rotating direction is set in the protection relay using the parameter in the HMI menu: Configuration > System > Phase rotation.

The default parameter value is "ABC".

If the Enable voltage limit setting is set to "True", the magnitude of the polarizing quantity is checked even if Directional mode is set to

"Non-directional" or Allow Non Dir to "True".

The Characteristic angle setting is used in the "Phase angle" mode to adjust the operation according to the method of neutral point earthing so that in an isolated network the

Characteristic angle (φ

) = -90° and in a compensated network φ

= 0°. In addition, the characteristic angle can be changed via the control signal

RCA_CTL. RCA_CTL affects the Characteristic angle setting.

The Correction angle setting can be used to improve selectivity due the inaccuracies in the measurement transformers. The setting decreases the operation sector. The correction can only be used with the "IoCos" or "IoSin" modes.

The polarity of the polarizing quantity can be reversed by setting the Pol reversal to

"True", which turns the polarizing quantity by 180 degrees.

"IoCos", I_OPER is calculated as follows I_OP-

ER = Io x cos(ANGLE).

Monitored data values are accessible on the LHMI or through tools via communications.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or

IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the

DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

When the user-programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined by the parameters Curve parameter A, Curve parameter

B, Curve parameter C, Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operate delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The functionality of the timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the set Reset delay time value is exceeded.

When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to

"Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type "Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type "Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation. The

START output is deactivated when the reset timer has elapsed.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or user programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operate and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operate time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used.

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve, but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. For more

information, see Chapter 11.2.1 IDMT curves for overcurrent protection

in this manual.

Protection functions

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Directional earth-fault principles

In many cases it is difficult to achieve selective earth-fault protection based on the magnitude of residual current only. To obtain a selective earth-fault protection scheme, it is necessary to take the phase angle of Io into account. This is done by comparing the phase angle of the operating and polarizing quantity.

Relay characteristic angle

The Characteristic angle setting, also known as Relay Characteristic Angle (RCA),

Relay Base Angle or Maximum Torque Angle (MTA), is used in the "Phase angle" mode to turn the directional characteristic if the expected fault current angle does not coincide with the polarizing quantity to produce the maximum torque. That is,

RCA is the angle between the maximum torque line and polarizing quantity. If the polarizing quantity is in phase with the maximum torque line, RCA is 0 degrees. The angle is positive if the operating current lags the polarizing quantity and negative if it leads the polarizing quantity.

Directional earth-fault protection in an isolated neutral network

In isolated networks, there is no intentional connection between the system neutral point and earth. The only connection is through the phase-to-earth capacitances (C

0

) of phases and leakage resistances (R

0

). This means that the residual current is mainly capacitive and has a phase shift of -90 degrees compared to the polarizing voltage. Consequently, the relay characteristic angle (RCA) should be set to -90 degrees and the operation criteria to "IoSin" or "Phase angle". The width of the operating sector in the phase angle criteria can be selected with the settings Min forward angle, Max forward angle, Min reverse angle or Max reverse angle.

Figure 193: Earth-fault situation in an isolated network

Directional earth-fault protection in a compensated network

In compensated networks, the capacitive fault current and the inductive resonance coil current compensate each other. The protection cannot be based on the reactive current measurement, since the current of the compensation coil would disturb the operation of the protection relays. In this case, the selectivity is based on the measurement of the active current component. The magnitude of this component is often small and must be increased by means of a parallel resistor in the compensation equipment. When measuring the resistive part of the residual current, the relay characteristic angle (RCA) should be set to 0 degrees and the operation criteria to "IoCos" or "Phase angle".

The Petersen coil or the earthing resistor may be temporarily out of operation. To keep the protection scheme selective, it is necessary to update the Characteristic angle setting accordingly. This can be done with an auxiliary input in the protection relay which receives a signal from an auxiliary switch of the disconnector of the

Petersen coil in compensated networks. As a result the characteristic angle is set automatically to suit the earthing method used. The RCA_CTL input can be used to change the operation criteria as described in

Table 403 and Table 404 .

Use of the extended phase angle characteristic

The traditional method of adapting the directional earth-fault protection function to the prevailing neutral earthing conditions is done with the Characteristic angle setting. In an unearthed network, Characteristic angle is set to -90 degrees and in a compensated network Characteristic angle is set to 0 degrees. In case the earthing method of the network is temporarily changed from compensated to unearthed due to the disconnection of the arc suppression coil, the Characteristic angle setting should be modified correspondingly. This can be done using the setting

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions groups or the RCA_CTL input. Alternatively, the operating sector of the directional earth-fault protection function can be extended to cover the operating sectors of both neutral earthing principles. Such characteristic is valid for both unearthed and compensated network and does not require any modification in case the neutral earthing changes temporarily from the unearthed to compensated network or vice versa.

The extended phase angle characteristic is created by entering a value of over 90 degrees for the Min forward angle setting; a typical value is 170 degrees ( Min reverse angle in case Directional mode is set to "Reverse"). The Max forward angle setting should be set to cover the possible measurement inaccuracies of current and voltage transformers; a typical value is 80 degrees ( Max reverse angle in case

Directional mode is set to "Reverse").

Phase angle characteristic

The operation criterion phase angle is selected with the Operation mode setting using the value "Phase angle".

When the phase angle criterion is used, the function indicates with the DIRECTION output whether the operating quantity is within the forward or reverse operation sector or within the non-directional sector.

The forward and reverse sectors are defined separately. The forward operation area is limited with the Min forward angle and Max forward angle settings. The reverse operation area is limited with the Min reverse angle and Max reverse angle settings.

The sector limits are always given as positive degree values.

In the forward operation area, the Max forward angle setting gives the clockwise sector and the Min forward angle setting correspondingly the counterclockwise sector, measured from the Characteristic angle setting.

In the reverse operation area, the Max reverse angle setting gives the clockwise sector and the Min reverse angle setting correspondingly the counterclockwise sector, measured from the complement of the Characteristic angle setting (180 degrees phase shift) .

The relay characteristic angle (RCA) is set to positive if the operating current lags the polarizing quantity. It is set to negative if it leads the polarizing quantity.

1MRS757644 H Protection functions

Iosin(φ) and Iocos(φ) criteria

A more modern approach to directional protection is the active or reactive current measurement. The operating characteristic of the directional operation depends on the earthing principle of the network. The Iosin(φ) characteristics is used in an isolated network, measuring the reactive component of the fault current caused by the earth capacitance. The Iocos(φ) characteristics is used in a compensated network, measuring the active component of the fault current.

The operation criteria Iosin(φ) and Iocos(φ) are selected with the Operation mode setting using the values "IoSin" or "IoCos" respectively.

The angle correction setting can be used to improve selectivity. The setting decreases the operation sector. The correction can only be used with the Iosin(φ) or

Iocos(φ) criterion. The RCA_CTL input is used to change the Io characteristic:

Operation mode:

RCA_CTL = "False"

Actual operation criterion: Iosin(φ)

Actual operation criterion: Iocos(φ)

RCA_CTL = "True"

Actual operation criterion: Iocos(φ)

Actual operation criterion: Iosin(φ)

When the Iosin(φ) or Iocos(φ) criterion is used, the component indicates a forwardor reverse-type fault through the FAULT_DIR and DIRECTION outputs, in which 1 equals a forward fault and 2 equals a reverse fault. Directional operation is not allowed (the Allow non dir setting is "False") when the measured polarizing or operating quantities are not valid, that is, when their magnitude is below the set minimum values. The minimum values can be defined with the Min operate current and Min operate voltage settings. In case of low magnitude, the FAULT_DIR and

DIRECTION outputs are set to 0 = unknown, except when the Allow non dir setting is "True". In that case, the function is allowed to operate in the directional mode as non-directional, since the directional information is invalid.

