The SIPROTEC Compact series has been especially conceived

for the requirements of the medium-voltage and industrial
sector, but it can of course also be used for other applications
such as high-voltage switchgear, for example.
The outstanding feature of the SIPROTEC Compact series
is the compact design offering, at the same time, a high
functional density and user friendliness. In the development
of the SIPROTEC Compact series we have integrated our
experience from more than 100 years of protection systems,
the proven functions of SIPROTEC 4, and many customer
suggestions.
The Compact series fits perfectly into the SIPROTEC concept,

Introduction
SIPROTEC device series
Solutions for todays and future power supply systems
for more than 100 years
SIPROTEC has established itself on the energy market for

decades as a powerful and complete system family of
numerical protection relays and bay controllers from
Siemens.
As the innovation driver and trendsetter in the field of

protection systems for more than 100 years, Siemens helps
system operators to design their grids in an intelligent,
ecological, reliable and efficient way, and to operate
them economically. As a pioneer, Siemens has decisively
influenced the development of numerical protection
systems (Fig. 1/5). The first application went into operation
in Wrzburg, Germany, in 1977. Consistent integration of
protection and control functions for all SIPROTEC devices
was the innovation step in the 90ies. After release of the
communication standard IEC 61850 in the year 2004, Siemens was the first manufacturer worldwide to put a system
with this communication standard into operation. In the
meantime we have delivered more than 300,000 devices
with IEC 61850 included.
LSP3.01-0003.eps
SIPROTEC protection relays from Siemens can be consistently used throughout all applications in medium and high
voltage. With SIPROTEC, operators have their systems firmly
and safely under control, and have the basis to implement
cost-efficient solutions for all duties in modern, intelligent
and smart grids. Users can combine the units of the
different SIPROTEC device series at will for solving manifold
duties because SIPROTEC stands for continuity, openness
and future-proof design.

Field devices in energy distribution systems and in industrial

applications must cover the most varying tasks, and yet be
adjustable easily and at short notice. These tasks comprise,
for example:
Protection of different operational equipment such as
lines, cables, motors and busbars
Decoupling and disconnecting of parts of the power

supply system
Load shedding and load restoration
Voltage and frequency protection
Local or remote control of circuit-breakers
Acquisition and recording of measured values and events

Communication with neighboring devices or the control
center.
Fig.2/1 shows exemplary how the most different tasks can

be easily and safely solved with the matching
SIPROTECCompact devices.
Operation
During the development of SIPROTECCompact, special value
was placed not only on a powerful functionality, but also on
simple and intuitive operation by the operating personnel.
Freely assignable LEDs and a six-line display guarantee an
unambiguous and clear indication of the process states.
In conjunction with up to 9 function keys and the control
keys for the operational equipment, the operating personnel
can react quickly and safely to every situation. This ensures
a high operational reliability even under stress situations,
thus reducing the training effort considerably.

Control
Assignment of feedback to command
In addition to the protection functions, SIPROTEC Compact

units also support all control and monitoring functions
that are required for operating medium-voltage or highvoltage substations. The status of primary equipment or
auxiliary devices can be obtained from auxiliary contacts
and communicated to the unit via binary inputs. Therefore it
is possible to detect and indicate both the OPEN and CLOSED
position or a fault or intermediate circuit-breaker or auxiliary
contact position.
The positions of the circuit-breaker or switching devices

and transformer taps are acquired through feedback. These
indication inputs are logically assigned to the corresponding
command outputs. The unit can therefore distinguish whether the indication change is a result of switching operation
or whether it is an undesired spontaneous change of state.
The switchgear or circuit-breaker can be controlled via:

integrated operator panel
binary inputs
substation control and protection system
DIGSI 4.

Chatter disable
The chatter disable feature evaluates whether, in a set period of time, the number of status changes of indication input
exceeds a specified number. If exceeded, the indication
input is blocked for a certain period, so that the event list
will not record excessive operations.
Indication filtering and delay
With integrated logic, the user can create, through a graphic

interface (CFC), specific functions for the automation of a
switchgear or a substation. Functions are activated using
function keys, a binary input or through the communication
interface.
Binary indications can be filtered or delayed. Filtering serves

to suppress brief changes in potential at the indication
input. The indication is passed on only if the indication
voltage is still present after a set period of time. In the event
of an indication delay, there is a delay for a preset time. The
information is passed on only if the indication voltage is still
present after this time.
Switching authority
Indication derivation
Switching authority is determined by set parameters or

through communications to the relay. Each switching
operation and switch-position change will be noted in the
operational log. Command source, switching device, cause
(spontaneous change or command) and result of
a switching operation will be stored.
User-definable indications can be derived from individual

or a group of indications. These grouped indications are of
great value to the user that need to minimize the number of
indications sent to the system interface.
Automation / user-defined logic
Command processing
All functionalities of the command processing are available.
This includes the processing of single and double commands
with or without feedback, sophisticated monitoring of the
control hardware and software, checking of the external
process, control actions using functions such as runtime
monitoring and automatic command termination after
output. Here are some typical applications:
Single and double commands using 1, 1 plus 1 common
or 2 trip contacts
User-definable bay interlocks
Operating sequences combining several switching operations, such as control of circuit-breakers, disconnectors
and grounding switches
Triggering of switching operations, indications or alarms
by combination with existing information.

IEC61850 system configurator

The IEC61850 system configurator,
which is started out of the system
manager, is used to determine the
IEC61850 network structure as well as
the extent of data exchange between
the participants of a IEC61850
station. To do this, subnets are added
in the network working area if
required , available participants are
assigned to the subnets, and addressing is defined. The assignment
working area is used to link data
objects between the participants, e.g.,
the starting message of the V /inverse
time-overcurrent protection I > function of feeder1, which is transferred
to the incoming supply in order to
prompt the reverse interlocking of the
V / inverse time-overcurrent protection
I >> function there (see Fig.2/15).

CFC: Projecting the logic instead of
programming
With the CFC (continuous function

chart), it is possible to link and
derive information without software
knowledge by simply drawing technical
processes, interlocks and operating
sequences.
Logical elements such as AND, OR,

timers, etc., as well as limit value requests of measured values are available
(Fig.2/16).
Special attention has been paid to

commissioning. All binary inputs and
outputs can be set and read out in
targeted way. Thus, a very simple
wiring test is possible. Messages can
be sent to the serial interface deliberately for test purposes.

Communication
System interface protocols (retrofittable)
As regards communication, the devices offer high flexibility

for the connection to industrial and energy automation
standards. The concept of the communication modules
running the protocols enables exchangeability and retrofittability. Thus, the devices can also be perfectly adjusted to a
changing communication infrastructure in the future, e.g.,
when Ethernet networks will be increasingly used in the
utilities sector in the years to come.
IEC 61850
The ethernet-based protocol IEC 61850 is established as
a worldwide standard for protection and systems control.
SIPROTEC devices work as IEC 61850 servers and, via
the protocol, they can exchange extensive data with up
to 6 clients (e.g. SICAM PAS or SICAM TM1703) which
are defined in logical nodes in the IEC 61850 Standard
for protection and systems control functions. Static and
dynamic reports are supported. Additionally, fault records
can be transmitted which are stored in the binary Comtrade
format in the device. Switching commands can be executed
in the controlling direction. Data can be transmitted within
few milliseconds between devices via GOOSE messages of
the IEC 61850. This efficient intercommunication between
devices replaces the former parallel wiring through communication connections via the ethernet network.
USB interface
There is a USB interface on the front of the relay. All the
relay functions can be parameterized on PC by using DIGSIprograms. Commissioning tools and fault analysis are built
into the DIGSI program and are used through this interface.
Interfaces
A number of communication modules suitable for various
applications can be fitted at the bottom of the housing.
The modules can be easily replaced by the user. The interface modules support the following applications:
System/service interface
Communication with a central control system takes place
through this interface. Radial or ring type station bus
topologies can be configured depending on the chosen interface. Furthermore, the units can exchange data through
this interface via Ethernet and the IEC 61850 protocol and
can also be accessed using DIGSI. Alternatively, up to 2 external temperature detection devices with max. 12 metering
sensors can be connected to the system/service interface.
5
6
Ethernet interface
The Ethernet interface has been designed for quick access to
several protection devices via DIGSI. In the case of the motor
protection 7SK80, it is possible to connect max. 2 external
temperature detection devices with max. 12 metering
sensors to the Ethernet interface. As for the line differential
protection, the optical interface is located at this interface.
7

10
IEC 61850 is supported in Edition 1 and Edition 2 and the

devices are certified independently in compliance with
IEC 61850 Part 10.
The time synchronization can be made redundantly via
two SNTP timers which are integrated in the IEC 61850
engineering.
In addition to the IEC 61850 protocol, further protocols are
available on the ethernet module. They can be activated and
deactivated through DIGSI 4 so that safety requirements are
fulfilled. The devices can be accessed completely with DIGSI 4
via the ethernet network with the ethernet module. Diagnostic pages of the module can be accessed via a browser,
e.g. for supporting the commissioning. The device can be
integrated into a network monitoring system via SNMP V2
which allows monitoring permanently the behavior of the
device in the network. The network redundancy protocols
RSTP and HSR which are integrated on the ethernet module
permit the construction of economical ring structures.
Interruption-free redundancy can be achieved via parallel
networks with PRP.

