1 Introduction
Analog Inputs The measuring inputs (MI) section consists of current and voltage transformers. They
convert the signals from the primary transformers to levels appropriate for the internal
processing of the 7UM62.
Eight current inputs are available in the MI section. Three inputs are used on each side
of the protected object for measuring of the phase currents. 2 current inputs are

1.1 Overall Operation
equipped with sensitive input transformers (IEE) and can measure secondary currents
in the mA range.
A voltage measuring input is provided for each phase-earth voltage (connection to
phase-to-phase voltages and voltage transformers in V connection is possible as
well). A further voltage input (UN) may optionally be used to measure either the
displacement voltage or any other voltage UX (for injected voltage of rotor protection).
The analog-to-digital (AD) stage consists of memory components, a multiplexer, and
an multichannel analog-to-digital converter. The A/D converter processes the analog
signals from the IA stage. The digital signals from the converter are input to the
microcomputer system where they are processed as numerical values in the residing
algorithms.
Microcomputer The actual protection and control functions of the 7UM62 are processed in the
System microcomputer system (µC). Specifically, the µC performs:
− Filtering and preparation of the measured quantities
− Permanent supervision of the measured quantities
− Monitoring of the pickup conditions for the individual protection functions
− Evaluation of limit values and sequences in time
− Control of signals for the logic functions
− Decision for trip commands
− Signalling of protection behaviour via LED, LCD, relay or serial interface
− Recording of messages and data for events, alarms, faults, and control actions, and
provision of their data for analysis
− Management of the operating system and the associated functions such as data
recording, real-time clock, communications, interfaces, etc.
Adaptation of The frequency of the measured quantities is continuously measured and used for
Sampling determination of the actual sampling frequency. This ensures that the protection
Frequency functions are always processed with algorithms matched to the actual frequency.
Thus, a wide frequency range from 11 Hz to 69 Hz is specified with small frequency
influence.
The sampling frequency adaptation can, however, operate only when at least one a.c.
measured quantity is present at one of the analog inputs, with an amplitude of at least
5 % of rated value (“operational condition 1”).
If no suitable a.c. measured values are present, or if the frequency is below 11 Hz or
above 70 Hz, the relay operates in mode “operational condition 0” (refer to Section
4.34).
Binary Inputs and The µC obtains external information through the binary inputs such as blocking
Outputs commands for protective functions or position indications of circuit breakers. The µC
issues commands to external equipment via the output contacts. These output
commands are generally used to operate circuit breakers or other switching devices.
They can also be connected to other protective devices, annunciators, or external
carrier equipment for use in Pilot-Relaying schemes.
Front Elements Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a display screen (LCD) on the front panel provide
information such as messages related to events and functional status of the 7UM62.

1 Introduction
Integrated control and numeric keys in conjunction with the LCD facilitate local
interaction with the 7UM62. All information of the device can be accessed using the
integrated control and numeric keys. The information includes protective and control
settings, operating and fault messages, and metering values (see also SIPROTEC®
4–System Manual). The settings can be modified; the procedures are discussed in
Chapter 2.
Serial Interfaces A serial operator interface (PC port) on the front panel is provided for local
communications with the 7UM62 through a personal computer. Convenient operation
of all functions of the device is possible using the SIPROTEC® 4 operating program
DIGSI® 4.
A separate serial service interface is provided for remote communications via a
modem, or local communications via a substation master computer that is
permanently connected to the 7UM62. DIGSI® 4 is required.
All 7UM62 data can be transferred to a central master or main control system through
the serial system (SCADA) interface. Various protocols and physical arrangements
are available for this interface to suit the particular application.
A fourth interface is provided for time synchronization of the internal clock by
external sources.
Further communications protocols can be realized via additional interface modules.
Analog Outputs/ Depending on the ordering variant and configuration, Port B and D can be equipped
Temperature Input with analog output modules for the output of selected measured values (0 to 20 mA).
If these ports are equipped with input modules (RS485 or optical) instead, tempera-
tures can be fed in from an external temperature detection unit.
Power Supply The 7UM62 can be supplied with any of the common power supply voltages from 24
VDC to 250 VDC. The device can also be supplied with 115 VAC. Momentary dips of
the supply voltage up to 50 ms are bridged by a capacitor (see Technical Data, Sub-
section 4.1.2). Voltage dips can occur, for example, if the voltage supply system
(substation battery) becomes short-circuited or experiences a severe variation in load.

Storage of Data for can be displayed locally and communicated via the serial interfaces.
Fault Recordings
Messages of the 7UM62 can be indicated by a number of programmable LEDs on the
front panel, externally processed through programmable output contacts, and
communicated via the serial interfaces (see “Communication” below). With the help of
the CFC graphic tool (Continous Function Chart), user-defined annunciations and
logical combinations of internal or external signals can also be generated.
During a network fault (fault in the power system), important events and state changes
are stored in a fault annunciation buffer. The instantaneous measured values during
the fault are also stored in the device and are subsequently available for fault analysis.
Communication Serial interfaces are available for communications with external operating, control,
and storage systems.
Operator Interface A serial operator interface on the front panel is provided for local communications with
on Front Panel the through a personal computer. All of the operating and evaluation processes can
be done via this operator interface using the DIGSI® 4 software. These processes
include selecting and modifying the settings, allocation of the binary inputs and
outputs, configuration of the user-definable logic functions, reading the event and fault
data, retrieving the measured values, obtaining the oscillographic fault records,
reading the states of the 7UM62 and the measurement quantities, and issuing control
commands.
Interfaces on Back Further interfaces are located on the back of the 7UM62 — dependent on the version
of the device. Comprehensive communications are possible between these interfaces
and other digital equipment used for operating, control, and data storage.
The service interface can be operated through data lines. Also, a modem can be
connected to this port. Servicing of the substation or plant is possible from a remote
computer with DIGSI® 4.
The system interface is for central communications between the 7UM62 and a control
station. The service interface can be operated through data lines or optical fibres.
Several standard protocols are available:
− IEC 60870–5–103
Integration of the devices into the automation systems SINAUT® LSA and SICAM®
also take place with this profile.
− Profibus DP
This protocol of automation technology allows to transmit annunciations and
measured values.
− Modbus ASCII/RTU
This protocol of automation technology allows to transmit annunciations and
measured values.
− DNP 3.0
This protocol of automation technology allows to transmit annunciations and
measured values.
− It is also possible to provide an analog output (2 x 20 mA) for the output of measured
values.

Further technical data is provided within the framework of the functional setting
specifications of the individual protective functions.
The calculated setting values are secondary setting values related to the device and
can be modified immediately by way of local operation.
The use of the DIGSI® 4 operating program is recommended for complete
reparameterization. In this way, the user has the possibility to specify primary values
in addition to secondary settings. Within the framework of the 7UM62 the specification
of primary values is performed as a setting related to the nominal quantities of the
object to be protected (IN, G; UN, G; SN, G). This procedure has the advantage that
system-independent, typical settings of the protective functions can be pre-specified.
The data of the individual power system are updated in the power system data (see
sections 2.3 and 2.5) and the conversion to secondary values is executed via a mouse
click. All necessary conversion formula of the individual functions are stored in the
operating program.

2.2.1 Description
General The 7UM62 has numerous protective and additional functions. The hardware and
firmware provided is designed for this scope of functions. Nevertheless a few
restrictions apply to the use of the earth fault current and earth fault voltage inputs UE
and IEE respectively. It is not possible to feed different measured quantities to one and
the same input, i.e. to use the input, for example, for both rotor and stator earth fault
protection. Table 2-2 gives an overview of the protective functions and the inputs they
use.
The command functions can be matched to the plant conditions. In addition, individual
functions can be activated or deactivated during the configuration procedure, so that
functions that are not needed can be disabled.
The available protective and additional functions can be configured as Enabled or
Disabled. For individual functions, the choice between several alternatives may be
presented, as described below.
Functions that are configured as Disabled are not processed by the 7UM62: There
are no messages, and corresponding settings (functions, limit values) are not
displayed during detailed settings.
Note:
The functions and default settings depend of the variant ordered (for details refer to
Table 2-1 and Appendix A.1). Also, not all combinations of protective functions are
possible because of certain restrictions imposed by the hardware (see Table 2-2,
“Allocation of Device Inputs to Protection Functions”).
Determination of Configuration settings may be entered using a PC and the software program DIGSI® 4
Functional Scope and transferred via the operator interface on the device front, or via the rear serial
service interface. Operation is described in the SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual.
Entry of password No. 7 (for setting modification) is required to modify configuration
settings. Without the password, the settings may be read, but cannot be modified and
transmitted to the device.
The functional scope with the available options is set in the Device Configuration
dialog box to match plant requirements.
Special Cases Most settings are self-explanatory. The special cases are described below.
If the setting group change-over function is to be used, the setting in address 0103
Grp Chge OPTION must be set to enabled. In this case, it is possible to apply two
groups of settings for the function parameters (refer also to Section 2.4) so that a
convenient and fast switch-over between these setting groups is possible. The setting
Disabled implies that only one function parameter setting group can be applied and
used.

Parameter 0104 FAULT VALUE is used to specify whether the oscillographic fault
recording should record Instantaneous values or RMS values. If RMS values
are recorded, the available recording time increases by the factor 16.
For some protective functions you can also choose the measuring inputs of the relay
to which they will be allocated (side 1 or side 2); for other functions the allocation is
fixed (see Table 2-2).
For example, address 0112 O/C PROT. I> allows such a choice for the I> stage of
the overcurrent protection (= Side 1, Side 2 or Disabled).
For the high-current stage I>> of the overcurrent protection, address 0113 O/C
PROT. I>> allows non-directional operation for side 1/side 2 or directional operation
for side 1/side2. By setting Disabled, this overcurrent stage can be excluded
altogether. For the inverse time overcurrent protection set in address 0114 O/C
PROT. Ip, different sets of inverse characteristics are available, depending on the
version ordered; they are either according to IEC or according to ANSI. This function,
too, can be allocated to either side 1 or side 2 (= with IEC-characteristic on
side 1, with ANSI-characteristic on side 1, with IEC-
characteristic on side 2, with ANSI-characteristic on side 2).
Inverse time overcurrent protection can be excluded altogether by setting Disabled.
Table 2-2 shows the allocation of device inputs to the protection functions. The
interdependencies shown here must be kept in mind when configuring the plant. This
concerns the UE input, the two sensitive current inputs IEE1 and IEE2 as well as the
3 measuring transducer inputs (TD). Where the UE input is used e.g. by the stator
earth fault protection functions, it is no longer available for rotor earth fault protection
(R, fn) (see also Table 2-3). The same restrictions are true for measuring transducer
inputs, which can only be used by one protection function at a time. Where the TDs
are not used by any protection function, they are available for general processing by
the measured value blocks in CFC.

For earth fault protection, address 0150 S/E/F PROT. presents the options non-
dir. only U0, non-dir. U0&I0 and Directional, unless the whole function is
Disabled. The first option evaluates only the displacement voltage (to be used with

the magnitude of the earth fault current (or the difference between the starpoint current
and the total current of a toroidal CT, as is the case in busbar systems with low-ohmic
switchable starpoint resistors). The third option considers as a third criterion the
direction of the earth fault current in the case of machines in busbar connection where
the magnitudes of displacement voltage and earth fault current alone are not sufficient
to distinguish between system earth faults and machine earth faults.
Address 0151 O/C PROT. Iee> is used to specify which input will be used for earth

If the 7UM62 is equipped with analog outputs and you want to use them, the
addresses 0173, 0174, 0175 and 0176 allow to allocate the available measured

the block address 0173.
For trip circuit monitoring, address 0182 Trip Cir. Sup. is used to specify whether
two binary inputs (with 2 Binary Inputs) or only one binary input (with 1

Power System Data 1
General The device requires certain basic data regarding the protected equipment, so that the
device will be compatible with its desired application. These may be, for instance,
rated power system and transformer data, measured quantity polarities and their
physical connections, breaker properties etc. There are also certain parameters that
are common to all functions, i.e. not associated with a specific protection, control or
monitoring functions. The following section discusses these Power System Data 1.
The Power System Data 1 can be changed from the operator or service interface with
a personal computer using DIGSI® 4.
In DIGSI® 4, double-click Settings to display the data available.
Connection of the At address 0201 STRPNT->OBJ S1 you specify the polarity of the CTs of plant side
Current 1, i.e. the location of the CT starpoint with reference to the protected object. At address
Transformer Sets 0210 STRPNT->OBJ S2 the polarity of the CTs of side 2 is specified. This setting
determines the measuring direction of the 7UM62 (STRPNT->OBJ S2 = Yes =
Forwards = line direction). Figure 2-6 shows the definition even in cases where there
are no starpoint CTs.

