Distance protection is the main protection for feeder and incoming feeder. The device provides
three zones independent distance protections with polygon characteristics.
The device uses the comprehensive harmonic components of the load current as the control
quantity to adaptively adjust the operating boundary of the distance relay. If the operating boundary
of the conventional distance relay is Zset, the operating boundary of the adaptive distance relay is:
1

In where:
The device is equipped with 3 zones of distance protection, which can be enabled/disabled via
corresponding logic setting, and can be set as forward direction, reverse direction and
forward/reverse direction respectively. The second harmonic blocking function is also available,
which is controlled by the logic setting [21Lx.En_Hm2_Blk]. when the second harmonic component
is greater than the setting [21Lx.HMB.K_Hm2], the distance protection will be blocked. When VT
circuit fails, the distance protection will be blocked with no time delay.
Under auto-transformer (AT) feeding mode, the traction catenary voltage is used to calculate the
impedance. If the traction catenary VT circuit fails, the feeder voltage will be automatically switched
to be used for impedance calculation.
Distance protection can be enabled or disabled via the settings or binary input signals, for some
specific applications, distance protection needs to be blocked by the external signal, so the device
provides a function block input signal to be used to block distance protection. The enabling and
blocking logic of distance protection is shown in the figure below:

Phase overcurrent protection can be enabled or disabled via the settings or binary input signals,
3 for some specific applications, overcurrent protection needs to be blocked by the external signal,
so the device provides a function block input signal to be used to block overcurrent protection. The
enabling and blocking logic of phase overcurrent protection is shown in the figure below:

Where:
Ip: If it is under direct feeding mode, it is the traction catenary current; if it is under auto-transformer
feeding mode, it is the vector difference of traction catenary current and feeder current.
When a fault occurs at the remote end of a feeder, the fault current is relatively small, so the voltage
control element can be adopted to increase the sensitivity for this kind of fault. Users can enable
or disable the voltage control element via the setting [50/51Px.En_Volt_Blk] (x=1~3).
For direct feeding mode, if the traction catenary voltage is lower than the low-voltage setting
[50/51P.VCE.Up], the voltage control element will operate to release phase overcurrent protection.
For auto-transformer (AT) feeding mode, if the traction catenary voltage is lower than the low-
voltage setting [50/51P.VCE.Up], the voltage control element will operate to release phase
overcurrent protection. If the traction catenary VT circuit fails, the feeder voltage will be used to
determine the low-voltage condition, when the feeder voltage is lower than the low-voltage setting 3
[50/51P.VCE.Up], the voltage control element will operate to release phase overcurrent protection.

Figure 3.4-3 Logic diagram of the voltage control element of phase overcurrent protection
When transformer and other equipment are energized without any load, the inrush current may be
generated, which may cause the mal-operation of the phase overcurrent protection. According to
the characteristics of high secondary harmonic component in the inrush current and low secondary
harmonic component in common fault current, the secondary harmonic control element is added to
prevent the phase overcurrent protection from mal-operation due to inrush current.
When the fundamental current is greater than the setting [50/51P.HMB.I_Rls], the harmonic
blocking element of the corresponding phase is released.
The following figure shows the logic diagram of the harmonic control element of phase overcurrent
protection.

Where:
Phase overcurrent protection can operate without time delay or operate with a definite-time limit, it
can also operate with an inverse-time limit, the characteristic curve meets the IEC60255-3 and
ANSI C37.112 standards. Phase overcurrent protection can support definite-time limit, IEC & ANSI
standard inverse time limit and user-defined inverse-time limit, users can select the wanted
operating curve by the setting [50/51Px.Opt_Curve] (x=1~3), the relationship between the value of
the setting and the curve is shown in the table below.
Only when the setting [50/51Px.Opt_Curve] is set as “UserDefine”, i.e. the user-defined inverse-
time characteristic is selected, the settings [50/51Px.K], [50/51Px.C] and [50/51Px.Alpha] are useful,
the inverse-time operating curve is determined by the three settings.
Definite-time characteristic
When I > Ip , the protection operates with a time delay of top (i.e. the value of the setting
[50/51Px.t_Op]), and the operation characteristic curve is shown in the following figure:

Inverse-time characteristic
When I > Ip , the inverse-time accumulator begins to accumulate, and the operating time is
affected by the applied current I . The operating time will decrease with the current increasing,
but the operating time shall not less than tmin , i.e. the setting [50/51Px.tmin] (x=1~3). The inverse-
time operation characteristic equation is:

When the applied current is not a fixed value, but changes with time, the operating behaviour of
the protection is shown in the following equation:

Where:
The supported drop-out characteristics of the phase overcurrent protection include instantaneous
drop-out, definite-time drop-out and ANSI inverse-time drop-out.
When the operating curve is selected as definite-time, IEC inverse-time or user-defined inverse-
time characteristic, the drop-out characteristic can only be selected as instantaneous drop-out or
definite-time drop-out, if inverse-time drop-out is selected, the alarm signal "Fail_Settings" will be
issued and the device will be blocked.
When the operating curve is selected as ANSI inverse-time characteristic, the drop-out
characteristic can be selected as instantaneous drop-out, definite-time drop-out and ANSI inverse-
time drop-out.
Instantaneous drop-out
Definite-time drop-out
When I <0.95* Ip , the protection drops out with a time delay of tdr (i.e. the value of the setting

