NOTE:
If the operating mode of 7SR10 Relay is remote, the user can perform the CB open and close operations when
the “FUNCTION KEY CONFIG” setting is enabled.

2.4 Power Supply Unit (PSU)

The relay is supplied with the following nominal power supply ranges:
• 88 V AC/DC or 44 V AC/DC BI threshold available with 60 V - 240 V AC/DC power supply version
• 19 V DC BI threshold with 24 V - 60 V DC power supply version
The power supply module is equipped with 6 Binary Inputs. It also consists of one RS485 communication
interface (half duplex) for communicating with RTUs and parameterization of relays via remote locations.
For AC connections, the auxiliary supply is made with the live connection to positive terminal and neutral
connection to negative for consistency and safety.
In the event of the supply voltage levels are falling below the relay minimum operate level, the PSU will
automatically switch off itself and latch out and this prevents any PSU overload conditions occurring. The PSU is
reset by switching the auxiliary supply off and on.

2.5 Connectors
In 7SR10 Overcurrent and Earth Fault relay, all the connectors are pluggable type except the CT connectors and
it consists of Binary Inputs and Binary Outputs connectors. The connector terminals are designated suitably.

2.7 Operator Interface

2.7.1 Liquid Crystal Display (LCD)
A 4 line by 20-character alpha-numeric liquid crystal display indicates settings, instrumentation, fault data, and
control commands.
To conserve power, the display backlighting is extinguished when no buttons are pressed for a user-defined
period. The ‘backlight timer’ setting within the “SYSTEM CONFIG” menu allows the timeout to be adjusted from 1
to 60 minutes and “Off” (backlight permanently on). Pressing any key will reactivate the display.
User-defined identifying text can be programmed into the relay by using the System config/Relay Identifier and
System config/Circuit Identifier setting. The ‘Identifier’ texts are displayed on the LCD display in two lines at the
top level of the menu structure. The ‘Relay Identifier’ is used in communication with Reydisp to identify the relay.
By pressing the Cancel button several times will return the user to this screen.
Figure 2-6 Close up of Relay Identifier
2.7.2 LCD Indication
General Alarms are user defined text messages displayed on the LCD when mapped to binary inputs or virtual
inputs. Up to six general alarms of 16 characters can be programmed, each triggered from one or more input.
Each general alarm will also generate an event.
If multiple alarms are activated simultaneously, the messages are displayed on a separate page in a
rolling display on the LCD. The System Config > General Alarm Alert setting Enabled/Disabled allows the user
to select if the alarms are to be displayed on the LCD when active.
All general alarms are raised when a fault trigger is generated and will be logged into the Fault Data record.
2.7.3 Standard Keys

The relay is supplied as standard with five push buttons. The buttons are used to navigate the menu structure and
control the relay functions. They are labelled:
▲ Increases a setting or moves up menu.

▼ Decreases a setting or moves down menu.
TEST/RESET► Moves right, can be used to reset selected functionality and for LED test (at relay
identifier screen).
ENTER Used to initiate and accept settings changes.

CANCEL Used to cancel settings changes and/or move up the menu structure by one
level per press.
OPEN Used to execute the open of circuit breaker (optional)
CLOSE Used to execute the close of circuit breaker (optional)
NOTE:
All settings and configuration of LEDs, BI and BO can be accessed and set by the user using these keys.
Alternatively, the configuration/settings files can be loaded into the relay using ‘Reydisp’ software. When the
System Config > Setting Dependencies is ENABLED, only the functions that are enabled will appear in the
menu structure.

2.7.4 Protection Healthy LED

This green LED is steadily illuminated to indicate that auxiliary voltage has been applied to the relay power supply
and that the relay is operating correctly. If the internal relay watchdog detects an internal fault then the LED will
continuously flash.
2.7.5 Indication LEDs

Relays have 9 user programmable LED indicators. Each LED can be programmed to be illuminated as either
green, orange, or red. Where an LED is programmed to be lit both red and green, it will illuminate yellow. The
same LED can be assigned two different colours dependent upon whether a Start/Pickup or Operate condition
exists. LED’s can be assigned to the pickup condition and colour selected in the OUTPUT CONFIG > LED
CONFIG menu.
Functions are assigned to the LEDs in the OUTPUT CONFIG > OUTPUT MATRIX menu.
Each LED can be labelled by inserting a label strip into the pocket behind the front fascia. A ‘template’ is available
in the Reydisp software tool to allow users to create and print customised legends.
Each LED can be programmed as hand reset or self reset. Hand reset LEDs can be reset either by pressing the
TEST/RESET ► button, energising a suitably programmed binary input or by sending an appropriate command
over the data communications channel(s).
The status of hand reset LEDs is maintained by a back up storage capacitor in the event of an interruption to the
supply voltage.
Figure 2-7 LED Indication Label
2.8 Current Inputs

Four current inputs are provided on the Analogue Input module. Terminals are available for both 1 A and 5 A
inputs.
The current input is incorporated within the relay and is used for phase fault and earth fault protection.
Current is sampled at 1600 Hz for both 50 Hz and 60 Hz system frequencies. Protection and monitoring functions
of the relay use either the Fundamental Frequency RMS or the True RMS value of current appropriate to the
individual function.
The waveform recorder samples and displays current input waveforms at 1600 Hz.
The primary CT ratio used for the relay instruments can be set in the CT/VT configuration menu.

2.9 Binary Inputs

The binary inputs are opto-couplers operated from a suitably rated power supply.
Relays are fitted with 3 or 6 binary inputs (BI) depending on the variant. The user can assign any binary input to
any of the available functions (INPUT CONFIG > INPUT MATRIX).
Pick-up (PU) and Drop-off (DO) time delays are associated with each binary input. Where no pick-up time delay
has been applied the input may pick up due to induced AC voltage on the wiring connections (e.g. cross site
wiring). The default pick-up time of 20 ms provides AC immunity. Each input can be programmed independently.
Each input may be logically inverted to facilitate integration of the relay within the user scheme. When inverted the
relay indicates that the BI is energised when no voltage is applied. Inversion occurs before the PU and DO time
delay.
Each input may be mapped to any front Fascia indication LED and/or to any Binary output contact and can also
be used with the internal user programmable logic. This allows the relay to provide panel indications and alarms.
Each binary input is set by default to be read when the relay is in both the local or remote condition. A setting is
provided to allow the user to select if each individual input shall be read when the relay is in the local or remote
condition in the INPUT CONFIG > BINARY INPUT CONFIG menu.

2.10 Binary Outputs (Output Relays)

Relays are fitted with 3 or 6 binary outputs (BO). All outputs are fully user configurable and can be programmed to
operate from any or all of the available functions.
In the default mode of operation, binary outputs are self reset and remain energised for a user configurable
minimum time of up to 60 s. If required, the outputs can be programmed to operate as ‘hand reset’ or ‘pulsed’. If
the output is programmed to be ‘hand reset’ and ‘pulsed’ then the output will be ‘hand reset’ only.
The binary outputs can be used to operate the trip coils of the circuit breaker directly where the trip coil current
does not exceed the 'make and carry' contact rating. The circuit breaker auxiliary contacts or other in-series
auxiliary device must be used to break the trip coil current.
Any BO can be assigned as a ‘Trip Contact’ in the OUTPUT CONFIG > TRIP CONFIG menu. Operation of a ‘Trip
Contact’ will operate any LED or virtual assigned from the 'Trip Triggered feature in the same menu and will
initiate the fault record storage, actuate the ‘Trip Alert’ screen where enabled and CB Fail protection when
enabled.
Where a protection function is mapped to an output contact, the output contact can be configured to trigger when
the protection function picks-up rather than when it operates. Such output contacts are configured via the
OUTPUT CONFIG > BINARY OUTPUT CONFIG > Pickup Outputs setting.
Notes on Pulsed Outputs
When operated, the output will reset after a user configurable time of up to 60 s regardless of the initiating
condition.

Notes on Self Reset Outputs

Self reset operation has a minimum reset time of 100 ms.
With a failed breaker condition, the relay may remain operated until current flow is interrupted by an upstream
device. When the current is removed, the relay will then reset and attempt to interrupt trip coil current flowing via
its output contact. When this current level is above the break rating of the output contact, an auxiliary relay with
heavy-duty contacts should be utilised in the primary system to avoid damage to the relay.
Notes on Hand Reset Outputs – 86 Lockout
Any binary output can be programmed to provide an 86 lockout function by selecting it to be hand reset. Hand
reset outputs can be reset by either pressing the TEST/RESET► button, by energising a suitably programmed
binary input, or, by sending an appropriate command over the data communications channel(s).
On loss of the auxiliary supply hand-reset outputs will reset. When the auxiliary supply is
re-established the binary output will remain in the reset state unless the initiating condition is still present.
Notes on General Pickup
An output, General Pickup, is available to indicate that the pickup level has been exceeded for one or more
protection functions. Any protection function can be mapped to trigger this output in the OUTPUT CONFIG >
PICKUP CONFIG menu.

2.11 Virtual Input/Outputs

The relays have 8 virtual input/outputs these are internal binary stores. By assigning the status of data items like
starters, alarms, and equations to a virtual input/output, the status of these items can be used to fulfil higher levels
of functionality.
The status of various data items can be assigned to virtual inputs/outputs using the INPUT CONFIG > OUTPUT
MATRIX menu.
Virtual input/outputs can be used as inputs to various functions including blocks, inhibits, triggers, and alarms
using the INPUT CONFIG > INPUT MATRIX menu.
Virtual input/outputs can also be used as data items in equations.
The status of the virtual inputs and outputs is volatile i.e. not stored during power loss.

2.12 Self Monitoring

The relay incorporates a number of self-monitoring features. Each of these features can initiate a controlled reset
recovery sequence.
Supervision includes a power supply watchdog, code execution watchdog, memory checks by checksum, and
processor/ADC health checks. When all checks indicate the relay is operating correctly the ‘Protection Healthy’
LED is illuminated.
If an internal failure is detected, a message will be displayed. The relay will reset in an attempt to rectify the
failure. This will result in de-energisation of any binary output mapped to ‘protection healthy’ and flashing of the
protection healthy LED. If a successful reset is achieved by the relay, the LED and output contact will revert back
to normal operational mode and the relay will restart, therefore ensuring the circuit is protected for the maximum
time.
A start-up counter meter is provided to display the number of start-ups the relay has performed. Once the number
of start-ups has exceeded a set number, an alarm output can be given.
Figure 2-10 Start-up Counter Meter
Reset of the counter can be done from the meter or via a binary input or a command.
Various types of start-up are monitored by the relay:
1. power-on starts
2. expected starts (user initiated via communications)
3. unexpected starts (caused by the relay watchdog)
Any combination of these can be selected for the start-up count. This is done in the MAINTENANCE MENU >
START COUNT menu using the Start Types setting. All the start-up types selected (ticked) will be added to the
overall start-up count.
The number of restarts before the alarm output is raised is set in the MAINTENANCE MENU > START COUNT
menu using the Start Count Target setting.
When the number of relay start-ups reaches the target value an output is raised, OUTPUT MATRIX > Start
Count Alarm, which can be programmed to any combination of binary outputs, LED’s or virtual outputs.
The following screen-shot show the events which are generated when the relay restarts. The highlighted events
show the cause of the re-start. The event which comes next shows the type of restart followed by the relay:
Warm, Cold or Re-Start.
As a further safeguard, if the Relay performs a number of unexpected starts SYSTEM CONFIG>Unexpected
Restart Count in a given time SYSTEM CONFIG>Unexpected Restart Period, it can be configured using the
SYSTEM CONFIG>Unexpected Restart Blocking setting to remove itself from service. In this case the Relay
will display an error message:
|UNEXPECTED RESTART |
|COUNTS EXCEEDED! |
|DEVICE LOCKED OUT |
| |
--------------------
Figure 2-11 Unexpected Restarts Lockout Text
And enter a locked-up mode. In this mode the Relay will disable operation of all LED’s and Binary Outputs,
including Protection Healthy, all pushbuttons and any data communications.
Once the Relay has failed in this manner, it is non-recoverable at site and must be returned to the manufacturer
for repair.
A meter, Miscellaneous Meters>Unexpected Restarts, is provided to show how many Unexpected Restarts have
occurred during the previous Unexpected Restart Period. This is resettable from the front fascia.

2.12.1 Protection Healthy/Defective

When the relay has an auxiliary supply and it has successfully passed its self-checking procedure, then the front
fascia Protection Healthy LED is turned on.
A changeover or open contact can be mapped via the binary output matrix to provide an external protection
healthy signal.
A changeover or closed contact can be mapped via the binary output matrix to provide an external protection
defective signal. With the ‘Protection Healthy’ this contact is open. When the auxiliary supply is not applied to the
relay or a problem is detected within the relay then this output contact closes to provide external indication.

3.4 Current Protection: Cold Load (51C)

The setting of each shaped overcurrent element (51-n) can be inhibited and alternative ‘cold load’ settings (51c-n)
can be applied for a period following circuit switch in.
The Cold Load settings are applied after the circuit breaker has been open for longer than the Pick-Up Time
setting.
Following the circuit breaker closure, the ‘cold load’ overcurrent settings will revert to those defined in the Phase
Overcurrent menu (51-n) after either elapse of the Drop-Off Time setting or when the measured current falls
below the Reduced Current Level setting for a time in excess of Reduced Current Time setting.
A Circuit Breaker ‘Don’t Believe It’ (DBI) alarm condition, see section 4.3 is not acted on, causing the element to
remain operating in accordance with the relevant 51-n settings. Where the Reduced Current setting is set to OFF
reversion to 51-n settings will only occur at the end of the Drop-Off Time. If any element is picked up on expiry of
Drop-Off Time, the relay will issue a trip (and lockout if a recloser is present).
If the circuit breaker is re-opened before expiry of the Drop-Off Time the drop-off timer is held but not reset.
Resetting the timer for each trip could result in damaging levels of current flowing for a prolonged period during a
rapid sequence of trips/closes.
Cold load trips use the same binary output(s) as the associated 51-n element.

3.9 Thermal Overload (49)

The relay provides a thermal overload suitable for the protection of static plant. Phase segregated elements are
provided. The temperature of the protected equipment is not measured directly. Instead, thermal overload
conditions are calculated using the measure True RMS current.
Should the current rise above the 49 Overload Setting for a defined time an output signal will be initiated. The
operating time is a function of thermal time constant 49 Time Constant and previous current levels.
Operate Time (t):-
 I 2 − I 2P 
t = τ × ln  2 2
 I − (k × I B ) 
Where
T = Time in minutes
τ = 49 Time Constant setting (minutes)

In = Log Natural
I = measured current
IP = Previous steady state current level
k = Constant
IB = Basic current, typically the same as In
k.IB = 49 Overload Setting (Iθ)
Additionally, an alarm can be given if the thermal state of the system exceeds a specified percentage of the
protected equipment’s thermal capacity 49 Capacity Alarm setting.
For the heating curve:
I2 −t
θ= 2
⋅ (1 − e τ
) ×100%

Where: θ = thermal state at time t

I = measured thermal current
Iθ = 49 Overload setting (or k.IB)
The final steady state thermal condition can be predicted for any steady state value of input current where t >τ,

θF = × 100%
Iθ2
Where: θF = final thermal state before disconnection of device
49 Overload Setting Iθ is expressed as a multiple of the relay nominal current and is equivalent to the factor k.IB
as defined in the IEC255-8 thermal operating characteristics. It is the value of current above which 100% of
thermal capacity will be reached after a period of time and it is therefore normally set slightly above the full load
current of the protected device.

