3.2. Generator Differential Protection Principles

The principles of generator differential protection include the principles of the generator
complete longitudinal differential protection, split-phase transverse differential protection, and
excitation generator differential protection.
3.2.1. Generator Unrestrained Instantaneous Differential

Protection
This protection has been set to cut off the internal serious faults. When any phase differential
current I d exceeds the setting value I cdsd (Setting value of differential current unrestrained
18
instantaneous protection), the protection shall act instantaneously. The operation characteristic are
in Fig. 3.2.2, in which the area above I cdsd is the differential current unrestrained instantaneous
operation zone. As a differential protection against serious faults, it would not be blocked by CT
disconnection. The operation logic is as in Fig. 3.2.1.

The operation equation is as following:

the percentage restraint slope, I r1 is the corresponding restraint current of restraint characteristic
inflection point, and I1 & I2 are the input currents on either side of differential relay.
2) CT Connection Principle and the Balance
The generator terminal CT and neutral point CT are connected to the protective device.The
generator terminal CT and neutral point CT current shall constitute complete longitudinal
differential.Two different branch of neutral point CT shall constitute split-phase transverse
differential protection. The device requests both the generator terminal CT and neutral point CT to
be connected with ‘Y’ shape. and all the CT’s polar ends should be on the generator neutral point
side. Refer to the figure of typical application configuration in section 1.1 for detailed wirings.
The device shall adjust automatically the inconsistence in the CT ratios on both sides of
generator, calculate the CT adjustment coefficients on both sides. No external auxiliary CT is
needed.
3) CT Saturation Checking and Blocking
To avoid accidental differential protection operation resulted from CT saturation in external
faults, this protection device shall judge the internal and external faults by detecting the
synchronization status between differential current and restraint current. If the differential current
appears later than restraint current, it shall be judged as external fault CT saturation, and the
differential protection shall be blocked.
When external fault occurs with CT saturation; identification by the dead angle of differential
waveforms could help effectively avoid accidental operation. If the external fault turns to be an
internal fault, the divice shall cancel the blocking by the characteristic of the linear transfer zone of
differential & restraint currents in order to ensure tripping fast.
4) CT Disconnection Judging Element
For the instantaneous CT disconnection, the differential protection have the function of CT
disconnection judging and blocking.
For the internal faults, at least one of the following condition will satisfied, and for the CT
disconnection all of the following condition will not satisfied. So it will judge as CT disconnection
when all of the following condition will not satisfied:
1） Max phase current exceeds 1.2I e ;
2） Any phase-to-phase mutation voltage element on any side pickups;
3） Negative voltage on any side exceeds the threshold;
4） Differential current exceeds 1.2I e ;
5） Differential current increases simultaneously with the restraint current.
When [CT circuit failure block differential protection] is set to “1”, and all of the above condition
not satisfied, percentage differential protection shall be blocked. When anyone of the above
condition satisfied, the CT disconnection blocking shall be cancelled, the differential protection shall
be allowed to operate. When [CT circuit failure block differential protection] is set to “0”, under
status of CT disconnection, percentage differential protection shall not be blocked, and only if the
differential protection operation condition has been satisfied, the differential protection shall
operate.
5) Differential Current Overreaching Monitoring
The differential current overreaching threshold shall be 0.5 times of the differential pickup
20
setting. When the differential current exceeds its overreaching threshold but is less than the
differential pickup setting, it would not lead to the pickup of differential protection. To avoid
accidental operation of differential protection resulted from load increasing or external fault, the
differential current overreaching alarm element has been designed.
When any phase differential current has exceeded the differential overreaching threshold for
more than 10s, the “differential current overreaching alarm” signal shall be sent, and the differential
protection shall not be blocked.
6) CT Disconnection Alarm
When the differential current exceeds 0.5 times of the differential pickup setting, and one side’s
negative sequence current exceeds 0.06ln or zero sequence current exceeds 0.08ln, the CT
disconnection alarm signal on corresponding side shall be sent. This alarm shall not block the
differential protection.

3.3. Principles for the Differential Protection of Main

Transformer, G-T Unit, Step-down Transformer and
Excitation Transformer
3.3.1. Phase Adjust and Amplitude Balance of Each Side of the
Differential Protection
CT of every side of the differential protection should be connected to the device with ‘Y’
shape.
The device shall adjust phase and balance amplitude automatically by the software. All the
CT’s polar ends should be far away from the transformer. Refer to the figure of typical application
configuration in section 1.1 for detailed wirings.
The device use the mode of Y->∆ to adjust phase, the phase of ∆ side will not be adjusted, and
the phase of Y side will be adjusted to balance the phase.
Take the YN,d11 as example, the device will adjust the phase of Y side, the current of Y side
after phase adjusted are as follows:
21
IA  (IA  IB ) / 3
IB  (IB  IC ) / 3
IC  (IC  IA ) / 3
The device shall adjust automatically the inconsistence in the CT ratios on every sides of the
protection, calculate the CT adjustment coefficients on every sides. No external auxiliary CT is
needed.
3.3.2. Unstrained Instantaneous Differential Protection

When fault occurs with CT saturation inside the transformer, on the leads of transformer, or the
cashing of transformer, the waveform of CT second current shall be distorted seriously. In order to
avoid the refusing operation or slowly operation of the percentage differential protection which may
judge the current as inrush current. The device use the unrestrained instantaneous differential
protectionhg to cut off the serious fault promptly. The operation criterion is:
I d  I sdset (3.3.1)
Wherein, Id is the differential current, Isdset is the unrestrained instantaneous differential
protection setting. When any phase differential current exceeds the unrestrained instantaneous
differential setting, switches on all sides shall trip instantly. The operation logic is as following:

I1...m are the currents on each side of transformer.
2) CT Saturation
To avoid accidental differential operation resulted from CT saturation in external faults, this
protection device shall judge the internal and external faults by detecting the synchronization status
between differential current and restraint current. If the differential current appears later than
restraint current, it shall be judged as external fault CT saturation, and the differential protection
shall be blocked.
External fault is accompanied by CT saturation blocking differential protection, and furthermore,
each cycle has its linear transfer zone, so the external and internal faults can be well distinguished
by the discontinuation characteristic of differential waveforms. If the external fault turns to be an
internal fault, cancel the blocking by the characteristic in the linear transfer zone. If linear zone
exists after blocking, it shall be judged to be still external CT saturation, and the blocking shall
continue; if no linear zone exists in one continuous cycle, it shall be judged to be internal fault, and
the blocking shall be cancelled.
3) Judge Magnetizing Inrush by Harmonic Components
The magnetizing inrush contains a great deal of harmonic components, most being 2nd
harmonic component. The magnetizing inrush could be identified by the content of 2nd harmonic
23
component in the differential current. The criterion is:
I d 2  kxb 2  I d1 (3.3.3)
Id1& Id2 are the fundamental and second harmonic component of differential current in each
phase. kxb2 is the restraint coefficient of 2nd harmonic component, which is advised to set to
0.1~0.18. When any one of the three phases has been judged to be a magnetizing inrush, only this
phase’s percentage differential element shall be blocked.
4) Judge magnetizing inrush by Waveform
During the fault, the differential current is basically a fundamental sine wave, while during
magnetizing inrush, the massive existence of harmonic components shall distort the waveform,
making it broken and asymmetric. Identify this kind of distortion by an algorithm, and the
magnetizing inrush shall be judged. Waveform identification should be done by phases, and
restrain the respective phase of longitudinal differential protection.
When any one of the three phases has been judged to be a magnetizing inrush, only this
phase’s percentage differential element shall be blocked
The respective characteristicss of fault waveform, one side Inrush, and symmetrical Inrush
have been analyzed. The device has adopted the respective arithmetic and criteria, in order to
ensure the device to distinguish the magnetizing inrush and fault waveform appropriately, act
promptly against faults, and block appropriately in the no-load status.
5) Block percentage differential protection when over excitation
When the transformer over excitation, the excitation current will enlarge prominent, and the
unbalance differential current will appear, the transformer differential protection or generator
transformer unit differeintial protection may operated by mistake. Because the 5th harmonic current
is bigger when the transformer over excitated,so use ratio value of the 5th harmonic and the
fundamental value as the blocking criterion. When the ratio is bigger then the setting, the
percentage differential protection will be blocked. The criterion is :
I d 5  kxb5  I d1 (3.3.4)
Id1& Id5 are the fundamental and fifth harmonic component of differential current in each phase.
kxb5 is the restraint coefficient of 5th harmonic component, which is set to 0.25 in the device.
6) CT Disconnection Judging Element
For the instantaneous CT disconnection, the differential protection have the function of CT
disconnection judging and blocking.
For the internal faults, at least one of the following condition will satisfied, and for the CT
disconnection all of the following condition will not satisfied. So it will judge as CT disconnection
when all of the following condition will not satisfied:
1) Max phase current exceeds 1.2 I e ;
2) Any phase-to-phase mutation voltage element on any side starts;
3) Negative voltage on any side exceeds the threshold;
4) Differential current exceeds 1.2 I e ;
5) Differential current increases simultaneously with the restraint current.
When [CT circuit failure block differential protection] is set to “1”, and all of the above condition
not satisfied, percentage differential protection shall be blocked. When anyone of the above
condition satisfied, the CT disconnection blocking shall be cancelled, the differential protection shall
be allowed to operate. When [CT circuit failure block differential protection] is set to “0”, under
status of CT disconnection, percentage differential protection shall not be blocked, and only if the
24
differential protection operation condition has been satisfied, the differential protection shall
operate.
7) Differential Current Overreaching Monitoring
The differential current overreaching threshold shall be 0.5 times of the differential pickup
setting. When the differential current exceeds its overreaching threshold but is less than the
differential pickup setting, it would not lead to the pickup of differential protection. To avoid
accidental operation of differential protection resulted from load increasing or external fault, the
differential current overreaching alarm element has been designed.
When any phase differential current has exceeded the differential overreaching threshold for
more than 10s, the “differential current overreaching alarm” signal shall be sent, and the differential
protection shall not be blocked.
8) CT Disconnection Alarm
When the differential current exceeds 0.5 times of the differential pickup setting, and one side’s
negative sequence current exceeds 0.06ln or zero sequence current exceeds 0.08ln, the CT
disconnection alarm signal on corresponding side shall be sent. This alarm shall not block the
differential protection.

3.4. Generator Turn-to-Turn Protection

This device has provided turn-to-turn short circuit main protections based respectively on two
principles, which can be selected by users under field conditions.
3.4.1. Transverse Differential Protection

Transverse differential protection is installed on the neutral connection line of two or more
branches of generator, used as the main protection against turn-to-turn faults inside the generator,
and could also reflect the inner phase-to-phase faults and stator parallel winding’s open solder
25
faults. This protection is only applicable to generators with multi branches of stator windings in each
phase, and with two or more neutral leading-outs.
3.4.1.1. Principles of the protection

The current of the transverse differential protection is token from the appropriative CT installed
on the connection line between two neutral points of generator. The smaller appropriative CT ratio
can be chosen to increase the sensitivity of protection.
During normal operation of generator, the transverse differential unbalanced current is mainly
in fundamental wave, while during outer faults, the transient transverse differential unbalanced
current is mainly in 3rd harmonic component, so the 3rd harmonic component should be filtered to
promote the reliability and sensitivity of the protection. This device has adopted frequency tracking,
digital filtering and Full-cycle Flourier algorithm, making the transverse differential protection’s
filtering ratio of 3rd harmonic component to be more than 100. Only the fundamental component of
transverse differential current is used in this protection.
Meanwhile, to avoid the accidental operation of protection resulted from transverse differential
current increase during outer short circuit, negative (mutation) directional element can be chose by
control characters as the necessary operation condition .
The protection is realized in two stages: mutation stage and time-delay stage. The mutation
stage shall be switched on for only 30ms during one disturbance or fault, which is highly reliable,
and could operate promptly during emergent turn-to-turn fault of generator. The time-delay stage
has a short time-delay t1 to avoid the transient process of outer fault; t1 can be usually set to
0.1~0.2s. Both stages of protection can be switched on / off by control character. When the mutation
stage is switched on, it is allowed to choose the negative sequence mutation direction element
(system oriented) by control characters as the necessary operation condition. When the time-delay
stage is switched on, it is allowed to choose the general negative sequence power directional
element (system oriented) by control characters as the necessary operation condition.
3.4.1.2. Criteria of Protection

