Section 1 Introduction
The technical manual contains operation principle descriptions, and lists function blocks,
logic diagrams, input and output signals, setting parameters and technical data, sorted per
function. The manual can be used as a technical reference during the engineering phase,
installation and commissioning phase, and during normal service.
This manual addresses system engineers and installation and commissioning personnel,
who use technical data during engineering, installation and commissioning, and in normal
service.
The system engineer must have a thorough knowledge of protection systems, protection
equipment, protection functions and the configured functional logic in the IEDs. The
installation and commissioning personnel must have a basic knowledge in handling
electronic equipment.

The engineering manual contains instructions on how to engineer the IEDs using the
various tools available within the PCM600 software. The manual provides instructions on
how to set up a PCM600 project and insert IEDs to the project structure. The manual also
recommends a sequence for the engineering of protection and control functions, LHMI
functions as well as communication engineering for IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 61850, DNP3,
LON and SPA.
The installation manual contains instructions on how to install the IED. The manual
provides procedures for mechanical and electrical installation. The chapters are organized
in the chronological order in which the IED should be installed.
The commissioning manual contains instructions on how to commission the IED. The
manual can also be used by system engineers and maintenance personnel for assistance
during the testing phase. The manual provides procedures for the checking of external
circuitry and energizing the IED, parameter setting and configuration as well as verifying
settings by secondary injection. The manual describes the process of testing an IED in a
substation which is not in service. The chapters are organized in the chronological order
in which the IED should be commissioned. The relevant procedures may be followed also
during the service and maintenance activities.
The operation manual contains instructions on how to operate the IED once it has been
commissioned. The manual provides instructions for the monitoring, controlling and
setting of the IED. The manual also describes how to identify disturbances and how to
view calculated and measured power grid data to determine the cause of a fault.
The application manual contains application descriptions and setting guidelines sorted per
function. The manual can be used to find out when and for what purpose a typical
protection function can be used. The manual can also provide assistance for calculating
settings.
The technical manual contains operation principle descriptions, and lists function blocks,
logic diagrams, input and output signals, setting parameters and technical data, sorted per
function. The manual can be used as a technical reference during the engineering phase,
installation and commissioning phase, and during normal service.
The point list manual describes the outlook and properties of the data points specific to the
IED. The manual should be used in conjunction with the corresponding communication
protocol manual.
The cyber security deployment guideline describes the process for handling cyber security
when communicating with the IED. Certification, Authorization with role based access
control, and product engineering for cyber security related events are described and sorted
by function. The guideline can be used as a technical reference during the engineering
phase, installation and commissioning phase, and during normal service.
1.4.1 Symbols
The electrical warning icon indicates the presence of a hazard which could
result in electrical shock.
The warning icon indicates the presence of a hazard which could result in
personal injury.
Class 1 Laser product. Take adequate measures to protect the eyes and do
not view directly with optical instruments.
The information icon alerts the reader of important facts and conditions.
The tip icon indicates advice on, for example, how to design your project
or how to use a certain function.
Although warning hazards are related to personal injury, it is necessary to understand that
under certain operational conditions, operation of damaged equipment may result in
degraded process performance leading to personal injury or death. It is important that the
user fully complies with all warning and cautionary notices.
• the character ^ in front of an input/output signal name indicates that the signal
name may be customized using the PCM600 software.
• the character * after an input signal name indicates that the signal must be
connected to another function block in the application configuration to achieve
a valid application configuration.
• Logic diagrams describe the signal logic inside the function block and are bordered
by dashed lines.
• Signals in frames with a shaded area on their right hand side represent setting
parameter signals that are only settable via the PST or LHMI.
• If an internal signal path cannot be drawn with a continuous line, the suffix -int
is added to the signal name to indicate where the signal starts and continues.
• Signal paths that extend beyond the logic diagram and continue in another
diagram have the suffix ”-cont.”
• Dimensions are provided both in inches and mm. If it is not specifically mentioned
then the dimension is in mm.

3.1 Introduction
Analog input channels must be configured and set properly in order to get correct
measurement results and correct protection operations. For power measuring and all
directional and differential functions the directions of the input currents must be defined
in order to reflect the way the current transformers are installed/connected in the field
( primary and secondary connections ). Measuring and protection algorithms in the IED
use primary system quantities. Setting values are in primary quantities as well and it is
important to set the data about the connected current and voltage transformers properly.
A reference PhaseAngleRef can be defined to facilitate service values reading. This analog
channels phase angle will always be fixed to zero degrees and all other angle information
will be shown in relation to this analog input. During testing and commissioning of the
IED the reference channel can be changed to facilitate testing and service values reading.
The hardware channels appear in the signal matrix tool (SMT) and in ACT
when a TRM is included in the configuration with the hardware
configuration tool. In the SMT or the ACT they can be mapped to the
desired virtual input (SMAI) of the IED and used internally in the
configuration.
3.3 Signals
3.4 Settings
The direction of a current depends on the connection of the CT. The main CTs are typically
star (WYE) connected and can be connected with the Star (WYE) point towards the object
or away from the object. This information must be set in the IED.
• Positive value of current or power means that the quantity has the direction into the
object.
• Negative value of current or power means that the quantity has the direction out from
the object.
For directional functions the directional conventions are defined as follows (see figure 2)

Measured quantity is Measured quantity is
positive when flowing positive when flowing

en05000456-2.vsd
ANSI05000456 V2 EN
The settings of the IED is performed in primary values. The ratios of the main CTs and
VTs are therefore basic data for the IED. The user has to set the rated secondary and
primary currents and voltages of the CTs and VTs to provide the IED with their rated
ratios.
The CT and VT ratio and the name on respective channel is done under Main menu/
Hardware/Analog modules in the Parameter Settings tool or on the HMI.
Table 28: TRM - Energizing quantities, rated values and limits for protection transformer modules
Quantity Rated value Nominal range
Current In = 1 or 5 A (0.2-40) × In
A time counter is used for filtering. The time counter is increased once in a millisecond
when a binary input is high, or decreased when a binary input is low. A new debounced
binary input signal is forwarded when the time counter reaches the set DebounceTime
value and the debounced input value is high or when the time counter reaches 0 and the
debounced input value is low. The default setting of DebounceTime is 1 ms.
The binary input ON-event gets the time stamp of the first rising edge, after which the
counter does not reach 0 again. The same happens when the signal goes down to 0 again.
An oscillation counter counts the debounced signal state changes during 1 s. If the counter
value is greater than the set value OscBlock, the input signal is blocked. The input signal
is ignored until the oscillation counter value during 1 s is below the set value OscRelease.

The function button and indication LED panels are not visible at the same time. Each panel
is shown by pressing one of the function buttons or the Multipage button. Pressing the
ESC button clears the panel from the display. Both panels have a dynamic width that
depends on the label string length.
5.5.1.3 LEDs
The LHMI includes three protection status LEDs above the display: Normal, Pickup and
Trip.
There are 15 programmable indication LEDs on the front of the LHMI. Each LED can
indicate three states with the colors: green, yellow and red. The texts related to each three-
color LED are divided into three panels.
There are 3 separate panels of LEDs available. The 15 physical three-color LEDs in one
LED group can indicate 45 different signals. Altogether, 135 signals can be indicated
since there are three LED groups. The LEDs are lit according to priority, with red being
the highest and green the lowest priority. For example, if on one panel there is an
indication that requires the green LED to be lit, and on another panel there is an indication
that requires the red LED to be lit, the red LED takes priority and is lit. The LEDs can be
configured with PCM600 and the operation mode can be selected with the LHMI or
PCM600.
Information panels for the indication LEDs are shown by pressing the Multipage button.
Pressing that button cycles through the three pages. A lit or un-acknowledged LED is
indicated with a highlight. Such lines can be selected by using the Up/Down arrow
buttons. Pressing the Enter key shows details about the selected LED. Pressing the ESC
button exits from information pop-ups as well as from the LED panel as such.
The Multipage button has a LED. This LED is lit whenever any LED on any panel is lit.
If there are un-acknowledged indication LEDs, then the Multipage LED blinks. To
acknowledge LEDs, press the Clear button to enter the Reset menu (refer to description of
this menu for details).
There are two additional LEDs which are next to the control buttons and . They
can, for example, represent the status of a circuit breaker. The LEDs are controlled by the
function block OPENCLOSE_LED which must be configured to show the status of the
breaker.
5.5.2.1 Functionality
Each indication LED on local HMI can be set individually to operate in 6 different
sequences; two as follow type and four as latch type. Two of the latching sequence types
are intended to be used as a protection indication system, either in collecting or restarting
mode, with reset functionality. The other two are intended to be used as signalling system
in collecting mode with acknowledgment functionality.
There are three status LEDs above the LCD in front of the IED: green, yellow and red.
The green LED has a fixed function that presents the healthy status of the IED. The yellow
and red LEDs are user configured. The yellow LED can be used to indicate that a
disturbance report is triggered (steady) or that the IED is in test mode (flashing). The red
LED can be used to indicate a trip command.
The yellow and red status LEDs are configured in the disturbance recorder function,
DRPRDRE, by connecting a pickup or trip signal from the actual function to a BxRBDR
binary input function block using the PCM600, and configuring the setting to Off,Pickup
or Trip for that particular signal.
Operating modes
Collecting mode
• LEDs that are used in the collecting mode of operation are accumulated continuously
until the unit is acknowledged manually. This mode is suitable when the LEDs are
used as a simplified alarm system. When all three inputs (red, yellow and green) are
connected to different sources of events for the same function block, collecting mode
shows the highest priority LED color that was activated since the latest
acknowledgment was made. If a number of different indications were made since the
latest acknowledgment, it is not possible to get a clear view of what triggered the
latest event without looking at the sequence of events list. A condition for getting the
sequence of events is that the signals have been engineered in the disturbance
recorder.
Re-starting mode
• In the re-starting mode of operation each new pickup resets all previous active LEDs
and activates only those which appear during one disturbance. Only LEDs defined for
re-starting mode with the latched sequence type 6 (LatchedReset-S) will initiate a
reset and a restart at a new disturbance. A disturbance is defined to end a settable time
after the reset of the activated input signals or when the maximum time limit has
elapsed. In sequence 6, the restarting or reset mode means that upon occurrence of
any new event, all previous indications will be reset. This facilitates that only the LED
indications related to the latest event is shown.
Acknowledgment/reset
• From local HMI
• The active LED indications can be acknowledged/reset manually. Manual
acknowledgment and manual reset have the same meaning and is a common
signal for all the operating sequences and LEDs. The function is positive edge
triggered, not level triggered. The acknowledgment/reset is performed via the
button and menus on the LHMI.
• Automatic reset
• The automatic reset can only be performed for LED indications defined for re-
starting mode with the latched sequence type 6 (LatchedReset-S). When the
automatic reset of the LEDs has been performed, still persisting indications will
be indicated with a steady light.
Operating sequence
The sequences can be of type Follow or Latched. For the Follow type, the LED follows the
input signal completely. For the Latched type, each LED latches to the corresponding
input signal until it is reset.
The figures below show the function of available sequences selectable for each LED
separately. The following 6 sequences are available:
• Sequence 1: Follow-S
• Sequence 2: Follow-F
• Sequence 3: LatchedAck-F-S
• Sequence 4: LatchedAck-S-F
• Sequence 5: LatchedColl-S
• Sequence 6: LatchedReset-S
For sequence 1 and 2, which are of the Follow type, the acknowledgment (Ack ) /reset
function is not applicable because the indication shown by the LED follows its input
signal. Sequence 3 and 4, which are of the Latched type with acknowledgement, are only
working in collecting (Coll) mode. Sequence 5 is working according to Latched type and
collecting mode while Sequence 6 is working according to Latched type and re-starting
(Reset) mode. The letters S and F in the sequence names have the meaning S = Steady and
F = Flash.
At the activation of the input signal to any LED, the indication on the corresponding LED
obtains a color that corresponds to the activated input, and operates according to the
selected sequence diagrams shown below.
In the sequence diagrams the different statuses of the LEDs are shown using the following
symbols:
Sequence 1 (Follow-S)
This sequence follows the corresponding input signals all the time with a steady light. It
does not react on acknowledgment or reset. Every LED is independent of the other LEDs
in its operation.

showing steady light.
Sequence 3 LatchedAck-F-S
This sequence has a latched function and works in collecting mode. Every LED is
independent of the other LEDs in its operation. At the activation of the input signal, the
indication starts flashing. After acknowledgment the indication disappears if the signal is
not present any more. If the signal is still present after acknowledgment it gets a steady
light.

When an acknowledgment is performed, all indications that appear before the indication
with higher priority has been reset, will be acknowledged, independent of if the low
priority indication appeared before or after acknowledgment. In Figure 17 it is shown the
sequence when a signal of lower priority becomes activated after acknowledgment has
been performed on a higher priority signal. The low priority signal will be shown as

Sequence 5 LatchedColl-S
This sequence has a latched function and works in collecting mode. At the activation of
the input signal, the indication will light up with a steady light. The difference to sequence
3 and 4 is that indications that are still activated will not be affected by the reset that is,
immediately after the positive edge of the reset has been executed a new reading and
storing of active signals is performed. Every LED is independent of the other LEDs in its
operation.

not be affected by manual reset, that is, immediately after the positive edge of that the

5.5.3.1 Functionality
Local Human-Machine-Interface (LHMI) has five function buttons, directly to the left of
the LCD, that can be configured either as menu shortcut or control buttons. Each button
has an indication LED that can be configured in the application configuration.
When used as a menu shortcut, a function button provides a fast way to navigate between
default nodes in the menu tree. When used as a control, the button can control a binary
signal.
Each output on the FNKEYMD1 - FNKEYMD5 function blocks can be controlled from
the LHMI function keys. By pressing a function button on the LHMI, the output status of
the actual function block will change. These binary outputs can in turn be used to control
other function blocks, for example, switch control blocks, binary I/O outputs etc.
FNKEYMD1 - FNKEYMD5 function block also has a number of settings and parameters
that control the behavior of the function block. These settings and parameters are normally
set using the PST.
Operating sequence
The operation mode is set individually for each output, either OFF, TOGGLE or
PULSED.
Setting OFF
Input value
Output value
IEC09000330-2-en.vsd
IEC09000330 V2 EN
Setting TOGGLE
In this mode the output toggles each time the function key has been pressed for more than
500ms. Note that the input attribute is reset each time the function block executes. The
function block execution is marked with a dotted line below.
Input value

Setting PULSED
In this mode the output sets high (1) when the function key has been pressed for more than
500ms and remains high according to set pulse time. After this time the output will go back
to 0. The input attribute is reset when the function block detects it being high and there is
no output pulse.
Note that the third positive edge on the input attribute does not cause a pulse, since the
edge was applied during pulse output. A new pulse can only begin when the output is zero;
else the trigger edge is lost.

Input function
All function keys work the same way: When the LHMI is configured so that a certain
function button is of type CONTROL, then the corresponding input on this function block
becomes active, and will light the yellow function button LED when high. This
functionality is active even if the function block operation setting is set to off. It has been
implemented this way for safety reasons; the idea is that the function key LEDs should
always reflect the actual status of any primary equipment monitored by these LEDs.

6.1.1.1 Functionality
IED is designed for the selective, reliable and fast differential protection of busbars, T-
connections and meshed corners. IED can be used for different switchgear layouts,
including single and double busbar with or without transfer bus, double circuit breaker or
breaker-and-a-half stations. The IED is applicable for the protection of medium voltage
(MV), high voltage (HV) and extra high voltage (EHV) installations at a power system
frequency of 50Hz or 60Hz. The IED can detect all types of internal phase-to-phase and
phase-to-ground faults in solidly grounded or low impedance grounded power systems, as
well as all internal multi-phase faults in isolated or high-impedance grounded power
systems.
Available versions
The following versions of the IED are available:
It is also important to understand that all function blocks described in the next sections,
except the Switch Status function block, are not independent from each other. Hidden
connections are pre-made in the software in order to simplify the required engineering
work in PCM600 for the end user.

2. Zone B (functionality wise completely identical to the Zone A)
3. Check Zone
system networks with high fault levels or where fast fault clearance is required for power
system stability. The advanced open CT detection algorithm detects instantly the open CT
secondary circuits and prevents differential protection operation without any need for
additional check zone.

Where:

Id Id represents the RMS value of the differential current of the differential protection zone
s = 0.53 the operating slope for the differential function is fixed to 0.53 in the algorithm and can not be
changed by the user
The innovative measuring algorithm provides stability for open or short-circuited main
CT secondary circuits, which means that no separate check zone is actually necessary.
Pick-up current for open CT detection can usually be set to detect the open circuit
condition for the smallest CT. This built-in feature allows the protection terminal to be set
very sensitive, even to a lower value than the maximum CT primary rating in the station.
At detection of problems in CT secondary circuits, the differential protection can be
instantly blocked and an alarm is given. Alternatively, the differential protection can be
automatically desensitized in order to ensure busbar differential protection stability
during normal through-load condition. When problems in CT secondary circuits have
been found and associated error has been corrected a manual reset must be given to the
IED. This can be done locally from the local HMI, or remotely via binary input or
communication link.
However, it is to be noted that this feature can only be partly utilized when the summation
principle is in use.
Dual monitoring of differential protection status is available. The first monitoring feature
operates after settable time delay when differential current is higher than the user settable
pickup. This feature can be, for example, used to design automatic reset logic for
previously described open CT detection feature. The second monitoring feature operates
immediately when the busbar through-going current is bigger than the user settable level.
Both of these monitoring features are phase segregated and they give out binary signals,
which can be either used to trigger disturbance recorder or for alarming purposes.

6.1.4.6 Settings
All general settings for Busbar differential protection are only relevant for proper event
reporting via IEC 61850-8-1. They are not important for proper operation of Busbar
differential protection.
Note that all settings for busbar protection under relevant parameter setting group are
directly related to proper operation of the Busbar differential protection.
6.1.5.1 General
The calculation of relevant quantities from the CT input values are performed by the IED
and passed to the Busbar differential protection and open CT algorithm for further
processing.
These calculations are completely phase-segregated. Therefore, they can be explained for
one phase only. Calculations for other two phases are done in exactly the same way.
The instantaneous differential current is calculated as absolute value of the sum of all
currents connected to the protection zone:
id = å ij
j=1
EQUATION1141 V1 EN (Equation 1)
Where:
id instantaneous differential current (calculated from raw samples)
The sum of all latest current samples with positive value is made:
SP = å ij
j= 1
EQUATION1143 V1 EN (Equation 2)
Where:
M number of bays with positive value of the latest current sample (M<N)
as well as the absolute value of the sum of all latest negative current samples:
SN = å ij
j = M+1
EQUATION1142 V1 EN (Equation 3)
Now the instantaneous incoming and outgoing currents are calculated as follows:
All these quantities are calculated for every set of samples (that is, 20 times in one power
system cycle in the IED). It is to be noted that all three quantities (that is, iin, iout & id) will
be of a “DC” nature in time (that is, these quantities can only be positive). This means that
the instantaneous incoming current during normal load condition looks like as the output
of the full wave rectifier. Note that iin is always bigger than or equal to iout.
Figure 32 shows the comparison between above calculated quantities and REB103 (or
RADSS) design:

REB103 (or RADSS) analog design
Where:
iout instantaneous outgoing current from the zone of protection (calculated from raw samples)
iin instantaneous incoming current into the zone of protection (calculated from raw samples)
This means that any differential protection zone in the IED can be represented as shown
in figure 33, regardless the number of the connected feeders.
id
en04000229.vsd
IEC04000229 V1 EN
The instantaneous quantities are constantly changing in time, therefore, RMS values of
the incoming, outgoing and differential currents (that is, Iin, Iout and Id respectively) are
used in the algorithm. These quantities are calculated over last power system cycle (that is,
16.66ms long, moving window for 60Hz system). The only requirement for this type of
calculation is that the last twenty samples of the instantaneous quantity must be stored in
the IED internal memory. The calculated values of Iin and Id are available as service
values on local HMI.
When all six values (that is, iin, iout, id, Iin, Iout and Id) are calculated, they are passed
further to the general differential protection function and open CT algorithm for further
processing to the differential and open CT algorithms.
CT saturation
Differential relays do not measure directly the primary currents in the high voltage
conductors, but the secondary currents of magnetic core current transformers, which are
installed in all high-voltage bays. Because the current transformer is a non-linear
measuring device, under high current conditions in the primary CT circuit, the secondary
CT current can be drastically different from the original primary current. This is caused by
CT saturation, a phenomenon that is well known to protection engineers. This
phenomenon is especially relevant for bus differential protection applications, because it
has the tendency to cause unwanted operation of the differential relay.
Another difficulty is the large number of main CTs (that is, up to 24x3 for REB670 single
phase and up to 8x3 CTs for REB670 three phase version) which can be connected to the
differential IED. If the CT saturation has to be checked and preventive measures taken for
every HV CT connected to the protection zone on one-by-one basis, the differential relay
algorithm would be slow and quite complex. Therefore, only the properties of incoming,
outgoing and differential currents are used in order to cope with CT saturation of any main
CT connected to the IED as shown in figure 34.

This CT saturation compensation logic effectively suppresses the false differential current
by looking into properties of the six input quantities. Output of the logic is modified RMS
value of the differential current Id_mod, which has quite small value during external faults
followed by CT saturation or full Id value in case of an internal fault.
This logic incorporate a memory feature as well in order to cope with full CT remanence
in the faulty overhead line bay in case of a high speed autoreclosing onto permanent fault.
By this approach a new, patented differential algorithm has been formed, which is
completely stable for all external faults and operates very fast in case of an internal fault.
All problems caused by the non-linearity of the CTs are solved in an innovative numerical
way on the basic principles described above.
Tripping criteria
To provide reliable but fast differential protection, a multiple tripping criterion is
implemented in the general differential protection function.
These tripping conditions are then arranged in an AND gate in order to provide final trip
signal to the binary output contacts of the terminal.
The trip from differential zone can be either latched or self rest in accordance with end user
settings (note that this is not applied to the trip of each phase from differential zone).
Figure 35 shows the simplified internal trip logic for the busbar protection.

The three input quantities into the open CT detection algorithm are:
It is to be noted that the open CT detection algorithm does not know the number of
connected CT inputs into the IED.
Fast operating open CT detection logic instantly detects the moment when a healthy CT
secondary circuit carrying the load current is accidently opened (that is, current
interrupted to the differential relay). The logic is based on the perception that the total
busbar through-load current is the same before and after that CT is open circuited.
In order to prevent false operation of this logic in case of a fault or disturbance in the power
system, the total through-load current must not have big changes three seconds before the
open CT condition is detected.
When one CT secondary circuit is open circuited during normal through-load condition
one measuring point is lost and, therefore, the following should hold true:
When all above conditions are simultaneously detected open CT condition is declared, the
trip output of the affected phase is blocked and alarm output is set
It is to be noted that this logic can only detect an instant of time when an already connected
CT with the secondary load current is open circuited. This logic do not detect, for example,
the situation when a new bay is connected to the differential zone, but its CT secondary
circuits are short circuited or open circuited.
Slow operating open CT detection logic will detect most abnormalities in the CT
secondary circuits or in the Zone Selection logic, but with the time delay determined by
setting parameter tSlowOCT. The logic is based on the perception that the values of Iin and
Iout shall be equal during normal through-load situation.
• there was not any big through-load current change during last five seconds
• value of Iin is much bigger than value of Iout (0.9·Iin > Iout)
• Id > OCTOperLevel
When these conditions are fulfilled for longer than time defined by the tSlowOCT
parameter, the open CT condition is declared.

