4.5 Energy:
Note:
** Reverse reactive energy (ERRACC) doesn’t appear in software measurements but it can be read from
relay display. In relay display, energy values are displayed in TWsec & TVARsec. These values can be
converted to MWH & MVARH as follows:
1TWsec = 1000000MW * (1/3600) hour = 277.778 MWH
1TVARsec = 277.778 MVARH
For example, when energy values on display are:
EAFACC = 6.690 TWsec
EARACC = 2.041 TWsec
ERFACC = 2.777 TVARsec
Values converted to MWH & MVARH:
EAFACC = 6.690 * 277.778 = 1858.335 MWH
EARACC = 2.041 * 277.778 = 566.945 MWH

*** Note:
In test mode, start LED is flashing & all functions are automatically blocked. It is then possible to unblock
every function(s) individually from the local HMI to perform required tests. When leaving test mode, all
blockings are removed and the IED resumes normal operation. However, if during test mode operation,
power is removed and later restored, the IED will remain in test mode with the same protection functions
blocked or unblocked as before the power was removed.
When the IED is in test mode, the disturbance report can be made active or inactive.
Settings for the control of the disturbance recorder during test mode are located in the local HMI under:

8.1 Pickup values:
8.1.1 Restrained characteristic section 1 sensitivity (IdMin):
Inject current less than expected value for operation and increase gradually until signal operates. Decrease
current gradually until signal resets. Signal START (common start) of function block L6CPDIF can be used.
Other signals available are STL1, STL2 & STL3 (start phase L1, L2 & L3 respectively).
Setting: IdMin = 0.4 IBASE
Results:
Phase Expected value (A) Pick-up (A) Drop-off (A)

A 0.402 0.383
B 0.400 0.401 0.383
C 0.402 0.384
Note:
Compensation for charging currents can be selected active or not by setting “ChargCurEnable” on or off.
Above results are obtained with this parameter set to “Off”. If set to “On”, pick-up value = 0.802A & drop-
off value = 0.382A.
Effect of this parameter on differential measurements is shown in the following figures:
➢ Injecting 0.3A (< 0.4 IBASE) with “ChargCurEnable” on

Injected current appears as bias current
Differential current for 3 phases = 0 & injected current appears as charging current (primary value =
0.3 * 3000 = 900A).
Negative sequence differential current (IDNSMAG) = injected value / 3 (900 / 3 = 300A)

➢ With the same injection but “ChargCurEnable” off:

Charging current “ICHARGE” = 0 & differential current in injected phase = bias current (primary
value = 0.3 * 3000 = 900A).
➢ Injecting 0.5A (> 0.4 IBASE) with “ChargCurEnable” on:

Injected current appears as bias current (primary value = 0.5 * 3000 = 1500A).
Charging current is fixed at 0.4 IBASE (primary value = 0.4 * 3000 = 1200A). Differential current in
injected phase = 1500 – 1200 = 300A

8.1.2 Unrestrained differential current limit (IdUnre):
Inject current less than expected value for operation and increase gradually until signal TRIPUNRE of
function block L6CPDIF operates (trip by unrestrained differential protection). Decrease current gradually
until signal resets.
Setting: IdUnre = 50 IBASE
Note: Due to high value, it is tested for reduced setting (45 IBASE). Maximum output current of Freja = 15A.
3 phases can be connected in parallel & 3 ph. currents with same angle are injected. Relay current = injected
current * 3.
Results:
Phase Expected value (A) ** Pick-up (A) Drop-off (A)

A 3*14.972 = 44.916 3*14.212 = 42.636

• Alarm delay is measured by injecting current greater than setting IdiffAlarm.

• Trip time is measured by injecting current greater than setting IdMinHigh & another time by
injecting current between IdMin & IdMinHigh.