Communication
IEC 60870-5-103
The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is an international standard
for the transmission of protective data and fault recordings.
All messages from the unit and also control commands can
be transferred by means of published, Siemens-specific
extensions to the protocol.
Optionally, a redundant IEC 60870-5-103 module is
available. This redundant module allows to read and change
individual parameters.
IEC 60870-5-104
The IEC 60870-5-104 substation and power system
automation protocol is supported via the electrical and
optical Ethernet module. Indications (single and double),
measured values, metered values can be transmitted to one
or two (redundant) masters. IEC 104 file transfer is also
supported and fault recordings can be read out of the device
in Comtrade format. In the command direction, secured
switching of switching objects is possible via the protocol.
Time synchronization can be supported via the
IEC 60870-5-104 master or via SNTP across the network. Redundant time servers are supported. All auxiliary services on
Ethernet such as the DIGSI 5 protocol, network redundancy,
or SNMP for network monitoring can be activated concurrently with IEC 60870-5-104. Moreover, GOOSE messages of
IEC 61850 can be exchanged between devices.
PROFIBUS-DP
PROFIBUS-DP is a widespread protocol in industrial automation. Through PROFIBUS-DP, SIPROTEC units make their
information available to a SIMATIC controller or receive commands from a central SIMATIC controller or PLC. Measured
values can also be transferred to a PLC master.
MODBUS RTU
This simple, serial protocol is mainly used in industry and
by power utilities, and is supported by a number of relay
manufacturers. SIPROTEC units function as MODBUS slaves,
making their information available to a master or receiving
information from it. A time-stamped event list is available.
DNP 3.0 protocol
Power utilities use the serial DNP 3.0 (Distributed Network
Protocol) for the station and network control levels.
SIPROTEC units function as DNP slaves, supplying their information to a master system or receiving information from it.
zation is performed via the DNPi client or SNTP. The device

can also be integrated into a network monitoring system via
the SNMP V2 protocol.
Parallel to the DNP3 TCP protocol the IEC 61850 protocol

(the device works as a server) and the GOOSE messages
of the IEC 61850 are available for the intercommunication
between devices.
PROFINET
PROFINET is the ethernet-based successor of Profibus DP
and is supported in the variant PROFINET IO. The protocol
which is used in industry together with the SIMATIC systems
control is realized on the optical and electrical Plus ethernet
modules which are delivered from November 2012. All
network redundancy procedures which are available for
the ethernet modules, such as RSTP, PRP or HSR, are also
available for PROFINET. The time synchronization is made
via SNTP. The network monitoring is possible via SNMP V2
where special MIB files exist for PROFINET. The LLDP protocol
of the device also supports the monitoring of the network
topology. Single-point indications, double-point indications,
measured and metered values can be transmitted cyclically
in the monitoring direction via the protocol and can be
selected by the user with DIGSI 4. Important events are also
transmitted spontaneously via configurable process alarms.
Switching commands can be executed by the system control
via the device in the controlling direction.
3

5
The PROFINET implementation is certified.

The device also supports the IEC 61850 protocol as a server
on the same ethernet module in addition to the PROFINET
protocol. Client server connections are possible for the
intercommunication between devices, e.g. for transmitting
fault records and GOOSE messages.
Redundancy protocols for Ethernet (RSTP, PRP and HSR
SIPROTEC Compact supports the redundancy protocols RSTP,

PRP and HSR. These protocols can be loaded and activated
easily via software on the existing optical Ethernet modules.
PRP and HSR guarantee a redundant, uninterruptible and
seamless data transfer in Ethernet networks without extensive parameter settings in the switches.

DNP3 TCP
The ethernet-based TCP variant of the DNP3 protocol is
supported with the electrical and optical ethernet module.
Two DNP3 TCP clients are supported.
Redundant ring structures can be realized for DNP3 TCP
with the help of the integrated switch in the module. For
instance, a redundant optical ethernet ring can be constructed. Single-point indications, double-point indications, measured and metered values can be configured with DIGSI 4
and are transmitted to the DNPi client. Switching commands
can be executed in the controlling direction. Fault records of
the device are stored in the binary Comtrade format and can
be retrieved via the DNP 3 file transfer. The time synchroni-

Due to the standardized interfaces, SIPROTECdevices can

also be integrated into systems from other manufacturers, or
into a SIMATIC system. Electrical RS485 or optical interfaces
are available. Optoelectronic converters enable the optimal
selection of transmission physics. Thus, cubicle-internal wiring with the RS485 bus, as well as interference-free optical
connection to the master can be implemented at low cost.
IEC 61850
An interoperable system solution is offered for IEC61850
together with SICAM. Via the 100 MBit/s Ethernet bus, the
devices are connected electrically or optically to the station
PC with SICAM. The interface is standardized, thus enabling

Description
Description
The line differential protection SIPROTEC 7SD80 has been
conceived for selective line protection of power cables and
overhead lines up to 24km for all kind of starpoint configurations.
2
3_2_LSP3.01-0008.eps
The implemented phase comparison algorithm is a fast and

stable method for line protection in industry and distribution
grids. The protection interface communication is carried
out directly without external equipment over copper wires,
optical fibers or both in redundancy. The wide scope of non
directional and directional functions can be applied miscellaneously as emergency functions as well as backup functions.
For instance the 7SD80 enables simplified and cost saving
concepts for meshed grids and busbar protection by means of
reverse interlocking. Fast and selective tripping is guaranteed
even if the communication fails between the relays. The scope
of functions includes protection functions as well as functions
for control and monitoring. The interoperable connectivity to
substation control systems is give by standard protocols like
IEC61850. The general concept of redundance for protection
and its communication gets completed by Ethernet redundancy protocols (PRP, HSR, RSTP) and thus increases the total
system availability. Integrated functions for commissioning
help and easy settings lead to short commissioning times.

Applications
The SIPROTEC 7SD80 is a numerical line differential
protection relay, which in addition to its main function, the
selective protection of overhead lines and cables, also covers
control and monitoring tasks.
Line protection
SIPROTEC 7SD80 devices are suitable as selective line protection for application in high-voltage and medium-voltage
systems of all types of neutral designs (solid, low-resistance
or high-resistance earthed, isolated or compensated).
Apart from the main protection function, the line differential
protection, SIPROTEC 7SD80 offers a lot of additional protection functions. These can be used in parallel as a backup
protection function, or as an emergency function if the main
protection function fails, and they complement the range of
functions of 7SD80 for application in transmission lines.
Control
The integrated control function permits control of disconnect
devices, grounding switches or circuit-breakers through
the integrated operator panel, binary inputs, DIGSI 4 or the
control or automation system (e.g. SICAM)
Operational measured values

Extensive measured values (e.g. I, V), metered values
(e.g.Wp,Wq) and limit values (e.g. for voltage, frequency)
provide improved system management as well as simplification by the commissioning
As for the operational measured values, a special focus was
placed on the measured values critical for differential protection. So, the attenuation values and the signal-to-noise ratio
of the communication connection, for example, are acquired
and indicated in addition to the measurement of the quality
of the telegram exchange per time unit.
Particular attention was paid to making the commissioning
of the differential protection easier and safer. In this context,
the amplitude and angle of the currents and of the voltages,
if applicable, are displayed additionally with reference to the
local measuring variable. In this way, a possible incorrect
connection (polarity reversal) of the current transformers can
be detected and eliminated early enough.
Operational indication
Monitoring of operation is ensured and documented by
storage of event logs, trip logs, fault records and statistics.