6.1.6.1 Functionality
For busbar protection in double busbar stations when dynamic zone selection is needed,
it is sometimes required to include the overall differential zone (that is, check zone).
Hence, the built-in, overall check zone is available in the IED. Because the built-in check
zone current measurement is not dependent on the disconnector status, this feature ensures
stability of Busbar differential protection even for completely wrong status indication
from the busbar disconnectors. It is to be noted that the overall check zone, only supervise
the usual differential protection operation. The external trip commands, breaker failure
backup-trip commands and sensitive differential protection operation are not supervised
by the overall check zone.
The overall check zone has simple current operating algorithm, which ensures check zone
operation for all internal faults regardless the fault current distribution. To achieve this,
the outgoing current from the overall check zone is used as restraint quantity. If required,
the check zone operation can be activated externally by a binary signal.

operational differential protection scheme for multi-zone applications on both small and
large buses.
Flexible, software based dynamic Zone Selection enables easy and fast adaptation to the
most common substation arrangements such as single busbar with or without transfer bus,
double busbar with or without transfer bus, one-and-a-half breakerbreaker-and-a-half
stations, double busbar-double breaker stations, ring busbars and so on. The software
based dynamic Zone Selections ensures:
Zone Selection logic accompanied by optionally available end-fault and/or circuit breaker
failure protections ensure minimum possible tripping time and selectivity for faults within
the blind spot or the end zone between main CT and affiliated circuit breaker. Therefore,
the IED offers best possible coverage for such faults in feeder and bus-section/bus-coupler
bays.
6.1.8.1 Functionality
For stations with complex primary layout (that is, double busbar single breaker station
with or without transfer bus) the information about busbar disconnector position in every
bay is crucial information for busbar protection. The positions of these disconnectors then
actually determine which CT input (that is, bay) is connected to which differential
protection zone. For some more advanced features like end-fault or blind-spot protection
the actual status of the circuit breaker in some or even all bays can be vital information for
busbar protection as well. The switch function block is used to take the status of two
auxiliary contacts from the primary device, evaluate them and then to deliver the device
primary contact position to the rest of the zone selection logic.
For such applications typically two auxiliary contacts (that is, normally open and normally
closed auxiliary contacts) from each relevant primary switching object shall be connected
to the IED. Then the status for every individual primary switching object will be
determined. The dedicated function block for each primary switching object is available
in order to determine the status of the object primary contacts. By a parameter setting one
of the following two logical schemes can be selected for each primary object individually
by the end user:
• Open or closed only when clearly indicated by aux contact status (that is, as in INX
schemes)
Note that the first scheme only requires fast breaking normally closed auxiliary contact
(that is, b contact) for proper operation. The timing of normally open auxiliary contact is
not critical because it is only used for supervision of the primary object status. The second
scheme in addition requires properly timed-adjusted, early-making normally open
auxiliary contact (that is, early making a contact) for proper operation.
It is to be noted that it is as well possible to use only normally closed auxiliary contacts for
Zone Selection logic. In that case the Switch function blocks are not used.
Inputs
• DISABLE, when this binary input has logical value zero function works in
accordance with the selected scheme (see setting OperMode). When this binary input
has logical value one, OPEN and CLOSED outputs from the function are
unconditionally set to logical value zero. All other outputs work as usual.
• NO, to this binary input normally open (that is, ”closed” or “a” contact) of the primary
switching object shall be connected
• NC, to this binary input normally closed (that is, ”OPEN” or “b” contact) of the
primary switching object shall be connected.
Outputs
• CLOSED, this binary output has logical value one when the internal logic determines
that the primary object is closed (for more information about available logical
schemes, refer to table 70)
• OPEN, this binary output has logical value one when the internal logic determines
that the primary object is open (for more info about available logical schemes, refer
to table 70)
• ALARM, this binary output has logical value one when pre-set timer set under setting
tAlarm expires and the auxiliary contacts still have illegal status (that is, 00 or 11)
• FORCED, this binary output has logical value zero when the object status is forced
via parameter setting OperMode
Settings
• OperMode, this setting determines the operating logic used within the function block.
One of the following five alternatives shall be selected for every function block
1. Off, when this mode is selected the entire function block is switched off (that is,
de-activated)
2. Scheme1_RADSS, when this mode is selected the internal logic behaves as
described in table 70/row 3. Note that this logical scheme has the minimal
requirements regarding the auxiliary contacts timing. It is recommended
scheme to be used, especially to determine the circuit breaker status
3. Scheme2_INX, when this mode is selected the internal logic behaves as
described in table 70/row 4. Note that this logical scheme has increased
requirements regarding the auxiliary contacts timing, especially for normally
open (that is, a contact), as explained intable 70.
4. ForceOpen, when this mode is selected the internal logic consider the primary
object as open regardless the status of the auxiliary contacts. However, note that
ALARM output will still work as usual and that FORCED binary output will be
unconditionally set to one
5. ForceClosed, when this mode is selected the internal logic consider the primary
object as closed regardless the actual status of the auxiliary contacts. However,
note that ALARM output will still work as usual and that FORCED binary
output will be unconditionally set to one
• tAlarm, this delay on pickup timer is used in order to give an alarm output when illegal
status of auxiliary input contacts (that is, 00 or 11) is given to the function. Timer can
be set from 0.00s to 6000.00s in step of 0.01s. Default value is 15.00s.

6.1.9.1 Functionality
Each CT input is allocated to one dedicated bay function block. This function block is used
to provide complete user interface for all signals from and towards this bay. It is also used
to influence bay measured current.
In order to guarantee proper operation of the IED, the first instance of Bay
function block must always be used in the configuration.
At the same time, an additional feature for instantaneous or time delayed disconnection or
even inversion of the connected bay current via separate logical signals is also available.
This feature is provided in order to facilitate for bus-section or bus-coupler CT
disconnection for tie-breakers with a CT only on one side of the circuit breaker. This
ensures correct and fast fault clearance of faults between the CT and the circuit breaker
within these bays. The same feature can be individually used in any feeder bay to optimize
Busbar differential protection performance, when feeder circuit breaker is open. Thus, the
end-fault protection for faults between circuit breaker and the CT is available. However,
to use this feature circuit breaker auxiliary contacts and closing command to the circuit
breaker shall be wired to the binary inputs of the IED. Therefore, he IED offers best
possible coverage for these special faults between CT and circuit breaker in feeder and
bus-section/bus-coupler bays.
Within the Bay function block it is decided by a parameter setting how this bay should
behave during zone interconnection (that is, load transfer). For each bay individually one
of the following three options can be selected:
• Bay current is forced out from both zones during zone interconnection (used for bus-
coupler bays)
• Bay current is unconditionally forced into both zones during zone interconnection
(used in special applications)
• Bay current is connected to both zones during zone interconnection if the bay was
previously connected to one of the two zones (typically used for feeder bays)
The third option ensures that the feeder, which is out of service, is not connected to any of
the two zones during zone interconnection.
Within the Bay function block it is decided by a parameter setting whether this bay should
be connected to the check zone or not. In this way the end user has simple control over the
bays, which shall be connected to the overall check zone.
By appropriate configuration logic it is possible to take any bay (that is, CT input) out of
service. This can be done from the local HMI or externally via binary signal. In that case
all internal current measuring functions (that is, differential protection, sensitive
differential protection, check zone, breaker failure protection and overcurrent protection)
are disabled. At the same time, any trip command to this bay circuit breaker can be
inhibited.
• Trip only the bay circuit breaker (used for integrated OC protection tripping)
• Trip the whole differential zone to which this bay is presently connected (used for
backup-trip command from either integrated or external bay circuit breaker failure
protection)
Finally dedicated trip binary output from the Bay function block is available in order to
provide common trip signal to the bay circuit breaker from busbar differential protection,
breaker failure protection, backup overcurrent protection and so on.
In this way the interface to the user is kept as simple as possible and IED engineering work
is quite straight forward.
Inputs
• I3PB1, 3ph CT input; applicable for 3-phase version of the terminal
• ISI1, 1ph CT input; applicable for 1-phase version of the terminal
• BLKTR, when this binary input has logical value one all trip commands from the bay
function block are prevented including busbar protection, breaker failure and external
trip commands
• CTRLZA, this binary input is used to control the bay CT connection to the differential
zone A. Note that the status of this binary input is considered ONLY if the value of
setting parameter ZoneSel is either
• CtrlIncludes when logical value one of this input will include current to zone A,
or
• CtrlExcludes when logical value zero of this input will include current to zone
A
• CTRLZB, this binary input is used to control the bay CT connection to the differential
zone B. Note that the status of this binary input is considered ONLY if the value of
setting parameter ZoneSel is either
• CtrlIncludes when logical value one of this input will include current to zone B,
or
• CtrlExcludes when logical value zero of this input will include current to zone
B
• ZEROCUR, when this binary input has logical value one the bay CT current is
unconditionally forced to zero (that is, internally multiplied with zero) after the
internal delay on pickup timer has expired. The time delay is determined by setting
parameter tZeroCurrent. Note that the zero current value will be given to all
differential zones, including the check zone, to which this bay is currently connected
• INVCUR, when this binary input has logical value one the bay CT current will be
inverted (that is, internally multiplied with –1) after the internal delay on pickup timer
has expired. The time delay is determined by setting parameter tInvertCurrent. Note
that the inverted current value will be given to all differential zones, including the
check zone, to which this bay is currently connected. However, it shall be noted that
the INVCUR input has lower priority than the ZEROCUR input. This means that,
when both of them simultaneously have logical value one, and both timers have
expired, the bay CT current will be forced to zero.
• TRZONE, when this binary input has logical value one the trip signal will be sent to
the differential zone to which this bay is currently connected. As a consequence all
bays connected to that zone will receive the trip signal. To this input the breaker
failure protection backup trip command for this bay is typically connected. This will
insure that all breakers connected to the same zone with the failed breaker will be
tripped. Note that this tripping is not supervised by the Check Zone operation, in
application where Check Zone is enabled.
• TRBAY, when this binary input has logical value one the output TRIP signal from the
same function block will be activated. In this way only the bay circuit breaker is
tripped. No any other breaker in the station will receive this trip command. This input
is used to give backup overcurrent trip command to the bay CB.
Outputs
• TRIP, this binary output shall be used as dedicated three-pole trip command to the bay
circuit breaker. It will be activated when the differential zone, to which this bay is
currently connected, operates for internal fault, or in case of breaker failure in some
other bay connected to the same zone (see description for input TRZONE). It operates
when external trip signal is given to this bay (see description for input TRBAY).
• CONNZA, this binary output has logical value one whenever this bay CT is
connected to zone A
• CONNZB, this binary output has logical value one whenever this bay CT is
connected to zone B
• CONNBAY, this is not a binary output. It has 9 defined states (Enumerators) and is
used to display actual "BayConnections" information on the LHMI.
Settings
• CTConnection, this setting determines how the hardware CT input is connected to
bay function block in software. One of the following three alternatives shall be
selected for every function block:
1. NotConnected, when this mode is selected the hardware CT input is
disconnected from the bay function block in software. This setting shall be used
for spare CT inputs in the IED or for a CT inputs where only for example,
breaker failure protection is required (that is, for middle breaker in breaker-and-
a-half configuration)
2. Connected, when this mode is selected the hardware CT input is connected to
the bay function block in software. This is normal setting for a CT input which
is used for busbar protection
3. Conn Inverted, when this mode is selected the hardware CT input is connected
to the bay function block in software, but the CT current is inverted (that is,
multiplied with –1). This is used only in special applications.
• ZoneSel, this setting determines how the bay CT input connection to the differential
zones is controlled within the IED internal logic. One of the five alternatives listed
below shall be selected for every function block. CtrlIncludes and CtrlExcludes are
typically used for feeder bays in double busbar-single breaker stations where
dynamic connections between CT and differential zones are required. It shall be
noted that when one of the last two modes are selected and in the same time the
operation of the Zone Interconnection function block is set to "On" the zone
interconnection (that is, merging between ZA & ZB) will be automatically started as
soon as the bay is connected to both zones simultaneously (that is, zone
interconnection on a feeder bay).
1. FixedToZA, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is always connected
to the differential zone A. This is for example used for simple busbar
configurations where dynamic connections between CTs and differential zones
are not required (that is, single zone, double bus-double breaker or breaker-and-
a-half stations)
2. FixedToZB, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is always connected
to the differential zone B. This is for example used for simple busbar
configurations where dynamic connections between CTs and differential zones
are not required (that is, double bus-double breaker or breaker-and-a-half
stations)
3. FixedToZA&-ZB, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is always
connected to the differential zone A and its inverted value to the differential
zone B. This is for example used for bus-tie bays with just one set of main CT.
In this way the same current is easily given to both differential zones. It shall be
noted that the CT staring shall be set with respect to zone A.
4. CtrlIncludes, when this mode is selected the bay CT input will be: connected
to zone A when binary input CTRLZA into the function block have logical
value one connected to zone B when binary input CTRLZB into the function
block have logical value one
5. CtrlExcludes, when this mode is selected the bay CT input will be: connected
to zone A when binary input CTRLZA into the function block have logical
value zero connected to zone B when binary input CTRLZB into the function
block have logical value zero
• ZoneSwitching, this setting determines how the bay CT shall behave when zone
interconnection is active (that is, merging between ZA & ZB). One of the following
three alternatives shall be selected for every function block:
1. ForceOut, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is unconditionally
disconnected from both differential zones when zone interconnection feature is
active. This setting is typically used for bus-coupler bay in double busbar
stations.
2. ForceIn, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is unconditionally
connected to both differential zones when zone interconnection feature is
active.
3. Conditionally, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is connected to both
differential zones when zone interconnection feature is active if it was
previously connected to at least one of them. This setting is typically used for
feeder bays in double busbar-single breaker stations, and for all spare/future
bays.
• CheckZoneSel, this setting determines the bay CT input connection towards the check
zone. One of the following two alternatives shall be selected for every function block:
1. NotConnected, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is not connected to
the overall check zone. This setting is typically used for bus-coupler bay in
double busbar-single breaker stations.
2. Connected, when this mode is selected the bay CT input is connected to the
overall check zone. This setting is typically used for feeder bays in double
busbar-single breaker stations.
• tTripPulse, this pulse timer is used in order to guaranty minimum trip pulse duration
from the bay function block. Pulse time can be set from 0.000s to 60.000s in step of
0.001s. Default value is 0.200s.
• tZeroCurrent, this delay on pickup timer is used in order to unconditionally force bay
current to zero when ZEROCUR input into the function block has logical value one.
Time delay can be set from 0.000s to 60.000s in step of 0.001s. Default value is
0.200s.
• tInvertCurrent, this delay on pickup timer is used in order to invert bay current when
INVCUR input into the function block has logical value one. Time delay can be set
from 0.000s to 60.000s in step of 0.001s. Default value is 0.200s.

In order to have properly balanced differential function for the station busbar disconnector
switching arrangements, it is important to properly configure the zone selection data for
every connected current transformer. Due to this configuration parameter, the IED allows
an effective application for stations where the zone selection (that is, CT switching) is
required. This is possible due to the software facility to have full and easy control over all
CT inputs connected to the terminal. The philosophy is to allow every CT input to be
individually controlled by a setting parameter.
The setting parameters for the differential protection function (DFB) are set via the local
HMI or PCM600. See the technical reference manual for setting parameters and path in
local HMI.
When the last two options are used the CT input can be dynamically included or excluded
from the differential zone by simply controlling the dedicated inputs of the Bay function
block.

6.1.10.1 Functionality
When this feature is activated the two integrated differential protection zones are merged
into one common, overall differential zone. This feature is required in double busbar
stations when in any of the feeder bays both busbar disconnectors are closed at the same
time (that is, load transfer). As explained in above section Bay each CT input will then
behave in the pre-set way in order to ensure proper current balancing during this special
condition. This feature can be started automatically (when Zone Selection logic
determines that both busbar disconnectors in one feeder bay are closed at the same time)
or externally via dedicated binary signal. If this feature is active for longer time than the
pre-set vale the alarm signal is given.
Inputs
• EXTSTART, when this binary input has logical value one the zone interconnection
feature will be activated if it is enabled by the setting parameter Operation
• SUMB1B2, this binary input is used for quite special feature which enables the user
to internally sum Bay 01 and Bay 02 currents while the zone interconnection is active
• SUMB3B4, this binary input is used for quite special feature which enables the user
to internally sum Bay 03 and Bay 04 currents while the zone interconnection is active
• SUMB5B6, this binary input is used for quite special feature which enables the user
to internally sum Bay 05 and Bay 06 currents while the zone interconnection is active.
It shall be noted that this input is only available in 1-phase version of REB670.
Outputs
• ACTIVE, this binary output has logical value one while zone interconnection feature
is active in the IED
• ALARM, this binary output has logical value one, if the zone interconnection feature
is active longer than the time set under setting parameter tAlarm
Settings
• Operation, this setting is used to enable/disable zone interconnection feature.
• tAlarm, this delay on pickup timer is used in order to give an alarm output when zone
interconnection feature is active for too long time. Timer can be set from 0.00s to
6000.00s in step of 0.01s. Default value is 300.00s.
Zone interconnection can be activated by external signal or by internal logic inside the
IED, when a bay is connected to both zones, it means that zone interconnection can be
activated by any particular bay. When the binary output signal ACTIVE is activated, each
CT will individually be include or exclude to the both zones depending on status of
ZoneSwitching setting.

A common setting for all steps, NumPhSel, is used to specify the number of phase currents
to be high to enable operation. The settings can be chosen: 1 out of 3, 2 out of 3 or 3 out
of 3.
The sampled analog phase currents are processed in a pre-processing function block.
Using a parameter setting MeasType within the general settings for the four step phase
overcurrent protection 1 and 3-phase output function OC4PTOC (51/67), it is possible to
select the type of the measurement used for all overcurrent stages. It is possible to select
either discrete Fourier filter (DFT) or true RMS filter (RMS).
If DFT option is selected then only the RMS value of the fundamental frequency
components of each phase current is derived. Influence of DC current component and
higher harmonic current components are almost completely suppressed. If RMS option is
selected then the true RMS values is used. The true RMS value in addition to the
fundamental frequency component includes the contribution from the current DC
component as well as from higher current harmonic. The selected current values are fed
to OC4PTOC (51/67).
In a comparator, the DFT or RMS values are compared to the set operation current value
of the function (Pickup1, Pickup2, Pickup3, Pickup4) for each phase current. If a phase
current is larger than the set operation current, outputs PICKUP, PU_STx, PU_A, PU_B
and PU_C are activated without delay. Output signals PU_A, PU_B and PU_C are
common for all steps. This means that the lowest set step will initiate the activation. The
PICKUP signal is common for all three phases and all steps. It shall be noted that the
selection of measured value (DFT or RMS) do not influence the operation of directional
part of OC4PTOC (51/67) .
Service value for individually measured phase currents are also available on the local HMI
for OC4PTOC (51/67) function, which simplifies testing, commissioning and in service
operational checking of the function.
A harmonic restrain of the function can be chosen. A set 2nd harmonic current in relation
to the fundamental current is used. The 2nd harmonic current is taken from the pre-
processing of the phase currents and the relation is compared to a set restrain current level.
The function can be directional. The direction of the fault current is given as current angle
in relation to the voltage angle. The fault current and fault voltage for the directional
function is dependent of the fault type. To enable directional measurement at close in
faults, causing low measured voltage, the polarization voltage is a combination of the
apparent voltage (85%) and a memory voltage (15%). The following combinations are
used.
Vref _ AB = VA - VB I dir _ AB = I A - I B
GUID-4F361BC7-6D91-47B5-8119-A27009C0AD6A V1 EN (Equation 4)

ANSIEQUATION1454 V1 EN (Equation 9)
For close-in three-phase faults, the V1AM memory voltage, based on the same positive
sequence voltage, ensures correct directional discrimination.
The memory voltage is used for 100 ms or until the positive sequence voltage is restored.
• If the current is still above the set value of the minimum operating current (between
10 and 30% of the set terminal rated current IBase), the condition seals in.
• If the fault has caused tripping, the trip endures.
• If the fault was detected in the reverse direction, the measuring element in the
reverse direction remains in operation.
• If the current decreases below the minimum operating value, the memory resets until
the positive sequence voltage exceeds 10% of its rated value.
The directional setting is given as a characteristic angle AngleRCA for the function and an
angle window ROADir.

The default value of AngleRCA is –65°. The parameters AngleROA gives the angle sector
from AngleRCA for directional borders.
A minimum current for directional phase pickup current signal can be set.
PUMinOpPhSel is the pickup level for directional evaluation of IA, IB and IC. The
directional signals release the overcurrent measurement in respective phases if their
current amplitudes are higher than the pickup level (PUMinOpPhSel) and the direction of
the current is according to the set direction of the step.
If no blockings are given, the pickup signals will start the timers of the step. The time
characteristic for each step can be chosen as definite time delay or inverse time
characteristic. A wide range of standardized inverse time characteristics is available.It is
also possible to create a tailor made time characteristic.
The possibilities for inverse time characteristics are described in section "Inverse
characteristics".
All four steps in OC4PTOC (51/67) can be blocked from the binary input BLOCK. The
binary input BLKx (x=1, 2, 3 or 4) blocks the operation of respective step.

The sampled analog phase currents are pre-processed in a discrete Fourier filter (DFT)
block. The RMS value of the phase current is derived. The phase current value is fed to the
PH4SPTOC (51) function. In a comparator the RMS value is compared to the set
operation current value of the function (Pickup1, Pickup2, Pickup3, Pickup4). If the phase
current is larger than the set operation current a signal from the comparator is set to true.
This signal will, without delay, activate the output signal Pickup for this step and a
common Pickup signal.
A harmonic restrain of the function can be chosen. A set 2nd harmonic current in relation
to the fundamental current is used. The 2nd harmonic current is taken from the pre-
processing of the phase current and compared to a set restrain current level.
If no blockings are given the pickup signals will start the timers of the step. The time

1. I3P, input used for “Operating Quantity”. Supply the zero-sequence magnitude
measuring functionality.
2. V3P, input used for “Voltage Polarizing Quantity”. Supply either zero or negative
sequence voltage to the directional functionality
3. I3PPOL, input used for “Current Polarizing Quantity”. Provide polarizing current to
the directional functionality. This current is normally taken from the grounding of a
power transformer.
4. I3PDIR, input used for “Directional detection”. Supply either zero or negative
sequence current to the directional functionality.
These inputs are connected from the corresponding pre-processing function blocks in the
Configuration Tool within PCM600.
The function always uses Residual Current (3I0) for its operating quantity. The residual
current can be:
I op = 3 × Io = IA + IB + IC
EQUATION2011-ANSI V1 EN (Equation 10)
where:
IA, IB, IC are fundamental frequency phasors of three individual phase currents.
The residual current is pre-processed by a discrete Fourier filter. Thus the phasor of the
fundamental frequency component of the residual current is derived. The phasor
magnitude is used within the EF4PTOC (51N/67N) protection to compare it with the set
operation current value of the four steps (Pickup1, Pickup2, Pickup3 or Pickup4). If the
residual current is larger than the set operation current and the step is used in non-
directional mode a signal from the comparator for this step is set to true. This signal will,
without delay, activate the output signal PUSTx (x=step 1-4) for this step and a common
PICKUP signal.
A polarizing quantity is used within the protection in order to determine the direction to
the ground fault (Forward/Reverse).
The function can be set to use voltage polarizing, current polarizing or dual polarizing.
Voltage polarizing
When voltage polarizing is selected the protection will use the residual voltage -3V0 as
polarizing quantity V3P.
where:
VA, VB, VC are fundamental frequency phasors of three individual phase voltages.
In order to use this, all three phase-to-ground voltages must be connected to three IED VT
inputs.
The residual voltage is pre-processed by a discrete fourier filter. Thus, the phasor of the
fundamental frequency component of the residual voltage is derived.
This phasor is used together with the phasor of the operating directional current, in order
to determine the direction to the ground fault (Forward/Reverse). In order to enable
voltage polarizing the magnitude of polarizing voltage shall be bigger than a minimum
level defined by setting parameter VpolMin.
It shall be noted that residual voltage (-3V0) or negative sequence voltage (-3V2) is used
to determine the location of the ground fault. This insures the required inversion of the
polarizing voltage within the ground-fault function.
Current polarizing
When current polarizing is selected the function will use an external residual current (3I0)
as polarizing quantity IPol. This current can be:
I Pol = 3 × Io = IA + IB + IC
EQUATION2019-ANSI V1 EN (Equation 14)
where:
IA, IB and IC are fundamental frequency phasors of three individual phase currents.
The residual current is pre-processed by a discrete fourier filter. Thus the phasor of the
fundamental frequency component of the polarizing current is derived. This phasor is then
multiplied with pre-set equivalent zero-sequence source Impedance in order to calculate
equivalent polarizing voltage VIPol in accordance with the following formula:
which will be then used, together with the phasor of the operating current, in order to
determine the direction to the ground fault (Forward/Reverse).
In order to enable current polarizing the magnitude of polarizing current shall be bigger
than a minimum level defined by setting parameter IPolMin.
Dual polarizing
When dual polarizing is selected the function will use the vectorial sum of the voltage
based and current based polarizing in accordance with the following formula:
Vpol and Ipol can be either zero sequence component or negative sequence component
depending upon the user selection.
Then the phasor of the total polarizing voltage VTotPol will be used, together with the
phasor of the operating current, to determine the direction of the ground fault (Forward/
Reverse).
The individual steps within the protection can be set as non-directional. When this setting
is selected it is then possible via function binary input BLKx to provide external
directional control (that is, torque control) by for example using one of the following
functions if available in the IED:
Zero sequence components will be used for detecting directionality for ground fault
function. In some cases zero sequence quantities might detect directionality wrong.
Negative sequence quantities will be used in such scenario. The user can select either zero
sequence components or negative sequence components for detecting directionality with
the parameter SeqTypeIPol. I3PDIR input always connected to the same source as I3P
input.
The base quantities are entered as global settings for all functions in the IED. Base current
(IBase) shall be entered as rated phase current of the protected object in primary amperes.
Base voltage (VBase) shall be entered as rated phase-to-phase voltage of the protected
object in primary kV.
Each overcurrent step uses operating quantity Iop (residual current) as measuring
quantity. Each of the four residual overcurrent steps has the following built-in facilities:

The protection can be completely blocked from the binary input BLOCK. Output signals
for respective step, and PUSTx and TRSTx, can be blocked from the binary input BLKx.
The trip signals from the function can be blocked from the binary input BLKTR.
It shall be noted that at least one of the four residual overcurrent steps shall
be set as directional in order to enable execution of the directional
supervision element and the integrated directional comparison function.
The protection has integrated directional feature. As the operating quantity current lop is
always used. The polarizing method is determined by the parameter setting polMethod.
The polarizing quantity will be selected by the function in one of the following three ways:
The operating and polarizing quantity are then used inside the directional element, as

A harmonic restrain of four step residual overcurrent protection function EF4PTOC can
be chosen for each step by a parameter setting HarmRestrainx. If the ratio of the 2nd
harmonic component in relation to the fundamental frequency component in the residual
current exceeds the preset level (defined by parameter 2ndHarmStab) then ST2NDHRM
function output signal is set to logical value one and harmonic restraining feature to the
function block will be applicable.
Blocking from 2nd harmonic element activates if all three criteria are satisfied:
If all the above three conditions are fulfilled then ST2NDHRM function output signal is
set to logical value one and harmonic restraining feature to the function block is
applicable.
In addition to the basic functionality explained above the 2nd harmonic blocking can be set
in such way to seal-in until residual current disappears. This feature might be required to
stabilize EF4PTOC (51N67N) during switching of parallel transformers in the station. In
case of parallel transformers there is a risk of sympathetic inrush current. If one of the
transformers is in operation, and the parallel transformer is switched in, the asymmetric
inrush current of the switched in transformer will cause partial saturation of the
transformer already in service. This is called transferred saturation. The 2nd harmonic of
the inrush currents of the two transformers is in phase opposition. The summation of the
two currents thus gives a small 2nd harmonic current. The residual fundamental current is
however significant. The inrush current of the transformer in service before the parallel
transformer energizing, is a little delayed compared to the first transformer. Therefore we
have high 2nd harmonic current component initially. After a short period this current is
however small and the normal 2nd harmonic blocking resets. If the BlkParTransf function
is activated the 2nd harmonic restrain signal is latched as long as the residual current
measured by the relay is larger than a selected step current level by using setting
UseStartValue.
This feature has been called Block for Parallel Transformers. This 2nd harmonic seal-in
feature is activated when all of the following three conditions are simultaneously fulfilled:
Once Block for Parallel Transformers is activated the basic 2nd harmonic blocking signal
is sealed-in until the residual current magnitude falls below a value defined by parameter
setting Use_PUValue (see condition 3 above).
Simplified logic diagram for 2nd harmonic blocking feature is shown in figure 64.