The calculated Iosin(φ) or Iocos(φ) current used in direction determination can be read through the I_OPER monitored data. The value can be passed directly to a decisive element, which provides the final start and operate signals.

The I_OPER monitored data gives an absolute value of the calculated current.

Phase angle 80

The operation criterion phase angle 80 is selected with the Operation mode setting by using the value "Phase angle 80".

Phase angle 80 implements the same functionality as the phase angle but with the following differences:

• The Max forward angle and Max reverse angle settings cannot be set but they have a fixed value of 80 degrees

• The sector limits of the fixed sectors are rounded.

The sector rounding is used for cancelling the CT measurement errors at low current amplitudes. When the current amplitude falls below three percent of the nominal current, the sector is reduced to 70 degrees at the fixed sector side.

This makes the protection more selective, which means that the phase angle measurement errors do not cause faulty operation.

There is no sector rounding on the other side of the sector.

Application

The directional earth-fault protection DEFxPDEF is designed for protection and clearance of earth faults and for earth-fault protection of different equipment connected to the power systems, such as shunt capacitor banks or shunt reactors, and for backup earth-fault protection of power transformers.

Many applications require several steps using different current start levels and time delays. DEFxPDEF consists of two different stages.

• Low DEFLPDEF

• High DEFHPDEF

DEFLPDEF contains several types of time delay characteristics. DEFHPDEF is used for fast clearance of serious earth faults.

The protection can be based on the phase angle criterion with extended operating sector. It can also be based on measuring either the reactive part Iosin(φ) or the active part Iocos(φ) of the residual current. In isolated networks or in networks with high impedance earthing, the phase-to-earth fault current is significantly smaller than the short-circuit currents. In addition, the magnitude of the fault current is almost independent of the fault location in the network.

The function uses the residual current components Iocos(φ) or Iosin(φ) according to the earthing method, where φ is the angle between the residual current and the reference residual voltage (-Uo). In compensated networks, the phase angle criterion with extended operating sector can also be used. When the relay characteristic angle RCA is 0 degrees, the negative quadrant of the operation sector can be extended with the Min forward angle setting. The operation sector can be set between 0 and -180 degrees, so that the total operation sector is from +90 to

-180 degrees. In other words, the sector can be up to 270 degrees wide. This allows the protection settings to stay the same when the resonance coil is disconnected from between the neutral point and earth.

System neutral earthing is meant to protect personnel and equipment and to reduce interference for example in telecommunication systems. The neutral earthing sets challenges for protection systems, especially for earth-fault protection.

In isolated networks, there is no intentional connection between the system neutral point and earth. The only connection is through the line-to-earth capacitances (C

0

) of phases and leakage resistances (R

0

). This means that the residual current is mainly capacitive and has -90 degrees phase shift compared to the residual voltage

(-Uo). The characteristic angle is -90 degrees.

In resonance-earthed networks, the capacitive fault current and the inductive resonance coil current compensate each other. The protection cannot be based on the reactive current measurement, since the current of the compensation coil would disturb the operation of the relays. In this case, the selectivity is based on the measurement of the active current component. This means that the residual current is mainly resistive and has zero phase shift compared to the residual voltage (-Uo) and the characteristic angle is 0 degrees. Often the magnitude of this component is small, and must be increased by means of a parallel resistor in the compensation equipment.

In networks where the neutral point is earthed through low resistance, the characteristic angle is also 0 degrees (for phase angle). Alternatively, Iocos(φ) operation can be used.

In solidly earthed networks, the Characteristic angle is typically set to +60 degrees for the phase angle. Alternatively, Iosin(φ) operation can be used with a reversal

409

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H polarizing quantity. The polarizing quantity can be rotated 180 degrees by setting the Pol reversal parameter to "True" or by switching the polarity of the residual voltage measurement wires. Although the Iosin(φ) operation can be used in solidly earthed networks, the phase angle is recommended.

Connection of measuring transformers in directional earth fault applications

The residual current Io can be measured with a core balance current transformer or the residual connection of the phase current signals. If the neutral of the network is either isolated or earthed with high impedance, a core balance current transformer is recommended to be used in earth-fault protection. To ensure sufficient accuracy of residual current measurements and consequently the selectivity of the scheme, the core balance current transformers should have a transformation ratio of at least

70:1. Lower transformation ratios such as 50:1 or 50:5 are not recommended.

Attention should be paid to make sure the measuring transformers are connected correctly so that DEFxPDEF is able to detect the fault current direction without failure. As directional earth fault uses residual current and residual voltage (-Uo), the poles of the measuring transformers must match each other and also the fault current direction. Also the earthing of the cable sheath must be taken into notice when using core balance current transformers. The following figure describes how measuring transformers can be connected to the protection relay.

Functionality

The transient/intermittent earth-fault protection function INTRPTEF is a function designed for the protection and clearance of permanent and intermittent earth faults in distribution and sub-transmission networks. Fault detection is done from the residual current and residual voltage signals by monitoring the transients.

The operating time characteristics are according to definite time (DT).

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of INTRPTEF can be described with a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

The residual voltage can be selected from the Uo signal Sel setting. The options are "Measured Uo" and "Calculated Uo". If "Measured Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio for Uo-channel is given in the global setting Configuration > Analog inputs >

Voltage (Uo,VT). If "Calculated Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio is obtained from phase-voltage channels given in the global setting Configuration > Analog inputs >

Voltage (3U,VT).

Example 1: Uo is measured from open-delta connected VTs (20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/ sqrt(3) V : 100/3 V). In this case, "Measured Uo" is selected. The nominal values for residual voltage is obtained from VT ratios entered in Residual voltage Uo:

Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (Uo,VT): 11.547 kV :100 V. The residual voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 × 11.547 kV = 11.547 kV in the primary.

Example 2: Uo is calculated from phase quantities. The phase VT-ratio is 20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/sqrt(3) V. In this case, "Calculated Uo" is selected. The nominal values for residual current and residual voltage are obtained from VT ratios entered in

Residual voltage Uo: Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (3U,VT): 20.000 kV :

100 V. The residual voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 × 20.000 kV =

20.000 kV in the primary.

If "Calculated Uo" is selected, the residual voltage nominal value is always phase-to-phase voltage. Thus, the valid maximum setting for residual voltage start value is 0.577 × Un. Calculated Uo requires that all three phase-to-earth voltages are connected to the protection relay. Uo cannot be calculated from the phase-to-phase voltages.

Transient detector

The Transient detector module is used for detecting transients in the residual current and residual voltage signals.

The transient detection is supervised with a settable current threshold. With a special filtering technique, the setting Min operate current is based on the fundamental frequency current. This setting should be set based on the value of

421

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H the parallel resistor of the coil, with security margin. For example, if the resistive current of the parallel resistor is 10 A, then a value of 0.7×10 A = 7 A could be used.

The same setting is also applicable in case the coil is disconnected and the network becomes unearthed. Generally, a smaller value should be used and it must never exceed the value of the parallel resistor in order to allow operation of the faulted feeder.