Section 4: Control and Logic Functions
4.1 Auto-Reclose (79) Optional Function

4.1.1 Overview
A high proportion of faults on an Overhead Line (OHL) network are transient. These faults can be cleared and the
network restored quickly by using Instantaneous (Fast) Protection trips followed by an automated sequence of
Circuit Breaker reclosures after the line has been dead for a short time, this ‘deadtime’ allows the fault current arc
to fully extinguish.
Typically this auto reclose (AR) sequence of Instantaneous Trip(s) and Reclose Delays (Dead times) followed by
Delayed Trip(s) provide the automatic optimum method of clearing all types of fault i.e. both Transient and
Permanent, as quickly as possible and achieving the desired outcome of keeping as much of the Network in-
service as possible.
The AR function, therefore, has to:
Control the type of Protection trip applied at each stage (shot) of a sequence
Control the Auto Reclose of the Circuit Breaker to provide the necessary network Dead times, to allow
time for Arc extinction
Co-ordinate its Protection and Auto Reclose sequence with other fault clearing devices.
A typical sequence would be – 2 Instantaneous/Highset+1Delayed/HighSet Trips with 1 sec & 10 sec dead times.
The Autoreclose feature may be switched in and out of service by a number of methods, these are:
Changing Relay Setting 79 Autoreclose ENABLE/DISABLE (AUTORECLOSE CONFIG menu)
Enable/Disable in the CONTROL MODE accessed from the fascia
Via the data communications channel(s),
From a 79 OUT binary input. Note the 79 OUT binary input has priority over the 79 IN binary input - if
both are raised the auto-reclose will be Out of Service.
Knowledge of the CB position status is integral to the auto-reclose functionality. CB auxiliary switches must be
connected to CB Closed and CB Open binary inputs. A circuit breaker’s service status is determined by its
position i.e. from the binary inputs programmed CB Open and CB Closed. The circuit breaker is defined as being
in service when it is closed. The circuit memory functionality prevents autoreclosing when the line is de-energised,
or normally open.
AR is started by a valid protection operation that is internally mapped to trip in the 79 Autoreclose protection menu
or an external trip received via a binary input 79 Ext Trip, while the associated circuit breaker is in service.
The transition from AR started to deadtime initiation takes place when the CB has opened and the protection
pickups have reset and the trip relay has reset. If any of these do not occur within the 79 Sequence Fail Timer
setting the relay will Lockout. This prevents the AR being primed indefinitely. 79 Sequence Fail Timer can be
switched to 0 (= OFF).
Once an AR sequence has been initiated, up to 4 reclose operations can be attempted before the AR is locked-
out. The relay is programmed to initiate a number of AR attempts, the number is determined by 79 Num Shots.
Each reclosure (shot) is preceded by a time delay - 79 Elem Deadtime n - giving transient faults time to clear.
Separate dead-time settings are provided for each of the 4 recloses and for each of the four fault types – P/F, E/F,
SEF and External.
Once a CB has reclosed and remained closed for a specified time period (the Reclaim time), the AR sequence is
re-initialised and a Successful Close output issued. A single, common Reclaim time is used (Reclaim Timer).
When an auto-reclose sequence does not result in a successful reclosure the relay goes to the lockout state.

4.1.2 Auto Reclose sequences

The CONTROL & LOGIC>AUTO RECLOSE PROT’N and CONTROL & LOGIC>AUTORECLOSE CONFIG’
menus, allow the user to set independent Protection and Auto Reclose sequences for each type of fault i.e. Phase
Fault (P/F), Derived/Measured Earth Fault (E/F), Sensitive Earth Fault (SEF) or External Protections (EXTERN).
Each Auto Reclose sequence can be user set to up to four-shots i.e. five trips + four reclose sequence, with
independently configurable type of Protection Trip. Overcurrent and earth fault elements can be assigned to any
combination of Fast (Inst), Delayed or highset (HS) trips. Deadtime Delay time settings are independent for
each AR shot. The user has programming options for Auto Reclose Sequences up to the maximum shot count
i.e.:-
Inst or Delayed Trip 1 + (DeadTime 1: 0.1s-14400s)
+ Inst or Delayed Trip 2 + (DeadTime 2: 0.1s-14400s)
+ Inst or Delayed Trip 5 – Lockout.
The AR function recognizes developing faults and, as the shot count advances, automatically applies the correct
type of Protection and associated Dead time for that fault-type at that point in the sequence.
A typical sequence would consist of two Inst trips followed by at least one Delayed trip. This sequence enables
transient faults to be cleared quickly by the Inst trip(s) and permanent fault to be cleared by the combined
Delayed trip. The delayed trip must be ‘graded’ with other Recloser/CB’s to ensure system discrimination is
maintained, ie.. that as much of the system as possible is live after the fault is cleared.
A HS trips to lockout setting is provided such that when the number of operations of elements assigned as HS
trips reach the setting the relay will go to lockout.
The number of Shots (Closes) is user programmable, note: - only one Shot Counter is used to advance the
sequence, the Controller selects the next Protection characteristic/Dead time according to the type of the last Trip
in the sequence e.g. PF, EF, SEF or EXTERNAL.
Reclose Dead Time
User programmable dead times are available for each protection trip operation.
The dead time is initiated when the trip output contact reset, the pickup is reset and the CB is open.
The CB close output relay is energised after the dead time has elapsed.
Figure 4-1 Typical AR Sequence with 3 Inst and 1 Delayed trip
4.1.3 Autoreclose Prot’n Menu

This menu presents the Overcurrent Protection elements available for each type of Fault i.e. P/F, E/F (N/G) or
SEF and allows the user to select those that are to be applied as Inst trips; those that are to be applied as

Delayed Trips; and those that are to be applied as HS Trips (HighSet), as required by the selected sequence.
There is no corresponding setting for External as the External protection type is not normally controlled by the
Auto Reclose Relay. The resultant configuration enables the Auto Reclose function to correctly apply the required
Protection for each shot in a sequence.
4.1.4 Autoreclose Config Menu

This menu allows the following settings to be made:-
79 Autoreclose Enabled turns ON all AutoReclose Functions.

79 Num Shots Sets the allowed number of AutoReclose attempts in a sequence.
79 Retry Enable Enabled configures the relay to perform further attempts to automatically Close the
Circuit Breaker where the CB has initially failed to close in response to a Close
command. If the first attempt fails the relay will wait for the 79 Retry Interval to expire
then attempt to Close the CB again.
79 Retry Attempts Sets the maximum number of retry attempts.
79 Retry Interval Sets the time delay between retry attempts.
79 Reclose Blocked
Delay If the CB is not ready to receive a Close command or if system conditions are such
that the CB should not be closed immediately e.g. a close-spring is not charged, then
a Binary input mapped to Reclose Block can be raised and the Close pulse will not be
issued but will be held-back. The 79 Reclose Blocked Delay sets the time Reclose
Block is allowed to be raised, if this time delay expires the Relay will go to Lockout. If
Reclose Block is cleared, before this time expires, then the CB Close pulse will be
issued at that point in time. Dead Time + Reclose Blocked Delay = Lockout.
79 Sequence Fail Timer Sets the time that AutoReclose start can be primed. Where this time expires before all
the DAR start signals are not received i.e. the CB has opened, protection pickups have
reset and the trip relay has reset, the Relay goes to Lockout.
79 Sequence Co-Ord When set to Enabled the Relay will co-ordinate its sequence and shot count such that
it automatically keeps in step with downstream devices as they advance through their
sequence. The Relay detects that a pickup has operated but has dropped-off before its
associated time delay has expired, it then increments its Shot count and advances to
the next stage of the auto-reclose sequence without issuing a trip, this is repeated as
long as the fault is being cleared by the downstream device such that the Relay moves
through the sequence bypassing the INST Trips and moving on to the Delayed Trip to
maintain Grading margins.
Notes on the ‘Lockout’ State
The Lockout state can be reached for a number of reasons. Lockout will occur for the following: -
• At the end of the 79 Sequence Fail Timer.
• At the end of the Reclaim timer if the CB is in the open position.
• A protection operates during the final Reclaim time.
• If a Close Pulse is given and the CB fails to close.
• The 79 Lockout binary input is active.
• At the end of the 79 Reclose Blocked Delay due to presence of a persistent Block signal.
• When the 79 Elem HS Trips to Lockout count is reached.
• When the 79 Elem Delayed Trips to Lockout count is reached.
An alarm output is provided to indicate last trip to lockout.

Once lockout has occurred, an alarm (79 Lockout) is issued and all further Close commands, except manual
close, are inhibited.
If the Lockout command is received while a Manual Close operation is in progress, the feature is immediately
locked-out.

Once the Lockout condition has been reached, it will be maintained until reset. The following will reset lockout: -
• By a Manual Close command, from fascia, comms or Close CB binary input.
• By a 79 Reset Lockout binary input, provided there is no signal present that will cause
Lockout.
• At the end of the 79 Minimum LO Delay time setting if 79 Reset LO by Timer is selected to
ENABLED, provided there is no signal present which will cause Lockout.
• Where Lockout was entered by an A/R Out signal during an Autoreclose sequence then a 79
In signal must be received before Lockout can reset.
• By the CB Closed binary input, provided there is no signal present which will cause Lockout.
The Lockout condition has a delayed drop-off of 2s. The Lockout condition can not be reset if there is an active
lockout input.

4.1.5 P/F Shots sub-menu

This menu allows the Phase fault trip/reclose sequence to be parameterized:-
79 P/F Prot’n Trip1 The first protection Trip in the P/F sequence can be set to either Inst or Delayed.
79 P/F Deadtime 1 Sets the first Reclose Delay (Dead time) in the P/F sequence.
79 P/F Prot’n Trip2 The second protection Trip in the P/F sequence can be set to either Inst or Delayed.
79 P/F Deadtime 2 Sets the second Reclose Delay (Dead time) in the P/F sequence.
79 P/F Prot’n Trip3 The third protection Trip in the P/F sequence can be set to either Inst or Delayed.
79 P/F Deadtime 3 Sets the third Reclose Delay (Dead time) in the P/F sequence.
79 P/F Prot’n Trip 4 The fourth protection Trip in the P/F sequence can be set to either Inst or Delayed.
79 P/F Deadtime 4 Sets the fourth Reclose Delay (Dead time) in the P/F sequence.
79 P/F Prot’n Trip5 The fifth and last protection Trip in the P/F sequence can be set to either Inst or
Delayed.
79 P/F HighSet Trips to Lockout Sets the number of allowed HighSet trips. The relay will go to Lockout on the
last HighSet Trip. This function can be used to limit the duration and number of high
current trips that the Circuit Breaker is required to perform, if the fault is permanent
and close to the Circuit Breaker then there is no point in forcing a number of Delayed
Trips before the Relay goes to Lockout – that sequence will be truncated.
79 P/F Delayed Trips to Lockout Sets the number of allowed Delayed trips, Relay will go to Lockout on the last
Delayed Trip. This function limits the number of Delayed trips that the Relay can
perform when the Instantaneous protection Elements are externally inhibited for
system operating reasons - sequences are truncated.
4.1.6 E/F Shots sub-menu

This menu allows the Earth Fault trip/reclose sequence to be parameterized:-
As above but E/F settings.
4.1.7 SEF Shots sub-menu

This menu allows the Sensitive Earth trip/reclose sequence to be parameterized:-
As above but SEF Settings, Note: - SEF does not have HighSets

4.1.8 Extern Shots sub-menu

This menu allows the External Protection auto-reclose sequence to be parameterized:-
79 P/F Prot’n Trip1 Not Blocked/Blocked - Blocked raises an output which can be mapped to a Binary
output to Block an External Protection’s Trip Output.
79 P/F Deadtime 1 Sets the first Reclose Delay ( Deadtime) for the External sequence.
Output to Block an External Protection’s second Trip output.
79 P/F Deadtime 2 Sets the second Reclose Delay ( Deadtime) in the External sequence.
output to Block an External Protection’s third Trip Output.
79 P/F Deadtime 3 Sets the third Reclose Delay (Deadtime) in the External sequence.
output to Block an External Protection’s fourth Trip Output.
79 P/F Deadtime 4 Sets the fourth Reclose Delay (Deadtime) in the External sequence.
output to Block an External Protection’s fifth Trip Output.
79 P/F Extern Trips to Lockout - Sets the number of allowed External protection’ trips, Relay will go to Lockout
on the last Trip.
These settings allow the user to set-up a separate AutoReclose sequence for external protection(s) having a
different sequence to P/F, E/F or SEF protections. The ‘ Blocked ‘ setting allows the Autoreclose sequence to
raise an output at any point in the sequence to Block further Trips by the External Protection thus allowing the
Overcurrent P/F or Earth Fault or SEF elements to apply Overcurrent Grading to clear the fault.
Other Protection Elements in the Relay can also be the cause of trips and it may be that AutoReclose is required;
the External AutoReclose sequence can be applied for this purpose. By setting-up internal Quick Logic
equation(s) the user can define and set what should occur when any one of these other elements operates.

4.2 Quick Logic

The ‘Quick Logic’ feature allows the user to input up to 4 logic equations (E1 to E4) in text format. Equations can
be entered using Reydisp or at the relay fascia.
Each logic equation is built up from text representing the control characters. Each can be up to 20 characters
long. The allowable characters are:
0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 Digit

When the count value = En Counter Target the output of the counter (En) = 1 and this value is held until the
initiating conditions are removed when En is instantaneously reset.
The output of En is assigned in the OUTPUT CONFIG > OUTPUT MATRIX menu where it can be programmed to
any Binary Output (O), LED (L) or Virtual Input/Output (V) combination.
Protection functions can be used in Quick Logic by mapping them to a Virtual Input/Output.

4.3 Manual CB Control

A Manual Close Command can be initiated in one of four ways: via a Close CB binary input, via the
data communication Channel(s) or CB close push button or from the relay CONTROL MODE menu. It causes an
instantaneous operation via Manual Close CB binary output, over-riding any DAR sequence in progress.
Repeated Manual Closes are avoided by checking for Positive edge triggers. Even if the Manual Close input is
constantly energised the relay will only attempt one close.
A Manual Close will initiate Line Check if Line Check Trip is enabled. If a fault appears on the line during the
Close Pulse or during the Reclaim Time with Line Check enabled, the relay will initiate a Trip and Lockout. This
prevents a CB being repeatedly closed onto a faulted line. Where Line Check Trip = DELAYED then
instantaneous protection is inhibited until the reclaim time has elapsed.
Manual Close resets Lockout, if the conditions that caused Lockout have reset, i.e. there is no trip or Lockout
input present.
Manual Close cannot proceed if there is a Lockout input present.
With the Autoreclose function set to Disabled the Manual Close control is still active.
If a fault appears on the line during the Close Pulse or during the Reclaim Time with protection function is
enabled, the relay will initiate a trip. If the there is no fault appears during the reclaim time, then 'Successful Man
Close' indication will be initiated.
CB Controls Latched
CB controls for manually closing and tripping can be latched for extra security.
With Reset operation, the control resets when the binary input drops off. This can lead to multiple control restarts
due to bounce on the binary input signal.
With Latch operation, the close or trip sequence always continues to completion (or sequence failure) and bounce
on the binary input is ignored.
Reset operation can be useful, however, as it allows a close or trip sequence to be aborted by dropping off the
binary input signal.
Close CB Delay
The Close CB Delay is applicable to manual CB close commands received through a Close CB binary input or
via the Control Menu. The status of this delay is displayed on the relay fascia as it decrements towards zero. Only
when the delay reaches zero will the close command be issued and related functionality initiated.
Blocked Close Delay
The close command may be delayed by a Block Close CB signal applied to a binary input. This causes the
feature to pause before it issues the CB close command and can be used, for example, to delay CB closure until
the CB energy has reached an acceptable level. If the Block signal has not been removed before the end of the
defined time, Blocked Close Delay, the relay will go to the lockout state. The output Close CB Blocked
indicates this condition.
Open CB Delay
The Open CB Delay setting is applicable to CB trip commands received through an Open CB binary input or via
the Control Menu. Operation of the Open CB binary output is delayed by the Open CB Delay setting. The status
of this delay is displayed on the relay fascia as it decrements towards zero. Only when the delay reaches zero will
the trip command be issued and related functionality initiated.
It should be noted that a CB trip initiated by an Open CB command is fundamentally different from a CB trip
initiated by a protection function. A CB trip caused by a CB Open command will not initiate functionality such as
2
circuit-breaker fail, fault data storage, I t measurement and operation counters.