Integrated in the four step residual overcurrent protection are Switch on to fault logic
(SOTF) and Under-Time logic. The setting parameter SOTF is set to activate either SOTF
or Under-Time logic or both. When the circuit breaker is closing there is a risk to close it
onto a permanent fault, for example during an autoreclosing sequence. The SOTF logic
will enable fast fault clearance during such situations. The time during which SOTF and
Under-Time logics will be active after activation is defined by the setting parameter t4U.
The SOTF logic uses the pickup signal from step 2 or step 3 for its operation, selected by
setting parameter StepForSOTF. The SOTF logic can be activated either from change in
circuit breaker position or from circuit breaker close command pulse. The setting
parameter SOTFSel can be set for activation of CB position open change, CB position
closed change or CB close command. In case of a residual current pickup from step 2 or
3 (dependent on setting) the function will give a trip after a set delay tSOTF. This delay is
normally set to a short time (default 200 ms).
The Under-Time logic always uses the pickup signal from the step 4. The Under-Time
logic will normally be set to operate for a lower current level than the SOTF function. The
Under-Time logic can also be blocked by the 2nd harmonic restraint feature. This enables
high sensitivity even if power transformer inrush currents can occur at breaker closing.
This logic is typically used to detect asymmetry of CB poles immediately after switching
of the circuit breaker. The Under-Time logic is activated either from change in circuit
breaker position or from circuit breaker close and open command pulses. This selection is
done by setting parameter ActUnderTime. In case of a pickup from step 4 this logic will
give a trip after a set delay tUnderTime. This delay is normally set to a relatively short time
(default 300 ms). Practically the Under-Time logic acts as circuit breaker pole-
discrepancy protection, but it is only active immediately after breaker switching. The
Under-Time logic can only be used in solidly or low impedance grounded systems.

These inputs are connected from the corresponding pre-processing function blocks in the
Configuration Tool within PCM600.
Four step negative sequence overcurrent protection NS4PTOC (46I2) function always
uses negative sequence current (I2) for its operating quantity. The negative sequence
current is calculated from three-phase current input within the IED. The pre-processing
block calculates I2 from the first three inputs into the pre-processing block by using the
following formula:
1
I2 =
3
(
× IA + a × IB + a × IC
2
)
ANSIEQUATION2266 V1 EN (Equation 17)
where:
IA, IB, IC are fundamental frequency phasors of three individual phase currents.
a is so called operator which gives a phase shift of 120 deg, that is, a = 1∠120 deg
a2 similarly gives a phase shift of 240 deg, that is, a2 = 1∠240 deg
The phasor magnitude is used within the NS4PTOC (4612) protection to compare it with
the set operation current value of the four steps (Pickup1, Pickup2, Pickup3 or Pickup4).
If the negative sequence current is larger than the set operation current and the step is used
in non-directional mode a signal from the comparator for this step is set to true. This
signal, without delay, activates the output signal PU_STx (x=1 - 4) for this step and a
common PICKUP signal.
A polarizing quantity is used within the protection to determine the direction to the fault
(Forward/Reverse).
Four step negative sequence overcurrent protection NS4PTOC (4612) function uses the
voltage polarizing method.
NS4PTOC (4612) uses the negative sequence voltage -V2 as polarizing quantity V3P.
This voltage is calculated from three phase voltage input within the IED. The pre-
processing block calculates -V2 from the first three inputs into the pre-processing block
by using the following formula:
1
V2 = (
× VA + a × VB + a × VC
2
)
3
ANSIEQUATION00024 V1 EN
where:
VA, VB, VC are fundamental frequency phasors of three individual phase voltages.
To use this all three phase-to-ground voltages must be connected to three IED VT inputs.
This phasor is used together with the phasor of the operating current, in order to determine
the direction to the fault (Forward/Reverse).To enable voltage polarizing the magnitude
of polarizing voltage must be bigger than a minimum level defined by setting VpolMin.
Note that –V2 is used to determine the location of the fault. This ensures the required
inversion of the polarizing voltage within the function.
The individual steps within the protection can be set as non-directional. When this setting
is selected it is then possible via function binary input BLKx (where x indicates the
relevant step within the protection) to provide external directional control (that is, torque
control) by for example using one of the following functions if available in the IED:
Simplified logic diagram for one negative sequence overcurrent stage is shown in the
following figure:

NS4PTOC (4612) can be completely blocked from the binary input BLOCK. The pickup
signals from NS4PTOC (4612) for each stage can be blocked from the binary input
BLKx. The trip signals from NS4PTOC (4612) can be blocked from the binary input
BLKTR.
At least one of the four negative sequence overcurrent steps must be set as
directional in order to enable execution of the directional supervision
element and the integrated directional comparison function.
The operating and polarizing quantity are then used inside the directional element, as
shown in figure 62, to determine the direction of the fault.

7.5.2 Functionality
If a power transformer reaches very high temperatures the equipment might be damaged.
The insulation within the transformer will experience forced ageing. As a consequence of
this the risk of internal phase-to-phase or phase-to-ground faults will increase.
The thermal overload protection estimates the internal heat content of the transformer
(temperature) continuously. This estimation is made by using a thermal model of the
transformer with two time constants, which is based on current measurement.
Two warning pickup levels are available. This enables actions in the power system to be
done before dangerous temperatures are reached. If the temperature continues to increase
to the trip value, the protection initiates a trip of the protected transformer.

7.6.2 Functionality
Breaker failure protection (CCRBRF) ensures a fast backup tripping of the surrounding
breakers in case the own breaker fails to open. CCRBRF (50BF) can be current-based,
contact-based or an adaptive combination of these two conditions.
A current check with extremely short reset time is used as check criterion to achieve high
security against inadvertent operation.
Contact check criteria can be used where the fault current through the breaker is small.
CCRBRF (50BF) can be single- or three-phase initiated to allow use with single pole
tripping applications. For the three-phase version of CCRBRF (50BF) the current criteria
can be set to trip only if two out of four for example, two phases or one phase plus the
residual current pickups. This gives a higher security to the back-up trip command.

The initiate signal can be phase selective or general (for all three phases). Phase selective
initiate signals enable single pole re-trip function. The re-trip attempt is made after a set
time delay t1. The re-trip function can be done with or without current check. With the
current check, the re-trip is only performed if the current through the circuit breaker is
larger than the operate current level.
The initiate signal can be an internal or external protection trip signal. This signal will
initiate the back-up trip timer. The function detects the successful breaker opening, either
by detection of low current through RMS evaluation and a special adapted current
algorithm or by open contact indication. The special algorithm enables a very fast
detection of successful breaker opening, that is, fast resetting of the current measurement.
If the current and/or contact detection has not detected breaker opening before the back-
up timer has run its time a back-up trip is initiated.
• The minimum length of the re-trip pulse, the back-up trip pulse and the back-up trip
pulse 2 are settable. The re-trip pulse, the back-up trip pulse and the back-up trip pulse
2 will however sustain as long as there is an indication of closed breaker.
• In the current detection it is possible to use three different options: 1 out of 3 where
it is sufficient to detect failure to open (high current) in one pole, 1 out of 4 where it
is sufficient to detect failure to open (high current) in one pole or high residual current
and 2 out of 4 where at least two current (phase current and/or residual current) shall
be high for breaker failure detection.
• The current detection level for the residual current can be set different from the setting
of phase current detection.
• It is possible to have different back-up time delays for single-phase faults and for
multi-phase faults.
• The back-up trip can be made without current check. It is possible to have this option
activated for small load currents only.
• It is possible to have instantaneous back-up trip function if a signal is high if the
circuit breaker is incapable to clear faults, for example at low gas pressure.

The initiate signal enables the re-trip function. This means that a second attempt to open
the breaker is done. The re-trip attempt can be made after a set time delay. The re-trip
function can be done with or without current check. With the current check the re-trip is
only performed if the current through the circuit breaker is larger than the operate current
level.
The initiate signal can be an internal or external protection trip signal. This signal starts the
back-up trip timer. If the opening of the breaker is successful this is detected by the
function, both by detection of low RMS current and by a special adapted algorithm. The
special algorithm enables a very fast detection of successful breaker opening, that is, fast
resetting of the current measurement. If the current and/or contact detection has not
detected breaker opening before the set back-up time has elapsed, a back-up trip is
initiated. There is also a possibility to have a second back-up trip output activated a
settable time after the first back-up trip.
• The minimum length of the re-trip pulse, the back-up trip pulse and the back-up trip
pulse 2 are settable. The re-trip pulse, the back-up trip pulse and the back-up trip pulse
2 will however sustain as long as there is an indication of closed breaker.
• The back-up trip can be made without current check. It is possible to have this option
activated for small load currents only.
• It is possible to have instantaneous back-up trip function if a signal (52FAIL) is high
due to the circuit breaker being unable to clear faults, for example at low gas pressure.

7.8.2 Functionality
The task of a generator in a power plant is to convert mechanical energy available as a
torque on a rotating shaft to electric energy.
Sometimes, the mechanical power from a prime mover may decrease so much that it does
not cover bearing losses and ventilation losses. Then, the synchronous generator becomes
a synchronous motor and starts to take electric power from the rest of the power system.
This operating state, where individual synchronous machines operate as motors, implies
no risk for the machine itself. If the generator under consideration is very large and if it
consumes lots of electric power, it may be desirable to disconnect it to ease the task for the
rest of the power system.
Often, the motoring condition may imply that the turbine is in a very dangerous state. The
task of the low forward power protection is to protect the turbine and not to protect the
generator itself.
Figure 83 illustrates the low forward power and reverse power protection with
underpower and overpower functions respectively. The underpower IED gives a higher
margin and should provide better dependability. On the other hand, the risk for unwanted
operation immediately after synchronization may be higher. One should set the
underpower IED to trip if the active power from the generator is less than about 2%. One
should set the overpower IED to trip if the power flow from the network to the generator
is higher than 1% depending on the type of turbine.
When IED with a metering class input CTs is used pickup can be set to more sensitive
value (e.g.0,5% or even to 0,2%).

The active and reactive power is available from the function and can be used for
monitoring and fault recording.
The calculated power component is compared to the power pick up setting Power1(2). For
directional underpower protection, a pickup signal PICKUP1(2) is activated if the
calculated power component is smaller than the pick up value. For directional overpower
protection, a pickup signal PICKUP1(2) is activated if the calculated power component is
larger than the pick up value. After a set time delay TripDelay1(2) a trip TRIP1(2) signal
is activated if the pickup signal is still active. At activation of any of the two stages a
common signal PICKUP will be activated. At trip from any of the two stages also a
common signal TRIP will be activated.
To avoid instability there is a settable hysteresis in the power function. The absolute
hysteresis of the stage1(2) is Hysteresis1(2) = abs (Power1(2) + drop-power1(2)). For
generator low forward power protection the power setting is very low, normally down to
0.02 p.u. of rated generator power. The hysteresis should therefore be set to a smaller
value. The drop-power value of stage1 can be calculated with the Power1(2),
Hysteresis1(2): drop-power1(2) = Power1(2) + Hysteresis1(2)
For small power1 values the hysteresis1 may not be too big, because the drop-power1(2)
would be too small. In such cases, the hysteresis1 greater than (0.5 · Power1(2)) is
corrected to the minimal value.
If the measured power drops under the drop-power1(2) value, the function will reset after
a set time DropDelay1(2). The reset means that the pickup signal will drop out and that the
timer of the stage will reset.
In order to minimize the influence of the noise signal on the measurement it is possible to
introduce the recursive, low pass filtering of the measured values for S (P, Q). This will
make slower measurement response to the step changes in the measured quantity.
Filtering is performed in accordance with the following recursive formula:
S = TD ⋅ SOld + (1 − TD ) ⋅ SCalculated
EQUATION1959-ANSI V1 EN (Equation 35)
Where
S is a new measured value to be used for the protection function
Sold is the measured value given from the function in previous execution cycle
TD is settable parameter by the end user which influence the filter properties
Default value for parameter TD is 0.00. With this value the new calculated value is
immediately given out without any filtering (that is without any additional delay). When
TD is set to value bigger than 0, the filtering is enabled. A typical value for TD=0.92 in
case of slow operating functions.
Measured currents and voltages used in the Power function can be calibrated to get class
0.5 measuring accuracy. This is achieved by amplitude and angle compensation at 5, 30
and 100% of rated current and voltage. The compensation below 5% and above 100% is
constant and linear in between, see example in figure 86.

The active and reactive power is available from the function and can be used for
monitoring and fault recording.
The calculated power component is compared to the power pick up setting Power1(2). A
pickup signal PICKUP1(2) is activated if the calculated power component is larger than
the pick up value. After a set time delay TripDelay1(2) a trip TRIP1(2) signal is activated
if the pickup signal is still active. At activation of any of the two stages a common signal
PICKUP will be activated. At trip from any of the two stages also a common signal TRIP
will be activated.
To avoid instability there is a settable hysteresis in the power function. The absolute
hysteresis of the stage1(2) is Hysteresis1(2) = abs (Power1(2) – drop-power1(2)). For
generator reverse power protection the power setting is very low, normally down to 0.02
p.u. of rated generator power. The hysteresis should therefore be set to a smaller value.
The drop-power value of stage1 can be calculated with the Power1(2), Hysteresis1(2):
drop-power1(2) = Power1(2) – Hysteresis1(2)
For small power1 values the hysteresis1 may not be too big, because the drop-power1(2)
would be too small. In such cases, the hysteresis1 greater than (0.5 · Power1(2)) is
corrected to the minimal value.
If the measured power drops under the drop-power1(2) value the function will reset after
a set time DropDelay1(2). The reset means that the pickup signal will drop out ant that the
timer of the stage will reset.
In order to minimize the influence of the noise signal on the measurement it is possible to
introduce the recursive, low pass filtering of the measured values for S (P, Q). This will
make slower measurement response to the step changes in the measured quantity.
Filtering is performed in accordance with the following recursive formula:
S = k × SOld + (1 - k ) × SCalculated
EQUATION1959 V1 EN (Equation 45)
Where
S is a new measured value to be used for the protection function
Sold is the measured value given from the function in previous execution cycle
k is settable parameter by the end user which influence the filter properties
Default value for parameter k is 0.00. With this value the new calculated value is
immediately given out without any filtering (that is, without any additional delay). When k
is set to value bigger than 0, the filtering is enabled. A typical value for k = 0.92 in case
of slow operating functions.
Measured currents and voltages used in the Power function can be calibrated to get class
0.5 measuring accuracy. This is achieved by amplitude and angle compensation at 5, 30
and 100% of rated current and voltage. The compensation below 5% and above 100% is
constant and linear in between, see example in figure 90.

Three-phase input current from the SCB is connected via the preprocessing block to
CBPGAPC function. From this preprocessing block CBPGAPC function obtains the
following quantities for every phase:
• Current sample values with sampling rate of 1 kHz in 50 Hz power system and 1.2
kHz in 60 Hz power system (that is, 20 samples in fundamental power system cycle).
These samples correspond to the instantaneous current waveform of the protected
SCB and in further text will be marked with symbol “i~”
• Equivalent RMS current value based on Peak Current measurement. This value is
obtained as maximum absolute current sample value over last power system cycle
divided by √2 and in further text will be marked with symbol “IpeakRMS”
• Equivalent true RMS current value based on the following formula:
åi 2
~m
I TRMS = m =1
N
EQUATION2232 V1 EN (Equation 46)
where N is used number of samples in one power system cycle (that is, 20) and i~m are last
N samples of the current waveform. In further text this equivalent true rms current
quantity will be marked with symbol ITRMS.
Note that the measured IpeakRMS value is available as a service value in primary amperes
for every phase from the function.
From the measured SCB currents, voltage value across every SCB phase is calculated.
This is done by continuous integration of the measured current waveform by using the
following principal equation:
1
v ( t) = × i (t) × ¶t
C ò
EQUATION2233-ANSI V1 EN (Equation 47)
Where:
v(t) is voltage waveform across capacitor
i(t) is capacitor current waveform
C is capacitance in Farads
By using this integration procedure and subsequent filtering the following quantities for
every phase are calculated within the function:
• Voltage sample values with rate of 1 kHz in 50 Hz power system and 1.2 kHz in 60
Hz power system (that is, 20 samples in fundamental power system cycle). These
samples correspond to the instantaneous voltage waveform across the protected SCB
and in further text will be marked with symbol v~
• Equivalent rms voltage value based on Peak Voltage measurement. This value is
obtained as maximum absolute voltage sample value over last power system cycle
divided by √2 and in further text will be marked with symbol VpeakRMS

Where:

In further text this equivalent true RMS voltage quantity will be marked with symbol
VTRMS
In order to avoid dependence of the current integration on exact value of the protected
capacitor bank capacitance the whole integration process is done in per unit system. In
order to convert measured current in primary amperes into per unit value the base current
for the protected capacitor bank shall be known. This value is set as parameter IBase and
it represents the rated SCB current in primary amperes at fundamental frequency. This
value is calculated for a three-phase SCB as follows:
1000 × Q [MVAr]
IBase =
3 × V [kV ]
EQUATION2235-ANSI V1 EN (Equation 49)
Where:
IBase is base current for the function in primary amperes
Q[MVAr] is shunt capacitor bank MVAr rating
V[kV] is shunt capacitor bank rated phase-to-phase voltage in kV
Once the base current is known the internal voltage calculations can be performed. Note
that the calculated VpeakRMS value is available as a service value in percent for every phase
from the function.
Generated reactive power (Q) by the capacitor bank is calculated within the function for
every phase as given by the following equation:
Where:
Q is generated reactive power in per-unit
VTRMS is capacitor equivalent true RMS voltage in per-unit
Additional filtering of the calculated Q quantity is performed within the function in order
to avoid overshooting during capacitor switching. Note that the calculated Q value is
available as a service value in percent for every phase from the function.

The overcurrent protection feature protects the capacitor bank from excessive current
conditions. The sub function takes the current peakRMS value from the preprocessing
block in the IED as input. The peakRMS value of the current is compared with the setting
of parameter PU 51. Whenever the peakRMS value of the current crosses the set level the
function sends a Pickup signal as output. The signal is passed through the definite timer
for giving the TRIP signal. Each phase will have its own Pickup and TRIP signals for
overcurrent. The internal logic for the overcurrent feature is shown in fig 95.

Undercurrent protection feature is used to disconnect the capacitor bank from the rest of
the power system when the voltage at the capacitor bank terminals is too low for too long
period of time. This sub function uses the current peakRMS value from the preprocessing
block in the IED as input. The peakRMS value of the current is compared to the set value
of the parameter PU_37. Whenever the peakRMS value of the current falls below the set
undercurrent level, the function will send a Pickup signal as output. The function can be
blocked when the current falls below the cut off level. The capacitor bank disconnected
signals are used for this blocking. This feature will help to prevent trip operation when the
capacitor bank is disconnected from the power system. The TRIP output signal is delayed
by a definite timer. Each phase will have its own Pickup and TRIP signals for
undercurrent. The internal logic for the undercurrent feature is shown in fig 96.

Harmonic overload protection feature will protect the capacitor from over load conditions
caused by harmonics. The sub-function protects the capacitor in two stages, first stage is
Inverse time delay (IDMT) based and a second stage is based on Definite Time (DT)
delay.
IDMT curve has adjustable k factor and inverse time characteristic is shown in figure 97,
where k = 1. The IDMT curve starts only when the equivalent RMS voltage value is higher
than set value of parameter PU_HOL_DT_V and stays active until the value falls below
the reset value.

1. When parameter K_HOL_IDMT has different value from 1.0 triping time is
proportionally changed (for example, when K_HOL_IDMT =0.9 triping times will be
90% of the values shown in above figure 97 and table 285)
2. Between the seven main points in table 285, the trip time is calculate by using linear
interpolation in the logarithmic scale
3. Integration process is used to calculate the trip time for varying voltage condition
4. By setting parameter tmin_HOL_IDMT =0.1s standard requirements for minimum
triping time of 100ms for harmonic overload IDMT curve can be fluffed
5. By setting parameter tMax_HOL_IDMT =2000s operation for small harmonics
overload condition when VpeakRMS is in-between 1.1pu and 1.2pu is assured
Harmonic overload definite time curve has settings facilities for independent pickup and
time delay. It can be used as separate tripping stage or as an alarm stage.
Both of these two harmonic overload stages are active during capacitor bank energizing
and are capable to properly measure and trip up to and including 9th harmonic.

There will be an undesired discontinuity. Therefore a tuning parameter CrvSatn is set to
compensate for this phenomenon. In the voltage interval Vpickup< down to Vpickup< ·

Trip signal issuing requires that the undervoltage condition continues for at least the user
set time delay. This time delay is set by the parameter t1 and t2 for definite time mode (DT)
and by some special voltage level dependent time curves for the inverse time mode
(TUV). If the pickup condition, with respect to the measured voltage ceases during the
delay time, and is not fulfilled again within a user defined reset time (tReset1 and tReset2
for the definite time and tIReset1 and tIReset2pickup for the inverse time) the
corresponding pickup output is reset. Here it should be noted that after leaving the
hysteresis area, the pickup condition must be fulfilled again and it is not sufficient for the
signal to only return back to the hysteresis area. Note that for the undervoltage function the
TUV reset time is constant and does not depend on the voltage fluctuations during the
drop-off period. However, there are three ways to reset the timer, either the timer is reset
instantaneously, or the timer value is frozen during the reset time, or the timer value is
linearly decreased during the reset time. See figure 102 and figure 103.

8.1.7.3 Blocking
If the measured voltage level decreases below the setting of IntBlkStVal1, either the trip
output of step 1, or both the trip and the PICKUP outputs of step 1, are blocked. The
characteristic of the blocking is set by the IntBlkSel1 parameter. This internal blocking can
also be set to Disabled resulting in no voltage based blocking. Corresponding settings and
functionality are valid also for step 2.
In case of disconnection of the high voltage component the measured voltage will get very
low. The event will PICKUP both the under voltage function and the blocking function,
as seen in figure 107. The delay of the blocking function must be set less than the time
delay of under voltage function.

Two step overvoltage protection (OV2PTOV, 59) function can be used to detect open line
ends, normally then combined with a directional reactive over-power function to
supervise the system voltage. When triggered, the function will cause an alarm, switch in
reactors, or switch out capacitor banks.
OV2PTOV (59) has two voltage steps, each of them with inverse or definite time delayed.
OV2PTOV (59) has a high reset ratio to allow settings close to system service voltage.

The time delay characteristic is individually chosen for the two steps and can be either,
definite time delay or inverse time delay.
The voltage related settings are made in percent of the global set base voltage VBase,
which is set in kV, phase-to-phase.
The setting of the analog inputs are given as primary phase-to-ground or phase-to-phase
voltage. OV2PTOV (59) will trip if the voltage gets higher than the set percentage of the
set base voltage VBase. This means operation for phase-to-ground voltage over:
All the three voltages are measured continuously, and compared with the set values,
Pickup1 for Step 1 and Pickup2 for Step 2. The parameters OpMode1 and OpMode2
influence the requirements to activate the PICKUP outputs. Either 1 out of 3, 2 out of 3 or
3 out of 3 measured voltages have to be higher than the corresponding set point to issue the
corresponding PICKUP signal.
The time delay for the two steps can be either definite time delay (DT) or inverse time
delay (TOV). For the inverse time delay four different modes are available:
• inverse curve A
• inverse curve B
• inverse curve C
• customer programmable inverse curve

There will be an undesired discontinuity. Therefore, a tuning parameter CrvSatn is set to
compensate for this phenomenon. In the voltage interval Vpickup up to Vpickup · (1.0 +

Figure 110: Voltage used for the inverse time characteristic integration
Operation of the trip signal requires that the overvoltage condition continues for at least
the user set time delay. This time delay is set by the parameter t1 and t2 for definite time
mode (DT) and by selected voltage level dependent time curves for the inverse time mode
(TOV). If the PICKUP condition, with respect to the measured voltage ceases during the
delay time, and is not fulfilled again within a user defined reset time (tReset1 and tReset2
for the definite time and tIReset1 and tIReset2 for the inverse time) the corresponding
PICKUP output is reset, after that the defined reset time has elapsed. Here it should be
noted that after leaving the hysteresis area, the PICKUP condition must be fulfilled again
and it is not sufficient for the signal to only return back to the hysteresis area. The
hysteresis value for each step is settable HystAbsn (where n means either 1 or 2
respectively) to allow a high and accurate reset of the function. For OV2PTOV (59) the
TOV reset time is constant and does not depend on the voltage fluctuations during the
drop-off period. However, there are three ways to reset the timer: either the timer is reset
instantaneously, or the timer value is frozen during the reset time, or the timer value is
linearly decreased during the reset time.