➢ Section 1: I OPERATE = 0.4 for 0 ≤ I RESTRAIN ≤ 1.25
➢ Section 2: (for 1.25 ≤ I RESTRAIN ≤ 3):

(I OPERATE – 0.4) / (I RESTRAIN – 1.25) = 40 %
I OPERATE – 0.4 = 0.4 I RESTRAIN – 0.5
I OPERATE = 0.4 + 0.4 I RESTRAIN – 0.5
I OPERATE = 0.4 I RESTRAIN – 0.1
➢ Section 3: (for I RESTRAIN ≥ 3):

(I OPERATE – I OP B) / (I RESTRAIN – 3) = 80 % where I OP B is the operate current for point B.
I OP B can be calculated by equation of section 2 by putting I RESTRAIN = 3
I OP B = 0.4 * 3 – 0.1 = 1.2 – 0.1 = 1.1
So, equation of section 3 is:
(I OPERATE – 1.1) / (I RESTRAIN – 3) = 80 %
I OPERATE – 1.1 = 0.8 I RESTRAIN – 2.4
I OPERATE = 1.1 + 0.8 I RESTRAIN – 2.4
I OPERATE = 0.8 I RESTRAIN – 1.3
Results:
• Restrain current is the highest phase current.

• Slope characteristic can be tested by injecting fixed current in one phase & ramp current in another
phase.
• Slope of phase L1 can be tested by injecting 1.5 A in phase L2 (corresponding primary value = 1.5 *
3000 = 4500 A) & ramp current in phase L1. Measurements of differential protection are as
follows:

• By this injection, signals STL2, TRL2, START & TRIP operate. Bias (restrain) current is common
for 3 phases.
• Slope of phase L1 can be checked by operation of signal STL1. It should operate when

Note:
Input signal “DISCPOS” is supposed to be connected via a terminal binary input to N.C. auxiliary contact of
the line disconnector. The DISCPOS signal sets the output signal BLKU in order to block the voltage related
functions when the line disconnector is open. The impedance protection function is not affected by the
position of the line disconnector since there will be no line currents that can cause malfunction of the
distance protection. When “DISCPOS” = 0, it signifies that the line is connected to the system. When the
“DISCPOS” = 1, it signifies that the line is disconnected from the system & output “BLKU” is activated.

protection, synchro-check and so on) except for the impedance protection. The function output
“BLKZ” shall be used for blocking the impedance protection function. (page 545 in relay manual)
• Output “BLKZ” of function block “SDDRFUF” (fuse failure)is connected to input “VTSZ” of
function blocks of all distance zones to block distance protection in case of VT fuse failure.
11.7.1 Blocking distance protection by fuse failure:
• Inject values to get fuse failure.

• Inject distance protection fault. Result: no trip.
• Reset fuse failure by injecting normal voltages.
• Inject distance protection fault. Result: trip.
• Activate BI of VT MCB to activate output of fuse failure function block.
• Inject distance protection fault. Result: no trip.
• De-activate BI of VT MCB to reset output of fuse failure function block.

• During power swing, the measured impedance varies with time along a locus in an impedance
plane. This locus can enter the operating characteristic of a distance protection and cause, if no
preventive measures have been considered, its unwanted operation.
• Power swing detection comprises an inner and an outer quadrilateral measurement
characteristic. Its principle of operation is based on the measurement of the time it takes for a
power swing transient impedance to pass through the impedance area between the outer and the
inner characteristics. Power swings are identified by transition times longer than a transition
time set on corresponding timers.
• Function block ZMRPSB has 3 outputs:
START: Power swing detected
ZOUT: Measured impedance within outer impedance boundary
ZIN: Measured impedance within inner impedance boundary
Results:
➢ Reaches of outer & inner boundaries are attached.

➢ Power swing is detected if measured impedance stays between outer & inner boundaries
for a period greater than time setting tP1.
It can be tested by changing rate of change of impedance.

16. Stub protection:

Stub protection STBPTOC covers the zone between the current transformers and the open disconnector. The
three-phase instantaneous over-current function is released from auxiliary contact on the line disconnector.
Settings:
Parameter ReleaseMode can be set Release or Continuous. With Release setting, the function is only active
when a binary release signal RELEASE into the function is activated. This signal is normally taken from an
auxiliary contact (normally closed) of the line disconnector. With Continuous setting, the function is
activated independent of presence of any external release signal.

18. Current reversal:

If parallel lines are connected to common busbars at both terminals, overreaching permissive
communication schemes can trip unselectively due to fault current reversal. To avoid this type of
disturbance, fault current reversal logic (transient blocking logic) can be used.
18.1 Current reversal with distance protection:
• When the reverse zone has been activated for a certain settable time ‘tPickUpRev’, it prevents
sending of a communication signal and activation of trip signal for a predefined time ‘tDelayRev’.