Differential protection (ANSI 87L, 87N L, 87Ns L)

The differential protection SIPROTEC 7SD80 consists of two
separately operating differential protection algorithms:
Phase comparison protection (PCP)
Earth-fault differential protection (EFD).
The phase comparison protection, PCP, offers a safe and
robust short-circuit protection for all types of neutral treatment. Of course, this is also valid for application in systems
with isolated or resonant-earthed neutral. Adaptation of
the phase comparison protection according to the neutral
treatment is done by setting parameters via DIGSI.
The earth-fault differential protection, EFD, operates with
two different algorithms, depending on the neutral treatment in the power system to be protected.
For application in solidly, low-resistance or high-resistance
earthed systems, the EFD analyzes the measured zero-sequence current. The fundamental wave of the zero-sequence
current is determined by filtering. The filtered zero-sequence
currents of the local side and the opposite side are added
and provide the zero-sequence differential current. The adaptive stabilizing facilitates the parameterization and assured
stability and selectivity.
For application in power systems with isolated or resonantearthed neutrals, the connection of voltages at least of the
zero-sequence voltage and the use of a sensitive earth-current transformer is required. From the zero-sequence current
and the voltage, the apparent power of the zero-sequence
system is calculated, and compared with the opposite end.
Depending on the direction of the power flow, an internal or
external earth fault is detected. This is only indicated, and
can be shut down immediately or with a set delay.
Circuit-breaker intertripping (ANSI 85 DT)
8
9
The 7SD80 devices have an integrated circuit-breaker intertripping function for tripping the circuit-breaker at the opposite end. The circuit-breaker intertripping can be activated
directly by the differential protection functions, but also
through binary signals of any other external or internal protection function. The circuit-breaker intertripping can be
combined with an integrated phase and/or zero-sequence
current threshold, which permits to trip the circuit-breaker
if there is a sufficiently high current.
Overcurrent protection, non-directional / directional
(ANSI 50, 50N, 51, 51N, 67, 67N)
This function is based on the phase-selective measurement
of the three phase currents and the earth current (4 instrument transformers).
10
In the SIPROTEC 7SD80, three definite time-overcurrent

protection stages are integrated for protection against phase
faults, as well as for protection against earth faults. The current
threshold and the delay time can be set for each stage. Furthermore, inverse time-overcurrent protection characteristics
can be added.
Each of the overcurrent protection stages can be set as emergency or backup protection independently of each other. This
enables the integration of the SIPROTEC 7SD80 in a simple
busbar protection concept by means of reverse interlocking.
When voltage transformers are connected, a directional
time-overcurrent protection emergency function can be
activated if the protection interface communication fails.

Inrush restraint
When the second harmonic is detected while energizing a
transformer inside or outside of the protection zone, pickup
of the differential protection stages or the overcurrent
protection stages can be suppressed.
Breaker failure protection (ANSI 50BF)
If a faulted portion of the electrical circuit is not disconnected
when a trip command is issued to a circuit-breaker, another
trip command can be initiated using the breaker failure protection which trips the circuit-breaker of an upstream feeder.
Breaker failure is detected if, after a trip command is issued
the current keeps on flowing into the faulted circuit. It is also
possible to make use of the circuit-breaker position contacts
for indication as opposed to the current flowing through the
circuit-breaker.
Through a binary input, an external protection device or monitoring equipment can be coupled into the signal processing
of the SIPROTEC 7SD80 to trip the local circuit-breaker.

Application sheets
Trip circuit supervision (ANSI 74TC)
Undervoltage protection (ANSI 27)
One or two binary inputs can be used for monitoring the

circuit-breaker trip coil including its incoming cables. An alarm
signal is generated whenever the circuit is interrupted.
The two-element undervoltage protection provides protection against dangerous voltage drops (especially for electric
machines). Applications include the isolation of generators
or motors from the network to avoid undesired operating
conditions and a possible loss of stability. Proper operating
conditions of electrical machines are best evaluated with
the positive-sequence quantities. The protection function is
active over a wide frequency range ( 10 % rated frequency).
Even when falling below this frequency range the function
continues to work, however, with decreased accuracy. The
function can operate either with phase-to-phase, phaseto-ground or positive phase-sequence voltage, and can be
monitored with a current criterion. Three-phase and singlephase connections are possible.
Flexible protection functions
SIP-0002.en.EPS.pdf
SIPROTEC 7SD80 enables the user to easily add up to 20

additional protective functions. Parameter definitions are
used to link standard protection logic with any chosen
characteristic quantity (measured or calculated quantity).
The standard logic consists of the usual protection elements
such as the pickup set point, the set delay time, the TRIP
command, a block function, etc. The mode of operation for
current, voltage, power and power factor quantities can be
three-phase or phase-selective. Almost all quantities can be
operated with ascending or descending pickup stages (e.g.
under and over voltage). All stages operate with protection
priority or speed.

Lockout (ANSI 86)

All binary output statuses can be memorized. The LED reset
key is used to reset the lockout state. The lockout state is also
stored in the event of supply voltage failure. Reclosure can
only occur after the lockout state is reset.
Thermal overload protection (ANSI 49)
To protect cables, an overload protection function with an
integrated warning/alarm element for temperature and
current can be used. The temperature is calculated using
a thermal homogeneous body model (per IEC 60255-8), it
considers the energy entering the equipment and the energy
losses. The calculated temperature is constantly adjusted
according to the calculated losses. The function considers
loading history and fluctuations in load.

3
Frequency protection (ANSI 81O/U)

Frequency protection can be used for overfrequency and underfrequency protection. Electric machines and parts of the
system are protected from unwanted frequency deviations.
Unwanted frequency changes in the network can be detected
and the load can be removed at a specified frequency setting. Frequency protection can be used over a wide frequency range ( 10 Hz rated frequency). There are four elements
(individually set as overfrequency, underfrequency or OFF)
and each element can be delayed separately. Blocking of the
frequency protection can be performed by activating a binary
input or by using an undervoltage element.

Customized functions (ANSI 32, 51V, 55 etc.)
Additional functions can be implemented using CFC or

flexible protection functions. Typical functions include
reverse power, voltage controlled overcurrent, phase angle
detection, and zero-sequence voltage detection.
Fast current monitoring

and further monitoring functions
SIPROTEC 7SD80 incorporates comprehensive monitoring
func-tions for hardware and software. Monitoring comprises
the measuring circuits, the analog-digital conversion, the
protection data communication connection the internal
supply voltages, the memories and the software sequence
(watchdog).
Overvoltage protection (ANSI 59)

10
The two-element overvoltage protection detects unwanted

network and machine overvoltage conditions. The function
can operate either with phase-to-phase, phase-to-ground,
positive phase-sequence or negative phase-sequence
voltage. Three-phase and single-phase connections are
possible.

an external meter with a metering pulse output is available,
the SIPROTEC 7SD80 can obtain and process metering pulses
through an indication input. The metered values can be displayed and passed on to a control center as an accumulated
value with reset. A distinction is made between forward,
reverse, active and reactive energy.

3_5_Bild-002-us.pdf
The protection of a radial feeder with

several substations via overcurrenttime protection leads to comparably
high shutdown times at the point of
infeed due to the necessary time grading. The stipulated fault clearance
time may therefore not be attainable.

Parallel feeders with bidirectional

power flow can be ideally protected
with the line differential protection
SIPROTEC 7SD80.

Ring feeder
Common alternative protection concepts are mostly based on the use of

directional time-overcurrent protection, which on the other hand also
requires voltage transformers in
the substations. An inverse grading
of these directional definite timeovercurrent protection devices, however, leads to long fault clearance
times. The use of the definite timeovercurrent relays as direction comparison protection requires like
the differential protection a communication connection between the
protection devices at the ends of the
corresponding ring segment, but this
does not reach the fault clearance
time of the differential protection.
The definite time-overcurrent protection integrated in SIPROTEC 7SD80
includes three stages, two thereof can
also be used as directional definite
time-overcurrent protection stages.
The operating mode of each stage is
settable. The stage can be activated
permanently, or only if the differential
protection function fails, e.g. if the
communication connection fails.
These definite-time stages allow
to configure an integrated backup
protection concept with the SIPROTEC
7SD80 relays in the ring-main panels.
Moreover, a busbar protection system
can also be implemented in the
substations by means of a reverse
interlocking.

The line differential protection

SIPROTEC 7SD80 is ideally suited to
protect ring feeders. Faults on the
connection cables/lines of the ring
are cleared strictly selectively and
instantaneously. For this purpose,
connection of the SIPROTEC 7SD80
devices to a current transformer is
sufficient. For the main protection
function of the SIPROTEC 7SD80,
voltage transformers are not necessary. Even intermediate infeeds in the
substations of the ring are completely
covered by this protection concept.

Description
Description
The SIPROTEC 7SJ80 relays can be used for line/feeder protection of high and medium-voltage networks with grounded,
low-resistance grounded, isolated or a compensated neutral
point. The relays have all the required functions to be applied
as a backup relay to a transformer differential relay.
The SIPROTEC 7SJ80 features flexible protection functions.

Up to 20 additional protection functions can be created by
the user.
Therefore protection of change for frequency or reverse

power protection can be realized, for example.
LSP3.01-0022.eps
The relay provides circuit-breaker control, further switching

devices and automation functions. The integrated programmable logic (CFC) allows the user to add own functions, e.g.
for the automation of switchgear (interlocking). The user is
also allowed to generate user-defined messages.