CTs and VTs entered regarding the primary nominal voltage and secondary nominal currents of the
CTs of side 1. It is important to ensure that the rated secondary current of the current
transformer matches the rated current of the device, otherwise the device will
incorrectly calculate primary amperes.
W0 Correction A correction of the angle faults of the current transformers and voltage transformers is
Angle particularly important with regard to the reverse power protection, as in this case, a
very low active power is calculated from a very high apparent power (for small cos ϕ
(PF)).
At address 0204 CT ANGLE W0 a constant correction angle can be entered for the
CTs of side 2.
The angle fault difference ∆ϕ between the current transformers and voltage
transformers is particularly important in this context. As a correction, the sum of the
mean angle errors of the current transformers and voltage transformers is set. The
corrective value can be determined within the framework of machine commissioning
(see Section 3.4.10.2).
Iee Transformation For the conversion of the ground currents Iee in primary quantities, the device requires

for input 1 is set at the address 0205 FACTOR IEE1, the ratio for input 2 at 0213

Transformation For the conversion of the displacement voltage UE in primary quantities, the device
Ratio UE requires the primary/secondary transformation ratio of the transformer delivering the
UE voltage. With the exception of the rotor earth fault protection, the 0224 FACTOR
UE has an impact on those protection functions which process the UE input directly, as
shown in Table 2-3. For this ratio 0224 FACTOR UE the following general formula
applies:
U VT, prim
0224 FACTOR UE = -----------------------
U E, sec
In this context, UVT, prim is the primary voltage and UE, sec is the secondary
displacement voltage applied to the device. If a voltage divider is used, its divider ratio
also influences this factor. The following equation results for the example in Figure 2-
1b with the power system data selected there and an 1:5 voltage divider ratio:
6.3 kV ⁄ ( 3 )

Functions
Uph/Uen Adaption The address 0225A serves to communicate the adaptation factor between the phase
Factor voltage and the displacement voltage to the device. This information is relevant for
measured-quantity monitoring.
If the voltage transformer set has broken delta windings and if these windings are
connected to the device (VN input), this must be specified accordingly in address 0223
(see below at side title ”Voltage Connection UE”). As the transformation ratio of the
voltage transformers is usually:
⁄ --------------
- ⁄ --------------
U Nprim U Nsec UNsec
----------------- -
3 3 3
the factor Uph/Uen (secondary voltage, address 0225A Uph / Udelta) in relation to
3/√3 = √3 = 1.73 must be used if the Uen voltage is connected. For other
transformation ratios, i.e. the formation of the displacement voltage via an
interconnected transformer set, the factor must be corrected accordingly.
Protected Object: If you have specified a transformer as the protected object during configuration of the
Transformer differential protection, the parameter 0241 UN-PRI SIDE 1 appears in the Power
System Data 1. It specifies the nominal primary voltage of side 1 of the protected
object (transformer).
At address 0242 STARPNT SIDE 1 you specify the whether the starpoint of side 1
is (Solid Earthed or Isolated). This setting has an influence on the measured
value monitoring (summation current monitoring); in transformer differential
protection, it is also important for the vector group correction and the treatment of the
zero sequence current.
The setting Isolated can be chosen if the starpoint has no earthing. If the
transformer starpoint is connected to a Petersen coil or a surge voltage arrester,
choose the setting Solid Earthed. The same applies to low-ohmic or solid starpoint
earthing.
The parameters 0243 UN-PRI SIDE 2 and 0244 STARPNT SIDE 2 determine
respectively the rated primary voltage and the starpoint of side 2 of the transformer.
Parameter 0246 VECTOR GRP S2 is used to specify the vector group numeral
referred to side 1 of the transformer. It is not necessary to specify whether the
connection is delta, wye or zigzag.
At address 0249 SN TRANSFORMER the rated apparent power of the transformer is
input. The nominal currents for side 1 and 2 are calculated on this basis as follows:
S N, Transf S N, Transf
I N, S1 = ---------------------------- IN, S2 = ----------------------------
U N, S1 ⋅ 3 U N, S2 ⋅ 3
These nominal currents are only considered for differential protection and can differ
from the generator ratings.
For the overcurrent protection functions (Sections 2.6, 2.7, and 2.8) and for the break-
er failure protection, sides 1 and 2 can be allocated freely. With the differential protec-
tion set to 0120 3 phase transf., the following normalizing factors apply for the
primary side protection settings in DIGSI.

Protected Object: Regardless of the configuration and intended use of the differential protection, the
Generator/Motor generator/motor ratings must be specified. Parameter 0251 UN GEN/MOTOR
specifies the primary rated voltage of the protected generator or motor. At parameter

tection functions (Sections 2.6, 2.7, and 2.8) and of the breaker failure protection,
where the sides (side 1 and side 2) can be freely allocated. Normalization is active if
the differential protection in the scope of functions is set to 0120 Disabled or Gen-
erator/Motor. It applies for both side 1 and side 2.
Rated Frequency The rated system frequency is set at address 0270 Rated Frequency. The setting
is dependent on the model number of the relay purchased, and must be in accordance
with the nominal frequency of the power system.
Phase Rotation Address 0271 PHASE SEQ. is used to establish phase rotation reversal. The default
(Phase Sequence) phase sequence is (L1 L2 L3 for clockwise rotation) can be changed if your power
system permanently has an anti-clockwise phase sequence (L1 L3 L2). A
temporary reversal of rotation is also possible using binary inputs (see Section 2.43).

Operating Mode The 0272 SCHEME setting is used for specifying if the generator to be protected is
operated in the Unit transformer connected or in the Direct connected to
busbar mode. This specification is important for the stator earth fault connection and
for the inverse O/C time protection with undervoltage consideration, as different
voltages are used here, depending on the corresponding operating mode (see
”Undervoltage Consideration” in Section 2.8.1).

ATEX100 Parameter 0274A ATEX100 allows compliance with PTB requirements (special
requirements for Germany) for thermal replicas. If this parameter is set to YES, all
thermal replicas of the 7UM62 are stored in case of a power supply failure. As soon
as the supply voltage returns, the thermal replicas continue operating with the stored
values. If the parameter is set to NO, the calculated overtemperature values of all
thermal replicas are reset to zero in case of a power supply failure.
Trip Command Address 0280 is used to set the minimum time the tripping contacts will remain closed
Duration (TMin TRIP CMD). This setting applies to all protective functions that initiate tripping.
Current Flow Address 0281 BkrClosed I MIN corresponds to the threshold value of the
Monitoring integrated current flow monitoring feature. This setting is used for the elapsed-time
meter and the overload protection. If the set threshold current is exceeded, the circuit
breaker is considered closed and the power system is considered to be in operation.
In the case of overload protection, this criterion serves for distinguishing between the
standstill and the motion of the machine to be protected.
Measuring Measuring transducer 1 is provided for DC voltage/DC current protection or the rotor
Transducer 1 earth fault protection with 1 to 3 Hz (UControl). Depending on the intended application,
select at address 0295 TRANSDUCER 1 either 10 V, 4–20 mA or 20 mA. In the first
case, the measuring range is between –10 V and +10 V. The 4–20 mA interface is
designed for operation with sign, i.e. a current of 12 mA corresponds to an input value
of 0 (see Figure 2-9). With currents in excess of < 2 mA, the device signals a wire
break. The alarm drops out at currents below > 3 mA. If the alternative 20 mA is
selected, the measuring range is between –20 mA and + 20 mA.

Setting Groups
Purpose of Setting Two independent groups of parameters can be set for the device functions. The user
Groups can switch back and forward between setting groups locally, via binary inputs (if so
configured), via the operator or service interface using a personal computer, or via the
system interface.
A setting group includes the setting values for all functions that have been selected as
Enabled during configuration (see Section 2.2). In the 7UM62 relay, two independent
setting groups (A and B) are available. While setting values may vary among the two
setting groups, the selected functions of each setting group remain the same.
Where different settings are required for operational reasons, e.g. in pumped storage
power stations with a machine operating alternately as a generator and a motor, these
settings are made in the setting groups and stored in the device. Every time the
operating mode changes, the applicable setting group is activated, usually by a binary
input.
If multiple setting groups are not required, Group A is the default selection, and the
following paragraph is not applicable.
If multiple setting groups are desired, Grp Chge OPTION = Enabled must have been
set (address 0103). When setting the function parameters, you configure first setting
group A, then setting group B. To find out how to proceed for this, how to copy and to
reset settings groups, and how to switch between setting groups during operation,
please refer to the DIGSI® 4System Manual, Order No. E50417–H1176–C151.

Functions
General The overcurrent protection is used as backup protection for the short-circuit protection
of the protected object. It also provides backup protection for downstream network
faults which are not promptly disconnected and thus may endanger the protected
object.
The 7UM62 relay allows to choose between the input transformers of side 1 and side
2 for allocation of the overcurrent protection function. This choice is made during
configuration (see Section 2.2).
Initially, the currents are numerically filtered so that only the fundamental-frequency
currents are used for the measurement. This makes the measurement insensitive to
transient conditions at the inception of a short-circuit and to asymmetrical short-circuit
currents (d.c. component).
In generators where the excitation voltage is derived from the machine terminals, the
short-circuit current subsides quickly in the event of close-up faults (i.e. in the
generator or unit transformer range) due to the absence of excitation voltage the
current decreases within a few seconds to a value below the pick-up value of the
overcurrent time protection. To avoid that the relay drops out again, the I> stage
monitors the positive-sequence component of the voltages and uses it as an additional
criterion for detecting a short-circuit. The undervoltage influencing can be switched off
and made ineffective by means of a binary input.
I> stage Each phase current is compared individually with the I> common setting value.
Currents above these value are recorded and signalled individually. As soon as the
corresponding T I> time delay has elapsed, a trip signal is transmitted to the matrix.
In the delivery status of the device, the drop-out value is set to ± 95 % below the pick-
up value. For special applications, it is also possible to specify a higher value.
Undervoltage Seal- The I> stage has an undervoltage stage that can be disabled. This stage maintains
In the pick-up signal for a settable seal-in time if the value falls below a settable threshold
of the positive-sequence component of the voltages after an overcurrent pickup - even
if the current falls again below the overcurrent pick-up value. This will ensure that the
50-1 timer is sealed in, and will time-out to trip the associated circuit-breakers. If the
voltage recovers before the seal-in time has elapsed or if the undervoltage seal-in is
blocked via a binary input, e.g. when the voltage transformer miniature circuit breaker
(m.c.b.) trips or if the machine is tripped, the function will drop out immediately.
The seal-in logic operates separately for each phase. The first pickup of a phase
overcurrent starts the timer T-SEAL-IN.

Overcurrent Address 1201 O/C I> is used to switch the definite time-overcurrent stage I> ON or
Stage I> OFF, or to block only the trip command (Block Relay. The setting of the I> stage is
mainly determined by the maximum operating current. Pickup due to overload should
never occur since the protection may trip if short command times are set. For this
reason, a setting equal to 20 % to 30 % over the expected peak load is recommended
for generators, and a setting equal to 40 % over the expected peak load is
recommended for transformers and motors.
The trip time delay (parameter 1203 T I>) must be coordinated with the time grading
of the network in order to ensure that the protective equipment closest to the
corresponding fault location trips first (selectivity).
The settable time is only an additional time delay and does not include the operating
time (measuring time, drop-out time). The delay can be set to infinity ∞. If set to infinity,
the stage will not trip after pickup. However, the pickup is signalled. If the I> stage is
not required at all, 1201 O/C I> = OFF is set. For this setting, there is neither a pickup

Functions
The overcurrent protection is used as backup protection for the short-circuit protection
of the protected object. It also provides backup protection for downstream network
faults which are not promptly disconnected and thus may endanger the protected
object.
The 7UM62 relay allows to choose between the input transformers of side 1 and side
2 for allocation of the overcurrent protection function. This choice is made during
configuration (see Section 2.2).
In order to ensure that pick-up always occurs even with internal faults, the protection
- for generators - is usually connected to the current transformer set in the neutral
leads of the machine (side 2). If this is not the case for an individual power system, the
I>> stage can be combined with a short-circuit direction determination and switch off
a generator short circuit by way of an undelayed tripping; the selectivity is not affected
by this.
Initially, the currents are numerically filtered so that only the fundamental-frequency
currents are used for the measurement. This makes the measurement insensitive to
transient conditions at the inception of a short-circuit and to asymmetrical short-circuit
currents (d.c. component).
Direction Detection If this protection function has been assigned to the input transformers of side 1, the
I>> stage is equipped with a (disconnectable) direction element permitting a tripping
only for faults in backward (i.e. machine) direction.
For this reason, this stage can be used especially in applications where no current
transformers exist in the generator starpoint and undelayed tripping is nevertheless
required in case of generator faults (see figure 2-11).