Criterion 1 (for transverse differential protection mutation stage):
I hc  I hczd (3.4.1)
Criterion 2 (for transverse differential protection time-delay stage):
I hc  I hczd (3.4.2)
Wherein: I hczd and I hczd are the thresholds for the transverse differential protection mutation
and time-delay stages.
Criterion 3 (for negative mutation direction, system oriented):

Wherein: Iˆ2 is the conjugate vector of I2 , I2  I2e sen.2 ;  sen.2 is the max sensitive
angle of negative sequence mutation direction relay, usually being 70  ~ 80 , and is set to 75
inside the device; u , i ,  p are also the internal thresholds of device, and need no customization.
In this criterion, the current, coming from the generator terminal, could reflect the generator’s inner
26
phase-to-phase and turn-to-turn faults etc., and the voltage has come from the generator terminal.
This criterion shall work together with transverse differential mutation stage.
Criterion 4 (for general negative sequence power direction, system oriented):



I 2  I 2set （3.4.4）

Wherein: U 2set , I 2set and P2set are the thresholds of negative sequence voltage, current and
power.  sen.2 is the max sensitive angle of general negative sequence direction relay (system
oriented), usually being 70  ~ 80 , and is set to 75 inside the device. This criterion shall work
together with transverse differential time-delay stage.
Furthermore: Before connecting the generator to the power grid, when the PT or CT on
generator terminal have been disconnected (including 1st and 2nd disconnection of the PT), the
negative sequence power direction and negative sequence mutation direction shall be invalid.
When the transverse differential time-delay (or mutation) stage is blocked by negative sequence (or
mutation) direction element and the negative sequence (mutation) direction is invalid, the
transverse differential steady (or mutation) criteria shall increase the threshold automatically to
accomplish the protection function independently.
3.4.1.3. Adding Time-delay During Rotor One-Point Earth Fault

When no faults occur in the generator’s excitation circuit, the transverse differential protection
shall trip instantaneously or with minor delay; but when rotor one-point earth fault has occurred, the
rotor excitation magnetic field might be distorted instantaneously resulting the accidental operation
of transverse differential protection. To avoid this, when transient one-point earth fault occurs in the
excitation circuit, the protection operation time will be automatically delayed. The delay time can be
0.5~1.0s.
3.4.1.4. Transverse Differential CT Disconnection Alarm

The transverse differential protection CT 2nd windings disconnection would result in the
rejection of protection, so the alarm signal should be sent.
The logic is: When the generator’s load current I  0.1I n , and the transverse differential
current’s 3rd harmonic component I hc3  0.1A , the transverse differential CT disconnection alarm
signal shall be sent after 9s; when the disconnection has disappeared, it shall return automatically
after 9s.
This criterion is used particularly for judging the transverse differential CT disconnection, and
shall be out of work automatically when the transverse differential protection is out of work, in order
to avoid sending alarm signals unexpectedly.
3.4.1.5. Protection Logic after Generator Terminal CT Disconnection

1) When the negative sequence (mutation) direction element hasn’t been switched on, the
generator terminal CT disconnection shall have no impact on this protection.
27
2) When the negative sequence (mutation) direction element has been switched on, the
generator terminal CT disconnection shall result in the wrong judging or invalidity of
direction element; then, the device shall quit the negative sequence (mutation) direction
element, and increase automatically the transverse differential current threshold, in order
to ensure the reliability.
3.4.1.6. Protection Logic after PT Disconnection

1) When the negative sequence (mutation) direction element hasn’t been switched on, the
PT disconnection shall have no impact on this protection.
2) When the negative sequence (mutation) direction element has been switched on, the
generator terminal PT disconnection shall result in the wrong judging or invalidity of
direction element; then, the device shall quit the negative sequence (mutation) direction
element, and increase automatically the transverse differential current threshold, in order
to ensure the reliability.

3.4.2. Longitudinal Zero Sequence Voltage Turn-to-Turn

Protection
This protection is applicable to generators which have installed the special voltage
transformer(The neutral of the voltage transformer is connect to the neutral of the generator) for
turn-to-turn protection.it could be used the main protection to generator stator winding’s turn-to-turn
short circuit, and also reflect the inner phase-to-phase short circuit and stator winding open solder
faults. The voltage is comed from the special voltage transformer for turn-to-turn protection.
3.4.2.1. Principles of the protection

Generator’s inner faults (phase-to-phase, turn-to-turn short circuits etc.) will be surely reflected
as the unbalance between the generator terminal’s three phases to the neutral point, i.e. for the
neutral point, the generator terminal’s three phases come to have zero sequence voltage 3U 0 ,
which could be measured by a special voltage transformer(PT) and used as the operation quantity
of turn-to-turn protection.
During the normal operation of generator, the generator terminal’s unbalanced longitudinal
zero sequence voltage fundamental component is very small, but the 3rd harmonic component
might be very large, so it is necessary to filter the 3rd harmonic component of longitudinal voltage to
promote the reliability and sensitivity of protection. This device has adopted frequency tracking,
digital filtering and Full-cycle Fourier algorithm, making the filtering ratio of 3rd harmonic component
to be more than 100. Only the fundamental component of longitudinal zero sequence voltage is
used in this protection.
This protection has specified mutation stage and time-delay stage. The mutation stage shall be
switched on for only 30ms during one disturbance or fault. To avoid the accidental operation of this
criterion resulted from longitudinal zero sequence unbalanced voltage increase during outer faults,
the mutation stage will be blocked by negative sequence mutation direction element all the time;and
the time-delay stage will be blocked by negative sequence direction element when the negative
sequence direction element has been switched on.
3.4.2.2. Criteria of Protection

Criterion 1 (for longitudinal zero sequence voltage mutation):
3U 0  U set (3.4.5)
Criterion 2 (for longitudinal zero sequence voltage):
3U 0  U set (3.4.6)
Wherein: U set and U set are respectively the settings in mutation stage and time-delay stage
for longitudinal zero sequence voltage turn-to-turn protection.
Criterion 3 (for negative sequence mutation direction, system oriented): See section 3.4.1.2.
Criterion 4 (for negative sequence power direction, system oriented): See section 3.4.1.2.
Furthermore: Before connecting the generator to the power grid, when the PT or CT on
generator terminal have been disconnected (including 1st and 2nd disconnection of the PT), the
negative sequence mutation direction and negative sequence direction shall be invalid.
When the negative sequence mutation direction is invalid,the mutation stage shall increase the
29
threshold automatically to accomplish the protection function independently.
When the negative sequence direction is invalid and the time-delay stage is blocked by
negative sequence direction element, the longitudinal zero sequence voltage criterion shall
increase the threshold automatically to accomplish the protection function independently.
3.4.2.3. Principle of Special PT Disconnection Blocking

Special PT(only for turn-to-turn fault protection)’s 1st windings disconnection might lead to
accidental operation, so this protection has included another blocking protection of “special PT’s 1st
disconnection blocking” function. The disconnection of the special PT’s open triangle windings
would not lead to accidental operation of protection, but the alarm signal should be sent.
3.4.2.4. Protection Logic after PT Disconnection

1) For mutation stage, the generator terminal PT disconnection shall result in the wrong
judging or invalidity of direction element; then, the device shall quit the negative sequence
mutation direction element, and increase automatically the longitudinal zero sequence
voltage threshold, in order to ensure the reliability.
2) For time-delay stage,when the negative sequence direction element hasn’t been switched
on, the generator terminal PT disconnection shall have no impact on this protection;when
the negative sequence direction element has been switched on, the generator terminal PT
disconnection shall result in the wrong judging or invalidity of direction element; then, the
device shall quit the negative sequence direction element, and increase automatically the
longitudinal zero sequence voltage threshold, in order to ensure the reliability.
3.4.2.5. Protection Logic after CT Disconnection

1) For mutation stage, the generator terminal CT disconnection shall result in the wrong
judging or invalidity of direction element; then, the device shall quit the negative sequence
mutation direction element, and increase automatically the longitudinal zero sequence
voltage threshold, in order to ensure the reliability.
2) For time-delay stage,when the negative sequence direction element hasn’t been switched
on, the generator terminal CT disconnection shall have no impact on this protection;when
the negative sequence direction element has been switched on, the generator terminal CT
disconnection shall result in the wrong judging or invalidity of direction element; then, the
device shall quit the negative sequence direction element, and increase automatically the
longitudinal zero sequence voltage threshold, in order to ensure the reliability.

3.5. Earth Fault Protection of Generator Stator

Generator stator earth fault protection operates against he single phase earth fault of stator.It
can operates as alarm or trip throw the delay which set by the setting.One type of the protection
principle is fundamental zero sequence voltage type and 3rd harmonic component voltage type, the
fundamental zero sequence voltage type protection reflects mainly the 85~95% stator winding’s
single phase earth from the generator terminal; the 3rd harmonic component voltage type
protection reflects mainly the stator winding’s single phase earth near the neutral point of generator.
Both can be switched on and off by control character, and together they constitute the 100% earth
protection of generator stator; Another type of the protection principle is injection type, it constituted
by the resistor criterion and the zero sequence current, together they constitute the 100% earth
protection of generator stator.
3.5.1. Fundamental Zero Sequence Voltage Stator Earth Fault

Protection
Fundamental zero sequence voltage protection reflects the size of generator zero sequence
voltage’s fundamental component. The filtering ratio of 3rd harmonic component is more than 100.
The fundamental zero sequence voltage protection includes alarm stage, low setting tripping
stage and high setting tripping stage. The alarm stage use the neutral point’s zero sequence PT or
31
terminal PT’s open triangle windings,any of which is bigger than the setting, the alarm will sent. The
low setting tripping stage and high setting tripping stage use the neutral point’s zero sequence PT
or terminal PT’s open triangle windings,only both of which are bigger than the setting, the protection
will tripping. The low setting tripping stage shall be blocked by the main transformer’s HV side zero
sequence voltage, in order to avoid accidental operation during external earth fault.The high setting
tripping stage shall no be blocked by the main transformer’s HV side zero sequence voltage, it have
to ensure the reliability by the reasonable setting.
The operation criterion of the fundamental zero sequence voltage protection is: 3U 0  U 0 dz .
The setting of every stage should be setted by the terminal PT’s open triangle windings. The device
will calculate the setting of neutral point’s zero sequence PT automatically.
Principle of PT Disconnection Blocking:
● Generator neutral point 2nd windings or terminal side’s open triangle windings disconnection
shall result in the protection’s refusal of operation, so it is necessary to send PT disconnection
alarm signal.
● To terminal open triangle zero sequence voltage element, terminal PT’s 1st disconnection
shall result in the accidental operation of protection; then automatically the device shall switch on
the terminal PT’s 1st disconnection blocking and alarm.

3.5.2. 3rd Harmonic component Voltage Stator Earth Fault

Protection
32
This protection shall operate by the amplitude and phase of zero sequence 3rd harmonic
component voltage on the terminal and neutral side of generator, and is provided with relatively high
fundamental component filtering function. The terminal’s 3rd harmonic component voltage comes
from the generator terminal PT’s open triangle winding, and the neutral point’s 3rd harmonic voltage
comes from generator neutral PT.
The device has two criteria, which can be chose by control character.
Criterion 1: 3rd Harmonic Voltage Ratio Criterion
U 3 s  K1 U 3n (3.5.1)
Criterion 2: 3rd Harmonic Voltage Differential Criterion
U 3 s  K tU 3n  K 2 U 3n (3.5.2)
Wherein: U 3s and U 3n are respectively the 3rd harmonic components in the generator
terminal PT open triangle winding and neutral point PT. K1 and K 2 are respectively the restraint
coefficients of the two criteria.
Under criterion 1, the terminal’s equivalent capacitive reactance varies a bit great before and
after the G-T unit entering into the power grid, and the 3rd harmonic voltage’s ratio relation shall
vary along with it. So this device has specified individually a certain value before and after the G-T
unit entering into the power grid, which shall switch automatically along with the variation of contact
position of the breaker.
Criterion 2 is a voltage differential protection with U 3 s  K tU 3n used as the operation quantity,
U 3 n used as the restraint quantity, K t used as the vector of auto tracking adjustment coefficient.
This criterion could track the variation of U 3s / U 3n in real time to adjust the operation quantity
continuously, in order to ensure the protection working on relatively ideal sensitive status under any
operation condition of generator. This criterion shall be switched on only after the G-T unit
connecting to the power grid and when the load current exceeds 0.2le (generator’s rated current).
Criterion 2, though being more sensible than criterion 1, is weaker in identification of the slow
dropping of stator winding’s grounding insulation, and is proposed to work together with criterion 1.
In order to avoid the the accidental operation of protection by the relatively major error of 3rd
harmonic when 3rd harmonic component of zero sequence voltage is relatively small or the
deviation of frequency is seriously. The protection shall be blocked if the 3rd harmonic of the
generator terminal PT open triangle winding and neutral point PT is below 0.2V or the deviation of
frequency is seriously.
Principle of PT disconnection blocking: Generator terminal PT’s 1st windings disconnection or
open triangle windings disconnection shall lead to the reduction of 3rd harmonic component of
terminal zero sequence voltage, and this would not result in the accidental operation of 3rd
harmonic voltage ratio criterion (Criterion 1), but may result in the accidental operation of 3rd
harmonic differential operation criterion (Criterion 2); so the criterion 2 should be blocked instantly.
Because the protection shall be blocked when 3rd harmonic component of zero sequence voltage
is relatively small, so the protection shall no accidental operation when 2nd windings disconnection
of PT on the generator’s neutral point or the disconnection of the generator terminal PT open
triangle winding. The protection is not need to be blocked when there two PT disconnected.