Applications
The SIPROTEC 7SJ80 perform control and monitoring
functions and therefore provide the user with a cost-effective
platform for power system management, that ensures
reliable supply of electrical power to the customers. The
ergonomic design makes control easy from the relay front
panel. A large, easy-to-read display was a key design factor.
Control
The SIPROTEC 7SJ80 units can be used for line protection of high
and medium-voltage networks with grounded, low-resistance
grounded, isolated or a compensated neutral point.
Event logs, trip logs, fault records and statistics documents are
stored in the relay to provide the user or operator with all the
key data required to operate modern substations.

Directional time-overcurrent protection (ANSI 67, 67N)
Overcurrent protection (ANSI 50, 50N, 51, 51N, 51V)

This function is based on the phase selective measurement
of the three phase currents and the ground current (four
transformers). Three definite time-overcurrent protection
elements (DMT) are available both for the phase and the
ground elements. The current threshold and the delay time
can be set in a wide range.
Inverse time-overcurrent protection characteristics (IDMTL)
can also be selected and activated. The inverse-time function
provides as an option voltage-restraint or voltagecontrolled operating modes
Reset characteristics
Time coordination with electromechanical relays are made

easy with the inclusion of the reset characteristics according
to ANSI C37.112 and IEC 60255-3 / BS 142 standards. When
using the reset characteristic (disk emulation), the reset process is initiated after the fault current has disappeared. This
reset process corresponds to the reverse movement of the
Ferraris disk of an electromechanical relay (disk emulation).
IEC 60255-3
Inverse
Short inverse
Long inverse
By making use of the voltage memory, the directionality can

be determined reliably even for close-in (local) faults. If the
primary switching device closes onto a fault and the voltage
is too low to determine direction, the direction is determined
using voltage from the memorized voltage. If no voltages are
stored in the memory, tripping will be according to the set
characteristic.
For ground protection, users can choose whether the direction is to be calculated using the zero-sequence or negativesequence system quantities (selectable). If the zero-sequence
voltage tends to be very low due to the zero-sequence impedance it will be better to use the negative-sequence quantities.
ANSI / IEEE
Moderately inverse
Directional phase and ground protection are separate functions. They operate in parallel to the non-directional overcurrent elements. Their pickup values and delay times can be set
separately. Definite-time and inverse-time characteristics are
offered. The tripping characteristic can be rotated by 180
degrees.

Extremely inverse

Inrush restraint
If second harmonic content is detected during the energization of a transformer, the pickup of stages I>,Ip, I>dir
and Ip dir is blocked.
Dynamic settings group switching
In addition to the static parameter changeover, the pickup

thresholds and the tripping times for the directional and
non-directional time-overcurrent protection functions can
be changed over dynamically. As changeover criterion, the
circuit-breaker position, the prepared auto-reclosure, or a
binary input can be selected.
Directional comparison protection (cross-coupling)
10
It is used for selective instantaneous tripping of sections

fed from two sources, i.e. without the disadvantage of time
delays of the set characteristic. The directional comparison
protection is suitable if the distances between the protection
zones are not significant and pilot wires are available for
signal transmission. In addition to the directional comparison
protection, the directional coordinated time-overcurrent
protection is used for complete selective backup protection.

(Sensitive) directional ground-fault detection

(ANSI 59N/64, 67Ns, 67N)
For isolated-neutral and compensated networks, the direction
of power flow in the zero sequence is calculated from the
zero-sequence current I0 and zero-sequence voltage V0. For
networks with an isolated neutral, the reactive current component is evaluated; for compensated networks, the active
current component or residual resistive current is evaluated.
For special network conditions, e.g. high-resistance grounded
networks with ohmic-capacitive ground-fault current or lowresistance grounded networks with ohmic-inductive current,
the tripping characteristics can be rotated approximately
45 degrees (see Fig.4/5).
Two modes of ground-fault direction detection can be implemented: tripping or signalling only mode.

Application sheets
(ANSI 59N, 67Ns, 67N) (contin.)
It has the following functions:
TRIP via the displacement voltage VE
Two instantaneous elements or one instantaneous plus
one user-defined characteristic
Each element can be set to forward, reverse or nondirectional
The function can also be operated in the insensitive mode
as an additional short-circuit protection.
Negative-sequence system overcurrent protection (ANSI 46)

By measuring current on the high side of the transformer,
the two-element phase-balance current/negative-sequence
protection detects high-resistance phase-to-phase faults
and phase-to-ground faults on the low side of a transformer
(e.g. Dy 5). This function provides backup protection for
high-resistance faults through the transformer.
Directional intermittent ground fault protection (ANSI 67Ns)
The directional intermittent ground fault protection has to
detect intermittent ground faults in resonant grounded cable
systems selectively. Intermittent ground faults in resonant
grounded cable systems are usually characterized by the
following properties:
A very short high-current ground current pulse (up to several
hundred amperes) with a duration of under 1 ms
They are self-extinguishing and re-ignite within one halfperiod up to several periods, depending on the power system
conditions and the fault characteristic.
Over longer periods (many seconds to minutes), they can
develop into static faults.
Such intermittent ground faults are frequently caused by weak
insulation, e.g. due to decreased water resistance of old cables.
Ground fault functions based on fundamental component
measured values are primarily designed to detect static
ground faults and do not always behave correctly in case
of intermittent ground faults. The function described here
evaluates specifically the ground current pulses and puts them
into relation with the zero-sequence voltage to determine the
direction.

Undervoltage-controlled reactive power protection

(Sensitive) ground-fault detection

(ANSI 50Ns, 51Ns / 50N, 51N)
For high-resistance grounded networks, a sensitive input
transformer is connected to a phase-balance neutral current
transformer (also called core-balance CT). The function can
also be operated in the normal mode as an additional shortcircuit protection for neutral or residual ground protection.
Intermittent (re-igniting) faults are caused by poor cable
insulation or water ingress into cable joints. After some time,
the faults extinguish automatically or they develop into
permanent short circuits. During the intermitting, neutral
point resistances in impedance grounded systems can suffer
thermal overload.
The normal ground fault protection is not capable of reliably
detecting and clearing the sometimes very short current
pulses. The required selectivity for intermittent ground
faults is achieved by summing up the times of the individual
pulses and tripping after a (programmable) summation time
has been reached. The pickup threshold Iie> evaluates RMS
values referred to 1 system period.
The undervoltage-controlled reactive power protection

protects the system for mains decoupling purposes. To prevent
a voltage collapse in energy systems, the generating side, e.g.
a generator, must be equipped with voltage and frequency
protection devices. An undervoltage-controlled reactive power
protection is required at the supply system connection point.
It detects critical power system situations and ensures that
the power generation facility is disconnected from the mains.
Furthermore, it ensures that reconnection only takes place
under stable power system conditions. The associated criteria
can be parameterized.
trip command can be initiated using the breaker failure protection which trips the circuit-breaker of an upstream feeder.
Breaker failure is detected if, after a trip command is issued
and the current keeps on flowing into the faulted circuit. It is
also possible to make use of the circuit-breaker position contacts for indication as opposed to the current flowing through
the circuit-breaker.

The high-impedance measurement principle is a simple

and sensitive method to detect ground faults, especially on
transformers. It can also be used on motors, generators and
reactors when they are operated on a grounded network.
When applying the high-impedance measurement principle,
all current transformers in the protected area are connected
in parallel and operated through one common resistor of
relatively high R. The voltage is measured across this resistor
(see Fig. 4/6).
The voltage is measured by detecting the current through
the (external) resistor R at the sensitive current measurement
input IEE. The varistor V serves to limit the voltage in the
event of an internal fault.
It limits the high instantaneous voltage spikes that can
occur at current transformer saturation. At the same time,
this results to smooth the voltage without any noteworthy
reduction of the average value.
If no faults have occurred and in the event of external or
through faults, the system is at equilibrium, and the voltage
through the resistor is approximately zero. In the event of
internal faults, an imbalance occurs which leads to a voltage
and a current flowing through the resistor R.
The same type of current transformers must be used and
must at least offer a separate core for the high-impedance
restricted ground-fault protection. They must have the same
transformation ratio and approximately an identical kneepoint voltage. They should also have only minimal measuring
errors.
Initiation of the ARC is dependant on the trip command

selected (e.g. I2>, I>>, Ip, Idir>)
The ARC function can be blocked by activating a binary input
The ARC can be initiated from external or by the PLC logic (CFC)
The directional and non-directional elements can either
be blocked or operated non-delayed depending on the
auto-reclosure cycle
If the ARC is not ready it is possible to perform a dynamic
setting change of the directional and non-directional
overcurrent elements.
The SIPROTEC 7SJ80 enables the user to easily add up to
20 additional protection functions. Parameter definitions

Lockout (ANSI 86)
To protect cables and transformers, an overload protection
function with an integrated warning/alarm element for
temperature and current can be used. The temperature is
calculated using a thermal homogeneous body model (per
IEC 60255-8), it considers the energy entering the equipment and the energy losses. The calculated temperature is
constantly adjusted according to the calculated losses. The
function considers loading history and fluctuations in load.
Settable dropout delay times
If the relays are used in conjunction with electromechanical
relays, in networks with intermittent faults, the long dropout
times of the electromechanical relay (several hundred milliseconds) can lead to problems in terms of time coordination/
grading. Proper time coordination/grading is only possible if
the dropout or reset time is approximately the same. This is
why the parameter for dropout or reset times can be defined
for certain functions, such as overcurrent protection, ground
short-circuit and phase-balance current protection.
Undercurrent monitoring (ANSI 37)
A sudden drop in current, which can occur due to a reduced
load, is detected with this function. This may be due to shaft
that breaks, no-load operation of pumps or fan failure.