7UM62 Manual 47
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
General The overcurrent time protection represents the short-circuit protection for small or low-
voltage machines. For larger machines it is used as back-up protection for the
machine short-circuit protection (differential protection and/or impedance protection).
It provides back-up protection for network faults which are not promptly disconnected
and thus may endanger the machine.
The 7UM62 relay allows to choose between the input transformers of side 1 and side
2 for allocation of the inverse-time overcurrent protection function. This choice is made
during configuration (see Section 2.2).
In generators where the excitation voltage is derived from the machine terminals, the
short-circuit current subsides quickly in the event of close-up faults (i.e. in the
generator or unit transformer range) due to the absence of excitation voltage the
current decreases within a few seconds to a value below the pick-up value of the
overcurrent time protection. In order to avoid a drop out of the pickup, the positive-
sequence component is monitored additionally. This component can influence the
overcurrent detection according to two different methods. The influence of the
undervoltage can be switched off.
The protective function operates, depending on the ordering variant, with an inverse
current-tripping characteristic according to the IEC or ANSI standards. The
characteristic curves and the corresponding formulas are represented in Technical
Data (Figures 4-1 to 4-3 in Section 4.3). If one of the inverse characteristics (IEC or
ANSI) are configured, the definite-time stages I>> and I> can be additionally effective
(see Section 2.6 and 2.7).
Pickup / Each phase current is compared individually with the common Ip setting value. If a
Trip current exceeds 1.1 times the set value, the stage picks up and is signalled on a per
phase basis. The r.m.s. values of the fundamental component are used for the pickup.
During the pickup of an Ip stage, the tripping time is calculated from the flowing fault
current by means of an integrated measuring procedure, depending on the selected
tripping characteristic. A trip command is transmitted after this time expires.
Dropout The dropout of a picked up stage is performed as soon as the value falls below
approximately 95 % of the pickup value (i.e. 0.95 ⋅1.1 = 1.045 ⋅ setting value). The
timer will start again for all new pickups.
Undervoltage The inverse O/C time protection is equipped with a undervoltage detection that can be
Consideration disabled. This function can influence the overcurrent detection in two different ways:
• Voltage controlled:
If the value falls below a settable voltage threshold, an overcurrent stage with a
lower pick-up value is enabled.
• Voltage restraint:
The pickup threshold of the overcurrent stage depends on the voltage level. A lower
voltage reduces the current pick-up value (see Figure 2-16). A linear, directly
proportional dependency is realized in the zone between U/UNom = 1.00 and 0.25.
Consequently, the following rule applies:

below 95 % of the pick-up value.
The current is set at address1402 Ip. The maximum operating current is of primary
importance for the setting. A pickup caused by an overload must be excluded, as the
device operates in this mode as short-circuit protection with correspondingly short
relay times and not as overload protection.
The corresponding time multiplier for configuration of IEC characteristics (address
0114 O/C PROT. Ip = IEC Side n) is accessible at address 1403 T Ip. At
address 1405 IEC CURVE, 3 IEC characteristics can be set.
The time multiplier for configuring ANSI characteristics (address 0114 O/C PROT.
Ip= ANSI Side n) can be found at address 1404 TIME DIAL: TD; parameter 1406
ANSI CURVE offers a choice between 5 ANSI characteristics.
The time multipliers must be coordinated with the network grading plan.
The time multipliers can also be set to ∞. If set to infinity, the stage will not trip after
pickup. However, the pickup is signalled. If the Ip stage is not required at all, set at the
address 0114 O/C PROT. Ip = Disabled, or switch the function out by setting 1401
O/C Ip = OFF during configuration (see Section 2.2).
The address 1408 serves to predefine the U< pick-up value for the undervoltage trip
of the Ip pickup value for voltage-controlled inverse O/C time protection/AMZ
(parameter 1407 VOLT. INFLUENCE = Voltage controlled). The parameter is
set to a value situated just below the lowest phase-to-phase voltage permissible
during operation, e.g. from 75 to 80 V. In this context, the same rules apply as for the
undervoltage seal-in of the definite O/C time protection (see also subsection 2.6.2).
If at address 1407 VOLT. INFLUENCE = Without or Voltage restraint is set,
the parameter 1408 has no function.

Thermal Overload Protection (ANSI 49)
General The thermal overload protection feature of the 7UM61 is designed to prevent
overloads from damaging the protected equipment.
The device is capable of projecting excessive operating temperatures for the
protected equipment in accordance with a thermal model, based on the following
differential equation:
dΘ 1 1 2 1
-------- + --- ⋅ Θ = --- ⋅ I + --- ⋅ Θ K
dt τ τ τ
The thermal overload protection feature models a heat image of the equipment being
protected. Both the previous history of an overload and the heat loss to the
environment are taken into account.
The solution of this equation is in steady-state operation an e-function whose
asymptote represents the final temperature ΘEnd. The thermal overload protection
calculates the operating temperature of the protected equipment in per cent of the
maximum allowable operating temperature. When the calculated operating
temperature reaches a settable percentage of the maximum allowable operating
temperature, a warning message is issued to allow time for the load reduction
measures to take place. If the second temperature threshold, i.e. end temperature =
trip temperature, is reached, the protected equipment is disconnected from the
network. It is also possible, however, to set the overload protection to Alarm only.
If this option is set, the device only outputs an alarm, even if the end temperature is
reached.
The temperature rise is calculated from the highest of the three phase currents. Since
the calculation is based on the r.m.s. values of the currents, it also considers
harmonics which contribute to a temperature rise of the stator winding.
The maximum thermally permissible continuous current Imax is described as a multiple
of the rated current I N of the protected object:
Imax = k · IN
In addition to the k factor (parameter K-FACTOR), the TIME CONSTANT τ and the
alarm temperature Q ALARM (in percent of the trip temperature ΘTRIP) must be
specified.
The thermal overload protection also features a current warning element I ALARM in
addition to the temperature warning stage. The current warning element may report
an overload current prematurely (before Imax is exceeded), even if the calculated
operating temperature has not yet attained the warning or tripping levels.
7UM62 Manual 55
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
Coolant The thermal model of the 7UM62 considers an external temperature value. Depending
Temperature/ on the application, this temperature can be the coolant or ambient temperature or, in
Ambient the case of gas turbines, the entry temperature of the cold gas. The temperature to be
Temperature considered can be fed in by one of the following:
− Measuring transducer (TD 2)
− Profibus DP interface/Modbus
− Temperature detection unit (Thermobox, RTD 1)
An external temperature sensor measures e.g. the coolant temperature and converts
it into a current or voltage that is proportional to the temperature. This output quantity
can be fed into the 7UM62 via the integrated measuring transducer TD 2. If a signal
level between 4 mA and 20 mA is used, the measuring circuit for temperature input
can additionally be monitored for interruptions. If the measured currents of the external
amplifier drops to less than 2 mA, the relay outputs an alarm, and switches at the same
time to the internal coolant temperature of 40 °C (which is the temperature assumed
if there is no coolant temperature detection).
The ambient or coolant temperature can also be detected by an external temperature
sensor, digitized and fed to the 7UM62 via the Profibus DP interface/ Modbus.
If a temperature supervision feature is implemented by means of the thermobox (see
section 2.42) the RTD1 input can be used for temperature inclusion considered by the
thermal replica.
Where the coolant temperature detection exists, the maximum permissible current
Imax is influenced by the temperature difference of the coolant. If the ambient or
coolant temperature is low, the machine can support a higher current than it does
when the temperature is high.
Current Limiting In order to avoid that the thermal overload protection reaches extremely short trip
times on occurrence of high short-circuit currents (and on selection of a small time
constant) and thus perhaps affects the time grading of the short-circuit protection, it is
possible to determine a current limiting of the overload protection. Currents exceeding
the value specified at parameter 1615A I MAX THERM. are limited to this value. For
this reason, they do not further reduce trip time in the thermal image.
Standstill Time The above differential equation assumes a constant cooling that is expressed by the
Constant time constant τ = Rth · Cth (thermal resistance and thermal capacitance). In a self-
ventilated machine, however, the thermal time constant at standstill can differ
considerably from the constant of a steadily running machine, since with the machine
running the ventilation provides for cooling whereas at standstill only the natural
convection occurs.
Therefore, two time constants must be considered in such cases for setting.
In this context, a machine standstill represents the moment when the current falls
below the threshold value BkrClosed I MIN (see side title”Current Flow Monitoring”
in Section 2.3).
Blocking The thermal overload protection feature may be reset via a binary input (”>RM
th.rep. O/L”). The current-induced overtemperature value is reset to zero. The
same is achieved by entering a blocking (”>BLK ThOverload”); in that case the
overload protection is blocked completely, including the current warning stage.
When machines must be started for emergency reasons, operating temperatures
above the maximum permissible operating temperatures can be allowed by blocking

(T EMERGENCY) which is started when the binary input drops out. Tripping will be
defeated until this time interval elapses. The binary input used for emergency starting
affects only the tripping signal. There is no effect on the fault event protocol, nor does
the thermal memory reset.
Behaviour in the For the overload protection, together with all other thermal protection functions of the
Case of a Power 7UM62, you can set in the Power System Data 1 (parameter 0274A ATEX100, see
Supply Failure Section 2.3) whether the calculated overtemperature will be buffered in case of a
power supply failure, or reset to zero. This second option is the default setting.

Thermal Overload Protection (ANSI 49)
General Thermal overload protection is only effective and accessible if address 0116
Therm.Overload was set to Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required.
Transformers and generators are prone to damage by overloads which last for an
extended period of time. For this reason, short circuit protection elements such as the
overcurrent protection should not be used to protect against overload. The short time
delays associated with short circuit protection do not allow sufficient time for the
orderly curtailment of load by operating personnel. In addition, short circuit protection
set to trip for overload will not allow short-duration, non-damaging overloads – a
practice which is often required in real operating situations.
The 7UM62 protective relay features an thermal overload protective function with a
thermal tripping characteristic curve which may be adapted to the overload tolerance
of the equipment being protected.
At the address 1601 Ther. OVER LOAD you can set the thermal overload protection
OFF or ON, you can block the trip command (Block relay for trip commands);
or set the protection function to Alarm Only. In that last case no fault record is
created n case of an overload. If the overload protection is switched ON, tripping is also
possible.
K–Factor The overload protection is set in per unit quantities. The nominal current IN, machine of
the object to be protected (generator, motor, transformer) is typically used as base
current. The thermally permissible continuous current Imax prim can be used to
calculate a factor kprim:
I max prim
k prim = --------------------------
I N, Machine
The thermally permissible continuous current for the equipment being protected is
indicated in the manufacturer’s specifications. If no specifications are available, a
value of 1.1 times the nominal current rating is assumed.
The K-FACTOR to be set at the 7UM62 (address 1602) refers to the secondary
nominal current (= device current). The following applies for the conversion:

Functions
Time Constant τ The thermal overload protection element tracks excessive temperature progression,
employing a thermal differential equation that uses an exponential function. The TIME
CONSTANT τ (address 1603) is used in the calculation to determine the operating
temperature.
If the overload characteristic of the generator to be protected is pre-determined, the
user must select the protection trip characteristic in a way that it covers the overload
characteristic to a large extent, at least with small overloads.
This is also the case if the permissible power-up time corresponding to a certain
overload value is indicated.
Warning By setting the thermal warning level Q ALARM (address 1604), a warning message
Temperature can be issued prior to tripping, thus allowing time for load curtailment procedures to
Levels be implemented. This warning level simultaneously represents the dropout level for
the tripping signal. In other words, the tripping signal is interrupted only when the
calculated operating temperature falls below the warning level, thus allowing the
protected equipment to be placed back into service.
The thermal warning level is given in % of the tripping temperature level (maximum
allowable operating temperature).
Note: With the typical value of K-FACTOR = 1.1, the following final tripping
overtemperature value results in case of the application of the nominal machine
current and adapted primary transformer current:
1
Θ ⁄ Θ Trip = ------------ = 83 %
2
1, 1
of the tripping temperature. Consequently, the warning stage should be set between
the final overtemperature with the nominal current (in this case 83 %) and the tripping
overtemperature (100 %).
In the present example, the thermal memory reaches the following value if the nominal
current is applied:
1
Θ ⁄ Θ Trip = --------------- = 76 %
2
1, 15
A current warning level (parameter 1610A I ALARM) is also available. The level is
set in secondary amperes, and should be set equal to, or slightly less than, the
permissible continuous current K-FACTOR · IN sec. The current warning level may be
used in lieu of the thermal warning level by setting the thermal warning level 100 %,
which makes it practically ineffective.
Extension of Time The time constant programmed at address 1603 is valid for a running machine. On
Constants at slowing down or standstill, the machine may cool down much slower. This behaviour
Machine Standstill can be modeled by means of a prolongation of the time constant by the Kt-FACTOR
(address 1612A) on machine standstill. In this context, a machine standstill represents
the moment when the current falls below the threshold value BkrClosed I MIN (see
side title ”Current Flow Monitoring” in Section 2.3).
If no distinguishing of the time constants is necessary, the Kt-FACTOR is left at 1
(default setting).
Current Limiting The parameter 1615A I MAX THERM. specifies up to which current value the trip
times are calculated according to the pre-defined thermal formula. In the trip
characteristics of Figure 4-4 in Section 4.4, this limit value determines the transition to
the horizontal part of the characteristics, in which there is no further trip time reduction
60 7UM62 Manual
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Thermal Overload Protection (ANSI 49)
despite increasing current values. The limit value must be specified at a value
ensuring that, even for the highest possible short-circuit current, the trip times of the
overload protection exceed the trip times of the short-circuit protective relays
(differential protection, impedance protection, time overcurrent protection). As a rule,
this parameter can be set to three times the nominal generator current.
Emergency The run-on time to be entered at address 1616A T EMERGENCY must be sufficient to
Starting ensure that after an emergency startup and dropout of binary input >Emer.Start O/
L” the trip command is blocked until the thermal replica is again below the dropout
threshold.
Ambient or Coolant The indications specified up to now are sufficient for the modeling of the
Temperature overtemperature. In addition to this, the machine protection can also process the
ambient or coolant temperature. This temperature value can be fed to the relay via
measuring transducer TD2 as a temperature-proportional DC current from a
measuring transducer with a live zero signal between 4 and 20 mA, or communicated
to the relay as digitalized measuring via the Fieldbus. Address 1607 TEMP. INPUT
serves to select the temperature input procedure. If there is no coolant temperature
detection, the address1607 is set to Disabled. The assignment between the input
signal and the temperature can be set at address 1608 (in °C) or 1609 (in °F) TEMP.