The resistor criterion include alarm stage and tripping stage.
The resistor criterion operation equation is:

Wherein, Rg is the primary resistor which measured by the device. RgSet is the resistor alarm
setting of stator earth fault protection(for alarm stage) or the resistor tripping setting of stator earth
fault protection(for tripping stage)
Resistor tripping setting of stator earth fault protection shall trip only when the grounding
current is larger than the setting of safe current, when the grounding current is smaller than the
setting of safe current, the resistor criterion can sent a alarm signal through the alarm stage, the
generator-transformer can stop running after the load have been transfer, avoid the impact of the
generator-transformer and the power system when tripping directly.
3.5.3.2. Zero sequence current criterion

3.6.1. One-Point Earth Fault Protection of Rotor
36
Rotor’s one-point earth protection reflects the dropping of insulation resistance between rotor
and the shaft.
It’s based on the ping-pong switch changing principle, that is, by solving two distinct earth
circuit equations, calculate real-timely the rotor’s earth resistance and earth position. Diagram of
principle is as in Fig. 3.6.1: S1 and S 2 are the static linked electronic switches controlled by PC,
Rg is the earth resistance of excitation winding,  is the position of earth point, and E is the DC
excitation voltage.
Change the electronic switches of S1 & S2 in the diagram to get the respective circuit
equations. Solve these equations to get the rotor’s earth resistance Rg and earth position  .
Rotor’s one-point earth criterion is:
(3.6.1)
Rg  Rgset
When the excitation voltage E is very small(smaller than 10V), Rg and  cannot be
calculated appropriately, so the protection shall be blocked when E is smaller than 10V.
Rotor’s one point earth protection is specified with two stages of setting values. Stage I, which
is more sensitive, operates to alarm. Stage II, which is the common stage, operates to alarm or
tripping according to the corresponding control character. (if the alarm and tripping in stage II have
been both switched on, the device shall deal it as tripping switched on only).
3.6.2. Two-Point Earth Fault Protection of Rotor

When the rotor’s one-point earth protection’s common stage alarm has operated, after inner
additional delay time(15 seconds by default), the rotor two-point earth protection shall be switched
on automatically. After one-point earth, the device shall proceed measuring the earth resistance and
earth position. If the rotor’s another point earth has taken place, the measured position  shall
vary along with it. When  (the variation of  )has exceeded the setting, the protection device
shall identify that the rotor two-point earth fault has occurred, and the generator shall trip after
preset additional delay. When one-point earth’s common stage switches directly to tripping, the
two-point earth protection doesn’t need to be switched on.
The protection criterion is:
(3.6.2)
   set
Wherein:
 set is the rotor’s two-point earth position variation setting.
Rotor two-point earth protection could choose, by the control character, to be blocked by the
terminal voltage’s 2nd harmonic wave, so as to promote the reliability of protection.

3.7. Injection type Generator Rotor Earth Fault Protection

When “SELECT_Prot_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“0”
，the device choose the injection type rotor
earth protection. There is a injection source in the device that can be used to the injection type rotor
earth protection, It can monitors rotor insulation when there is no excitation voltage,when the fault
occur at any point between the rotor winding and the shaft,the sensitivity of the protection is high
and consistent. Single injection mode or dual injection mode can be chose when necessary. The
device use the adaptive switching technology to eliminating the effects of the capacitances between
the rotor winding and the shaft.
3.7.1. One-Point Earth Fault Protection of Rotor

Single injection mode or dual injection mode can be chose when necessary. The square-wave
source has been injected between the rotor winding and the shaft and the earth resistance and the
earth position can be calculated real-timely. Rotor’s one-point earth protection reflects the dropping
of insulation resistance between rotor winding and the shaft. Wiring diagram for the dual injection
mode rotor earth fault protection is as in Fig. 3.7.1 and wiring diagram for the single injection mode
rotor earth fault protection is as in Fig. 3.7.2.

Rotor’s one point earth protection is specified with two stages of setting values. Stage I, which
is more sensitive, operates to alarm. Stage II, which is the common stage, operates to alarm or
tripping according to the corresponding control character. (if the alarm and tripping in stage II have
been both switched on, the device shall deal it as tripping switched on only).
3.7.2. Two-Point Earth Fault Protection of Rotor

For dual injection mode, when the rotor’s one-point earth protection’s common stage alarm has
operated, after inner additional delay time(15 seconds by default), the rotor two-point earth
protection shall be switched on automatically. After one-point earth, the device shall proceed
measuring the earth resistance and earth position. If the rotor’s another point earth has taken place,
the measured position  shall vary along with it. When  (the variation of  )has exceeded
the setting, the protection device shall identify that the rotor two-point earth fault has occurred, and
the generator shall trip after preset additional delay.
Rotor two-point earth protection could choose, by the control character, to be blocked by the
terminal voltage’s 2nd harmonic wave, so as to promote the reliability of protection.
For single injection mode(“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“1”), rotor two-point earth
protection is no used.
3.7.3. Intelligent function of brush on

39
There is two brush on function in the device, that is: auto brush on function and manual brush
on function. “Cycle_BrushOn_PP_Rot” and “Time_BrushOn_PP_Rot” can be set for the device to
output a brush on connection timing; the device also can use the “Brush on binary input” to output a
brush on connection manual. When the “Brush on binary input” is switch on over 5 minute, the
device judge that the “Brush on binary input” is abnormal, it send the alarm and withdraw the brush
on connection immediately, the alarm have a delay of 10 seconds to return.
3.7.4. Rotor earth injection source abnormal alarm

The device monitors the voltage accuracy of the injection source real-timely, when the voltage
of the injection source is lower than 80% of the rating value, the rotor earth protection is blocked
instantaneous, and the rotor earth injection source abnormal alarm is send by a delay of 10
seconds, the alarm have a delay of 10 seconds to return.
3.8. Generator Low-excitation & Loss-of-excitation

Protection
Generator low-excitation & loss-of-excitation protection reflects the abnormal operation status
resulted from the excitation circuit fault of generator. Low-excitation & loss-of-excitation protection
has many criteria, including: rotor side low voltage, stator side impedance, three-phase
simultaneous low voltage, power output deduction, inverse reactive power, and some blockings
criteria, etc.The voltage come from the terminal PT, the current come from the terminal CT.
1) Criteria of Rotor Side Low Voltage
A) Criterion of Static Stability Limit Excitation Low Voltage (Variable Excitation Low Voltage)
Generator connecting with the system outputs active power P . Excitation voltage necessary
to maintain the static stability limit is U fd  K set P  Pt  ; wherein, Pt is the maximum actual
value of generator’s salient reaction power (2nd value, unit = W); Pt =0 for turbo generators, Pt ≠
0 for hydro generators, users can set it by the guide rule; K set is the setting coefficient (unit = v/w),
and K set is the slope of operation characteristic line on the U fd  P plane, users can set it by the
guide rule too.
Criterion of variable excitation voltage is:
U fd  K set P  Pt  (3.8.1)
The operation characteristic of the above equation is an inclined straight line, as in Fig. 3.8.1.
Advantages of this criterion: In the initial period of loss-of-excitation which shall lead to be out
of step, as U fd shall drop rapidly, the variable excitation low voltage criterion U fd P  could
operate promptly. For loss-of-excitation in normal working conditions, the operation speed of
U fd P  criterion is rapid than the operation speed of static stability margin impedance criterion. So
it can forecast the out-of-step.

B) Criterion of Fixed Excitation Low Voltage

To ensure the reliable operation of loss-of-excitation protection under no-load operation of
generator and the light load operation at P  Pt , the criterion of excitation low voltage (set to be
fixed value) has been added as an auxiliary one, its operation equation being:
U fd  U fd .set (3.8.2)
Wherein: U fd . set is the excitation low voltage setting.

This criterion is designed as a auxiliary criterion of main criteria. During leading phase
operation, this criterion might operate all along, then the setting should be reduced, or adopt the
variable excitation low voltage criterion U fd P  .
2) Criteria of Stator Side Impedance
A) Criterion of Static Stability Boundary Impedance Circle
As in Fig. 3.8.2, the impedance sector Circle criterion reflects the generator’s static stability
boundary, and the 0  wiring method has been adopted ( U ab、Iab ). On the generator’s loss
–of-excitation and out-of-step, the impedance locus measured at terminal shall enter from the
quadrant I into the Circle in quadrant IV in the figure. Meanwhile, the impedance section operation
zone in Fig. 3.8.2 is added with two oblique lines both in 15°inclination with r axis, to neglect the
leading phase operation of generator.

Fig. 3.8.2: Characteristic Diagram of Static Stability Boundary Impedance Circle
The static stability boundary impedance criterion has been specified with two settings: Z1 Azd
and Z1Bzd , both being positive values in the unit of  .
The operation equation is:
U J  IJ  jZ 1Bzd
270  Arg  90 (Phase Comparison Criterion) (3.8.3)
U J  IJ  jZ 1 Azd
Wherein: U J is the phase-to-phase voltage; IJ is the 0 wiring current corresponding with U J

.
Furthermore, impedance criterion also works together with inverse reactive power criterion
Q  Qzd to promote the reliability. The shadow area in the impedance circle operation
characteristic diagram Fig. 3.8.2 is the operation zone.
B) Criterion of Asynchronous Boundary Impedance Circle

On the generator’s fault of loss-of-excitation, the terminal impedance’s final locus shall
definitely enter into the asynchronous boundary impedance circle in Fig. 3.8.3.
The asynchronous boundary impedance criterion has been specified with two settings:
Z 2Azd and Z 2 Bzd , both being positive values in the unit of  .
The operation equation is:
U J  IJ  jZ 2 Bzd
270  Arg  90 (Phase Comparison Criterion) (3.8.4)
U J  IJ  jZ 2 Azd
Wherein: U J is the phase-to-phase voltage; IJ is the 0  wiring current corresponding with
U J .

The asynchronous boundary impedance circle criterion is mainly used in the generator
loss-of-excitation fault detection in close relation with the system. It reflects the final impedance on
the terminal of generator in loss-of-excitation , but may act a bit late.
Furthermore, this impedance criterion also works together with inverse reactive power criterion
Q  Qzd to promote the reliability. The shadow area in the impedance circle operation
characteristic diagram 3.8.3 is the operation zone
C) Criterion of Apple Impedance Circle
It is mainly used as the static stability boundary impedance criterion for hydro generators and
some large turbo generators where X d  X q . Its operation characteristic is as Fig. 3.8.4.