Frequency protection can be used for overfrequency and
underfrequency protection. Electric machines and parts
of the system are protected from unwanted frequency
deviations. Unwanted frequency changes in the network
can be detected and the load can be removed at a specified
frequency setting. Frequency protection can be used over
a wide frequency range (40 to 60 (for 50 Hz), 50 to 70 (for
60 Hz)). There are four elements (individually set as overfrequency, underfrequency or OFF) and each element can
be delayed separately. Blocking of the frequency protection
can be performed by activating a binary input or by using an
undervoltage element.

Circuit-breaker wear monitoring/

circuit-breaker remaining service life
Methods for determining circuit-breaker contact wear or
the remaining service life of a circuit-breaker (CB) allow CB
maintenance intervals to be aligned to their actual degree of
wear. The benefit lies in reduced maintenance costs.
There is no exact mathematical method to calculate the wear
or the remaining service life of a circuit-breaker that takes
arc-chambers physical conditions into account when the CB
opens.
This is why various methods of determining CB wear have
evolved which reflect the different operator philosophies.
To do justice to these, the relay offers several methods:
I
Ix, with x = 1..3
i2t.
The devices also offer a new method for determining the
remaining service life:
Two-point method
The CB manufacturers double-logarithmic switching cycle
diagram (see Fig. 4/8) and the breaking current at the time
of contact opening serve as the basis for this method. After
CB opening, the two-point method calculates the remaining
number of possible switching cycles. Two points P1 and P2
only have to be set on the device. These are specified in the
CBs technical data.
All of these methods are phase-selective and a limit value
can be set in order to obtain an alarm if the actual value falls
below or exceeds the limit value during determination of the
remaining service life.
Binary I/O extension with SICAM I/O-Unit 7XV5673

To extend binary inputs and binary outputs for SIPROTEC
7SJ80 up to two SICAM I/O-Units 7XV5673 can be added.
Each SICAM I/O-Unit 7XV7653 is equipped with 6 binary
inputs and 6 binary outputs and an Ethernet switch for
cascading. The connection to the protection device can be
either through the DIGSI Ethernet service interface Port A or
through IEC 61850 GOOSE on Port B (System interface with
EN100 module).

represented as wide-ranging operational measured values.
To prevent transmission of information to the control center

with a simple definite-time overcurrent protection. Therefore, the
directional definite-time overcurrent
protection must be used. A nondirectional definite-time overcurrent
protection is enough only in the
corresponding busbar feeders. The
grading is done from the other end
respectively.
Advantage:
100% protection of the

line via instantaneous
tripping, and easy
setting.

In unstable power systems (e.g. solitary systems, emergency power supply in hospitals), it may be necessary
to isolate selected consumers from
the power system in order to protect
the overall system. The overcurrenttime protection functions are effective
only in the case of a short-circuit.
Overloading of the generator can be
measured as a frequency or voltage
drop.
52

Automatic reclosing
Reverse power protection with parallel

infeeds
If a busbar is supplied by two parallel
infeeds and there is a fault in one of the
infeeds, the affected busbar shall be
selectively shut down, so that supply to
the busbar is still possible through the
remaining infeed. To do this, directional
devices are required, which detect a
short circuit from the busbar towards the
infeed. In this context, the directional
time-overcurrent protection is normally
adjusted over the load current. Lowcurrent faults cannot be shut down by this
protection. The reverse power protection
can be adjusted far below rated power,
and is thus also able to detect reverse
power in case of low-current faults far
below the load current. The reverse power
protection is implemented through the
flexible protection functions.

The Automatic reclosing function (AR)

has starting and blocking options. In the
opposite example, the application of the
blocking of the high-current stages is
represented according to the reclosing
cycles. The overcurrent protection is
graded (stages I, Ip) according to the
grading plan. If an Automatic reclosing
function is installed in the incoming supply
of a feeder, first of all the complete feeder
is tripped instantaneously in case of fault.
Arc faults will be extinguished independently of the fault location. Other protection relays or fuses do not trip (fuse saving
scheme). After successful Automatic
reclosing, all consumers are supplied with
energy again. If there is a permanent fault,
further reclosing cycles will be performed.
Depending on the setting of the AR, the
instantaneous tripping stage in the infeed
is blocked in the first, second or third cycle,
i.e., now the grading is effective according
to the grading plan. Depending on the
fault location, overcurrent relays with
faster grading, fuses, or the relay in the
infeed will trip. Only the part of the feeder
with the permanent fault will be shut
down definitively.

Where two system sections are interconnected, the synchrocheck determines whether the connection is permissible without danger to the stability
of the power system. In the example,
load is supplied from a generator
to a busbar through a transformer.
The vector group of the transformer
can be considered by means of a
programmable angle adjustment, so
that no external adjustment elements
are necessary. Synchrocheck can be
used for auto-reclosure, as well as for
control functions (local or remote).

Protection of a transformer
The high-current stage enables a current grading, the overcurrent stages

work as backup protection to subordinate protection devices, and the overload function protects the transformer
from thermal overload. Low-current,
single-phase faults on the lowvoltage side, which are reproduced
in the opposite system on the highvoltage side, can be detected with
the unbalanced load protection. The
available inrush blocking prevents
pickup caused by the inrush currents
of the transformer.

Undervoltage-controlled reactive
power protection (QV Protection)
This ensures that generating units disconnect from the power system which
additionally burden the power system
during a short circuit or prevent that
the power system is restored when
connecting after a short circuit. The
monitoring of the voltage support
also fulfills this function.
Using the criteria mentioned above
the QV protection disconnects the generating unit from the power system
after a programmable time.
The QV protection furthermore allows
releasing the re-connection after the
fault has been located and cleared
in the power system and the system
voltage and frequency are stable
again.

When connecting generating units

to the medium-voltage power
system of the operator, a protective
disconnection device is required
which takes into account frequency
and voltage and also evaluates the
reactive power direction. When the
generating unit draws reactive power
from the operator's power system,
Undervoltage-controlled reactive
power protection (Q> & V<) links
the reactive power with all three
phase-to-phase voltages falling below

Description
The SIPROTEC 7SJ81 provides 4 low-power current transformer inputs and optionally 3 low-power voltage transformer
inputs. With the same low-power current transformer (LPCT)
a wide range of primary rated line currents can be covered.
Objects with rated currents in the range of 40 A to 5000 A
can be protected when using low-power current transformers. The following low-power current transformer ratios are
suitable for the following primary current operating ranges:

400 A/225 mV for a primary operating current range
of 200 A 2500 A
100 A/22.5mV for a primary operating current range
of 400A 5000 A
The SIPROTEC 7SJ81 is a multi-functional motor protection

relay. It is designed for protection of asynchronous motors
of all sizes. The relays have all the required functions to be
applied as a backup relay to a transformer differential relay.
The relay provides numerous functions to respond flexibly to
the system requirements and to deploy the invested capital
economically. Examples for this are: exchangeable interfaces,
flexible protection functions and the integrated automation
level (CFC). Freely assignable LEDs and a six-line display
ensure a unique and clear display of the process states.
In combination with up to 9 function keys, the operating
personnel can react quickly and safely in any situation. This
guarantees a high operational reliability.

for Low-Power CT and VT Applications Applications
Operational indications
The SIPROTEC 7SJ81 unit is a numerical protection with low

power CT and VT inputs. The device performs control and
monitoring functions and therefore provides the user with a
cost-effective platform for power system management, that
ensures reliable supply of electrical power to the customers.
The ergonomic design makes control easy from the relay
front panel. A large, easy-to-read display was a key design
factor.
Event logs, trip logs, fault records and statistics documents

are stored in the relay to provide the user or operator with all
the key data required to operate modern substations.
Line protection
The SIPROTEC 7SJ81 units can be used for line protection
of high and medium-voltage networks with grounded,
point.
Control
control or automation system (e.g. SICAM).
Programmable logic
The relay provides all the functions for backup protection for
transformer differential protection. The inrush suppression
effectively prevents unwanted trips that can be caused by
inrush currents.
Backup protection
SIPROTEC 7SJ81 can be used as a backup protection for a

wide range of applications.
Extensive measured values (e.g. I, V), metered values (e.g.

Wp,Wq) and limit values (e.g. for voltage, frequency) provide
improved system management.