100 °C.

If the ambient temperature detection is used, the user must be aware that the K-
FACTOR to be set refers to an ambient temperature of 40 °C, i.e. it corresponds to the
maximum permissible current at a temperature of 40 °C.
All calculations are performed with standardized quantities. The ambient temperature
must also be standardized. The temperature with the nominal machine current is used
as standardization quantity. If the nominal machine current deviates from the nominal
primary CT current, the temperature must be adapted according to the following
formula. At address 1605 or 1606 TEMP. RISE I the temperature adapted to the
nominal transformer current is set. This setting value is used as standardization

Unbalanced Load (Negative Sequence) Protection (ANSI 46)
General Unbalanced load protection detects unbalanced loads. The negative sequence
currents associated with unbalanced loads create reverse fields in three-phase
induction machines, which act on the rotor at double frequency. Eddy currents are
induced at the rotor surface, and local overheating of the rotor end zones and the slot
wedges begins to take place. Another effect of unbalanced loads is an overheating of
the damper winding. In addition, it may be used to detect interruptions, faults, and
polarity problems with current transformers. It is particularly useful in detecting phase-
to-ground, phase-to-phase, and double phase-to-ground faults with magnitudes lower
than the maximum load current.
Unbalanced Load The unbalanced load protection feature of the 7UM62 relay uses filtering to calculate
Determination the symmetrical components from the phase currents. It evaluates the negative-phase
sequence system, the negative phase-sequence current I2. If the negative phase-
sequence current exceeds a set threshold value, the trip timer starts. A trip command
is transmitted as soon as this trip time has expired.
Warning stage If the value of the continuously permissible, negative phase-sequence current I2> is
exceeded, a warning message ”I2> Warn” is transmitted after a selectable time T
WARN (see Figure 2-21).
Thermal The machine manufacturers indicate the permissible unbalanced load by means of the
Characteristic following formula:
The asymmetry factor depends on the machine and represents the time in seconds
during which the generator can be loaded with a 100 % unbalanced load. This factor
is typically in a range between 5 s and 30 s.
The heating up of the object to be protected is calculated in the relay as soon as the
I2> permissible unbalanced load is exceeded. The current-time-area is calculated
constantly to ensure a correct consideration of the changing load. The thermal
characteristic is tripped as soon as the current-time-area ((I2/IN)2 ⋅ t) has reached the
K asymmetry factor.
Limitation The model of the heating of the object to be protected is limited to a 200 % trip
temperature overrange.
Cool Down A settable cool-down time starts as soon as the value falls below the constantly
permissible unbalanced load I2>. The parameter T COOL DOWN is defined as the time
required by the thermal image to cool down from 100 % to 0 %. The cool-down time
depends on the construction type of the generator, and especially on the damper
winding. Preloading is taken into consideration when unbalanced loading occurs
during the cool-down period. The protective relay will thus trip in a shorter time.

Definite-Time High negative phase-sequence currents can only be caused by a two-pole power
Trip Stage system short circuit which must be covered in accordance with the network grading

Unbalanced Load (Negative Sequence) Protection (ANSI 46)
Logic Figure 2-22 shows the logic diagram of the unbalanced load protection. The protection
may be blocked via a binary input (”>BLOCK I2”). Pickups and time stages are reset
and the metered values in the thermal model are cleared. The binary input ”>RM
th.rep. I2” only serves to clear metered values of the thermal characteristic.
General The unbalance load protection is only effective and accessible if it was selected at
address0117 UNBALANCE LOAD = Enabled within the framework of project
configuration. Set Disabled if the function is not required.
The function can be switched ON or OFF at address 1701 UNBALANCE LOAD. As an
alternative, the user can only block the trip signal (Block Relay).
The maximum permissible, constant negative phase-sequence current is required by
the thermal model. For machines of up to 100 MVA with non-salient pole rotors, this
current typically amounts to a value in a range from 6 % to 8 %. With salient-pole
rotors, it is at least 12 % of the nominal machine current. For larger machines and in
cases of doubt, please observe the instructions of the machine manufacturer.
It is important to ensure that the values given by the manufacturer represent the
primary values of the machine. For example, if the long-time allowable thermal inverse
current —with respect to the nominal machine current — is given, this value must
be used to calculate the settings for the unbalanced load time-overcurrent element.
For the settings on the protective relay, this information is converted to the secondary
inverse current. For this situation

Time for Cool Down The parameter 1705 T COOL DOWN is defined as the time required by the thermal
image to cool down from 100 % to 0 %. If the machine manufacturer does not provide
this information, the setting value can be calculated by assuming an equal value for
the cool-down time and the heating time of the object to be protected. The formula

Definite-Time Asymmetrical system faults also cause high negative phase-sequence currents. A
Tripping definite-time negative phase-sequence current–stage 1706 I2>> can detect
Characteristic asymmetrical power system short circuits. A setting to about 60 % to 65 % ensures
that a trip is always performed according to the thermal characteristic in case of a
phase failure (unbalanced load always less than 100/√3 %, i.e. I2 < 58 %). On the
other hand, a two-pole short circuit can be supposed for an unbalanced load of more
than 60 % to 65 %. The delay time T I2>> (address 1707) must be coordinated with
the system grading of phase-to-phase short circuits.
Contrary to the time-overcurrent protection, the I2>> stage is able to detect fault
currents under nominal current. The following conditions are valid:
− A phase-to-phase fault (I) results in the following negative sequence current

Startup Overcurrent Protection (ANSI 51)
General Gas turbines can be started by means of a frequency starting converter. A switched-
mode converter feeds a current into the generator and creates a rotating field whose
frequency gradually increases. This causes the rotor to turn and thus to drive the tur-
bine. At approx. 70 % of the rated speed, the turbine is ignited and further accelerated
until it attains rated speed. The startup converter is switched off.
Figure 2-24 shows the characteristic quantities to be considered during startup.

Assuming that a short-circuit can occur in the generator during startup, a short-circuit
protection is necessary over the entire frequency range.
The 7UM62 offers for this a highly useful feature, namely its automatic adaption of the
sampling frequency to the current generator frequency, which ensures the same sen-
sitivity over the entire frequency range. This adaption starts at the transition from
10 Hz to 11 Hz. As a result, all short-circuit protection functions, such as overcurrent
protection (Sections 2.6 to 2.8), impedance protection (Section 2.17) and differential
protection (Section 2.12) are active with the same sensitivity as with nominal frequen-
cy.
The startup overcurrent protection is a short-circuit protection function that works be-
low 10 Hz. Its operating range is designed for 2 Hz to approx. 10 Hz (change to oper-
ational condition 1). At higher frequencies, the above short-circuit protection functions
are active.
7UM62 Manual 71
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
The function is also active above 70 Hz because at that frequency the protection is
again in operational condition 0.
Measuring At frequencies below 10 Hz, the protection works in operating condition 0, with the
Principle sampling frequency automatically set to nominal conditions (fS = 800 Hz for 50 Hz net-
works and 960 Hz for 60 Hz networks). From the sampled phase currents, a special
algorithm determines the peak values. These are converted into values proportional
to the r.m.s. values, and compared with the set threshold value.
Figure 2-25 shows the logic diagram.

Enabled at address 118 during configuration of the protection functions.
Address 1801 O/C STARTUP is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block
only the trip command (Block relay).
Pickup Value Figure 2-24 shows that the currents during startup amount to approx. 20 % of the nom-
inal currents. This allows to set the protection routinely to less than nominal current.
As can be seen in Figure 2-25, the function is blocked when the operating condition
changes from 0 to 1. Additionally, blocking by binary input should be provided for.
Figure 2-26 shows an example of the estimated short-circuit currents at different fre-
quencies. As the short-circuit currents can amount to a multiple of the nominal current,
the pickup value could also be set to more than the nominal current, i.e. around the
usual values between 1.2 and 1.4 I/ING.

nate the delay time with the network. Wherever possible, no delay time should be ef-
fective at all since the operating time of the protection function is extended proportion-
ally to the lower frequency (see Chapter 4, Technical Data).
Where a sensitive setting is selected, a delay time may be useful to avoid overfunc-
tioning. This delay time should be based on the lowest detectable frequency of 2 Hz,
and set to 0.5 s.

Differential Protection (ANSI 87G/87M/87T)
General The numerical current differential protection of the 7UM62 is a fast and selective short-
circuit protection for generators, motors and transformers. The individual application
can be configured, which ensures optimum matching to the protected object.
The protected zone is selectively limited by the CTs at its ends.
The processing of the measured values depends on the way the differential protection
is used. This section discusses first the differential protection function in general,
regardless of the type of protected object, for a single-phase system. It then deals with
the particularities of individual objects that can be protected.
Basic Principle Differential protection systems operate according to the principle of current
comparison (Kirchhoff’s current law). They utilize the fact that in a healthy protected
object the current leaving the object is the same as that which entered it (current Ip,
dotted in Figure 2-28).
Any measured current difference is a certain indication of a fault somewhere within the
protected zone. The secondary windings of current transformers CT1 and CT2, which
have the same transformation ratio, may be so connected that a closed circuit is
formed. If now a measuring element M is connected at the electrical balance point, it
reveals the current difference. Under healthy conditions (e.g. on-load operation) no
current flows in the measuring element. In the event of a fault in the protected object,
the summation current Ip1+Ip2flows on the primary side. The currents on the
secondary side, I1 and I2 flow through the measuring element M. as a summation
current I1+I2 (see Figure 2-28).

Current When an external fault causes a heavy current to flow through the protected zone,
Stabilization differences in the magnetic characteristics of the current transformers CT1 and CT2
under conditions of saturation may cause a significant current to flow through the
element M. If the magnitude of this current lies above the response threshold, the
element would issue a trip signal. To prevent the protection from such erroneous
operation, a stabilizing current is brought in.

The stabilizing quantity is derived from the arithmetical sum of the absolute values of
|I1| + |I2|. The following definitions apply:
The differential current
Idiff = |I1 + I2|
and the stabilization or restraining current
Istab = |I1| + |I2|
Idiff is derived from the fundamental frequency current and produces the tripping effect
quantity, Istab counteracts this effect.
To clarify the situation, three important operating conditions with ideal and matched
measurement qualities should be examined:

CT1 CT2

This result shows that for internal fault and under ideal conditions Idiff = Istab.
Consequently, the characteristic of internal faults is a straight line with a upward slope
of 45° (dot-and-dash line in Figure 2-30).
The currents Idiff and Istab are compared by the differential protection with the

Values of Measured regardless of what that object is. As a result, all currents are referred to the protected
Quantities object. To match the currents, the characteristic values of the protected object
(apparent power, rated voltage) and the rated primary currents of the CTs are entered

Measured the definition of the measured current and the limits of the protected zone.
Quantities
Since the current direction is normally defined as positive in the direction of the
protected object, the definitions as illustrated in Figure 2-31 result. The protected zone
is limited by the CTs in the neutral point of generator and the CTs at the terminal side.
The differential protection feature of the 7UM62 refers all currents to the rated current
of the protected object. The characteristic values of the protected object (apparent
power, rated voltage) and the primary rated currents of the CTs are entered in the
protective device for each side of the protected object. The measured quantity
matching is thus limited to the factors for the absolute current values.

Differential Protection (ANSI 87G/87M/87T)
Mismatching of Differences in the matching of CTs to the transformer rated current are not
CTs uncommon. These differences result in an error that leads to a differential current.
Voltage Control by Voltage control tap changers (usually in-phase regulators) change the transformation
Tap Changers ratio and the rated current of the transformer. They cause mismatching of the CTs and
thus a differential current.
Inrush Current Transformers may absorb on power-up considerable magnetizing currents (inrush
currents) that enter the protected zone but do not leave it. They act therefore like fault
currents entering on one side.
The inrush current can amount to a multiple of the rated current and is characterized
by a considerable 2nd harmonic content (double rated frequency) which is practically
absent in the case of a short-circuit.
Vector Group Depending on their application, transformers have different vector groups, which
cause a shift of the phase angles between the primary and the secondary side.
Without adequate correction, this phase shift would cause a differential current.
The following paragraphs describe the main functional blocks of the differential
protection that allow to control the above influences.
Matching the The digitized currents are matched the transformer rated current. The characteristic
Values of Measured values of the transformer, i.e. rated apparent power, rated voltages and primary rated
Quantities CT currents, are entered in the protective device, and a correction factor kCT is
calculated according to the following formula:
I p, CT I p, CT ⋅ 3 ⋅ U N
k CT = --------------- = --------------------------------------
I N,Obj. SN
where
Ip, CT - Primary rated CT current
IN,Obj. - Primary rated current of protected object
SN - Rated apparent power of protected object
UN - Rated voltage
kCT - Correction factor
This correction is performed for each side of the protected object.
Once the vector group has been entered, the protective device is capable of
performing the current comparison according to fixed formulae.
Vector Group Unit transformers often have a wye-delta connection, with the delta connection being
Matching on the generator side. To allow a maximum of versatility in the use of the 7UM62, all
imaginable vector group combinations have been provided for in the software. The
following paragraph explains the basic principle of numerical vector group correction
in an exemplary way for a Y(N)d5 transformer.