4.4 Circuit Breaker (CB)

This menu includes relay settings applicable to both manual close (MC) and auto-reclose (AR) functionality.
‘CB Failed To Open’ and ‘CB Failed to Close’ features are used to confirm that a CB has not responded correctly
to each Trip and Close Command. If a CB fails to operate, the DAR feature will go to lockout.
Close CB Pulse
The duration of the CB Close Pulse is settable to allow a range of CBs to be used. . The Close CB Pulse must
be long enough for the CB to physically close.
The Close pulse will be terminated if any protection pick-up operates or a trip occurs. This is to prevent Close and
Trip Command pulses existing simultaneously. A 79 Close Onto Fault output is given if a pick-up or trip operates
during the Close Pulse. This can be independently wired to Lockout.
The output CB Fail to Close is issued if the CB is not closed at the end of the close pulse, Close CB Pulse.
Reclaim Timer
The ‘Reclaim time’ will start each time a Close Pulse has timed out and the CB has closed.
Where a protection pickup is raised during the reclaim time the relay advances to the next part of the reclose
sequence.
The relay goes to the Lockout state if the CB is open at the end of the reclaim time or a protection operates during
the final reclaim time.
CB Control Trip Time
When this is set to Enabled, the relay will measure the CB trip time following operation of either a CB control
open output or a CB Trip output. The trip time is displayed by the MAINTENANCE METERS > CB Trip Time
meter.
When this is set to Disabled, the relay will measure the trip time following operation of a CB Trip output only.
Operation of a CB control open output will then not cause the trip time to be measured.
Open CB Pulse
The duration of the CB open pulse is user settable to allow a range of CBs to be used.
The CB open pulse must be long enough for the CB to physically open.
CB Travel Alarm
The CB Open and CB Closed binary inputs are continually monitored to track the CB Status.
The CB should only ever be in 3 states:

CB Status CB Open CB Closed
binary input binary input
CB is Open 1 0
CB is Closed 0 1
CB is Travelling between the above 2 states 0 0
The Relay goes to Lockout and the CB Alarm output is given where the Travelling condition exists for longer than
the CB Travel Alarm setting.
An instantaneous CB Alarm is given for a 1/1 state – i.e. where the CB indicates it is both Open and Closed at
the same time.
CB DBI Delay
The CB Open and CB Closed binary inputs are continually monitored to track the CB Status.
A Don’t Believe it (DBI) condition exists for a 1/1 state– i.e. where the CB indicates it is both Open and Closed at
the same time
The Relay goes to Lockout and the CB Alarm output is given where the DBI condition exists for longer than the
CB DBI Delay setting.

Hot Line In/Out
When ‘Hot Line’ is enabled all auto reclose sequences are inhibited and any fault causes an instantaneous trip to
lockout.

79 Minimum LO Delay (Only in Auto-reclose models)

Sets the time that the Relay’s Lockout condition is maintained. After the last allowed Trip operation in a specific
sequence the Circuit Breaker will be left locked-out in the open position and can only be closed by manual or
remote SCADA operation. The 79 Minimum Lockout Delay timer can be set to delay a too-fast manual close
after lockout, this prevents an operator from manually closing onto the same fault too quickly and thus performing
multiple sequences and possibly burning-out Plant.
79 Reset LO by Timer(Only in Auto-reclose models)
Set to Enabled this ensures that the Lockout condition is reset when the timer expires, Lockout indication will be
cleared; otherwise, set to Disabled, the Lockout condition will be maintained until the CB is Closed by a Close
command.
Trip Time Alarm
The CB Trip Time meter displays the measured time between the trip being issued and the CB auxiliary contacts
changing state. If this measured time exceeds the Trip Time Alarm time, a Trip Time Alarm output is issued.
Trip Time Adjust
This allows for the internal delays caused by the relay – especially the delay before a binary input operates – to
be subtracted from the measured CB trip time. This gives a more accurate measurement of the time it took for the
CB to actually trip.

Section 5: Supervision Functions
5.1 Circuit Breaker Failure (50BF)

The circuit breaker fail function has two time delayed outputs that can be used for combinations of
re-tripping or back-tripping. CB fail outputs are given after elapse of the 50BF-1 Delay or
50BF-2 Delay settings. The two timers run concurrently.
The circuit breaker fail protection time delays are initiated either from:
An output Trip Contact of the relay (MENU: OUTPUT CONFIG\TRIP CONFIG\Trip Contacts), or
A binary or virtual input assigned to 50BF Ext Trig (MENU: INPUT CONFIG\INPUT MATRIX\ 50BF Ext Trig).
A binary or virtual input assigned to 50BF Mech Trip (MENU: INPUT CONFIG\INPUT MATRIX\50BF Mech Trip).
CB fail outputs will be issued by providing any of the 3 phase currents are above the 50BF Setting or the current
in the fourth CT is above 50BF-I4 for longer than the 50BF-n Delay setting, or for a mechanical protection trip the
circuit breaker is still closed when the 50BF-n Delay setting has expired – indicating that the fault has not been
cleared.
Both 50BF-1 and 50BF-2 can be mapped to any output contact or LED.
If the CB Faulty input (MENU: INPUT CONFIG\INPUT MATRIX\CB Faulty) is energised when a CB trip is given
the time delays 50BF-n Delay will be by-passed and the output given immediately.
Operation of the CB Fail elements can be inhibited from:

5.2 2nd Harmonic Block/Inrush Restraint (81HBL2) Phase

Elements Only
Inrush restraint detector elements are provided, these monitor the line currents.
The inrush restraint detector can be used to block the operation of selected elements during transformer
magnetising inrush conditions.
The 81HBL2 Bias setting allows the user to select between Phase, Sum and Cross methods of measurement:
Phase Each phase is inhibited separately.
Sum With this method the square root of the sum of the squares of the second harmonic in each
phase is compared to each operate current individually.
Cross All phases are inhibited when any phase detects an inrush condition.
An output is given where the measured value of the second harmonic component is above the 81HBL2 setting.
NOTE: The output should be configured as either "Pulse output" or "Hand-reset output" only.

Section 6: Other Features
6.1 Data Communications

Two communication ports, COM1 and COM2 are provided. RS485 connections are available on the terminal
blocks at the rear of the relay (COM1). A USB port, (COM 2) is provided at the front of the relay for local access
using a PC.
The rear com1 port can be selected to operate as a local or a remote port operation.
Communication is compatible with Modbus RTU, IEC 60870-5-103 FT 1.2, and DNP 3.0 transmission and
application standards.
For communication with the relay via a PC (personal computer) a user-friendly software package, Reydisp is
available to allow transfer of relay settings, waveform records, event records, fault data records,
Instruments/meters, and control functions. Reydisp is compatible with IEC 60870-5-103.
6.1.1 Communication Ports
6.1.1.1 USB Interface

The USB communication port is connected using a standard USB cable with a type B connection to the relay and
type A to the PC.
The PC will require a suitable USB driver to be installed, this will be carried out automatically when the Reydisp
software is installed. When the Reydisp software is running, with the USB cable connected to a device, an
additional connection is shown in the Reydisp connection window, connections to the USB port are not shown
when they are not connected.
The USB communication interface on the relay is labelled Com 2 and its associated settings are located in the
Data communications menu. When connecting to Reydisp using this connection the default settings can be used
without the need to first change any settings, otherwise the Com 2 port must be set to IEC60870-5-103 (the relay
address and baud rate do not need to be set).

6.1.1.2 RS485 Interface

The RS485 communication port is located on the rear of the relay and can be connected using a suitable RS485
120 ohm screened twisted pair cable.
The RS485 electrical connection can be used in a single or multi-drop configuration. The RS485 master must
support and use the Auto Device Enable (ADE) feature. The last device in the connection must be terminated
correctly in accordance with the master device driving the connection. The relays are fitted with an internal
terminating resistor which can be connected between A and B by fitting an external wire loop between terminals
18 and 20 on the power supply module.
The maximum number of relays that can be connected to the bus is 64.
The following settings must be configured via the relay fascia when using the RS485 interface. The shaded
settings are only visible when DNP3.0 is selected.

6.2 CB Maintenance
6.2.1 Output Matrix Test
The feature is only visible from the Relay fascia and allows the user to operate the relays functions. The test of
the function will automatically operate any Binary Inputs or LED’s already assigned to that function.
Any protection function which is enabled in the setting menu will appear in the Output Matrix Test.
6.2.2 CB Counters
The following CB maintenance counters are provided:
CB Total Trip Count: Increments on each trip command issued.
CB Total Trip Manual Open Selects whether the CB Total Trip Counter is incremented for
Manual Open Operations. If disabled, the CB Total Counter
will only increment for protection trip commands.
CB Delta Trip Count: Additional counter which can be reset independently of the
Total Trip Counter. This can be used, for example, for
recording trip operations between visits to a substation.
CB Delta Trip Manual Open Selects whether the CB Delta Trip Counter is incremented for
Manual Open Operations. If disabled, the CB Delta Trip
Counter will only increment for protection trip commands.
CB Count to AR Block: (Only in Auto-reclose Displays the number of CB trips experienced by the CB
models) before the AR is blocked. When the target is reached the
relay will only do 1 Delayed Trip to Lockout. An output is
available to reset this value.
CB Count to AR Block Manual Open: (Only in Selects whether the CB Count to AR Block is incremented for
Auto-reclose models) Manual Open Operations. If disabled, the CB Count to AR
Block will only increment for protection trip commands.
CB Frequent Ops Count Logs the number of trip operations in a rolling window period
of one hour. An output is available to reset this counter.
Binary outputs can be mapped to each of the above counters, these outputs are energised when the user
defined Count Target or Alarm Limit is reached.
6.2.3 I2t CB Wear

2
An I t counter is also included and this can provide an estimation of contact wear and maintenance requirements.
2
The algorithm works on a per phase basis, measuring the arcing current during faults. The I t value at the time of
trip is added to the previously stored value and an alarm is given when any one of the three phase running counts
exceeds the set Alarm limit. The t value is the time between CB contacts separation when an arc is formed,
Separation Time, and the CB Clearance time.
2
The I t value can also triggered and reset from a binary input or command.
6.3 Data Storage

6.3.1 General
The relay stores three types of data- relay event records, analogue/digital waveform records, and fault records.
Data records are backed up in non-volatile memory and are permanently stored even in the event of loss of
auxiliary supply voltage. The data storage menu contains the settings for the Demand, Waveform, and Fault
storage features.
6.3.2 Demand
Maximum, minimum and mean values of line currents, voltages and power (where applicable) are available as
instruments which can be read in the relay INSTRUMENTS MENU or via Reydisp.
The Gn Demand Window setting defines the maximum period of time over which the demand values are valid. A
new set of demand values is established after expiry of the set time.

The Gn Demand Window Type can be set to FIXED or PEAK or ROLLING.

When set to FIXED the maximum, minimum and mean values demand statistics are calculated over
fixed Window duration. At the end of each window the internal statistics
are reset and a new window is started.
When set to PEAK the maximum and minimum values since the feature was reset are recorded.
When set to ROLLING the maximum, minimum and mean values demand statistics are calculated over
a moving Window duration. The internal statistics
are updated when the window advances every Updated Period.
The statistics can be reset from a binary input or communication command, after a reset the update period and
window are immediately restarted.
6.3.3 Event Records

The event recorder feature allows the time tagging of any change of state (Event) in the relay. As an event
occurs, the actual event condition is logged as a record along with a time and date stamp to a resolution of 1 ms.
There is capacity for a maximum of 1000 event records that can be stored in the relay and when the event buffer
is full any new record will over-write the oldest. Stored events can be erased using the DATA STORAGE > Clear
Events setting or from Reydisp.
The following events are logged:
• Change of state of Binary outputs
• Change of state of Binary inputs
• Change of settings and settings group
• Change of state of any of the control functions of the relay
• Protection element operation
All events can be uploaded over the data communications channel(s) and can be displayed in the ‘Reydisp’
package in chronological order allowing the sequence of events to be viewed. Events can be selected to be made
available spontaneously to an IEC 60870-5-103, Modbus RTU, or DNP 3.0 compliant control system. The function
number and event number can also be changed. The events are selected and edited using the Reydisp software
tool.
6.3.4 Waveform Records

Relay waveform storage can be triggered either by user selecting the relay operations from the relay fascia from a
suitably programmed binary input or via the data communications channel(s). The stored analogue and digital
waveforms illustrates the system and relay conditions at the time of trigger. An output is provided to indicate
when a new record has been stored.
A waveform can also be stored from the fascia using the DATA STORAGE/Waveform Storage > Trigger
Waveform setting.
In total, the relay provides 15 s of waveform storage; this is user selectable to 15 Rec x 1 Sec,
7 Rec x 2 Sec, 3 Rec x 5 Sec, 1 Rec x 15 Sec records. When the waveform recorder buffer is full any new
waveform record will over-write the oldest. The most recent record is Waveform 1.
As well as defining the stored waveform record duration, the user can select the percentage of the waveform
storage prior to triggering.
Waveforms are sampled at a rate of 1600 Hz.
Stored waveforms can be erased using the DATA STORAGE > Clear Waveforms setting or from Reydisp.
6.3.5 Fault Records

Up to fifteen fault records can be stored and displayed on the Fascia LCD. Fault records can be triggered by user
selected via relay operations or via a suitably programmed binary input. An output is provided to indicate when a
new record has been stored.
Fault records provide a summary of the relay status at the time of trip, i.e. the element that issued the trip, any
elements that were picked up, the fault type, LED indications, date and time. The Max Fault Rec. Time setting
sets the time period from fault trigger during which the operation of any LEDs is recorded.
The relay can be set to automatically display the fault record on the LCD when a fault occurs by enabling the
SYSTEM CONFIG > Trip Alert setting. When the trip alert is enabled the fault record will be displayed until the
fault is removed.