This makes it possible for the receive signal to reset before the trip signal is activated due to the
current reversal by the forward directed zone.
• Reverse fault must be available for time greater than ‘tPickUpRev’ so that after it if forward fault
occurs, relay senses it as current reversal. If reverse fault is available for less than ‘tPickupRev’. It
will not be considered as current reversal.
• To measure pickup time of current reversal logic (tPickUpRev): Inject reverse fault & stop timer by
operation of IRVL output (Operation of current reversal logic) of function block ZCRWPSCH
Setting: 40 ms
Result: 58.7 ms
• To delay sending of a communication signal and activation of trip signal in case of current reversal,
BLKTR & BLKCS inputs of function block ZCPSCH (scheme communication logic for distance or
overcurrent protection) are connected to IRVL output (Operation of current reversal logic) of
function block ZCRWPSCH (Current reversal and WEI logic for distance protection).
• If current reversal is detected, trip & carrier send signal are delayed. Delay time is set by parameter
‘tDelayRev’.
➢ To measure delay of trip, use TRIP output of function block ZCPSCH
➢ To measure delay of carrier send signal, use CS output (carrier send signal) of function
block ZCPSCH.

19. Weak end infeed (WEI):
19.1 Weak end infeed with distance protection:
• Weak-end infeed logic is used in cases where the apparent power behind the protection can be too
low to activate the distance protection function.
• The weak-end infeed logic (WEI) function sends back (echoes) the received signal to accelerate the
sending end under the condition that no fault has been detected on the weak-end by different fault
detection elements (distance protection in forward and reverse direction).
• When activated, received carrier signal together with local undervoltage criteria and no reverse zone
operation gives an instantaneous trip. (if setting parameter “WEI” (operating mode of WEI logic) is
set to “Echo & Trip”).
• In final setting, operating mode of WEI logic is set to “Echo”. Received signal is sent back (echoed)
after ‘tPickupWEI’.
• To avoid a continuous lockup of the system, the duration of the echoed signal is limited to 200 ms.
• To measure ‘tPickupWEI’, start timer by distance CR & stop by output ECHO of function block
ZCRWPSCH.
• To measure duration of echo signal, start timer by operation of output contact configured with
output ECHO of function block ZCRWPSCH. Stop timer when the same output contact resets.

• Purpose of echo signal is to accelerate sending end. With this setting of 60 sec, there is no benefit of
echo signal. In normal cases, CR signal will not continue for this time because sending end will trip
after time of Z2.

• SESRSYN function is used for synchro-check, energizing check, and synchronizing. Relay has 2
elements. SESRSYN 1 is used for bus breaker Q0-1 & SESRSYN 2 is used for tie breaker Q0-3.

• Synchro-check function measures the conditions across the circuit breaker and compares them to set
limits. The output is only given when all measured quantities are simultaneously within their set
limits.
• Energizing check function allows closing when one side of the breaker is dead. It measures voltages
on the busbar and the line to verify whether they are live or dead. This is done by comparing with
the set values “UHighBusEnerg” and “ULowBusEnerg” for bus and “UHighLineEnerg” and
“ULowLineEnerg” for line.
• Synchronizing function allows closing of asynchronous networks at the correct moment including
the breaker closing time, which improves the network stability. The main purpose of the
synchronizing function is to provide controlled closing of circuit breakers when two asynchronous
systems are going to be connected. It is used for slip frequencies that are larger than those for
synchro-check and lower than a set maximum level for the synchronizing function.
This function is disabled for both bus breaker & tie breaker.
• SESRSYN function block has 4 voltage inputs (busbar1, busbar2, lin1 & line2). The voltage
selection type to be used is set with the parameter “CBConfig”. If “No voltage sel.” is set, the
default voltages used will be U-Line1 and U-Bus1. This is the case when external voltage selection
is provided (as in our case).
➢ For SESRSYN 1 (used with Q0-1): Channel 7 is used as line1 voltage & channel 10 is used
as busbar1 voltage.
➢ For SESRSYN 2 (used with Q0-3): Channel 7 is used as line1 voltage & channel 12 is used
as busbar1 voltage.
• Fuse failure supervision for the used inputs must also be connected. External fuse failure signals or
signals from a tripped fuse switch/MCB are connected to binary inputs that are configured to the
inputs of SESRSYN function in the IED. Alternatively, the internal signals from fuse failure
supervision can be used when available. In the event of fuse failure, energizing check function is
blocked. Synchronizing and synchro-check functions require full voltage on both sides and will be
blocked automatically in the event of fuse failure. Output signal “USELFAIL” if
is true if the selected bus or line voltages have a fuse failure.