The higher voltage side has a wye connection and the lower voltage side a delta
connection. The phase rotation is n ⋅ 30° (i.e. 5 ⋅ 30° = 150°). Side 1 (higher voltage
side) is the reference system. The vector group correction feature transforms the
currents flowing from side 2 to side 1.

The zero sequence currents are eliminated in this case. In Figure 2-34 on the right
side, the zero sequence currents are automatically eliminated by the current
difference formation, just as in the transformer there can be no zero sequence
currents outside the delta winding. On the left-hand side, the elimination of the zero
sequence current results from the matrix equation, e.g.

The 7UM62 performs the above calculations (matching of absolute values, vector
group matching in the case of transformers) at every sampling and derives from them
the instantaneous values of differential and stabilizing current. From the differential
current, the fundamental component is determined by means of a Fourier filter, which
provides for effective damping of any interference and aperiodic DC components.
7UM62 Manual 81
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
The stabilizing quantity is calculated from the arithmetic average of a rectified quantity,
so that the filter effect is less for it. As a result, the stabilization component in
interference components, especially aperiodic DC components, will be higher than
their differential current.
Tripping This result shows that for an internal fault Idiff = Istab. Thus the characteristic of internal
Characteristic faults in the tripping diagram (see Figure 2-36) is a straight line with a slope of 45°.
Figure 2-36 shows the complete operation characteristic of the 7UM62. Branch a
represents the sensitivity threshold of the differential protection (setting
I-DIFF>) and considers constant error currents such as magnetizing currents.
Branch b considers current-proportional errors which may result from transformation
errors of the main CTs or the input CTs of the relay, or which may be caused by
mismatching or by the influence of tap changers in transformers with voltage control.
In the range of high currents which may give rise to current transformer saturation,
branch c provides for additional stabilization.
In the presence of differential currents above branch d a trip command is issued
regardless of the stabilizing current and the harmonic stabilization. This is the
operating range of the ”High-Speed Trip Stage IDiff >>”.

High-Speed Trip The high-speed trip stage IDiff >> clears high-current internal faults instantaneously.
Stage IDiff >> As soon as the differential current rises above the threshold IDiff >> (branch d), a trip
signal is issued regardless of the magnitude of the stabilizing current.
This stage can operate even when, for example, a considerable second harmonic is
present in the differential current, which is caused by current transformer saturation by
a DC component in the short-circuit current, and which could be interpreted by the
inrush stabilization function as an inrush current.
This high-current stage evaluates the fundamental component of the differential
current as well as the instantaneous values. Instantaneous value processing ensures
fast tripping even in case the fundamental component of the current is strongly
reduced by current transformer saturation.
High-current faults in the protected transformer may be cleared instantaneously
without regard of the magnitude of the stabilizing currents when the amplitude of the
differential currents can exclude that it is an external fault. This is always the case
when the short-circuit current is higher than 1/usc ⋅ IN Transf.

Figure 2-37 Operation Characteristics of the Differential Protection with Fault Characteristic
The 7UM62 provides a saturation indicator which detects such phenomena and
initiates add-on stabilization measures. The saturation indicator evaluates the
dynamic behaviour of the differential and stabilizing current.
The dotted line in Figure 2-37 shows the instantaneous development of currents in
case of a external fault with transformer saturation on one side.
7UM62 Manual 83
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
Immediately after the fault (A), the short-circuit currents rise strongly, causing a
equally high stabilizing current (2xthrough-flowing current). Saturation occurring on
one side (B) now causes a differential current and reduces the stabilizing current, so
that the operating point Idiff/Istab may move into the tripping area (C).
In contrast, the operating point moves immediately along the fault characteristic (D)
when an internal fault occurs since the stabilization current will barely be higher than
the differential current. Therefore, an internal fault is assumed as soon as the ratio Idiff/
Istab has exceeded an internal threshold for a fixed minimum time.
Current transformer saturation in case of an external fault is thus characterized by a
high stabilizing current flowing at the beginning, i.e. by the operating point (diagram
see Figure 2-37) moving into an area that is typical for a high-current external fault
(”add-on stabilization). The add-on stabilization area is limited by the parameter I-
ADD ON STAB. and the first straight line of the characteristic (with BASE POINT 1
and SLOPE 1) (see Figure 2-38). The saturation indicator makes its decision within
the first quarter of a period after fault inception. When an external fault is detected, the
differential protection is blocked for a selectable time. The blocking is cancelled as
soon as the operating point Idiff/Istab moves steadily (i.e. over 2 periods) within the
tripping area. This allows to detect evolving faults in the protected area reliably even
during an external fault with current transformer saturation.

Differential Protection (ANSI 87G/87M/87T)
Besides the second harmonic, another harmonic can be selected in the 7UM62 to
cause blocking. A choice can be made between the third and fifth harmonic as
harmonic stabilization.
Steady-state overexcitation of the transformer is characterized by odd harmonic
content. The third or fifth harmonic is suitable to provide stabilization. But, as the third
harmonic is often eliminated in power transformers (e.g. by the delta winding), the use
of the fifth is more common.
Converter transformers also produce odd harmonic content which is practically absent
in the case of internal short-circuits.
The differential currents are analyzed with regard to their harmonics content.
Numerical filters are used to perform a Fourier analysis of the differential current. As
soon as the harmonics content exceeds the set thresholds, a stabilization of the
respective phase evaluation is started. The filter algorithms are optimized with regard
to their transient behaviour such that additional measures for stabilization during
dynamic conditions are not necessary.
The harmonic stabilization is maintained for two periods after decrease of the
differential current. This prevents an unwanted under-stabilization when external
faults are cleared and the higher-order harmonics disappear.
Since the inrush stabilization operates individually per phase, the protection is fully
operative even when the transformer is switched onto a single-phase fault, while
inrush currents may possibly be present in one of the healthy phases.
In ”modern type” transformers in particular, the 2nd harmonics content may not
exceed the threshold value in all three phases on switch-on. To avoid spurious
tripping, the so-called “crossblock” function must be activated. As soon as an inrush
current is detected in one phase, the other phases of the differential protection stage
IDIFF> are blocked.
The cross-block function can be limited to a selectable duration. After this cross-block
time has elapsed, no more cross-block is possible for as long as a running fault
7UM62 Manual 85
C53000-G1176-C149-3
Functions
condition lasts, i.e. cross-blocking is possible only once after a fault has occurred, and
only for the set cross-block time.
The further harmonic stabilizations operate individually per phase. However, it is also
possible – as it is for the inrush stabilization – to set the protection such that not only
the phase with harmonics content in excess to the permissible value is stabilized but
also the other phases of the differential stage I-DIFF> are blocked. The cross-block
feature with 3rd or 5th harmonics works in the same way as with 2nd harmonics.
Increase of Pickup An increase of the pickup value on startup provides additional security against
Value on Startup overfunctioning when a non-energized protection object is switched in. As soon as the
stabilizing current of one phase has dropped below a settable value I-REST.
STARTUP, the increase of the pickup value is activated for the I-DIFF> stage. As the
stabilizing current is twice the through-flowing current in normal operation, its dropping
below that threshold is a criterion for detecting that the protected object is not
energized. The pickup value I–DIFF is now increased by a settable factor (see Figure
2-40); the other branches of the Idiff> stage are shifted proportionally.
This is done by dividing the DIFF current of the respective phase by the factor START-
FACTOR before the characteristic monitoring. The differential current for fault
recording, tripping current etc. is not affected by this.
The return of the stabilizing current indicates the startup. After a settable time T
START MAX the increase of the characteristic is cancelled.

Pickup, Dropout The differential protection does not normally use a ”pickup”, since the detection of a
fault is identical with the tripping condition. Like all SIPROTEC® devices, however, the
differential protection feature of the 7UM62 has a pickup that is the starting point for a
number of ulterior activities. The pickup marks the inception of a fault. This is
necessary e.g. for creating fault events and fault records. The pickup also controls
internal functions for both internal and external faults (such as necessary actions of
the saturation indicator).
A pickup is detected as soon as the fundamental wave of the differential current has
attained 85 % of the setting value I-DIFF> or more than 85 % of the stabilizing cur-
rent are in the add-on stabilization area (see Figure 2-41). A pickup signal is also is-
sued when the high-speed trip stage for high-current faults picks up.

Differential Protection (ANSI 87G/87M/87T)
General The differential protection is only effective and accessible if the type of protected
object for this function was set within the framework of the protective function
configuration (Section 2.2, address 0120, DIFF. PROT. = Generator/Motor or
Three-phase trans.). Only the relevant parameters for that object are offered, all
others are hidden. Disabled is set if the function is not required. At the address
2001 DIFF. PROT. the user can switch the function ON or OFF, or only block the trip
command (Block Relay).
Note:
When the device is delivered, the differential protection function is switched OFF. This
is because this protection function must not be used before at least the vector groups
and matching values have been correctly set. Without these settings the device may
show unpredictable behaviour (e.g. tripping)!
The primary rated current Ip, CT of the used CTs should normally be higher than the
rated current IN, Object of the object to be protected. However, at least the following
condition should be observed with regard to the upper limit of the linear zone of the
7UM62, which is 20 ⋅ ΙN:
Precondition A precondition for the functioning of the generator or motor differential protection is
that during configuration at the address 0120 DIFF. PROT. = Generator/Motor
has been set.
One important setting is the location of the CT starpoints on both sides of the protected
object (addresses 0201 STRPNT->OBJ S1 for side 1 and 0210 STRPNT->OBJ S2
for side 2, see Section 2.3).
Also, the nominal values (SN GEN/MOTOR, UN GEN/MOTOR) of the machine to be
protected, and the primary and secondary nominal currents of the main CTs on both
sides must be entered. The settings are referred to these values. They are also used
e.g. for determining the primary measured values.
Information as to the treatment of the starpoint on both sides is required for the
measured value monitoring; it has already been entered during configuration at the
addresses 0241 STARPNT SIDE 1 and 0244 STARPNT SIDE 2 (see Section 2.3.2).
Increase of Pickup For additional security against overfunctioning when a non-energized protection
Value on Startup object is switched in, an increase of the pickup value on startup can be set at address
2005 INC.CHAR.START. On delivery of the device, this function is switched OFF.
The associated parameters can be found at addresses 2051A, 2052A and 2053.
Address 2051A I-REST. STARTUP is used to set the pickup value for startup
detection. The function is disabled by setting I/InO = 0. The START-FACTOR specifies
the increase factor of the pickup values on startup. For generator and motor
protection, a setting of 2052A START-FACTOR = 2.0 is recommended.

Tripping The parameters for the tripping characteristic are set at the addresses 2021 through
Characteristic 2044A. The meaning of the parameters is shown in Figure 2-43. The numerical values
at the branches are the parameter addresses.
Address 2021 I-DIFF> is the pickup value for the differential current. The pickup value
is referred to the nominal current of the generator or motor. For generators and
motors, a setting between 0.1 and 0.2 is recommended.
In addition to the pickup threshold I-DIFF>, a second pickup threshold is considered.
When this threshold (2031 I-DIFF>>) is exceeded, a trip signal is issued regardless
of the magnitude of the stabilizing current (non-stabilized high-speed tripping). This
stage must be set higher than I-DIFF>. Recommendation: Set a value above the
steady-state value of the transient short-circuit current, i.e.:.

With values for xd’ between 0.15 and 0.35, the resulting setting values for IDIFF>> are
approx. (3 to 7) ⋅ IN, Generator.
The tripping characteristic has two more branches (Figure 2-43). Address 2041A
SLOPE 1 determines the slope of the first branch, whose starting point is specified in
the parameter 2042A BASE POINT 1. This branch considers current-proportional
error currents. These are mainly transformation errors of the main CTs and of the input
CTs. If the CTs are identical, the default setting of 0.25 can be reduced to 0.15.
The second branch produces a higher stabilization in the range of high currents which
may lead to current transformer saturation. Its base point is set at address 2044A
BASE POINT 2. The slope is set at address 2043A SLOPE 2. The stability of the
relay during current transformer saturation can be influenced by this parameter. A
higher slope results in a higher stability. The default setting of 0.5 has proven to be a
good value.