When examined together the event records and the fault records will detail the full sequence of events leading to
a trip.
Fault records are stored in a rolling buffer, with the oldest faults overwritten. The fault storage can be cleared with
the DATA STORAGE > Clear Faults setting or from Reydisp.
6.3.6 Disk Activity Warning

The Data Storage facilities offered by the Relay involve archiving a huge amount of data to non-volatile memory.
Since such functionality is always secondary to the Protection functionality offered by the Relay, this means that
data transfers can take significant amounts of time; perhaps several minutes. If the Relay is power-cycled during
a storage cycle, some of the data will be lost. For this reason, the Relay can provide a visual warning (at the top-
right position of the LCD) that data storage is taking place:
The 'œ' disk symbol shows that the copying of Events, Waveform Records or Fault Records, to non volatile disk
storage, is currently in progress.
Whether this symbol is displayed or not is set by the SYS CONFIG > Disk Activity Symbol setting.
To avoid such data archiving causing a sluggish response of the HMI during Testing or Commissioning – when a
considerable number of new Data records are likely to be created – it is possible to temporarily suspend it. The
duration of this block is set by the SYS CONFIG > Archiver Blocking Time setting. Once this Time has elapsed,
the block is removed and all stored data will be archived as usual.
The 'A' symbol at the top-right position of the LCD indicates that new Events, Waveform Records or Fault
Records are currently being held in volatile RAM and the archiving, to non-volatile flash disk storage, is being
temporarily blocked.

6.4 Metering
The metering feature provides real-time data available from the relay fascia in the ‘Instruments Mode’ or via the
data communications interface.
The primary values are calculated using the CT ratios set in the CT/VT Config menu.
The text displayed in the relays ‘Instruments Mode’ associated with each value can be changed from the default
text using the Reydisp software tool.
The user can add the meters that are most commonly viewed to a ‘Favourites’ window by pressing ‘ENTER’ key
when viewing a meter. The relay will scroll through these meters at an interval set in the System Config/
Favourite Meters Timer menu.
6.5 Operating Mode

The relay has three operating modes - Local, Remote, and Out of Service. The following table identifies the
functions operation in each mode.
The modes can be selected by the following methods:
SYSTEM CONFIG > OPERATING MODE setting, a Binary Input or Command

Setting Information Enabled Enabled Enabled

6.6 Control Mode

This mode provides convenient access to commonly used relay control and test functions. When any of the items
listed in the control menu are selected control is initiated by pressing the ENTER key. The user is prompted to
confirm the action, again by pressing the ENTER key, before the command is executed.
Note that a CB must be in a Closed state before an Open command will be accepted. And that a CB must be in
an Open state before a Close command will be accepted. If not, the Relay reports that the requested command is
‘Interlocked’.
Note also that switching a protection function IN/OUT via the Control Menu will not change that
function’s ENABLED/DISABLED setting. The Control Menu selection will over-ride the setting, however.
Control Mode commands are password protected using the Control Password function, see Section 6.9.
6.7 Real Time Clock

Time and date can be set either via the relay fascia using appropriate commands in the System Config menu or
via the data communications channel(s). Time and date are maintained while the relay is de-energised by a back
up storage capacitor. The length of time for which this data will be maintained will depend on such things as
temperature, length of time in service, etc. However the data will be maintained for a minimum of 1.0 day.
In order to maintain synchronism within a substation, the relay can be synchronised to the nearest second or
minute using the communications interface, or a binary input.
The devices without an external synchronization can have a maximum drift of ±2 s/day. The following attribute is
applicable only when no synchronization signal (e.g. IEC 60870-5-103) is received.
Attribute Value
Accuracy (-10 °C to 60°C) ±60 p.p.m
The default date is set at 01/01/2000 deliberately to indicate the date has not yet been set. When editing the
Time, only the hours and minutes can be edited. When the user presses ENTER after editing the seconds are
zeroed and the clock begins running.
6.7.1 Time Synchronisation – Data Communication Interface

Where the data communications channel(s) is connected the relay can be directly time synchronised using the
global time synchronisation. This can be from a dedicated substation automation system or from ‘Reydisp
Evolution’ communications support software.
6.7.2 Time Synchronisation – Binary Input

A binary input can be mapped Clock Sync from BI. The seconds or minutes will be rounded up or down to the
nearest vale when the BI is energised. This input is leading edge triggered.
6.8 Settings Groups

The relay provides four groups of settings – Group number (Gn) 1 to 2. At any one time, only one group of
settings can be ‘active’ – SYSTEM CONFIG >Active Group setting.
It is possible to edit one group while the relay operates in accordance with settings from another ‘active’ group
using the View/Edit Group setting.
Some settings are independent of the active group setting i.e. they apply to all settings groups. This is indicated
on the top line of the relay LCD, where only the Active Group No. is identified. Where settings are group
dependent this is indicated on the top line of the LCD by both the Active Group No. and the View Group No.
being displayed.
A change of settings group can be achieved both locally at the relay fascia and remotely over the data
communications channel(s) or via a binary input. When using a binary input an alternative settings group is
selected only whilst the input is energised (Select Grp Mode: Level triggered) or latches into the selected group
after energisation of the input (Select Grp Mode: Edge triggered).
Settings are stored in a non-volatile memory.

6.9 Password Feature

The relay incorporates two levels of password protection - one for settings, the other for control functions.
The programmable password feature enables the user to enter a 4 character alpha-numeric code to secure
access to the relay functions. The relay is supplied with the passwords set to NONE, i.e. the password feature is
disabled. The password must be entered twice as a security measure against the accidental changes. Once a
password has been entered then it will be required thereafter to change settings or initiate control commands.
Passwords can be de-activated by using the password to gain access and by entering the password NONE.
Again this must be entered twice to deactivate the security system.
As soon as the user attempts to change a setting or initiate control the password is requested before any changes
are allowed. Once the password has been validated, the user is ‘logged on’ and any further changes can be
made without re-entering the password. If no more changes are made within 1 hour then the user will
automatically be ‘logged off’, re-enabling the password feature.
The Settings Password prevents unauthorised changes to settings from the front fascia or over the data
communications channel(s). The Control Password prevents unauthorised operation of controls in the relay
Control Menu from the front fascia.
The password validation screen also displays a numerical code. If the password is lost or forgotten, this code
should be communicated to Siemens Limited and the password can be retrieved.
NOTE:
The default control password is "AAAA". It is recommended to change the default password after the final
configuration.

1.3 Setting Mode

The Settings Mode is reached by pressing the READ DOWN ▼ button from the relay identifier screen.
Once the Settings Mode title screen has been located pressing the READ DOWN ▼ button takes the user into
the Settings mode sub-menus.
Each sub-menu contains the programmable settings of the relay in separate logical groups. The sub menus are
accessed by pressing the TEST/RESET► button. Pressing the ▼ button will scroll through the settings, after the
last setting in each sub menu is reached the next sub menu will be displayed. If a particular sub menu is not
required to be viewed then pressing ▼ will move directly to the next one in the list.
While a setting is being displayed on the screen the ENTER button can be pressed to edit the setting value. If the
relay is setting password protected the user will be asked to enter the password. If an incorrect password is
entered editing will not be permitted. All screens can be viewed if the password is not known.
While a setting is being edited flashing characters indicate the edit field. Pressing the ▲ or ▼ buttons will scroll
through the valid field values. If these buttons are held on, the rate of scrolling will increase.
Once editing is complete pressing the ENTER button stores the new setting into the non-volatile memory.
The actual setting ranges and default values for each relay model can be found in the appendix to this manual.
1.4 Instruments Mode

The Instrument Mode sub-menu displays key quantities and information to aid with commissioning. The following
meters are available and are navigated around by using the ▲,▼and TEST/REST buttons. The text description

Section 2: Setting & Configuring the Relay Using Reydisp

Evolution
To set the relay using a communication port the user will need the following:-
PC with Reydisp Evolution Version 7.1.5.6 or later Installed. (This can be downloaded from our website and
found under the submenu ‘Software’) This software requires windows 2000-service pack 4 or above, or windows
XP with service pack 2 or above and Microsoft.NET framework for tools.
2.1 Physical Connection

The relay can be connected to Reydisp via any of the communication ports on the relay. Suitable communication
Interface cable and converters are required depending which port is being used.
2.1.1 Front USB connection
To connect your pc locally via the front USB port.
Figure 2.1-1 USB connection to PC
2.1.2 Rear RS485 connection
Figure 2.1-2 RS485 connection to PC

2.1.3 Configuring Relay Serial Data Communication
Using the keys on the relay fascia scroll down the settings menus into the ‘communications’ menu and if
necessary change the settings for the communication port you are using on the relay. Reydisp software uses
IEC60870-5-103 protocol to communicate.
When connecting the relay to a pc using the front USB port, the Reydisp setting software will automatically detect
the relay without making any setting changes in the relay first as long as the USB is selected to IEC60870-5-103.

2.1.4 Connecting to the Relay for setting via Reydisp
When Reydisp software is running all available communication ports will automatically be detected.
On the start page tool bar open up the sub-menu ‘File’ and select ‘Connect’.
The ‘Connection Manager’ window will display all available communication ports. With the preferred port
highlighted select the ‘Properties’ option and ensure the baud rate and parity match that selected in the relay
settings. Select ‘Connect’ to initiate the relay-PC connection.
Figure 2.1-3 PC Comm Port Selection
The relay settings can now be configured using the Reydisp software. Please refer to the Reydisp Evolution
Manual for further guidance.

2.1.5 Configuring the user texts using Reydisp Language Editor

As default the relay uses the text descriptions in all menus as they appear in this manual. These descriptions can
be changed by installing a user language file in the relay, allowing the user to edit all views to meet their needs
and provide easier operation.
The Reyrolle Language File Editor tool and its user manual are installed as part of the Reydisp Evolution software
package. They can be found in your pc as sub menus of the Reydisp Evolution installation.
Figure 2.1-4 PC Language File Editor
When the software is opened a ‘new project from template’ should be used to generate your file. The file will
display all default ‘Original’ text descriptions in one column and the ‘Alternative’ text in the other column. The
descriptions in the ‘Alternative’ list can be changed and will be used in the relays menu structures. Once the file
is complete, a language file can be created and loaded into the relay using the ‘send file to relay’ function. The
communication properties in the software and on the relay must be set. The relay must be restarted after the file
is installed.
To activate the language file it must be selected in the relay configuration menu, the ‘Original’ file is the file
labelled ‘ENGLISH’ and the new file will be displayed using the file name allocated by the user.
Care should be taken to ensure a unique file name is given including a version control reference. The user will be
prompted to restart the relay to activate the language file.
Please refer to the Language Editor Manual for further guidance.

The relay data communication facility is compatible with control and automation systems and PCs running
Reydisp software. The relay can provide operational information, post-fault analysis, settings interrogation and
editing facilities. This section describes how to use the Communication Interface with a control system or
interrogating computer. Appropriate software within the control system or on the interrogating computer (e.g.
Reydisp Evolution/Manager) is required to access the interface.
The relay data communication facility incorporates user selectable protocols to provide compatibility with control
and automation systems.
This section specifies connection details and lists the events, commands and measurands available in the
IEC60870-5-103, Modbus RTU, DNP3.0 and optional IEC60870-5-101 protocols.
For further information regarding the IEC60870-5-103 interface, reference should be made to the separate
Informative Communications Interface manual.
For further information regarding the IEC61850 protocol, refer to the IEC61850 technical publications.
The Communications Interface for dialogue communications by the Protection Engineer is provided by the
Reydisp Evolution software package, also available from the website, using the IEC60870-5-103 protocol.

Section 2: Physical Connection

The relay range provides one ‘Front’ USB communication interface (Com2) located on the fascia and one RS485
(Com1) located on the ‘Rear’. Access to the communication settings for the USB port is only available from the
relay front fascia via the key pad setting menu COMMUNICATIONS MENU. The communication settings for the
RS485 port are available from the relay front fascia via the key pad setting menu or through Reydisp via the USB
connection. Optional Ethernet ports for IEC 61850 protocol are also fitted at the rear.
1. Com2-USB: this port is used for IEC60870-5-103 (default setting) communication with the Reydisp
software. An ASCII protocol, the main use of which is to allow firmware to be updated from the front
connection, is also available through this port.
2. Com1-RS485: this port can be used for IEC60870-5-103 or MODBUS RTU or DNP 3.0 communications
to a substation SCADA or integrated control system or engineer remote access.
3. Ethernet Ports: Located on the rear of the relay these optional ports can be used for IEC61850
communications to a substation SCADA, integrated control system or for engineer remote access.
Ethernet ports using IEC 61850 protocol can also provide an IEC 60870-5-103 protocol connection to
Reydisp.
The ports can be independently mapped to the IEC60870-5-103 or MODBUS RTU or DNP3.0 protocol or
switched OFF in the relay settings. The same protocol can be used simultaneously on both ports.
SPDL. can provide a range of interface devices, please refer to product portfolio catalogue.
Full details of the interface devices can be found by referring to the website.

2.1 Communication ports
2.1.1 USB Interface (Com2)

The USB communication port is connected using a standard USB cable with a type B connection to the relay and
type A to the PC.
The PC will require a suitable USB driver to be installed, this will be carried out automatically when the Reydisp
software is installed. When the Reydisp software is running, with the USB cable connected to a device, an
additional connection is shown in the Reydisp connection window, connections to the USB port are not shown
when they are not connected.
The USB communication interface on the relay is labelled Com 2 and its associated settings are located in the
Data communications menu. When connecting to Reydisp using this connection the default settings can be used
without the need to first change any settings, otherwise the Com 2 port must be set to IEC60870-5-103 (the relay
address and baud rate do not need to be set).
The following settings must be configured via the relay fascia when using the USB interface.

2.1.2 RS485 Interface (Com1)

The RS485 communication port is located on the rear of the relay and can be connected using a suitable RS485
120 ohm screened twisted pair cable.
The RS485 electrical connection can be used in a single or multi-drop configuration. The RS485 master must
support and use the Auto Device Enable (ADE) feature. The last device in the connection must be terminated
correctly in accordance with the master device driving the connection. The relays are fitted with an internal
terminating resistor which can be connected between A and B by fitting an external wire loop between terminals
18 and 20 on the power supply module.
The maximum number of relays that can be connected to the bus is 64.
The following settings must be configured via the relay fascia when using the RS485 interface. The shaded
settings are only visible when DNP3.0 is selected.

Section 3: IEC 60870-5-103 Definitions
3.1 Introduction
This section describes the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol implementation in the relays. This protocol is used for the
communication with Reydisp software and can also be used for communication with a suitable control system.
The control system or local PC acts as the master in the system with the relay operating as a slave responding to
the master’s commands. The implementation provides event information, time synchronising, commands and
measurands and also supports the transfer of disturbance records.
This protocol can be set to use any or all of the relays hardware interfaces and is the standard protocol used by
the USB port. The relay can communicate simultaneously on all ports regardless of protocol used.
Each relay must be given an address to enable communication and can be set by the Communication
Interface:Relay Address. A relay with the default address of 0 will not be able to communicate.
Cause of Transmission
The cause of transmission (COT) column of the ‘Information Number and Function’ table lists possible causes of
transmission for these frames. The following abbreviations are used:
Abbreviation Description

Section 4: Modbus Definitions
4.1 INTRODUCTION
This section describes the MODBUS-RTU protocol implementation in the relays. This protocol is used for
communication with a suitable control system.
This protocol can be set to use the RS485 port. The relay can communicate simultaneously on all ports
regardless of protocol used.
Each relay must be given an address to enable communication and can be set by the Communication
Interface:Relay Address.
Note that not all definitions are available on all relay models.