b. Voltage setting for dead line:
Setting = 0.40 * 66.4 = 26.56 V

Starting injection with normal voltage in channel 10 (> setting of live bus) & line voltage = 27 V (>
setting of dead line): output AUTOENOK = 0
Decreasing line voltage, output AUTOENOK = 1 when line voltage = 26.60 V
Increasing line voltage, output AUTOENOK = 0 when line voltage = 26.64 V
--------------------------------------------------------------------
c. Voltage setting for live bus:
Setting = 0.80 * 66.4 = 53.12 V

Starting injection with voltage in channel 10 = 51 V (< setting of live bus) & line voltage = 0 (or <
setting of dead line): output AUTOENOK = 0
Increasing bus voltage, output AUTOENOK = 1 when bus voltage = 53.20 V
Decreasing bus voltage, output AUTOENOK = 0 when bus voltage = 53.17 V
--------------------------------------------------------------------
d. Maximum voltage for energizing:
Setting = 1.15 * 66.4 = 76.36 V

Starting injection with voltage in channel 10 = 51 V (between setting of live bus & maximum
voltage for energizing) & line voltage = 0 (or < setting of dead line): output AUTOENOK = 1
Increasing bus voltage, output AUTOENOK = 0 when bus voltage = 76.45 V
Decreasing bus voltage, output AUTOENOK = 1 when bus voltage = 76.41 V

21. Auto-reclosing:
• With the setting Operation = External ctrl, the activation/deactivation is made by input signal
pulses, for example, from a control system.
• When the function is set On and is operative the output SETON is high. Other input conditions such
as CBPOS and CBREADY must also be fulfilled. At this point the auto-reclosing is prepared to start
the reclosing cycle and the output signal READY on the SMBRREC function block is high.

• In multi-breaker arrangement, CB which was not closed when a fault occurred should not be closed
by auto-reclosing function. CB position is connected to input ‘CBPOS’ of function block
SMBRREC. Type of CB auxiliary contact (NO / NC) is determined by parameter
‘CBAuxContType’.
• CB is checked to be closed for a certain length of time before the starting occurred (tCBClosedMin).
• CB closing command ‘CLOSECB’ is a pulse with a duration set by parameter ‘tPulse’.

• Up to four different time settings can be used for open time for the first shot, and one extension
time. There are separate settings for single-, two- and three-phase auto-reclosing open time, t1 1Ph,
t1 2Ph, t1 3Ph. If no particular input signal is applied, and an autoreclosing program with single-
phase reclosing is selected, the auto-reclosing open time t1 1Ph will be used. If one of the inputs
TR2P or TR3P is activated in connection with the start, the auto-reclosing open time for two-phase
or three-phase reclosing is used.
• The reclaim timer defines a time from the issue of the reclosing command, after which the reclosing
function resets. If a new trip occurs during this time, it is treated as a continuation of the first fault.
Depending on the setting for the number of reclosing shots, further shots may be made or the
reclosing sequence will be ended. After the reclaim time has elapsed, the auto-reclosing function
resets but the CB remains open. The CB closed data at the CBPOS input will be missing. So, the
reclosing function will not be ready for a new reclosing cycle.
• After the reclosing command the reclaim timer tReclaim starts running for the set time. If no
tripping occurs within this time, the auto-reclosing will reset. If a new trip occurs after the CB
closing command, and a new input signal START or TRSOTF appears, the output “UNSUCCL”
(unsuccessful closing) is set high.
• Auto-reclose unsuccessful “UNSUCCL” signal can be made to depend on CB position input. The
parameter “UnsucClByCBChk” (Unsuccessful closing signal obtained by checking CB position)
should then be set to “CBCheck”. If the CB does not respond to the closing command and does not
close, but remains open, the output “UNSUCCL” is set high after time “tUnsucCl”. In our case, it is
set to ”NoCBCheck”.
• Input “PLCLOST” can be used to extend the open time if the communication channel for permissive
line protection is lost. In such a case there can be a significant time difference in fault clearance at
the two ends of the line. A longer “auto-reclosing open time” can then be useful. This extension time