3.4.5 Settings
In order to prevent the distance protection and phase instantaneous overcurrent protection from
refusing to operate in the event of a high-resistance grounding fault happens. The device adopts
DPFC (deviation of power frequency component) overcurrent protection that with higher harmonics
suppression function as the backup protection. When the current higher harmonics ratio is larger
than the setting, the higher harmonics suppression protection will operate. The protection principle
is as follows:
≥ (1 + 𝐾235 ) × ∆𝐼𝑠𝑒𝑡
∆𝐼 ≥ (1 + 𝐾235 ) × ∆𝐼𝑠𝑒𝑡
Where:
𝐼1_𝑏𝑒𝑓𝑜𝑟𝑒 , 𝐼1_𝑎𝑓𝑡𝑒𝑟 is the power frequency component of the current of one cycle before the fault.
Load→Fault: If the fault current is considered to be a pure sine wave, then K235 =0, so the current
operating quantity of the relay is the deviation of power frequency component.
Load→Load: The greater the comprehensive harmonic ratio of the load current, the greater the K
value, the smaller the operating quantity of the relay, the larger the operating boundary of the relay,
and the more difficult it is for the relay to mal-operate.
The second harmonic blocking function is available for DPFC overcurrent protection (which is
controlled by the logic setting [50/51D.En_Hm2_Blk]). When the second harmonic ratio is greater
than the setting [50/51D.HMB.K_Hm2], the DPFC overcurrent protection is blocked.
DPFC overcurrent protection can be enabled or disabled via the settings or binary input signals, for
some specific applications, theprotection needs to be blocked by the external signal, so the device
provides a function block input signal to be used to block DPFC overcurrent protection. The

Taking into account that the role of undervoltage protection is to remove the running device from
the system, but in order to prevent that undervoltage protection is always operating when it is not
charged, the breaker closed position check criterion is added, users can choose to detect the
breaker position, current or no-check as the releasing condition for the protection.
In addition, the undervoltage protection also provides the alarm function, prompting the voltage
drop of the system, it allows users to find the cause timely, and preventing further deterioration of
the fault. Each stage of phase undervoltage protection can be independently set as definite-time
characteristics and supported drop-out characteristics include instantaneous drop-out and definite-
time drop-out.
The breaker closed position check mode is configured via the setting [27P.Opt_LogicMode], it
includes:
[27P.Opt_LogicMode]=None: no-check;
Undervoltage protection can be enabled or disabled via the settings or binary input signals, for
some specific applications, undervoltage protection needs to be blocked by the external signal, so
the device provides a function block input signal to be used to block undervoltage protection. The

According to the tripping information from the device and the auxiliary information (the current and
the position) of target circuit breaker, breaker failure protection constitutes the criterion to
discriminate whether the target circuit fails to open. If the criterion is confirmed, breaker failure
protection will operate to trip the target circuit breaker with the time delay [50BF.t_ReTrp], trip it
again with the time delay [50BF.t1_Op] and trip the adjacent circuit breakers with the time delay
[50BF.t2_Op]. As a special backup protection, breaker failure protection can quickly isolate the fault,
reduce the affected range by the fault, keep system stability and prevent generators, transformers
and other primary equipment from seriously damaged.
3.8.1.1 Re-trip
When breaker failure protection receives initiating signal of tripping and phase overcurrent element
of any phase operates, the device will issue tripping command to re-trip the target circuit breaker
with the time delay [50BF.t_ReTrp].
As similar as re-trip, the device will operate to re-trip the target circuit breaker again with the time
As similar as re-trip, the device will operate to trip the adjacent circuit breakers with the time delay
[50BF.t2_Op] when the relevant operating criterion is satisfied.
For some special faults (for example, mechanical protection or undervoltage protection operating),
maybe faulty current is very small and current criterion of breaker failure protection is not met, in
3 order to make breaker failure protection can also operate under the above situation, an input signal
"50BF.ExTrp_WOI" is equipped to initiate breaker failure protection, once the input signal is
energized, normally closed auxiliary contact of circuit breaker is chosen in addition to breaker failure
current check to trigger breaker failure timer. The device takes current as priority with CB auxiliary
contact "50BF.52b" as an option criterion for breaker failure check.
When the initiating signal of breaker failure protection is energized for longer than 10s, an alarm
signal "50BF.Alm_Init" will be issued, and will drop out with a time delay of 10s.

The SOTF protection must be initiated by auto-reclosing signal or manual closing signal, the
initiating time can be set by the setting [STOF.t_En]. After the acceleration condition is satisfied,
the SOTF protection will operate with a time delay of [50PSOTF.t_Op]/[21SOTF.t_Op].
If the current changes from “no” to “have”, and the breaker position changes from “open” to “closed”,
it will be judged that the acceleration condition for manual closing is satisfied. Then the manual
closing signal will be kept for a certain time which is determined by the setting [SOTF.t_En], and
SOTF protection will be enabled.
The harmonic blocking characteristic of the distance SOTF protection is consistent with that of
distance protection.
In order to improve the reliability, phase overcurrent SOTF protection can select voltage control
element. Users can enable or disable the voltage control element via the logic setting
[50PSOFT.En_Volt_Blk]. The voltage control element of phase overcurrent SOTF protection is