Time coordination with electromechanical relays is made

Directional phase and ground protection are separate functions. They operate in parallel to the non-directional overcurrent elements. Their pickup values and delay times can be set
separately. Definite-time and inverse-time characteristics are
offered. The tripping characteristic can be rotated by 180
degrees.
By making use of the voltage memory, the directionality can
be determined reliably even for close-in (local) faults. If the
primary switching device closes onto a fault and the voltage
is too low to determine direction, the direction is determined
using voltage from the memorized voltage. If no voltages are
stored in the memory, tripping will be according to the set
characteristic.
For ground protection, users can choose whether the direction is to be calculated using the zero-sequence or negativesequence system quantities (selectable). If the zero-sequence
voltage tends to be very low due to the zero-sequence impedance it will be better to use the negative-sequence quantities.

(ANSI 59N/64, 67Ns, 67N)
For isolated-neutral and compensated networks, the direction of power flow in the zero sequence is calculated from
the zero-sequence current I0 and zero-sequence voltage V0.
For networks with an isolated neutral, the reactive current
component is evaluated; for compensated networks, the
active current component or residual resistive current is evaluated. For special network conditions, e.g. high-resistance
grounded networks with ohmic-capacitive ground-fault
current or low-resistance grounded networks with ohmicinductive current, the tripping characteristics can be rotated
approximately 45 degrees (see Fig.5/5).
Two modes of ground-fault direction detection can be
implemented: tripping or signalling only mode.

If a faulted portion of the electrical circuit is not disconnected when a trip command is issued to a circuit-breaker,
another trip command can be initiated using the breaker failure protection which trips the circuit-breaker of an upstream
feeder. Breaker failure is detected if, after a trip command

cycles. The overcurrent-time protection
is graded (stages I, Ip) according to the
grading plan. If an auto-reclosure function is installed in the incoming supply
of a feeder, first of all the complete
feeder is tripped instantaneously in case
of fault. Arc faults will be extinguished
independently of the fault location.
Other protection relays or fuses do
not trip (fuse saving scheme). After
successful auto-reclosure, all consumers
are supplied with energy again. If there
is a permanent fault, further reclosing
cycles will be performed. Depending on
the setting of the AR, the instantaneous
tripping stage in the infeed is blocked in
the first, second or third cycle, i.e., now
the grading is effective according to the
grading plan. Depending on the fault
location, overcurrent relays with faster
grading, fuses, or the relay in the infeed
will trip. Only the part of the feeder with
the permanent fault will be shut down

the busbar is still possible through the
remaining infeed. To do this, directional
devices are required, which detect a
short circuit from the busbar towards the
infeed. In this context, the directional
time-overcurrent protection is normally
adjusted over the load current. Low-current faults cannot be shut down by this
protection. The reverse power protection
can be adjusted far below rated power,
and is thus also able to detect reverse
power in case of low-current faults far
below the load current. The reverse
power protection is implemented through
the flexible protection functions.

Directional overcurrent protection, ground (ANSI 67N)
Directional ground protection is a separate function.

It operates in parallel to the non-directional ground
overcurrent elements. Their pickup values and delay times
can be set separately. Definite-time and inverse-time
characteristics aroffered. The tripping characteristic can be
rotated by 0 to 180 degrees.

can also be selected and activated. The inverse-time
function provides as an option voltage-restraint or
voltage-controlled operating modes
For ground protection, users can choose whether the

direction is to be calculated using the zero-sequence or
negative-sequence system quantities (selectable). If the
zero-sequence voltage tends to be very low due to the zerosequence impedance it will be better to use the negativesequence quantities.
using the reset characteristic (disk emulation), the reset
process is initiated after the fault current has disappeared.
This reset process corresponds to the reverse movement
of the Ferraris disk of an electromechanical relay (disk
emulation).

protection, ground

(ANSI 59N / 64, 67Ns, 67N)
For isolated-neutral and compensated networks, the
direction of power flow in the zero sequence is calculated
from the zero-sequence current I0 and zero-sequence
voltage V0. For networks with an isolated neutral, the
reactive current component is evaluated; for compensated
networks, the active current component or residual resistive
current is evaluated. For special network conditions, e.g.
high-resistance grounded networks with ohmic-capacitive
ground-fault current or low-resistance grounded networks
with ohmic-inductive current, the tripping characteristics
can be rotated approximately 45 degrees (see Fig. 6 / 5).

Application sheets
The normal ground fault protection is not capable of reliably
detecting and clearing the sometimes very short current
pulses. The required selectivity for intermittent ground faults
is achieved by summing up the times of the individual pulses
and tripping after a (programmable) summation time has
been reached. The pickup threshold Iie> evaluates RMS values
referred to 1 system period.
Directional intermittent ground fault protection (ANSI 67Ns)

The directional intermittent ground fault protection function

has the task to selectively detect intermittent ground faults in
resonant-grounded cable networks.
Intermittent ground faults in resonant-grounded cable
networks are typically marked by the following properties:
Very short high-current ground current impulse (up to
several hundred amperes) with a duration of less than 1
ms.
They are self-extinguishing and reignite depending on
the network conditions and fault characteristics within a
half period up to several periods.

TRIP via the displacement voltage V E
non-directional
(ANSI 50Ns, 51Ns / 50N, 51N)
Intermittent (re-igniting) faults are caused by poor cable
insulation or water ingress into cable joints. After some time,
the faults extinguish automatically or they develop into
permanent short circuits. During the intermitting, neutral
point resistances in impedance grounded systems can suffer
thermal overload.
They can also develop into static faults over prolonged

periods of time (many seconds up to minutes).
Such intermittent ground faults are typically caused by poor
insulation, e.g. due to insufficient water insulation of old
cables.
Ground fault functions based on measured values of the
fundamental component are primarily designed for detection of static ground faults and they do not always show a
correct behavior in the case of intermittent ground faults.
The directional intermittent ground fault protection function
evaluates specifically the ground current impulses and for
the direction determination it refers them to zero voltage.
the two-element phase-balance current / negative-sequence
protection detects high-resistance phase-to-phase faults and
phase-to-ground faults on the low side of a transformer (e.g.
Dy 5). This function provides backup protection for highresistance faults through the transformer.
another trip command can be initiated using the breaker
failure protection which trips the circuit-breaker of an
upstream feeder. Breaker failure is detected if, after a trip
command is issued and the current keeps on flowing into the
faulted circuit. It is also possible to make use of the circuitbreaker position contacts (52a or 52b) for indication as
opposed to the current flowing through the circuit-breaker.

If the relays are used in conjunction with electromechanical relays, in networks with intermittent faults, the long
dropout times of the electromechanical relay (several
hundred milliseconds) can lead to problems in terms of time
coordination / grading. Proper time coordination / grading
is only possible if the dropout or reset time is approximately
the same. This is why the parameter for dropout or reset
times can be defined for certain functions, such as
overcurrent protection, ground short-circuit and phasebalance current protection.

Motor protection
Restart inhibit (ANSI 66 / 86)

If a motor is subjected to many successive
starts, the rotor windings or rotor bars can
be heated up to a point where the electrical
connections between the rotor bars and the
end rings are damaged. As it is not possible
to physically measure the heat of the rotor
we need to determine the heat by measuring the current the rotor is drawing through
the stator to excite the rotor. A thermal
replica of the rotor is established using a I2t
curve. The restart inhibit will block the user
from starting the motor if the relay determined that the rotor reached a temperature
that will damage the rotor should a start be
attempted. The relay will thus only allow a
restart if the rotor has a sufficient thermal
reserve to start (see Fig. 6/7).
Emergency start-up
If the relay determines that a restart of the
motor is not allowed, the relay will issue
a block signal to the closing command,
effectively blocking any attempt to start the
motor. The emergency startup will defeat
this block signal if activated through a
binary input. The thermal replica can also be
reset to allow an emergency restart of the
motor.

relay will also provide data on the number of starts, total
operating time, total down time, etc. This data is saved as
statistics in the relay.

In unstable power systems (e.g.

solitary systems, emergency power
supply in hospitals), it may be necessary to isolate selected consumers
from the power system in order
to protect the overall system. The
overcurrent-time protection functions
are effective only in the case of a
short-circuit. Overloading of the
generator can be measured as a
frequency or voltage drop.