Fault indication logic

Depending on the set Operation mode, INTRPTEF has two independent modes for detecting earth faults. The "Transient EF" mode is intended to detect all kinds of earth faults. The "Intermittent EF" mode is dedicated for detecting intermittent earth faults in cable networks.

To satisfy the sensitivity requirements, basic earth-fault protection

(based on fundamental frequency phasors) should always be used in parallel with the INTRPTEF function.

The Fault indication logic module determines the direction of the fault. The fault direction determination is secured by multi-frequency neutral admittance measurement and special filtering techniques. This enables fault direction determination which is not sensitive to disturbances in measured Io and Uo signals, for example, switching transients.

When Directional mode setting "Forward" is used, the protection operates when the fault is in the protected feeder. When Directional mode setting "Reverse" is used, the protection operates when the fault is outside the protected feeder

(in the background network). If the direction has no importance, the value "Nondirectional" can be selected. The detected fault direction (FAULT_DIR) is available in the monitored data view.

In the "Transient EF" mode, when the start transient of the fault is detected and the Uo level exceeds the set "Voltage start value", Timer 1 is activated. Timer 1 is kept activated until the Uo level exceeds the set value or in case of a drop-off, the drop-off duration is shorter than the set Reset delay time.

In the "Intermittent EF" mode, when the start transient of the fault is detected and the Uo level exceeds the set Voltage start value, the Timer 1 is activated. When a required number of intermittent earth-fault transients set with the Peak counter limit setting are detected without the function being reset (depends on the dropoff time set with the Reset delay time setting), the START output is activated. The

Timer 1 is kept activated as long as transients are occurring during the drop-off time defined by setting Reset delay time.

Timer 1

The time characteristic is according to DT.

In the "Transient EF" mode, the OPERATE output is activated after Operate delay time if the residual voltage exceeds the set "Voltage start value". The Reset delay time starts to elapse when residual voltage falls below Voltage start value. If there is no OPERATE activation, for example, the fault disappears momentarily, START stays activated until the the Reset delay time elapses. After OPERATE activation, START and OPERATE signals are reset as soon as Uo falls below Voltage start value.

Figure 208: Example of INTRPTEF operation in ”Transient EF” mode in the faulty feeder

In the "Intermittent EF" mode the OPERATE output is activated when the following conditions are fulfilled:

• the number of transients that have been detected exceeds the Peak counter limit setting

• the timer has reached the time set with the Operate delay time

• and one additional transient is detected during the drop-off cycle

The Reset delay time starts to elapse from each detected transient (peak). In case there is no OPERATE activation, for example, the fault disappears momentarily

START stays activated until the Reset delay time elapses, that is, reset takes place if time between transients is more than Reset delay time. After

OPERATE activation, a fixed pulse length of 100 ms for OPERATE is given, whereas START is reset after

Reset delay time elapses

The timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Timer 2

If the function is used in the directional mode and an opposite direction transient is detected, the BLK_EF output is activated for the fixed delay time of 25 ms. If the

START output is activated when the BLK_EF output is active, the BLK_EF output is deactivated.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting Configuration > System >

Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE

Application

INTRPTEF is an earth-fault function dedicated to operate in intermittent and permanent earth faults occurring in distribution and sub-transmission networks.

Fault detection is done from the residual current and residual voltage signals by monitoring the transients with predefined criteria. As the function has a dedicated purpose for the fault types, fast detection and clearance of the faults can be achieved.

Intermittent earth fault

Intermittent earth fault is a special type of fault that is encountered especially in compensated networks with underground cables. A typical reason for this type of fault is the deterioration of cable insulation either due to mechanical stress or due to insulation material aging process where water or moisture gradually penetrates the cable insulation. This eventually reduces the voltage withstand of the insulation, leading to a series of cable insulation breakdowns. The fault is initiated as the phaseto- earth voltage exceeds the reduced insulation level of the fault point and mostly extinguishes itself as the fault current drops to zero for the first time, as shown in

Figure 210 . As a result, very short transients, that is, rapid changes in the

form of spikes in residual current (Io) and in residual voltage (Uo), can be repeatedly measured. Typically, the fault resistance in case of an intermittent earth fault is only a few ohms.

Earth-fault transients

In general, earth faults generate transients in currents and voltages. There are several factors that affect the magnitude and frequency of these transients, such

425

Protection functions 1MRS757644 H as the fault moment on the voltage wave, fault location, fault resistance and the parameters of the feeders and the supplying transformers. In the fault initiation, the voltage of the faulty phase decreases and the corresponding capacitance is discharged to earth (→ discharge transients). At the same time, the voltages of the healthy phases increase and the related capacitances are charged (→ charge transient).

If the fault is permanent (non-transient) in nature, only the initial fault transient in current and voltage can be measured, whereas the intermittent fault creates repetitive transients.

Functionality

The admittance-based earth-fault protection function EFPADM provides a selective earth-fault protection function for high-resistance earthed, unearthed and compensated networks. It can be applied for the protection of overhead lines as well as with underground cables. It can be used as an alternative solution to traditional residual current-based earth-fault protection functions, such as the IoCos mode in DEFxPDEF. Main advantages of EFPADM include a versatile applicability, good sensitivity and easy setting principles.

EFPADM is based on evaluating the neutral admittance of the network, that is, the quotient:

Yo

=

Io /

Uo

(Equation 25)

The measured admittance is compared to the admittance characteristic boundaries in the admittance plane. The supported characteristics include overadmittance, oversusceptance, overconductance or any combination of the three. The directionality of the oversusceptance and overconductance criteria can be defined as forward, reverse or non-directional, and the boundary lines can be tilted if required by the application. This allows the optimization of the shape of the admittance characteristics for any given application.

The function supports two calculation algorithms for admittance. The admittance calculation can be set to include or exclude the prefault zero-sequence values of Io and Uo. Furthermore, the calculated admittance is recorded at the time of the trip and it can be monitored for post-fault analysis purposes.

To ensure the security of the protection, the admittance calculation is supervised by a residual overvoltage condition which releases the admittance protection during a fault condition. Alternatively, the release signal can be provided by an external binary signal.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of EFPADM can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Neutral admittance calculation

The residual current can be selected from the Io signal Sel setting. The setting options are "Measured Io" and "Calculated Io". If "Measured Io" is selected, the current ratio for Io-channel is given in Configuration > Analog inputs > Current

(Io,CT). If "Calculated Io" is selected, the current ratio is obtained from phasecurrent channels given in Configuration > Analog inputs > Current (3I,CT).

Respectively, the residual voltage can be selected from the Uo signal Sel setting.

The setting options are "Measured Uo" and "Calculated Uo". If "Measured Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio for Uo-channel is given in Configuration > Analog

inputs > Voltage (Uo,VT). If "Calculated Uo" is selected, the voltage ratio is obtained from phase-voltage channels given in Configuration > Analog inputs >

Voltage (3U,VT).

Example 1: Uo is measured from open-delta connected VTs (20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/ sqrt(3) V:100/3 V). In this case, "Measured Uo" is selected. The nominal values for residual voltage is obtained from the VT ratios entered in Residual voltage Uo :

Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (Uo,VT): 11.547 kV : 100 V. The residual voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 × 11.547 kV = 11.547 kV in the primary.

