Calculate IDMT Over Current Relay Setting (50/51)

This document calculates the settings for an IDMT overcurrent relay to protect a feeder. It determines the low current pickup setting should be 0.8A and will operate in 0.271 seconds. The high current pickup setting is 2.5A and will operate in 0.34 seconds. These settings satisfy the conditions that the pickup current is greater than the overload current and operating time is less than the minimum fault current divided by the CT primary current.

Calculate IDMT over Current Relay Setting (50/51)

OCTOBER 11, 2013 38 COMMENTS


 Calculate setting of IDMT over Current Relay for following Feeder and CT Detail
 Feeder Detail: Feeder Load Current 384 Amp, Feeder Fault current Min11KA and Max 22KA.
 CT Detail: CT installed on feeder is 600/1 Amp. Relay Error 7.5%, CT Error 10.0%, CT over shoot 0.05 Sec, CT
interrupting Time is 0.17 Sec and Safety is 0.33 Sec.
 IDMT Relay Detail:
 IDMT Relay Low Current setting: Over Load Current setting is 125%, Plug setting of Relay is 0.8 Amp and Time
Delay (TMS) is 0.125 Sec, Relay Curve is selected as Normal Inverse Type.
 IDMT Relay High Current setting :Plug setting of Relay is 2.5 Amp and Time Delay (TMS) is 0.100 Sec, Relay
Curve is selected as Normal Inverse Type
Calculation of Over Current Relay Setting:

(1) Low over Current Setting: (I>)


 Over Load Current (In) = Feeder Load Current X Relay setting = 384 X 125% =480 Amp
 Required Over Load Relay Plug Setting= Over Load Current (In) / CT Primary Current
 Required Over Load Relay Plug Setting = 480 / 600 = 0.8
 Pick up Setting of Over Current Relay (PMS) (I>)= CT Secondary Current X Relay Plug Setting
 Pick up Setting of Over Current Relay (PMS) (I>)= 1 X 0.8 = 0.8 Amp
 Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) = Min. Feeder Fault Current / (PMS X (CT Pri. Current / CT Sec. Current))
 Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) = 11000 / (0.8 X (600 / 1)) = 22.92
 Operation Time of Relay as per it’s Curve
 Operating Time of Relay for Very Inverse Curve (t) =13.5 / ((PSM)-1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Extreme Inverse Curve (t) =80/ ((PSM)2 -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Long Time Inverse Curve (t) =120 / ((PSM) -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Normal Inverse Curve (t) =0.14 / ((PSM) 0.02 -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Normal Inverse Curve (t)=0.14 / ( (22.92)0.02-1) = 2.17 Amp
 Here Time Delay of Relay (TMS) is 0.125 Sec so
 Actual operating Time of Relay (t>) = Operating Time of Relay X TMS =2.17 X 0.125 =0.271 Sec
 Grading Time of Relay = [((2XRelay Error)+CT Error)XTMS]+ Over shoot+ CB Interrupting Time+ Safety
 Total Grading Time of Relay=[((2X7.5)+10)X0.125]+0.05+0.17+0.33 = 0.58 Sec
 Operating Time of Previous upstream Relay = Actual operating Time of Relay+ Total Grading
Time Operating Time of Previous up Stream Relay = 0.271 + 0.58 = 0.85 Sec
(2) High over Current Setting: (I>>)
 Pick up Setting of Over Current Relay (PMS) (I>>)= CT Secondary Current X Relay Plug Setting
 Pick up Setting of Over Current Relay (PMS) (I>)= 1 X 2.5 = 2.5 Amp
 Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) = Min. Feeder Fault Current / (PMS X (CT Pri. Current / CT Sec. Current))
 Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) = 11000 / (2.5 X (600 / 1)) = 7.33
 Operation Time of Relay as per it’s Curve
 Operating Time of Relay for Very Inverse Curve (t) =13.5 / ((PSM)-1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Extreme Inverse Curve (t) =80/ ((PSM)2 -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Long Time Inverse Curve (t) =120 / ((PSM) -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Normal Inverse Curve (t) =0.14 / ((PSM) 0.02 -1).
 Operating Time of Relay for Normal Inverse Curve (t)=0.14 / ( (7.33)0.02-1) = 3.44 Amp
 Here Time Delay of Relay (TMS) is 0.100 Sec so
 Actual operating Time of Relay (t>) = Operating Time of Relay X TMS =3.44 X 0.100 =0.34 Sec
 Grading Time of Relay = [((2XRelay Error)+CT Error)XTMS]+ Over shoot+ CB Interrupting Time+ Safety
 Total Grading Time of Relay=[((2X7.5)+10)X0.100]+0.05+0.17+0.33 = 0.58 Sec
 Operating Time of Previous upstream Relay = Actual operating Time of Relay+ Total Grading Time.
 Operating Time of Previous up Stream Relay = 0.34 + 0.58 = 0.85 Sec
Conclusion of Calculation:
 Pickup Setting of over current Relay (PMS) (I>) should be satisfied following Two Condition.
 (1) Pickup Setting of over current Relay (PMS)(I>) >= Over Load Current (In) / CT Primary Current
 (2) TMS <= Minimum Fault Current / CT Primary Current
 For Condition (1) 0.8 > =(480/600) = 0.8 >= 0.8, Which found OK
 For Condition (2) 0.125 <= 11000/600 = 0.125 <= 18.33, Which found OK
 Here Condition (1) and (2) are satisfied so
 Pickup Setting of Over Current Relay = OK
 Low Over Current Relay Setting: (I>) = 0.8A X In Amp
 Actual operating Time of Relay (t>) = 0.271 Sec
 High Over Current Relay Setting: (I>>) = 2.5A X In Amp
 Actual operating Time of Relay (t>>) = 0.34 Sec