added to the normal shot 1 delay is set by tExtended t1 & is controlled by setting parameter
Extended t1 = On and the input “PLCLOST”.
• In normal circumstances the trip command resets quickly because of fault clearance. The user can
set a maximum trip pulse duration “tTrip”. A longer trip signal extends the auto-reclosing open time
by tExtended t1 (auto-reclosing open time extension delay added to the normal shot 1 delay). If
Extended t1=Off (as in our case), a long trip signal interrupts the reclosing sequence in the same
way as a signal to input “INHIBIT”.
• Multiple auto-reclosing functions are provided for multi-breaker arrangements. A priority circuit
allows one circuit breaker to close first and the second will only close if the fault proved to be
transient. One auto-reclosing function (Master) is set with Priority=High and the other (Slave) with
Priority=Low. There should be interconnections from the Master to the Slave function;
WFMASTER – WAIT, and UNSUCCL – INHIBIT. Output “WFMASTER” of high priority auto-
reclosing function block (bus CB) is connected to input “WAIT” of low priority auto-reclosing
function block (tie CB). Output “UNSUCCL” of bus CB auto-reclosing function block is connected
to input “INHIBIT” of tie CB auto-reclosing function block.
• The maximum waiting time, “tWaitForMaster” of the second CB is set longer than the “auto-
reclosing open time” and a margin for synchro-check at the first CB.
• Each auto-reclosing function is configured to co-operate with the synchro-check function. The
synchro-check or energizing check must be fulfilled within a set time interval, tSync. If it is not, or if
other conditions are not met, the reclosing is interrupted and blocked.
• Input SYNC is required for three phase shots 1-5 to proceed. Input START makes a first attempt
with synchro-check; STARTHS makes its first attempt without synchro-check. TRSOTF starts shots
2-5.
• Auto-reclosing is configured to operate with 1-phase instantaneous trip. Input START in both auto-
reclosing function blocks is connected to signal “START_AR” configured as follows:
• Signal “Differential 1-phase start” above is configured as follows:

• For auto-reclosing function to operate with synchro-check, input “TR3P” should be activated. So, it
is connected also to signal “START_AR”. In this case, timer “t1 3Ph” is used as open time for 1st
shot. So, it is set with same value as “t1 1Ph”.

can be avoided during test by setting “tSCA” = 0. In this case, between AR start & close command =
0.510 sec
• For measuring reclaim time, start timer by “CLOSECB” output & stop timer by “READY” output
(ready for a new sequence).
• For measuring CB closing pulse, output contact is configured with “CLOSECB” output. Start timer
when this contact closes & stop timer when it opens.
• For measuring “tSync”, output contact is configured with “INPROGR” output. Start timer when this
contact closes & stop timer when it opens. Synch is not satisfied during injection.
Signal “INPROGR” starts with input “START” but input “SYNC” is checked after open time. Due
to open time, measured length of “INPROGR” signal = 30.516 sec for bus CB (open time + tSync =
0.5 + 30 = 30.5 sec) & 31.017 sec for tie CB (open time + tSync = 1 + 30 = 31 sec).
• For “tinhibit”, activate “INHIBIT” input. Output “READY” will be 0. Remove “INHIBIT” input.
Output “READY” will be 1 after “tinhibit”.
• AR operates if synch condition is satisfied (input “SYNC” = 1) during “tSync”.
• If synch condition is satisfied for tie CB but not satisfied for bus CB, output “WFMASTER” of bus
CB AR = 1. So, input “WAIT” of tie CB AR = 1. As long as this input is available, it will prevent
close command for tie CB. If continued more than 2 sec (parameter “tWaitForMaster”), tie CB will
not close even if AR operated for bus CB & “WAIT” signal reset.
Length of “WAIT” signal can be measured by configuring output contact with output “WFMASTER” of
bus CB AR, starting timer when this contact closes & & stopping timer when it opens.
➢ With length of this signal = 1.798 sec (< 2 sec): both breakers close.

➢ With length of this signal = 2.199 sec (> 2 sec): bus breaker only closes.
• If bus CB is open before the fault, output “WFMASTER” of bus CB AR = 0. So, input “WAIT”
of tie CB AR = 0. If synch condition for tie CB is satisfied during “tSync”, tie CB closes.