Additionally, LOVPTUV (27) is automatically blocked if only one or two phase voltages
have been detected low for more than tBlock.
LOVPTUV (27) operates again only if the line has been restored to full voltage for at least
tRestore. Operation of the function is also inhibited by fuse failure and open circuit
breaker information signals, by their connection to dedicated inputs of the function block.
Due to undervoltage conditions being continuous the trip pulse is limited to a length set by
setting tPulse.
The operation of LOVPTUV (27) is supervised by the fuse-failure function (BLKV input)
and the information about the open position (CBOPEN) of the associated circuit breaker.
The BLOCK input can be connected to a binary input of the IED in order to receive a block
command from external devices or can be software connected to other internal functions
of the IED itself in order to receive a block command from internal functions. LOVPTUV

The fundamental frequency of the measured input voltage is measured continuously, and
compared with the set value, PUFrequency. The frequency function is dependent on the
voltage magnitude. If the voltage magnitude decreases below the setting
MinValFreqMeas in the SMAI preprocessing function, which is described in the Basic
IED Functions chapter and is set as a percentage of a global base voltage parameter,
SAPTUF (81) gets blocked, and the output BLKDMAGN is issued. All voltage settings
are made in percent of the setting VBase, which should be set as a phase-phase voltage in
kV.
To avoid oscillations of the output PICKUP signal, a hysteresis has been included.
The time delay for underfrequency protection SAPTUF (81) can be either a settable
definite time delay or a voltage magnitude dependent time delay, where the time delay
depends on the voltage level; a high voltage level gives a longer time delay and a low
voltage level causes a short time delay. For the definite time delay, the setting tDelay sets
the time delay.
For the voltage dependent time delay the measured voltage level and the settings VNom,
VMin, Exponent, t_MaxTripDelay and t_MinTripDelay set the time delay according to
figure 129 and equation 69. The setting TimerOperation is used to decide what type of
time delay to apply.
Trip signal issuing requires that the underfrequency condition continues for at least the
user set time delay tDelay. If the PICKUP condition, with respect to the measured
frequency ceases during this user set delay time, and is not fulfilled again within a user
defined reset time, tReset, the PICKUP output is reset, after that the defined reset time has
elapsed. Here it should be noted that after leaving the hysteresis area, the PICKUP
condition must be fulfilled again and it is not sufficient for the signal to only return back
to the hysteresis area.
On the RESTORE output of SAPTUF (81) a 100ms pulse is issued, after a time delay
corresponding to the setting of tRestore, when the measured frequency returns to the level
corresponding to the setting RestoreFreq.
Since the fundamental frequency in a power system is the same all over the system, except
some deviations during power oscillations, another criterion is needed to decide, where to
take actions, based on low frequency. In many applications the voltage level is very
suitable, and in most cases is load shedding preferable in areas with low voltage.
Therefore, a voltage dependent time delay has been introduced, to make sure that load
shedding, or other actions, take place at the right location. At constant voltage, V, the
voltage dependent time delay is calculated according to equation 69. At non-constant
voltage, the actual time delay is integrated in a similar way as for the inverse time
characteristic for the undervoltage and overvoltage functions.

9.1.7.5 Design
The frequency measuring element continuously measures the frequency of the positive
sequence voltage and compares it to the setting PUFrequency. The frequency signal is
filtered to avoid transients due to switchings and faults. The time integrator can trip either
due to a definite delay time or to the special voltage dependent delay time. When the
frequency has returned back to the setting of RestoreFreq, the RESTORE output is issued
after the time delay tRestore. The design of underfrequency protection SAPTUF (81) is

9.2.2 Functionality
Overfrequency protection function SAPTOF (81) is applicable in all situations, where
reliable detection of high fundamental power system frequency is needed.
Overfrequency occurs because of sudden load drops or shunt faults in the power network.
Close to the generating plant, generator governor problems can also cause over frequency.
SAPTOF (81) measures frequency with high accuracy, and is used mainly for generation
shedding and remedial action schemes. It is also used as a frequency stage initiating load
restoring. A definite time delay is provided for trip.
The operation is based on positive sequence voltage measurement and requires two phase-
phase or three phase-neutral voltages to be connected. For information about how to
connect analog inputs, refer to Application manual/IED application/Analog inputs/

The time delay for Overfrequency protection SAPTOF (81) is a settable definite time
delay, specified by the setting tDelay.
TRIP signal issuing requires that the overfrequency condition continues for at least the
user set time delay, tReset. If the PICKUP condition, with respect to the measured
frequency ceases during this user set delay time, and is not fulfilled again within a user
defined reset time, tReset, the PICKUP output is reset, after that the defined reset time has
elapsed. It is to be noted that after leaving the hysteresis area, the PICKUP condition must
be fulfilled again and it is not sufficient for the signal to only return back to the hysteresis
area.
The total time delay consists of the set value for time delay plus minimum
trip time of the pickup function (80 - 90 ms).

To avoid oscillations of the output PICKUP signal, a hysteresis has been included.
Rate-of-change frequency protection SAPFRC (81) has a settable definite time delay,
tTrip. .
Trip signal issuing requires that the rate-of-change of frequency condition continues for
at least the user set time delay, tTrip. If the PICKUP condition, with respect to the
measured frequency ceases during the delay time, and is not fulfilled again within a user
defined reset time, tReset, the PICKUP output is reset, after that the defined reset time has
elapsed. Here it should be noted that after leaving the hysteresis area, the PICKUP
condition must be fulfilled again and it is not sufficient for the signal to only return back
into the hysteresis area.
The RESTORE output of SAPFRC (81) is set, after a time delay equal to the setting of
tRestore, when the measured frequency has returned to the level corresponding to
RestoreFreq, after an issue of the TRIP output signal. If tRestore is set to 0.000 s the
restore functionality is disabled, and no output will be given. The restore functionality is
only active for lowering frequency conditions and the restore sequence is disabled if a new
negative frequency gradient is detected during the restore period, defined by the settings
RestoreFreq and tRestore.

Two overcurrent protection steps are available. They are absolutely identical and
therefore only one will be explained here.
Overcurrent step simply compares the magnitude of the measured current quantity (see
table 343) with the set pickup level. Non-directional overcurrent step will pickup if the
magnitude of the measured current quantity is bigger than this set level. However
depending on other enabled built-in features this overcurrent pickup might not cause the
overcurrent step pickup signal. Pickup signal will only come if all of the enabled built-in
features in the overcurrent step are fulfilled at the same time.
This feature will simple prevent overcurrent step pickup if the second-to-first harmonic
ratio in the measured current exceeds the set level.
Directional feature
The overcurrent protection step operation can be made dependent on the relevant phase
angle between measured current phasor (see table 343) and measured voltage phasor (see
table 344). In protection terminology it means that the General currrent and voltage
protection (CVGAPC) function can be made directional by enabling this built-in feature.
In that case overcurrent protection step will only trip if the current flow is in accordance
with the set direction (Forward, which means towards the protected object, or Reverse,
which means from the protected object). For this feature it is of the outmost importance to
understand that the measured voltage phasor (see table 344) and measured current phasor
(see table 343) will be used for directional decision. Therefore it is the sole responsibility
of the end user to select the appropriate current and voltage signals in order to get a proper
directional decision. CVGAPC function will NOT do this automatically. It will simply use
the current and voltage phasors selected by the end user to check for the directional
criteria.
Table 346 gives an overview of the typical choices (but not the only possible ones) for
these two quantities from traditional directional relays.

Unbalance current or voltage measurement shall not be used when the directional feature
is enabled.
Two types of directional measurement principles are available, I & V and IcosPhi&V. The
first principle, referred to as "I & V" in the parameter setting tool, checks that:
• the magnitude of the measured current is bigger than the set pick-up level
• the phasor of the measured current is within the operating region (defined by the relay
trip angle, ROADir parameter setting; see figure 136).

The second principle, referred to as "IcosPhi&V" in the parameter setting tool, checks
that:
• that the product I·cos(Φ) is bigger than the set pick-up level, where Φ is angle
between the current phasor and the mta line
• that the phasor of the measured current is within the operating region (defined by the
I·cos(Φ) straight line and the relay trip angle, ROADir parameter setting; see

Note that it is possible to decide by a parameter setting how the directional feature shall
behave when the magnitude of the measured voltage phasor falls below the pre-set value.
User can select one of the following three options:
It shall also be noted that the memory duration is limited in the algorithm to 100 ms. After
that time the current direction will be locked to the one determined during memory time
and it will re-set only if the current fails below set pickup level or voltage goes above set
voltage memory limit.

This feature will simply change the set overcurrent pickup level in accordance with
magnitude variations of the measured voltage. It shall be noted that this feature will as well
affect the pickup current value for calculation of trip times for IDMT curves (overcurrent
with IDMT curve will trip faster during low voltage conditions).

This feature will simply prevent overcurrent step to pickup if the magnitude of the
measured current quantity is smaller than the set percentage of the restrain current
magnitude. However this feature will not affect the pickup current value for calculation of
trip times for IDMT curves. This means that the IDMT curve trip time will not be
influenced by the restrain current magnitude.
When set, the pickup signal will start definite time delay or inverse (IDMT) time delay in
accordance with the end user setting. If the pickup signal has value one for longer time
than the set time delay, the overcurrent step will set its trip signal to one. Reset of the
pickup and trip signal can be instantaneous or time delay in accordance with the end user
setting.
Two undercurrent protection steps are available. They are absolutely identical and
therefore only one will be explained here. Undercurrent step simply compares the
magnitude of the measured current quantity (see table 343) with the set pickup level. The
undercurrent step will pickup and set its pickup signal to one if the magnitude of the
measured current quantity is smaller than this set level. The pickup signal will start
definite time delay with set time delay. If the pickup signal has value one for longer time
than the set time delay the undercurrent step will set its trip signal to one. Reset of the
pickup and trip signal can be instantaneous or time delay in accordance with the setting.
Two overvoltage protection steps are available. They are absolutely identical and
therefore only one will be explained here.
Overvoltage step simply compares the magnitude of the measured voltage quantity (see
table 344) with the set pickup level. The overvoltage step will pickup if the magnitude of
the measured voltage quantity is bigger than this set level.
The pickup signal will start definite time delay or inverse (IDMT) time delay in
accordance with the end user setting. If the pickup signal has value one for longer time
than the set time delay, the overvoltage step will set its trip signal to one. Reset of the
pickup and trip signal can be instantaneous or time delay in accordance with the end user
setting.
Two undervoltage protection steps are available. They are absolutely identical and
therefore only one will be explained here.
Undervoltage step simply compares the magnitude of the measured voltage quantity (see
table 344) with the set pickup level. The undervoltage step will pickup if the magnitude of
the measured voltage quantity is smaller than this set level.
The pickup signal will start definite time delay or inverse (IDMT) time delay in
accordance with the end user setting. If the pickup signal has value one for longer time
than the set time delay, the undervoltage step will set its trip signal to one. Reset of the
pickup and trip signal can be instantaneous or time delay in accordance with the end user
setting.

Fuse failure supervision FUFSPVC - -
11.1.2 Functionality
The aim of the fuse failure supervision function FUFSPVC is to block voltage measuring
functions at failures in the secondary circuits between the voltage transformer and the IED
in order to avoid inadvertent operations that otherwise might occur.
The fuse failure supervision function basically has three different detection methods,
negative sequence and zero sequence based detection and an additional delta voltage and
delta current detection.
The negative sequence detection algorithm is recommended for IEDs used in isolated or
high-impedance grounded networks. It is based on the negative-sequence quantities.
The zero sequence detection is recommended for IEDs used in directly or low impedance
grounded networks. It is based on the zero sequence measuring quantities.
A criterion based on delta current and delta voltage measurements can be added to the fuse
failure supervision function in order to detect a three phase fuse failure, which in practice
is more associated with voltage transformer switching during station operations.

The zero and negative sequence function continuously measures the currents and voltages
in all three phases and calculates, see figure 148:
The measured signals are compared with their respective set values 3V0PU and 3I0PU,
3V2PU and 3I2PU.
The function enable the internal signal FuseFailDetZeroSeq if the measured zero-
sequence voltage is higher than the set value 3V0PU and the measured zero-sequence
current is below the set value 3I0PU.
The function enable the internal signal FuseFailDetNegSeq if the measured negative
sequence voltage is higher than the set value 3V2PU and the measured negative sequence
current is below the set value 3I2PU.
A drop out delay of 100 ms for the measured zero-sequence and negative sequence current
will prevent a false fuse failure detection at un-equal breaker opening at the two line ends.

The calculated values 3V0, 3I0, 3I2 and 3V2 are available as service values on local HMI
and monitoring tool in PCM600.
The input BLOCK signal is a general purpose blocking signal of the fuse failure
supervision function. It can be connected to a binary input of the IED in order to receive
a block command from external devices or can be software connected to other internal
functions of the IED itself in order to receive a block command from internal functions.
Through OR gate it can be connected to both binary inputs and internal function outputs.
The input BLKTRIP is intended to be connected to the trip output from any of the
protection functions included in the IED. When activated for more than 20 ms, the
operation of the fuse failure is blocked; a fixed drop-out timer prolongs the block for 100
ms. The aim is to increase the security against unwanted operations during the opening of
the breaker, which might cause unbalance conditions for which the fuse failure might
operate.
The output signal BLKZ will also be blocked if the internal dead line detection is
activated. The dead line detection signal has a 200 ms drop-out time delay.
The input signal MCBOP is supposed to be connected via a terminal binary input to the
N.C. auxiliary contact of the miniature circuit breaker protecting the VT secondary circuit.
The MCBOP signal sets the output signals BLKV and BLKZ in order to block all the
voltage related functions when the MCB is open independent of the setting of OpModeSel
selector. The additional drop-out timer of 150 ms prolongs the presence of MCBOP signal
to prevent the unwanted operation of voltage dependent function due to non simultaneous
closing of the main contacts of the miniature circuit breaker.
The input signal 89b is supposed to be connected via a terminal binary input to the N.C.
auxiliary contact of the line disconnector. The 89b signal sets the output signal BLKV 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. If
89b=0 it signifies that the line is connected to the system and when the 89b=1 it signifies
that the line is disconnected from the system and the block signal BLKV is generated.
The output BLKV can be used for blocking the voltage related measuring functions
(undervoltage protection, energizing check and so on) except for the impedance
protection.
The function output BLKZ shall be used for blocking the impedance protection function.
A simplified diagram for the functionality is found in figure 149. The calculation of the
changes of currents and voltages is based on a sample analysis algorithm. The calculated
delta quantities are compared with their respective set values DIPU and DVPU. The
algorithm detects a fuse failure if a sufficient change in voltage without a sufficient change
in current is detected in each phase separately. The following quantities are calculated in
all three phases:
The internal FuseFailDetDVDI signal is activated if the following conditions are fulfilled:
• The magnitude of the phase-ground voltage has been above VPPU for more than 1.5
cycles (i.e. 30 ms in a 50 Hz system)
• The magnitude of DV in three phases are higher than the corresponding setting
DVPU
• The magnitudes of DI in three phases are below the setting DI<
In addition to the above conditions, at least one of the following conditions shall be
fulfilled in order to activate the internal FuseFailDetDVDI signal:
• The magnitude of the phase currents in three phases are higher than the setting IPPU
• The circuit breaker is closed (52A = True)
The first criterion means that detection of failure in three phases together with high current
for the three phases will set the output. The measured phase current is used to reduce the
risk of false fuse failure detection. If the current on the protected line is low, a voltage drop
in the system (not caused by fuse failure) may be followed by current change lower than
the setting DIPU, and therefore a false fuse failure might occur.
The second criterion requires that the delta condition shall be fulfilled at the same time as
circuit breaker is closed. If this is an important disadvantage, connect the 52A input to
FALSE , then only the first criterion can enable the delta function.If the DVDI detection
of three phases set the internal signal FuseFailDetDVDI at the level high, then the signal
FuseFailDetDVDI will remain high as long as the voltage of three phases are lower then
the setting VPPU.
In addition to fuse failure detection, two internal signals DeltaV and DeltaI are also
generated by the delta current and delta voltage DVDI detection algorithm. The internal
signals DelatV and DeltaI are activated when a sudden change of voltage, or respectively
current, is detected. The detection of the sudden change is based on a sample analysis
algorithm. In particular DelatV is activated if at least three consecutive voltage samples
are higher then the setting DVPU. In a similar way DelatI is activated if at least three
consecutive current samples are higher then the setting DIPU.When DeltaV or DeltaI are
active, the output signals PU_DV_A, PU_DV_B, PU_DV_C and respectively PU_DI_A,
PU_DI_B, PU_DI_C, based on a sudden change of voltage or current detection, are
activated with a 20 ms time off delay. The common pickup output signals PU_DV or
PU_DI are activated with a 60 ms time off delay, if any sudden change of voltage or
current is detected.
The delta function (except the sudden change of voltage and current
detection) is deactivated by setting the parameter OpDVDI to Disabled.

A simplified diagram for the functionality is found in figure 152. The fuse failure
supervision function (FUFSPVC) can be switched on or off by the setting parameter
Operation to Enabled or Disabled.
The delta function can be activated by setting the parameter OpDVDI to Enabled. When
selected it operates in parallel with the sequence based algorithms.
If the fuse failure situation is present for more than 5 seconds and the setting parameter
SealIn is set to Enabled it will be sealed in as long as at least one phase voltage is below
the set value VSealInPU. This will keep the BLKV and BLKZ signals activated as long as
any phase voltage is below the set value VSealInPU. If all three phase voltages drop below
the set value VSealInPU and the setting parameter SealIn is set to Enabled the output
signal 3PH will also be activated. The signals 3PH, BLKV and BLKZ signals will now be
active as long as any phase voltage is below the set value VSealInPU.
If SealIn is set to Enabled the fuse failure condition is stored in the non-volatile memory
in the IED. At start-up of the IED (due to auxiliary power interruption or re-start due to
configuration change) it uses the stored value in its non-volatile memory and re-
establishes the conditions that were present before the shut down. All phase voltages must
be greater than VSealInPU before fuse failure is de-activated and resets the signals BLKU,
BLKZ and 3PH.
The output signal BLKV will also be active if all phase voltages have been above the
setting VSealInPU for more than 60 seconds, the zero or negative sequence voltage has
been above the set value 3V0PU and 3V2PU for more than 5 seconds, all phase currents
are below the setting IDLDPU (criteria for open phase detection) and the circuit breaker
is closed (input 52a is activated).
If a MCB is used then the input signal MCBOP is to be connected via a binary input to the
N.C. auxiliary contact of the miniature circuit breaker protecting the VT secondary circuit.
The MCBOP signal sets the output signals BLKV and BLKZ in order to block all the
voltage related functions when the MCB is open independent of the setting of OpModeSel
or OpDVDI. An additional drop-out timer of 150 ms prolongs the presence of MCBOP
signal to prevent the unwanted operation of voltage dependent function due to non
simultaneous closing of the main contacts of the miniature circuit breaker.
The input signal 89b is supposed to be connected via a terminal binary input to the N.C.
auxiliary contact of the line disconnector. The 89b signal sets the output signal BLKV in
order to block the voltage related functions when the line disconnector is open. The
impedance protection function does not have to be affected since there will be no line
currents that can cause malfunction of the distance protection.

If the main fuse voltage becomes smaller than the pilot fuse voltage (vMainA < vPilotA
or vMainB < vPilotB or vMainC < vPilotC) and the voltage difference exceeds the
operation level (Vdif Main block), a blocking signal will be initiated to indicate the main
fuse failure and block the voltage-dependent functions. In addition, the function also
indicates the phase in which the voltage reduction has occurred.
If the pilot fuse voltage becomes smaller than the main fuse voltage (vPilotA < vMainA

failure and also the faulty phase where the voltage reduction occurred.
When SealIn is set to Enabled and the fuse failure has last for more than 5 seconds, the

12.1.2 Functionality
The Synchronizing function allows closing of asynchronous networks at the correct
moment including the breaker closing time, which improves the network stability.
Synchrocheck, energizing check, and synchronizing SESRSYN (25) function checks that
the voltages on both sides of the circuit breaker are in synchronism, or with at least one
side dead to ensure that closing can be done safely.
SESRSYN (25) function includes a built-in voltage selection scheme for double bus and
breaker-and-a-half or ring busbar arrangements.
Manual closing as well as automatic reclosing can be checked by the function and can
have different settings.
For systems, which are running asynchronous, a synchronizing function is provided. The
main purpose of the synchronizing function is to provide controlled closing of circuit
breakers when two asynchronous systems are going to be connected. The synchronizing
function evaluates voltage difference, phase angle difference, slip frequency and
frequency rate of change before issuing a controlled closing of the circuit breaker. Breaker
closing time is a parameter setting.

The synchronism 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.
The energizing check function measures the bus and line voltages and compares them to
both high and low threshold detectors. The output is given only when the actual measured
quantities match the set conditions.
The synchronizing function measures the conditions across the circuit breaker, and also
determines the angle change occurring during the closing delay of the circuit breaker,
from the measured slip frequency. The output is given only when all measured conditions
are simultaneously within their set limits. The issue of the output is timed to give closure
at the optimal time including the time for the circuit breaker and the closing circuit.
For double bus single circuit breaker and breaker-and-a-half circuit breaker arrangements,
the SESRSYN (25) function blocks have the capability to make the necessary voltage
selection. For double bus single circuit breaker arrangements, selection of the correct
voltage is made using auxiliary contacts of the bus disconnectors. For breaker-and-a-half
circuit breaker arrangements, correct voltage selection is made using auxiliary contacts of
the bus disconnectors as well as the circuit breakers.
The internal logic for each function block as well as, the input and outputs, and the setting
parameters with default setting and setting ranges is described in this document. For
application related information, please refer to the application manual.
Logic diagrams
The logic diagrams that follow illustrate the main principles of the SESRSYN function
components such as Synchrocheck, Synchronizing, Energizing check and Voltage
selection, and are intended to simplify the understanding of the function.
Synchronism check
The voltage difference, frequency difference and phase angle difference values are
measured in the IED centrally and are available for the synchronism check function for
evaluation. By setting the phases used for SESRSYN, with the settings SelPhaseBus1,
SelPhaseBus2, SelPhaseLine1 and SelPhaseLine2, a compensation is made automatically
for the voltage amplitude difference and the phase angle difference caused if different
setting values are selected for both sides of the breaker. If needed an additional phase angle
adjustment can be done for selected line voltage with the PhaseShift setting.
When the function is set to OperationSC = Enabled, the measuring will start.
The function will compare the bus and line voltage values with the set values for
VHighBusSC and VHighLineSC.
If both sides are higher than the set values, the measured values are compared with the set
values for acceptable frequency, phase angle and voltage difference: FreqDiffA,
FreqDiffM, PhaseDiffA, PhaseDiffM and VDiffSC. If additional phase angle adjustment
is done with the PhaseShift setting, the adjustment factor is deducted from the line voltage
before the comparison of the phase angle values.
The frequency on both sides of the circuit breaker is also measured. The frequencies must
not deviate from the rated frequency more than +/-5Hz. The frequency difference between
the bus frequency and the line frequency is measured and may not exceed the set value
FreqDiff.
Two sets of settings for frequency difference and phase angle difference are available and
used for the manual closing and autoreclose functions respectively, as required.
The inputs BLOCK and BLKSC are available for total block of the complete SESRSYN
(25) function and selective block of the Synchronism check function respectively. Input
TSTSC will allow testing of the function where the fulfilled conditions are connected to
a separate test output.
The outputs MANSYOK and AUTOSYOK are activated when the actual measured
conditions match the set conditions for the respective output. The output signal can be
delayed independently for MANSYOK and AUTOSYOK conditions.
Output INADVCLS, inadvertent circuit breaker closing, indicates that the circuit breaker
has been closed at wrong phase angle by mistake. The output is activated, if the voltage
conditions are fulfilled at the same time the phase angle difference between bus and line
is suddenly changed from being larger than 60 degrees to smaller than 5 degrees.

Synchronizing
When the function is set to OperationSynch = Enabled the measuring will be performed.
The function will compare the values for the bus and line voltage with the set values for
VHighBusSynch and VHighLineSynch, which is a supervision that the voltages are both
live. Also the voltage difference is checked to be smaller than the set value for
VDiffSynch, which is a p.u value of set voltage base values. If both sides are higher than
the set values and the voltage difference between bus and line is acceptable, the measured
values are compared with the set values for acceptable frequency FreqDiffMax and
FreqDiffMin, rate of change of frequency FreqRateChange and phase angle, which has to
be smaller than the internally preset value of 15 degrees.
Measured frequencies between the settings for the maximum and minimum frequency
will initiate the measuring and the evaluation of the angle change to allow operation to be
sent in the right moment including the set tBreaker time. There is a phase angle release
internally to block any incorrect closing pulses. At operation the SYNOK output will be
activated with a pulse tClosePulse and the function resets. The function will also reset if
the synchronizing conditions are not fulfilled within the set tMaxSynch time. This
prevents that the function is, by mistake, maintained in operation for a long time, waiting
for conditions to be fulfilled.
The inputs BLOCK and BLKSYNCH are available for total block of the complete
SESRSYN function and block of the Synchronizing function respectively. TSTSYNCH
will allow testing of the function where the fulfilled conditions are connected to a separate
output.