Based on the chosen synchronism check mode for AR, the device judges whether the synchronism
condition is satisfied, and then implement reclosing.
3.10.1.3 AR Ready
AR must be ready to operate before performing reclosing. The output signal [79.Ready] means that
the auto-reclosure can perform at least one time of reclosing function, i.e., breaker open-close-
open.
When the device is energized or after the settings are modified, AR cannot be ready unless the
following conditions are met:
1. AR is enabled.
2. The circuit breaker is ready, such as, normal storage energy and no low pressure signal.
3. The duration of the circuit breaker in closed position pre-fault is greater than the setting
[79.t_CBClsd].
After AR operates, it must reset, i.e. [79.Active]=0, in addition to the above conditions for reclosing
again.
When there is a fault on an overhead line, the concerned circuit breakers will be tripped normally.
After the fault is cleared, the tripping signal will drop out immediately. In case the circuit breaker is
in failure, etc., and the tripping signal of the circuit breaker maintains and in excess of the time
delay [79.t_PersistTrp], AR will be blocked, as shown in following figure
3 The input signal [79.CB_Healthy] must be energized before AR gets ready. Because most circuit
breakers can finish one complete process: open-closed-open, it is necessary that circuit breaker
has enough energy before reclosing. When the time delay of AR is exhausted, AR will be blocked
if the input signal [79.CB_Healthy] is still not energized within time delay [79.t_CBReady]. If this
function is not required, the input signal [79.CB_Healthy] can be not to configure, and its state will
be thought as “1” by default.
In order to block AR reliably even if the signal of manually open circuit breaker not connected to
the input signal of blocking AR, when the circuit breaker is open by manually and there is CB
position input under normal conditions, AR will be blocked with the time delay of 100ms if AR is not
initiated and no any trip signal.
When AR is disabled, AR fails, synchronism check fails or last shot is reached, or when the internal
blocking condition of AR is met. AR will be discharged immediately and next AR will be disabled.
When the input signal [79.LockOut] is energized, AR will be blocked immediately. The blocking flag
of AR will be also controlled by the internal blocking condition of AR. When the blocking flag of AR
is valid, AR will be blocked immediately. The logic of AR ready is shown as below
AR will be blocked immediately once the blocking condition of AR appears, but the blocking
condition of AR will drop out with a time delay [79.t_DDO_Blk] after blocking signal disappears.

When any protection element operates to trip, the device will output a signal [79.Active] until AR

protection element.
3.10.1.4 AR Initiation
AR can be initiated by tripping signal of line protection, and the tripping signal may be from internal
trip signal or external trip signal.
When AR is ready to reclosing (“79.Ready”=1) and the tripping signal is received, this tripping
signal will be kept in the device, and AR will be initiated after the tripping signal drops out. The
tripping signal kept in the device will be cleared after the completion of AR sequence (Reset
Command). Its logic is shown as below.

2. AR initiated by CB state
AR can be initiated by CB state by setting the setting [79.En_CBInit]. Under normal conditions,
when AR is ready to reclose (“79.Ready”=1), AR will be initiated if circuit breaker is open and
corresponding phase current is nil. AR initiated by CB state logic is shown as below. Usually
normally closed contact of circuit breaker is used to reflect CB state.

After the dead time delay of AR expires, if the synchronism check is still unsuccessful within the

and the AR will be blocked.

Reclosing pulse length may be set through the setting [79.t_PW]. For the circuit breaker without
anti-pump interlock, the setting [79.En_CutPulse] is available to control the reclosing pulse. When
this function is enabled, if the device operates to trip during reclosing, the reclosing pulse will drop
out immediately, so as to prevent multi-shot reclosing onto fault. After the reclosing signal is issued,
AR will drop out with time delay [79.t_Reclaim], and can carry out next reclosing.
The reclaim timer is started when the CB closing signal is given. The reclaim timer defines a time
from the issue of the reclosing command, after which the reclosing function resets. Should a new
trip occur during this time, it is treated as a continuation of the first fault.

2. For one-shot AR, if the tripping signal is received again within reclaim time after the reclosing

It means one-shot reclosing. Line protection device will operate to trip when a transient fault occurs
on the line and AR will be initiated. After the dead time delay for AR is expired, the device will send
reclosing pulse, and then AR will drop out after the time delay [79.t_Reclaim] to ready for the next
reclosing. For permanent fault, the device will operate to trip again after the reclosing is performed,
and the device will output the signal of reclosing failure "79.Failed".
[79.Num]>1
It means multi-shot reclosing. For multi-shot reclosing, line protection device will operate to trip
when a transient fault occurs on the line and AR will be initiated. After the dead time delay of the
first reclosing is expired, the device will send reclosing pulse, and then AR will drop out after the
time delay [79.t_Reclaim] to ready for the next reclosing. For permanent fault, the device will
operate to trip again after the reclosing is performed, and then AR is initiated after the tripping
contact drops off. After the time delay for AR is expired, the device will send reclosing pulse. The
sequence is repeated until the reclosing is successful or the maximum permit reclosing number
[79.Num] is reached.

the circuit breaker closing command is issued, if the circuit breaker closed position signal is not
received after the time delay of [ATS.t_Fail], the ATS fails signal [ATS.Failed] will be issued. After
the circuit breaker closing command is issued, if the circuit breaker closed position signal is
received after the time delay of [t_DPU_BI_CB], the ATS success signal [ATS.Succeeded] will be
issued.