1) FP_32BITS_3DP: 2 registers - 32 bit fixed point, a 32 bit integer containing a value to 3 decimal places e.g. 50000 sent = 50.000
2) Sequence of 8 registers containing an event record. Read address 30002 for 8 registers (16 bytes), each read returns the earliest event record and removes it from the
internal store. Repeat this process for the number of events in the register 30001, or until no more events are returned. (the error condition exception code 2)
3) UINT16: 1 register - standard 16 bit unsigned integer 4) UINT32: 2 registers - 32bit unsigned integer. 5) BITSTRING: Sequence of bits showing the status of 1-16
items. For example, if 9 inputs are used, bits 1-9 show the status of inputs 1-9 respectively. Unused bits are set to zero.

4.2.4 Holding Registers (Read Write values)

Address Description
40001 Time Meter
4.2.5 Event Record
MODBUS does not define a method for extracting events; therefore a private method has been defined based on
that defined by [4] IEC60870-5-103.
Register 30001 contains the current number of events in the relays event buffer. Register 30002 contains the
earliest event record available. The event record is 8 registers (16 bytes) of information, whose format is
described below. When this record has been read it will be replaced by the next available record. Event records
must be read completely; therefore the quantity value must be set to 8 before reading. Failing to do this will result
in an exception code 2. If no event record is present the exception code 2 will be returned. The event address
should be polled regularly by the master for events.
4.2.5.1 Event Format

The format of the event record is defined by the zero byte. It signifies the type of record which is used to decode
the event information. The zero byte can be one of the following.
Type Description
1 Event
2 Event with Relative Time
4 Measurand Event with Relative Time

5.1 Device Profile

The following table provides a “Device Profile Document” in the standard format defined in the DNP 3.0 Subset
Definitions Document. While it is referred to in the DNP 3.0 Subset Definitions as a “Document,” it is in fact a
table, and only a component of a total interoperability guide. The table, in combination with the Implementation
Table in Section 5.2 and the Point List Tables provided in Section 5.3 should provide a complete
configuration/interoperability guide for communicating with a device implementing the Triangle MicroWorks, Inc.

5.2 Implementation Table

The following table identifies which object variations, function codes, and qualifiers the Triangle MicroWorks, Inc.
DNP 3.0 Slave Source Code Library supports in both request messages and in response messages. For static
(non-change-event) objects, requests sent with qualifiers 00, 01, 06, 07, or 08, will be responded with qualifiers 00
or 01. Requests sent with qualifiers 17 or 28 will be responded with qualifiers 17 or 28. For change-event
objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are always responded.
In the table below, text shaded as 00, 01 (start stop) indicates Subset Level 3 functionality (beyond Subset Level
2).
In the table below, text shaded as 07, 08 (limited qty) indicates functionality beyond Subset Level 3.

Note 1: A Default variation refers to the variation responded when variation 0 is requested and/or in class 0, 1, 2,
or 3 scans. Default variations are configurable; however, default settings for the configuration parameters are
indicated in the table above.
Note 2: For static (non-change-event) objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are only responded when a request is sent with
qualifiers 17 or 28, respectively. Otherwise, static object requests sent with qualifiers 00, 01, 06, 07, or 08, will be
responded with qualifiers 00 or 01. (For change-event objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are always responded.)
Note 3: Writes of Internal Indications are only supported for index 7 (Restart IIN1-7)

5.3.3 Binary Output Status Points and Control Relay Output Blocks
The following table lists both the Binary Output Status Points (Object 10) and the Control Relay Output Blocks
(Object 12).
While Binary Output Status Points are included here for completeness, they are not often polled by DNP 3.0
Masters. It is recommended that Binary Output Status points represent the most recent DNP “commanded” value
for the corresponding Control Relay Output Block point. Because many, if not most, Control Relay Output Block
points are controlled through pulse mechanisms, the value of the output status may in fact be meaningless.
Binary Output Status points are not recommended to be included in class 0 polls.
As an alternative, it is recommended that “actual” status values of Control Relay Output Block points be looped
around and mapped as Binary Inputs. (The “actual” status value, as opposed to the “commanded” status value, is
the value of the actuated control. For example, a DNP control command may be blocked through hardware or
software mechanisms; in this case, the actual status value would indicate the control failed because of the
blocking). Looping Control Relay Output Block actual status values as Binary Inputs has several advantages:
• it allows actual statuses to be included in class 0 polls,
• it allows change event reporting of the actual statuses, which is a more efficient and time-accurate
method of communicating control values,
• and it allows reporting of time-based information associated with controls, including any delays before
controls are actuated, and any durations if the controls are pulsed.
The default select/control buffer size is large enough to hold 10 of the largest select requests possible.
Binary Outputs are by default returned in a class zero interrogation.

5.3.4 Analogue Inputs

The following table lists Analog Inputs (Object 30). It is important to note that 16-bit and 32-bit variations of
Analog Inputs, Analog Output Control Blocks, and Analog Output Statuses are transmitted through DNP as
signed numbers.
The “Default Deadband,” and the “Default Change Event Assigned Class” columns are used to represent the
absolute amount by which the point must change before an analog change event will be generated, and once
generated in which class poll (1, 2, 3, or none) will the change event be reported.
The default analog input event buffer size is set 30.
Analog Inputs are by default returned in a class zero interrogation.

Section 6: IEC61850 Protocol Support

The relay can optionally be provided with IEC61850 communication capabilities.
For further details on IEC61850 refer to the following publications:
1) Model Implementation Conformance Statement (MICS)
2) Protocol Implementation Conformance Statement (PICS)
3) Protocol Implementation Extra Information for Testing (PIXIT)

Section 7: Modems
7.1 Introduction
The communications interface has been designed to allow data transfer via modems. However, IEC 60870-5-103
defines the data transfer protocol as an 11 bit format of 1 start, 1 stop, 8 data and even parity, which is a mode
most commercial modems do not support. High performance modems will support this mode, but are expensive.
For this reason, a parity setting is provided to allow use of easily available and relatively inexpensive commercial
modems. This will result in a small reduction in data security and the system will not be compatible with true IEC
60870-5-103 control systems.
7.2 Connecting a Modem to the Relay(s)

RS232C defines devices as being either Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) e.g. computers, or data
Communications Equipment (DCE), e.g. modems, where one is designed to be connected to the other. In this
case, two DCE devices (the modem and the fibre-optic converter) are being connected together, so a null terminal
connector is required, which switches various control lines. The fibre-optic converter is then connected to the
relay Network Tx to Relay Rx and Network Rx to Relay Tx.
7.3 Setting the Remote Modem

The exact settings of the modem are dependent on the type of modem. Although most modems support the basic
Hayes ‘AT’ command format, different manufacturers use different commands for the same functions. In addition,
some modems use DIP switches to set parameters, others are entirely software configured.
Before applying settings, the modem’s factory default settings should be applied, to ensure it is in a known state.
Several factors must be considered to allow remote dialling to the relays. The first is that the modem at the
remote end must be configured as auto answer. This will allow it to initiate communications with the relays. Next,
the user should set the data configuration at the local port, i.e. baud rate and parity, so that communication will be
at the same rate and format as that set on the relay and the error correction is disabled.
Auto-answer usually requires two parameters to be set. The auto-answer setting should be switched on and the
number of rings after which it will answer. The Data Terminal Ready (DTR) settings should be forced on. This tells
the modem that the device connected to it is ready to receive data.
The parameters of the modem’s RS232C port are set to match those set on the relay, set baud rate and parity to
be the same as the settings on the relay and number of data bits to be 8 and stop bits 1. Note, although the
device may be able to communicate with the modem at say 19200 bps, the modem may only be able to transmit
over the telephone lines at 14400 bps. Therefore, a baud rate setting on which the modem can transmit should be
chosen. In this example, a baud rate of 9600 should be chosen.
As the modems are required to be transparent, simply passing on the data sent from the controller to the device
and vice versa, error correction and buffering is turned off.
If possible, Data Carrier Detect (DCD) should be forced on, as this control line will be used by the Fibre-optic
converter.
Finally, these settings should be stored in the modem’s memory for power on defaults.
7.4 Connecting to the Remote Modem

Once the remote modem has been configured correctly, it should be possible to dial up the modem and make
connection to the relay. As the settings on the remote modem are fixed the local modem should negotiate with it
on connection, choosing suitable matching settings. If it cannot do this, the local modem should be set with
settings equivalent to those of the remote modem as described above.

Section 8: Configuration
The data points and control features which are possible within the relay is fixed and can be transmitted over the
communication channel(s) protocols in the default format described earlier in this section. The default data
transmitted is not always directly compatible with the needs of the substation control system and will require some
tailoring, this can be done by the user with the Reydisp software comms editor tool.
The Comms Editor is provided to allow its users to configure the Communications Files Protocols in Reyrolle
brand Relays manufactured by Siemens Protection Devices Limited (SPDL).
The editor supports configuring DNP3, IEC60870-5-103 and MODBUS protocols.
The editor allows configuration files to be retrieved from the relay, edited, then uploaded back to the relay. Files
may also be saved/loaded from disc to work offline. The protocols will be stored in a Reyrolle Protection Device
Comms file (RPDC), which will be stored locally, so that the editor can be used when the relay is not connected.
8.1 DNP3
The tool will allow:
· Data Points to be enabled or disabled.
· Changing the point numbers for the Binary Inputs, Binary Outputs and Analogue Inputs.
· Changing their assigned class and object variants.
· Setting Binary points to be inverted before transmission.
· Setting the Control Relay Output Block (CROB) commands that can be used with a Binary Output.
· Specifying a dead-band outside which Analogue Events will be generated.
· Specifying a multiplier that will be applied to an analogue value before transmission.
8.2 IEC60870-5-103
· Data Points to be enabled or disabled.
· Changing the point numbers Function Type (FUN) and Information (INF), returned by each point.
· Changing the text returned to Reydisp for display in its event viewer.
8.3 MODBUS-RTU
· Changing the Addresses for the Coils, Inputs and Registers.
· Changing the format of the instrument returned in a register, e.g. 16 or 32 bit.
· Specifying a multiplier that will be applied to an analogue value before transmission.
Note, as MODBUS points are polled they do not need to be enabled or disabled
The user can check if the relay contains user configured communication files via a meter in the relay menus.
Pressing the Enter and down arrow buttons on the fascia, then scrolling down, the number of files stored in the
relay is displayed. The file name can also be viewed by pressing the Cancel and Test/Reset buttons together
when in the relay Instruments menu. The user must ensure when naming the file, they use a unique file name
including the version number.
Please refer to the Comms Editor Technical Manual for further guidance.

1.2 Binary Inputs

Each Binary Input (BI) can be programmed to operate one or more of the relay functions, LEDs or output relays.
These could be used to bring such digital signals as Inhibits for protection elements, the trip circuit supervision
status, autoreclose control signals etc. into the Relay.
1.2.1 Alarm and Tripping Inputs

A common use of binary inputs is to provide indication of alarm or fault conditions e.g. transformer Buchholz Gas
or Buchholz Surge conditions. The Binary Inputs are mapped to LED(s), waveform storage trigger and binary
outputs. Note that transformer outputs which require high speed tripping, such as a Buchholz Surge, should be
wired to a binary input to provide LED indication and also have a parallel connection wired to directly trip the
circuit via a blocking diode, see figure. 1.2-1:

1.2.2 The Effects of Capacitance Current

The binary inputs have a low minimum operate current and may be set for instantaneous operation. Consideration
should be given to the likelihood of mal-operation due to capacitance current. Capacitance current can flow
through the BI for example if an earth fault occurs on the dc circuits associated with the relay. The binary inputs
will be less likely to mal-operate if they:
1 Have both the positive and negative switched (double-pole switched).
2 Do not have extensive external wiring associated with them e.g. if the wiring is confined to the
relay room.
Where a binary input is both used to influence a control function (e.g. provide a tripping function) and it is
considered to be susceptible to mal-operation the external circuitry can be modified to provide immunity to such
disturbances, see figure 1.2-2.

1.3 Binary Outputs

Binary Outputs are mapped to output functions by means of settings. These could be used to bring out such
digital signals as trips, a general pick-up, plant control signals etc.
All Binary Outputs are Trip rated
Each can be defined as Self or Hand Reset. Self-reset contacts are applicable to most protection applications.
Hand-reset contacts are used where the output must remain active until the user expressly clears it e.g. in a
control scheme where the output must remain active until some external feature has correctly processed it.
Notes on Self Reset Outputs
With a failed breaker condition the relay may remain operated until current flow in the primary system is
interrupted by an upstream device. The relay will then reset and attempt to interrupt trip coil current flowing
through an output contact. Where this level is above the break rating of the output contact an auxiliary relay with
heavy-duty contacts should be utilised.
1.4 LEDS
In the Output Configuration menu LEDs can be mapped to output functions by means of settings. These could be
used to display such digital signals as trips, a general pick-up, plant control signals etc.
Each LED can be defined as Self or Hand Reset. Hand reset LEDs are used where the user is required to
expressly acknowledge the change in status e.g. critical operations such as trips or system failures. Self-reset
LEDs are used to display features which routinely change state, such as Circuit-Breaker open or close.
The status of hand reset LEDs is retained in capacitor-backed memory in the event of supply loss.
Each LED can be assigned as red, yellow or green in colour. There are two methods for doing this: -
1) In the LED Matrix tab, to assign the LED as a red colour select a box on the red row. To assign the
LED as a green colour select a box on the green row. To assign the LED as a yellow colour, select
boxes on both the red and green rows.
NB: If there are no boxes selected the LED will not illuminate.
Figure 1.4-1 LED configuration via the LED Matrix tab
2) In the OUTPUT CONFIG\LED CONFIG menu in the Settings tab, to assign the required LED as a
particular colour, either red or green, type the LED number in the appropriate row. To assign the
required LED as a yellow colour, type the LED number in both red and green rows.
NB: If a LED number is not assigned that particular LED will not illuminate.

Section 2: Protection Functions
2.1 Time delayed overcurrent (51/51G/51N)

The 51-n characteristic element provides a number of time/current operate characteristics. The element can be
defined as either an Inverse Definite Minimum Time Lag (IDMTL) or Definite Time Lag (DTL) characteristic. If an
IDMTL characteristic is required, then IEC, ANSI/IEEE and a number of manufacturer specific curves are
supported.
IDMTL characteristics are defined as “Inverse” because their tripping times are inversely proportional to the Fault
Current being measured. This makes them particularly suitable to grading studies where it is important that only
the Relay(s) closest to the fault operate. Discrimination can be achieved with minimised operating times.
To optimise the grading capability of the relay additional time multiplier, ‘Follower DTL’ (Fig. 2.1-1) or ‘Minimum
Operate Time’ (Fig. 2.1-2) settings can be applied.

