2. Introduction
2.1. General
The protection relay REX 521 is designed for protection, control, measuring, and
supervision in medium voltage networks. Typical applications include incoming and
outgoing feeders as well as substation protection. The protection relay is provided
with energizing inputs for conventional current and voltage transformers. Also a
hardware version with inputs for current and voltage sensors is available.
The protection relay is based on a multiprocessor environment. The HMI1 (Human-
Machine Interface) including an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) with different views
makes the local use easy and informs the user via indication messages. Modern
technology is applied both in hardware and software solutions.
The REX 521 is part of the substation automation concept for Distribution
Automation and extends the functionality and flexibility of the concept further.
1. HMI is referred to as MMI (man-machine interface) in the relay and in the Relay
Setting Tool.

2.2. Application
The REX 521 is designed for protection of incoming and outgoing feeders in
medium voltage distribution substations. Further, the relay can, for example, be
applied to back-up protection of power transformers and back-up for high voltage
line protection relays.

3. Requirements
If the environmental conditions differ from those specified in section “Technical
data” on page 44, as to temperature and humidity, or if the environmental conditions
around the protection relay contain chemically active gases or dust, the relay should
be visually inspected in association with the secondary testing. The visual inspection
should focus on:
• Signs of mechanical damage to the relay case and terminals.
• Signs of corrosion on terminals or on the case.
• For information about the maintenance of relays, refer to section “Service” on
page 56.

4. Technical description
4.1.1. Parametrization
To ensure that a protection function block protects the feeder in the desired manner,
the default values of parameters must be checked and set before taking the function
block into use.
The parameters can be set either locally over the HMI or externally via the serial
communication using Relay Setting Tool. See “Serial communication” on page 31.
1. A few parameters are visible only in the relay, see the list on page 71.

parameters. In that case the disturbance recorder DREC will be cleared. Measured
values and registered data, for example current, digital input states, can be uploaded
by means of the Measurements & Registered Data view.
When uploading or downloading parameters with Relay Setting Tool by
! using the option All, it covers only the parameters of the selected view
(that is, Settings, Configuration, or Measurements & Registered
Data).

on the display. This means that the calibration parameters have been read from the
MIM card and copied to the non-volatile memory of the CPU card. After ten
seconds, the relay will reset itself again, and takes the correct calibration parameters
into use.
1. Because the storing of the recorded values is a background task, it might be affected
by a sudden auxiliary power failure.
2. Capacitor ageing may decrease the back-up time.
17
REX 521 Protection Relay 1MRS 751108-MUM
For further technical data of the power supply, see Table 4.2.1-2 on page 44.
The indication of a low auxiliary voltage (ACFail) can be seen as an event via serial
communication.
18
1MRS 751108-MUM Protection Relay REX 521
A letter in the order number specifies whether the protection relay is equipped with
basic, medium, high or sensor measuring input modules. (Refer to section “Ordering
information” on page 57).
4.1.6.1. Scaling the rated values of the protected unit for analog
channels
A separate scaling factor can be set for each analog channel. The factors enable
differences between the ratings of the protected unit and those of the measuring
device (CTs, VTs etc.) The setting value 1.00 means that the rated value of the
protected unit is exactly the same as that of the measuring device.
When scaling factors are used, it should be noted that they affect the
! operation accuracy of the relay. The accuracies stated in the description of
each function block (in the CD-ROM Technical Descriptions of Functions)
only apply with the default values of the scaling factors. For example, a high
factor affects the operation of sensitive protection functions such as the
directional earth fault protection. To ensure the proper operation of the
function blocks, it must be checked that the analog scales (pu scales) of the
phase currents IL1, IL2, and IL3, and correspondingly, the analog scales of the
phase-to-phase voltages U12, U23, and U31 or phase-to-earth voltages U1,
U2, and U3 are identical.

4.1.8. Outputs
The outputs are categorized as follows:
• HSPO: High speed power output, single or double pole contact, for example for
tripping purposes
• PO: Power output, single pole contact
• SO: Signal output, NO/NC (Normally open/Normally closed) contact
For detailed information about terminal connections, refer to the terminal diagrams.