Fig. 3.8.4: Characteristic Diagram of Quasi Static Stability Limit Apple Circle
The quasi static stability apple circle impedance criterion includes three settings: Z1 Azd , Z1Bzd ,
and  ,which is the offset angle for the offset circle’s center and coordinate origin’s connection line
against the vertical axis. Z1 Azd is set permanently to 0; Z1Bzd is a positive value, and could be set
to X d  X q  / 2 ; the setting principle of offset angle  is to get the apple circle’s boundary as
close as possible to the droplet static stability limit curve of hydro generator.
Meanwhile, the quasi static stability impedance section’s operation zone in Fig. 3.8.4 has been
added with two oblique lines in 15°inclination with r axis, to neglect the leading phase operation of
43
generator.
Furthermore, the device’s static stability limit impedance criterion has been specified with three
settings: Z1 Azd , Z1Bzd and  . When  =0, it’s just as the characteristic of static stability limit circle in
Fig. 3.8.2. When Z1 Azd is set to 0, and  ≠0, it is as the characteristic of quasi static stability limit
apple circle in Fig. 3.8.4. It is required not to set Z1 Azd and  to positive values simultaneously,
because at this time the characteristic doesn’t meet the requirement.
This impedance criterion shall work together with inverse reactive power criterion Q  Qzd
to promote the reliability. The shadow area in the impedance circle operation characteristic diagram
3.8.4 is the operation zone.
Impedance criteria is added with many auxiliary criteria to promote the reliability :
a. Uab≥10V
b. Negative voltage U2 < 0.1Un (Generator’s rated voltage)
c. Generator current ≥ 0.1Ie (Generator’s rated current)
3) Bus Low Voltages
The voltage of the criterion can use the main transformer HV side bus voltage or the terminal
voltage by the setting of the control character.
Criterion:
U t  U set.3 ph (3.8.5)
Wherein: U set.3 ph is the bus low voltage setting (phase-to-phase voltage).
When use the main transformer HV side bus voltage, the criterion shall be blocked
by the disconnect of the HV side PT; and when use the terminal PT, the criterion shall
be blocked by the disconnect of the terminal PT
4) Criterion of Power Output Reduction
The turbo generator is allowed to run for a while asynchronously after loss-of-excitation. This
criterion shall monitor the active power of turbo generator. If the average asynchronous power
exceeds the setting, a command shall be sent to reduce the power output of generator, enabling the
turbo generator to proceed with its steady asynchronous operation. The steady asynchronous
operation shall last for 2~15 minutes, during which if the fault could be eliminated, the excitation
shall be recovered, thus avoiding the tripping.
Criterion:
P  Pzd (3.8.6)
After the out-of-step of generator, the exported asynchronous power shall fluctuate within
certain range, so ‘P’ shall be specified to an average value within a period of oscillation.
5) Criterion of Inverse Reactive Power
After loss of excitation, the generator will definitely have inverse reactive power, and during the
whole process of loss-of-excitation , the reactive power shall always be negative values. So this
criterion can be used to detect the loss of excitation: Q  Qzd , wherein the setting of Qzd should
enable the avoiding of leading phase operation zone of generator.
6) Blocking Criterion
1. Criterion of No Connected to the Power Grid Blocking
During the speed and voltage lifting process before generator being connected to the power
grid, and also the speed and voltage dropping process after generator being slipped, in order to
44
ensure the loss-of- excitation protection not to operate by accident, the loss-of-excitation
protection shall switched on only when the generator has been connected to the power grid, when
the generator has not been connected to the power grid, the protection shall be blocked.
2. Criterion of Negative Sequence Current
I 2  I 2 set (3.8.7)
I 2 set is usually set to (1.2 ~ 1.4) I 2  , wherein I 2  is the generator’s long-termly allowed
negative sequence current. When this criterion has been satisfied, the loss-of-excitation
protection shall be blocked transiently. It shall return after 8~10s to cancel the blocking.
This criterion has been set to avoid the accidental operation of loss-of-excitation protection
under abnormal operation situation with no loss of excitation.
7) Illustration of Loss-of-excitation Protection Logic
The device is provided with 1 alarm stage and 4 stages of loss-of-excitation protection
functions, wherein stage I of loss-of-excitation protection operates on the power output reduction,
section II operates on tripping via bus voltage low, stage III could switch to the backup excitation or
tripping, and stage IV operates on tripping via relatively long time delay. Control characters are
provided for each stage of protection.

3.9. Generator Reverse Power Protection

Reverse power protection is designed for turbo generators. When the main steam valve of
turbo generator has been suddenly closed for any reason, if the output breaker hasn’t been tripped,
the generator shall operate as a motor. Because of the lack of wind, the turbo generator’s tail vane
might overheat to damage the turbo generator. So this condition is usually not allowed to last long
(the reverse power operation time is usually stipulated to be less than 3 minutes). The reverse
power protection shall work in this case. This protection is also necessary to gas turbine generator
47
and diesel generator, aiming to eliminate the risk of explosion and burning of un-burnt materials.
1) Principles of Protection
Reverse power protection reflects the size of active power absorbed by generator from the
system. The voltage comes from generator terminal PT, and current comes from terminal CT.
Active power is calculated by two-wattmeter method:
P  Re U AB IˆA  U BC Iˆc  (3.9.1)

Operation criterion:
P   Pset (3.9.2)

Fig. 3.9.1: Operation Characteristic of Reverse Power Protection

The protection is specified with 2 definite times, including t1 operating on signal after a short
delay time, and t 2 operating on splitting after a long delay time. Reverse power protection shall be
blocked by the generator terminal PT disconnection.
2) Reverse Power Protection in Program Tripping
The device is also provided with a set of program tripping reverse power protection, which is
used for generator’s program tripping.
Program tripping is an effective measure to prevent the potential speeding damage to the turbo
generator during shutting down. The tripping method: After the abnormal operation protections such
as manual shutting down, chained shutting down, or against overload, over excitation, and
loss-of-excitation etc. have operated, the first means is not to trip the generator-transformer unit
breaker but to close the main steam valve, use the program tripping reverse power protection to
ascertain the main steam valve has been shut and the reverse power protection has operated, and
then split and de-excitate.
Compared with normal reverse power protection, program tripping reverse power protection
has the features: (1) It shall be blocked by main steam valve position contact; (2) It is specified only
one definite time. The power settings and setting time are also different between them (see setting
guide rule).

3.10. Generator Stator Symmetric Overload Protection

Generator stator symmetric overload protection is for the stator winding abnormal working
condition of overcurrent which is resulted from symmetric overload or outer faults. It reflects the
average overheating status of stator winding. Protection operation quantities come from the
maximum phase current of generator terminal and the neutral point. The protection includes definite
time overload and inverse time overload.
1) Principles of the protection
Definite time overload protection is specified with 1 stage of tripping and 1 stage of alarm, both
can be switched on / off by control character.
(3.10.1)
I  I op
Wherein: I is the maximum three-phase current, and I op is definite time setting.
Inverse time overload shall be set by the overcurrent capacity allowed by the stator winding; its
operation characteristic is in the following relationship:
K tc K tc
t ＝ (3.10.2)
I  (1  ) ( I I gn ) 2  (1  )
2
*
Wherein: K tc is stator winding overload constant. I * is a per-unit value based on the
generator stator’s 2nd rated current I gn . I gn is calculated by the parameter settings of generator
system. t is the allowed persisting time.  is heat dissipation effect coefficient related to the
temperature rise characteristic and temperature margin of stator winding.
For the fluctuation of load current, variation of current in oscillations, and the inconsistent
49
current through the generator during the voltage recovery process after short circuit cutting, the
stator winding shall experience the alteration of heat fevering and dissipating. Inverse time
characteristic could help simulate the process as it is: The heat accumulation shall start after
protection pickup; heat accumulation won’t disappear quickly after recovery of current, but slowly by
dissipating; if now the current increases again, the previous heat accumulation shall be the initial
value this time.
Operation criterion of inverse time:
K tc
t (3.10.3)
( I I gn ) 2  (1  )
The operation characteristic consists of three parts: a) upper limit of definite time, b) inverse
time, and c) lower limit of definite time. Show as follows.

insufficient to get the inverse time part (AB section in the figure), it shall operate by the lower
definite time limit t 4 (longest delay). For currents between them, it shall operate along the inverse
time curve.
Inverse time overload protection operates on splitting or program tripping.

3.11. Generator Negative Sequence Overload Protection

Generator negative sequence overload protection aims mainly to the negative sequence
overcurrent resulted from the asymmetric overload and non full phase operation of generator, and
outer asymmetric faults, which shall lead to the abnormal operation situation of generator rotor
surface overheating; it can also work as the backup protection against the asymmetric fault of
system. This protection consists of definite time and inverse time negative sequence overloads, and
the operation quantities come from the minimum negative sequence current of generator terminal
and the neutral point.
1) Principles of the protection
This device is specified with two stages of definite time negative sequence overload
protections, including stage I of alarm, operating on signals, and stage II of tripping.
Operation criterion of definite time:
I 2  I 2op (3.11.1)
I I
Wherein: 2 is the negative sequence current, and 2 op is the definite time setting.
Operation characteristic of inverse time negative sequence overload protection is decided by
the negative sequence overcurrent capacity allowed by the rotator surface, which is provided by the
generator manufacturer.
A
t (3.11.2)
I  I 22
2
2*
Wherein: I 2* is the per-unit value of generator sequence current (based on the generator
stator’s 2nd rated current I gn , which is calculated by the generator system’s parameter
settings). I 2  is the per-unit value of generator’s long termly allowed negative sequence current
(based on the generator stator’s rated current I gn ). ‘A’ is the time constant for the rotor surface’s
tolerance to the negative sequence current.
Characteristic curve of protection consists of three parts: a) upper limit of definite time, b)
51
inverse time, and c) lower limit of definite time. See Fig. 3.11.1 for more details.
When the generator negative sequence current (actual value) exceeds the upper limit setting
I 2up , it shall operate on the upper definite time limit t3 (shortest delay). When the negative
sequence exceeds the lower limit pickup I 2 dn , but is insufficient to get the inverse time part (AB
section in the figure), it shall operate by the lower definite time limit t 4 (longest delay). For currents
between them, it shall operate on the inverset time curve.
Negative sequence inverse time overload protection could help simulate the rotator’s heat
accumulation process, and could also simulate the dissipating process. When the negative
sequence current exceeds the lower limit pickup (above A point in the operation characteristic curve
in the figure), the inverse time part shall pickup and accumulate. If the negative sequence current is
lower than I 2  , the rotor’s heat accumulation shall reduce gradually by the dissipating process. If
the negative sequence current increases again, the heat accumulation shall proceed based on the
current one.
Inverse time negative sequence overload protection operates on alarm or tripping.

3.12. Generator Rotor Winding Overload Protection

Generator rotor overload protection reflects the average overheating status of excitation
winding. The protection quantities could be the three-phase AC current(Low side CT for excitation
transformer or terminal CT for excitation generator) before rectifying (50Hz or 100Hz) or the DC
current of excitation winding.It could be chose by the AC/DC selection control character. This
protection consists of rotor definite / inverse time overloads.
3.12.1. Principes of the protection

Definite time rotor overload protection is specified with 1 stage of tripping and 1 stage of alarm,
both being switched on / off by control character.
I fd  I fd .op
(3.12.1)
Wherein: I fd is the maximum (1st) DC current of excitation winding, or the maximum (2nd)
three-phase current before rectifying. I fd .op is the definite time setting (set to the 1st value when DC
quantity is introduced, or 2nd value when AC quantity is introduced).
Inverse time overload shall be set by the overheating condition allowed by the rotor winding; its
operation characteristic is:
K K
t ＝ (3.12.2)
I 2
fd*  (1  ) ( I fd I fdn ) 2  (1  )
Wherein:’ K ’ is the overload constant of rotor winding.’ I fd ’ is the per-unit current value of
generator rotor (based on the rotor’s rated current I fdn , which could be set to the 1st value when
DC quantity is introduced, or 2nd value when AC quantity is introduced). ‘t’ is the allowed persisting
time.’  ’ is heat dissipation effect coefficient related to the temperature rise characteristic and
temperature margin of rotor winding.
53
Inverse time characteristic can help relatively well simulate the heating and heat dissipating
process of rotor. The heat accumulation shall start after protection pickup; heat accumulation won’t
disappear immediately after recovery of current, but slowly by dissipating; if now the current
increases again, the previous heat accumulation shall be the initial value this time.

When the rotor current exceeds the upper limit setting I up , it shall operate by the upper

insufficient to get the inverse time part, it shall operate by the lower definite time limit t 4 (longest
delay). For currents between them, it shall operate along the inverse time curve.
Inverse time rotor’s overload protection acts on splitting or de-excitating.

3.13. Generator Out-of-Step Protection

Out-of-step protection aims mainly at large generators of 300MW and above (especially large
turbo generators). Large generators always form a unit connection with transformers. Upon system
oscillation, the oscillation center usually locate near the generator terminal, which shall endanger
the generator, transformer, and even the whole system, so out-of-step protection is critical to large
generators.
3.13.1. Principles of the protection

Out-of-step protection reflects the asynchronous operation resulted from the out-of-step
oscillation of generator. The protection has adopted the three impedance elements, which are
based on the terminal’s apparent impedance variation trace. The impedance element consists of
the terminal U ab and I ab .
Typical operation characteristic of three impedance elements is as in Fig. 3.13.1.

