Protection and Control
The L90 is a high-end cost effective
line current differential protection relay
intended for transmission lines and cables
of different voltages levels providing
reliable and secure operation even under
the worst case power system conditions.
The L90 provides high-speed phase-
segregated fault clearance suitable for
single and three-pole tripping applications.
Part of the Universal Relay family, the L90
comes with a variety of versatile features
truly integrating protection, monitoring,
metering, communication and control in
one easy-to-use device. The Universal Relay
family offers a high degree of modularity
in its design and functionality providing
superior performance in protection and
control meeting the toughest requirements
of the marketplace.
Segregated Current Differential
Protection
The L90 is a phase segregated current
differential protection relay, which uses
superior and patented algorithms to
address the challenges of bandwidth ,
security, dependability and sensitivity in
current differential relaying.
Bandwidth requirements are effectively
addressed by means of a patented new
data consolidation technique called
phaselets. This permits application within
a communications bandwidth of 64 Kbps,
and can detect faults within a half cycle
plus channel delay.
The L90 innovative dual slope adaptive
restraint characteristic, based on estimates
of measurement errors, allow the relay to
be secure on severe external faults while
maintaining sensitivity for internal faults.
The estimate of errors in the input currents
permits more sensitive settings than those
used in the traditional percent differential
schemes.
The L90 approach to clock synchronization
rel i es upon preci se di stri buted
synchronization. Clocks are phase
synchronized to each other and frequency
synchronized to the power system
frequency. Each relay compares its clock
to the phase of the other clocks and
makes appropriate adjustments. This
allows for greater transient ride-through
for power system and communications
disturbances.
Enhanced additional security is provided
by a sensitive current disturbance detector,
which can be used to supervise the current
differential element.
Ground Differential 87G
The Ground Differential function 87G
protects against low-current single line-
to-ground faults. It has a single slope
characteristic and uses the vectorial sum
of all in-zone phase currents to calculate
the Neutral differential current. with the
maximum value of phase current being
used as restraint. This function together
The L90 is the single point for protection, control, metering, and monitoring in one integrated device
that can easily be connected directly into DCS or SCADA monitoring and control systems like Viewpoint
Monitoring as shown.

with the phase differential delivers
enhanced sensibility and selectivity to the
protection scheme.
Charging Current Compensation
For l ong transmi ssi on l i nes and
underground cables, the charging current
may be large and result in excessively high
pickup settings. The L90 can dynamically
compensate the charging current thus
increasing its sensitivity to the fault current
on long transmission lines.
Enhanced Monitoring Features
The L90 uses an advanced error detection
and supervising functions to secure the
L90 against misoperation due to erroneous
data. High bit errors are addressed by
means of computing a 32 bit CRC check
sums effectively addressing the concerns
of multiple bit errors due to high channel
noise.
On mul ti pl exed channel s, channel
asymmetry may be expected due to path
switching spurious differential currents,
which can endanger the security of the
differential system. By using GPS time
synchronization, up to 10ms of channel
asymmetry can be compensated for. Extra
security has been implemented in the L90
to ensure proper operation on the event of
IRIG-B signal failure.
Integrated channel monitoring provides
real-time diagnostic data on the health
of the L90. Communications channel
deterioration or failure will activate an
alarm, and can be used to enable backup
protection. Channel propagation delay
is monitored and adjusted according to
variations in communication paths.
Communication Topologies
Relays can communicate through direct
fiber, RS422, G.703, IEEE C37.94 interfaces
at 64Kbps, with extensive channel
monitoring and diagnostics are included.
In a current differential scheme, the L90s
exchange data via the communication
link, acting either as master collecting
data, making calculations and making
all relevant trip and restraint decisions,
or as slave only transmitting current
data to the one acting as master. For two
terminal applications, use the redundant
communications capability of the L90 for
optimal reliability of the current differential
line protection. For this scheme, data
is continuously transmitted over both
Overvoltage and undervoltage
protection
Long lines under lightly loaded conditions
or no-load may experience voltages
exceeding rated per unit voltage level
of the line. Use the phase overvoltage
element of the L90 to initiate a local trip as
well as a remote trip using direct transfer
trip.
Overcurrent Functions
The L90 provides overcurrent functions
for phase, neutral and ground which can
run parallel with the primary differential
element or can be programmed to provide
primary protection under conditions the
differential element is not available.
Single-Pole Tripping
The L90 relay uses a state-of- the-art dual
phase selection algorithm that provides
fast and accurate fault type identification
even under weak-infeed conditions.
Typical two and three terminal application of L90. L90 supports a variety of media cards for signalling
between L90s including direct multimode or single mode fibre, RS422, G.703 and IEEE C37.94.
Typical Applications
channels, so if a failure occurs, the L90
will continue to provide current differential
protection.
For three terminal applications, advanced
inter-relay communication features
eliminate the need for redundant
communication channels due to the ability
of the L90 to automatically switch between
master and slave mode, maintaining a
dependable system even with a failure of
one of the communication channels.
Distance
Separate high-speed phase and ground
distance elements are provided for optional
supervision with tapped transformers and
as a back-up during channel failures or
unavailability. The back-up distance the
functions in L90 come with three zones
of phase and ground distance (mho or
quad). The phase distance elements
come with built-in in-zone transformer
compensation. The L90 also provides
a load encroachment element , which
supervises the distance elements under
heavy line loading conditions.

Direct transfer trip (DTT)
Use the direct transfer trip feature of L90
to trip remote breaker. Both single pole
and three pole direct transfer trips are
supported. Up to eight signals can be
sent over pilot communications channels
selectable through user configurable
logic.
Autoreclosing
The L90 provides multi-shot auto reclosing
for single pole or three pole auto relcose
on all types of faults with independently
settable dead time for each shot . Auto-
reclose can be dynamically blocked by
user programmable logic. Four different
auto-relcose modes are available enabling
the users to select the reclosing mode to
suit specific applications.
Synchronism Check
The L90 monitors voltage difference,
phase angle difference and slip frequency
to ensure proper breaker closure as per
user requirements. The L90 provides
additional enhancements in synchronizing
by checking dead source conditions
for synchronism bypass under these
conditions.
Breaker Failure
The L90 is able to provide fully independent
breaker failure protection for the breakers
associated to the line when connected to
a substation with a breaker-and-a-half or
ring bus arrangement. The L90 provides
the required elements to perform two
independent breaker failure functions.
Multiple Breaker Configurations
The L90 supports multi-breaker busbar
configurations such as breaker-and-a-half
or ring bus arrangements, providing dual
breaker auto reclose, dual synch-check
elements, and dual independent Breaker
Failure elements. The design provides
secure operation during external faults
with possible CT saturation
Special Applications - Distributed
Busbar
Use the L90s capability of supporting
up to 4 directly connected CTs for
applications where the use of conventional
bus differential relaying is not practical
or economically feasible. The L90 can
be used to protect both line and buses
by measuring currents from the feeder
CTs as shown. The L90 provides primary
protection for both the buses and the
circuit connecting them.