To increase sensitivity, dedicated Earth fault elements are used. There should be little or no current flowing to
earth in a healthy system so such relays can be given far lower pick-up levels than relays which detect excess
current ( > load current) in each phase conductor. Such dedicated earth fault relays are important where the fault
path to earth is a high-resistance one (such as in highly arid areas) or where the system uses high values of
earthing resistor / reactance and the fault current detected in the phase conductors will be limited.
2.1.1 Selection of Overcurrent Characteristics

Each pole has two independent over-current characteristics. Where required the two curves can be used:
To produce a composite curve
To provide a two stage tripping scheme
Where one curve is to be directionalised in the forward direction the other in the reverse direction.
The characteristic curve shape is selected to be the same type as the other relays on the same circuit or to grade
with items of plant e.g. fuses or earthing resistors.
The application of IDMTL characteristic is summarised in the following table:

OC/EF Curve Characteristic Application
IEC Normal Inverse (NI) Generally applied
ANSI Moderately Inverse (MI)
IEC Very Inverse (VI) Used with high impedance paths where there is a significant difference
between fault levels at protection points
ANSI Very Inverse (VI)
IEC Extreme Inversely (EI) Grading with Fuses
ANSI Extremely Inverse (EI)
IEC Long Time Inverse (LTI) Used to protect transformer earthing resistors having long withstand times
Table 2-1 Application of IDMTL Characteristics
2.1.2 Reset Delay

The increasing use of plastic insulated cables, both conventionally buried and aerial bundled conductors, have
given rise to the number of flashing intermittent faults on distribution systems. At the fault position, the plastic
melts and temporarily reseals the faulty cable for a short time after which the insulation fails again. The same
phenomenon has occurred in compound-filled joint boxes or on ‘clashing’ overhead line conductors. The
repeating occurrence of the fault can cause electromechanical disc relays to “ratchet” up and eventually trip the
faulty circuit if the reset time of the relay is longer than the time between successive faults.
To mimic an electromechanical relay the relay can be user programmed for an IEC/ANSI DECAYING
characteristic when an ANSI operate characteristic is applied. Alternatively a DTL reset (0 to 60 seconds) can be
used with other operate characteristics.
For protection of cable feeders, it is recommended that a 60 second DTL reset be used.
On overhead line networks, particularly where reclosers are incorporated in the protected system, instantaneous
resetting is desirable to ensure that, on multiple shot reclosing schemes, correct grading between the source
relays and the relays associated with the reclosers is maintained.

2.2 Voltage dependent overcurrent (51V)

Reduced voltage can indicate a fault on the system, it can be used to make the 51 elements more sensitive.
Typically Voltage Dependent Over-current (VDO) is applied to:
Transformer Incomers: Where the impedance of the transformer limits fault current the measured voltage level
can be used to discriminate between load and fault current.
Long lines: Where the impedance of the line limits fault current the measured voltage level can be used to
discriminate between load and fault current.
Generator circuits: When a Generator is subjected to a short circuit close to its terminals the short-circuit current
follows a complex profile. After the initial "sub-transient" value, generally in the order of 7 to 10 times full load
current, it falls rapidly (around 10 to 20ms) to the "transient" value. This is still about 5 to 7 times full load and
would be sufficient to operate the protection's over-current elements. However the effect on armature reactance of
the highly inductive short-circuit current is to increase significantly the internal impedance to the synchronous
reactance value. If the Automatic Voltage Regulation (AVR) system does not respond to increase the excitation,
the fault current will decay over the next few seconds to a value below the full load current. This is termed the
steady state fault current, determined by the Generator's synchronous reactance (and pre-fault excitation). It will
be insufficient to operate the protection's over-current elements and the fault will not be detected. Even if AVR is
active, problems may still be encountered. The AVR will have a declared minimum sustained fault current and this
must be above the protection over-current settings. Close-in short circuit faults may also cause the AVR to reach
its safety limits for supplying maximum excitation boost, in the order of several seconds, and this will result in AVR
internal protection devices such as diode fuses to start operating. The generator excitation will then collapse, and
the situation will be the same as when no AVR was present. The fault may again not be detected.
Current grading remains important since a significant voltage reduction may be seen for faults on other parts of
the system. An inverse time operating characteristic must therefore be used.
The VDO Level - the voltage setting below which the more sensitive operating curve applies - must be set low
enough to discriminate between short-circuits and temporary voltage dips due to overloads. However, it must also
be high enough to cover a range of voltage drops for different circuit configurations, from around 0.6Vn to almost
zero. Typically it will be set in the range 0.6 to 0.8Vn.
2.3 Cold Load Settings (51c)

Once a Circuit-Breaker has been open for a period of time, higher than normal levels of load current may flow
following CB re-closure e.g. heating or refrigeration plant. The size and duration of this current is dependent upon
the type of load and the time that the CB is open.
The feature allows the relay to use alternative Shaped Overcurrent (51c) settings when a Cold Load condition is
identified. The cold load current and time multiplier settings will normally be set higher than those of the normal
overcurrent settings.
The relay will revert to its usual settings (51-n) after elapse of the cold load period. This is determined either by a
user set delay, or by the current in all 3-phases falling below a set level (usually related to normal load levels) for
a user set period.

2.4 Instantaneous Overcurrent (50/50G/50N)

Each instantaneous element has an independent setting for pick-up current and a follower definite time lag (DTL)
which can be used to provide time grading margins, sequence co-ordination grading or scheme logic. The
“instantaneous” description relates to the pick-up of the element rather than its operation.
Operating Characteristic:
50-n
Operating time
Current
Figure 2.4-4 General Form of DTL Operate Characteristic
Instantaneous elements can be used in current graded schemes where there is a significant difference between
the fault current levels at different relay point. The Instantaneous element is set to pick up at a current level above
the maximum Fault Current level at the next downstream relay location, and below its own minimum fault current
level. The protection is set to operate instantaneously and is often termed ‘Highset Overcurrent’. A typical
application is the protection of transformer HV connections – the impedance of the transformer ensuring that the
LV side has a much lower level of fault current.
The 50-n elements have a very low transient overreach i.e. their accuracy is not appreciably affected by the initial
dc offset transient associated with fault inception.
2.4.1 Blocked Overcurrent Protection Schemes

A combination of instantaneous and DTL elements can be used in blocked overcurrent protection schemes.
These protection schemes are applied to protect substation busbars or interconnectors etc. Blocked overcurrent
protection provides improved fault clearance times when compared against normally graded overcurrent relays.
The blocked overcurrent scheme of busbar protection shown in Figure 2.4-2 illustrates that circuit overcurrent and
earth fault protection relays can additionally be configured with busbar protection logic.
The diagram shows a substation. The relay on the incomer is to trip for busbar faults (F1) but remain inoperative
for circuit faults (F2).
In this example the overcurrent and earth fault settings for the incomer 50-1 element are set to below the relevant
busbar fault levels. 50-1 time delay is set longer than it would take to acknowledge receipt of a blocking signal
from an outgoing circuit.
Close up faults on the outgoing circuits will have a similar fault level to busbar faults. As the incomer 50-1
elements would operate for these faults it is necessary to provide a blocking output from the circuit protections.
The 50-1 elements of the output relays are given lower current settings than the incomer 50-1 settings, the time
delay is set to 0ms. The output is mapped to a contact. The outgoing relay blocking contacts of all circuits are
wired in parallel and this wiring is also connected to a BI on the incomer relay. The BI on the incomer relay is
mapped to block its 50-1 element.

Figure 2.4-5 Blocking Scheme Using Instantaneous Overcurrent Elements
Typically a time delay as low as 50ms on the incomer 50-1 element will ensure that the incomer is not tripped for
outgoing circuit faults. However, to include for both equipment tolerances and a safety margin a minimum time
delay of 100ms is recommended.
This type of scheme is very cost effective and provides a compromise between back-up overcurrent busbar
protection and dedicated schemes of busbar protection.
Instantaneous elements are also commonly applied to autoreclose schemes to grade with downstream circuit
reclosers and maximise the probability of a successful auto-reclose sequence – see section 4.

2.5 Sensitive Earth-fault Protection (50SEF)

Earth fault protection is based on the assumption that fault current levels will be limited only by the earth fault
impedance of the line and associated plant. However, it may be difficult to make an effective short circuit to earth
due to the nature of the terrain e.g. dry earth, desert or mountains. The resulting earth fault current may therefore
be limited to very low levels.
Sensitive earth fault (SEF) protection is used to detect such faults. The relays have a low burden, so avoiding
unacceptable loading of the CTs at low current settings. Only the fundamental component is used to avoid pick
up from harmonics.
SEF provides a backup to the main protection. A DTL characteristic with a time delay of several seconds is
typically applied ensuring no interference with other discriminative protections. A relatively long time delay can be
tolerated since fault current is low and it is impractical to grade SEF protection with other earth fault protections.
Although not suitable for grading with other forms of protection SEF relays may be graded with each other.
Where very sensitive current settings are required then it is preferable to use a core balance CT rather than wire
into the residual connection of the line CTs. The turns ratio of a core balance CT can be much smaller than that of
phase conductors as they are not related to the rated current of the protected circuit. Since only one core is used,
the CT magnetising current losses are also reduced by a factor of 3.

Figure 2.5-6 Sensitive Earth Fault Protection Application
There are limits to how sensitive an SEF relay may be set since the setting must be above any line charging
current levels that can be detected by the relay. On occurrence of an out of zone earth fault e.g. on circuit 3 the
elevation of sound phase voltage to earth in a non-effectively earthed system can result in a zero sequence
current of up 3 times phase charging current flowing through the relay location.
The step change from balanced 3-phase charging currents to this level of zero sequence current includes
transients. It is recommended to allow for a transient factor of 2 to 3 when determining the limit of charging
current. Based on the above considerations the minimum setting of a relay in a resistance earthed power system
is 6 to 9 times the charging current per phase.

2.6 Directional Protection (67)

Each overcurrent stage can operate for faults in either forward or reverse direction. Convention dictates that
forward direction refers to power flow away from the busbar, while reverse direction refers to power flowing
towards the busbar.
The directional phase fault elements, 67/50 and 67/51, work with a Quadrature Connection to prevent loss of
polarising quantity for close-in phase faults. That is, each of the current elements is directionalised by a voltage
derived from the other two phases.
This connection introduces a 90° Phase Shift (Current leading Voltage) between reference and operate quantities
which must be allowed for in the Characteristic Angle setting. This is the expected fault angle, sometimes termed
the Maximum Torque Angle (MTA) as an analogy to older Electro-mechanical type relays
Example: Expected fault angle is -30º (Current lagging Voltage) so set Directional Angle to: +90° -30° = +60°.
A fault is determined to be in the selected direction if its phase relationship lies within a quadrant +/- 85° either
side of the Characteristic Angle setting.

Directional overcurrent elements allow greater fault selectivity than non-directional elements for interconnected
systems where fault current can flow in both directions through the relaying point. Consider the network shown in
fig. 2.6-3.
The Circuit breakers at A, B, E and G have directional overcurrent relays fitted since fault current can flow in both
directions at these points. The forward direction is defined as being away from the busbar and against the
direction of normal load current flow. These forward looking IDMTL elements can have sensitive settings applied
i.e. low current and time multiplier settings. Note that 7SR12 relays may be programmed with forward, reverse
and non-directional elements simultaneously when required by the protection scheme.

Considering the D-G feeder fault shown in fig. 2.6-4: the current magnitude through breakers C and D will be
similar and their associated relays will have similar prospective operate times. To ensure that only the faulted
feeder is isolated G FWD must be set to be faster than C. Relay G will thus Trip first on FWD settings, leaving D
to operate to clear the fault. The un-faulted Feeder C-E maintains power to the load.
Relays on circuits C and D at the main substation need not be directional to provide the above protection scheme.
However additional directional elements could be mapped to facilitate a blocked overcurrent scheme of busbar
protection.
At A and B, forward looking directional elements enable sensitive settings to be applied to detect transformer
faults whilst reverse elements can be used to provide back-up protection for the relays at C and D.
By using different settings for forward and reverse directions, closed ring circuits can be set to grade correctly
whether fault current flows in a clockwise or counter clockwise direction i.e. it may be practical to use only one
relay to provide dual directional protection.
2.6.1 2 Out of 3 Logic

Sensitive settings can be used with directional overcurrent relays since they are directionalised in a way which
opposes the flow of normal load current i.e. on the substation incomers as shown on fig. 2.6-4. However on
occurrence of transformer HV or feeder incomer phase-phase faults an unbalanced load current may still flow as
an unbalanced driving voltage is present. This unbalanced load current during a fault may be significant where
sensitive overcurrent settings are applied - the load current in one phase may be in the operate direction and
above the relay setting.
Where this current distribution may occur then the relay is set to CURRENT PROTECTION>PHASE
OVERCURRENT> 67 2-out-of-3 Logic = ENABLED
Enabling 2-out-of-3 logic will prevent operation of the directional phase fault protection for a single phase to earth
fault. Dedicated earth-fault protection should therefore be used if required.

2.7 Directional Earth-Fault (50/51G, 50/51N, 50/51SEF)

The directional earth-fault elements, either measured directly or derived from the three line currents the zero
sequence current (operate quantity) and compare this against the derived zero phase sequence voltage
(polarising quantity). Chapter 1 of the Technical Manual ‘Description of Operation’ details the method of
measurement. The required setting is entered directly as dictated by the system impedances.
Example: Expected fault angle is -45° (i.e. residual current lagging residual voltage) therefore 67G Char Angle =
-45°
However directional earth elements can be selectable to use either ZPS or NPS Polarising. This is to allow for the
situation where ZPS voltage is not available; perhaps because a 3-limb VT is being used. Care must be taken as
the Characteristic Angle will change if NPS Polarising is used.
Once again the fault angle is completely predictable, though this is a little more complicated as the method of
earthing must be considered.

2.7.1 Compensated Coil Earthing Networks

In compensated networks the Resonant Coil (Petersen coil) is tuned to match the capacitive charging currents
such that when an earth fault occurs, negligible fault current will flow. However, resistive losses in the primary
conductors and also in the earthing coil will lead to resistive (wattmetric) components which can be measured by
the 50/51SEF elements and used to indicate fault position. Core balance CTs are recommended for this
application to achieve the necessary accuracy of residual current measurement.

angle is set to approximately 0º and the boundary at +90º used to detect the direction of the resistive component
within the residual current. Setting of the boundary is critical to discriminate between faulted and unfaulted
circuits. Setting ‘67SEF Compensated Network’ to ‘Enabled’ will set the directional boundaries to ±87º around the
characteristic angle, fine adjustment of the boundary may be necessary using the characteristic angle setting.

selected by setting ‘Ires Select’ to ‘Ires Real’. The characteristic angle should be set to 0º.

power.

2.7.2 Isolated Networks

During earth faults on isolated distribution networks there is no fault current path to the source and subsequently
no fault current will flow. However, the phase-neutral capacitive charging currents on the three phases will
become unbalanced and the healthy phase currents will create an unbalance current which flows to earth.
Unbalanced charging current for the whole connected network will return to the source through the fault path. This
will produce a current at the relay which can be used to detect the presence of the fault. On each healthy circuit
the unbalanced capacitive currents appear as a residual current which LAGS the residual voltage by 90º. On the
faulted circuit the charging current creates no residual but the return of the charging current on the other circuits
appears as a residual current which LEADS the residual voltage by 90º. The characteristic angle should be set to
+90º.

Some customers prefer to use only the sine (reactive) component of the residual current which can be easily
achieved by setting ‘Ires Select’ to ‘Ires Real’ to select the operating current to IRESCos(θ-Ø) and setting the
characteristic angle Ø to +90º.
2.7.3 Minimum Polarising Voltage

The correct residual voltage direction must be measured to allow a forward/reverse decision to be made.
Minimum polarising voltage setting can be used to prevent tripping when fault conditions are such that significant
residual voltage is not generated and the directional decision would be unreliable. The setting must allow for error
in voltage measurement due to VT inaccuracy and connection. It can be used to improve stability under non-fault
conditions during unbalanced load, when earth fault elements with very sensitive current settings are applied. This
is ensured by selecting a setting which is near to the minimum expected residual voltage during fault conditions.
High impedance earthing methods, including compensated and isolated systems, will result in high levels of
residual voltage, up to 3 times normal phase to neutral voltage, during earth faults. The minimum polarising
voltage can therefore be increased to allow very low residual current settings to be applied without risk of
operation during unbalanced load conditions.