The high-current stage enables a

current grading, the overcurrent
stages work as backup protection to
subordinate protection devices, and
the overload function protects the
transformer from thermal overload.
Low-current, single-phase faults
on the low-voltage side, which are
reproduced in the opposite system on
the high-voltage side, can be detected
with the unbalanced load protection.
The available inrush blocking prevents
pickup caused by the inrush currents
of the transformer.

for Low-Power CT and VT Applications - Description
Description
The SIPROTEC 7SK81 provides 4 low-power current transformer inputs and optionally 3 low-power voltage transformer
inputs. With the same low-power current transformer (LPCT)
a wide range of primary rated line currents can be covered.
Objects with rated currents in the range of 40 A to 5000 A
can be protected when using low-power current transformers. The following low-power current transformer ratios are
suitable for the following primary current operating ranges:
1
2
LSP3.01-0026.eps
100 A/225 mV for a primary operating current range of

40 A 600 A
50 A/22.5 mV for a primary operating current range of
200 A 3000 A
400A/225mV for a primary operating current range of
200 A 2500 A
100 A/22.5 mV for a primary operating current range of
400 A 5000 A.
The SIPROTEC 7SK81 is a multi-functional motor protection

The relay provides numerous functions to respond flexibly to
the system requirements and to deploy the invested capital
economically. Examples for this are: exchangeable interfaces,
flexible protection functions and the integrated automation
level (CFC). Freely assignable LEDs and a six-line display
ensure a unique and clear display of the process states.
In combination with up to 9 function keys, the operating
personnel can react quickly and safely in any situation. This
guarantees a high operational reliability.

for Low-Power CT and VT Applications - Applications
The SIPROTEC 7SK81 unit is a numerical motor protection relay
for low power CT and VT inputs. It can perform control and
monitoring functions and therefore provide the user with a
cost-effective platform for power system management, that
The ergonomic design makes control easy from the relay front
panel. A large, easy-to-read display was a key design factor.
Control
Motor protection
The SIPROTEC 7SK81 device is specifically designed to protect
induction-type asynchronous motors.
SIPROTEC 7SK81 units can be used for line protection of high

and medium-voltage networks with grounded, low-resistance
grounded, isolated or a compensated neutral point.
The integrated logic characteristics (CFC) allow the user to add

own functions for automation of switchgear (e.g. interlocking)
or switching sequence. The user can also generate userdefined messages. This functionality can form the base to
create extremely flexible transfer schemes.
The SIPROTEC 7SK81 device provides all the functions for
backup protection for transformer differential protection. The
inrush suppression effectively prevents unwanted trips that
can be caused by inrush currents.

function with an integrated warning/alarm element for temperature and current can be used. The temperature is calculated
using a thermal homogeneous body model (per IEC 60255-8),
it considers the energy entering the equipment and the energy
losses. The calculated temperature is constantly adjusted according to the calculated losses. The function considers loading
history and fluctuations in load.
Protection of motors requires an additional time constant.
This is used to accurately determine the thermal heating of
the stator during the running and motor stopped conditions.
The ambient temperature or the temperature of the coolant
can be detected either through internal RTD inputs or via an
external RTD-box. The thermal replica of the overload function
is automatically adapted to the ambient conditions. If neither
internal RTD inputs nor an external RTD-box exist, it is assumed
that the ambient temperatures are constant.
times of the electromechanical relay (several hundred milliseconds) can lead to problems in terms of time coordina-tion/
for certain functions, such as time-overcurrent protection,
ground short-circuit and phase-balance current protection.

Motor protection
Restart inhibit (ANSI 66/86)

If a motor is subjected to many successive
starts, the rotor windings or rotor bars can
be heated up to a point where the electrical
connections between the rotor bars and the
end rings are damaged. As it is not possible
to physically measure the heat of the rotor
we need to determine the heat by measuring
the current the rotor is drawing through the
stator to excite the rotor. A thermal replica
of the rotor is established using a I2t curve.
The restart inhibit will block the user from
starting the motor if the relay determined
that the rotor reached a temperature that
will damage the rotor should a start be
attempted. The relay will thus only allow a
restart if the rotor has a sufficient thermal
reserve to start (see Fig.).
Emergency start-up
If the relay determines that a restart of the
motor is not allowed, the relay will issue
a block signal to the closing command,
effectively blocking any attempt to start the
motor. The emergency startup will defeat
this block signal if activated through a binary
input. The thermal replica can also be reset
to allow an emergency restart of the motor.

Load jam protection (ANSI 51M)
Load jam is activated when a sudden high load is applied to

the motor because of mechanical failure of a pump for example. The sudden rise in current is detected by this function
and can initiate an alarm or a trip. The overload function is
too slow and thus not suitable.

Unbalanced load protection (ANSI 46)

The unbalanced load protection detects a phase failure or
load unbalance due to system asymmetry, and protects the
rotor from impermissible overheating.

Motor statistics
Essential statistical information is saved by the relay during

a start. This includes the duration, current and voltage. The
relay will also provide data on the number of starts, total
operating time, total down time, etc. This data is saved as
statistics in the relay.

In unstable power systems (e.g. solitary
systems, emergency power supply
in hospitals), it may be necessary to
isolate selected consumers from the
power system in order to protect the
overall system. The overcurrent-time
protection functions are effective only
in the case of a short-circuit. Overloading of the generator can be measured
as a frequency or voltage drop.

Description
Description
The SIPROTEC 7RW80 is a numerical, multi-function relay for
connection to voltage transformers. It can be used in distribution systems, on transformers and for electrical machines.
If the SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 detects any deviation from
the permitted voltage, frequency or overexcitation values, it
will respond according to the values set. The relay can also
be applied for the purposes of system decoupling and for
load shedding if ever there is a risk of a system collapse as a
result of inadmissibly large frequency drops. An integrated
load restoration function allows the re-establishment of the
power system after recovery of the system frequency.

The SIPROTEC 7RW80 features flexible protection functions.

the user. For example, a rate of change of frequency function
or a reverse power function can be created.
The relay provides circuit-breaker control, additional primary
switching devices (grounding switches, transfer switches
and isolating switches) can also be controlled from the relay.
Automation or PLC logic functionality is also implemented in
the relay.
The integrated programmable logic (CFC) allows the user
to add own functions, e.g. for the automation of switchgear (including: interlocking, transfer and load shedding
schemes). The user is also allowed to generate user-defined
messages. The communication module is independent from
the protection. It can easily be exchanged or upgraded to
future communication protocols.

Applications
Line protection
The SIPROTEC 7RW80 unit is a numerical protection device

that can perform control and monitoring functions and
therefore provide the user with a cost-effective platform for
power system management, that ensures reliable supply of
electrical power to the customers. The ergonomic design
makes control easy from the relay front panel. A large, easyto-read display was a key design factor.
For the enhancement of the feeder protection the 7RW80

provides several stages for voltage and frequency protection.
Generator and transformer protection
Control
Programmable logic
Through implemented voltage, frequency and overexcitation

protection the SIPROTEC 7RW80 can be used for generators
and transformers in case of defective voltage or frequency
control, full load rejection or operation in islanding generation systems.
System decoupling and load shedding
For system decoupling and load shedding the SIPROTEC

7RW80 provides voltage, frequency, rate-of-frequencychange and rate-of-voltage-change protection.
Load restoration
For power system recovery, frequency protection and load

restoration are available in SIPROTEC 7RW80.

conditions of electrical machines are best evaluated with the
positive-sequence quantities. The protection function is active over a wide frequency range of 25 to 70 Hz. The function can operate either with phase-to-phase, phase-toground or positive phase-sequence voltage. Three-phase
and single-phase connections are possible. In addition a user
definable curve with up to 20 value pairs is available.

Frequency protection can be used for overfrequency and underfrequency protection. Electric machines and parts of the
system are protected from unwanted frequency deviations.
Unwanted frequency changes in the network can be detected
and the load can be removed at a specified frequency
setting. Frequency protection can be used over a wide
frequency range of 25 to 70 Hz. There are four elements
(individually set as overfrequency, underfrequency or OFF)
and each element can be delayed separately. Blocking of the
frequency protection can be performed by activating
a binary input or by using an undervoltage element.
Overexcitation protection (ANSI 24)

The overexcitation protection serves for detection of an unpermissible high induction (proportional to V/f) in generators
or transformers, which leads to thermal overloading. This
may occur when starting up, shutting down under full load,
with weak systems or under isolated operation. The inverse
characteristic can be set via eight points derived from the
manufacturer data. In addition, a definite-time alarm stage
and an instantaneous stage can be used. For calculation of
the V/f ratio, frequency and also the highest of the three
line-to-line voltages are used. The frequency range that can
be monitored comprises 25 to 70 Hz.
Jump of voltage vector
Monitoring the phase angle in the voltage is a criterion for
identifying an interrupted infeed. If the incoming line should
fail, the abrupt current discontinuity leads to a phase angle
jump in the voltage. This is measured by means of a delta
process. The command for opening the generator or coupler
circuit-breaker will be issued if the set threshold is exceeded.
SIPROTEC 7RW80 enables the user to easily add up to 20
command, a block function, etc.
Load restoration
The load restoration function provides an automatic reconnection of power system parts when the system frequency
has recovered after load shedding. Four load restoration
stages are available. They can be switched on and off separately. If the frequency conditions allow the assumption of
sufficient generation resources, the load restoration function
will consecutively reconnect small load parts at specified
time intervals.