Energizing check
Voltage values are measured in the IED and are available for evaluation by the
Synchronism check function.
The function 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 VLiveBusEnerg and
VDeadBusEnerg for bus energizing and VLiveLineEnerg and VDeadLineEnerg for line
energizing.
The frequency on both sides of the circuit breaker is also measured. The frequencies must
not deviate from the rated frequency more than +/-5Hz.
The Energizing direction can be selected individually for the Manual and the Automatic
functions respectively. When the conditions are met the outputs AUTOENOK and
MANENOK respectively will be activated if the fuse supervision conditions are fulfilled.
The output signal can be delayed independently for MANENOK and AUTOENOK
conditions. The Energizing direction can also be selected by an integer input AENMODE
respective MENMODE, which for example, can be connected to a Binary to Integer
function block (B16I). Integers supplied shall be 1=Off, 2=DLLB, 3=DBLL and 4= Both.
Not connected input will mean that the setting is done from Parameter Setting tool. The
active position can be read on outputs MODEAEN resp MODEMEN. The modes are
0=OFF, 1=DLLB, 2=DBLL and 3=Both.
The inputs BLOCK and BLKENERG are available for total block of the complete
SESRSYN (25) function respective block of the Energizing check function. TSTENERG
will allow testing of the function where the fulfilled conditions are connected to a separate
test output.

The VB1OK/VB2OK and VB1FF/VB2FF inputs are related to the busbar voltage and the
VLNOK and VLNFF inputs are related to the line voltage. Configure them to the binary
input or function outputs that indicate the status of the external fuse failure of the busbar
and line voltages. In the event of a fuse failure, the energizing check function is blocked.
The synchronism check function requires full voltage on both sides, thus no blocking at
fuse failure is needed.
Voltage selection
The voltage selection module including supervision of included voltage transformers for
the different arrangements is a basic part of the SESRSYN (25) function and determines
the voltages fed to the Synchronizing, Synchrocheck and Energizing check functions.
This includes the selection of the appropriate Line and Bus voltages and MCB
supervision.
The voltage selection type to be used is set with the parameter CBConfig.
If No voltage sel. is set the voltages used will be V-Line1 and V-Bus1. This setting is also
used in the case when external voltage selection is provided. Fuse failure supervision for
the used inputs must also be connected.
The voltage selection function, selected voltages, and fuse conditions are used for the
Synchronism check and Energizing check inputs.
For the disconnector positions it is advisable to use (NO) a and (NC) b type contacts to
supply Disconnector Open and Closed positions but, it is also possible to use an inverter
for one of the positions.
If breaker or disconnector positions not are available for deciding if energizing is allowed,
it is considered to be allowed to manually energize. This is only allowed for manual
energizing in breaker-and-a-half and Tie breaker arrangements. Manual energization of a
completely open diameter in 1 1/2 CB switchgear is allowed by internal logic.
The function checks the fuse-failure signals for bus 1, bus 2 and line voltage transformers.
Inputs VB1OK-VB1FF supervise the MCB for Bus 1 and VB2OK-VB2FF supervises the
MCB for Bus 2. VL1OK and VL1FF supervises the MCB for the Line voltage
transformer. The inputs fail (FF) or healthy (OK) can alternatively be used dependent on
the available signal. If a VT failure is detected in the selected voltage source an output
signal VSELFAIL is set. This output signal is true if the selected bus or line voltages have
a VT failure. This output as well as the function can be blocked with the input signal
BLOCK. The function logic diagram is shown in figure 161.

Figure 161: Logic diagram for the voltage selection function of a single circuit breaker with double busbars
With the setting parameter CBConfig the selection of actual CB location in the 1 1/2 circuit
breaker switchgear is done. The settings are: 1 1/2 Bus CB, 1 1/2 alt. Bus CB or Tie CB.
This voltage selection function uses the binary inputs from the disconnectors and circuit
breakers auxiliary contacts to select the right voltage for the SESRSYN function. For the
bus circuit breaker one side of the circuit breaker is connected to the busbar and the other
side is connected either to line 1, line 2 or the other busbar depending on the best selection
of voltage circuit.
the selected Line voltage as a reference to the fixed Bus 1 voltage, which indicates
B1SEL.
The tie circuit breaker is connected either to bus 1 or line 1 voltage on one side and the
other side is connected either to bus 2 or line 2 voltage. Four different output combinations
are possible, bus to bus, bus to line, line to bus and line to line.
The function also checks the fuse-failure signals for bus 1, bus 2, line 1 and line 2. If a VT
failure is detected in the selected voltage an output signal VSELFAIL is set. This output
signal is true if the selected bus or line voltages have a MCB trip. This output as well as
the function can be blocked with the input signal BLOCK. The function block diagram for
the voltage selection of a bus circuit breaker is shown in figure 162 and for the tie circuit
breaker in figure 163.

The logic diagrams below illustrate the principles applicable in the understanding of the
functionality.
Operation of the automatic reclosing can be set to Off or On via the setting parameters and
through external control. With the setting Operation = Enabled, the function is activated
while with the setting Operation = Disabled the function is deactivated. With the setting
Operation = Enabled and ExternalCtrl = On , the activation/deactivation is made by input
signal pulses to the inputs ON/OFF, for example, from a control system.
When the function is set Enabled and is operative the output SETON is activated (high).
If the input conditions 52a and CBREADY also are fulfilled, the automatic recloser is
prepared to start the reclosing cycle and the output signal READY on the SMBRREC (79)
function block is activated (high).
The Auto-reclosing mode is selected with setting ARMode = 3phase, 1/2/3ph, 1/2ph, 1ph
+1*2ph, 1/2ph+1*3ph, 1ph+1*2/3ph.
As an alternative to setting the mode can be selected by connecting an integer, for example
from function block B16I to input MODEINT.
When a valid integer is connected to the input MODEINT the selected ARMode setting
will be invalid and the MODEINT input value will be used instead. The selected mode is
reported as an integer on the output MODE.
The usual way to initiate a reclosing cycle, or sequence, is to initiate it when a selective
line protection tripping has occurred, by applying a signal to the RI input. It should be
necessary to adjust three-phase auto-reclosing open time, (dead time) for different power
system configurations or during tripping at different protection stages. The input RI_HS
(reclose initiation of high-speed reclosing) can also be used.
To start a new auto-reclosing cycle, a number of conditions of input signals need to be met.
The inputs are:
• CBREADY: CB ready for a reclosing cycle, for example, charged operating gear
• 52a: to ensure that the CB was closed when the line fault occurred and initiation was
applied
• No BLKON or INHIBIT signal shall be present.
After the initiate has been accepted, it is latched in and an internal signal “Started” is set.
It can be interrupted by a signal to the INHIBIT input.
To initiate auto-reclosing by CB position Open instead of from protection trip signals, one
has to configure the CB Open position signal to inputs 52a and RI and set a parameter
StartByCBOpen = Enabled and CBAuxContType = NormClosed (normally closed, 52b).
One also has to configure and connect signals from manual trip commands to input
INHIBIT.
The logic for switching the auto-recloser Enabled/Disabled and the starting of the
reclosing is shown in figure 165. The following should be considered:

It is possible to use up to four different time settings for the first shot, and one extension
time. There are separate settings for single- , two- and three-phase auto-reclosing open
times, t1 1Ph, t1 2Ph, t1 3Ph. If only the RI input signal is applied, and an auto-reclosing
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 conjunction with the input RI,
the auto-reclosing open time for two-phase or three-phase reclosing is used. There is also
a separate time setting facility for three-phase high-speed auto-reclosing, t1 3PhHS
available for use when required. It is activated by input RI_HS.
An auto-reclosing open time extension delay, tExtended t1, can be added to the normal
shot 1 delay. It is intended to come into use if the communication channel for permissive
line protection is lost. In a case like this there can be a significant time difference in fault
clearance at the two line ends. A longer auto-reclosing open time can then be useful. This
extension time is controlled by setting parameter Extended t1 = Enabled and the input
PLCLOST.
In normal circumstances the trip command resets quickly due to fault clearing. The user
can set a maximum trip pulse duration tTrip. When trip signals are longer, the auto-
reclosing open time is extended by tExtended t1. If Extended t1 = Disabled, a long trip
signal interrupts the reclosing sequence in the same way as a signal to input INHIBIT.

sequence) this condition may not be fulfilled during the dead time and at the moment of
reclosure. The Open-Close-Open condition was however checked at the start of the
reclosing cycle and it is then likely that the CB is prepared for a Close-Open sequence.
The synchronism 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.
The reset timer defines a time from the issue of the reclosing command, after which the
reclosing function resets. Should a new trip occur during this time, it is treated as a
continuation of the first fault. The reset timer is started when the CB closing command is
given.

After the reclosing command the reset timer tReset starts running for the set time. If no
tripping occurs within this time, the auto-reclosing will reset.
Normally the signal UNSUCCL appears when a new trip and initiate is received after the
last reclosing shot has been made and the auto-reclosing function is blocked. The signal
resets once the reset time has elapsed. The “unsuccessful“ signal can also be made to
depend on CB position input. The parameter UnsucClByCBChk should then be set to

12.3.1 Functionality
The interlocking functionality blocks the possibility to operate high-voltage switching
devices, for instance when a disconnector is under load, in order to prevent material
damage and/or accidental human injury.
Each control IED has interlocking functions for different switchyard arrangements, each
handling the interlocking of one bay. The interlocking functionality in each IED is not
dependent on any central function. For the station-wide interlocking, the IEDs
communicate via the station bus or by using hard wired binary inputs/outputs.
The interlocking conditions depend on the circuit configuration and status of the system
at any given time.
After the selection and reservation of an apparatus, the function has complete data on the
status of all apparatuses in the switchyard that are affected by the selection. Other
operators cannot interfere with the reserved apparatus or the status of switching devices
that may affect it.
The open or closed positions of the HV apparatuses are inputs to software modules
distributed in the control IEDs. Each module contains the interlocking logic for a bay. The
interlocking logic in a module is different, depending on the bay function and the
switchyard arrangements, that is, double-breaker or breaker-and-a-half bays have
different modules. Specific interlocking conditions and connections between standard
interlocking modules are performed with an engineering tool. Bay-level interlocking
signals can include the following kind of information:
The interlocking module is connected to the surrounding functions within a bay as shown
in figure 176.

When invalid data such as intermediate position, loss of a control IED, or input board error
are used as conditions for the interlocking condition in a bay, a release for execution of the
function will not be given.
On the local HMI an override function exists, which can be used to bypass the interlocking
function in cases where not all the data required for the condition is valid.
status of the circuit breaker is irrelevant as far as the grounding switch operation is
concerned.
• Disconnectors cannot break power current or connect different voltage systems.
Disconnectors in series with a circuit breaker can only be operated if the circuit
breaker is open, or if the disconnectors operate in parallel with other closed
connections. Other disconnectors can be operated if one side is completely isolated,
or if the disconnectors operate in parallel to other closed connections, or if they are
grounding on both sides.
• Circuit breaker closing is only interlocked against running disconnectors in its bay or
additionally in a transformer bay against the disconnectors and grounding switch on
the other side of the transformer, if there is no disconnector between CB and
transformer.
• Circuit breaker opening is only interlocked in a bus-coupler bay, if a bus bar transfer
is in progress.
The interlocking conditions can be altered, to meet the customer specific requirements, by
adding configurable logic by means of the graphical configuration tool PCM600. The
inputs Qx_EXy on the interlocking modules are used to add these specific conditions.
The input signals EXDU_xx shall be set to true if there is no transmission error at the
transfer of information from other bays. Required signals with designations ending in TR
are intended for transfer to other bays.

Logical node for interlocking SCILO - 3
12.3.3.2 Functionality
The Logical node for interlocking SCILO(3) function is used to enable a switching
operation if the interlocking conditions permit. SCILO (3) function itself does not provide
any interlocking functionality. The interlocking conditions are generated in separate
function blocks containing the interlocking logic.

Name Type Default Description
POSOPEN BOOLEAN 0 Open position of switch device
POSCLOSE BOOLEAN 0 Closed position of switch device
OPEN_EN BOOLEAN 0 Open operation from interlocking logic is enabled
CLOSE_EN BOOLEAN 0 Close operation from interlocking logic is enabled
The function contains logic to enable the open and close commands respectively if the
interlocking conditions are fulfilled. That means also, if the switch has a defined end
position for example, open, then the appropriate enable signal (in this case EN_OPEN) is
false. The enable signals EN_OPEN and EN_CLOSE can be true at the same time only in
the intermediate and bad position state and if they are enabled by the interlocking function.
The position inputs come from the logical nodes Circuit breaker/Circuit switch (SXCBR/
SXSWI) and the enable signals come from the interlocking logic. The outputs are
connected to the logical node Switch controller (SCSWI). One instance per switching
device is needed.

12.4.1 Functionality
The apparatus control functions are used for control and supervision of circuit breakers,
disconnectors and grounding switches within a bay. Permission to trip is given after
evaluation of conditions from other functions such as interlocking, synchronism check,
operator place selection and external or internal blockings.
Normal security means that only the command is evaluated and the resulting position is
not supervised. Enhanced security means that the command is evaluated with an
additional supervision of the status value of the control object. The command sequence
with enhanced security is always terminated by a CommandTermination service primitive
and an AddCause telling if the command was successful or if something went wrong.
Control operation can be performed from the local HMI with authority control if so
defined.
Primary apparatuses such as breakers and disconnectors are controlled and supervised by
one function block (SCSWI) each. Because the number and type of signals used for the
control of a breaker respectively a disconnector are almost the same, the same function
block type is used to handle these two types of apparatuses.
The SCSWI function block is connected either to an SXCBR function block (for circuit
breakers) or to an SXSWI function block (for disconnectors and grounding switches). The
physical process in the switchyard is connected to these two function blocks via binary
inputs and outputs.
Four types of function blocks are available to cover most of the control and supervision
within the bay. These function blocks are interconnected to form a control function
reflecting the switchyard configuration. The total number used depends on the switchyard
configuration. These four types are:
The functions Local Remote (LOCREM) and Local Remote Control (LOCREMCTRL),
to handle the local/remote switch, and the functions Bay reserve (QCRSV) and
Reservation input (RESIN), for the reservation function, also belong to the apparatus
control function. The principles of operation, function blocks, input and output signals and
setting parameters for all these functions are described below.

The function sends information about the Permitted Source To Operate (PSTO) and
blocking conditions to other functions within the bay for example, switch control
functions and voltage control functions. The functionality of the Bay control (QCBAY)
function is mainly described by the LLN0 node in the IEC61850-8-1 edition 2 standard,
applied to one bay. In IEC61850 edition 1 the functionality is not described by the LLN0
node or any other node, therefore the Bay control function is represented as a vendor
specific node in edition 1.
When the local panel switch (or LHMI selection, depending on the set source to select this)
is in Off position, all commands from remote and local level will be ignored. If the position
for the local/remote switch is not valid the PSTO output will always be set to faulty state
(3), which means no possibility to operate.
To adapt the signals from the local HMI or from an external local/remote switch, the
function blocks LOCREM and LOCREMCTRL are needed and connected to QCBAY.
If the parameter AllPSTOValid is set and LR-switch position is in Local or Remote state,
the PSTO value is set to 5 (all), that is, it is permitted to operate from both local and remote
level without any priority. When the external panel switch is in Off position the PSTO
value shows the actual state of the switch that is, 0. In this case it is not possible to control
anything
If the parameter RemoteIncStation is set and the LR-switch position is in Remote state, the
PSTO value is set to 2 (Station or Remote), that is, it is permitted to operate from both
station and remote level without any priority.

Blockings
The blocking states for position indications and commands are intended to provide the
possibility for the user to make common blockings for the functions configured within a
complete bay.
The blocking facilities provided by the bay control function are the following:
• Blocking of position indications, BL_UPD. This input will block all inputs related to
apparatus positions for all configured functions within the bay.
• Blocking of commands, BL_CMD. This input will block all commands for all
configured functions within the bay.
• Blocking of function, BLOCK. If the BLOCK signal is set, it means that the function
is active, but no outputs are generated, no reporting, control commands are rejected
and functional and configuration data is visible.
The switching of the Local/Remote switch requires at least system operator level. The
password will be requested at an attempt to operate if authority levels have been defined
in the IED. Otherwise the default authority level, SuperUser, can handle the control
without LogOn. The users and passwords are defined with the IED Users tool in PCM600.

Figure 204: Configuration for the local/remote handling for a local HMI with two bays
and two screen pages
If the IED contains control functions for several bays, the local/remote position can be
different for the included bays. When the local HMI is used the position of the local/
remote switch can be different depending on which single line diagram screen page that
is presented on the local HMI. The function block Local remote control (LOCREMCTRL)
controls the presentation of the LEDs for the local/remote position to applicable bay and
screen page.
The switching of the local/remote switch requires at least system operator level. The
password will be requested at an attempt to operate if authority levels have been defined
in the IED. Otherwise the default authority level, SuperUser, can handle the control
without LogOn. The users and passwords are defined with the IED Users tool in PCM600.

Control handling
.
Two types of control models can be used. The two control models are "direct with normal
security" and "SBO (Select-Before-Operate) with enhanced security". The parameter
CtlModel defines which one of the two control models is used. The control model "direct
with normal security" does not require a select whereas, the "SBO with enhanced security"
command model requires a select before execution. The command sequence for a
command with control mode SBO with enhanced security is shown in figure 206, with
control mode direct with normal security is shown in figure 207.

Figure 207: Example of command sequence for a successful close command when
the control model direct with normal security is used
Normal security means that only the command is evaluated and the resulting position is
not supervised. Enhanced security means that the command sequence is supervised in
three steps, the selection, command evaluation and the supervision of position. Each step
ends up with a pulsed signal to indicate that the respective step in the command sequence
is finished. If an error occurs in one of the steps in the command sequence, the sequence
is terminated. The last error (L_CAUSE) can be read from the function block and used for
example at commissioning.
Evaluation of position
The position output from the switches (SXCBR or SXSWI) is connected to the switch
controller SCSWI. The XPOS1, XPOS2 and XPOS3 input signals receive the position,
time stamps and quality attributes of the position which is used for further evaluation.
In the case when there are three one-phase switches connected to the switch control
function, the switch control will "merge" the position of the three switches to the resulting
three-phase position. In the case when the position differ between the one-phase switches,
following principles will be applied:
The time stamp of the output three-phase position from switch control will have the time
stamp of the last changed phase when it reaches the end position. When it goes to
intermediate position or bad state, it will get the time stamp of the first changed phase.
In addition, there is also the possibility that one of the one-phase switches will change
position at any time due to a trip. Such situation is here called pole discrepancy and is
supervised by this function. In case of a pole discrepancy situation, that is, the positions
of the one-phase switches are not equal positions for a time longer than the setting
tPoleDiscord, an error signal POLEDISC will be set.
In the supervision phase, the switch controller function evaluates the "cause" values from
the switch modules Circuit breaker (SXCBR)/ Circuit switch (SXSWI). At error the
"cause" value with highest priority is shown.
Blocking principles
The blocking signals are normally coming from the bay control function (QCBAY) and
via the IEC 61850 communication from the operator place.
The different block conditions will only affect the operation of this
function, that is, no blocking signals will be "forwarded" to other
functions. The above blocking outputs are stored in a non-volatile
memory.

The Switch controller (SCSWI) function has timers for evaluating different time
supervision conditions. These timers are explained here.
The timer tSelect is used for supervising the time between the select and the execute
command signal, that is, the time the operator has to perform the command execution after
the selection of the object to operate.

reservation, that is, the time between reservation request and the feedback reservation
granted from all bays involved in the reservation function.

The parameter tSynchrocheck is used to define the maximum allowed time between the
execute command and the input SYNC_OK to become true. If SYNC_OK=true at the
time the execute command signal is received, the timer "tSynchrocheck" will not start.
The start signal for the synchronizing is obtained if the synchronism-check conditions are
not fulfilled.
The parameter tSynchronizing is used to define the maximum allowed time between the
start signal for synchronizing and the confirmation that synchronizing is in progress.

The Circuit breaker function (SXCBR) is used by other functions such as for example,
switch controller, protection functions, autorecloser function or an IEC 61850 client
residing in another IED or the operator place. This switch function executes commands,
evaluates block conditions and evaluates different time supervision conditions. Only if all
conditions indicate a switch operation to be allowed, the function performs the execution
SXCBR has an operation counter for closing and opening commands. The counter value
can be read remotely from the operator place. The value is reset from local HMI, a binary
input or remotely from the operator place by configuring a signal from the Single Point
Generic Control 8 signals (SPC8GAPC) for example. The health of the external
equipment, the switch, can be monitored according to IEC61850-8-1. The operation
counter functionality and the external equipment health supervision are independent sub-
functions of the circuit breaker function.
Local/Remote switch
One binary input signal LR_SWI is included in SXCBR to indicate the local/remote
switch position from switchyard provided via the I/O board. If this signal is set to TRUE
it means that change of position is allowed only from switchyard level. If the signal is set
to FALSE it means that command from IED or higher level is permitted. When the signal
is set to TRUE all commands (for change of position) are rejected, even trip commands
from protection functions are rejected. The functionality of the local/remote switch is
described in Figure 214.
Local= Operation at
UE switch yard level

en05000096.vsd
IEC05000096 V1 EN
Blocking principles
SXCBR includes several blocking principles. The basic principle for all blocking signals
is that they will affect commands from all other clients for example, switch controller,
protection functions and autoreclosure.
• Block/deblock for open command. It is used to block operation for open command.
• Block/deblock for close command. It is used to block operation for close command.
• Update block/deblock of positions. It is used to block the updating of position values.
Other signals related to the position will be reset.
• Blocking of function, BLOCK. If BLOCK signal is set, it means that the function is
active, but no outputs are generated, no reporting, control commands are rejected and
functional and configuration data is visible.
Substitution
The substitution part in SXCBR is used for manual set of the position and quality of the
switch. The typical use of substitution is that an operator enters a manual value because
that the real process value is erroneous for some reason. SXCBR will then use the
manually entered value instead of the value for positions determined by the process.
Time diagrams
There are two timers for supervising of the execute phase, tStartMove and tIntermediate.
tStartMove supervises that the primary device starts moving after the execute output pulse
is sent. tIntermediate defines the maximum allowed time for intermediate position.
Figure 215 explains these two timers during the execute phase.

The timers tOpenPulse and tClosePulse are the length of the execute output pulses to be
sent to the primary equipment. Note that the output pulses for open and close command
can have different pulse lengths. The pulses can also be set to be adaptive with the
configuration parameter AdaptivePulse. Figure 216 shows the principle of the execute
output pulse. The AdaptivePulse parameter will have effect on both execute output pulses.

AdaptivePulse is set to true
• the timer tOpenPulse or tClosePulse has elapsed
• an error occurs due to the switch does not start moving, that is, tStartMove has
elapsed.
If the breaker reaches the final position before the execution pulse time
has elapsed, and AdaptivePulse is not true, the function waits for the end
of the execution pulse before telling the activating function that the
command is completed.
There is one exception from the first item above. If the primary device is in open position
and an open command is executed or if the primary device is in closed position and a close
command is executed. In these cases, with the additional condition that the configuration
parameter AdaptivePulse is true, the execute output pulse is always activated and resets
when tStartMove has elapsed. If the configuration parameter AdaptivePulse is set to false
the execution output remains active until the pulse duration timer has elapsed.

The users of the Circuit switch (SXSWI) are other functions such as for example, switch
controller, protection functions, autorecloser function, or a 61850 client residing in
another IED or the operator place. SXSWI executes commands, evaluates block
conditions and evaluates different time supervision conditions. Only if all conditions
indicate a switch operation to be allowed, SXSWI performs the execution command. In
case of erroneous conditions, the function indicates an appropriate "cause" value, see
Table 401.
SXSWI has an operation counter for closing and opening commands. The counter value
can be read remotely from the operator place. The value is reset from a binary input or
remotely from the operator place by configuring a signal from the Single Point Generic
Control 8 signals (SPC8GAPC), for example.
Also, the health of the external equipment, the switch, can be monitored according to
IEC61850-8-1.
Local/Remote switch
One binary input signal LR_SWI is included in SXSWI to indicate the local/remote switch
position from switchyard provided via the I/O board. If this signal is set to TRUE it means
that change of position is allowed only from switchyard level. If the signal is set to FALSE
it means that command from IED or higher level is permitted. When the signal is set to
TRUE all commands (for change of position) from internal IED clients are rejected, even
trip commands from protection functions are rejected. The functionality of the local/
remote switch is described in Figure 219.

The Bay reserve (QCRSV) function handles the reservation. QCRSV function starts to
operate in two ways. It starts when there is a request for reservation of the own bay or if
there is a request for reservation from another bay. It is only possible to reserve the
function if it is not currently reserved. The signal that can reserve the own bay is the input
signal RES_RQx (x=1-8) coming from switch controller (SCWI). The signals for request
from another bay are the outputs RE_RQ_B and V_RE_RQ from function block RESIN.
These signals are included in signal EXCH_OUT from RESIN and are connected to
RES_DATA in QCRSV.
The parameters ParamRequestx (x=1-8) are chosen at reservation of the own bay only
(TRUE) or other bays (FALSE). To reserve the own bay only means that no reservation
request RES_BAYS is created.
If the RESERVED output is not set, the selection is made with the output RES_GRTx
(where x=1-8 is the number of the requesting apparatus), which is connected to switch
controller SCSWI. If the bay already is reserved the command sequence will be reset and
the SCSWI will set the attribute "1-of-n-control" in the "cause" signal.
When it receives acknowledge from the bays via the input RES_DATA, it sets the output
RES_GRTx (where x=1-8 is the number of the requesting apparatus). If not
acknowledgement from all bays is received within a certain time defined in SCSWI
(tResResponse), the SCSWI will reset the reservation and set the attribute "1-of-n-control"
in the "cause" signal.
The reservation function can also be overridden in the own bay with the OVERRIDE input
signal, that is, reserving the own bay without waiting for the external acknowledge.
If there are more than eight apparatuses in the bay there has to be one additional QCRSV.
The two QCRSV functions have to communicate and this is done through the input
EXCH_IN and EXCH_OUT according to Figure 224. If more than one QCRSV are used,
the execution order is very important. The execution order must be in the way that the first
QCRSV has a lower number than the next one.