2.8 High Impedance Restricted Earth Fault Protection (64H)

Restricted Earth Fault (REF) protection is applied to Transformers to detect low level earth faults in the
transformer windings. Current transformers are located on all connections to the transformer. During normal
operation or external fault conditions no current will flow in the relay element. When an internal earth fault occurs,
the currents in the CTs will not balance and the resulting unbalance flows through the relay.
The current transformers may saturate when carrying high levels of fault current. The high impedance name is
derived from the fact that a resistor is added to the relay leg to prevent relay operation due to CT saturation under
through fault conditions.
The REF Trip output is configured to provide an instantaneous trip output from the relay to minimise damage from
developing winding faults.
The application of the element to a delta-star transformer is shown in Figure 2.8-1. Although the connection on
the relay winding is more correctly termed a Balanced Earth-Fault element, it is still usually referred to as
Restricted Earth Fault because of the presence of the transformer.
Balanced Restricted
Earth Fault Earth Fault
Figure 2.8-1 Balanced and Restricted Earth-fault protection of Transformers
The calculation of the value of the Stability Resistor is based on the worst case where one CT fully saturates and
the other balancing CT does not saturate at all. A separate Siemens Protection Devices Limited Publication is
available covering the calculation procedure for REF protection. To summarise this:
The relay Stability (operating) Vs voltage is calculated using worst case lead burden to avoid relay operation for
through-fault conditions where one of the CTs may be fully saturated. The required fault setting (primary operate
current) of the protection is chosen; typically, this is between 10 % and 25 % of the protected winding rated
current. The relay setting current is calculated based on the secondary value of the operate current, note,
however, that the summated CT magnetising current @ Vs must be subtracted to obtain the required relay
operate current setting.
Since the relay operate current setting and stability/operating voltage are now known, a value for the series
resistance can now be calculated.
A check is made as to whether a Non-Linear Resistor is required to limit scheme voltage during internal fault
conditions – typically where the calculated voltage is in excess of 2kV.
The required thermal ratings for external circuit components are calculated.

Composite overcurrent and REF protection can be provided using a multi-element relay as shown below.

Figure 2.8-2 Composite Overcurrent and Restricted Earth-fault Protection
Although core-balance CTs are traditionally used with elements requiring sensitive pickup settings, cost and size
usually precludes this on REF schemes. Instead single-Phase CTs are used and their secondary’s connected in
parallel.
Where sensitive settings are required, the setting must be above any line charging current levels that can be
detected by the relay.
On occurrence of an out of zone earth fault the elevation of sound phase voltage to earth in a non-effectively
earthed system can result in a zero sequence current of up 3 times phase charging current flowing through the
relay location.
The step change from balanced 3-phase charging currents to this level of zero sequence current includes
transients. It is recommended to allow for a transient factor of 2 to 3 when determining the limit of charging
current. Based on the above considerations the minimum setting of a relay in a resistance earthed power system
is 6 to 9 times the charging current per phase.
High impedance differential protection is suitable for application to auto transformers as line currents are in phase
and the secondary current through the relay is balanced to zero by the use of CTs ratios at all three terminals.
High impedance protection of this type is very sensitive and fast operating for internal faults.
2.9 Negative Phase Sequence Overcurrent (46NPS)

The presence of Negative Phase Sequence (NPS) current indicates an unbalance in the phase currents, either
due to a fault or unbalanced load.
NPS current presents a major problem for 3-phase rotating plant. It produces a reaction magnetic field which
rotates in the opposite direction, and at twice the frequency, to the main field created by the DC excitation system.
This induces double-frequency currents into the rotor which cause very large eddy currents in the rotor body. The
2
resulting heating of the rotor can be severe and is proportional to (I2) t.
Generators and Motors are designed, manufactured and tested to be capable of withstanding unbalanced current
for specified limits. Their withstand is specified in two parts; continuous capability based on a figure of I2, and
2
short time capability based on a constant, K, where K = (I2) t. NPS overcurrent protection is therefore configured
to match these two plant characteristics.

2.10 Undercurrent (37)

Undercurrent elements are used in control logic schemes such as Auto-Changeover Schemes, Auto-Switching
Interlock and Loss of Load. They are used to indicate that current has ceased to flow or that a low load situation
exists. For this reason simple Definite Time Lag (DTL) elements may be used.
For example, once it has been determined that fault current has been broken – the CB is open and no current
flows – an auto-isolation sequence may safely be initiated.
2.11 Thermal Overload (49)

The element uses measured 3-phase current to estimate the real-time Thermal State, θ, of cables or
transformers. The Thermal State is based on both past and present current levels.
θ = 0% for unheated equipment, and θ = 100% for maximum thermal withstand of equipment or the Trip
threshold.

For given current level, the Thermal State will ramp up over time until Thermal Equilibrium is reached when
Heating Effects of Current = Thermal Losses.
The heating / cooling curve is primarily dependant upon the Thermal Time Constant. This must be matched
against that quoted for the item of plant being protected. Similarly the current tripping threshold, Iθ , is related to
the thermal withstand of the plant.
Thermal Overload is a slow acting protection, detecting faults or system conditions too small to pick-up fast acting
protections such as Phase Overcurrent. An Alarm is provided for θ at or above a set % of capacity to indicate that
a potential trip condition exists and that the system should be scrutinised for abnormalities.

2.12 Under/Over Voltage Protection (27/59)
Power system under-voltages on may occur due to:

System faults.
An increase in system loading,
Non-energized power system e.g. loss of an incoming transformer
During normal system operating conditions regulating equipment such as transformer On Load Tap Changers
(OLTC) and generator Automatic Voltage Regulators (AVR) ensure that the system runs within acceptable
voltage limits.
Undervoltage/DTL elements can be used to detect abnormal undervoltage conditions due to system overloads.
Binary outputs can be used to trip non-essential loads - returning the system back to its normal operating levels.
This ‘load shedding’ should be initiated via time delay elements so avoiding operation during transient
disturbances. An undervoltage scheme (or a combined under frequency/under voltage scheme) can provide
faster tripping of non-essential loads than under-frequency load shedding so minimising the possibility of system
instability.
Where a transformer is supplying 3-phase motors a significant voltage drop e.g. to below 80% may cause the
motors to stall. An undervoltage element can be set to trip motor circuits when the voltage falls below a preset
value so that on restoration of supply an overload is not caused by the simultaneous starting of all the motors. A
time delay is required to ensure voltage dips due to remote system faults do not result in an unnecessary
disconnection of motors.
To confirm presence/loss of supply, the voltage elements should be set to values safely above/below that where a
normal system voltage excursion can be expected. The switchgear/plant design should be considered. The ‘Dead’
level may be very near to the ‘live’ level or may be significantly below it. The variable hysteresis setting allows the
relay to be used with all types of switchgear.
System over-voltages can damage component insulation. Excessive voltage may occur for:
Sudden loss of load
A tap changer run-away condition occurs in the high voltage direction,
Generator AVR equipment malfunctions or
Reactive compensation control malfunctions.
System regulating equipment such as transformer tap changers and generator AVRs may correct the overvoltage
– unless this equipment mal-functions. The overvoltage/DTL elements can be used to protect against damage
caused by system overvoltages.
If the overvoltage condition is small a relatively long DTL time delay can be used. If the overvoltage is more
severe then another element, set at a higher pickup level and with a shorter DTL can be used to isolate the circuit
more quickly. Alternatively, elements can be set to provide alarm and tripping stages, with the alarm levels set
lower than the tripping stages.
The use of DTL settings allows a grading system to be applied to co-ordinate the network design, the regulating
plant design, system plant insulation withstand and with other overvoltage relays elsewhere on the system. The
DTL also prevents operation during transient disturbances.
The use of IDMTL protection is not recommended because of the difficulty of choosing settings to ensure correct
co-ordination and security of supply.

2.13 Neutral Overvoltage (59N)

Neutral Voltage Displacement (NVD) protection is used to detect an earth fault where little or no earth current
flows.
This can occur where a feeder has been tripped at its HV side for an earth fault, but the circuit is still energised
from the LV side via an unearthed transformer winding. Insufficient earth current would be present to cause a trip,
but residual voltage would increase significantly; reaching up to 3-times the normal phase-earth voltage level.
If Neutral Overvoltage protection is used, it must be suitably time graded with other protections in order to prevent
unwanted tripping for external system earth faults.

2.13.1 Application with Capacitor Cone Units

Capacitor cones provide a cost effective method of deriving residual voltage. The wide range of capacitor cone
component values used by different manufacturers means that the relay cannot be connected directly to the
cones.
The external adaptor unit contains parallel switched capacitors that enable a wide range of values to be selected
using a DIL switch and hence the Capacitor Cone output can be scaled to the standard relay input range.
2.13.2 Derived NVD Voltage

Alternatively NVD voltage can be derived from the three phase to neutral voltages, this setting is available within
the relay. Note with this method the NVD protection may mal-operate during a VT Fail condition.
2.14 Negative Phase Sequence Overvoltage (47)

Negative Phase Sequence (NPS) protection detects phase unbalances and is widely used in protecting rotating
plant such as motors and generators. However such protection is almost universally based on detecting NPS
Current rather than Voltage. This is because the NPS impedance of motors etc. is much less than the Positive
Phase Sequence (PPS) impedance and therefore the ratio of NPS to PPS Current is much higher than the
equivalent ratio of NPS to PPS Voltage.
NPS Voltage is instead used for monitoring busbar supply quality rather than detecting system faults. The
presence of NPS Voltage is due to unbalanced load on a system. Any system voltage abnormality is important
since it will affect every motor connected to the source of supply and can result in mass failures in an industrial
plant.
The two NPS Voltage DTL elements should therefore be used as Alarms to indicate that the level of NPS has
reached abnormal levels. Remedial action can then be taken, such as introducing a Balancer network of
capacitors and inductors. Very high levels of NPS Voltage indicate incorrect phase sequence due to an incorrect
connection.
2.15 Under/Over Frequency (81)

During normal system operation the frequency will continuously vary over a relatively small range due to the
changing generation/load balance. Excessive frequency variation may occur for:
Loss of generating capacity, or loss of mains supply (underfrequency): If the governors and other
regulating equipment cannot respond to correct the balance, a sustained underfrequency condition may
lead to a system collapse.
Loss of load – excess generation (overfrequency): The generator speeds will increase causing a
proportional frequency rise. This may be unacceptable to industrial loads, for example, where the
running speeds of synchronous motors will be affected.
In the situation where the system frequency is falling rapidly it is common practise to disconnect non-essential
loads until the generation-load balance can be restored. Usually, automatic load shedding, based on
underfrequency is implemented. Underfrequency relays are usually installed on the transformer incomers of
distribution or industrial substations as this provides a convenient position from which to monitor the busbar
frequency. Loads are disconnected from the busbar (shed) in stages until the frequency stabilises and returns to
an acceptable level.
The relay has four under/over frequency elements.
An example scheme may have the first load shedding stage set just below the nominal frequency, e.g. between
49.0 - 49.5Hz. A time delay element would be associated with this to allow for transient dips in frequency and to
provide a time for the system regulating equipment to respond. If the first load shedding stage disconnects
sufficient plant the frequency will stabilise and perhaps return to nominal. If, however, this is not sufficient then a
second load shedding stage, set at a lower frequency, will shed further loads until the overload is relieved. This
process will continue until all stages have operated. In the event of the load shedding being unsuccessful, a final
stage of underfrequency protection should be provided to totally isolate all loads before plant is damaged, e.g.
due to overfluxing.

An alternative type of load shedding scheme would be to set all underfrequency stages to about the same
frequency setting but to have different length time delays set on each stage. If after the first stage is shed the
frequency doesn’t recover then subsequent stages will shed after longer time delays have elapsed.

Section 3: CT Requirements
3.1 CT Requirements for Overcurrent and Earth Fault

Protection
3.1.1 Overcurrent Protection CTs

a) For industrial systems with relatively low fault current and no onerous grading requirements - a class
10P10 with VA rating to match the load.
b) For utility distribution networks with relatively high fault current and several grading stages - a class
5P20, with VA rating to match the load.
Note: if an accuracy limit factor is chosen which is much lower than the maximum fault current it will be
necessary to consider any effect on the protection system performance and accuracy e.g. grading margins.
For idmtl applications, because the operating time at high fault current is a definite minimum value, partial
saturation of the CT at values beyond the overcurrent factor has only a minimal effect. However, this must be
taken into account in establishing the appropriate setting to ensure proper grading.
c) For dtl applications utilities as for (b) above - a class 5P10 (or 20), with rated burden to suit the
load.
Note: Overcurrent factors do not need to be high for definite time protection because once the setting is exceeded
magnitude accuracy is not important. Often, however, there is also the need to consider instantaneous HighSet
overcurrent protection as part of the same protection system and the settings would normally be of the order of
10x the CT rating or higher. Where higher settings are to be used then the overcurrent factor must be raised
accordingly, e.g. to P20.
3.1.2 Earth Fault Protection CTs
Considerations and requirements for earth fault protection are the same as for Phase fault. Usually the relay
employs the same CT's e.g. three phase CTs star connected to derive the residual earth fault current.
The accuracy class and overcurrent accuracy limit factors are therefore already determined and for both these
factors the earth fault protection requirements are normally less onerous than for overcurrent.
3.2 CT Requirements for High Impedance Restricted Earth

Fault Protection
For high impedance REF it is recommended that:

Low reactance CTs to IEC Class PX are used, this allows a sensitive current setting to be applied.
All CT’s should, if possible have identical turns ratios.
The knee point voltage of the CTs must be greater than 2 x 64H setting voltage Vs.
Where the REF function is used then this dictates that the other protection functions are also used with class PX
CTs.
A full explanation of how to specify CTs for use with REF protection, and set REF relays is available on our
website: www.siemens.com/energy.