Example 2: Uo is calculated from phase quantities. The phase VT-ratio is 20/sqrt(3) kV : 100/sqrt(3) V. In this case, "Calculated Uo" is selected. The nominal value for residual voltage is obtained from the VT ratios entered in Residual voltage Uo :

Configuration > Analog inputs > Voltage (3U,VT) : 20.000kV : 100V. The residual voltage start value of 1.0 × Un corresponds to 1.0 × 20.000 kV = 20.000 kV in the primary.

In case, if "Calculated Uo" is selected, the residual voltage nominal value is always phase-to-phase voltage. Thus, the valid maximum setting for residual voltage start value is 0.577 × Un. The calculated Uo requires that all three phase-to-earth voltages are connected to the protection relay.

Uo cannot be calculated from the phase-to-phase voltages.

When the residual voltage exceeds the set threshold Voltage start value, an earth fault is detected and the neutral admittance calculation is released.

To ensure a sufficient accuracy for the Io and Uo measurements, it is required that the residual voltage exceeds the value set by Min operate voltage. If the admittance calculation mode is "Delta", the minimum change in the residual voltage due to a fault must be 0.01 × Un to enable the operation. Similarly, the residual current must exceed the value set by Min operate current.

The polarity of the polarizing quantity Uo can be changed, that is, rotated by 180 degrees, by setting the Pol reversal parameter to "True" or by switching the polarity of the residual voltage measurement wires.

As an alternative for the internal residual overvoltage-based start condition, the neutral admittance protection can also be externally released by utilizing the

RELEASE input.

When Admittance Clc mode is set to "Delta", the external logic used must be able to give RELEASE in less than 0.1 s from fault initiation. Otherwise the collected pre-fault values are overwritten with fault time values. If it is slower, Admittance Clc mode must be set to “Normal”.

Neutral admittance is calculated as the quotient between the residual current and residual voltage (polarity reversed) fundamental frequency phasors. The

Admittance Clc mode setting defines the calculation mode.

Traditionally, admittance calculation is done with the calculation mode "Normal", that is, with the current and voltage values directly measured during the fault.

As an alternative, by selecting the calculation mode "Delta", the prefault zerosequence asymmetry of the network can be removed from the admittance calculation. Theoretically, this makes the admittance calculation totally immune to fault resistance, that is, the estimated admittance value is not affected by fault resistance. Utilization of the change in Uo and Io due to a fault in the admittance calculation also mitigates the effects of the VT and CT measurement errors, thus improving the measuring accuracy, the sensitivity and the selectivity of the protection.

Calculation mode "Delta" is recommended in case a high sensitivity of the protection is required, if the network has a high degree of asymmetry during the healthy state or if the residual current measurement is based on sum connection, that is, the Holmgren connection.

with a suitable margin.

Due to inaccuracies in voltage and current measurement, the small real part of the calculated neutral admittance may appear as positive, which brings the measured admittance in the fourth quadrant in the admittance plane. This should be considered when setting the admittance characteristic.

Equation 31 shows that in case of a fault inside the protected feeder in unearthed

networks, the measured admittance equals the admittance of the background network. The admittance is dominantly reactive; the small resistive part of the measured admittance is due to the leakage losses of the background network.

Theoretically, the measured admittance is located in the first quadrant in the

admittance plane, close to the im(Yo) axis, see Figure 215 .

Equation 33 shows that in case of a fault inside the protected feeder in

compensated networks, the measured admittance equals the admittance of the background network and the coil including the parallel resistor. Basically, the compensation degree determines the imaginary part of the measured admittance and the resistive part is due to the parallel resistor of the coil and the leakage losses of the background network and the losses of the coil. Theoretically, the measured admittance is located in the first or fourth quadrant in the admittance plane, depending on the compensation degree, see

Figure 215

.

Before the parallel resistor is connected, the resistive part of the measured admittance is due to the leakage losses of the background network and the losses of the coil. As they are typically small, the resistive part may not be sufficiently large to secure the discrimination of the fault and its direction based on the measured conductance. This and the rating and the operation logic of the parallel resistor should be considered when setting the admittance characteristic in compensated networks.

Equation 35

shows that in case of a fault inside the protected feeder in highresistance earthed systems, the measured admittance equals the admittance of the background network and the neutral earthing resistor.

Figure 215: Admittance calculation during a forward fault

When the network is fully compensated in compensated networks, theoretically during a forward fault, the imaginary part of the measured admittance equals the susceptance of the protected feeder with a negative sign. The discrimination between a forward and reverse fault

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions must therefore be based on the real part of the measured admittance, that is, conductance. Thus, the best selectivity is achieved when the compensated network is operated either in the undercompensated or overcompensated mode.

For example, in a 15 kV compensated network, the magnitude of the earth-fault current of the protected feeder is 10 A (Rf = 0 Ω) and the magnitude of the network is 100 A (Rf = 0 Ω). During an earth fault, a 15 A resistor is connected in parallel to the coil after a 1.0 second delay. Compensation degree is overcompensated, K = 1.1.

During an earth fault in the forward direction, that is, inside the protected feeder, the theoretical value for the measured admittance after the connection of the parallel resistor can be calculated.

Before the parallel resistor is connected, the resistive part of the measured admittance is due to the leakage losses of the background network and the losses of the coil. As they are typically small, the resistive part may not be sufficiently large to secure the discrimination of the fault and its direction based on the measured conductance. This and the rating and the operation logic of the parallel resistor should be considered when setting the admittance characteristic.

When a high sensitivity of the protection is required, the residual current should be measured with a cable/ring core CT, that is, the Ferranti CT.

Also the use of the sensitive Io input should be considered. The residual voltage measurement should be done with an open delta connection of the three single pole-insulated voltage transformers.

The sign of the admittance characteristic settings should be considered based on the location of characteristic boundary in the admittance plane. All forward-settings are given with positive sign and reversesettings with negative sign.

Operation characteristic

After the admittance calculation is released, the calculated neutral admittance is compared to the admittance characteristic boundaries in the admittance plane. If the calculated neutral admittance Yo moves outside the characteristic, the enabling signal is sent to the timer.

EFPADM supports a wide range of different characteristics to achieve the maximum flexibility and sensitivity in different applications. The basic characteristic shape is selected with the Operation mode and Directional mode settings. Operation mode defines which operation criterion or criteria are enabled and Directional mode defines if the forward, reverse or non-directional boundary lines for that particular operation mode are activated.

Timer

Once activated, the timer activates the START output. The time characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the value set with the

Operate delay time setting, the OPERATE output is activated. If the fault disappears before the module operates, the reset timer is activated. If the reset timer reaches the value set with the Reset delay time setting, the operation timer resets and the START output is deactivated. The timer calculates the start duration value

START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operation time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operate timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Neutral admittance characteristics

The applied characteristic should always be set to cover the total admittance of the protected feeder with a suitable margin. However, more detailed setting value selection principles depend on the characteristic in question.

The settings defining the admittance characteristics are given in primary milliSiemens.

The forward and reverse boundary settings should be set so that the forward setting is always larger than the reverse setting and that there is space between them.

Overadmittance characteristic

The overadmittance criterion is enabled with the setting Operation mode set to

"Yo". The characteristic is a circle with the radius defined with the Circle radius setting. For the sake of application flexibility, the midpoint of the circle can be moved away from the origin with the Circle conductance and Circle susceptance settings. Default values for Circle conductance and Circle susceptance are 0.0 mS, that is, the characteristic is an origin-centered circle.

Operation is achieved when the measured admittance moves outside the circle.

The overadmittance criterion is typically applied in unearthed networks, but it can also be used in compensated networks, especially if the circle is set off from the origin.