Fig. 3.13.1: Characteristic of Three Elements Out-of-Step Protection
Impedance element Z 1 is the lens characteristics, and its inner angle  can be set.
Impedance element Z 2 is the shielding device characteristics, i.e. the spindle of the lens, and its
dip angle  can be set. Combination of both characters divides the impedance plane into I, II, III,
and IV zones. On the out-of-step oscillation of generator (or motor), the impedance trace shall go
through the four zones then back to the initial zone (I→II→III→IV→I, or IV→III→II→I→IV).
Furthermore, the out-of-step impedance’s trace varies much slower than in the short circuit fault. So
when the impedance trace has met the requirements above and has stayed in each zone for more
than one time limit, the protection shall judge it as generator (or motor)’s out-of-step oscillation.
Each sequential moving through shall add 1 to the pole slipping count of protection; when the set
times has been reached, the protection shall operate.
Z
Impedance element 3 is the reactance characteristic, a straight line vertical to the lines
spindle. It divides the operation zone into two parts: the external stage above the line and the
internal stage below the line. If the impedance trace running sequentially the four zones is below
the impedance line, the oscillation center shall be regarded to be within the generator-transformer
unit; if above it, the oscillation center shall be regarded to be out of the unit. Pole slipping times on
both occasions can be set individually, by which the external and internal out-of-step shall be
distinguished. Both can be set by the control character to operate on alarm or tripping (if alarm and
tripping are switched on simultaneously, it shall be regarded as a tripping stage by default by the
device).
To avoid breaker tripping on serious conditions near the power angle   180 , out-of-step
protection shall choose automatically the allowed angle of tripping, and shall be added with large
current tripping blocking function, which shall ensure the safe splitting of generator.
This protection is also specified with negative current blocking criterion, which could be
switched on/off by control character.

3.14.1. Nonsynchronous Impact Protection
To avoid the generator start asynchronous when power on again after abnormal lost voltage.
The device provide the nonsynchronous impact protection, and consists of the maximum
three-phase line voltage U max of generator terminal PT. The protection consists of low voltage
component, reverse power component and blocking component of breaker position. The protection
have one stage of tripping with delay time to trip.
The breaker position can be chose by the control character “SELECT_POS_NSI”, it will use
the terminal breaker position when set to “1”, and will use the main transformer’s HV side breaker
position when set to “0”.
To avoid the accidential operation when PT disconnect, nonsynchronous impact protection
shall be blocked by the disconnect of terminal PT, the minimum threshold of three-phase line
voltage shall be setted simultaneously, nonsynchronous impact protection must switch on only
when all of the three-phase line voltage are larger than 0.1Un.

3.15. Generator Abnormal Frequency Protection

Low frequency running of generator shall lead to the low frequency resonance of turbo
generator, resulting in the fatigue damage of turbo generator’s vane. Accumulation of these
irreversible fatigue damages to a certain degree would lead to the serious accident of vane & Larkin
breaking. So low frequency (accumulation) protection is necessary to large turbo generator.
Abnormal frequency protection also includes over-frequency (accumulation) protection.
3.15.1. Principles of the protection

The protection is specified with 4 stages of low frequency, 3 stages of low frequency
accumulation, 2 stages of over frequency, and 1 stage of over frequency accumulation. Frequency
range is divided by frequency settings f1 ~ f 6 . All settings should ensure
58
f 6  f 5  50Hz  f1  f 2  f 3  f 4 , otherwise the setting shall be reported wrong.
Dividing of protection in each stage:
 Stage I of low frequency: f  f1 ; Stage I of low frequency accumulation: f1  f  f 2 ;
 Stage II of low frequency: f  f 2 ; Stage II of low frequency accumulation: f 2  f  f 3 ;
 Stage III of low frequency: f  f 3 ; Stage III of low frequency accumulation: f 3  f  f 4 ;
 Stage IV of low frequency: f  f 4 ;
 Stage I of over frequency: f  f 5 ; Stage I of over frequency accumulation: f 6  f  f 5 ;
 Stage II of over frequency: f  f 6
Operation criterion of low / over frequency stages: Generator’s single time operating time in
abnormal frequency exceeds the setting values. Operation criterion of low / over frequency
accumulation stages: Generator’s accumulated operating time in abnormal frequency exceeds the
setting values. All stages above shall act on alarm or tripping by the choice of control character. The
protection logic is as in Fig. 3.15.1.
The inputing voltage of this protection is the generator terminal’s phase-to-phase voltage U ab .
This protection shall be blocked by the non-current criterion and the output breaker’s auxiliary
contact. The abnormal frequency protection shall quit automatically before generator is connected
to the power grid.

3.16. Generator Accidental Energization Protection (Incl.

Fracture Flashover Protection)
Generator accidental energization protection works at the main breaker’s accidental closing in
the generator turning gear status. Since the main breaker fracture flashover is also characterized as
accidental energization, its protection principle is also included in this section. The voltage comes
from generator terminal PT, and current comes from terminal CT.
3.16.1. Principles of Accidental Energization Protection

When the generator is turning gear or stopped, if the output breaker is closed by accident, the
system’s three-phase fundamental voltage shall be suddenly added onto the terminal, leading to the
asynchronous pickup of generator. Then, the rotating magnetic field generated in the air gap by the
(positive sequence) current delivered by the system to the generator stator winding would induce in
the rotor body the fundamental or nearly fundamental currents, which shall harm the rotor by getting
it overheated.
This principle divides the accidental energization into two stages. Stage 1: If the accidental
closing occurs in shutdown, turning gear, or accelerated pickup, but the magnetic field switch isn’t
closed and the terminal has no voltage, or, though the magnetic field switch is closed but the
frequency is low, during which the generator can’t be connect to the power grid, and the accidental
closing is definitely happening as long as current exists in the stator, then apply prompt tripping.
Stage 2: When the unit starts before entering into the power grid, the output breaker is open, the
magnetic switch is closed, and certain frequency exists, the stator current criterion shall quit, and
the impedance criterion shall be used to distinguish the normal entering into the power grid and
accidental energization.
Energization protection shall quit automatically after the generator has entered into the power
grid, and run automatically after splitting. The logic of protection is as Fig. 3.16.2
This protection distinguishes accurately the validation of excitation by the “AND” gate of the
simultaneous low voltage on the three phases of terminal and the contact of magnetic switch, and
also distinguishes accurately the entering into the power grid by the the “AND” gate of non-current
status of the three-phases of output breaker and the contact of output breaker. The current and
breaker position can be chose by the control character”SELECT_CT_POS_Err_C”, it will use the
terminal current and breaker position when set to “1”, and will use the main transformer’s HV side
current and breaker position when set to “0”.
3.16.2. Criteria of impedance of the terminal of generator

The low-impedance criterion of the generator terminal adopts the 0  connection mode, and the
impedance component is constituted by the generator terminal Phase to Phase Voltage and
Current U ab and I ab . The impedance characteristic is shown in Figure 3.16.1. In the figure, ZT is
the setting ZT_Pos_AccEne_Gen; ZF is the setting ZF_Opp_AccEne_Gen, the sensitive angle of
the impedance element is 85°.

3.16.4. Principle of Breaker Fracture Flashover Protection

During generator’s entering into the power grid, when the voltage directions on both sides of
breaker is in 180º, the fracture shall tend to have flashover. Only one or two phases breaker fracture
flashover has been included, i.e. three-phase flashover hasn’t been considered.
Criterion:
1) Breaker’s three-phase contact are all open;
2) Negative overcurrent element has operated;
3) Generator has been added certain excitation, and the terminal voltage has exceeded one
certain value.
61
The negative current and breaker position can be chose by the control character”
SELECT_CT_POS_Cutf”, it will use the terminal current and breaker position when set to “1”, and
will use the main transformer’s HV side current and breaker position when set to “0”.
The protection operates on de-excitation and breaker failure, and shall share the software /
hardware linking pieces with accidental energization protection.

Startup / shutdown protection works against the generator-transformer unit phase-to-phase
faults and stator earth faults when the generator increases its speed and excitation, but hasn’t been
connected to the power grid.
1) Configuration of Protection
During the startup or shutdown process of generator, the stator’s voltage frequency is very low,
so the protection has adopted the special algorithm to measure the frequency accurately, in order to
ensure the reliability of the protection during this process.
The switching-on of startup/shutdown protection shall be blocked by frequency element; the
protection shall quit automatically when the frequency exceeds the setting threshold.
The switching-on of startup/shutdown protection shall be blocked by the condition of he
generator connected to the power grid, the protection shall switched on only when the generator
has not been connected to the power grid.

3.18. Over Excitation Protection

Generator (transformer) could be over excited during the period of voltage rising or frequency
reducing. This device has been provided with two optional sets of over excitation protections for
generator and main transformer. For generators of 300MW and above, if the generator and main
transformer have no breaker between them, they could share one set of over excitation protection,
and the setting shall be specified by the one between generator and transformer which is of lower
excitation. If they have a breaker between, they shall be configured with one set of over excitation
protection each, and the settings shall be specified individually by the various allowed over
excitation multiple of each machine.
Over excitation protection includes definite and inverse time over excitation protections.
Multiple of over excitation can be calculated by the equation below:
n  U* / f* (3.18.1)
Wherein: U * and f * are respectively the per-unit voltage and per-unit frequency of generator
terminal (or HV side of main transformer).
Generator’s over excitation protection is configured at its terminal, and the main transformer’s
over excitation protection is only configured at its HV side.
3.18.1. Definite Time Over Excitation Protection

Generator’s definite time over excitation protection is specified with 2 stages of tripping settings
and 1 stage of alarm setting. Each stage shall be switched on/off by the choice of control character.
3.18.2. Inverse Time Over Excitation Protection

Over excitation’s main harm is the heat effect, so the concept of effective value is used to
calculate the multiple of inverse time over excitation (n), i.e.:
1 T
n
T 0
n 2 (t )dt (3.18.2)
Wherein: ‘T’ is the time since initiation of over excitation till then; n t  is the measuring multiple
of over excitation, a function of time. Thus the over excitation measuring multiple calculated by
63
equation (3.18.2) shall include both the current over excitation information, and the accumulated
over excitation information in each stage since over excitation.
The main feature of the inverse time excitation protection is that its operation characteristic can
better match with the over excitation multiple curves of generators (or transformers).
Characteristic of inverse time is as in Fig. 3.18.1.

Fig. 3.18.1: Operation Characteristic of Inverse Time Over Excitation

Operation equation of inverse time:
n  n(i ) (3.18.3)
Wherein:’ n ’ is the valid over excitation multiple of calculation. t (i ) is the respective
accumulation time of an over excitation, while n(i ) is achieved by t (i ) and inverse time curve.
The given inverse time operation characteristic curve is specified by 7 groups of input settings
(No. 1~7 group).
To ensure the inverse time over excitation protection’s operation characteristic to match the
generator (transformer)’s over excitation capacity, the 7 groups of inverse time over excitation
settings should be specified by the over excitation curve provided by the manufacturer of generator
(or transformer). When setting the values, mind the validity of following relationships:
“Setting value of inverse time over excitation protection stage 1” < “Setting value of inverse
time over excitation protection stage 2” < … < “Setting value of inverse time over excitation
protection stage 7”;
“Time limit of inverse time over excitation protection stage 1” > “Time limit of inverse time over
excitation protection stage 2” > … > “Time limit of inverse time over excitation protection stage 7”.

3.19. Low Impedance Protection

Impedance protection can be set when the current and voltage protection can not meet the
requirements of sensitivity or the requirements on the matching of protection in system network. It
works as the backup phase-to-phase protection of generator and transformer, or the backup
phase-to-phase protection of HV side bus and adjacent lines.
3.19.1. Generator Low Impedance Protection

Wherein: U J is a phase-to-phase voltage. IJ is the current corresponding with U J (0 degree
connection). Impedance’s characteristic is as in Fig. 3.19.1, wherein, ‘Za’ is the impedance pointing
to the outside of the generator(that is the transformer), ‘Zb’ is the impedance pointing to generator,
and the sensitivity angle of impedance element is 80°. By specifying various impedance settings,

Main transformer’s HV side is configured with 2 stage 2 definite time low impedance protection.
Similar with generator low impedance protection, it adopts also 0º connection method by the
differences of line voltage and respective phase current, i.e. U ab & Iab , U bc & Ibc , U ca & Ica
constitute the outputs via “OR” gate of three impedance elements. This protection is installed on the
HV side, reflects the short circuit faults in the LV side and the lead line of transformer, and works as
backup protection of these equipments. The device’s CT polarity is connected with the positive
polarity on the bus side (polarities as in the Main Wiring Diagram 1.1.1). The impedance

characteristic is as in Fig. 3.19.1, wherein, ‘Za’ is impedance pointing to transformer, Zb is
impedance pointing to bus, and the sensitivity angle of impedance element is 80°.