IPOS1 and IPOS2 inputs and distributed in the configuration through the POS1 and
POS2 outputs, or to IEC 61850 through reporting, or GOOSE.
• for commands that are received via the local HMI or IEC 61850 and distributed in the
configuration through outputs CMDPOS12 and CMDPOS21.
The output CMDPOS12 is set when the function receives a CLOSE command from
the local HMI when the SLD is displayed and the object is chosen.
The output CMDPOS21 is set when the function receives an OPEN command from
the local HMI when the SLD is displayed and the object is chosen.
The PSTO input is connected to the Local remote switch to have a selection of operators
place, operation from local HMI (Local) or through IEC 61850 (Remote). An INTONE
connection from Fixed signal function block (FXDSIGN) will allow operation from local
HMI.
As it can be seen, both indications and commands are done in double-bit representation,
where a combination of signals on both inputs/outputs generate the desired result.

inverted.
• GATE function block is used for whether or not a signal should be able to pass from
the input to the output.
• INVERTER function block that inverts one input signal to the output.
• LLD function block. Loop delay used to delay the output signal one execution cycle.
• OR function block. Each block has up to six inputs and two outputs where one is
inverted.
• PULSETIMER function block can be used, for example, for pulse extensions or
limiting of operation of outputs, settable pulse time.
• RSMEMORY function block is a flip-flop that can reset or set an output from two
inputs respectively. Each block has two outputs where one is inverted. The memory
setting controls if, after a power interruption, the flip-flop resets or returns to the state
it had before the power interruption. RESET input has priority.
• SRMEMORY function block is a flip-flop that can set or reset an output from two
inputs respectively. Each block has two outputs where one is inverted. The memory
setting controls if, after a power interruption, the flip-flop resets or returns to the state
it had before the power interruption. The SET input has priority.
• TIMERSET function has pick-up and drop-out delayed outputs related to the input
signal. The timer has a settable time delay.

INP INTEGER 0 Integer Input
OUTx represents a value when activated. The value of each of the OUTx is in accordance
with the table IB16_1. When not activated the OUTx has the value 0.
In the above example when integer 15 is on the input INP the OUT1 has a value =1, OUT2
has a value =2, OUT3 has a value =4 and OUT4 has a value =8. The sum of these OUTx
is equal to 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 = 15.
This follows the general formulae: The sum of the values of all OUTx = 2x-1 where
1≤x≤16 will be equal to the integer value on the input INP.
The Integer to Boolean 16 conversion function (IB16) will transfer an integer with a value
between 0 to 65535 connected to the input INP to a combination of activated outputs
OUTx where 1≤x≤16. The sum of the values of all OUTx will then be equal to the integer
on input INP. The values of the different OUTx are according to the table below. When an
OUTx is not activated, its value is 0.
When all OUTx where 1≤x≤16 are activated that is = Boolean 1 it corresponds to that
integer 65535 is connected to input INP. The IB16 function is designed for receiving the
integer input locally. If the BLOCK input is activated, it will freeze the logical outputs at
the last value.

Integer to boolean conversion with logic node representation function ITBGAPC is used
to transform an integer which is transmitted over IEC 61850 and received by the function
to 16 binary coded (logic) output signals.
ITBGAPC function can only receive remote values over IEC 61850 when the R/L
(Remote/Local) push button on the front HMI, indicates that the control mode for the
operator is in position R (Remote i.e. the LED adjacent to R is lit ), and the corresponding
signal is connected to the input PSTO ITBGAPC function block. The input BLOCK will
freeze the output at the last received value and blocks new integer values to be received
and converted to binary coded outputs.

The value of each OUTx for 1≤x≤16 (1≤x≤16) follows the general formulae: OUTx = 2x-1
The sum of the values of all activated OUTx = 2x-1 where 1≤x≤16 will be equal to the
integer value received over IEC61850 to the ITBGAPC_1 function block.
The ITBGAPC function is designed for receiving the integer input from a station
computer - for example, over IEC 61850. If the BLOCK input is activated, it will freeze
the logical outputs at the last value.

tAlarm and tWarning are user settable limits. They are also independent, that is, there is
no check if tAlarm > tWarning.
tAlarm and tWarning are possible to be defined with a resolution of 10 ms, depending on
the level of the defined values for the parameters.
The limit for the overflow supervision is fixed at 999999.9 seconds. The outputs freeze if

14.1.2 Functionality
Measurement functions are used for power system measurement, supervision and
reporting to the local HMI, monitoring tool within PCM600 or to station level for
example, via IEC 61850. The possibility to continuously monitor measured values of
active power, reactive power, currents, voltages, frequency, power factor etc. is vital for
efficient production, transmission and distribution of electrical energy. It provides to the
system operator fast and easy overview of the present status of the power system.
Additionally, it can be used during testing and commissioning of protection and control
IEDs in order to verify proper operation and connection of instrument transformers (CTs
and VTs). During normal service by periodic comparison of the measured value from the
IED with other independent meters the proper operation of the IED analog measurement
chain can be verified. Finally, it can be used to verify proper direction orientation for
distance or directional overcurrent protection function.
All measured values can be supervised with four settable limits that is, low-low limit, low
limit, high limit and high-high limit. A zero clamping reduction is also supported, that is,
the measured value below a settable limit is forced to zero which reduces the impact of
noise in the inputs.
Dead-band supervision can be used to report measured signal value to station level when
change in measured value is above set threshold limit or time integral of all changes since
the last time value updating exceeds the threshold limit. Measure value can also be based
on periodic reporting.
The measurement function, CVMMXN, provides the following power system quantities:
,
The measuring functions CMMXU, VMMXU and VNMMXU provide physical
quantities:
It is possible to calibrate the measuring function above to get better then class 0.5
presentation. This is accomplished by angle and magnitude compensation at 5, 30 and

14.1.5 Settings
The available setting parameters of the measurement function (MMXU, MSQI) are
depending on the actual hardware (TRM) and the logic configuration made in PCM600.
These six functions are not handled as a group, so parameter settings are only available in
the first setting group.
The following terms are used in the Unit and Description columns:
• VBase: Base voltage in primary kV. This voltage is used as reference for voltage
setting. It can be suitable to set this parameter to the rated primary voltage supervised
object.
• IBase: Base current in primary A. This current is used as reference for current setting.
It can be suitable to set this parameter to the rated primary current of the supervised
object.
• SBase: Base setting for power values in MVA.
The protection, control, and monitoring IEDs have functionality to measure and further
process information for currents and voltages obtained from the pre-processing blocks.
The number of processed alternate measuring quantities depends on the type of IED and
built-in options.
The information on measured quantities is available for the user at different locations:
• Overfunction, when the measured current exceeds the High limit (XHiLim) or High-
high limit (XHiHiLim) pre-set values
• Underfunction, when the measured current decreases under the Low limit (XLowLim)
or Low-low limit (XLowLowLim) pre-set values.

Each analog output has one corresponding supervision level output (X_RANGE). The
output signal is an integer in the interval 0-4 (0: Normal, 1: High limit exceeded, 3: High-
high limit exceeded, 2: below Low limit and 4: below Low-low limit). The output may be
connected to a measurement expander block (XP (RANGE_XP)) to get measurement
supervision as binary signals.
The logical value of the functional output signals changes according to figure 267.
The user can set the hysteresis (XLimHyst), which determines the difference between the
operating and reset value at each operating point, in wide range for each measuring
channel separately. The hysteresis is common for all operating values within one channel.
Cyclic reporting
The cyclic reporting of measured value is performed according to chosen setting
(XRepTyp). The measuring channel reports the value independent of magnitude or
integral dead-band reporting.
In addition to the normal cyclic reporting the IED also report spontaneously when
measured value passes any of the defined threshold limits.

After the new value is reported, the ±ΔY limits for dead-band are automatically set around
it. The new value is reported only if the measured quantity changes more than defined by
the ±ΔY set limits.
The last value reported, Y1 in figure 270 serves as a basic value for further measurement.
A difference is calculated between the last reported and the newly measured value and is
multiplied by the time increment (discrete integral). The absolute values of these integral
values are added until the pre-set value is exceeded. This occurs with the value Y2 that is
reported and set as a new base for the following measurements (as well as for the values
Y3, Y4 and Y5).
The integral dead-band supervision is particularly suitable for monitoring signals with
small variations that can last for relatively long periods.

Additionally to the power factor value the two binary output signals from the function are
provided which indicates the angular relationship between current and voltage phasors.
Binary output signal ILAG is set to one when current phasor is lagging behind voltage
phasor. Binary output signal ILEAD is set to one when current phasor is leading the
voltage phasor.
Each analog output has a corresponding supervision level output (X_RANGE). The
output signal is an integer in the interval 0-4, see section "Measurement supervision".

magnitude and angle compensation will be used for related input signals.

EQUATION1407 V1 EN (Equation 90)
where:
X is a new measured value (that is P, Q, S, V, I or PF) to be given out from the function
XOld is the measured value given from the measurement function in previous execution cycle
k is settable parameter by the end user which influence the filter properties
Default value for parameter k is 0.00. With this value the new calculated value is
immediately given out without any filtering (that is, without any additional delay). When k
is set to value bigger than 0, the filtering is enabled. Appropriate value of k shall be
determined separately for every application. Some typical value for k =0.14.
Compensation facility
In order to compensate for small magnitude and angular errors in the complete
measurement chain (CT error, VT error, IED input transformer errors and so on.) it is
possible to perform on site calibration of the power measurement. This is achieved by
setting the complex constant which is then internally used within the function to multiply
the calculated complex apparent power S. This constant is set as magnitude (setting
parameter PowMagFact, default value 1.000) and angle (setting parameter
PowAngComp, default value 0.0 degrees). Default values for these two parameters are
done in such way that they do not influence internally calculated value (complex constant
has default value 1). In this way calibration, for specific operating range (for example,
around rated power) can be done at site. However, to perform this calibration it is
necessary to have an external power meter with high accuracy class available.
Directionality
If CT grounding parameter is set as described in section "Analog inputs", active and
reactive power will be measured always towards the protected object. This is shown in the
following figure 272.
Busbar
52
IED
P Q
Protected
Object
ANSI05000373_2_en.vsd
ANSI05000373 V2 EN
Practically, it means that active and reactive power will have positive values when they
flow from the busbar towards the protected object and they will have negative values when
they flow from the protected object towards the busbar.
In some application, for example, when power is measured on the secondary side of the
power transformer it might be desirable, from the end client point of view, to have actually
opposite directional convention for active and reactive power measurements. This can be
easily achieved by setting parameter PowAngComp to value of 180.0 degrees. With such
setting the active and reactive power will have positive values when they flow from the
protected object towards the busbar.
Frequency
Frequency is actually not calculated within measurement block. It is simply obtained from
the pre-processing block and then just given out from the measurement block as an output.
of rated current. The compensation below 5% and above 100% is constant and linear in
between, see figure 271.
Phase currents (magnitude and angle) are available on the outputs and each magnitude
output has a corresponding supervision level output (Ix_RANGE). The supervision
output signal is an integer in the interval 0-4, see section "Measurement supervision".
The voltage function must be connected to three-phase voltage input in the configuration
tool to be operable. Voltages are handled in the same way as currents when it comes to
class 0.5 calibrations, see above.
The voltages (phase or phase-phase voltage, magnitude and angle) are available on the
outputs and each magnitude output has a corresponding supervision level output
(Vxy_RANG). The supervision output signal is an integer in the interval 0-4, see section
"Measurement supervision".
Positive, negative and three times zero sequence quantities are available on the outputs
(voltage and current, magnitude and angle). Each magnitude output has a corresponding
supervision level output (X_RANGE). The output signal is an integer in the interval 0-4,

There may be sudden change in pressure of the gas for a very small time, for which the
function need not to initiate any alarm. That is why two time delays tPressureAlarm or
tPressureLO have been included. If the pressure goes below the settings for more than
these time delays, then only the corresponding alarm PRES_ALM or lockout PRES_LO

There is a time difference t1 between the pickup of the main contact opening and the
opening of the POSCLOSE auxiliary contact. Similarly, there is a time difference t2
between the time when the POSOPEN auxiliary contact opens and the main contact is
completely open. Therefore, a correction factor needs to be added to get the actual opening
time. This factor is added with the OpenTimeCorr (t1+t2) setting. The closing time is
calculated by adding the value set with the CloseTimeCorr (t3+t4) setting to the measured
closing time.
The last measured opening travel time (TTRVOP) and the closing travel time (TTRVCL)
are given as service values.
The values can be reset using the Clear menu on the LHMI or by activation the input
RSTCBWR.
It is also possible to block the TRVTCLAL and TRVTOPAL alarm signals by activating the
BLKALM input.

The Remaining life of circuit breaker subfunction is used to give an indication on the wear
and tear of the circuit breaker. Every time the breaker operates, the life of the circuit
breaker reduces due to wear. The breaker wear depends on the interrupted current. The
remaining life of the breaker is estimated from the circuit breaker trip curve provided by
the manufacturer. The remaining life is decreased by at least one when the circuit breaker
is opened. The operation of the remaining life of circuit breaker subfunction is described

The ContTrCorr setting is used to determine the accumulated energy in relation to the time
the main contact opens. If the setting is positive, the calculation of energy starts after the
auxiliary contact has opened and the delay equal to the value of the ContTrCorr setting has
passed. When the setting is negative, the calculation starts in advance by the correction

Each EVENT function has 16 inputs INPUT1 - INPUT16. Each input can be given a name
from the Application Configuration tool. The inputs are normally used to create single
events, but are also intended for double indication events.
EVENT function also has an input BLOCK to block the generation of events.
The events that are sent from the IED can originate from both internal logical signals and
binary input channels. The internal signals are time-tagged in the main processing
module, while the binary input channels are time-tagged directly on the input module. The
time-tagging of the events that are originated from internal logical signals have a
resolution corresponding to the execution cycle-time of the source application. The time-
tagging of the events that are originated from binary input signals have a resolution of 1
ms.
The outputs from EVENT function are formed by the reading of status, events and alarms
by the station level on every single input. The user-defined name for each input is intended
to be used by the station level.
All events according to the event mask are stored in a buffer, which contains up to 1000
events. If new events appear before the oldest event in the buffer is read, the oldest event
is overwritten and an overflow alarm appears.
The events are produced according to the set-event masks. The event masks are treated
commonly for both the LON and SPA communication. The EventMask can be set
individually for each input channel. These settings are available:
• NoEvents
• OnSet
• OnReset
• OnChange
• AutoDetect
It is possible to define which part of EVENT function generates the events. This can be
performed individually for the SPAChannelMask and LONChannelMask respectively.
For each communication type these settings are available:
• Disabled
• Channel 1-8
• Channel 9-16
• Channel 1-16
For LON communication the events normally are sent to station level at change. It is
possibly also to set a time for cyclic sending of the events individually for each input
channel.
To protect the SA system from signals with a high change rate that can easily saturate the
event system or the communication subsystems behind it, a quota limiter is implemented.
If an input creates events at a rate that completely consume the granted quota then further
events from the channel will be blocked. This block will be removed when the input calms
down and the accumulated quota reach 66% of the maximum burst quota. The maximum
burst quota per input channel is 45 events per second.

14.6.2 Functionality
Complete and reliable information about disturbances in the primary and/or in the
secondary system together with continuous event-logging is accomplished by the
disturbance report functionality.
Disturbance report DRPRDRE, always included in the IED, acquires sampled data of all
selected analog input and binary signals connected to the function block with a, maximum
of 40 analog and 96 binary signals.
• Sequential of events
• Indications
• Event recorder
• Trip value recorder
• Disturbance recorder
Every disturbance report recording is saved in the IED in the standard Comtrade format
as a reader file HDR, a configuration file CFG, and a data file DAT. The same applies to
all events, which are continuously saved in a ring-buffer. The local HMI is used to get
information about the recordings. The disturbance report files may be uploaded to
PCM600 for further analysis using the disturbance handling tool.

Figure 292 shows the relations between Disturbance Report, included functions and
function blocks. Sequential of events (SOE), Event recorder (ER) and Indications (IND)
uses information from the binary input function blocks (BxRBDR). Trip value recorder
(TVR) uses analog information from the analog input function blocks (AxRADR).
Disturbance recorder DRPRDRE acquires information from both AxRADR and
BxRBDR.

The whole disturbance report can contain information for a number of recordings, each
with the data coming from all the parts mentioned above. The sequential of events
function is working continuously, independent of disturbance triggering, recording time,
and so on. All information in the disturbance report is stored in non-volatile flash
memories. This implies that no information is lost in case of loss of auxiliary power. Each
report will get an identification number in the interval from 0-999.

The IED flash disk should NOT be used to store any user files. This might
cause disturbance recordings to be deleted due to lack of disk space.
Disturbance information
Date and time of the disturbance, the indications, events, fault location and the trip values
are available on the local HMI. To acquire a complete disturbance report the user must use
a PC and - either the PCM600 Disturbance handling tool - or a FTP or MMS (over 61850)
client. The PC can be connected to the IED front, rear or remotely via the station bus
(Ethernet ports).
Indications (IND)
Indications is a list of signals that were activated during the total recording time of the
disturbance (not time-tagged).
Time tagging
The IED has a built-in real-time calendar and clock. This function is used for all time
tagging within the disturbance report
Recording times
Disturbance report DRPRDRE records information about a disturbance during a settable
time frame. The recording times are valid for the whole disturbance report. Disturbance
recorder (DR), event recorder (ER) and indication function register disturbance data and
events during tRecording, the total recording time.

tFault, 2 Fault time of the recording. The fault time cannot be set. It continues as long as any valid
trigger condition, binary or analog, persists (unless limited by TimeLimit the limit time).
PostFaultRecT, 3 Post fault recording time. The time the disturbance recording continues after all activated
triggers are reset. Use the setting PostFaultRecT to set this time.
TimeLimit Limit time. The maximum allowed recording time after the disturbance recording was
triggered. The limit time is used to eliminate the consequences of a trigger that does not
reset within a reasonable time interval. It limits the maximum recording time of a recording
and prevents subsequent overwriting of already stored disturbances. Use the setting
TimeLimit to set this time.
Analog signals
Up to 40 analog signals can be selected for recording by the Disturbance recorder and
triggering of the Disturbance report function. Out of these 40, 30 are reserved for external
analog signals from analog input modules (TRM) and line data communication module
(LDCM) via preprocessing function blocks (SMAI) and summation block (3PHSUM).
The last 10 channels may be connected to internally calculated analog signals available as
function block output signals (mA input signals, phase differential currents, bias currents
and so on).

ANSI10000029 V1 EN
The external input signals will be acquired, filtered and skewed and (after configuration)
available as an input signal on the AxRADR function block via the SMAI function block.
The information is saved at the Disturbance report base sampling rate (1000 or 1200 Hz).
Internally calculated signals are updated according to the cycle time of the specific
function. If a function is running at lower speed than the base sampling rate, Disturbance
recorder will use the latest updated sample until a new updated sample is available.
If the IED is preconfigured the only tool needed for analog configuration of the
Disturbance report is the Signal Matrix Tool (SMT, external signal configuration). In case
of modification of a preconfigured IED or general internal configuration the Application
Configuration tool within PCM600 is used.
The preprocessor function block (SMAI) calculates the residual quantities in cases where
only the three phases are connected (AI4-input not used). SMAI makes the information
available as a group signal output, phase outputs and calculated residual output (AIN-
output). In situations where AI4-input is used as an input signal the corresponding
information is available on the non-calculated output (AI4) on the SMAI function block.
Connect the signals to the AxRADR accordingly.
For each of the analog signals, Operation = Enabled means that it is recorded by the
disturbance recorder. The trigger is independent of the setting of Operation, and triggers
even if operation is set to Disabled. Both undervoltage and overvoltage can be used as
trigger conditions. The same applies for the current signals.
If Operation = Enabled, waveform (samples) will also be recorded and reported in graph.
The analog signals are presented only in the disturbance recording, but they affect the
entire disturbance report when being used as triggers.
Binary signals
Up to 352 binary signals can be selected to be handled by disturbance report. The signals
can be selected from internal logical and binary input signals. A binary signal is selected
to be recorded when:
Each of the 352 signals can be selected as a trigger of the disturbance report (Operation =
Operation—>TrigDR =Enabled). A binary signal can be selected to activate the red LED
on the local HMI (SetLED = Enabled).
The selected signals are presented in the event recorder, sequential of events and the
disturbance recording. But they affect the whole disturbance report when they are used as
triggers. The indications are also selected from these 352 signals with local HMI
IndicationMask = Show/Hide.
Trigger signals
The trigger conditions affect the entire disturbance report, except the sequential of events,
which runs continuously. As soon as at least one trigger condition is fulfilled, a complete
disturbance report is recorded. On the other hand, if no trigger condition is fulfilled, there
is no disturbance report, no indications, and so on. This implies the importance of
choosing the right signals as trigger conditions.
• Manual trigger
• Binary-signal trigger
• Analog-signal trigger (over/under function)
Manual trigger
A disturbance report can be manually triggered from the local HMI, PCM600 or via
station bus (IEC 61850). When the trigger is activated, the manual trigger signal is
generated. This feature is especially useful for testing. Refer to the operator's manual for
procedure.
Binary-signal trigger
Any binary signal state (logic one or a logic zero) can be selected to generate a trigger
(Triglevel = Trig on 0/Trig on 1). When a binary signal is selected to generate a trigger
from a logic zero, the selected signal will not be listed in the indications list of the
disturbance report.
Analog-signal trigger
All analog signals are available for trigger purposes, no matter if they are recorded in the
disturbance recorder or not. The settings are OverTrigOp, UnderTrigOp, OverTrigLe and
UnderTrigLe.
The check of the trigger condition is based on peak-to-peak values. When this is found, the
absolute average value of these two peak values is calculated. If the average value is above
the threshold level for an overvoltage or overcurrent trigger, this trigger is indicated with
a greater than (>) sign with the user-defined name.
If the average value is below the set threshold level for an undervoltage or undercurrent
trigger, this trigger is indicated with a less than (<) sign with its name. The procedure is
separately performed for each channel.
This method of checking the analog trigger conditions gives a function which is
insensitive to DC offset in the signal. The trip time for this initiation is typically in the
range of one cycle, 16 2/3 ms for a 60 Hz network.
All under/over trig signal information is available on the local HMI and PCM600.
Post Retrigger
Disturbance report function does not automatically respond to any new trig condition
during a recording, after all signals set as trigger signals have been reset. However, under
certain circumstances the fault condition may reoccur during the post-fault recording, for
instance by automatic reclosing to a still faulty power line.
When the retrig parameter is disabled (PostRetrig = Disabled), a new recording will not
pickup until the post-fault (PostFaultrecT or TimeLimit) period is terminated. If a new trig
occurs during the post-fault period and lasts longer than the proceeding recording a new
complete recording will be started.

The counter can be initialized to count from a settable non-zero value after reset of the
function. The function has also a maximum counted value check. The three possibilities
after reaching the maximum counted value are:
• Stops counting and activates a steady overflow indication for the next count
• Rolls over to zero and activates a steady overflow indication for the next count
• Rolls over to zero and activates a pulsed overflow indication for the next count
The pulsed overflow output lasts up to the first count after rolling over to zero, as
illustrated in figure 301.
Overflow indication

IEC12000626_1_en.vsd
IEC12000626 V1 EN
The Error output is activated as an indicator of setting the counter limits and/or initial
value setting(s) greater than the maximum value. The counter stops counting the input and
all the outputs except the error output remains at zero state. The error condition remains
until the correct settings for counter limits and/or initial value setting(s) are applied.
The function can be blocked through a block input. During the block time, input is not
counted and outputs remain in their previous states. However, the counter can be
initialized after reset of the function. In this case the outputs remain in their initial states
until the release of the block input.
14.9.3.2 Reporting
Reset of the counter can be performed from the local HMI or via a binary input.
Reading of content and resetting of the function can also be performed remotely, for
example from a IEC 61850 client. The value can also be presented as a measurement on
the local HMI graphical display.

The ACC_HOUR output represents the accumulated time in hours and the ACC_DAY
output represents the accumulated time in days.
tAlarm and tWarning are user settable time limit parameters in hours. They are also
independent of each other, that is, there is no check if tAlarm > tWarning.
tAlarm, tWarning and tAddToTime are possible to be defined with a resolution of 0.1 hours
(6 minutes).
The limit for the overflow supervision is fixed at 99999.9 hours. The outputs will reset and
the accumulated time will reset and pickup from zero if an overflow occurs.
Consequently in case of a power failure, there is a risk of losing the difference in time
between actual time and last time stored in the non-volatile memory.