In this section, the prefix “x” can be “T” or “F”, “T” corresponds to the traction
catenary VT and “F” corresponds to the feeder VT.
VT circuit failure can be caused by many reasons, such as fuse blown due to short-circuit fault,
poor contact of VT circuit, VT maintenance and so on. The device can detect them and issue an
alarm signal to block relevant protection functions. However, the alarm of VT circuit failure should
not be issued when the following cases happen.
Only current protection functions are enabled and VT is not connected to the device.
3 The specific current protection has picked up before the satisfaction of conditions of VT circuit
failure alarm.
VT (secondary circuit) MCB auxiliary contact can be connected to the binary input circuit of the
device as a binary signal. If the MCB has been opened (i.e. "x.VTS.MCB_VT" is energized), the
device will consider that the VT circuit is in a bad condition and issue an alarm without a time delay.
If the auxiliary contact is not connected to the device, VT circuit supervision will be issued with time
delay as mentioned in previous paragraph.
When VT is not connected into the device, the alarm shall be not issued if the logic setting [En_VT]
is set as "Disabled". However, the alarm is still issued if the binary input "x.VTS.MCB_VT" is
energized, no matter that the logic setting [En_VT] is set as "Disabled" or "Enabled".

Figure 4.1-1 Logic diagram of switchgear closing operation................................................. 4-7
List of Tables
When the device is in the remote-control mode, the control command may be sent via
communication protocol; when it is in the local control mode, the local operation may be performed
on the device LCD or panel handle.
3. If the selection is successful, the protocol module sends an execution command, otherwise it
sends a cancel command;
When the device is in the maintenance status, it can still respond to local control commands.
The switchgear control function can cooperate with functions such as synchronism check and
interlocking criteria calculation to complete the output of the corresponding operation command. It
can realize the normal control output in one bay and the interlocking and programmable logic
configuration between bays.
Module Description
CSWI Control of circuit breaker (CB), disconnector switch (DS) or earthing switch (ES)
RMTLOC Remote or local control mode
XCBR Synthesis of CB position, three-phase or phase separated
XSWI Synthesis of DS/ES position
SXCBR/SCSWI Trip counter of CB/DS/ES
Module Description
RSYN Synchronism check for CB closing
CILO Interlocking logic for CB/DS/ES control
MCSWI Manual control of CB/DS/ES
CHKPOS Position verification for switchgear control
Since the source of a control command may be SAS or NCC, or may be triggered by the device
4 LCD or terminal contact, it is necessary to provide a remote/local control mode switch function.
The remote/local control mode switch function determines whether the device is in the remote or
the local control permission state through the configuration of terminal contact, function key, or
binary signal. Each control object provides a remote/local input, and the control module determines
the current control authority to be remote or local according to the input value. By default, if the
input is not configured, any control operation is blocked.
A double point status (DPS), which usually indicates switchgear status, can be derived from 2
ordinary binary inputs. The signification of a DPS is shown in the following table. For switchgear
status, only the 2 statuses "01" and "10" indicating respectively the positions opening and closing
are valid. The other 2 statuses "00" and "11", i.e. intermediate or bad status, will cause the alarm
"DPS.Alm".
For the convenient use in user-defined logic programming, this functional module derives four
single-bit outputs to indicate each DSP state.
Indication Signal
DPS State
DPS_ON DPS_OFF DPS_INT DPS_BAD
ON 1 0 0 0
OFF 0 1 0 0
INT 0 0 1 0
BAD 0 0 0 1
This unit also supports the DPS synthesis through switchgear opening and closing positions after
jittering processing. The synthetic DPS contains original SOE timestamp. The CB control function
supports phase-segregated position inputs and can synthesize these inputs into general position.
In accordance with the control object, the DPS synthesis function is divided into 2 modules: XCBR
and XSWI. The XCBR is mainly used for CB position synthesis, including phase-segregated
positions, while the XSWI is used DS or ES position synthesis.
4
4.1.2.3 Trip Counter
The trip counter function takes the DPS of switchgear position as input count the trip times. For CB,
this device supports phase-segregated and general trip counter. The trip counter function is
triggered by DPS change. The counting result is stored in non-volatile memory for power-off holding.
Use the clear command from the menu in local LCD or customized binary signal to reset trip counter.
4.1.2.4 Interlocking
The interlocking function will influence the control operation output. When the function is enabled,
the device determines whether the control operation is permitted based on the interlocking logic
result. Each control object is equipped with an independent interlocking logic which supports
unlocking operation through a binary signal.
The interlocking function is very important for the control operation of switchgears. During the
operation of primary equipment, the positions of the relevant equipment must be correct for
operation permission. For remote control, i.e. command from SAS or NCC, this device could detect
the interlocking logic depending on the message within the command; for local control through
device LCD or terminal contact, please use the corresponding logic setting to enable/disable the
interlocking function.
The switchgear control function supports manual control function that can be configured with a
terminal contact or binary signal to trigger the control operation.
The manual control function supports the control input configuration of selection and open/close.
When the control object selection input is configured, the signal "1" indicates that the current control
object has to be selected before a control operation; if the control object selection input is not
configured, the control command can be directly issued without judgment of selection.
The position verification function is provided during switchgear control process. In a control function
block of circuit breaker, disconnector or earthing switch, if the input “in_CheckPos_En” is set as 1,
the CB/DS/ES position shall be verified when receiving a remote or local control command.
The device shall respond control command failed with the cause of failure when its DPS is INT,
BAD or opposite (i.e. OPEN while opening or CLOSE while closing).
For applications such as signal reset and function enable/disable, the control mode is generally
4 direct control, i.e. execution without selection before, direct control with normal security in IEC
61850.
The direct control function provides remote/local switch and interlocking configurations. The control
command is usually issued directly by the SAS. It also supports the command triggered by binary
signal.
In above figure, the signals related to three-phase (phase-A, phase-B, and phase-C) and the
synchronization are used by the conventional three-phase power system, and do not need to be
configured in the traction power supply system of electrified railway.