HV bus bar, and adjacent lines.
3.20.1. Generator Composite Voltage Overcurrent Protection

Composite voltage overcurrent protection works mainly as the phase-to-phase protection of
generator. The voltage comes from generator terminal PT, and current comes from neutral point CT.
1) Composite Voltage Element
Composite voltage element consists of the “OR” gate of phase-to-phase low voltage and
negative sequence voltage elements, and is switched on/off by the control character of “Composite
Voltage Overcurrent X Stage Blocking via Composite Voltage”. The control character of “1” means
this stage’s overcurrent protection is blocked by composite voltage element, and “0” means this
stage’s overcurrent protection is not blocked by composite voltage element. The composite voltage
element is:
 U  U set
 (3.20.1)
U 2  U 2 set
Wherein: U is the smallest one among the 3 line voltages of terminal. U set is the low voltage
setting. U 2 is the negative sequence voltage. U 2 set is the negative sequence voltage setting.
2) Three-Phase Overcurrent Element
Operation equation of overcurrent protection:
I  I set (3.20.2)
Wherein: I is the phase current. I set is the operation current setting.
67
3) Overcurrent with Memory
For a self-excited generator, the terminal current shall decay after short circuit faults. The fault
current may get smaller than the overcurrent setting before the output of overcurrent protection
operation, which shall get the protection refuse to act. Therefore, this device has been designed by
overcurrent with memory(The memory time is slightly greater than the time delay), and could be
switched on/off by the control character of “Overcurrent with Memory Function On/Off”.
Concept of realizing composite voltage overcurrent with memory: After the actions of
composite voltage element and three-phase overcurrent element, it shall act to tripping and output
after delay t. Check the three-phase current before reaching the setting time. If the overcurrent
element returns for the short circuit current decay, the self-sustaining circuit of “AND” & “OR” gates
shall keep the protection device from returning in the midway (See Fig. 3.20.1 for the logic).
Note: Overcurrent with memory shall quit automatically when the composite voltage element
quits.
4) PT Disconnection’s Impact on Composite Voltage Overcurrent Protection
The device has specified the control character of “PT Disconnection Protection On/Off” to
control the operation principle of composite overcurrent protection at PT disconnection. On
identification of PT disconnection or abnormality, the overcurrent protection shall be blocked at the
option of setting. If the setting of “PT Disconnection Protection On/Off” is “1”, the composite voltage
element shall not open, and composite overcurrent protection shall be blocked; when the setting is
“0”, the composite voltage element shall open directly, and the protection shall be purely
overcurrent protection.

3.20.2. Transformer Composite Voltage (Directional) Overcurrent

Protection
Transformer composite voltage (directional) overcurrent protection works mainly as the
phase-to-phase backup protection of main transformer, step-down transformer, and excitation
68
transformer.
1) Composite Voltage Element
Composite voltage element consists of the “OR” gate of phase-to-phase low voltage and
negative sequence voltage elements, and is switched on/off by the control character of “Composite
Voltage Overcurrent X Stage Blocking via Composite Voltage”. The control character of “1” means
this stage’s overcurrent protection is blocked by composite voltage element, and “0” means this
stage’s overcurrent protection is not blocked by composite voltage element. The composite voltage
element is:
 U  U set
 (3.20.3)
U 2  U 2 set
Wherein: U is the smallest among the 3 line voltages. U set is the low voltage setting. U 2 is the
negative sequence voltage. U 2 set is the negative sequence voltage setting.

2) Three-Phase Overcurrent Element
Operation equation of overcurrent protection:
I  I set (3.20.4)
Wherein: I is the phase current. I set is the operation current setting.

3) Directional Blocking Element
Directional element adopts positive sequence voltage and has a memory. It has no dead zone
upon adjacent three-phase short circuit. The connection mode is 0° connection. The sensitivity
angle (45°) remains unchanged, and the direction can choose to point to transformer or bus. When
“Overcurrent X Stage Points to Bus” is set to “1”, the direction shall point to bus; when set to “0”, the
direction shall point to transformer. Meanwhile, the device is provided with “Overcurrent X Stage
Blocking via Direction” to control every stage’s overcurrent protection to be via directional blocking
or not. When “Overcurrent X Stage Blocking via Direction” is set to “1”, this stage’s overcurrent
protection shall be blocked via direction; when set to “0”, this stage’s overcurrent protection shall be
blocked not via direction.
Operation characteristic of directional element is as in Fig. 3.20.2. The shadow side is the
operation zone.

4) Overcurrent with Memory
For a self-excited generator, the terminal current shall decay after short circuit faults. The fault
current may get smaller than the overcurrent setting before the output of overcurrent protection
operation, which shall get the protection refuse to act. So this device has been designed by
overcurrent with memory(The memory time is slightly greater than the time delay), and could be
69
switched on/off by the control character of “Overcurrent with Memory Function On/Off”.
Concept of realizing composite voltage overcurrent with memory: After the actions of
composite voltage element and three-phase overcurrent element, it shall act to tripping and output
after delay t. Check the three-phase current before reaching the setting time. If the overcurrent
element returns for the short circuit current decay, the self-sustaining circuit of “AND” & “OR” gates
shall keep the protection device from returning in the midway (See Fig. 3.20.3 for the logic).
Note: Overcurrent with memory shall quit automatically when the composite voltage element
quits.
5) Pickup via Other Side’s Composite Voltage
When the sensitivity of this (HV) side’s composite voltage element can’t satisfy the
requirements, the other side’s voltage can be introduced as blocking voltage at the option of setting
control character. For example, for transformer HV side backup protection, the device has specified
control character like “Block via LV Side Composite Voltage” to control if the overcurrent protection
shall be blocked via other side’s composite voltage. When “Block via LV Side Composite Voltage” is
set to “1”, the HV side composite voltage overcurrent protection can pick up via LV side composite
voltage. When set to “0”, the HV side composite voltage overcurrent protection shall pick up not via
LV side composite voltage. They are of “OR” relation, i.e. if composite voltage element on any side
acts, the composite voltage blocking shall open.
6) PT Disconnection’s Impact on Composite Voltage Element & Directional Element
The device has specified the setting control character of “PT Disconnection Protection On/Off
Principle”. On identification of PT disconnection, the device could choose, by the setting control
character, to open or not the composite voltage element and directional element now on local side.
If “PT Disconnection Protection On/Off Principle” is set to “1”, the composite voltage element and
directional element on local side shall be viewed as unsatisfying, but the overcurrent protection on
local side could be blocked via other side’s composite voltage (if the other side’s composite voltage
blocking is switched on). If set to “0”, the composite voltage element and directional element on
local side is satisfying, so the composite voltage directional overcurrent protection shall be purely
overcurrent protection.
On device’s identification of PT disconnection, the composite voltage element on local side
wouldn’t pick up the other side’s composite voltage overcurrent element(s).
7) Other Notes
All sides shall adopt the same composite voltage directional overcurrent protection logic, and
vary only on the setting in main transformer’s HV side, and step-down transformer & excitation
transformer’s HV & LV sides.
For step-down transformer composite voltage (directional) overcurrent protection, the HV & LV
sides may choose, at the option of control character, to act via composite voltage element, and to
possess current with memory function.
To excitation transformer (generator) composite (directional) overcurrent protection, in the
excitation transformer mode, the overcurrent protection shall consist of the introduced excitation
transformer’s HV side three-phase currents; in the excitation generator mode, the overcurrent
protection shall introduce generator’s three-phase currents. Acting via composite voltage element
and the current with memory function shall be chosen by control character.

3.21. Transformer Zero Sequence (Directional) Overcurrent
Protection
Transformer zero sequence (directional) overcurrent protection is the backup protection for the
earth faults of neutral earth transformer or its adjacent elements. The device could specify, by the
setting control character, if the zero sequence overcurrent shall be blocked by direction, zero
voltage, or harmonic wave.
1) Zero Sequence Current Adopted by Zero Sequence Overcurrent Element
Zero sequence current adopted by zero sequence overcurrent element can be self-produced,
or the 2nd current of neutral zero sequence CT. Control character of “Use Self Produced Zero
Sequence Current“ is specified for the option of user. When set to “1”, the zero sequence
overcurrent element shall use the self produced one; wen set to “0”, it shall use transformer neutral
point zero sequence CT current.
2) Zero Sequence Current & Voltage Adopted by Zero Sequence Directional Element
To prevent the directional element from wrong judgment for wiring fault, the device has
specified: the zero sequence directional element’s zero sequence current shall be always self
produced, and the zero sequence voltage shall be also always self produced.
3) Zero Sequence Directional Element
Zero sequence current and voltage used by the device’s directional element are both self
produced, have persistent sensitivity angle (75°), and could choose to point to transformer or bus.
When “Zero Sequence Overcurrent X Stage Points to Bus” is set to “1”, it shall point to bus; when
set to “0”, it shall point to transformer. Meanwhile, the device is specified with “Zero Sequence
Overcurrent X Stage Blocking via Direction” to control if all stages of zero sequence overcurrent
protection shall be blocked via direction. When set to “1”, the local stage’s zero sequence
overcurrent protection shall be blocked via direction; when set to “0”, the local stage’s zero
sequence overcurrent protection shall be blocked not via direction.
Operation characteristic of directional element is as in Fig. 3.21.1.

4) Harmonic Wave Blocking Element
To prevent the impact from transformer sympathetic Inrush on the zero sequence overcurrent
protection, the device is provided with harmonic wave restraint blocking measures. When more
than certain ratio of harmonic wave exists in the zero sequence current, the zero sequence
overcurrent protection shall be blocked. The device is provided with the control character of “Zero
Sequence Overcurrent X Stage Blocking via Harmonic Wave” to control if the zero sequence
overcurrent shall be blocked via harmonic wave. When set to “1”, local stage’s zero sequence
overcurrent shall be blocked via harmonic wave; when set to “0”, local stage’s zero sequence
73
overcurrent shall be blocked not via harmonic wave.
5) Zero Voltage Blocking Element
The device is provided with the control character of “Zero Sequence Overcurrent X Stage
Blocking via Zero Voltage” to control if the zero sequence overcurrent shall be blocked via zero
voltage. When set to “1”, local stage’s zero sequence overcurrent shall be blocked via zero voltage;
when set to “0”, local stage’s zero sequence overcurrent shall be blocked not via zero voltage.
Note: Zero sequence voltage used in the zero sequence voltage blocking shall be always PT
open triangle voltage.
6) PT Disconnection’s Impact on Zero Sequence Directional Element & Zero Voltage
Blocking Element
The device has specified the setting control character of “PT Disconnection Protection On/Off
Principle” to control the operation to zero sequence directional element and zero voltage blocking
element in PT disconnection. When set to “1”, the device shall judge that on local side’s PT
disconnection, the local side’s zero sequence directional element and zero voltage locking element
are not satisfying; when set to “0”, the device shall judge that on local side’s PT disconnection, the
local side’s zero sequence directional element and zero voltage locking element shall be both
satisfying, and the zero sequence voltage blocking’s zero sequence direction overcurrent protection
shall be purely zero sequence overcurrent protection.
7) Other Notes
Zero sequence current adopted by step-down transformer LV side zero sequence overcurrent
element is the 2nd current of externally produced zero sequence CT on LV side of step-down
transformer. Zero sequence overcurrent shall not be blocked by direction, zero voltage and
harmonic wave, and is purely zero sequence overcurrent protection.

main transformer neutral point via gap earth or small reactance earth. Gap overvoltage protection
works as the backup protection run for transformer neutral point via non earth, gap earth , or small
reactance earth. The device is provided with zero sequence overvoltage alarm, zero sequence
overvoltage protection, gap overcurrent protection, and zero sequence overvoltage gap overcurrent,
each of which could be switched individually on/off by software control character.
1) Zero Sequence Overvoltage & Gap Zero Sequence Overcurrent Element
Zero sequence voltages used in zero overvoltage alarm/protection is from the local side’s open
triangle zero sequence voltage. Zero sequence current used in gap zero sequence overcurrent
protection is from local side’s gap zero sequence CT.
2) Gap Protection’s “OR” Logic
Since zero sequence overvoltage and gap current may appear alternatively in breaking the gap
through, the device has been specified with the control character of “Gap Protection ‘OR’ Logically
Switched On”. When set to “1”, the zero sequence overvoltage element and gap overcurrent
element shall maintain each other after operation, then the operation time setting of gap protection
shall equal to the setting of gap overcurrent protection. If set to “0”, the zero overvoltage element