15.1.2 Functionality
Pulse-counter logic (PCFCNT) function counts externally generated binary pulses, for
instance pulses coming from an external energy meter, for calculation of energy
consumption values. The pulses are captured by the binary input module and then read by
the PCFCNT function. A scaled service value is available over the station bus. The special
Binary input module with enhanced pulse counting capabilities must be ordered to
achieve this functionality.

tReporting 0 - 3600 s 1 60 Cycle time for reporting of counter value
The reporting time period can be set in the range from 1 second to 60 minutes and is
synchronized with absolute system time. Interrogation of additional pulse counter values
can be done with a command (intermediate reading) for a single counter. All active
counters can also be read by the LON General Interrogation command (GI) or IEC 61850.
The reported value to station HMI over the station bus contains Identity, Scaled Value
(pulse count x scale), Time, and Pulse Counter Quality. The Pulse Counter Quality
consists of:
The transmission of the counter value by SPA can be done as a service value, that is, the
value frozen in the last integration cycle is read by the station HMI from the database.
PCFCNT updates the value in the database when an integration cycle is finished and
activates the NEW_VAL signal in the function block. This signal can be connected to an
Event function block, be time tagged, and transmitted to the station HMI. This time
corresponds to the time when the value was frozen by the function.
The pulse-counter logic function requires a binary input card, BIMp, that
is specially adapted to the pulse-counter logic function.
Figure 307 shows the pulse-counter logic function block with connections of the inputs
and outputs.
The BLOCK and READ_VAL inputs can be connected to Single Command logics, which
are intended to be controlled either from the station HMI or/and the local HMI. As long as
the BLOCK signal is set, the pulse counter is blocked. The signal connected to
READ_VAL performs one additional reading per positive flank. The signal must be a
pulse with a length >1 second.
The BI_PULSE input is connected to the used input of the function block for the Binary
Input Module (BIM).
Each pulse-counter logic function block has four binary output signals that can be
connected to an Event function block for event recording: INVALID, RESTART,
BLOCKED and NEW_VAL. The SCAL_VAL signal can be connected to the IEC Event
function block.
The INVALID signal is a steady signal and is set if the Binary Input Module, where the
pulse counter input is located, fails or has wrong configuration.
The RESTART signal is a steady signal and is set when the reported value does not
comprise a complete integration cycle. That is, in the first message after IED pickup, in the
first message after deblocking, and after the counter has wrapped around during last
integration cycle.
The BLOCKED signal is a steady signal and is set when the counter is blocked. There are
two reasons why the counter is blocked:
The NEW_VAL signal is a pulse signal. The signal is set if the counter value was updated
since last report.
The SCAL_VAL signal consists of scaled value (according to parameter Scale), time and
status information.

Function for energy calculation and ETPMMTR W_Varh -
demand handling
15.2.2 Functionality
Measurements function block (CVMMXN) can be used to measure active as well as
reactive power values. Function for energy calculation and demand handling
(ETPMMTR) uses measured active and reactive power as input and calculates the
accumulated active and reactive energy pulses, in forward and reverse direction. Energy
values can be read or generated as pulses. Maximum demand power values are also
calculated by the function. This function includes zero point clamping to remove noise
from the input signal. As output of this function: periodic energy calculations, integration
of energy values, calculation of energy pulses, alarm signals for limit violation of energy
values and maximum power demand, can be found.
The values of active and reactive energies are calculated from the input power values by
integrating them over a selected time tEnergy. The integration of active and reactive
energy values will happen in both forward and reverse directions. These energy values are
available as output signals and also as pulse outputs. Integration of energy values can be
controlled by inputs (STARTACC and STOPACC) and EnaAcc setting and it can be reset
to initial values with RSTACC input.
The maximum demand for active and reactive powers are calculated for the set time
interval tEnergy and these values are updated every minute through output channels. The
active and reactive maximum power demand values are calculated for both forward and
reverse direction and these values can be reset with RSTDMD input.

16.5.1 Functionality
An optical network can be used within the substation automation system. This enables
communication with the IED through the LON bus from the operator’s workplace, from
the control center and also from other terminals.
In this document the most common addresses for commands and events are available. For
other addresses, refer to section "".
It is assumed that the reader is familiar with LON communication protocol in general.

The LON bus links the different parts of the protection and control system. The measured
values, status information, and event information are spontaneously sent to the higher-
level devices. The higher-level devices can read and write memorized values, setting
values, and other parameter data when required. The LON bus also enables the bay level
devices to communicate with each other to deliver, for example, interlocking information
among the terminals without the need of a bus master.
The LonTalk protocol supports two types of application layer objects: network variables
and explicit messages. Network variables are used to deliver short messages, such as
measuring values, status information, and interlocking/blocking signals. Explicit
messages are used to transfer longer pieces of information, such as events and explicit read
and write messages to access device data.
The benefits achieved from using the LON bus in protection and control systems include
direct communication among all terminals in the system and support for multi-master
implementations. The LON bus also has an open concept, so that the terminals can
communicate with external devices using the same standard of network variables.
LON protocol
Configuration of LON
LON network tool (LNT) is a multi-purpose tool for LonWorks network configuration.
All the functions required for setting up and configuring a LonWorks network, is easily
accessible on a single tool program.
Vertical communication
Vertical communication describes communication between the monitoring devices and
protection and control IEDs. This communication includes sending of changed process
data to monitoring devices as events and transfer of commands, parameter data and
disturbance recorder files. This communication is implemented using explicit messages.
Binary events
Binary events are generated in event function blocks EVENT:1 to EVENT:20 in the IEDs.
The event function blocks have predefined LON addresses. Table 659 shows the LON
addresses to the first input on the event function blocks. Addresses to the other inputs on
the event function block are consecutive after the first input. For example, input 15 on
event block EVENT:17 has the address 1280 + 14 (15-1) = 1294.
For double indications, only the first eight inputs 1–8 must be used. Inputs 9–16 can be
used for other types of events at the same event block.
Three event function blocks EVENT:1 to EVENT:3 running with a fast loop time (3 ms)
are available as basic in the IEDs.. The remaining event function blocks EVENT:4 to
EVENT:9 run with a loop time of 8 ms and EVENT:10 to EVENT:20 run with a loop time
of 100 ms. The event blocks are used to send binary signals, integers, real time values like
analogue data from measuring functions and mA input modules as well as pulse counter
signals.
The first LON address in every event function block is found in table 659
Table 659: LON adresses for Event functions
Function block First LON address in

Event masks
The event mask for each input can be set individually from Parameter Setting Tool (PST)
under: Settings/IED settings/ Monitoring / EventFunction or via parameter setting tool
(PST) as follows:
• No events
• OnSet, at pick-up of the signal
• OnReset, at drop-out of the signal
• OnChange, at both pick-up and drop-out of the signal
• AutoDetect, event system itself make the reporting decision, (reporting criteria for
integers has no semantic, prefer to be set by the user)
The following type of signals from application functions can be connected to the event
function block.
Single indication
Directly connected binary IO signal via binary input function block (SMBI) is always
reported on change, no changed detection is done in the event function block. Other
Boolean signals, for example a pickup or a trip signal from a protection function is event
masked in the event function block.
Double indications
Double indications can only be reported via switch-control (SCSWI) functions, the event
reporting is based on information from switch-control, no change detection is done in the
event function block.
Directly connected binary IO signal via binary input function block (SMBI) is not possible
to handle as double indication. Double indications can only be reported for the first 8
inputs on an event function block.
Analog value
All analog values are reported cyclic. The reporting interval is taken from the connected
function if there is a limit supervised signal, otherwise it is taken from the event function
block.
Command handling
Commands are transferred using transparent SPA-bus messages. The transparent SPA-
bus message is an explicit LON message, which contains an ASCII character message
following the coding rules of the SPA-bus protocol. The message is sent using explicit
messages with message code 41H and using acknowledged transport service.
Both the SPA-bus command messages (R or W) and the reply messages (D, A or N) are
sent using the same message code. It is mandatory that one device sends out only one SPA-
bus message at a time to one node and waits for the reply before sending the next message.
For commands from the operator workplace to the IED for apparatus control, That is, the
function blocks type SCSWI 1 to 30, SXCBR 1 to 18 and SXSWI 1 to 24; the SPA
addresses are according to table 660.
Horizontal communication
Network variables are used for communication between 500 and 670 series
IEDs.Network variables are used for communication between 500 and 650 series IEDs
The supported network variable type is SNVT_state (NV type 83). SNVT_state is used to

I/O modules
To read binary inputs, the SPA-addresses for the outputs of the I/O-module function block
are used, that is, the addresses for BI1 – BI16. For SPA addresses, refer to section Related
documents in Product Guide.
The signals can be individually controlled from the operator station, remote-control
gateway, or from the local HMI on the IED. For Single command, 3 signals function
block, SINGLECMD:1 to SINGLECMD:3, the address is for the first output. The other
outputs follow consecutively after the first one. For example, output 7 on the
SINGLECMD:2 function block has the 5O533 address.

Figure 323 shows an application example of how the user can, in a simplified way, connect
the command function via the configuration logic circuit in a protection IED for control
of a circuit breaker.
A pulse via the binary outputs of the IED normally performs this type of command control.
The SPA addresses to control the outputs OUT1 – OUT16 in SINGLECMD:1 are shown

The MODE input defines if the output signals from SINGLECMD:1 is off, steady or
setable pulse length signals. This is set in Parameter Setting Tool (PST) under: Main
Menu/Settings / IED Settings / Control / Commands / Single Command or via
Parameter Setting Tool (PST).
Event function
Event function is intended to send time-tagged events to the station level (for example,
operator workplace) over the station bus. The events are there presented in an event list.
The events can be created from both internal logical signals and binary input channels. All
the internal signals are time tagged in the main processing module, while the binary input
channels are time tagged directly on each I/O module. The events are produced according
to the set of event masks. The event masks are treated commonly for both the LON and
SPA channels. All events according to the event mask are stored in a buffer, which
contains up to 1000 events. If new events appear before the oldest event in the buffer is
read, the oldest event is overwritten and an overflow alarm appears.
Two special signals for event registration purposes are available in the IED, Terminal
Restarted (0E50) and Event buffer overflow (0E51).
The input parameters can be set individually from the Parameter Setting Tool (PST)
under: Main Menu/Settings / IED Settings / Monitoring / Event Function or via
parameter Setting Tool (PST) as follows:
• No events
• OnSet, at pick-up of the signal
• OnReset, at drop-out of the signal
• OnChange, at both pick-up and drop-out of the signal
• AutoDetect, event system itself make the reporting decision, (reporting criteria for
integers has no semantic, prefer to be set by the user)
The Status and event codes for the Event functions are found in table 667.

These values are only applicable if the Event mask is masked ≠ OFF.

The serial communication module (SLM) is a mezzanine module placed on the numeric
processing module (NUM) and is used for LON, SPA, IEC60870-5-103, or DNP
communication.
There are two types of IO connectors: 1) snap-in for plastic fibre cables and 2) ST/bayonet
for glass fibre cables. The SLM can be equipped with either type or a combination of both,
which is identified by a tag.
Connect the incoming optical fibre to the RX receiver input, and the outgoing optical fibre
to the TX transmitter output. Pay special attention to the instructions concerning handling
and connection of fibre cables.
For setting the transfer rate (baud rate) and slave number, please refer to the Application
Manual and Commissioning Manual respectively.
16.7.1 Introduction
IEC 60870-5-103 communication protocol is mainly used when a protection IED
communicates with a third party control or monitoring system. This system must have
software that can interpret the IEC 60870-5-103 communication messages.
16.7.2.1 Functionality
103MEAS is a function block that reports all valid measuring types depending on
connected signals.
The set of connected input will control which ASDUs (Application Service Data Units)
are generated.
• 9 Will be generated if at least IA is connected. IB, IC, VA, VB, VC, P, Q, F are
optional but there can be no holes.
• 3.4 Will be generated if IN and VN are present.
• 3.3 Will be generated if IB, VAB, P and Q present.
• 3.2 Will be generated if IB, VAB, and P or Q missing.
• 3.1 Will be generated if IB is present and IA is missing (otherwise I_B in 9).

I103FLTPROT is used for fault indications in monitor direction. Each input on the
function block is specific for a certain fault type and therefore must be connected to a
correspondent signal present in the configuration. For example: 68_TRGEN represents
the General Trip of the device, and therefore must be connected to the general trip signal
SMPPTRC_TRIP or equivalent.
The delay observed in the protocol is the time difference in between the signal that is
triggering the Disturbance Recorder and the respective configured signal to the IEC
60870-5-103 I103FLTPROT.

16.7.14 IED commands with position and select for IEC 60870-5-103
I103POSCMD
16.7.14.1 Functionality
The I103POSCMD is a transceiver function that monitors activity on its input signals and
interprets any state transition into commands then sent over an established IEC103 link.
Additionally, it listens for general interrogation (GI) requests, to which it will reply with
a GI response message with the current state of each connected input.
The Position input is a double-indication signal and is GI enabled. This means that any
state transition, i.e. to ON, OFF, intermediate and faulty, will be reported spontaneously.
However, the intermediate and faulty states may be suppressed by setting the "Report
Intermediate Position" to "Off". See the settings for RS485 and optical serial
communication for more information.
The Select input is a single-indication signal and is also GI enabled. State transitions to
ON and OFF are reported spontaneously.
When the Block input is ON, the function will ignore GI requests and cease all monitoring
activity. Consequently, no transitions will be detected.
The I103POSCMD is also equipped with two additional commands; Operate and Cancel.
These are hidden in ACT and respond only to the base INF +2 and +3 respectively. See
table below. The base INF (Information Number) parameter is an IEC 60870-5-103
identifier that associates a function in a 103 Master (such as Scada) with its equivalent in
the IED.

Measurands
Function blocks in monitor direction for input measurands. Typically connected to
monitoring function, for example to power measurement CVMMXN.
The IED reports all valid measuring types depending on connected signals.
Upper limit for measured currents, active/reactive-power is 2.4 times rated value.
Upper limit for measured voltages and frequency is 1.2 times rated value.
The upper limit is the maximum value that can be encoded into the ASDU (Application
Service Data Unit). Any value higher than this value will be tagged as OVERFLOW. The
factors 1.2 and 2.4 are taken from the 103 standard and require that a rated value to use as
base exists, and then use 1.2 or 2.4 times <rated> as maxVal. You can use 2.4 times rated as
maxVal, but as there is no way to propagate value to client, the use of a scale factor on
<rated> does not make much difference.
If the client has a hard-coded gain of 1.2 * <rated> then client-scaled-max ::=
1.2 times <maxVal>/1.2
Resolution is <maxVal> / 4095 and hence the lowest possible maxVal yields the best
accuracy.

Disturbance recordings
The following elements are used in the ASDUs (Application Service Data Units) defined
in the standard.
Analog signals, 40-channels: the channel number for each channel has to be specified.
Channels used in the public range are 1 to 8 and with:
Channel number used for the remaining 32 analog signals are numbers in the private range
64 to 95.
Binary signals, 96-channels: for each channel the user can specify a FUNCTION TYPE
and an INFORMATION NUMBER.
Disturbance upload
All analog and binary signals that are recorded with disturbance recorder can be reported
to the master. The last eight disturbances that are recorded are available for transfer to the
master. A successfully transferred disturbance (acknowledged by the master) will not be
reported to the master again.
When a new disturbance is recorded by the IED a list of available recorded disturbances
will be sent to the master, an updated list of available disturbances can be sent whenever
something has happened to disturbances in this list. For example, when a disturbance is
deleted (by other client, for example, SPA) or when a new disturbance has been recorded
or when the master has uploaded a disturbance.
Information sent in the disturbance upload is specified by the standard; however, some of
the information are adapted to information available in disturbance recorder in the IED
series.
This section describes all data that is not exactly as specified in the standard.
ASDU23
• Bit TP: the protection equipment has tripped during the fault
• Bit TM: the disturbance data are currently being transmitted
• Bit TEST: the disturbance data have been recorded during normal operation or test
mode.
• Bit OTEV: the disturbance data recording has been initiated by another event than
pick-up
The only information that is easily available is test-mode status. The other information is
always set (hard coded) to:
Another information element in ASDU23 is the FAN (fault number). According to the
standard this is a number that is incremented when a protection function takes action. FAN
is equal to disturbance number, which is incremented for each disturbance.
ASDU26 / ASDU31
When a disturbance has been selected by the master by sending ASDU24, the protection
equipment answers by sending ASDU26, which contains an information element named
NOF (number of grid faults). This number must indicate fault number in the power
system,that is, a fault in the power system with several trip and auto-reclosing has the same
NOF (while the FAN must be incremented). NOF is just as FAN, equal to disturbance
number.
The serial communication module (SLM) is used for SPA/IEC 60870-5-103/DNP and
LON communication. This module is a mezzanine module, and can be placed on the
Analog/Digital conversion module (ADM). The serial communication module can have
connectors for two plastic fibre cables (snap-in) or two glass fibre cables (ST, bayonet) or
a combination of plastic and glass fibre. Three different types are available depending on
type of fibre.
The incoming optical fibre is connected to the RX receiver input, and the outgoing optical
fibre to the TX transmitter output. When the fibre optic cables are laid out, pay special
attention to the instructions concerning the handling and connection of the optical fibres.
The module is identified with a number on the label on the module.
16.8.1 Functionality
GOOSE communication can be used for exchanging information between IEDs via the
IEC 61850-8-1 station communication bus. This is typically used for sending apparatus
position indications for interlocking or reservation signals for 1-of-n control. GOOSE can
also be used to exchange any boolean, integer, double point and analog measured values
between IEDs.

16.14.1 Functionality
The IED provides two function blocks enabling several IEDs to send and receive signals
via the interbay bus. The sending function block, MULTICMDSND, takes 16 binary
inputs. LON enables these to be transmitted to the equivalent receiving function block,
MULTICMDRCV, which has 16 binary outputs.
16.14.2 Design
16.14.2.1 General
The common behavior for all 16 outputs of the MULTICMDRCV is set to either of two
modes: Steady or Pulse.
• 1 = Steady: This mode simply forwards the received signals to the binary outputs.
• 2 = Pulse: When a received signal transitions from 0 (zero) to 1 (one), a pulse with a
duration of exactly one execution cycle is triggered on the corresponding binary
output. This means that no connected function block may have a cycle time that is
higher than the execution cycle time of the particular MULTICMDRCV instance.

command block of one or many MULTICMDSND function blocks. There are 60
instances of the MULTICMDRCV where the first 12 are fast (8 ms), and the others are
slow (100 ms). Additionally, the MULTICMDRCV has a supervision function, which
sets the output connector "VALID" to 0 (zero) if its block does not receive any data within
the time defined by tMaxCycleTime.

17.1.2 Functionality
The remote end data communication is used either for the transmission of current values
with a maximum of 8 binary signals in the line differential protection IED, or for the
transmission of only binary signals (up to 192) in the other IEDs. The binary signals are
freely configurable and can, thus, be used for any purpose, for example, communication
scheme related signals, transfer trip and/or other binary signals between IEDs.
Communication between two IEDs requires that each IED is equipped with a Line Data
Communication Module (LCDM). The LDCMs then act as interfaces to a 64 kbit/s
communication channel for duplex communication between the IEDs.

IEC01000134 V1 EN
The start and stop flags are the 0111 1110 sequence (7E hexadecimal), defined in the
HDLC standard. The CRC is designed according to the standard CRC16 definition. The
optional address field in the HDLC frame is not used instead a separate addressing is
included in the data field.
The address field is used for checking that the received message originates from the
correct equipment. There is always a risk that multiplexers occasionally mix the messages
up. Each terminal in the system is given a number. The terminal is then programmed to
accept messages from a specific terminal number. If the CRC function detects a faulty
message, the message is thrown away and not used in the evaluation.
When the communication is used for line differential purpose, the transmitted data
consists of three currents, clock information, trip-, block- and alarm-signals and eight
binary signals which can be used for any purpose. The three currents are represented as
sampled values.
When the communication is used exclusively for binary signals, the full data capacity of
the communication channel is used for the binary signal purpose which gives the capacity
of 192 signals.

18.1.2 Functionality
To safeguard the interests of our customers, both the IED and the tools that are accessing
the IED are protected, by means of authorization handling. The authorization handling of
the IED and the PCM600 is implemented at both access points to the IED:
The IED users can be created, deleted and edited with PCM600 IED user management
tool.
IEC12000202-2-en.vsd
IEC12000202 V2 EN
Ensure that the user logged on to the IED has the access required when
writing particular data to the IED from PCM600.
The IED users can be created, deleted and edited only with the IED User Management
within PCM600. The user can only LogOn or LogOff on the local HMI on the IED, there
are no users, groups or functions that can be defined on local HMI.
At delivery the default user is the SuperUser. No Log on is required to operate the IED
until a user has been created with the IED User Management..
Once a user is created and downloaded to the IED, that user can perform a Log on,
introducing the password assigned in the tool.
If there is no user created, an attempt to log on will display a message box: “No user
defined!”
If one user leaves the IED without logging off, then after the timeout (set in Main menu/
Settings/General Settings/HMI/Screen/Display Timeout) elapses, the IED returns to
Guest state, when only reading is possible. The display time out is set to 60 minutes at
delivery.
If there are one or more users created with the IED User Management and downloaded
into the IED, then, when a user intentionally attempts a Log on or when the user attempts
to perform an operation that is password protected, the Log on window will appear.
The cursor is focused on the User identity field, so upon pressing the key, the user can
change the user name, by browsing the list of users, with the “up” and “down” arrows.
After choosing the right user name, the user must press the “E” key again. When it comes
to password, upon pressing the key, the following character will show up: “$”. After
all the letters are introduced (passwords are case sensitive) choose OK and press the
key again.
If everything is alright at a voluntary Log on, the local HMI returns to the Authorization
screen. If the Log on is OK, when required to change for example a password protected
setting, the local HMI returns to the actual setting folder. If the Log on has failed, then the
Log on window opens again, until either the user makes it right or presses “Cancel”.
The users, their roles and rights are created, deleted and edited only in the Central Account
Management server (SDM600). However, the user rights can be edited in the IED by using
the PCM600 user tool.
One user can have one or several user roles. By default, the users in Table 286 are created
in the IED, and when creating new users in the SDM600 server, the predefined roles from
Table 749 can be used.
At delivery, the IED user has full access as SuperUser when using the
LHMI and as Administrator when using FTP or PCM600 until Central
Account Management is activated.
The PCM600 tool caches the login credentials after successful login for 15
minutes. During that time no more login will be necessary.
The successfully activation of Central Account Management will disable built-in users or
remove all local created users from PCM600.
Management of user credentials and roles is handled on the central Account Management
server e.g. SDM600 The IED employs two strategies to ensure availability of the
authentication system even if there is a problem with the network or authentication server:
• A substation can be equipped with two redundant authentication servers operating in
a hot standby mode.
• If configured by the security administrator, the IED itself maintains a local replica in
the database with selected users. This database is periodically updated with data from
the server and used as fallback if none of the servers are reachable.
Note that not all users in the SDM600 server are part of the replica. There might be users
that are not assigned to any replication group. IED only replicates those users which are
part of replication group configured in the IED.
This replication can be disabled using PCM600 by the security administrator, which
means that the IED will forward login requests to the SDM600 for authorization and in
case of problems with the network users will not be able to log in to the IED.
All communication between the central management and the IEDs is protected using
secure communication. Customers using SDM600 are required to generate and distribute
certificates during the engineering process of the substation. These certificates ensure
mutual trust between IED and for example SDM600, FTP, PCM600 and other system.
The IED users can be created, deleted and edited only in the CAM server.

Some output signals are available from the INTERRSIG function block. The signals from
this function block are sent as events via IEC61850 to the station level of the control
system. These signals can also be connected to binary outputs for signalization via output
relays or they can be used as conditions for other functions if required/desired.
Individual error signals from I/O modules can be obtained from respective module in the
Signal Matrix tool. Error signals from time synchronization can be obtained from the
INTERRSIG function block via two outputs TSYNCERR and RTCERR .
Self supervision provides several status signals that give information about the internal
status of the IED. For this reason they are also called internal signals. These internal
signals , available on local HMI under Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/General,
can be divided into two groups.
• Standard signals are always presented in the IED, see table 755.
• Hardware dependent internal signals are collected depending on the hardware
configuration, see table 756.
The analog signals to the A/D converter is internally distributed into two different
converters, one with low amplification and one with high amplification.
When the signal is within measurable limits on both channels, a direct comparison of the
two A/D converter channels can be performed. If the validation fails, the CPU will be
informed and an alarm will be given for A/D converter failure.
18.6.1 Functionality
The time synchronization function is used to select a common source of absolute time for
the synchronization of the IED when it is a part of a protection system. This makes it
possible to compare events and disturbance data between all IEDs within a station
automation system and in between sub-stations.
18.6.2 Settings
There are two groups of parameter settings related to time:
• System time
• Synchronization
The System time group relates to setting the on/off and start/end of the Daylight Saving
Time (DST) for the local time zone in relation to Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The
Synchronization group relates to selecting the coarse and fine synchronization sources. As
well as defining the synchronization master and accuracy levels specifically for
IEC61850-9-2.
All the settings and parameters related to time are available via Local HMI under Main
menu/Configuration/Time/System time and via PCM600 under IED Configuration/
Time.
Time definitions
The error of a clock is the difference between the actual time of the clock, and the time the
clock is intended to have. Clock accuracy indicates the increase in error, that is, the time
gained or lost by the clock. A disciplined clock knows its own faults and tries to
compensate for them.