Non-directional overconductance characteristic

The non-directional overconductance criterion is enabled with the Operation mode setting set to "Go" and Directional mode to "Non-directional". The characteristic is defined with two overconductance boundary lines with the Conductance forward and Conductance reverse settings. For the sake of application flexibility, the boundary lines can be tilted by the angle defined with the Conductance tilt Ang setting. By default, the tilt angle is zero degrees, that is, the boundary line is a vertical line in the admittance plane. A positive tilt value rotates the boundary line counterclockwise from the vertical axis.

In case of non-directional conductance criterion, the Conductance reverse setting must be set to a smaller value than Conductance forward.

Operation is achieved when the measured admittance moves over either of the boundary lines.

The non-directional overconductance criterion is applicable in highresistance earthed and compensated networks. It must not be applied in unearthed networks.

A positive tilt value rotates the boundary line counterclockwise from the vertical axis.

Operation is achieved when the measured admittance moves over the boundary line.

The forward directional overconductance criterion is applicable in highresistance earthed and compensated networks. It must not be applied in unearthed networks.

For the sake of application flexibility, the boundary line can be tilted by the angle defined with the Susceptance tilt Ang setting. By default, the tilt angle is zero degrees, that is, the boundary line is a horizontal line in the admittance plane. A positive tilt value rotates the boundary line counterclockwise from the horizontal axis.

Combined overadmittance and overconductance characteristic

The combined overadmittance and overconductance criterion is enabled with the

Operation mode setting set to "Yo, Go" and Directional mode to "Non-directional".

The characteristic is a combination of a circle with the radius defined with the

Circle radius setting and two overconductance boundary lines with the settings

Conductance forward and Conductance reverse. For the sake of application flexibility, the midpoint of the circle can be moved from the origin with the Circle conductance and Circle susceptance settings. Also the boundary lines can be tilted by the angle defined with the Conductance tilt Ang setting. By default, the Circle conductance and Circle susceptance are 0.0 mS and Conductance tilt Ang equals zero degrees, that is, the characteristic is a combination of an origin-centered circle with two vertical overconductance boundary lines. A positive tilt value for the Conductance tilt Ang setting rotates boundary lines counterclockwise from the vertical axis.

In case of the non-directional conductance criterion, the Conductance reverse setting must be set to a smaller value than Conductance forward.

Operation is achieved when the measured admittance moves outside the characteristic.

The combined overadmittance and overconductance criterion is applicable in unearthed, high-resistance earthed and compensated networks or in systems where the system earthing may temporarily change during normal operation from compensated network to unearthed system.

Compared to the overadmittance criterion, the combined characteristic improves sensitivity in high-resistance earthed and compensated networks. Compared to the non-directional overconductance criterion, the combined characteristic enables the protection to be applied also in unearthed systems.

By setting Directional mode to "Forward", the characteristic is a combination of two boundary lines with the settings Conductance forward and Susceptance forward.

See

By setting Directional mode to "Non-directional", the characteristic is a combination of four boundary lines with the settings Conductance forward, Conductance

For the sake of application flexibility, the boundary lines can be tilted by the angle defined with the Conductance tilt Ang and Susceptance tilt Ang settings. By default, the tilt angles are zero degrees, that is, the boundary lines are straight lines in the admittance plane. A positive Conductance tilt Ang value rotates the overconductance boundary line counterclockwise from the vertical axis. A positive Susceptance tilt Ang value rotates the oversusceptance boundary line counterclockwise from the horizontal axis.

In case of the non-directional conductance and susceptance criteria, the

Conductance reverse setting must be set to a smaller value than Conductance forward and the Susceptance reverse setting must be set to a smaller value than

Susceptance forward.

Operation is achieved when the measured admittance moves outside the characteristic.

The combined overconductance and oversusceptance criterion is applicable in high-resistance earthed, unearthed and compensated networks or in the systems where the system earthing may temporarily change during normal operation from compensated to unearthed system.

Application

Admittance-based earth-fault protection provides a selective earth-fault protection for high-resistance earthed, unearthed and compensated networks. It can be applied for the protection of overhead lines as well as with underground cables.

It can be used as an alternative solution to traditional residual current-based earth-fault protection functions, for example the IoCos mode in DEFxPDEF. Main advantages of EFPADM include versatile applicability, good sensitivity and easy setting principles.

Residual overvoltage condition is used as a start condition for the admittancebased earth-fault protection. When the residual voltage exceeds the set threshold

Voltage start value, an earth fault is detected and the neutral admittance calculation is released. In order to guarantee a high security of protection, that is, avoid false starts, the Voltage start value setting must be set above the highest possible value of Uo during normal operation with a proper margin. It should consider all possible operation conditions and configuration changes in the network. In unearthed systems, the healthy-state Uo is typically less than

1%×Uph (Uph = nominal phase-to-earth voltage). In compensated networks, the healthy-state Uo may reach values even up to 30%×Uph if the network includes large parts of overheadlines without a phase transposition. Generally, the highest

Uo is achieved when the compensation coil is tuned to the full resonance and when the parallel resistor of the coil is not connected.

The residual overvoltage-based start condition for the admittance protection enables a multistage protection principle. For example, one instance of EFPADM could be used for alarming to detect faults with a high fault resistance using a relatively low value for the Voltage start value setting. Another instance of EFPADM could then be set to trip with a lower sensitivity by selecting a higher value of the

Voltage start value setting than in the alarming instance (stage).

To apply the admittance-based earth-fault protection, at least the following network data are required:

• System earthing method

• Maximum value for Uo during the healthy state

• Maximum earth-fault current of the protected feeder when the fault resistance

Rf is zero ohm

• Maximum uncompensated earth-fault current of the system (Rf = 0 Ω)

• Rated current of the parallel resistor of the coil (active current forcing scheme) in the case of a compensated neutral network

• Rated current of the neutral earthing resistor in the case of a high-resistance earthed system

• Knowledge of the magnitude of Uo as a function of the fault resistance to verify the sensitivity of the protection in terms of fault resistance

Figure 226

shows the influence of fault resistance on the residual voltage magnitude in unearthed and compensated networks. Such information should be available to verify the correct Voltage start value setting, which helps fulfill the requirements for the sensitivity of the protection in terms of fault resistance.

Example

In a 15 kV, 50 Hz compensated network, the maximum value for Uo during the healthy state is 10%×Uph. Maximum earth-fault current of the system is

100 A. The maximum earth-fault current of the protected feeder is 10 A (Rf

= 0 Ω). The applied active current forcing scheme uses a 15 A resistor (at

15 kV), which is connected in parallel to the coil during the fault after a 1.0

second delay.

Solution: As a start condition for the admittance-based earth-fault protection, the internal residual overvoltage condition of EFPADM is used.

The Voltage start value setting must be set above the maximum healthystate Uo of 10%×Uph with a suitable margin.

According to Figure 227 , this selection ensures at least a sensitivity

corresponding to a 2000 ohm fault resistance when the compensation degree varies between 80% and 120%. The greatest sensitivity is achieved when the compensation degree is close to full resonance.

The admittance characteristic is selected to be the combined overconductance and oversusceptance characteristic ("Box"-characteristics) with four boundary lines:

Operation mode = "Go, Bo"

Directional mode = "Non-directional"

The admittance characteristic is set to cover the total admittance of the

protected feeder with a proper margin, see Figure 229

. Different setting groups can be used to allow adaptation of protection settings to different feeder and network configurations.