3.25. Breaker’s Selective Large Current Blocking Trip

On protection tripping resulted from fault of generator-transformer unit, if the breaking capacity
of breaker (if available) on the generator terminal or the HV side of step-down transformer is
insufficient, tripping of this breaker should be blocked first. After the other breaker and de-excitation
switch etc. have tripped off, finish the process of tripping off when the fault current through the
breaker is less than the setting.
The device has adopted the following blocking principle: When the protection sends the
tripping command, trip the output of export breaker on the generator terminal or the HV side of
step-down transformer and add minor delay (20ms). On identification of none operation of
respective breaker’s overcurrent breaking element, give it further delay of 20ms, then trip off
direction to finish the tripping. On identification of operation of breaker’s overcurrent breaking
element, trip first the other breakers based on the control character of large current blocking trip,
which would speed cutting off the faults. When large current blocking element has been switched
on, and on identification of the operation of breaker overcurrent element, export a pair of constantly
open connection points and a pair of constantly closed connection points, which would match the
mechanical protection equipment to finish the tripping.
When breaker’s large current breaking function quits, the protection shall trip without output
and with minor delay.
The device is equipped with two sets of selective large current trip blocking on the generator
terminal and the HV side of step-down transformer for the option by user.

operation of the protection when the binary input is disrupted or the optocoupler is damaged, the
device adopt the mode of double binary input, the protection only trip when two binary inputs are all

3.30. PT Disconnection Alarm

1) Criterion 1: For public PT Disconnection
Criterion:
1) Positive voltage is less than 30V, and each phase current exceeds 0.08ln;
2) Negative voltage exceeds 8V;
Any of the above conditions satisfied, protection pickup element not picking-up, local side PT
disconnection alarm shall be reported after 1.25s delay, and the alarm signal shall be sent. When
the voltage as resumed as normal, it shall recover after 10s delay.
PT 1st and 2nd disconnection can be identified but can’t be distinguished.
Note: For generator protection, what is reported shall be “GT PTFail Common Alarm”, or “GT
Spec PTFail Common Alarm”.
2) Criterion 2: For zero sequence voltage type single group PT disconnection (for
generator protection)
Criterion:
Single / double phase TV disconnection: U a  U b  U c  K  3U 0  U set , three-phase
currents are all less than 1.2 I e (K is the balance coefficient, automatically calculated by the device
with system parameters by K=PT 2nd edge / PT zero sequence edge; U set is the inner threshold of
device). Any of the above conditions satisfied, and after 1.25s delay, it shall report “GT PTFail
Single Alarm”, or “GT Spec PTFail Single Alarm”, and block respective protection.
This criterion is used to the identification of generator’s single group PT disconnection, and
could distinguish the common PT and special turn-to-turn PT’s 2nd disconnection. But it requires to
introduce both the PT’s three-phase voltage, and the open  zero sequence voltage.
Note: Polarity of open  zero sequence voltage should accord with that of self produced zero
sequence voltage.
3) Criterion 3: For voltage balanced PT disconnection (for generator protection)
Criterion:
Identification of voltage balanced PT disconnection compares the voltages on the 2nd side of
two groups of PT. When one PT’s 2nd side loses the voltage, the respective protection shall be
blocked, and the disconnection signal shall be sent after 1.25s delay. Wherein, U1ab , U1bc ,
U1ca and U 2ab , U 2bc , U 2ca represents respectively terminal common PT and terminal turn-to-turn
special PT’s line voltages.  u in the inner threshold of device.

The first 4-way of 48V input modules is fixed at “Print”, “Timing”, “Signal reset”, “Enable
maintenance state”, the last way (23 ) is fixed at “Binary input power 48V+ monitor”.
The “Print” terminal is used to start manually to print the latest operation Report. A print button is
generally provided on the protection panel. The print mode—auto or manual—can be set by the
logic set-point “Auto print”; when auto print is selected, the protective device will output it to the
printer immediately following an operation Report, and when manual print is selected, the print
button should be pressed to print the Report.
The“Timing” terminal is used to receive the second pulse contact or OC signal from GPS or other
timing device. The input signal must be passive. See the figure below. RS-485 bus differential
signal timing mode is recommended (see CPU module specifications). In fact, only one of the two
timing modes can be used. The input is not introduced if the bus timing mode is employed.

The “Signal reset” is designed to reset the signal relays keep by the magnetic and the report show
at the LCD, generally, it shall install a signal reset button in the protection panel. Signal reset also
can be remote reset through the communication.
The “Enable maintenance state” terminal is designed to prevent some report from being sent to
CSCS via IEC60870-5-103 communication interfaces during protective device test, which will
interfere the normal running of the dispatching system. On the protection panel is usually provided
with a link “Enable maintenance state”, which will be enabled during device maintenance; in this
case, the operation report will not be uploaded via the communication interfaces during test but it
will not affect the local display and print. The link is disabled during normal running.
The “Binary input power 48V+ monitor” terminals are used for surveillance devices 48V input
whether it is normal.For the 48V power output by the power module, its positive terminal connects
to 48V+(terminal 23) of this module so as to enable that the protective device can monitor whether
the binary input power is normal.

Note:
1.When “SELECT_Prot_Mode_PP_Rot”is set to“1”，the device choose the Ping-pong type rotor earth
protection. “Cycle_BrushOn_PP_Rot”、“Time_BrushOn_PP_Rot”、“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot”，
“ En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot ” and “ En_Manual_PP_Rot ” is no use for the protection ，
“ Cycle_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” and “ Time_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” must be set to the maximum value,
“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot”，“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot” and “En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set
to“0”.
2.When “SELECT_Prot_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“0”，the device choose the injection type rotor earth
protection. The device choose the dual injection mode when“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot”is set to“0”
and choose the single injection mode when “SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“1”.For injection
132
type rotor earth protection, when the generator is no the brushless exciting generator,
“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot”and“En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set to“0”; when the generator is the
brushless exciting generator, “ Cycle_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” 、 “ Time_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” ，
“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot”and“En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set according to actual needs.
3.In order to adapt to the different capacitances between the rotor winding and the shaft, the switch cycle of
the rotor earth protection can be adjusted by the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”,the measuring of the earth
resistance and earth position will no be influenced by the capacitances between the rotor winding and the
shaft. For the different capacitances between the rotor winding and the shaft, time for leakage current to
reach the steady state is different, the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”must be set to escape the transient
process of the leakage current. When the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”is to small and can not escape
the transient process of the leakage current, the calculation error may be large.In order to made the
measurement accuracy meet the requirements, the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”can be adjusted
through the rotor one point earth fault experiment.

The device support two modes to set the tripping matrix settings.
1) Mode 1: Every tripping matrix settings to be setted by “bit”, the device can unfold the tripping
matrix and show like the table above, set the “bit” which the protection need to trip to “1”, and
set the “bit” which the protection needn’t to trip to “0”, the device shall create the hexadecimal
tripping matrix settings between 00000000～00007FFF automaticly.
2) Mode 2: According to the demand of the protection, get the setting value of each output relays
by bit through the table above, and add all the setting value of output relays which set to “1”,
calculate the hexadecimal tripping matrix setting between 00000000～00007FFF artificially,
input the hexadecimal tripping matrix setting to the device directly. When use this modes, the
settings can be check through the bit show at the device and insure correctly.

“ En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot ” and “ En_Manual_PP_Rot ” is no use for the protection ，
“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot”，“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot” and “En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set
to“0”.
2.When “SELECT_Prot_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“0”，the device choose the injection type rotor earth
protection. The device choose the dual injection mode when“SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot”is set to“0”
and choose the single injection mode when “SELECT_Insert_Mode_PP_Rot” is set to“1”.For injection
type rotor earth protection, when the generator is no the brushless exciting generator,
“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot”and“En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set to“0”; when the generator is the
brushless exciting generator, “ Cycle_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” 、 “ Time_BrushOn_PP_Rot ” ，
“En_AutoCheck_PP_Rot”and“En_Manual_PP_Rot” must be set according to actual needs.
3.In order to adapt to the different capacitances between the rotor winding and the shaft, the switch cycle of
the rotor earth protection can be adjusted by the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”,the measuring of the earth
resistance and earth position will no be influenced by the capacitances between the rotor winding and the
shaft. For the different capacitances between the rotor winding and the shaft, time for leakage current to
reach the steady state is different, the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”must be set to escape the transient
process of the leakage current. When the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”is to small and can not escape
the transient process of the leakage current, the calculation error may be large.In order to made the
measurement accuracy meet the requirements, the setting “Cycle_Switch_PP_Rot”can be adjusted
through the rotor one point earth fault experiment.

7. Communication
7.1. General
The chapter introduces the interfaces and protocols used by NSR-376 series line protective device
and CSCS communications. The traditional electric or fiber interfacing Ethernet can be employed
for the device with IEC60870-5-103 or IEC61850 protocol, which can be selected by settings.
Please note the protocol itself is not the focus of the chapter and please refer to the
communication protocols for details. Instead, the chapter focuses on the difference of the device
communication protocols from others.
7.2. Ethernet Communication Interfaces
The device can be provided with up to 3 Ethernet interfaces for communication with CSCS. The
parameters related to Ethernet can be set in the menu “Communication parameter” and see
Chapter 7 for details.
When the traditional Ethernet communication is used, it is recommended to employ CAT5e STP
(see the figure below) to improve the communication reliability; and when optical fiber Ethernet is
used, it is recommended to employ the MMF as the communication medium.
Figure 7.2.1 CAT5e Ethernet STP for Ethernet Cable
Each protective device is connected to the network switch, establishing a star structure. To ensure
reliable communication, it is recommended to employ multi-network redundant communication
mode so that other networks can keep normal communications in case one network
communication interrupts. At the same time, the CSCS is also connected to the network switch so
that the protective device can communicate with CSCS via the network switch. Below is the typical
connection diagram for Ethernet communication with double-network redundant structure.

The Baud rate in Ethernet communication is 10Mbit/s or 100Mbit/s, adaptive. It supinterfaces

IEC60870-5-103 and IEC61850 protocols.
7.3. IEC60870-5-103 Protocol
Ethernet IEC60870-5-103 protocol is a master/slave communication protocol and the protective

device is designed as the slave device in the system. The protocol is developed by Relay
Protection Technologies Branch, Nari Group Corporation based on IEC60870-5-103 protocol. All
the functions are realized by generic classification service command.
The tele-measured data are actively and cyclically uploaded and no interrogation command is
necessary; and the protection calculated events are actively uploaded and the CSCS is
unnecessary to send out the interrogation command.
After successful communication connection is built between the device and the CSCS, the device
will upload all the title information to CSCS during general interrogation.
The device supinterfaces ASDU21 and ASDU10 generic classification service commands. Please
refer to IEC60870-5-103 protocol for details on the two messages.
The device can supinterface the following information (INF) of generic classification service:
1) Control direction

7.4. IEC61850 Protocol
7.4.1. General
IEC61850 consists of a series of “Substation Communication Network and System” standards
prepared by IEC TC57, which are the only international standard for substation automation system
(SAS) based on network communication platform.
The substation communication system is divided into three levels in accordance with
IEC61850—substation level, bay level, and process level. The network between substation level
and bay level employs ACSI to map MMS, TCP/IP Ethernet or fiber network. The network between
bay level and process level employs single-way transmission Ethernet from single point to
multi-point. The intelligent electronic devices in the substation (IED, control & measurement unit
and relay protection) employ consistent protocol to exchange information via network.
IEC61850 builds models for most common device and assemblies. These models define the
common data format, identifiers, behavior and control, e.g., substation and feeder device (such as
CB, voltage regulator and relay protection etc). It is designed with self description capacity,
significantly reducing the data management cost, simplifying data maintenance, shortening
system shutdown time due to configuration error.
The tele-control seamless communication system is based on IEC61850, which can improve
significantly device data integration of IT and automation technology, reduce the cost in works, site
acceptance, running, supervision, diagnosis and maintenance etc, shorten a plenty of time and
increase flexibility in automation system configuration. It settles the inter-operation and protocol
conversion problem in substation automation system. The substation automation device is
designed with self-description, self-diagnosis and plug and play features, improving significantly
system integration and reducing project cost of substation automation system.
The device IEC 61850 is developed based on IEC recommendations and please see IEC 61850
252
for details, which is available at the official website of IEC (http://www.iec.ch).
7.4.2. Introduction to Protocols

The device supinterfaces IEC61850 server terminal functions via Ethernet.
7.4.2.1. MMS Protocol
IEC61850 clearly defines how Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) exchanges real-time
data and supervision information at application level. MMS offers a complete and independent
international standard message specification for real-time data and supervision information
exchange among intelligent electronic devices in network environment.
MMS is aimed to standardize the communication behavior among intelligent sensors, intelligent
electronic devices and intelligent control device in industrial sectors so that inter-operation is
available among the device produced by different manufacturers, simplifying system integration.
MMS consists of five parts—service specification, communication protocol, industrial robot

communication specification, process control communication specification, and digital control
communication specification. MMS is featured by inter-operation and independence of each
industrial system.
MMS is mapped as abstract data service of IEC61850 in IEC61850-8-1.
7.4.2.2. User/Server
It is a connection-oriented communication mode. The connected is initiated by customer end and

controlled by user end. IEC61850 customer end is usually the supervision background in the
substation and the server is often the device in the substation such as relay protective device,
measurement & control device etc.
Peer-to-peer communication
It is a non-connection-oriented high-speed communication mode among substation device (e.g.,

relay protective device, measurement & control device etc.). GOOSE is a peer-to-peer
communication mode.
7.4.2.3. Substation Configuration Language (SCL)
IEC61850-6 defines substation configuration language (SCL) to realize substation inter-operation.