The mode of operation for voltage quantities can be threephase or single-phase. Almost all quantities can be operated
with ascending or descending pickup stages (e.g. under and
overvoltage). All stages operate with protection priority or
speed.

From the measured frequency, the

frequency difference is determined
over a time interval. It corresponds to
the momentary frequency change.
It is thus possible to quickly detect any
major load drops in the power system,
to disconnect certain consumers
from the system, and to restore the
system to stability. Unlike frequency
protection, rate-of-frequency-changeprotection already reacts before the
pickup threshold of the frequency
protection is reached.
The pickup value depends on the application, and follows the conditions
of the power system. The rate-offrequency-change protection function
can also be used for the purposes of
system decoupling.

Where two system sections are interconnected, the synchrocheck determines whether the connection is permissible without danger to the stability
of the power system. In the example,
load is supplied from a generator
to a busbar through a transformer.
The vector group of the transformer
can be considered by means of a
programmable angle adjustment, so
that no external adjustment elements
are necessary. Synchrocheck can be
used for auto-reclosure, as well as for
control functions (local or remote).

The SIPROTEC 7SC80 has a complete other form factor than

all other SIPROTEC Compact devices. All interfaces are at the
left and right hand side of the relay. A small print onto the
enclosure next to the clamps describes each port in detail.
All clamps are pluggable and therefore a pre-wiring and
easy replacement in case of maintenance is possible. A short
circuit is integrated in the pluggable CT clamp to avoid any
risk of unclosed secondary CT circuits. The first eight binary
inputs and the second four binary inputs have a common
ground. The threshold is fixed for 24 V and higher. The
secondary values of the CTs 1 A or 5 A can be set via DIGSI.

Housing with many advantages
Operation panel/HMI
The relay features both a clip-on and a web-based operation
panel/HMI (web monitor) with 32 LEDs and 9 programmable
keys that can be used to configure shortcuts for menu
operations or other applications (see Fig. 9/6).

Current terminal
The web monitor can be started just by entering the device

IP address in an internet browser. All device monitoring and
control functions are thus available in real-time through a
communication link. The access rights can be restricted. If
security requirements are more stringent, this function can
also be disabled completely.
The second web monitor view provides a graphic display
which represents control displays and also enables control
operations. Additionally, the web monitor gives access
to operational indications, protection indications, fault
records, primary and secondary values.

The operation panel/HMI is not mandatory for the correct

functioning of the SIPROTEC 7SC80. It can be attached or
detached during operation without any adverse effects. It is
installed either directly on the SIPROTEC 7SC80 base device
or connected detached using a 3 m cable.
SIPROTEC 7SC80 is suited for panel flush mounting or panel
surface mounting.

The SIPROTEC 7SC80 variants are always equipped with at

least one single voltage input Vx. This input can be used e.g.
to detect line voltage of a single phase.
An optional internal GPS module can be ordered to provide
high accuracy time synchronization to the device. The GPS
coordinates of the device can e.g. be provided to a control
center.
The SIPROTEC 7SC80 devices are always equipped with
either an electrical or an optical Ethernet module. IEC 61850
is always available on the module and optionally together
with one of the protocolls IEC 60870-5-104, PROFINET IO or
DNP3 TCP.
The optical module can be equipped with single mode ports
to bridge distances up to 24 km, the well known integrated
ethernet switch functionality is of course included.

Transformers
Low-power transformer terminals
Low-power voltage transformers
The SIPROTEC 7SC80 is available in two hardware configurations, featuring 3 inputs for connecting low-power current
transformers (if the ground current has to be measured
separately, the input Vx can be used) and optionally 3 inputs
for voltage transformers. Here, the low-power voltage
transformers are connected to the standard voltage transformer inputs. The required measuring range is activated
via parameter set. A secondary voltage corresponding to
the primary value is required; differential sensors are not
supported.
Resistive voltage dividers are provided as low-power

voltage transformers. You can generally connect all
sensors that support the following SIPROTEC 7SC80
specifications:

Battery monitor
The DC 24/48 V auxiliary voltage version allows monitoring an external 24 V or 48 V battery. The DC voltage is
measured directly and provided as measured value. The
battery is tested periodically. For this purpose, the external
battery loader is deactivated temporarily, and after a short
waiting time, an external load impedance is connected to
the battery. The battery voltage before and after the test is
measured. If the voltage difference is too great, a message
can be generated. A number of other battery-related
messages are available. The battery status is also indicated
by a special battery LED.

time can be set in a wide range. Inverse-time overcurrent
protection characteristics (IDMTL) can also be selected and
activated.
Moreover there are further recloser inverse-time characteristic curves available.
The tripping characteristic can be rotated by 180 degrees.

By making use of the voltage memory, the directionality
can be determined reliably even for close-in (local) faults.
If the primary switching device closes onto a fault and the
voltage is too low to determine direction, the direction is
determined using voltage from the memorized voltage. If no
voltages are stored in the memory, tripping will be according to the set characteristic.

using the reset characteristic (disk emulation), the reset
process is initiated after the fault current has disappeared.
This reset process corresponds to the reverse movement

emulation).

protection which trips the circuit-breaker of an upstream

issued the current keeps on flowing into the faulted circuit.
It is also possible to make use of the circuit-breaker position
contacts for indication as opposed to the current flowing
through the circuit-breaker.

The high-impedance measurement principle is a simple

and sensitive method to detect ground faults, especially on
transformers. It can also be used on motors, generators and
reactors when they are operated on a grounded network.
When applying the high-impedance measurement principle,

all current transformers in the protected area are connected
in parallel and operated through one common resistor of
relatively high R. The voltage is measured across this resistor
(see Fig. 9/11).

LSA4115-de.ai

Fig. 9/11 High-impedance restricted ground-fault protection

The voltage is measured by detecting the current through
the (external) resistor R at the sensitive current measurement input I EE. The varistor V serves to limit the voltage in
the event of an internal fault.
It limits the high instantaneous voltage spikes that can

occur at current transformer saturation. At the same time,
this results to smooth the voltage without any noteworthy
reduction of the average value.
If no faults have occurred and in the event of external or

through faults, the system is at equilibrium, and the voltage
through the resistor is approximately zero. In the event of
internal faults, an imbalance occurs which leads to a voltage
and a current flowing through the resistor R.
The same type of current transformers must be used and

must at least offer a separate core for the high-impedance
restricted ground-fault protection. They must have the
same transformation ratio and approximately an identical
knee-point voltage. They should also have only minimal
measuring errors.

directional devices are required, which
detect a short circuit from the busbar

directional time-overcurrent protection
is normally adjusted over the load
current. Low-current faults cannot be
shut down by this protection. The reverse
power protection can be adjusted far
below rated power, and is thus also
able to detect reverse power in case of
low-current faults far below the load

independently of the fault location. Other
protection relays or fuses do not trip

Automatic reclosing, all consumers are

cycles will be performed. Depending on
the setting of the AR, the instantaneous

Description
The hardware variant of the SIPROTEC 7SC80 integrates an
SNTP server and a GPS module.
With it the first substation hardened SNTP server with GPS

receiver is available for precise time synchronization for all
SIPROTEC protection devices and all other SNTP-capable
devices, e.g. SICAM T/Q80 or 3rd-party products.
Protection functions are not provided. The few configuration settings (e.g. IP-address) will be done with DIGSI 4.
2
SIP-COM-05.tif
The communication redundancy protocols RSTP/PRP/

HSR and IEC 61850 are supported completely. With these
features the SNTP Server with optical interfaces can be
operated directly as part of SIPROTEC ring networks.
A GPS antenna kit with antenna, mounting and 25 m cable
is available separately.

Fig.9/36 SNTP-Master/Server 7SC80
Applications
With the 7SC80 SNTP time server all Ethernet attached

devices can be synchronized via SNTP protocol (Simple
Network Time Protocol) at a millisecond accuracy base.
The transmitted time is standardized UTC-time or local time.
For this application all (protection) devices need a suitable

Ethernet interface, e.g. in SIPROTEC 4 port B (EN100
module) is needed.
The GPS antenna is mounted to an outside wall or flat roof
with line of sight to the sky (order separately).
The SNTP server will be mounted close to the antenna and

will be typically supplied with the same auxiliary voltage
as the protective relays. By using the optical interfaces,
any EMC influence is excluded, even with long distances
between SNTP Server and protective relays.
By using the 7SC80 for time synchronization the typical

accuracy is 1 ms. A dedicated network for time synchronization is not necessary.
The deployment of 7SC80 in redundant SNTP time server
scenarios is possible as well. The integration in DIGSIprojects can be done with the complete 7SC80 parameter
set; the usage of SNTP.ICD files is no longer necessary.
In the protective relays the time source has to be adjusted

to Ethernet NTP. Local time settings, e.g. summer/winter
time switchover or time offset, can be considered as well.