All setting times are additional time delays which do not include the operating times
(measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective function.
Precondition A precondition for the operation of the transformer differential protection is that during
configuration address 0120 DIFF. PROT. was set to = Three-phase transf..
To ensure the correct polarity for the formation of the differential current, the polarity
of the sets of CTs must be specified. This has been done during the configuration,
when entering the location of the starpoints of the sets of CTs on both sides of the
transformer at addresses 0201 STRPNT->OBJ S1 for side 1 and 0210 STRPNT-
>OBJ S2 for side 2, see Section 2.3).
Also, the nominal data (SN TRANSF, UN WIND S1, UN WIND S2) of both sides of the
transformer, as well as the primary and secondary rated currents of the main CTs on
both sides were requested. The settings are referred to these values. They are also
used e.g. for determining the primary measured values.
Information as to the treatment of the starpoint on both sides is required for the
elimination of the zero sequence current and for the measured value monitoring
(summation current monitoring); it has already been entered during configuration at
the 0241 STARPNT SIDE 1 and 0244 STARPNT SIDE 2 (see Section 2.3.2).
Matching of When used as transformer protection, the 7UM62 automatically computes from the
Absolute Values rated data of the protected transformer the current-matching formulae which are
and Vector Group required to match the vector group and the different rated winding currents. The
Matching currents are converted such that the sensitivity of the protection always refers to the
power rating of the transformer. Therefore, no circuitry is required for matching of the
vector group and no manual calculations for converting of rated currents are normally
necessary.
The unit requires the following data for each winding
− MVA rating (apparent power) SN in MVA (see above),
− Rated voltage UN in kV (see above)
− Vector group numeral

Functions
Zero Sequence The treatment of the winding starpoint is of no concern if the zero sequence currents
Current are eliminated from the phase currents. Because of the zero sequence current
Treatment elimination, fault currents which flow through the CTs during earth faults in the network
if there is an earthing point in the protected zone (transformer starpoint or starpoint
earthing transformer) are neutralized without any special measures from outside. The
elimination of the zero sequence currents is selected by setting STARPNT SIDE* =
earthed (see Figure 2-34).
In networks with isolated or arc compensated starpoint, the elimination of the zero
sequence current may be set ineffective provided that the starpoint of the protected
transformer winding has no connection to earth, not even via a Petersen coil or a surge
arrester. In this case, each double earth fault with one base point in the protected zone
will be cleared by the relay, regardless of any double earth fault priority (see side title
”Isolated Starpoint” and Figure 2-33).
Increase of Pickup For additional security against overfunctioning when a non-energized protection
Value on Startup object is switched in, an increase of the pickup value on startup can be set at address
2005 INC.CHAR.START. As this option is mainly provided for generator and motor
protection, the default setting is OFF if a 2-winding transformer has been selected as
protected object.
The associated parameters can be found at addresses 2051A, 2052A and 2053.
Address 2051A I-REST. STARTUP is used to set the pickup value for detecting a
startup. The function is disabled by setting I/InO = 0. The START-FACTOR specifies the
increase factor of the pickup values on startup. For transformer protection, a setting of
2052A START-FACTOR = 1.0 is recommended. For switching of external loads such
as motors or transformers, it should be increased to 2.0. Due to the high time
constants, branch b of the characteristic may well be exceeded for a short time.
Harmonic Restraint The inrush restraint of the device can be activated and deactivated at address 2006
INRUSH 2.HARM.. It is based on an evaluation of the 2nd harmonics present in the
inrush current. When the device is delivered from the factory, a ratio I2fN/IfN of 15 % is
set and can normally be maintained. However, the component required for restraint
can be parameterized. To provide for more restraint in exceptional cases, where
switch-on conditions are particularly unfavourable, a smaller value can be set at
address 2061 2. HARMONIC.

Differential Protection (ANSI 87G/87M/87T)
Cross-Blocking The inrush restraint can be extended by the so-called ”cross-block” function. This
means that not only the phase with inrush current exhibiting harmonics content in
excess of the permissible value is stabilized but also the other phases of the
differential stage IDIFF> are blocked. The duration for which the cross-block function
is operative after the differential current threshold has been exceeded is set at address
2062A CROSSB. 2. HARM. Setting is in multiples of one cycle. Setting to 0 means
that the protection can initiate a tripping when the transformer is switched onto a
single-phase fault, even if an inrush current is flowing in another phase. When set to
∞, the cross-block function is always effective. The duration of the blocking is specified
during commissioning. The default setting of 3 cycles has proven to be a good value.
Besides the second harmonic, the 7UM62 can provide restraint with a further
harmonic. Address 2007 RESTR. n.HARM. is used to disable this harmonics
restraint, or to select the harmonic for it. The 3rd or the 5th harmonic are available.
Steady-state overexcitation of the transformer is characterized by odd harmonics
content. The third or fifth harmonic is suitable to provide stabilization. As the third
harmonic is often eliminated in transformers (e.g. in a delta winding), the fifth harmonic
is more commonly used.
Converter transformers also produce a content of odd harmonics which is practically
absent in the case of internal short-circuits.
The harmonic content which blocks the differential protection is set at address 2071
n. HARMONIC. For example, if the 5th harmonic stabilization is used to avoid trip
during overexcitation, 30 % (default setting) are convenient.
Nth harmonic restraint operates individually per phase. However, it is also possible –
as it is for the inrush restraint – to set the protection such that not only the phase with
harmonics content in excess of the permissible value is stabilized but also the other
phases of the differential stage > are blocked (”cross-block” function). The duration for
which the cross-block function is operative after the differential current threshold has
been exceeded is set at address 2072A CROSSB. n.HARM. Setting is in multiples of
one cycle. Setting to 0 (default setting) means that the protection can initiate a tripping
when the transformer is switched onto a single-phase fault, even if a high harmonics
content is present in another phase. When set to ∞, the cross-block function is always
effective.
If the differential current exceeds a multiple of the rated transformer current stated at
address 2073A IDIFFmax n.HM, no nth harmonic restraint takes place.
Tripping The parameters of the tripping characteristic are set at addresses 2021 to 2044A.
Characteristic Figure 2-44 illustrates the meaning of the different parameters. The numerical values
at the branches are the parameter addresses.
Address 2021 I-DIFF> is the pickup value for the differential current. This is the total
fault current, regardless of the way it is divided between the windings of the protected
transformer. The pickup value is referred to the rated current corresponding to the
rated apparent power. For transformers, the setting should be between 0.2 and 0.4.
It should be checked during commissioning that the selected pickup value is at least
twice the maximum differential current present in steady-state operation.
In addition to the pickup threshold I-DIFF>, the differential current is subjected to a
second pickup threshold. If this threshold (2031 I-DIFF>>) is exceeded, tripping is
initiated regardless of the magnitude of the restraint current (unstabilized high-speed
trip stage). This stage must be set higher than the I-DIFF> stage. As a guide: above

after leaving the add-on stabilization area in case of high-current external faults. The
setting depends, for instance, on the disconnecting time of the upstream protection.

Time Delays In special cases it may be advantageous to delay the trip signal of the differential
protection with an additional time stage. The time delay 2026 T I-DIFF> is started

General The earth current differential protection detects earth faults in generators and trans-
formers with a low-ohmic or solid starpoint earthing. It is selective, and more sensitive
than the classical differential protection (see Section 2.12).
A typical application of this protection function are configurations where multiple gen-
erators are connected to one busbar and one generator has a low-ohmic earthing. An-
other application would be transformer windings in wye connection.
For applications such as auto-transformers, starpoint earthing transformers and shunt
reactors, Siemens recommends to use the 7UT612 protective relay instead.
For high-ohmic earthing of generators, the earth fault protection function (Section
2.26) is used.
Figure 2-45 shows two typical implementations. In connection scheme 1, the zero se-
quence current is calculated from the measured phase currents, whereas the starpoint
current is measured directly. This application is the version for transformers and for
the generator with direct (low-ohmic) earthing.
In connection scheme 2, both zero sequence currents are calculated from the mea-
sured phase currents. The protected object is located between the current transform-
ers. This measuring method should be used for generators in busbar connection,
where multiple generators feed the busbar and any one of the generators is earthed.

Measuring As can be seen in Figure 2-45, there are 2 possible implementations of the earth fault
Principle differential protection which differ only in their method of determining the zero se-
quence current. This is shown in Figure 2-46, along with the definition of the current
direction. The general definition is: Reference arrows run in positive direction to the
protected object.

In both measuring principles, there is a vector addition of the phase currents on the
line side (always side 1 in the 7UM62), which yields the zero sequence current. The
rule of calculation for side 1 is:
3I01 = IL1S1 + IL2S1 + IL3S1
For the second zero sequence current, two methods of determination are possible:
Method 1 is to measure it directly as the starpoint current at input IEE2 (ISt = IEE2).
Method 2 is to calculate the zero sequence current from the CTs on the starpoint side
(always side 2 in the 7UM62). The pertinent formulae are:
3I02 = ISt = IEE2
or
3I02 = IL1S2 + IL2S2 + IL3S2
When an earth fault occurs in the protected zone (Figure 2-46 fault location 1), there
is always a starpoint current ISt or zero sequence current flowing through the CTs of
side 2 (3I02). Depending on the network earthing conditions, there may also be an
earthing current (3I01) flowing through the CTs of side 1 to the fault location (dashed
arrow). Due to the definition of the current direction, however, the zero sequence cur-
rent 3I01 is more or less in phase with the starpoint current.
When an earth fault occurs outside the protected zone (Figure 2-47 fault location 2),
there is also a starpoint current ISt or zero sequence current flowing through the CTs
of side 2 (3I02), as well as a zero sequence current flowing through the CTs of side 1
(3I01). The zero sequence current must be the same at all three possible measure-
ment locations. As the current flowing into the protected object is defined as positive,
the zero sequence current flowing on side 1 (3I01) is in phase opposition to the star-
point current ISt or to the calculated zero phase current of side 2 (3I02).

Functions
When an external non-earthed fault causes a heavy current to flow through the pro-
tected zone, differences in the magnetic characteristics of the phase current trans-
formers under conditions of saturation may cause a significant summation current
which may simulate an earth current flowing into the protected zone. Measures must
be taken to prevent this current from causing a trip. The same may happen if, for ex-
ample, significant loads with a high inductive component (and thus high time con-
stants), such as motors or transformers, are switched on.
The earth current differential protection provides a number of restraint features which
differ significantly from conventional restraint methods (see margin heading „Restrain-
ing Measures“).
Evaluation of The earth current differential protection compares the fundamental wave of the zero
Measured currents on both sides (3I01 and 3I02) and calculates from them the differential and the
Quantities restraint current.
I0-Diff = | 3I01 + 3I02 |
I0-Res = | 3I01 | + | 3I02 |
Depending on the application, the current 3I02 may be the calculated zero sequence
current of side 2 or the directly measured starpoint current ISt.
Under no-fault conditions, and with ideal CTs, the zero sequence currents would be
zero, and consequently the differential and the restraint current would be zero as well.
To eliminate the influence of CT errors, the restraint is determined by the characteristic
(see Figure 2-48).
In case of an external earth fault, the differential current is zero or small, and the re-
straint current is twice the fault current. The measured quantities are inside the re-
straint zone. An internal earth fault, on the other hand, causes a fairly equal differential
and restraint current, which are both in the trip zone (along the dashed line).
The pickup threshold is set with the I-REF> stage.

In applications with direct measurement of the starpoint current (e.g. earth current dif-
ferential protection for transformers), the starpoint current is queried to the evaluation
of the characteristics. This provides additional restraint against CT problems such as
wrong zero sequence current modeling of the phase current transformers on side 1.
The starpoint current must also have exceeded the pickup current I-REF> (see the
logic diagram in Figure 2-50).
In order to compensate differences in the primary CT current ratings, the currents are
matched to the current ratings of the protected object.
Restraining The purpose of the earth current differential protection is the detection of low-current
Measures faults. This implies a sensitive setting. A significant source of errors of the protection
function are differences in the transient magnetic characteristics of the phase CTs.
Factors to be considered here are different DC transformation characteristics and the
behaviour under conditions of saturation.
Spurious tripping of the protection in the presence of external earth faults must be
avoided.
One elementary rule for this is the use of phase current transformers that are balanced
to one another, so that their CT error (resulting zero sequence current) under steady-
state conditions is minimized.
Further restraining measures include:
• Additional evaluation of the starpoint current (see above)
Only in the presence of an earth fault can a current flow through the starpoint CTs.
This helps to avoid under no-fault conditions spurious tripping due to transformation
errors of the phase current transformers. This measure is also effective for faults
without earth involvement. A prerequisite for using this measure is the presence of
a starpoint CT in the application. It cannot be used for most generators in busbar
connection.
• Evaluation of the zero sequence current direction
This monitoring functions aims at preventing spurious tripping in the presence of ex-
ternal earth faults. It does so by evaluation of the zero sequence current direction.
Under ideal conditions, the currents are defined to be in phase in the presence of
an internal earth fault, and in phase opposition in the presence of an external earth
fault. The threshold angle is 90°. Figure 2-49 shows that monitoring is divided into
2 zones. Where fault conditions are unambiguous, tripping is immediately released
(zone I) or blocked (zone III). In zone II, an additional measurement is performed
before a decision is taken. Where the zero phase currents are too small (zone IV),
the direction criterion is ineffective, and 0° is assumed.

Logic The logic interconnection of all signals and the most important settings, as well as the
indications output, are shown in Figure 2-50. The function can be blocked with the in-
put “>BLOCK REF”. This input also allows to block other features using the CFC, for
instance if the measured zero voltage is to be injected via the UE input. This is neces-
sary if the voltage inputs are connected to a voltage transformer in V connection (open
delta connection).
Figure 2-50 shows the blocking of the phase currents and their release on the basis
of the calculated zero voltage. This is followed by the monitoring of the operating char-
acteristic with possibly an additional query of the starpoint current, and the angle re-
lease. When all conditions are met, the earth current differential protection picks up.
The subsequent timer T I-REF> is usually set to zero.

