Application

The over and undervoltage relay REU 523 is a secondary relay which is connected to the voltage transformers of the object to be protected. The over and the undervoltage unit continuously measure the fundamental wave of the phase-to-phase voltages of the object. On detection of a fault, the relay will start, trip the circuit breaker, provide alarms, record fault data, etc., in accordance with the application and the configured relay functions. The overvoltage unit includes low-set stage U> and high-set stage U>> and the undervoltage unit low-set stage U< and high-set stage U<<. The high-set undervoltage stage can

alternatively be set to evaluate the positivephase-sequence voltage. In addition, the highset undervoltage stage can be configured to evaluate only one instead of three phase-tophase voltages. The protection functions are independent of each other and have their own setting groups and data recordings. The over and undervoltage functions use conventional voltage transformer measurement. An output contact matrix allows start or trip signals from the protection stages to be routed to the desired output contact.

Design

The relay includes a high-set and low-set overvoltage unit, a high-set and low-set undervoltage unit and a circuit-breaker failure protection unit. Further, the relay includes an HMI module, a self-supervision system and a disturbance recorder.

Undervoltage unit
When the voltage values fall below the set start value of low-set stage U<, the undervoltage unit will start to deliver a start signal after a ~ 80 ms start time. When the set operate time at definite-time characteristic or the calculated operate time at IDMT characteristic elapses, the undervoltage unit will deliver a trip signal. The high-set undervoltage stage, U<<, can be set to start and trip either based on conventional undervoltage measurement or on the calculated positive-phase-sequence voltage, U1s. Selecting either of these two will automatically deseclect the other. When the conventional protection mode has been selected and the voltage values fall below the set start value of the high-set stage, the undervoltage unit will start to deliver a start signal after a ~50 ms start time. When the positive-phase-sequence protection mode has been selected and the calculated positive-phase-sequence voltage value, U1s, falls below the set start value of the highset stage, the undervoltage unit will start to deliver a start signal after a ~50 ms start time. When the set operate time at definitetime characteristic or the calculated operate time at IDMT characteristic elapses, the undervoltage unit will deliver a trip signal. The low-set and the high-set stage of the undervoltage unit can be given either a definitetime or an IDMT characteristic. At IDMT characteristic, one time/voltage curve group, C, is available. The start and the tripping of an undervoltage stage can be set to be internally blocked when the measured value falls below 0.2 x Un. In

Overvoltage unit
When the voltage values exceed the set start value of low-set stage U>, the overvoltage unit will start to deliver a start signal after a ~60 ms start time. When the set operate time at definite-time characteristic or the calculated operate time at inverse definite minimum time (IDMT) characteristic elapses, the overvoltage unit will deliver a trip signal. When the voltage values exceed the set start value of high-set stage U>>, the overvoltage unit will start to deliver a start signal after a ~50 ms start time. When the set operate time at definite-time characteristic or the calculated operate time at IDMT characteristic elapses, the overvoltage unit will deliver a trip signal. The low-set and the high-set stage of the overvoltage unit can be given either a definite-time or an IDMT characteristic. At IDMT characteristic, two time/voltage curve groups, A and B, are available. It is possible to block the tripping of an overvoltage stage by applying an external binary input signal to the relay. The high-set stage can be set out of operation. This state will be indicated by dashes on the LCD and by 999 when the set start value is read via serial communication.

addition, the tripping of stage U< can be set to be blocked by the start of stage U<<. The tripping of an undervoltage stage can also be blocked by applying an external binary input signal to the relay. The high-set stage can be set out of operation. This state will be indicated by dashes on the LCD and by 999 when the set start value is read via serial communication.

HMI module
The HMI of the REU 523 is equipped with six push-buttons and an alphanumeric 2 x 16 characters LCD. The push-buttons are used for navigating in the menu structure and for adjusting set values. An HMI password can be set to protect all user-changeable values from being changed by an unauthorised person. The REU 523 offers you multi-language support. The following languages are available for the HMI menu: English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Swedish and Finnish.

Circuit breaker failure protection (CBFP) unit

The CBFP unit will generate a trip signal via power output 2 (PO2) if the fault has not been cleared on expiration of the set operate time 0.10 s...1.00 s. Normally, the CBFP unit controls the upstream circuit breaker. It can also be used for tripping via redundant trip circuits of the same circuit breaker. The CBFP unit is activated with a soft-ware switch.

Self-supervision (IRF)
The REU 523 is provided with an extensive self-supervision system which continuously supervises the software and the electronics of the relay. It manages run-time fault situations and informs the user about an existing fault via a LED on the HMI and a text message on the LCD.

Disturbance recorder

The REU 523 includes an internal distur-

Communication capabilities
The REU 523 can be connected to a substation automation or monitoring system using either the SPA bus communication protocol or the IEC 60870-5-103 remote communication protocol. Both protocols are supported in the same device. The SPA bus communication protocol is an asynchronous serial communication protocol (1 start bit, 7 data bits + even parity, and 1 stop bit) with a selectable data transfer rate (default 9.6 kbps). It is a master/slave protocol supporting one master device and several slave devices. The SPA bus protocol can be used to transfer data, e.g. measured currents, registered values, events, and relay settings, between the master and the slave device. The REU 523 supports the IEC 60870-5-103 remote communication protocol in the unbalanced transmission mode with a data transfer rate of 9.6 kbps. The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is used to transfer mesurand and status data from the slave to the master. Disturbance recorder data, however, cannot be transferred using this protocol. The REU 523 is provided with two serial communication ports, one on the rear panel and the other on the front panel.

bance recorder which records the momentary measured values, or the RMS curves of the measured signals, and eight digital signals: the external binary input signal and the states of the internal protection stages. The disturbance recorder can be set to be triggered by a start or a trip signal from any protection stage and/or by an external binary input signal, and either on the falling or rising triggering edge. The ratio of the pre- and post-triggering of the recording can be set. The recording length varies according to the selected sampling frequency. The RMS curve is recorded by selecting the sampling frequency to be the same as the nominal frequency of the relay. See the table below for details:

Nominal frequency Hz

The REU 523 is interfaced with a fibre-optic bus by means of the bus connection module RER 103 via the D9S-type RS-485 connector on the rear panel of the device. The RER 103 enables the use of either the SPA bus or the IEC 60870-5-103 communication protocol. The use of the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol normally requires the fibre-optic star coupler RER 125. The optical PC-connector on the front panel is used to connect the relay to the CAP 501/ 505 setting and configuration tools. The front interface uses the SPA bus protocol. The optical PC-connector galvanically isolates the PC from the relay. Since this connector is standardized for ABB relay products, only one connecting cable (ABB art. No 1MKC950001-1) will be required.

The REU 523 can also be connected to the Lon bus using a LON-SPA Gateway.

Auxiliary Supply Voltage

The REU 523 requires a secured auxiliary voltage supply to operate. The internal power supply of the relay forms the voltages required by the relay electronics. The power supply is a galvanically isolated (flyback-type) DC/DC converter. When the auxiliary voltage is connected, the READY indicator LED on the front panel will be on. The primary side of the power supply is protected with a fuse located on the PCB of the relay. The fuse size is 3.15 A (slow).