*IEC 61850-9-2
IEC08000287-2-en.vsd
IEC08000287 V2 EN
All time tagging is performed by the software clock. When, for example, a status signal is
changed in the protection system of a function based on the free running hardware clock,
the event is time tagged by the software clock when it reaches the event recorder. The
hardware clock can thus run independently.
The echo mode of differential protection is based on the hardware clock. Thus, there is no
need to synchronize the hardware clock and the software clock.
The synchronization of the hardware clock to the software clock is necessary only when
GPS or IRIG B 00X with optical fibre, IEEE 1344 is used for differential protection. The
two clock systems are synchronized by a special clock synchronization unit with two
modes, fast and slow. A special feature, an automatic fast clock time regulator is used. The
automatic fast mode makes the synchronization time as short as possible during pickup or
at interruptions/disturbances in the GPS timing. The fast and slow settings are also
available on the local HMI.
The hardware and software clocks are not synchronized if a GPS clock is used.
When the time difference is >16μs, the differential function is blocked and the time
regulator for the hardware clock automatically uses a fast mode to synchronize the clock
systems. The time adjustment is made with an exponential function, that is, with big time
adjustment steps in the beginning, and then smaller steps until a time deviation between
the GPS time and the differential time system of <16μs has been reached. The differential
function is then enabled and the synchronization remains in fast mode or switches to slow
mode depending on the setting.
Synchronization principle
From a general point of view synchronization can be seen as a hierarchical structure. A
function is synchronized from a higher level and provides synchronization to lower levels.
Synchronization from

Function
Optional synchronization of
modules at a lower level
IEC09000342-1-en.vsd
IEC09000342 V1 EN
The IED has a built-in real-time clock (RTC) with a resolution of one second. The clock
has a built-in calendar that handles leap years through 2038.
• If the synchronization message, which is similar to the other messages, has an offset
compared to the internal time in the IED, the message is used directly for
synchronization, which means, for adjusting the internal clock to obtain zero offset at
the next coming time message.
• If the synchronization message has a large offset compared to the other messages, a
spike-filter in the IED removes this time-message.
• If the synchronization message has a large offset and the following message also has
a large offset, the spike filter does not act and the offset in the synchronization
message is compared to a threshold that defaults to 500 milliseconds. If the offset is
more than the threshold, the clock jumps a whole number of seconds so the remaining
offset is less than 500ms. The remaining offset is then slowly adjusted with 1000 ppm
until the offset is removed. With an adjustment of 1000ppm it takes 500 seconds to
remove an offset of 500 milliseconds.
Synchronization messages configured as coarse are only used for initial setting of the
time. After this has been done, the messages are checked against the internal time and only
an offset of more than 10 seconds resets the time.
Rate accuracy
The Rate accuracy is the accuracy of the internal clock while the external time signal is lost
(e.g. GPS lost). In the IED, the rate accuracy at cold start is 100 ppm but if the IED is
synchronized for a while, the rate accuracy is approximately 1 ppm if the surrounding
temperature is constant. It can take up to one hour after a cold start of the IED to reach to
a stable rate due to the normal warming-up procedure of the IED.
• via any of the communication ports of the IED as a telegram message including date
and time
• as a minute pulse connected to a binary input
• via GPS
• via IRIG-B or PPS
SNTP provides complete time-information and can be used as both fine and coarse time
synch source. However SNTP shall normally be used as fine synch only. The only reason
to use SNTP as coarse synch is in combination with PPS as fine source. The combination
SNTP as both fine and coarse source shall not be used.
• Coarse message is sent every minute and comprises complete date and time, that is,
year, month, day, hours, minutes, seconds and milliseconds.
• Fine message is sent every second and comprises only seconds and milliseconds.
The minute pulse is connected to any channel on any Binary Input Module in the IED. The
electrical characteristic is thereby the same as for any other binary input.
If the objective of synchronization is to achieve a relative time within the substation and
if no station master clock with minute pulse output is available, a simple minute pulse
generator can be designed and used for synchronization of the IEDs. The minute pulse
generator can be created using the logical elements and timers available in the IED.
The definition of a minute pulse is that it occurs one minute after the last pulse. As only
the flanks are detected, the flank of the minute pulse shall occur one minute after the last
flank.
Pulse data:
Deviations in the period time (a) larger than 50 ms will cause TSYNCERR.
en05000251.vsd
IEC05000251 V1 EN
The default time-out-time for a minute pulse is two minutes, and if no valid minute pulse
is received within two minutes a SYNCERR will be given.
If contact bounce occurs, only the first pulse will be detected as a minute pulse. The next
minute pulse will be registered first 60 s - 50 ms after the last contact bounce.
If the minute pulses are perfect, for example, it is exactly 60 seconds between the pulses,
contact bounces might occur 49 ms after the actual minute pulse without effecting the
system. If contact bounce occurs more than 50 ms, for example, it is less than 59950 ms
between the two most adjacent positive (or negative) flanks, the minute pulse will not be
accepted.
To receive IRIG-B there are two connectors in the IRIG-B module, one galvanic BNC
connector and one optical ST connector. IRIG-B 12x messages can be supplied via the
galvanic interface, and IRIG-B 00x messages can be supplied via either the galvanic
interface or the optical interface, where x (in 00x or 12x) means a number in the range of
0-7.
“00” means that a base band is used, and the information can be fed into the IRIG-B
module via the BNC contact or an optical fiber. “12” means that a 1 kHz modulation is
used. In this case the information must go into the module via the BNC connector.
If the x in 00x or 12x is 4, 5, 6 or 7, the time message from IRIG-B contains information
of the year. If the x is 0, 1, 2 or 3, the information contains only the time within the year,
and year information has to be set via PCM600 or local HMI.
The IRIG-B module also takes care of IEEE1344 messages that are sent by IRIG-B clocks,
as IRIG-B previously did not have any year information. IEEE1344 is compatible with
IRIG-B and contains year information and information of the time-zone.
18.7.1 Functionality
Use the six different groups of settings to optimize the IED operation for different power
system conditions. Creating and switching between fine-tuned setting sets, either from the

inputs changes the active setting group. Eight functional output signals are available for
configuration purposes, so that information on the active setting group is always available.
A setting group is selected by using the local HMI, from a front connected personal
computer, remotely from the station control or station monitoring system or by activating
the corresponding input to the ActiveGroup function block.
Each input of the function block can be configured to connect to any of the binary inputs
in the IED. To do this PCM600 must be used.
The external control signals are used for activating a suitable setting group when adaptive
functionality is necessary. Input signals that should activate setting groups must be either
permanent or a pulse exceeding 400 ms.
More than one input may be activated at the same time. In such cases the lower order
setting group has priority. This means that if for example both group four and group two
are set to be activated, group two will be the one activated.
Every time a setting is changed, the output signal GRP_CHGD is sending a pulse.
Activating or deactivating test mode is made by changing a parameter, consequently this
will also cause a pulse on the GRP_CHGD output.
The parameter MaxNoSetGrp defines the maximum number of setting groups in use to
switch between.
The output REMSETEN indicates whether setting changes over IEC61850 are enabled or
not. Per default, this is not enabled, which results in REMSETEN being at a logical low
level. If setting changes via IEC61850 are enabled, then REMSETEN will be a logical high.
The setting changes over IEC61850 is enabled with the setting EnableSettings in the
IEC61850-8-1 configuration under Main menu/Configuration/Communication/
Station communication/IEC61850-8-1/IEC61850-8-1. Please refer to documentation
for IEC61850 for further details.

18.9.1 Functionality
When entering IED test mode there is an option to block all functions. Active test mode
is indicated by a flashing yellow Pickup LED on the LHMI. After that, it is possible to
unblock arbitrarily selected functions from the LHMI to perform required tests.
When leaving TESTMODE, all blockings are removed (except for functions that have
their block input active), and the IED resumes normal operation. However, if during
TESTMODE operation, power is removed and later restored, the IED will remain in
TESTMODE with the same protection functions blocked or unblocked as before the
power was removed. All testing will be done with actually set and configured values
within the IED. No settings will be changed, thus mistakes are avoided.
Forcing of binary input and output signals is only possible when the IED is in IED test
mode.

While the IED is in test mode, the output ACTIVE of the function block TESTMODE is
activated. The other outputs of the function block TESTMODE shows the cause of the
"Test mode: Enabled" state — input from configuration (OUTPUT signal is activated) or
setting from local HMI (SETTING signal is activated).
While the IED is in test mode, the yellow Pickup LED will flash and all functions can be
blocked depending on the configuration of the testmode component. Any function can be
unblocked individually regarding functionality and event signalling.
The functions will be blocked next time if the testmode component is configured to block
components upon puting the IED into testmode.
The blocking of a function concerns all output signals from the actual function, so no
outputs will be activated.
If the IED is restarted while set to IED testmode by a binary input all
functions will be temporarily unblocked during startup, which might
cause unwanted operations.
The TESTMODE function block might be used to automatically block functions when a
test handle is inserted in a test switch. A contact in the test switch (RTXP24 contact 29-30)
or an FT switch finger can supply a binary input which in turn is configured to the
TESTMODE function block.
Each of the functions includes the blocking from the TESTMODE function block.
The functions can also be blocked from sending events over IEC 61850 station bus to
prevent filling station and SCADA databases with test events, for example during a
commissioning or maintenance test.

Application Manual for information about how milliamp (mA) inputs from external
transducers are physically connected to the MIM board inputs used in an IED. Via the
SMMI, the signals are brought into the IED configuration, for example, to the input for
ambient temperature compensation of the thermal overload function when there is a need
for ambient temperature compensation in the thermal function.

18.15.1 Functionality
Signal matrix for analog inputs (SMAI), also known as the preprocessor function block,
analyses the connected four analog signals (three phases and neutral) and calculates all
relevant information from them like the phasor magnitude, phase angle, frequency, true
RMS value, harmonics, sequence components and so on. This information is then used by
the respective functions connected to this SMAI block in ACT (for example protection,
measurement or monitoring functions).

18.15.4 Settings
System phase rotation and frequency are defined using the PhaseRotation and Frequency
settings in the primary system values PRIMVAL function. Logic 1 in the REVROT input
to the SMAI function means that the phase rotation is changed relative to the set
PhaseRotation in PRIMVAL.
The output signal AI1 to AI4 are direct output of the, in SMT, connected input to GRPx_A,
GRPxB, GRPxC and GRPx_N, x=1-12. AIN is always calculated residual sum from the
first three inputs. A3P is grouped, three-phase information containing all relevant
information about four connected inputs. Note that all other functions, with a few
exceptions, use this output in configuration. Note that the SMAI function will always
calculate the residual sum of current/voltage if the input GRPxN is not connected in SMT.
Applications with a few exceptions shall always be connected to AI3P.
The SMAI function includes a functionality based on the level of positive sequence
voltage, MinValFreqMeas, to validate if the frequency measurement is valid or not. If the
positive sequence voltage is lower than MinValFreqMeas, the function freezes the
frequency output value for 500 ms and after that the frequency output is set to the nominal
value. A signal is available for the SMAI function to prevent operation due to non-valid
frequency values. MinValFreqMeas is set as % of VBase/√3
If SMAI setting ConnectionType is Ph-Ph, at least two of the inputs GRPx_A, GRPx_B
and GRPx_C, where 1≤x≤12, must be connected in order to calculate the positive
sequence voltage. Note that phase to phase inputs shall always be connected as follows:
A-B to GRPxA, B-C to GRPxB, C-A to GRPxC. If SMAI setting ConnectionType is Ph-
N, all three inputs GRPx_A, GRPx_B and GRPx_C must be connected in order to
calculate the positive sequence voltage.
If only one phase-phase voltage is available and SMAI setting ConnectionType is Ph-Ph,
the user is advised to connect two (not three) of the inputs GRPx_A, GRPx_B and
GRPx_C to the same voltage input as shown in figure 367 to make SMAI calculate a
positive sequence voltage.

for updating values when necessary.
Each applicable function in the IED has a parameter, GlobalBaseSel, defining one out of
the twelve sets of GBASVAL functions.

19.2.2.2 Functionality
The NUM has one PMC slot (32-bit IEEE P1386.1 compliant) and two PC-MIP slots onto
which mezzanine cards such as SLM or LDCM can be mounted.
To reduce bus loading of the compact PCI bus in the backplane the NUM has one internal
PCI bus for internal resources and the PMC/PC-MIP slots and external PCI accesses
through the backplane are buffered in a PCI/PCI bridge.
The application code and configuration data are stored in flash memory using a flash file
system.
The NUM is equipped with a real time clock. It uses a capacitor for power backup of the
real time clock.
No forced cooling is used on this standard module because of the low power dissipation.

19.2.7.1 Introduction
The binary input module has 16 optically isolated inputs and is available in two versions,
one standard and one with enhanced pulse counting capabilities on the inputs to be used
with the pulse counter function. The binary inputs are freely programmable and can be
used for the input of logical signals to any of the functions. They can also be included in
the disturbance recording and event-recording functions. This enables extensive
monitoring and evaluation of operation of the IED and for all associated electrical circuits.
19.2.7.2 Design
The Binary input module contains 16 optical isolated binary inputs. The voltage level of
the binary input is selected at order.
For configuration of the input signals, refer to section "Signal matrix for binary inputs
SMBI".
A signal discriminator detects and blocks oscillating signals. When blocked, a hysteresis
function may be set to release the input at a chosen frequency, making it possible to use
the input for pulse counting. The blocking frequency may also be set.
Well defined input high and input low voltages ensure normal operation at battery supply
ground faults, see figure 377 The figure shows the typical operating characteristics of the
binary inputs of the four voltage levels.
I/O events are time stamped locally on each module for minimum time deviance and
stored by the event recorder if present.

19.2.8.1 Introduction
The binary output module has 24 independent output relays and is used for trip output or
any signaling purpose.
19.2.8.2 Design
The binary output module (BOM) has 24 software supervised output relays. Each pair of
relays have a common power source input to the contacts, see figure 381. This should be
considered when connecting the wiring to the connection terminal on the back of the IED.
The high closing and carrying current capability allows connection directly to breaker trip
and closing coils. If breaking capability is required to manage fail of the breaker auxiliary
contacts normally breaking the trip coil current, a parallel reinforcement is required.
For configuration of the output signals, refer to section "Signal matrix for binary outputs

19.2.10.1 Introduction
The binary input/output module is used when only a few input and output channels are
needed. The ten standard output channels are used for trip output or any signaling purpose.
The two high speed signal output channels are used for applications where short operating
time is essential. Eight optically isolated binary inputs cater for required binary input
information.
19.2.10.2 Design
The binary input/output module is available in two basic versions, one with unprotected
contacts and one with MOV (Metal Oxide Varistor) protected contacts.
Inputs are designed to allow oxide burn-off from connected contacts, and increase the
disturbance immunity during normal protection trip times. This is achieved with a high
peak inrush current while having a low steady-state current, see figure 378. Inputs are
debounced by software.
Well defined input high and input low voltages ensures normal operation at battery supply
ground faults, see figure 377.
I/O events are time stamped locally on each module for minimum time deviance and
stored by the event recorder if present.
The binary I/O module, IOM, has eight optically isolated inputs and ten output relays. One
of the outputs has a change-over contact. The nine remaining output contacts are
connected in two groups. One group has five contacts with a common and the other group
has four contacts with a common, to be used as single-output channels, see figure 385.
The binary I/O module also has two high speed output channels where a reed relay is
connected in parallel to the standard output relay.
For configuration of the input and output signals, refer to sections "Signal matrix for
binary inputs SMBI" and "Signal matrix for binary outputs SMBO".

position X32, X42, and so on
The binary input/output module version with MOV protected contacts can for example be
used in applications where breaking high inductive load would cause excessive wear of
the contacts.
The test voltage across open contact is lower for this version of the binary
input/output module.

19.2.11.1 Introduction
The milli-ampere input module is used to interface transducer signals in the –20 to +20
mA range from for example OLTC position, temperature or pressure transducers. The
module has six independent, galvanically separated channels.
19.2.11.2 Design
The Milliampere Input Module has six independent analog channels with separated
protection, filtering, reference, A/D-conversion and optical isolation for each input
making them galvanically isolated from each other and from the rest of the module.
For configuration of the input signals, refer to section "Signal matrix for mA inputs
SMMI".
The analog inputs measure DC current in the range of +/- 20 mA. The A/D converter has
a digital filter with selectable filter frequency. All inputs are calibrated separately The
filter parameters and the calibration factors are stored in a non-volatile memory on the
module.
The calibration circuitry monitors the module temperature and starts an automatical
calibration procedure if the temperature drift is outside the allowed range.

19.2.12.1 Introduction
The serial and LON communication module (SLM) is used for SPA, IEC 60870-5-103,
DNP3 and LON communication. The module has two optical communication ports for
plastic/plastic, plastic/glass or glass/glass. One port is used for serial communication
(SPA, IEC 60870-5-103 and DNP3 port) and one port is dedicated for LON
communication.
19.2.12.2 Design
The SLM is a PMC card and it is factory mounted as a mezzanine card on the NUM
module. Three variants of the SLM are available with different combinations of optical
fiber connectors, see figure 388. The plastic fiber connectors are of snap-in type and the
glass fiber connectors are of ST type.

19.2.13.1 Introduction
The Galvanic RS485 communication module (RS485) is used for DNP3.0 and IEC
60870-5-103 communication. The module has one RS485 communication port. The
RS485 is a balanced serial communication that can be used either in 2-wire or 4-wire
connections. A 2-wire connection uses the same signal for RX and TX and is a multidrop
communication with no dedicated Master or slave. This variant requires however a control
of the output. The 4-wire connection has separated signals for RX and TX multidrop
communication with a dedicated Master and the rest are slaves. No special control signal
is needed in this case.

19.2.15.1 Introduction
The line data communication module (LDCM) is used for communication between the
IEDs situated at distances <68 miles or from the IED to optical to electrical converter with
G.703 interface located on a distances <1.9 miles away. The LDCM module sends and
rereceives data, to and from another LDCM module. The IEEE/ANSI standard format is
used.
The line data communication module is used for binary signal transfer. The module has
one optical port with ST connectors see figure 391.
Alternative cards for Long range (1550 nm single mode), Medium range (1310 nm single
mode) and Short range (850 nm multi mode) are available.
Class 1 laser product. Take adequate measures to protect the eyes. Never

Grounding
At special problems with ground loops, the soft ground connection for the IIO-ground can
be tested.
Three different kinds of grounding principles can be set (used for fault tracing):
1. Direct ground - The normal grounding is direct ground, connect terminal 2 directly to
the chassis.
2. No ground - Leave the connector without any connection.
3. Soft ground - Connect soft ground pin (3), see figure 394

19.2.16.3 Functionality
The data format is HDLC. The speed for the transmission of the messages used is 64 kbit/
s.
A maximum of 100 meter of cable is allowed to ensure the quality of the data (deviation
from X.21 standard cable length).
Synchronization
The X.21 LDCM works like a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) and is normally expecting
synchronization from the DCE (Data Circuit Equipment). The transmission is normally
synchronized to the Signal Element Timing signal when a device is a DTE. When the
signal is high it will read the data at the receiver and when the signal is low it will write data
to the transmitter. This behaviour can be inverted in the control register.
Normally an external multiplexer is used and it should act like the master.
When two X.21 LDCM is directly communicating with each other one must be set as a
master generating the synchronization for the other (the slave). The DTE Signal Element
Timing is created from the internal 64 kHz clock.
19.2.17.1 Introduction
This module includes a GPS receiver used for time synchronization. The GPS has one
SMA contact for connection to an antenna. It also includes an optical PPS ST-connector
output.
19.2.17.2 Design
The GTM is a PCMIP-format card and is placed only on one of the ADM slots. The
antenna input connector is shielded and directly attached to a grounded plate to eliminate
the risk of electromagnetic interference.
All communication between the GCM and the NUM is via the PCI-bus. PPS time data is
sent from the GCM to the rest of the time system to provide 1μs accuracy at sampling
level. An optical transmitter for PPS output is available for time synchronization of
another relay with an optical PPS input. The PPS output connector is of ST-type for
multimode fibre and could be used up to 1 km.
19.2.18.1 Introduction
In order to receive GPS signals from the satellites orbiting the earth a GPS antenna with
applicable cable must be used.

Antenna cable
Use a 50 ohm coaxial cable with a male TNC connector in the antenna end and a male
SMA connector in the receiver end to connect the antenna to GTM. Choose cable type and
length so that the total attenuation is max. 26 dB at 1.6 GHz.
Make sure that the antenna cable is not charged when connected to the
antenna or to the receiver. Short-circuit the end of the antenna cable with
some metal device, when first connected to the antenna. When the antenna
is connected to the cable, connect the cable to the receiver. The IED must
be switched off when the antenna cable is connected.
19.2.19.1 Introduction
The IRIG-B time synchronizing module is used for accurate time synchronizing of the
IED from a station clock.
The Pulse Per Second (PPS) input shall be used for synchronizing when IEC 61850-9-2LE
is used.
Electrical (BNC) and optical connection (ST) for 0XX and 12X IRIG-B support.
19.2.19.2 Design
The IRIG-B module has two inputs. One input is for the IRIG-B that can handle both a
pulse-width modulated signal (also called unmodulated) and an amplitude modulated
signal (also called sine wave modulated). The other is an optical input type ST for optical
pulse-width modulated signal (IRIG-B 00X).

The inverse time characteristic makes it possible to minimize the fault clearance time and
still assure the selectivity between protections.
To assure selectivity between protections there must be a time margin between the
operation time of the protections. This required time margin is dependent of following
factors, in a simple case with two protections in series:
A1 B1
Feeder
51 51
Time axis
en05000132_ansi.vsd
ANSI05000132 V1 EN
where:
t=0 is The fault occurs
t=t1 is Protection B1 trips
In the case protection B1 shall trip without any intentional delay (instantaneous). When
the fault occurs the protections pickup to detect the fault current. After the time t1 the
protection B1 send a trip signal to the circuit breaker. The protection A1 starts its delay
timer at the same time, with some deviation in time due to differences between the two
protections. There is a possibility that A1 will pickup before the trip is sent to the B1 circuit
breaker. At the time t2 the circuit breaker B1 has opened its primary contacts and thus the
fault current is interrupted. The breaker time (t2 - t1) can differ between different faults.
The maximum opening time can be given from manuals and test protocols. Still at t2 the
timer of protection A1 is active. At time t3 the protection A1 is reset, that is the timer is
stopped.
In most applications it is required that the times shall reset as fast as possible when the
current fed to the protection drops below the set current level, the reset time shall be
minimized. In some applications it is however beneficial to have some type of delayed
reset time of the overcurrent function. This can be the case in the following applications:
• If there is a risk of intermittent faults. If the current IED, close to the faults, picks up
and resets there is a risk of unselective trip from other protections in the system.
• Delayed resetting could give accelerated fault clearance in case of automatic
reclosing to a permanent fault.
• Overcurrent protection functions are sometimes used as release criterion for other
protection functions. It can often be valuable to have a reset delay to assure the release
function.
If current in any phase exceeds the set pickup current value (here internal signal
pickupValue), a timer, according to the selected operating mode, is started. The
component always uses the maximum of the three phase current values as the current level
used in timing calculations.
In case of definite time-lag mode the timer will run constantly until the time is reached or
until the current drops below the reset value (pickup value minus the hysteresis) and the
reset time has elapsed.
For definite time delay curve ANSI/IEEE Definite time or IEC Definite time are chosen.
The general expression for inverse time curves is according to equation 91.

For inverse time characteristics a time will be initiated when the current reaches the set
pickup level. From the general expression of the characteristic the following can be seen:

For inverse time operation, the inverse time characteristic is selectable. Both the IEC and
ANSI/IEEE standardized inverse time characteristics are supported.
For the IEC curves there is also a setting of the minimum time-lag of operation, see
figure 419.

In order to fully comply with IEC curves definition setting parameter tMin shall be set to
the value which is equal to the operating time of the selected IEC inverse time curve for
measured current of twenty times the set current pickup value. Note that the operating time
value is dependent on the selected setting value for time multiplier k.
In addition to the ANSI and IEC standardized characteristics, there are also two additional
inverse curves available; the RI curve and the RD curve.
The RI inverse time curve emulates the characteristic of the electromechanical ASEA
relay RI. The curve is described by equation 96:

EQUATION1647 V1 EN (Equation 96)
where:
Pickupn is the set pickup current for step n
td is set time multiplier for step n
i is the measured current
The RD inverse curve gives a logarithmic delay, as used in the Combiflex protection
RXIDG. The curve enables a high degree of selectivity required for sensitive residual
ground-fault current protection, with ability to detect high-resistive ground faults. The
curve is described by equation 97:

è td × Pickupn ø
EQUATION1648 V1 EN (Equation 97)
where:
Pickupn is the set pickup current for step n,
td is set time multiplier for step n and
i is the measured current
If the curve type programmable is chosen, the user can make a tailor made inverse time
curve according to the general equation 98.

EQUATION1640 V1 EN (Equation 98)
Also the reset time of the delayed function can be controlled. There is the possibility to
choose between three different reset time-lags.
• Instantaneous Reset
• IEC Reset
• ANSI Reset.
If instantaneous reset is chosen the timer will be reset directly when the current drops
below the set pickup current level minus the hysteresis.
If IEC reset is chosen the timer will be reset after a set constant time when the current drops
below the set pickup current level minus the hysteresis.
If ANSI reset time is chosen the reset time will be dependent of the current after fault
clearance (when the current drops below the pickup current level minus the hysteresis).
The timer will reset according to equation 99.

The possibility of choice of reset characteristics is to some extent dependent of the choice
of time delay characteristic.
For the definite time delay characteristics the possible reset time settings are instantaneous
and IEC constant time reset.
For ANSI inverse time delay characteristics all three types of reset time characteristics are
available; instantaneous, IEC constant time reset and ANSI current dependent reset time.
For IEC inverse time delay characteristics the possible delay time settings are
instantaneous and IEC set constant time reset).
For the programmable inverse time delay characteristics all three types of reset time
characteristics are available; instantaneous, IEC constant time reset and ANSI current
dependent reset time. If the current dependent type is used settings pr, tr and cr must be
given, see equation 100:

Instance When several occurrences of the same function are available in
the IED, they are referred to as instances of that function. One
instance of a function is identical to another of the same kind but
has a different number in the IED user interfaces. The word
"instance" is sometimes defined as an item of information that is
representative of a type. In the same way an instance of a
function in the IED is representative of a type of function.

UTC Coordinated Universal Time. A coordinated time scale,
maintained by the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures
(BIPM), which forms the basis of a coordinated dissemination
of standard frequencies and time signals. UTC is derived from
International Atomic Time (TAI) by the addition of a whole
number of "leap seconds" to synchronize it with Universal Time
1 (UT1), thus allowing for the eccentricity of the Earth's orbit,
the rotational axis tilt (23.5 degrees), but still showing the
Earth's irregular rotation, on which UT1 is based. The
Coordinated Universal Time is expressed using a 24-hour
clock, and uses the Gregorian calendar. It is used for aeroplane
and ship navigation, where it is also sometimes known by the
military name, "Zulu time." "Zulu" in the phonetic alphabet
stands for "Z", which stands for longitude zero.