General A precondition for the operation of the earth current differential protection is that during
the configuration of the scope of functions (Section 2.2) the correct selection for the
application in hand has been made at address “0121 REF PROT.”. If the protected
object is a generator, the user can select either direct measurement of the starpoint
current via IEE2 (Gen. with IEE2), or current calculation (Gen. w. 3I0-S2). For
transformers, the method used is always direct measurement of the zero sequence
current, but the user can choose the allocation of sides (Transformer S1 or
Transformer S2).
A number of parameter settings must be made in Power System Data 1. They are re-
quired for normalization and for the definition of the current direction (see also Sec-
tions 2.3 and 2.12). If the IEE2 input is used, the protection device must be told the
neutral transformer transformation ratio (prim./sec.) and the terminal of the earthing-
side CT to which the IEE2 input is connected (see comments in Section 2.3).
Note:
When using the IEE2 input, it must be kept in mind that this is a sensitive current input.
The current amplitude is limited to approx. √2 1.6 A.
The neutral transformer should have a rated secondary current of 1 A. Where a 5 A
transformer is used, a commensurately higher transformation ratio must be chosen
(preferably factor 5).
Address 2101 REF PROT. is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only
the trip command (Block relay).
Note:
When the device is delivered, the earth current differential protection is set to OFF.
This is because this protection must not be used before at least the allocation and po-
larity of the CTs have been correctly set. Without these settings, the device may show
unpredictable behaviour (including spurious tripping)!
Pickup Values The sensitivity of the protection is determined by the setting of I-REF> (address
2110). This is the earth fault current flowing in from the starpoint of the protected ob-
ject (transformer, generator), and in some cases also from the network. This value
should be chosen on the basis of the most unfavourable case, i.e. fault currents enter-
ing from one side only. The current set refers to the nominal current of the protected
object or the protected side. The limit of sensitivity will in most cases be defined by the
CTs. A setting between 0.1 and 0.15 I/InO is a good value.
For the operating characteristic, the default settings can be used. If necessary, these
settings can be changed with the DIGSI communication software. The advanced pa-
rameters define the slope (2113A SLOPE) and the base point (2114A BASE POINT)
of the characteristic.
To stabilize the protection function, address 2102 can be set to blocking by the phase
current (REF I> BLOCK). As a rule of thumb, the pickup value should never be more
than twice the nominal current. With low-ohmic starpoint earthing, the formula is: nom-
inal current + earth current resulting from the starpoint resistance.
The zero voltage release depends on the operating range of the protection function.
95 % of a generator stator winding is a good value. Therefore, the secondary-side val-
ue has been set to 5.0 V (2103 REF U0>RELEASE). Where the zero voltage release
is not used, it must be set to 0.0 V.
Note:
For the protection function, the zero voltage calculated from the phase-to-earth volt-
ages has been multiplied with √3, which corresponds to the voltage present in a bro-
ken delta winding.
No settings need to be made for the angle release and the additional evaluation of the
directly measured starpoint current (where used).
For special applications, it may be advantageous to delay the trip command of the pro-
tection. This can be done by setting an additional delay time (address 2112 T I-
REF>). This delay time is normally set to 0. A minimum trip command duration has
been set for all protection functions in common (see Section 2.3.2 under “Trip Com-
mand Duration”).

Underexcitation In order to detect underexcitation, the unit processes all three terminal phase currents
Determination and all three terminal voltages to form the stator circuit criterion. It also processes the
excitation voltage and/or the signal from an external excitation voltage monitor to form
the rotor circuit criterion.
For the stator circuit criterion, the reciprocal of the impedance (equal the admittance)
is calculated from the positive sequence system of the currents and voltages. In the
admittance plane, the stability limit of the machine is independent of the voltage: thus,
the protection characteristic can be optimally matched to the stability characteristic of
the machine. By evaluating the positive sequence system, underexcitation conditions
are reliably detected even during asymmetrical faults within or outside of the machine.
Characteristics Figure 2-51 shows the loading diagram of the synchronous generator in the admit-
tance plane (P/U2; Q/–U2) with the steady-state stability limit which intersects the re-
active axis in close proximity to 1/Xd (reciprocal value of the synchronous direct reac-
tance).

A further characteristic (1/xd CHAR.3 /α3 can be matched to the dynamic stability
characteristic of the synchronous machine. Since stable operation is impossible if this
characteristic is exceeded, immediate tripping is required in this case (T CHAR 3 time
stage).
Excitation Voltage In case of a faulty voltage regulator or a failure of the excitation voltage, it is possible
Request to switch up with a short delay (time stage T SHRT Uex<, e.g. 1.5 s). To do so, the
device must either be informed via a binary input of the excitation voltage failure, or
the excitation voltage must be fed in via measuring transducer TD3 and a voltage
divider, provided that at address 3012 EXCIT. VOLT. the excitation voltage request
via measuring transducer has been switched ON.
As soon as the excitation voltage drops below a settable minimum 3013 Uexcit. <,
short-time tripping is initiated.
Instead of the excitation voltage detection, or even in addition to it, the signal of an
external excitation voltage monitoring feature can be fed in via a binary input. Here
again, high-speed tripping is initiated as soon as a failure of the excitation voltage is
signalled.
Low-Pass Filter As the excitation DC voltage may contain a large amount of superimposed harmonics
(e.g. owing to thyristor control), an analog low pass is provided on the C-I/O-6 board
in addition to the integrated digital filter. This low pass damps especially multiples of
the sampling frequency, which cannot be suppressed sufficiently by the digital filter.
The jumper settings for activating this filter are described in Section 3.1.3. When the
7UM62 is delivered from the factory, the filter is on. The jumper setting must match the
setting of the parameter 0297 TRANSDUCER 3 (see Power System Data, Section
2.3.2). If they do not match, an alarm is output, the device is reported faulty and not
operative.

Instead of 1/xd mach the approximate value IK0/IN can be used (with IK0 = short-circuit

Setting example:
Machine: UN mach = 6.3 kV
IN mach = SN/√3 UN = 5270 kVA/√3 ⋅ 6.3 kV = 483 A

Multiplied by a safety factor of about 1.05, the setting value 1/xd CHAR. 1 at address
3002 results.
For α1, the angle of the underexcitation limiting of the voltage regulator is selected or
the inclination angle of the machine stability characteristic is used. The setting value
ANGLE 1 is typically situated between 60 ° and 80 °.
In most cases, the machine manufacturer prescribes a minimum excitation value for
small active powers. For this purpose, characteristic 1 is cut from characteristic 2 in
case of a low active-power load. Consequently, 1/xd CHAR. 2 is set to about 0.9 ⋅
(1/xd CHAR. 1), the ANGLE 2 to 90 °. The kinked tripping limit according to figure
2-54 (CHAR. 1, CHAR. 2) results in this way, if the corresponding time delays T
CHAR. 1 and T CHAR. 2 of both characteristics are set equally.
Characteristic 3 serves to adapt the protection to the dynamic machine stability limits.
If there are no precise indications, the user must select a value 1/xd CHAR. 3
situated approximately between the synchronous direct reactance xd and the transient
reactance xd'. However, it should be greater than 1.
A value between 80 ° and 110 ° is usually selected for the corresponding ANGLE 3,
which ensures that only a dynamic instability can lead to a pickup with characteristic
3. The associated time delay is set at address 3010 T CHAR 3 to the value suggested
in Table 2-6.

Time Delays If the static limit curve consisting of the characteristics 1 and 2 is exceeded, the voltage
regulator must first have the opportunity of enhancing the excitation. For this reason,
a warning message due to this criterion is ”long-time” delayed (at least 10 s for 3004
T CHAR. 1 and 3007 T CHAR. 2).
If the excitation voltage is missing or too low, the stator criterion picks up as well,
provided that the excitation voltage request feature has been switched ON at address
3012 EXCIT. VOLT., and the voltage has dropped below the threshold Uexcit. <
set at address 3013, or the absence of the excitation voltage has been signalled to
the device by a binary input. In all these cases tripping is possible with a short delay.
This feature is set at address 3011 T SHRT Uex<. The following messages and trip
commands are typically assigned:
Note: If very short time delays are selected, dynamic balancing procedures may cause
unwanted operations. For this reason, it is recommended to set time values of 0.05 s
or higher.
Excitation Voltage The excitation voltage monitoring feature is set to approx. 50 % of the no-load excita-
Request tion voltage. If the generator is used for phase-shifting, an even lower threshold must
be chosen, depending on the application in had. It should also be noted that normally
a voltage divider is connected between the device and the excitation voltage.

General Reverse power protection is used to protect a turbo-generator unit in case of failure of
energy to the prime mover. In this case the synchronous generator runs as a motor
and drives the turbine, taking the required motoring energy from the network. This
condition leads to overheating of the turbine blades and must be interrupted within a
short time by tripping the network circuit-breaker. For the generator, there is the
additional risk that in case of a malfunctioning residual steam pass (defective stop
valves) after the switching off of the circuit breakers, the turbine-generator-unit is
speeded up, thus reaching an overspeed. For this reason, the system isolation should
only be performed after the detection of active power input into the machine.
Reverse Power The reverse power protection of the7UM62 precisely calculates the active power from
Determination the symmetrical components of the fundamental waves of the voltages and currents
by averaging the values of the last 16 cycles. The evaluation of only the positive
phase-sequence systems makes the reverse power determination independent of
current and voltage asymmetries and corresponds to the actual load of the drive end.
The calculated active power value corresponds to the overall active power. By taking
the error angles of the instrument transformers into account, the active power
component is calculated even with very high apparent powers and low power factor
(cos ϕ). The correction is performed by a W0 constant correction angle (see section
2.3), determined during the commissioning of the protective relay in the system. The
correction angle is set at Power System Data 1 (see Section 2.3).
Pickup Seal-In Time To ensure that frequently occurring short pickups can cause tripping, it is possible to
perform a selectable prolongation of these pickup pulses at parameter 3105A T-
HOLD. Each positive edge of the pickup pulses triggers this time stage again. For a
sufficient number of pulses, the pickup signals adds up and become longer than the
time delay.
Trip Signal For bridging a perhaps short power input during synchronization or during power
swings caused by system faults, the trip command is delayed by a selectable time T-
SV-OPEN. In case of a closed emergency tripping valve, a short delay is, however,
sufficient. By means of entering the emergency tripping valve position via a binary
input, the short time delay T-SV-CLOSED becomes effective under an emergency
tripping condition. The time T-SV-OPEN is still effective as back-up stage.
It is also possible to block tripping via an external signal.

General The reverse power protection is only effective and accessible if this function was set
within the framework of the protective function configuration (section 2.2, address
0131, REVERSE POWER = Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required.
The address 3101 REVERSE POWER, serves to switch the function ON- or OFF or to
block only the trip command (Block Relay).
In case of a reverse power, the turbine set must be disconnected from the system as
the turbine operation is not permissible without a certain minimum steam throughput
(cooling) or, in case of a gas turbine set, the motor load would be too heavy for the
network.
Pick-Up Values The level of the active power input is determined by the friction losses to be overcome
and are situated in the following range, depending on the individual system:
• Steam turbines: PReverse/SN ≈ 1 % to 3 %
• Gas turbines: PReverse/SN ≈ 1 % to 3 %
• Diesel drives: PReverse/SN > 5 %
The setting can be acquired through a primary test. The reverse power should be
measured with the relay (Section 3.4.10.2). The user should select a setting of 0.5
times the value of the measured motoring energy. This value can be found at the per
cent operational measured values. The feature to correct angle faults of the current
and voltage transformers should be used especially for very large machines with a
particularly low motoring energy (see sections 2.3 and 3.4.10.2).
The pickup value 3102 P> REVERSE is to be set in percent of the secondary rated
apparent power.
SNsec = √3 ⋅ UNsec ⋅ INsec. If the primary motoring energy is known, it must be converted
to secondary quantities using the following formula:
Pickup Seal-In Time The 3105A T-HOLD pickup seal-in time serves to extend pulsed pickups to the
parameterized minimum duration.
Time Delays If reverse power without emergency tripping is used, a corresponding time delay must
be considered to bridge short reverse power states after synchronization or power
swings subsequent to system faults (e.g. 3-pole short circuit). Usually, a time delay
3103 T-SV-OPEN = approx. 10 s is set.
Under emergency tripping conditions, the reverse power protection performs a short-
time delayed trip subsequent to the emergency tripping via an oil-pressure switch or a
position switch at the emergency trip valve. Before tripping, it must be ensured that the
reverse power is only caused by the missing drive power at the turbine side. A time
delay is necessary to bridge the active power swing in case of sudden valve closing,
until a stationary active-power value is set. A 3104 T-SV-CLOSED time delay of about
1 to 3 s is sufficient for this purpose, whereas a time delay of about 0.5 s is
recommended for gas turbine sets. The set times are additional time delays not
including the operating times (measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective
function.
3103 T-SV-OPEN 0.00..60.00 sec; ∞ 10.00 sec Time Delay Long (without Stop

General The machine protection 7UM62 includes an active power supervision which monitors
whether the active power falls below one set threshold, and whether a separate
second set threshold is exceeded. Each of these functions can initiate different control
functions.
When, for example, with generators operating in parallel, the active power output of
one machine becomes so small that other generators could take over this power, then
it is often appropriate to shut down the lightly loaded machine. The criterion in this
case is that the “forward” power supplied into the network falls below a certain value.
In some applications it can be desirable to output a control signal if the active power
output rises above a certain value.
For example, an industrial network which has certain measures of its own generation
is coupled via a coupling circuit breaker with a HV utility network and should be
decoupled when a fault in the utility network is not cleared within a critical time. As a
criterion for decoupling, underfrequency, undervoltage, overcurrent, power direction,
or combinations of these can be used. As a result, the 7UM62 can also be used for
network decoupling.
Active Power For power measurement, two measurement methods are available. Depending on the
Measuring application either high-speed measurement or high-accuracy measurement (average
about 16 cycles) may be selected. High-speed measurement is suitable e.g. for
network decoupling.
The device calculates the active power from the positive sequence systems of the
generator currents and voltages. This value is compared with the set values. Each
stage can be blocked individually, as can be the complete forward active power
supervision, via binary inputs.
Figure 2-58 shows the logic diagram of the forward active power supervision.

