Protection Application Example

380 kV OHL

1345 T5 delay: This setting was already applied in Chapter 10.3 and is shown here
again with all the Zone 5 settings. The setting 0.75 sec is applied.

1346 X(Z5)-, Reactance for reverse direction: For non-directional zones the
following symmetry requirement can be applied if no other conditions are
specified:

0.5 ⋅ X ( Z 5)+ < X ( Z 5)− < 2 ⋅ X ( Z 5) +

In this case the lower limit will apply so that:

X ( Z 5)− = 0.5 ⋅ X ( Z 5) +
X ( Z 5)− = 0.5 ⋅ 17.782
X ( Z 5)− = 8.891Ω(sec)

The applied setting therefore is 8.891 Ohm.

12. Power Swing – Setting Group A

Figure 36: Power Swing settings

2002 Power Swing Operating mode: In the event of a power swing, tripping by the
distance protection due to the measurement of the “swing impedance” must
be prevented. The setting all zones blocked is therefore applied.

2006 Power swing trip: When the power swing is severe, and an out of step
condition is reached, selective power swing tripping should be applied in the
system to obtain stable islanded subsystems. This relay is not positioned on
such an interconnection so out of step tripping is not required, therefore
setting is NO.

2007 Trip delay after Power Swing Blocking: If during a power swing, which is
detected by the relay, an external switching operation takes place, a jump of
the measured “swing impedance” takes place. This jump can reset the power
swing detection. To prevent tripping if this impedance is inside the protected
zones, a delay time of 0.08 sec is set to allow the power swing measurement
to securely pick up again.