Conductance forward

This setting should be set based on the parallel resistor value of the coil. It must be set to a lower value than the conductance of the parallel resistor, in order to enable dependable operation. The selected value should move the boundary line

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions from origin to include some margin for the admittance operation point due to

CT/VT-errors, when fault is located outside the feeder.

Conductance forward: 15 A/(15 kV/sqrt(3)) * 0.2 = +0.35 mS corresponding to 3.0

A (at 15 kV). The selected value provides margin considering also the effect of

CT/VT-errors in case of outside faults.

In case of smaller rated value of the parallel resistor, for example, 5 A (at 15 kV), the recommended security margin should be larger, for example 0.7, so that sufficient margin for CT/VT-errors can be achieved.

Susceptance forward

By default, this setting should be based on the minimum operate current of 1 A.

Susceptance forward: 1 A/(15 kV/sqrt(3)) = +0.1 mS

Susceptance reverse

This setting should be set based on the value of the maximum earth-fault current produced by the feeder (considering possible feeder topology changes) with a security margin. This ensures that the admittance operating point stays inside the "Box"-characteristics during outside fault. The recommended security margin should not be lower than 1.5.

Susceptance reverse: - (10 A * 1.5)/ (15 kV/sqrt(3)) = -1.73 mS

Conductance reverse

This setting is used to complete the non-directional characteristics by closing the

"Box"-characteristic. In order to keep the shape of the characteristic reasonable and to allow sufficient margin for the admittance operating point during outside fault, it is recommended to use the same value as for setting Susceptance reverse.

Conductance reverse = -1.73 mS

Functionality

The rotor earth-fault protection function MREFPTOC is used to detect an earth fault in the rotor circuit of synchronous machines. MREFPTOC is used with the injection device REK510, which requires a secured 58, 100 or 230 V AC 50/60 Hz input source and injects a 100 V AC voltage via its coupling capacitors to the rotor circuit towards earth.

MREFPTOC consists of independent alarm and operating stages. The operating time characteristic is according to definite time (DT) for both stages.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of MREFPTOC can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Level detector 1

The measured rotor earth-fault current (DFT value) is compared to the Operate start value setting. If the measured value exceeds that of the Operate start value setting, Level detector 1 sends a signal to start the Timer 1 module.

Level detector 2

The measured rotor earth-fault current (DFT value) is compared to the set Alarm start value. If the measured value exceeds that of the Alarm start value setting,

Level detector 2 sends a signal to start the Timer 2 module.

For MREFPTOC, the earth-fault current is the current that flows due to the voltage injected by the injection device in the rotor circuit when an earth fault arises.

A considerable amount of harmonics, mainly 3rd and 6th, can occur in the excitation current under normal no-fault conditions, especially with the thyristor excitation and rotating diode rectifier systems. MREFPTOC uses DFT value calculation to filter DC and harmonic components which could otherwise give out false alarms or trips.

Timer 1

Once activated, the Timer activates the START output. The timer characteristic is according to DT. When the operation timer has reached the value set by Operate delay time in the DT mode, the OPERATE output is activated. If a drop-off situation occurs, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operating delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting.

The binary input BLOCK can be used to block the function. The activation of the

BLOCK input deactivates all outputs and resets the internal timers.

Timer 2

Once activated, the Timer activates the alarm timer. The timer characteristic is according to DT. When the alarm timer has reached the value set by Alarm delay time in the DT mode, the ALARM output is activated. If a drop-off situation occurs, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the alarm delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The reset time depends on the Alm reset delay time setting.

The binary input BLOCK can be used to block the function. The activation of the

BLOCK input deactivates all outputs and resets the internal timers.

Application

The rotor circuit of synchronous machines is normally isolated from the earth.

The rotor circuit can be exposed to an abnormal mechanical or thermal stress due to, for example, vibrations, overcurrent and choked cooling medium flow. This can result in the breakdown of the insulation between the field winding and the rotor iron at the point exposed to excessive stress. If the isolation resistance is decreased significantly, this can be seen as an earth fault. For generators with slip rings, the rotor insulation resistance is sometimes reduced due to the accumulated carbon dust layer produced by the carbon brushes. As the circuit has a high impedance to earth, a single earth fault does not lead to any immediate damage because the fault current is small due to a low voltage. There is, however, a risk that a second earth fault appears, creating a rotor winding interturn fault and causing

620 series

Technical Manual

1MRS757644 H Protection functions severe magnetic imbalance and heavy rotor vibrations that soon lead to a severe damage.

Therefore, it is essential that any occurrence of an insulation failure is detected and that the machine is disconnected as soon as possible. Normally, the device is tripped after a short time delay.

A 50/60 Hz voltage is injected via the injection device REK 510 to the rotor field winding circuit of the synchronous machine as shown in

Figure 232 . The injected

voltage is 100 V AC via the coupling capacitors. A coupling capacitor prevents a DC current leakage through the injection device.

An example of the measured curves with various field-to-earth leakage capacitance values is given in

Figure 233

.

It is recommended that the alarm and operation stages of MREFPTOC are both used. The alarm stage for giving an indication for weakly developed earth faults with a start value setting corresponds to a 10 kΩ fault resistance with a 10-second delay. The operation stage for a protection against fully developed earth faults with a start value setting corresponds to a 1...2 kΩ fault resistance with a 0.5-second delay.

The current setting values corresponding to the required operating fault resistances can be tested by connecting an adjustable faultsimulating resistor between the excitation winding poles and the earth. Whether only one of the coupling capacitors or both should be used in a parallel connection should be determined on a case-by-case basis, taking into consideration the consequences of a possibly excessive current at a direct earth fault.

By default, HAEFPTOC is used as a standalone mode. Substation-wide application can be achieved using horizontal communication where the detection of a faulty feeder is done by comparing the harmonics earth-fault current measurements.

The function starts when the harmonics content of the earth-fault current exceeds the set limit. The operation time characteristic is either definite time (DT) or inverse definite minimum time (IDMT). If the horizontal communication is used for the exchange of current values between the protection relays, the function operates according to the DT characteristic.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timer or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of HAEFPTOC can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the next sections.

Harmonics calculation

This module feeds the measured residual current to the high-pass filter, where the frequency range is limited to start from two times the fundamental frequency of the network (for example, in a 50 Hz network the cutoff frequency is 100 Hz), that is, summing the harmonic components of the network from the second harmonic.

The output of the filter, later referred to as the harmonics current, is fed to the Level detector and Current comparison modules.

Level detector

The harmonics current is compared to the Start value setting. If the value exceeds the value of the Start value setting, Level detector sends an enabling signal to the

Timer module.

Current comparison

The maximum of the harmonics currents reported by other parallel feeders in the substation, that is, in the same busbar, is fed to the function through the I_REF_RES input. If the locally measured harmonics current is higher than

I_REF_RES , the enabling signal is sent to Timer.

If the locally measured harmonics current is lower than I_REF_RES , the fault is not in that feeder. The detected situation blocks Timer internally, and simultaneously also the BLKD_I_REF output is activated.

The module also supervises the communication channel validity which is reported to the Timer.

The START output is activated when Level detector sends the enabling signal.

Functionality and the time characteristics depend on the selected value of the

Functionality

In the standalone mode, depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of the Operate delay time setting in the DT mode or the value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated.