Section 4: Control Functions
4.1 Auto-reclose Applications

• Automatic circuit reclosing is extensively applied to overhead line circuits where a high percentage of faults
that occur are of a transient nature. By automatically reclosing the circuit-breaker the feature attempts to
minimise the loss of supply to the customer and reduce the need for manual intervention.
The function supports up to 4 ARC sequences. That is, 4 x Trip / Recloses followed by a Trip & Lockout. A lockout
condition prevents any further automatic attempts to close the circuit-breaker. The number of sequences selected
depends upon the type of faults expected. If there are a sufficient percentage of semi-permanent faults which
could be burnt away, e.g. fallen branches, a multi shot scheme would be appropriate. Alternatively, if there is a
high likelihood of permanent faults, a single shot scheme would minimise the chances of causing damage by
reclosing onto a fault. In general, 80% of faults will be cleared by a single Trip and Reclose sequence. A further
10% will be cleared by a second Trip and Reclose. Different sequences can be selected for different fault types
(Phase/Earth/Sensitive Earth faults).
The Deadtime is the interval between the trip and the CB close pulse being issued. This is to allow for the line to
go ‘dead’ after the fault is cleared. The delay chosen is a compromise between the need to return the line to
service as soon as possible and prevented unnecessary trips through re-closing too soon. The Reclaim Time is
the delay following a re-closure before the line can be considered back in service. This should be set long enough
to allow for protection operation for the same fault, but not so long that two separate faults could occur in the
same Autoreclose (ARC) sequence and cause unnecessary lockouts.
The Sequence Fail Timer provides an overall maximum time limit on the ARC operation. It should therefore be
longer than all the set delays in a complete cycle of ARC sequences; trip delays, Deadtimes, Reclaim Time etc.
Generally this will only be exceeded if the circuit-breaker has either failed to open or close.
Since large fault currents could potentially damage the system during a prolonged ARC sequence, there are also
settings to identify which protection elements are High-sets and these can cause an early termination of the
sequence.
Where a relay is to operate as part of an ARC scheme involving a number of other relays, the feature attempts to
clear any faults quickly without regard to normal fault current grading. It does this by setting each Trip element to
be either Delayed or Instantaneous. Instantaneous Trips are set to operate at just above maximum load current
with small delays while Delayed Trips are set to suit actual fault levels and with delays suitable for current
grading.
A typical sequence would be 2 Instantaneous Trips followed by a Delayed Trip & Lockout:
• When any fault occurs, the relay will trip instantaneously and then reclose.
• If this does not clear the fault, the relay will do the same again.
• If this still does not clear the fault, the fault is presumed to be permanent and the next Trip will be
Delayed and so suitable for grading with the rest of the network. Thus allowing downstream
protection time to operate.
• The next trip will Lockout the ARC sequence and prevent further recloses.
It is important that all the relays in an ARC scheme shadow this process – advancing through their own ARC
sequences when a fault is detected by an element pickup even though they are not actually causing a trip or
reclose. This is termed Sequence Co-ordination and prevents an excessive number of recloses as each
successive relay attempts to clear the fault in isolation. For this reason each relay in an ARC scheme must be set
with identical Instantaneous and Delayed sequence of trips.
A B C D
Figure 4.1-1 Sequence Co-ordination

The relay closest to the fault (D) would step through its Instantaneous Trips in an attempt to clear the fault. If
unsuccessful, the relay would move to a Delayed Trip sequence.
The other relays in the network (A, B and C) would recognise the sequence of Pick-up followed by current switch-
off as ARC sequences. They would therefore also step to their Delayed Trip to retain co-ordination with the
respective downstream devices.
The next Trip would be subject to current grading and Lockout the ARC sequence such that the fault is cleared by
the correct CB.

Requirement: The relay at location ‘A’ is required to provide a reclose sequence of 2 Instantaneous followed by 2
delayed recloses. Where the fault current level is between the values ‘I1’ and ‘I2’ and the first trip is initiated from
the 51-1 (IDMT) element, the IDMT characteristic should trip the CB and lockout the auto-reclose.
Typical settings are:

CONTROL & LOGIC > AUTORECLOSE PROT’N:
79 P/F Inst Trips: 50-1
79 P/F Delayed Trips: 51-1
CONTROL & LOGIC > AUTORECLOSE CONFIG > P/F SHOTS
The above settings are suitable at values of fault current above ‘I2’ however were a fault to occur with a current
value between ‘I1’ and ‘I2’ this would be detected by the 51-1 element only. As Prot’n Trip 1 = Inst then the relay
would trip and reclose whereas it is required to lockout for this occurrence.
To provide a lockout for the above faults an additional element 50-2 with identical settings to 50-1 is assigned as
a Delayed Trip and is used in conjunction with the Quick Logic feature i.e.

The MV installation illustrated above is fed from two incomers. To limit the substation fault level the busbar is run
with CB3 open. When a fault occurs on one of the incomers it is isolated by the circuit protection. To re-supply the
disconnected loads from the remaining incomer CB3 is closed.
If the line fault occurs on incomer 1 it must be confirmed that CB 1 has opened before CB3 can be closed. The
relay on incomer 1 confirms that a trip has been issued to CB1 (e.g. Binary Output 2), that CB 1 has opened (e.g.
Binary Input 1) and that no current flows in the circuit (e.g. 37-1 = Virtual 1):

CB1 Open auxiliary switch wired to BI 1
Trip output to CB1 = BO 2
OUTPUT CONFIG>OUTPUT MATRIX: E1 = BO3
CONTROL & LOGIC>QUICK LOGIC: E1 = O2.I1.V1
The output from Incomer 1 (Binary Output 3) relay is input to the relay on CB 3 (Binary Input 1). A panel switch
may be used to enable the On-Load Change-over scheme (Binary Input 2). Before Closing CB3 a check may be
made that there is no voltage on busbar 1 (27/59-1 = Virtual 1). CB 3 is closed from Binary Output 3.

Section 5: Supervision Functions
5.1 Circuit-Breaker Fail (50BF)

Where a circuit breaker fails to operate to clear fault current the power system will remain in a hazardous state
until the fault is cleared by remote or back-up protections. To minimise any delay, CB Failure protection provides
a signal to either re-trip the local CB or back-trip ‘adjacent’ CBs.
The function is initiated by the operation of user selectable protection functions or from a binary input. Current
flow is monitored after a tripping signal has been issued if any of the 50BF current check elements have not reset
before the timers have expired an output is given. For CB trips where the fault is not current related an additional
input is provided (50BF Mech Trip) which monitors the CB closed input and provides an output if the circuit
breaker has not opened before the timers expire.
The relay incorporates a two-stage circuit breaker fail feature. For some systems, only the first will be used and
the CB Failure output will be used to back-trip the adjacent CB(s). On other systems, however, this output will be
used to re-trip the local CB to minimise potential disruption to the system; if possible via a secondary trip coil and
wiring. The second CB Failure stage will then be used to back-trip the adjacent CB(s).
If the CB is faulty and unable to open, a faulty contact can be wired to the CB faulty input of the relay and if a trip
occurs while this input is raised the CB fail delay timers may be by-passed to allow back tripping to occur without
delay.

50BF Setting
The phase current setting must be set below the minimum protection setting current.
50BF Setting-I4
The EF or SEF current setting must be set below the minimum protection setting current.
50BF Ext Trig
Any binary input can be mapped to this input to trigger the circuit breaker fail function. Note current must be
above setting for the function to operate.
50BF Mech Trip
Any binary input can be mapped to this input to trigger the circuit breaker fail function. Note for the function to
operate the circuit breaker closed input is used to detect a failure, not the current.
50BF CB Faulty
Any binary input can be mapped to this input, if it is energised when a trip initiation is received an output will be
given immediately (the timers are by passed).

50BF DTL1/50BF DTL2

The time delays run concurrently within the relay. The time delay applied to the CB Fail protection must be in
excess of the longest CB operate time + relay reset time + a safety margin.
First Stage (Retrip)
Trip Relay operate time 10ms
Reset Time 20ms
CB Tripping time 50ms
Safety Margin 40ms

The safety margin is extended by 1 cycle for the second CBF stage as this will usually involve a back-trip of a
Busbar tripping scheme.

5.2 Current Transformer Supervision

When a CT fails, the current levels seen by the protection become unbalanced, however this condition would also
occur during a system fault. Depending upon the relay model different methods are used to determine the
condition, depending upon the measured quantities available.
Current Transformer Supervision (60CTS – 7SR11)

Following a CT Failure, if one or two of the three phases falls below the CT supervision setting the element will
operate
Operation is subject to a time delay to prevent operation for transitory effects.
A 3-phase CT failure is considered so unlikely (these being independent units) that this condition is not tested for.
Current Transformer Supervision (60CTS – 7SR12)

When a CT fails, the current levels seen by the protection become unbalanced. A large level of NPS current is
therefore detected - around 0.3 x In for one or two CT failures. However this condition would also occur for a
system fault. To differentiate between the two conditions, the element uses NPS voltage to restrain the CTS
algorithm as shown in the accompanying table.
NPS Current NPS Voltage Decision

> Setting > Setting System Fault
> Setting < Setting CT Failure
Table 5-1 Determination of VT Failure (1 or 2 Phases)
Following a CT Failure, there should be little or no NPS voltage. Perhaps 0.1 x Vn as a maximum.
A 3-phase CT failure is considered so unlikely (these being independent units) that this condition is not tested for.

5.3 Voltage Transformer Supervision (60VTS)

Although VTs rarely fail themselves, VT Supervision presents a common application because of the failure of
protective Fuses connected in series with the VTs.
When a VT failure occurs on one or two phases, the voltage levels seen by the protection become unbalanced. A
large level of NPS voltage is therefore detected - around 0.3 x Vn for one or two VT failures. However this
condition would also occur for a system fault. To differentiate between the two conditions, the element uses NPS
current to restrain the VTS algorithm as show in the accompanying table.
NPS Voltage NPS Current Decision

> Setting > Setting System Fault
> Setting < Setting VT Failure
Table 5-2 Determination of VT Failure (1 or 2 Phases)
Following a VT Failure, the level of NPS current would be dependent solely upon load imbalance - perhaps 0.1 x
In as a maximum.
NPS voltage and current quantities are used rather than ZPS since the latter makes it difficult to differentiate
between a VT failure and a Phase-Phase fault. Both conditions would generate little or no ZPS current. However
the element provides an option to use ZPS quantities to meet some older specifications.
There are possible problems with using NPS quantities due to load imbalances. These would also generate
significant levels of NPS current and so possibly cause a VT failure to be missed. This problem can be overcome
by careful selection of settings, however, setting the NPS current threshold above the level expected for
imbalance conditions.
If a failure occurs in all 3 Phases of a Voltage Transformer, then there will be no NPS or ZPS voltage to work with.
However the PPS Voltage will fall below expected minimum measurement levels.
This could also be due to a ‘close in’ fault and so PPS Current must remain above minimum load level BUT below
minimum fault level.
PPS Voltage PPS Current Decision

< Setting > Minimum Fault Level System Fault
< Setting Minimum Load Level < VT Failure
AND
< Minimum Fault Level
Table 5-3 Determination of VT Failure (3 Phases)
Operation is again subject to a time delay to prevent operation for transitory effects.
Alternatively a 3 Phase VT failure can be signalled to the relay via a Binary Input taken from the Trip output of an
external MCB. This can also be reset by a Binary Input signal.
VTS would not normally be used for tripping - it is an alarm rather than fault condition. However the loss of a VT
would cause problems for protection elements that have voltage dependant functionality. For this reason, the
relay allows these protection elements - under-voltage, directional over-current, etc. - to be inhibited if a VT failure
occurs.

5.4 Trip/Close Circuit Supervision (74T/CCS)

The relay provides three trips and three close circuit supervision elements, all elements are identical in operation
and independent from each other allowing 3 trip and 3 close circuits to be monitored.
One or more binary inputs can be mapped to 74TCS-n. The inputs are connected into the trip circuit such that at
least one input is energised when the trip circuit wiring is intact. If all the mapped inputs become de-energised,
due to a break in the trip circuit wiring or loss of supply an output is given.
The 74TCS-n Delay setting prevents the failure being incorrectly indicated during circuit breaker operation. This
delay should be greater than the operating time of the circuit breaker.
The use of one or two binary inputs mapped to the same Trip Circuit Supervision element (e.g. 74TCS-n) allows
the user to realise several alternative monitoring schemes.

5.4.1 Trip Circuit Supervision Connections

The following circuits are derived from UK ENA S15 standard schemes H5, H6 and H7.
For compliance with this standard:
Where more than one device is used to trip the CB then connections should be looped between the
tripping contacts. To ensure that all wiring is monitored the binary input must be at the end of the looped
wiring.
Resistors must be continuously rated and where possible should be of wire-wound construction.

NOTE:
To achieve higher isolation, in the dual TCS application, it is recommended to maintain one Binary Input channel

NOTE:
Use the correct threshold voltages for BI when using TCS with 2 BI.
NOTE:
It is recommended to use Resistor (R), when the low voltage BI is used in the high voltage application. For e.g:
BI44 is used 220 V DC application.
With use of Resistor(R) mentioned above, BI threshold will increase due to voltage drop across external resistor.

5.5 Inrush Detector (81HBL2)

This element detects the presence of high levels of 2nd Harmonic current which is indicative of transformer Inrush
current at switch-on. These currents may be above the operate level of the overcurrent elements for a short
duration and it is important that the relay does not issue an incorrect trip command for this transient network
condition.
If a magnetic inrush condition is detected operation of the overcurrent elements can be blocked.
nd
Calculation of the magnetising inrush current level is complex. However a ratio of 20% 2 Harmonic to
Fundamental current will meet most applications without compromising the integrity of the Overcurrent protection.
There are 3 methods of detection and blocking during the passage of magnetising inrush current.
Phase Blocking only occurs in those phases where Inrush is detected.
Large, Single Phase Transformers – Auto-transformers.
Cross All 3-phases are blocked if Inrush is detected in any phase.
Traditional application for most Transformers but can give delayed operation for Switch-
on to Earth Fault conditions.
Sum Composite 2nd Harmonic content derived for all 3-phases and then compared to
Fundamental current for each individual phase.
Provides good compromise between Inrush stability and fast fault detection.
Table 5-4 Magnetic Inrush Bias
5.6 Broken Conductor / Load Imbalance (46BC)

Used to detect an open circuit condition when a conductor breaks or a mal-operation occurs in phase segregated
switchgear.
There will be little or no fault current and so overcurrent elements will not detect the condition. However the
condition can be detected because there will be a high content of NPS (unbalance) current present.
However if the line is on light load, the negative phase sequence current may be very close to, to less than the full
load steady state unbalance arising from CT errors, load unbalance etc. This means a simple negative phase
sequence element would not operate.
With such faults a measurable amount of zero sequence current will be produced, but even this will not be
sensitive enough.
To detect such a fault it is necessary to evaluate the ratio of negative phase current (NPS) to positive phase
current (PPS), since the ratio is approximately constant with variations in load current and allows a more sensitive
setting to be achieved.
In the case of a single point earthed system, there will be little ZPS current and the ratio of NPS/PPS in the
protected circuit will approach 100%
In the case of a multiple earthed system (assuming equal impedances in each sequence network) an NPS / PPS
ratio of 50% will result from a Broken Conductor condition. This ratio may vary depending upon the location of the
fault and it is therefore recommended to apply a setting as sensitive as possible.
In practice, this minimum setting is governed by the levels of standing NPS current present on the system. This
can be determined from a system study or measured during commissioning making sure it is measured during
maximum system load conditions to ensure all single phase loads are included.
Operation is subject to a time delay to prevent operation for transitory effects, a minimum delay of 50sec may be
recommended.
5.6.1 Broken Conductor example

Information recorded during commissioning:
I full load = 500A

I NPS = 50A
Therefore the ratio is given by 50/500 = 0.1
To allow for tolerances and load variation a setting of 200% of this value is recommended and
therefore the ratio for 46BC setting should be set at 20%.
To allow for adequate time for short circuit fault clearance by time delayed protection the 46BC delay
should be set to 50seconds.
To ensure the broken conductor protection does not operate incorrectly during low load conditions,
where the three phases are less than 10% of normal load, the element should be inhibited by setting
the 46BC U/C Guarded to Yes and selecting a 46BC U/C Guard Setting to 0.1 x In
5.7 Circuit-Breaker Maintenance

2
The Relay provides Total, Delta and Frequent CB Operation Counters along with an I t Counter to estimate the
amount of wear and tear experienced by a Circuit-Breaker. Alarm can be provided once set levels have been
exceeded.
Typically estimates obtained from previous circuit-breaker maintenance schedules or manufacturers data sheets
are used for setting these alarm levels. The relay instrumentation provides the current values of these counters.