6.1 Overview
Protection system is in quiescent state under normal conditions, and it is required to respond
promptly for faults occurred on power system. When the device is in energizing process before the
LED “HEALTHY” is on, the device needs to be checked to ensure no abnormality. Therefore, the
automatic supervision function, which checks the health of the protection system when startup and
during normal operation, plays an important role.
The numerical relay based on the microprocessor operations is suitable for implementing this
automatic supervision function of the protection system.
In case a defect is detected during initialization when DC power supply is provided to the device,
the device will be blocked with indication and alarm of relay out of service. It is suggested a trial
recovery of the device by re-energization. Please contact supplier if the device is still failure.
When a failure is detected by the automatic supervision, it is followed by a LCD message, LED
indication and alarm contact outputs. The failure alarm is also recorded in event recording report
and can be printed if required.
All hardware has real-time monitoring functions, such as CPU module monitoring, communication
interface status monitoring, power supply status monitoring. 6
The monitoring function of CPU module also includes processor self-check, memory self-check
and so on. The processor self-check is checked by designing execution instructions and data
operations. Check whether the processor can execute all instructions correctly, and whether it can
correctly calculate complex data operations to determine whether it works normally. For peripherals,
it can monitor the status of the interface module, check the input and output data, send the
communication interface and receive self-loop detection. Memory self-check is used to detect
unexpected memory errors in the running process. It can effectively prevent program logic
abnormality caused by memory errors.
The status monitoring of communication interface also includes Ethernet communication interface
monitoring and differential channel communication interface monitoring. By accessing the status
register of the communication interface, the state of the corresponding interface is obtained, such
as the state of connection, the number of sending frames, the number of frames received, and the
number of wrong frames. According to the statistics of the acquired interface state, it is detected
whether the interface work is abnormal.
The hardware supervision also includes the power supply status monitoring. The voltage monitoring
chip is used by all the power supplies. The reset voltage threshold is pre-set to the reset monitoring
circuit. When the power supply is abnormal, the voltage monitoring chip will output the reset signal
to control CPU to be in the reset state and avoid the wrong operation.
In the process of operation, the safety allowance should always be kept and no overload
phenomenon is allowed. When the user configures logic components with PCS-Studio, the PCS-
Studio automatically calculates the time required for the theoretical execution of the configured
components. When the security limit is exceeded, the PCS-Studio will indicate that the
configuration error is not allowed to download the current configuration to the device.
During the operation of the device, there is a lot of data exchange between modules. The number
of data exchanges is related to the number of logical components configured by the user. When
the configuration is too large to cause the number of data exchange to exceed the upper limit
supported by the device, the PCS-Studio prompts the configuration error.
The initialization of the device depends on the configuration files of each module. The user
configured logical components will eventually be embodied in the configuration file, limited to the
hardware memory space. When the configuration file size is more than the upper limit, the PCS-
Studio prompts the configuration error.
The DDR3 memory chip has the function of ECC (Error Checking and Correcting) to eliminate
unexpected changes in memory caused by electromagnetic interference. The chip memory has
parity function. When an error occurs, the system can detect anomalies immediately, and eliminate
the logic abnormity caused by memory errors.
In addition to the above hardware memory reliability measures, the device software is also
constantly checking the memory during operation, including code, constant data, and so on. Once
the error detection, the system will automatically restart the restore operation. If they detect the
error immediately after the restart, it may be the result of a permanent fault locking device hardware,
only at the moment and not restart.
The reliability of the device is largely determined by the reliability of the export drive. By reading
the driving state of the binary output relay, the alarm signal will be generated and the device is
immediately blocked to prevent the relay from mal-operation when the device is not given a tripping
order and the binary output relay driver is detected in the effective state.
The CPU chip needs to be able to ensure long-term stability under the permissible working
temperature of the specification. Therefore, it is necessary to monitor the working temperature
monitored by CPU.
The device CPU module stores the configuration check codes of other modules. In initialization
procedure, it checks whether the configuration check code of each module is consistent with the
stored code in CPU module, and if it is not consistent, this device is blocked.
2. The hardware modules and process interface versions need to be consistent with the CPU
module.
If the system is incompatible with the upgrade, it will upgrade the internal interface version. At this
moment, each hardware module and process will be upgraded synchronously, otherwise the
version of the interface will be inconsistent.
The configuration text formed by the device calibration visualization project includes checking
whether the check code is wrong or not. 6
4. Whether any setting is over the range, whether it needs to confirm the settings.
If the setting exceeds the configuration range, the device is blocked; if some settings are added, it
is necessary to confirm the new values through the LCD.
In the operation procedure, the CPU module sends a time synchronization command to other
module, each module repeats heartbeat message to the CPU module, if it does not respond or the
heartbeat is abnormal, then this device is blocked.
2. Check whether the settings of other modules are consistent with the CPU module.
The actual values of all the settings in the CPU module are initialized to send to the corresponding
slave modules. In the process of operation, the setting values stored in the CPU module and the
setting values of other modules will be checked one by one. If they are not consistent, this device
will issue the alarm signal "Fail_Settings".
The sampling circuit of this device is designed as dual-design scheme. Each analog sampling
channel is sampled by two groups of ADC. The sampling data is self checking and inter checking
in real time. If any sampling circuit is abnormal, the device reports the alarm signal “Alm_Sample”,
and the protection function related to the sampling channel is disabled at the same time. When the
sampling circuit returns to normal state, the related protection is not blocked after 10s.
The secondary circuit supervision function includes voltage transformer supervision (VTS) and
tripping/closing circuit supervision.
VTS function
The purpose of the VTS function is to detect whether the VT analog input is normal. Because some
function, such as distance protection, will be influenced by a voltage input failure.
The VT circuit failure can be caused by many reasons, such as fuse blown due to short-circuit fault,
poor contact of VT circuit, VT maintenance and so on. The device can detect the failure, and then
issue an alarm signal and block relevant function.
See further details about the VTS function, please refer to Chapter 3.
The tripping circuit supervision function can be realized by program the logic function of this device
6 through the PCS-Studio according to the practical application experience of the user. In this manual,
a scheme which uses two independent binary inputs to supervise the tripping circuit is
recommended.
The following figure show the recommended scheme for tripping circuit supervision and the logic
diagram of the TCS function.