SCL describes the basic functions and accessible information of IEDs and configure the basic
functions and set the running parameters of IEDs, realizing device inter-operation.
Each IED consists of ICD and CID. SLD of substation is stored in SSD. The substation information
is stored in SCD. SCD contains independent IDC and SSD for IED.
7.4.3. Server Data Organization
253
IEC61850 defines an object-oriented method for data and service. One IEC61850 physical device
contains one or more logic devices, and each logic device may contain several logic nodes, and
each logic node may contain many data objects. Each data object consists of data attributes and
data attribute elements. The service at each level is designed with several functions such as read,
write, control commands etc.
Each IED represents an IEC61850 physical device, which contains one logic device and the logic
device contains several logic nodes. The logic node LPHD contains the information of the IED
physical device. The logic node LLN0 contains the information of the IED logic device.
The logic nodes mainly consist of:
 Basic nodes: LLN0 logic node;
 Binary quantities: GGIO logic nodes;
 Analog quantities: MMXU logic nodes;
 Protection logic nodes: PDIF, PDIS, PIOC, PTOC, PTUV, PTUF, PTOV, RBRF, RREC etc.
 Other nodes: LPHD, PTRC, RDRE, GAPC, CSWI, XCBR etc.
See IEC61850 protocol for detailed meaning and corresponding data objects and operation of
each node.
7.4.4. Feature and Configuration of Server

IEC61850 buffer/unbuffer Report control block (BRCB/URCB) is at LLN0 logic node and used to
control transmission of protection trip information, binary position change information and analog
quantities. The Report control block can be configured in IED CID and then sent to the IED via
IEC61850 customer end.
The device supinterfaces MMS document service and permits to send out oscillagraphic records,
event records and other documents.
The device supinterfaces GOOSE service to transmit logic blocking signals and GOOSE trip
signals in peer-to-peer mode.
254

8.3.3. Electrical Connections

The associated codes must be followed during installation. The STP or cable should be employed
to reduce EM interference when necessary.
When the conductor is required of shielding, 360 °shielding should be performed and the
shielding layer should be solidly earthed. The same signal circuit should be mounted in one cable.
Different signal lines should not be set in one cable. The control signal and measuring signal
cable should be separated.
8.3.3.1. CT Circuit
Heavy-duty terminals and M4 screw terminals should be used. For the sake of safety, never open
the secondary circuit of CT.
8.3.3.2. DC Power Supply
The DC power supply can be directly screwed to the Phenix terminals on the rear of the DC
module.
8.3.3.3. I/O Signals
The device is provided with welded terminals so that the user can insert and fix the associated
terminal connector.
For the sake of safety, the insulating bushing should be provided to meet the demand on terminal
259
insulation.
Except EIA (RS) 485 interface, the conductor for connecting welded terminals and heavy-duty
terminals should have its voltage not smaller than the minimum rated voltage (3000Vrms).
8.3.3.4. Protection Earth
The impedance between the protective device earth and the substation earth should meet the
relevant national standards. The yellow-green conductor (sectional area not smaller than 4mm2)
should be used to connect the earth terminal on the power supply module backplate with the earth
copper bar of the protection panel/cubicle. The earth line conductor should be as short as possible.
The optimum conductance should be achieved by various measures. Special emphasis should be
attached to the contact reliability and corrosion resistance.
8.3.3.5. Optical Fiber
The fiber cable should be handled with great care to avoid excessive bending. The minimum
bending radius must be bigger than 15cm for plastic fiber cable and bigger than 25cm for glass
fiber cable. When cable ties are used, they should be loose to avoid damages due to tight ties.
NOTE: To connect or disconnect the fiber, the connector should be inserted or removed
instead of pulling the fiber. The fiber cannot be twisted or excessively bent; otherwise,
potential damages may increase fiber attenuation, resulting in abnormal communication.
8.4. Inspection of External Circuit
Check the related circuit, including the other parts in the secondary system connected to the
protective device. Note the inspection must be made after the protective device is disabled and
the relevant safety measures are taken.
8.4.1. CT Circuit
Check the connections as per wiring diagrams.
The testing items include:
 Polarity check;
 CT circuit current measurement (primary injection current): The connections in the CT circuit
are solid;
 Earth check;
 Check whether CT is earthed at two points in the terminal box of the switchyard and the
260
protection panel/cubicle.
Polarity check can verify the integrity and phase relations of the circuit, which should be
performed on the mounting side of the protective device. The primary injection current test should
be performed from the primary system to the protective device, which can verify CT phase
sequence and connections. The current should be applied at each phase earth and between
phases to measure the phase current and neutral current.
8.4.2. DC Power Supply

Check the DC power supply voltage and make sure it falls in the permissive range in the running
conditions. Check the polarity of the terminals on DC module backplate.
8.4.3. Binary Input Circuit

First, disconnect the binary input signal with the input module and check the input signals. The
polarity of the input electrical signals should be compliant with the specifications of the protective
device.
NOTE: In some cases, the binary input signal power is supplied by external DC auxiliary
power. In this case, the voltage level should be checked before connection; otherwise, it
may damage the protective device. The input state can be viewed on PC with the help of
computer-aided software or on the LCD. After an input is generated, the LCD will be
updated.
8.4.4. Binary Output Circuit

First, disconnect the binary output signal with the output module and check the output signals.
The load and polarity should be compliant with the specifications of the protective device.
8.5. Power on of Device

Figure 9.2.1 Access Path to Display Report
9.2.1. Event Records

Event records consist of self-check report, input position change report, channel state report and
other report. The device can save 1024 self-check report and input position change report,
respectively and 256 channel states and running report, respectively, which won’t lose in case of
power loss.
9.2.1.1. Self-check Report
The protective device is always under supervision of self-check function. Once an abnormal
condition is detected, e.g., chip damage or PT circuit failure etc, it will be saved in the self-check
Report as an event record.
9.2.1.2. Input Position Change Report
Once an input signal state has changed, for example, from “0” to “1”, the protective device will
save it as an event record in the input position change Report.
9.2.2. Disturbance Records

It can record the AI values and BI states before/after/during system disturbance, which can help
the user better understand the operation behavior of the primary/secondary device in the power
system. In addition, the user can analyze the disturbance data to obtain more valuable information
and improve the device performance, offering reference to the planning and design of future
projects.
The distance records consist of fault report and fault waveforms. The disturbance records are
started by the start element of the protective device.
267
The disturbance records will be generated in case:
1. The start element acts and the protection element simultaneously acts; or
2. Only the start element acts.
9.2.2.1. Fault Report format
The protective device can save 64 fault report, which will not lose in case of power loss. If the
memory has saved 64 report and when a new Report is generated, the earliest Report will be
automatically overwritten. With consideration to frequent starts, the device will save at least 48
complete trip report, i.e., if 48 trip report have been saved and the newly generated Report only
contains start, it will cyclically overwrite the 16 start report but not the 48 trip report.
Each fault Report is composed of:
1. Fault serial No.
Each Operation Report has a automatically generated serial No., which can be displayed on LCD.
2. Fault date and time
The protective device can reach 1ms resolution via the internal communication clock or GPS
timing. The time mark of the fault Report stands for the operation moment of the protection start
element.
3. Operation time
The operation time refers to the duration from the time fault occurs to the time the protection
element acts, which excludes the inherent operation time of the output relay.
4. Faulty phase
5. Protection operation element
The protection operation element refers to the protection relay element that acts in the fault.
9.2.2.2. Fault Recording Format
The protective device can save 120 fault waveforms, including current and voltage etc in the
format compliant with COMTRADE. If it has saved 120 fault waveforms, the latest waveform will
automatically overwrite the earliest waveform without trip. The sampling rate is 40 points per
cycle.
Each waveform contains the data in the 10 cycles prior to fault and the data in the 25 cycles after
fault. If the protection element does not act, the transient waveform in the previous 35 cycles and
the subsequent amplitude waveform will form the full waveform. If the protection acts, however,
another additional 35 waveforms before/after the fault element acts will be recorded, i.e., the
whole waveform consists of at least 70 cycles of transient values. At the interval of transient
268
waveform, the device will compress the waveform, i.e., only the amplitude at one point is recorded
in a cycle.
9.3. Self-check
Although the protective device is in non-operation state during normal running, it must be in good
condition so that it can make timely response to system fault. The protective device is in
self-check state to make sure the hardware is free from any damage from energization to on of
“Run” LED. The self-check function, both the energization self-check and the continuous
self-check during running, plays a vital role in normal running of the protective device. One of the
virtues of the computer-based protective device lies in its self-check function, which can ensure its
integrity.
If any fault is detected during energization, the protective device will be blocked and all the
protection functions will be disabled from running. The operator must re-energize the protective
device and resume it to normal running.
If serious damage is detected by the self-check program, it will remind the operator via LCD
display, signal LED or alarm contact. The program will record the abnormal conditions for future
interrogation or print.
9.3.1. Alarm Handling

The hardware circuit and software of the protective device are under supervision of self-check
function all the time. Once any abnormal condition occurs, the associated alarm information will
be displayed.
Some abnormal alarm may block some protection functions, and some serious hardware fault and
abnormal alarm may block the protective device where the “Run” LED will go off and the blocking
contact for output signal will be blocked and the protective device must be disabled from running
to be repaired.
WARNING: If the protective device is blocked and alarm information is sent out during
running, the operator must view the self-check Report and identify the fault reason
instead of pressing “Reset” button or restarting the device. If the fault reason cannot be
identified in the site, please inform the manufacturer without delay.

9.3.2.1. Hardware Self-check
The device will automatically perform self-check for the DSP, RAM, FLASH chips in the CPU
module and make sure no damage or abnormal condition occurs. If any component is detected
with fault or in abnormal condition, the protective device will be automatically blocked and send
out alarms of “memory error” and “program error”.
9.3.2.2. Supervision of DC Power Supply
The secondary circuit voltage of the embedded DC/DC converter is also under supervision to
confirm whether the DC voltage is in the given range. If the DC power supply circuit is detected
with fault, the protection device will send out the alarm information of “DC power supply
abnormality”, and be blocked at the same time.
9.3.2.3. Supervision of Binary Output Circuit
The binary output circuit is also under uninterrupted supervision. If any fault is detected in the
circuits, the protective device will send out [Trip/close output abnormal] alarm and block the
protective device simultaneously.
271
9.3.2.4. Setting Verification

setting zone is in active state at one time.
The protection device carries out self-test of the settings of present effective setting zones to
ensure that they are within a reasonable setting scope. In case any invalid setting is discovered,
the device will send out alarm information of “setting check error” and will be blocked at the same
time. Meanwhile, the device carries out sum check on all setting zones, and if any error exists, the
protection device will send out the alarm information of “setting error” and will be blocked at the
same time.
272