When testing the general output relays, the user should notice, that normal operation
of the relay cannot be disconnected. If an output relay is permanently activated by
the configuration, it cannot be deactivated for testing.
For further information, see Operator’s manual (see “Related documents” on
page 7).
where:
• Uc = operating voltage over the supervised trip circuit
• Ic = measuring current through the trip circuit, appr. 1.5 mA (0.99...1.72 mA)
• Rext = external shunt resistance
• Rint = internal shunt resistance, 1kΩ
• Rs = trip coil resistance
The external shunt resistance is used if the trip-circuit supervision, independent of
the circuit-breaker position, is desired. If the trip-circuit supervision is required only
in closed position, the external shunt resistance may be omitted.
26
1MRS 751108-MUM Protection Relay REX 521
Should the external shunt resistance be used, it has to be calculated not to interfere
with the functionality of the supervision or the trip coil. Too high a resistance will
cause too high a voltage drop, jeopardizing the requirement of at least 20 V over the
internal circuit, while a resistance too low may enable false operations of the trip
coil.

4.1.11. Self-supervision
In order to avoid false operations due to relay faults and to maximize the overall
availability of the protection, a set of autodiagnostic circuit arrangements have been
implemented in the relay modules.
The different memory circuits, that is, the RAM and the non-volatile memories, are
continuously tested with different methods.
The microcontroller and the program execution are supervised by a watchdog once
every 100 ms.
The selector, the A/D converter and other measuring input electronics are tested by
checking a very accurate reference voltage once a minute. This is to ensure that a
measured signal is real and not caused by a fault or disturbance in some input circuit,
all to avoid false output signals.
Setting values are tested with the help of a checksum.
Furthermore, critical setting values are always checked to ensure that the values used
are within the maximum and minimum limits.
The internal supply voltages from the power supply module are tested once a minute
by measuring the voltages, +24 V, +15 V and -15 V.
The trip output paths, the output amplifiers and the output relay coils are checked
once a minute by injecting a 50 µs voltage pulse into the circuit and checking that
current flows through the output relay coils. Both short-circuits and open coils are
detected, since the rise time of the voltage pulse is measured.
28
1MRS 751108-MUM Protection Relay REX 521
When the self-supervision detects a fault, different measures are taken depending on
the severity of the fault. If the fault is fatal, the microcontroller tries to get the system
to work by restarting ten times. If this attempt is not successful, a signal about the
internal relay fault (IRF) is linked to the output relay. Provided that the unit is
operating normally, the information about the fault is sent as an event
“IRF activated” (E31) over the serial communication and the green READY LED
on the front panel starts blinking. An indication about the character of the fault is
also shown as a textual message on the display.
If the fault is considered too dangerous to maintain normal protection, an inoperative
IRF state is entered and no output relay operations are allowed. On the other hand
if, for example, one output relay is found faulty and the others healthy, normal
operations targeted to a healthy relay are allowed.
Even a total breakdown of the relay, for example, on loss of power supply, will be
detected as the IRF relay operates in a fail-safe mode, causing a signal when the
relay drops off. The serial communication will also indicate loss of contact to the
module. When the relay is in the IRF state, it tries to recover by restarting every five
minutes.
As long as the fault remains, the relay continues to perform internal tests. Should the
fault prove to be of temporary nature, normal operation is recovered after restart and
an event “IRF reset” (E30) is sent over the serial communication.

In HMI, the state of the alarm LEDs is shown bit-wise starting from the right with
LED1. The LEDs that were activated by writing to parameter Alarm LED
states can be acknowledged by pressing the [C] button for 2 s in the main view.
Clearing a certain LED without affecting the other LEDs can be done by setting the
corresponding bit to 0 in parameter Alarm LED states. Writing to parameter
Alarm LED states from HMI is useful when testing if a certain LED lights up.

2. Depending on printer, the print size may vary: test print the label on paper
before printing it on transparency. To adjust the print height to the maximum
height of the label (106 mm), use the zoom option of the printer settings.
3. Print the label on the blank transparency. It is recommended to write and print
two labels at the same time since the templates contain two labels to fill the
signal names in.
Use only laser printers for printing. Ink jet printers are not suitable for
! printing on label transparencies.
4. Put the label in the pocket on the front panel of REX 521.

5. Service
When the protection relay is used under the conditions specified in section 4.2.1.
Technical data, it is practically maintenance-free. The relay electronics include no
parts or components subject to abnormal physical or electrical wear under normal
operating conditions.
If the relay fails in operation or if the operating values considerably differ from those
mentioned in the relay specifications, the relay should be overhauled. Contact the
manufacturer or nearest representative of the manufacturer for further information
about checking, overhaul, and recalibration of the relay.
To achieve the best possible operation accuracy, all parts of a REX 521 product have
been calibrated together. Thus, each product forms a whole for which no separate
spare parts can be supplied. In case of malfunction, consult your relay supplier.