Where:
[BI_02] is the binary input which is serial connected with the “52b” contact.
Binary input
state
All binary inputs should setup necessary debounce time to prevent the device from undesired
operation due to transient interference or mixed connection of AC system and DC system. When 6
the duration of binary input is less than the debounce time, the state of the binary input will be
ignored. When the duration of binary input is greater than the debounce time, the state of the binary
input will be validated and wrote into SOE.
In order to meet flexible configurable requirement for different project field, all binary inputs provided
by the device are configurable. Through the configuration tool, this device provides two parameters
to setup debounce time of delayed pickup and drop-out based on specific binary signal.
1. Type 1
This type of binary inputs includes enable/disable of protection functions, AR mode selection,
“BI_RstTarg”, “BI_Maintenance”, disconnector position, settings group switch, open and
close command of circuit breaker and disconnector, enable/disable of auxiliary functions (for
example, manually trigger recording). They are on the premise of reliability, and the debounce
time of delayed pickup and delayed drop-out is recommended to set as 100ms at least.
2. Type 2
This type of binary inputs include breaker failure initiating binary inputs,
“CSWIxx.Cmd_LocCtrl”, “CSWIxx.Cmd_RmtCtrl” and so on.
Debounce time
The debounce time of delayed pickup and delayed drop-out is recommended to set as
15ms, in order to prevent binary signals from mal-operation due to mixed connection of
AC system and DC system.
3. Type 3
This type of binary inputs is usually used as auxiliary input condition, and the debounce time
of delayed pickup and delayed drop-out is recommended to set as 5ms.
When users have their own reasonable setting principles, they can set the
debounce time related settings according to their own setting principles.
[Num_Blk_Jitter] N, times threshold to block binary input status change due to jitter
[Blk_Window_Jitter] T', blocking window of binary input status change due to jitter
For a binary input voltage variation, if the jitter processing function is enabled, its handling principle
is:
1. During the T,
If the actual jitter times < N, the block will not be initiated and the status change of this
binary input will be considered.
If the actual jitter times ≥ N, the T' is initiated, and the status change of binary input will be
ignored during the T'.
If the actual jitter times < N', the block window will expire. The final status of this binary
input will be compared to the original one before T', so as to determine whether there is a
change or not.
If the actual jitter times ≥ N', the T' will be initiated again immediately (i.e. restart the timer),
and the status change of binary input will be ignored during the next T'.

At t10, jitter unblocking, ② changes its status to 0, the blocking window expires and ③
restart to trace the voltage varation immediately. At this point, no debounce time takes
effect and SOE can be created since then.
The tripping counter statistics function supports statistics of the tripping operation, such as circuit
breakers, disconnectors and so on. For the circuit breaker, when the position is detected from close
state to open state, the total position tripping counter is added, and the tripping counter is added
once when the position of the disconnector is detected from close state to open state.
In addition, the statistics of the number of state change of circuit breakers and disconnectors are
also provided. The state change counter will add one when the position is detected from close state
to open state or from open state to close state.
Hardware circuit and operation status of this device are self-supervised continuously. If any
abnormal condition is detected, information or report will be displayed and a corresponding alarm
will be issued.
A minor abnormality may block a certain number of protections functions while the other functions
can still work. However, if severe hardware failure or abnormality, such as PWR module failure, DC
converter failure and so on, are detected, all protection functions will be blocked and the LED
“HEALTHY” will be extinguished and blocking output contacts “BO_Fail” will be given. The
protective device then cannot work normally and maintenance is required to eliminate the failure.
All the alarm signals and the corresponding handling suggestions are listed below.
If the device is blocked or alarm signal is sent during operation, please do find out its reason with
the help of self-diagnostic record. If the reason cannot be found at site, please notify the factory