Communication valid

When using the horizontal communication, the function is forced to use the DT characteristics.

When the operation timer has reached the value of the Minimum operate time setting and simultaneously the enabling signal from the Current comparison module is active, the OPERATE signal is activated.

Communication invalid

Function operates as in the standalone mode.

The Enable reference use setting forces the function to use the DT characteristics where the operating time is set with the Minimum operate time setting.

If the communication for some reason fails, the function switches to use the

Operation curve type setting, and if DT is selected, Operate delay time is used. If the

IDMT curve is selected, the time characteristics are according to the selected curve and the Minimum operate time setting is used for restricting too fast an operation time.

In case of a communication failure, the start duration may change substantially depending on the user settings.

When the programmable IDMT curve is selected, the operation time characteristics are defined with the Curve parameter A, Curve parameter B, Curve parameter C,

Curve parameter D and Curve parameter E parameters.

If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operation delay is exceeded, the Timer reset state is activated. The functionality of Timer in the reset state depends on the combination of the Operating curve type, Type of reset curve and Reset delay time settings. When the DT characteristic is selected, the reset timer runs until the value of the Reset delay time setting is exceeded. When the IDMT curves are selected, the Type of reset curve setting can be set to "Immediate", "Def time reset" or "Inverse reset". The reset curve type

"Immediate" causes an immediate reset. With the reset curve type "Def time reset", the reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting. With the reset curve type

"Inverse reset", the reset time depends on the current during the drop-off situation.

If the drop-off situation continues, the reset timer is reset and the START output is deactivated.

The "Inverse reset" selection is only supported with ANSI or the programmable types of the IDMT operating curves. If another operating curve type is selected, an immediate reset occurs during the drop-off situation.

The setting Time multiplier is used for scaling the IDMT operation and reset times.

The setting parameter Minimum operate time defines the minimum desired operation time for IDMT. The setting is applicable only when the IDMT curves are used

The Minimum operate time setting should be used with great care because the operation time is according to the IDMT curve but always at least the value of the Minimum operate time setting. More information

can be found in Chapter 11.2.1 IDMT curves for overcurrent protection .

Timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation, and the set operating time, which can be either according to DT or IDMT. The value is available in the monitored data view.

More information can be found in Chapter 11 General function block features .

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Application

During an earth fault, HAEFPTOC calculates the maximum current for the current feeder. The value is sent over an analog GOOSE to other protection relays of the busbar in the substation. At the configuration level, all the values received over the analog GOOSE are compared through the MAX function to find the maximum value. The maximum value is sent back to HAEFPTOC as the I_REF_RES input. The operation of HAEFPTOC is allowed in case I_REF_RES is lower than the locally measured harmonics current. If I_REF_RES exceeds the locally measured harmonics current, the operation of HAEFPTOC is blocked.

Functionality

The wattmetric-based earth-fault protection function WPWDE can be used to detect earth faults in unearthed networks, compensated networks (Petersen coilearthed networks) or networks with a high-impedance earthing. It can be used as an alternative solution to the traditional residual current-based earth-fault protection functions, for example, the IoCos mode in the directional earth-fault protection function DEFxPDEF.

WPWDE measures the earth-fault power 3UoIoCosφ and gives an operating signal when the residual current Io, residual voltage Uo and the earth-fault power exceed the set limits and the angle (φ) between the residual current and the residual voltage is inside the set operating sector, that is, forward or backward sector. The operating time characteristic can be selected to be either definite time (DT) or a special wattmetric-type inverse definite minimum type (wattmetric type IDMT).

The wattmetric-based earth-fault protection is very sensitive to current transformer errors and it is recommended that a core balance CT is used for measuring the residual current.

The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block function outputs, timers or the function itself, if desired.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

For WPWDE, certain notations and definitions are used.

Directional calculation

The Directional calculation module monitors the angle between the operating quantity (residual current Io) and polarizing quantity (residual voltage Uo). The operating quantity can be selected with the setting Io signal Sel. The selectable options are “Measured Io” and “Calculated Io”. The polarizing quantity can be selected with the setting Pol signal Sel. The selectable options are “Measured Uo” and “Calculated Uo”. When the angle between operating quantity and polarizing quantity after considering the Characteristic angle setting is in the operation sector, the module sends an enabling signal to Level detector. The directional operation is selected with the Directional mode setting. Either the “Forward” or

“Reverse” operation mode can be selected. The direction of fault is calculated based on the phase angle difference between the operating quantity Io and polarizing quantity Uo, and the value (ANGLE) is available in the monitored data view.

In the phasor diagrams representing the operation of WPWDE, the polarity of the polarizing quantity (residual voltage Uo) is reversed. Reversing is done by switching the polarity of the residual current measuring channel (See the connection diagram in the application manual).

If the angle difference lies between -90° to 0° or 0° to +90°, a forward-direction fault is considered. If the phase angle difference lies within -90° to -180° or +90° to +180°, a reverse-direction fault is detected. Thus, the normal width of a sector is 180°.

Figure 240: Definition of the relay characteristic angle

The phase angle difference is calculated based on the Characteristic angle setting

(also known as Relay Characteristic Angle (RCA) or Relay Base Angle or Maximum

Torque Angle (MTA)). The Characteristic angle setting is done based on the method of earthing employed in the network. For example, in case of an unearthed network, the Characteristic angle setting is set to -90°, and in case of a compensated network, the Characteristic angle setting is set to 0°. In general, Characteristic angle is selected so that it is close to the expected fault angle value, which results in maximum sensitivity. Characteristic angle can be set anywhere between -179° to +180°. Thus, the effective phase angle ( ϕ ) for calculating the residual power considering characteristic angle is according to the equation.

φ ( Uo ) − ∠ Io Characteristic angle )

(Equation 44)

In addition, the characteristic angle can be changed via the control signal RCA_CTL .

The RCA_CTL input is used in the compensated networks where the compensation coil sometimes is temporarily disconnected. When the coil is disconnected, the compensated network becomes isolated and the Characteristic angle setting must be changed. This can be done automatically with the RCA_CTL input, which results in the addition of -90° in the Characteristic angle setting.

The value (ANGLE_RCA) is available in the monitored data view.

In unearthed networks, when the characteristic angle is -90°, the measured residual power is reactive (varmetric power).

The fault direction is also indicated FAULT_DIR (available in the monitored data view), which indicates 0 if a fault is not detected, 1 for faults in the forward direction and 2 for faults in the backward direction.

The direction of the fault is detected only when the correct angle calculation can be made. If the magnitude of the operating quantity or polarizing quantity is not high enough, the direction calculation is not reliable. Hence, the magnitude of the operating quantity is compared to the Min operate current setting and the magnitude of the polarizing quantity is compared to Min operate voltage, and if both the operating quantity and polarizing quantity are higher than their respective limit, a valid angle is calculated and the residual power calculation module is enabled.

The Correction angle setting can be used to improve the selectivity when there are inaccuracies due to the measurement transformer. The setting decreases the operation sector. The Correction angle setting should be done carefully as the phase angle error of the measurement transformer varies with the connected burden as well as with the magnitude of the actual primary current that is being measured. An example of how Correction angle alters the operating region is as shown:

The polarity of the polarizing quantity can be changed (rotated by 180°) by setting Pol reversal to "True" or by switching the polarity of the residual voltage measurement wires.

