The numerical transformer terminal RET 521-C3 is designed for fast and selective protection and control of three-winding transformers, auto-transformers, generatortransformer blocks and shunt reactors. The RET 521-C3 has low requirements on the main Current Transformers and no interposing CTs are necessary. Flexibility is provided to cover for different applications in form of transformer size, vector groups and system neutral earthing. For big and important transformers such as generator-transformer blocks or large auto transformers two RET 521-C3 can be used to obtain redundancy. Using programmable logic provides a very compact design for protection and control. For changes in the programmable logic the CAP-tool is required. The RET 521-C3 includes setting adaptation to power transformer rating and instrument transformer ratios to allow protection settings in percent (%), of the power transformer rating, thus facilitating the protection settings. The RET 521-C3 can be applied for 3-winding applications as indicated in Figure 1:

The differential protection for three windings is one of the most important functions for fast and selective protection of transformers. The RET 521-C3 is provided with internal adaptation for CT ratio matching and vector group compensation, which allows connection directly to Y-connected main CTs. Zero sequence current elimination is made internally but can alternatively be turned off. All current inputs are provided with restraint features, making the RET 521-C3 suitable for multibreaker arrangements. The setting facilities cover for application of the differential protection to power transformers with or without tap changer and for multi-breaker arrangements. An adaptive differential feature is included for through-faults. By introducing the tap changer position to RET 521C3, the differential protection pick-up can be set to optimum sensitivity covering low level internal fault currents. Stabilization is included to avoid differential protection tripping for inrush currents and for overexcitation. Stabilization is also included for system recovery inrush and CT saturation for external faults. Crossblocking between phases is normally used, but it can alternatively be turned off. A fast high set unrestrained differential current protection is also included for high speed tripping at high internal fault currents. Service values for differential currents, bias current and tap position are available.

A single-phase time delayed overvoltage protection is included. The overvoltage protection is recommended as backup for sustained system overvoltages. The overvoltage protection is provided with two settable voltage levels, and both levels are provided with definite time delay. The low stage can alternatively have an inverse time delay. Service values for the highest phase voltage is available.
7LPH GHOD\HG /9 QHXWUDO YROWDJH SURWHF WLRQ 729

A time delayed neutral voltage protection is included. The above described single-phase overvoltage protection is also suitable as neutral overvoltage protection. The overvoltage protection measures the fundamental frequency component and is therefore insensitive for 3rd and higher harmonics. When used as a neutral overvoltage protection it is typically connected to a VT in the neutral of the transformer or to an open delta connection of the secondary windings of a three-phase set of VTs. As a neutral overvoltage protection it is normally used in high impedance earthed systems, and is given a longer time delay than the feeder earth fault protections.

An overexcitation protection is included in RET 521-C3. The overexcitation protection is based on voltage/frequency (V/Hz) measurement. The IEEE trip time inverse characteristic can be set to follow the transformer characteristic and a cooling time memory is included. The trip time characteristic is also provided with definite minimum and maximum times. As an alternative a transformer adapted time delay characteristic can be set and used for close adaptation to the transformer capability characteristic. Separate trip and alarm outputs are included.

Three units of the restricted earth fault protection are included. REF is an instantaneous earth current differential protection for solidly or low impedance earthed systems. It is applied for each transformer winding. The protection is a stabilized low impedance type and is unaffected by inrush currents or external faults. The protection is also stabilized against CT saturation. A directional feature and adaptive 2nd harmonic restraining is included in the protection. Service values for differential current and bias current are available.

Service values for relative excitation status voltage/frequency, thermal status and timeto-trip are available.

The voltage control function included in RET 521-C3 is used to maintain the user preset voltage at the low voltage side of the transformer, i.e. at the busbar or at the feeder ends. Constant voltage is obtained by controlling the tap changer position by raise and lower commands. The delay for the regulating command can be of inverse or definite type. Blocking is included for overcurrent and undervoltage, power system emergencies and tap changer end positions. Line drop compensation is included. A load shedding based on voltage reduction is also included. A built-in power measuring function can be used to create selectivity with other equipment influencing on the system voltage. Number of tap changer operations can be recorded for determining the service intervals. Remote or local command possibilities are included. Alarms from the tap changer auxiliary equipment (binary contacts) can be connected to the voltage control function. The tap changer position is monitored by 4-20 mA-inputs to the voltage control function. (17 positions are considered in the configuration). If the number of tap position are other than 17, the tap position number on the MIM block in the configuration has to be changed by use of the CAP-tool. Service values for busbar voltage, compensated voltage, actual set voltage, load voltage adjustment, tap changer position, contact life calculation and no of operation counter are available

RET 521-C3 has wide setting facilities to ensure application flexibility. Factory default settings are chosen to indicate typical setting values or choices. The settings are organized as general settings and settings for each separate function. The main data (ratings) of the protected transformer and ratios of the instrument transformers are entered in the terminal setting and configuration menus. Most of the setting parameters of the particular functions can then be made as per unit (p.u.) or percent (%) values related to the power transformer rating. For some protection functions there also exist a possibility to define the rated value in the setting menu to another value than the power transformer rating. Most timers are set in seconds. There is a possibility to enter one to four complete groups of settings. It is then easy to switch between these groups locally or from remote. Settings can be changed from the front Human-Machine-Interface (HMI), or by a portable personal computer (PC), with a parameter setting program (PST), included in CAP 540, connected to a fibre-optic connector socket at the front, or from another location over a data communication system.

External contacts, e.g. from transformer overtemperature devices and Buchholz gas detector, can be connected via Binary Inputs. Logic can be arranged for alarm, event logging and tripping. For redundancy reasons it is recommended to route tripping from the Buchholz or overpressure device in parallel to RET 521-C3.
7ULSSLQJ PDWUL[

The tripping commands are configured to trip logic blocks, which then are configured to the tripping output relays. Each trip logic block (OR gate) has 16 inputs. 4 trip logic blocks are used in the standard configuration. An additional 9 blocks are available using the CAP-tool.

Operation indications and time-tagged events are available from the front HMI or a connected PC and from another location over a data communication system. Actual input quantity values, load, differential current and other service values can also be read from the terminal.

Numerical transformer protection and control terminal type RET 521-C3 with continuous self monitoring and analogue/digital conversion of all input quantities. The terminal is suitable for protection, control and monitoring of three-winding transformers, auto-transformers, generatortransformer block units and also for applications with multi-breaker arrangements. The numerical transformer terminal is designed to operate correctly over a wide frequency range to accommodate for system frequency variations during generator start-up or shut-down. The differential protection for three windings is provided with adaptive 2nd harmonic and Waveblock restraint features to avoid tripping

at magnetizing inrush and 5th harmonic restraint to avoid tripping at overexcitation. The differential protection has a settable restraint characteristic and is provided with an adaptive differential feature for multibreaker arrangements. The differential function is stable for external faults followed by heavy CT saturation and recovery inrush. Tap-changer position indication is used to provide maximum sensitivity for the differential protection. A high-set unrestrained differential current protection is included. Three restricted earth fault protections, a single-phase time delayed overvoltage protection, a time delayed neutral voltage protection and an overexcitation protection are included in the RET521-C3.