7.4.1 Overview
Fault recorder can be used to have a better understanding of the behaviour of the power network
and related primary and secondary equipment during and after a disturbance. Analysis of the
recorded data provides valuable information that can be used to improve existing equipment. This 7
information can also be used when planning for and designing new installations.
The fault recorder is comprised of the report and the waveform, which can be triggered by pickup
signals, trip signals and configurable binary signal “BI_TrigDFR”.
The fault memory of the device is automatically updated with every recording. When the fault
memory is filled completely, the oldest records are overwritten automatically. Thus, the most recent
recordings are always stored safely. The maximum number of recordings is 64.
1. Sequence number
Each operation will be recorded with a sequence number in the record and displayed on LCD
screen.
The date and time are recorded when a system fault is detected. The time resolution is 1ms.
An operating time (not including the operating time of output relays) is recorded in the record. The
time resolution is 1ms.
4. Fault information
The overall duration of a single fault recording comprises the total duration of the configurable
recording criterion, the pre-trigger time and the post-trigger time. With the fault recording parameter,
these components can be individually set. The pre-trigger waveform recorded duration is
configured via the setting [RecDur_PreTrigDFR]. The waveform recorded duration after the fault
disappears is configured via the setting [RecDur_PostFault]. The maximum post-trigger waveform
recorded duration is configured via the setting [MaxRecDur_PostTrigDFR].
4. [MaxRecDur_PostTrigDFR]
Trigger point
The pickup recording time cannot be set. It continues as long as any valid trigger condition, binary
or analog, persists (unless limited by the limit time, which is determined by the setting
[MaxRecDur_PostTrigDFR]).
The recording time begins after all activated triggers are reset. Use the setting [RecDur_PostFault]
to set this time.
Use the setting [MaxRecDur_PostTrigDFR] to set this time. If the summation of pickup recording
time and post-fault recording time is larger than maximal post-trigger recording time, the post-
trigger recording time shall be equal to the setting [MaxRecDur_PostTrigDFR].
The device provides corresponding menus to check fault recording. The menu path is:
Using the virtual LCD tool, the corresponding content can be viewed through the same menu path
as local LCD.
Fault recording can be uploaded into clients through corresponding communication service of the
protocol (including IEC60870-5-103, IEC61850, DNP3).
The device can print fault recording, so that the operator can observe and save the current
operation condition. The access path is:
The device provides maintenance state, i.e., the binary input [BI_Maintenance] is energized, which
is convenient for maintenance work. For adopting conventional CT/VT, binary inputs and binary
outputs, maintenance state has no influence on protection logics. For binary inputs and binary
outputs by GOOSE connections. During device maintenance, the object will send GOOSE
message with Test quality attribute. The Test quality attribute indicates to the receiver device that
7
the object received via a GOOSE message was created under test conditions and not operating
conditions. If the Test quality attribute received is different with the object's Test quality attribute,
binary inputs and binary outputs by GOOSE connections will be affected based on different types
of binary inputs and binary outputs. For SV (Sampling Value) message, if the Test quality attribute
received is different with the object's Test quality attribute, the relevant protection functions will be
blocked.
For IEC60870-5-103 protocol, only the messages in link layer maintained, service messages in the
application layer which is uploaded automatically are blocked, and service messages in the
application layer which is issued by the client are rejected. For IEC61850 protocol, all Test quality
attribute set as "1". For DNP3 and ModBus protocol, they are not affected.
The device provides Test Mode to allow all protection elements, supervision events and binary
events to fulfill communication test, but to avoid the output contacts to close. During communication
test, protection functions are not affected, the signals generated by communication test are
recorded in relevant reports, and event recording and fault recording will not stop recording
disturbance information. The alarm signal "Alm_CommTest" will be issued to indicate the operator
when activating Test Mode and exiting Test Mode.
Communication test can be gained via local HMI and the virtual HMI, the corresponding content
can be viewed through the following menu paths:
Events Simulation
Forced Measurements
If no input operation is carried out within 60s, this test will exit and return to
the previous menu automatically.
Output test can be gained via the local LCD or virtual HMI of a debugging PC, the corresponding
content can be viewed through the following menu paths:
Contacts Outputs
GOOSE Outputs
The device provides target reset which can be used to reset local signals (including magnetic
latching output relays), latched LEDs, and confirm pop-up windows of reports. The function does
not affect the protection logic and communication function. There are several ways to reset.
Press the command pushbutton “ESC”+“ENT” on operation panel of the device under
main interface
Press the command pushbutton " TARGET RESET" on operation panel of the device
For different applications users can save the respective function settings in so-called settings
groups, and if necessary enable them quickly. Up to 20 different settings groups can be saved in
the device. In the process, only one settings group is active at any given time. During operation,
the operator can switch between setting groups.
The device will be temporarily blocked during switching setting groups. During temporary device
blocking, the device will loss protection functions and communication functions. Alarm signals
"Fail_Device" and "Alm_Device" will be issued. There are several ways to switch setting groups.
Press the command pushbutton “MENU” under main interface (password is required)
Access menu path: MainMenu "Setting" "Global Settings" "System Settings", modify
the setting [Active_Grp]
The communication protocols IEC 60870-5-103 or IEC 61850 can be used for switching the
setting groups via a communication connection.
The device also provides an available function by configuring associated binary signals via
PCS-Studio to switch setting group, which can be external binary inputs or internal logic signals.
By default, no binary signals are configured, so the function is invalid. (The specificed
confiuration method can refer to the application manual).
Each input signal is coded with a sequence number that corresponds to a setting group. When
the associated input signal changes, the device scans all input signals and selects the input
with the smallest sequence number as the valid input. The device switches to the setting range
corresponding to the input signal. The device can switch up to 20 setting groups.