Residual power calculation

The Residual power calculation module calculates the magnitude of residual power

3UoIoCosφ. Angle φ is the angle between the operating quantity and polarizing quantity, compensated with a characteristic angle. The angle value is received from the Directional calculation module. The Directional calculation module enables the residual power calculation only if the minimum signal levels for both operating quantity and polarizing quantity are exceeded. However, if the angle calculation is not valid, the calculated residual power is zero. Residual power (RES_POWER) is calculated continuously and it is available in the monitored data view. The power is given in relation to nominal power calculated as Pn = Un × In, where Un and In are obtained from the entered voltage transformer and current transformer ratios entered, and depend on the Io signal Sel and Uo signal Sel settings.

Level detector

Level detector compares the magnitudes of the measured operating quantity

(residual current Io), polarizing quantity (residual voltage Uo) and calculated residual power to the set Current start value (×In), Voltage start value (×Un) and

Power start value (×Pn) respectively. When all three quantities exceed the limits,

Level detector enables the Timer module.

When calculating the setting values for Level detector, it must be considered that the nominal values for current, voltage and power depend on whether the residual quantities are measured from a dedicated measurement channel or calculated from phase quantities, as defined in the Io signal Sel and Uo signal Sel settings.

For residual current Io, if "Measured Io" is selected, the nominal values for primary and secondary are obtained from the current transformer ratio entered for residual

Calculated Uo requires that all three phase-to-earth voltages are connected to the protection relay. Uo cannot be calculated from the phase-to-phase voltages.

As nominal power is the result of the multiplication of the nominal current and the nominal voltage Pn = Un × In, the calculation of the setting value for Power start value (×Pn) depends on whether Io and Uo are measured or calculated from the phase quantities.

Example 1. Io is measured with cable core CT (100/1A) and Uo is measured from open delta-connected VTs (20/sqrt(3) kV:100/sqrt(3) V:100/3 V). In this case,

If "Calculated Uo" is selected for the Uo signal Sel setting, the nominal value for residual voltage Un is always phase-to-phase voltage. Thus, the valid maximum setting for residual Voltage start value is 0.577 × Un, which corresponds to full phase-to-earth voltage in primary.

Timer

Once activated, Timer activates the START output. Depending on the value of the Operating curve type setting, the time characteristics are according to DT or wattmetric IDMT. When the operation timer has reached the value of Operate delay time in the DT mode or the maximum value defined by the inverse time curve, the OPERATE output is activated. If a drop-off situation happens, that is, a fault suddenly disappears before the operating delay is exceeded, the timer reset state is activated. The reset time is identical for both DT or wattmeter IDMT. The reset time depends on the Reset delay time setting.

Timer calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operation time. The value is available in the monitored data view.

Blocking logic

There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes are controlled by the BLOCK input and the global setting in Configuration >

System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The BLOCK input can be controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is preselected with the global setting Blocking mode.

The Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers" mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the OPERATE output is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode, the function operates normally but the OPERATE output is not activated.

Figure 244: Characteristics of wattmetric protection

In a fully compensated radial network with two outgoing feeders, the earth-fault currents depend mostly on the system earth capacitances (C

0

) of the lines and the compensation coil (L). If the coil is tuned exactly to the system capacitance, the fault current has only a resistive component. This is due to the resistances of the coil and distribution lines together with the system leakage resistances (R

). Often

) in parallel with the coil is used for increasing the fault current.

When a single phase-to-earth fault occurs, the capacitance of the faulty phase is bypassed and the system becomes unsymmetrical. The fault current is composed of the currents flowing through the earth capacitances of two healthy phases. The protection relay in the healthy feeder tracks only the capacitive current flowing through its earth capacitances. The capacitive current of the complete network

(sum of all feeders) is compensated with the coil.

Figure 245: Typical radial compensated network employed with wattmetric protection

The wattmetric function is activated when the residual active power component exceeds the set limit. However, to ensure a selective operation, it is also required that the residual current and residual voltage also exceed the set limit.

It is highly recommended that core balance current transformers are used for measuring Io when using the wattmetric method. When a low transformation ratio is used, the current transformer can suffer accuracy problems and even a distorted secondary current waveform with some core balance current transformers.

Therefore, to ensure a sufficient accuracy of the residual current measurement and consequently a better selectivity of the scheme, the core balance current transformer should preferably have a transformation ratio of at least 70:1. Lower transformation ratios such as 50:1 or 50:5 are not recommended, unless the phase displacement errors and current transformer amplitude are checked first.

It is not recommended to use the directional wattmetric protection in case of a ring or meshed system as the wattmetric requires a radial power flow to operate.

The relay characteristic angle needs to be set based on the system earthing. In an unearthed network, that is, when the network is only coupled to earth via the capacitances between the phase conductors and earth, the characteristic angle is chosen as -90°.

In compensated networks, the capacitive fault current and inductive resonance coil current compensate each other, meaning that the fault current is mainly resistive and has zero phase shift compared to the residual voltage. In such networks, the characteristic angle is chosen as 0°. Often the magnitude of an active component is small and must be increased by means of a parallel resistor in a compensation coil. In networks where the neutral point is earthed through a low resistance, the characteristic angle is always 0°.

As the amplitude of the residual current is independent of the fault location, the selectivity of the earth-fault protection is achieved with time coordination.

The use of wattmetric protection gives a possibility to use the dedicated inverse definite minimum time characteristics. This is applicable in large high-impedance earthed networks with a large capacitive earth-fault current.

In a network employing a low-impedance earthed system, a medium-size neutral point resistor is used. Such a resistor gives a resistive earth-fault current component of about 200...400 A for an excessive earth fault. In such a system, the directional residual power protection gives better possibilities for selectivity enabled by the inverse time power characteristics.

Functionality

The multifrequency admittance-based earth-fault protection function MFADPSDE provides selective directional earth-fault protection for high-impedance earthed networks, that is, for compensated, unearthed and high resistance earthed systems. It can be applied for the earth-fault protection of overhead lines and underground cables.

The operation of MFADPSDE is based on multifrequency neutral admittance measurement, utilizing cumulative phasor summing technique. This concept provides extremely secure, dependable and selective earth-fault protection also in cases where the residual quantities are highly distorted and contain nonfundamental frequency components.

The sensitivity that can be achieved is comparable with traditional fundamental frequency based methods such as IoCos/IoSin (DEFxPDEF), Watt/Varmetric

(WPWDE) and neutral admittance (EFPADM).

MFADPSDE is capable of detecting faults with dominantly fundamental frequency content as well as transient, intermittent and restriking earth faults. MFADPSDE can be used as an alternative solution to transient or intermittent function INTRPTEF.

MFADPSDE supports fault direction indication both in operate and non-operate direction, which may be utilized during fault location process. The inbuilt transient detector can be used to identify restriking or intermittent earth faults, and discriminate them from permanent or continuous earth faults.

The operation characteristic is defined by a tilted operation sector, which is universally valid for unearthed and compensated networks.

The operating time characteristic is according to the definite time (DT).

The function contains a blocking functionality to block function outputs, timers or the function itself.

Operation principle

The function can be enabled and disabled with the Operation setting. The corresponding parameter values are "On" and "Off".

The operation of MFADPSDE can be described using a module diagram. All the modules in the diagram are explained in the following sections.

General fault criterion

The General fault criterion ( GFC) module monitors the presence of earth fault in the network and it is based on the value of the fundamental frequency zero-sequence voltage defined as the vector sum of fundamental frequency phase voltage phasors divided by three.