8.3 CT Requirement
CT Requirement
Generally, CT saturation will cause a certain time delay to the operation of a protection, which is
obvious for inverse-time overcurrent protection. When the maximum fault current is far greater than
the current seting, the operating time delay generated at this time can be ignored. If the maximum
fault current is slightly greater than the current setting, the operating time delay generated at this
time is equivalent to the primary time constant of the system. When there is an upper-lower
coordination relationship, the effect of this time delay needs to be considered. Generally, the
′
𝐸𝑠𝑙 < 𝐸𝐴𝐿𝐹
In where:
′
𝐸𝑠𝑙 is the secondary electromotive force required for the maximum prospective fault current
According to the operating characteristics, the phase overcurrent protection and earth fault
overcurrent protection are divided into the following two situations:
For instantaneous overcurrent protection, definite-time overcurrent protection and earth fault
overcurrent protection:
′
𝐸𝑠𝑙 = 𝐼𝑝𝑐𝑓 × 𝐼𝑠𝑟 × (𝑅𝑐𝑡 + 𝑅𝑏′ )/𝐼𝑝𝑟
𝐼𝑠𝑒𝑡 is the the inverse-time reference current setting or 1.1 times of the maximum load current.
For the directional overcurrent protection and earth fault overcurrent protection, try to choose the
low remanence or no remanence CT.
𝑅𝑏′ = 𝑅𝑟 + 2 × 𝑅𝐿
𝑅𝑏′
𝑅𝑟 : Protection device phase current input impedance, it takes 0.01ohm

the primary time constant of the system is 80ms, calculate that whether the CT can meet the
requirements of definite-time overcurrent protection.

interface module. If an event occurs (such as SOE, protective tripping event etc.), this module
will send out the relevant event information through these interfaces, and make it be easily
observed by the user.
Support of protocols
Auxiliary calculation
Based on the voltage and current inputs, the CPU module also can calculate out the metering
values, such as active power, reactive power and power factor etc. All these values can be
sent to a SAS or a RTU through the communication interfaces.
This module can respond the commands from the keypad of this device and show the results
on the LCD and LED indicators of this device. It also can show the operation situation and
event information for the users through the LCD and LED indicators.
Time synchronization
This module has a local clock chip and an interface to receive time synchronized signals from
external clock source. These signals include PPS (pulse per second) signal and IRIG-B signal.

1. [Cfg_NetPorts_Bond]
The setting is used to configure dual-networks switching, and it means that no dual-networks
switching is created when the setting is set as “0”. The device supports a bond between any two
Ethernet ports, and the bond among three or above Ethernet ports is impermissible.
The devices communicate with SAS by station level network. In order to ensure reliable
communication, dual networks (i.e., network 1 and network 2) are adopted. Another special
communication mode based on dual networks is that Ethernet port 1 and Ethernet port 2 of the
device own the same IP address and MAC address, and network 1 and network 2 are used as hot
standby each other. When both network 1 and network 2 are normal, any of them is used to
communicate between the device and SAS. The device will automatically switch to the other
healthy network when one network is abnormal, which will not affect normal communication.
Taking a CPU module with four Ethernet ports as an example, each bit is corresponding with an
Ethernet port, i.e., Bit0, Bit1, Bit2 and Bit3 are corresponding with Ethernet port 1, Ethernet port 2,
Ethernet port 3 and Ethernet port 4 respectively. If a bond between Ethernet port 1 and Ethernet 2
is created, the setting [Cfg_NetPorts_Bond] is set as “3”. The specific setting is as below.

After the device is powered on, network 1 is selected when the link status of both network 1
and network 2 are normal.
When the link status of network 1 is abnormal, network 2 is selected if network 2 is normal.
When the link status of network 1 is abnormal, network 1 is kept to work if network 2 is also
abnormal.
When network 2 is working, network 2 is kept to work even if network 1 has been restored to
normal. The device will be switched to network 1 only if network 2 is abnormal. 9

1. [Opt_TimeSyn]
There are three selections for clock synchronization of the device, each selection includes different
time clock synchronization signals shown in following table.
Item Description
IRIG-B (RS-485): IRIG-B via RS-485 differential level.
PPS (RS-485): Pulse per second (PPS) via RS-485 differential level.
IRIG-B (Fiber): IRIG-B via optical-fibre interface.
Conventional
PPS (Fiber): Pulse per second (PPS) via optical-fibre interface.
9 IEEE1588 (Fiber): Clock message via IEEE1588.
PPS (DIN): Pulse per second (PPS) via the binary input [BI_TimeSyn].
SNTP(PTP): Unicast (point to point) SNTP mode via Ethernet network.
SNTP(BC): Broadcast SNTP mode via Ethernet network.
SAS
IEC103: Clock messages through IEC103 protocol.
MODBUS: Clock messages through MODBUS protocol.
If time synchronization function is not needed for the device, this option can be
NoTimeSyn
selected.
1) When “SAS” is selected, if there is no conventional clock synchronization signal, the device
will not send the alarm signal [Alm_TimeSyn]. When “Conventional” mode is selected, if there
is no conventional clock synchronization signal, “SAS” mode will be enabled automatically with
the alarm signal [Alm_TimeSyn] being issued simultaneously.
2) When “NoTimeSyn” mode is selected, the device will not send time synchronization alarm
signal.
The clock message via IEC103 protocol is INVALID when the device
receives the IRIG-B signal through RC-485 port.