Pick-up Values The setting of the forward power protection depends on the intended purpose. For this
Time Delays reason, general setting instructions are not possible. The pickup values are set in

General The machine impedance protection is used as a selective time graded protection to
provide shortest possible tripping times for short-circuits in the synchronous machine,
on the terminal leads as well as in the lower voltage winding of the unit transformer. It
thus provides a fast back-up protection to the generator and transformer differential
relays.
The impedance protection feature of the 7UM62 always operates with the currents of
side 2 (IL1, 2 ,3; S2).
2.17.1.1 Pickup
General Fault detection is required to detect a faulty condition in the power system and to
initiate all the necessary procedures for selective clearance of the fault:
− Start the time delays for the final stage t3,
− Determination of the faulty phase
− Release of impedance calculation,
− Release of tripping command,
− Indication/output of the faulty conductor(s).
Overcurrent fault detection is used for the machine impedance protection, which can
be supplemented by an undervoltage seal-in circuit. Following numeric filtering, the
currents in each phase are monitored in comparison with a set threshold value. A pick-
up signal is generated for that (those) phase(s) in which the set threshold has been
exceeded. These pickup signals are considered for choosing the measured values.
The overcurrent fault detector is reset when 95% of the pick-up value is fallen below
unless it is maintained by the undervoltage seal-in feature.
Undervoltage Seal- In case of excitation systems deriving their power from the machine terminals or from
In the network, the excitation voltage can rapidly decay to almost zero. This results in
decreasing short-circuit current, in spite of the short-circuit, and consequently drop-off
of the overcurrent fault detectors. In such cases the impedance protection pick-up is
maintained for a sufficiently long period by means of an undervoltage controlled seal-
in circuit using the positive sequence voltage. Fault detection will drop off only when
the voltage has reappeared to a magnitude of 105% of the predetermined value, or
when the holding time has expired.
The seal-in logic operates separate for each phase. The first pickup of a phase
overcurrent starts the timer T-SEAL-IN.
Figure 2-59 shows the logic diagram of the fault detection module of the impedance
protection.
For calculation of the fault impedance, the currents and voltages of the faulty loop are
decisive. The phase selective fault detector determines the faulted loop and releases
the corresponding measurement values for impedance calculation (see Table 2-7).
Loop Selection − The corresponding phase-earth loop is used for a 1-pole pickup.
− With a 2-pole pickup, the phase-phase loop with the corresponding phase-to-phase
voltage is used for impedance calculation.
− With a 3-pole pickup, the phase-phase loop with the highest current value is used
and with equal current amplitudes, the procedure described in the lowest line of
Table 2-7 is applied.
This loop selection type ensures that the fault impedance of system faults is measured
correctly via the unit transformer. A measuring error occurs with a 1-pole system short-
circuit, as the zero phase-sequence system is not transmitted via the machine
transformer (switching group e.g. Yd5). Table 2-8 describes the fault modeling and the
measuring errors.

Figure 2-59 Logic Diagram of the Pickup Stage of the Impedance Protection
The tripping zones of the machine impedance protection relay have a polygonally
shaped trip characteristic (see also Figure 2-60). It is a symmetrical characteristic,
even though a fault in reverse direction (negative R and X values) is impossible
provided the usual connection to the current transformers at the star-point side of the
generator is used. The polygon is identified by one parameter: impedance Z.
As long as a fault detector has picked up, the impedance calculation is effected
continuously. This is carried out by complex division of the voltage and current phases
derived from the loop selection. When the calculated fault impedance lies within the
set trip characteristic, the protection issues a trip command which may be delayed
according to the time setting.
The protected zones can be chosen such that the first stage (ZONE Z1, T-Z1) covers
faults in the generator and the lower voltage side of the unit transformer, whereas the
second stage (ZONE Z2, ZONE2 T2) measures into the network. It should be noted
that faults in the system cause impedance measurement errors due to the connection
group (star-delta) of the unit transformer (see subsection 2.17.1.2). An unwanted
operation of the stage can be excluded as the fault impedances of power system faults
are modeled too high.
Faults outside this range are switched off by the T END final time stage.
Depending on the switching status of the system, it may be useful to extend the ZONE
Z1, T-Z1. If, for example, the high-voltage side circuit breaker is open, the pickup can
only be caused by a fault in the power unit. If a consideration of the circuit breaker
auxiliary contact is possible, a so-called ZONE Z1B overreach zone can be switched
effective (see Figure 2-62).

The T END time delay is started subsequent to the protection pickup. The fault loop is
determined now. The loop impedance components are compared with the limit values
of the zones previously set. The tripping is executed if the impedance is within its zone
during the expiration of the corresponding time stage. For the first Z1 zone and also
for the Z1B overreach zone, the time delays will in most cases be zero or at least very
short, i.e. the tripping is executed as soon as it is certain that the fault is within this
zone.
The Z1B overreach stage can be switched effective from outside, via a binary input.
For the Z2 zone which may reach into the network, a time delay is selected
overreaching the first stage of the power system protection.
A drop-out can only be caused by a drop-out of the overcurrent pickup and not by
leaving the tripping polygon.
Figure 2-61 illustrates the logic diagram of the impedance protection.

General The machine impedance detection is only effective and accessible if it was previously
set within the framework of project configuration (Section 2.2) at address 0133,
IMPEDANCE PROT. = Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required.
Address 3301 IMPEDANCE PROT. is used to switch the function ON and OFF, or to
block only the trip command (Block Relay).
Pickup The maximum load current during operation is the most important criterion to be
considered when setting the overcurrent pickup. A pickup by an overload must be
excluded in any case! For this reason, the 3302 IMP I> pick-up value must be set
above the maximum (over) load current to be expected. Recommended setting: 1.2 to
1.5 times the nominal machine current. The pickup logic corresponds to the logic of
the UMZ I> definite time-overcurrent protection.
If the pickup is derived from the generator terminals and if, for this reason, the short
circuit can fall below the pickup value (address 3302) due to the collapsing voltage,
the undervoltage seal-in feature is used, i.e. the address 3303 U< SEAL-IN is
switched ON.
The undervoltage seal-in feature U< (address 3304) is set to a value below the lowest
phase-to-phase voltage occurring during operation, e.g. to U< = 75 % to 80 % of the
nominal voltage. The seal-in time (address 3305 T-SEAL-IN) must exceed the
maximum fault clearance time in a back-up case (recommended setting: address
3312 T END + 1 s).
Impedance Stages As illustrated in figure 2-60, the protection has the following characteristics which may
be set independently:
− 1st zone (Z1 instantaneous zone) with the setting parameters
ZONE Z1 Reactance = reach,
T-Z1 = 0 or short delay, if required.
− Z1B overreach zone, externally controlled via binary input, with the setting
parameters
ZONE Z1B Reactance = reach,
T-Z1B T1B = 0 or short delay, if required.
− 2nd zone (Z2 zone) with the setting parameters
ZONE Z2 Reactance = reach,
ZONE2 T2 The user must select a value for T2 which is situated above the
grading time of the network protection.
− Non-directional final stage with the setting parameter
T END The user must select a value for T END which ensures that the 2nd
or 3rd stage of the series-connected power system distance
protection is overreached.
As the user can proceed on the assumption that the impedance protection measuring
influences the unit transformer, it must be ensured that the parameterization selection
sufficiently considers the transformer control range.
Therefore, ZONE Z1 is normally set to a reach of approx. 70 % of the protected zone
(i.e. about 70 % of the transformer reactance), with no or only a small delay (i.e. T-Z1
= 0.00 s to 0.50 s). In this case, the protective relay will switch off faults on this distance
with its operating time or with a slight time delay (undelayed tripping). A 0.1 s time
delay is preferred.
For ZONE Z2 the reach could be set to about 100 % of the transformer reactance, or
in addition to a network impedance. The corresponding ZONE2 T2 time stage is to be
selected in a way that it overreaches the network protective relays of the following
lines. The T END time is the last back-up time.
The following formula is generally valid for the primary impedance (with limiting to the
unit transformer):

The nominal current of the protective relay (= secondary nominal current of the current
transformer) is automatically considered by the relay. You have already
communicated the transformation ratios of the current and voltage transformers to the
relay by entering the nominal transformer quantities (see Section 2.3).
Example:
Transformer data:
usc = 7 %

Z1B Overreach The Z1B overreach zone (address 3308 ZONE Z1B) is an externally controlled stage
Zone which does not influence the Z1 normal stage. Consequently, there is no changeover,
but the overreach zone is switched effective or ineffective, depending on the position
of the high-voltage side circuit breaker.
The Z1B zone is usually switched effective with an open high-voltage circuit breaker.
In this case, every impedance protection pickup can only be due to a fault in the
protection zone of the block, as the power system is disconnected from the block.
Consequently, the undelayed tripping zone can be extended to 100 % to 120 % of the
protection zone without any loss of selectivity.
The Z1B zone is activated via a binary input controlled by the circuit breaker auxiliary
contact (see figure 2-62). The overreach zone is assigned to an individual 3309 T-
Z1B time delay.
Final Stage In case of short circuits outside the Z1 and Z2 zones, the relay functions as a time-
delayed overcurrent protection. Its nondirectional final time T END is selected in a way
that its time value overreaches the second or third stage of the series-connected
network distance protection.
General Dynamic occurrences such as sudden load changes, short-circuits, automatic reclo-
sures or switching operations within the power system may cause power swings.
Therefore, the impedance protection is complemented by a power swing blocking
function to avoid spurious tripping.
Power swings are three-phase symmetrical occurrences. The first prerequisite is
therefore the symmetry of the phase currents, which is verified by evaluation of the
negative sequence current. This means that asymmetrical (all single-phase and two-
phase) short-circuits cannot cause the power swing blocking to pick up. Even if a pow-
er swing has been detected, the asymmetrical short-circuits following it quickly deac-
tivate the power swing blocking and make a trip by the impedance protection possible.
Since a power swing happens much more slowly than a short-circuit, the rate of
change of the impedance is a reliable criterion for its identification. Because of its sym-
metrical nature, the positive sequence impedance obtained from the positive se-
quence components of the currents and voltages is evaluated.
Logic Figure 2-63 shows the logic diagram of the power swing blocking. In the upper section,
the current symmetry monitoring can be seen. A release signal is given if there is a
three-pole pickup with no negative sequence system current. For detection of power
swings, a power swing polygon (P/SPOL) is used which is greater than the trip polygon
(TPOL). The distance between the two polygons can be set (common setting for R and
X direction). The user can choose for each setting parameter whether the trip polygon
refers only to characteristic Z1 or to characteristics Z1 & Z2. In the latter case, the trip
polygon is the maximum impedance value.
Measuring The criterion for power swing blocking is composed of the power swing polygon, its
Principle distance to the trip polygon, the trip polygon itself and the rate of change of the imped-
ance. The protection compares the first impedance value after entering the power
swing polygon (at a moment Tent) with the last impedance value outside the polygon
(at a moment Tent-∆t). The time ∆t is determined by the measuring interval, which is
one cycle. If the rate of change of the impedance vector thus determined is less than
a set value ∆Z/∆t, a power swing is detected. The impedance stage is not blocked,
however, until the impedance vector enters the trip polygon TPOL.
If the first impedance value is both inside the P/SPOL and the TPOL, the protection
detects immediately a short-circuit, because there must be at least one impedance
value between the P/SPOL and the TPOL. The distance between the power swing
polygon P/SPOL and the trip polygon TPOL, and the rate of change ∆Z/∆t are
matched to one another in such a way that power swings are reliably detected and the
desired impedance zone (Z1 or Z1 & Z2) of the impedance protection is blocked. The
blocking remains effective until the measured impedance vector has left again the trip
polygon / power swing polygon, the impedance changes faster than the change rate,
or asymmetrical power conditions rule out the possibility of a power swing. The power
swing blocking time is also limited by a parameter setting
(T-ACTION P/S).
Blocking of the Power swing blocking is mostly used for impedance stage Z1, because the delay time
Impedance Stages T1 for this stage is set low. Accordingly, a high delay time T2 must be set for zone Z2.
In the overreach zone Z1B no power swings can occur by definition, since the network
breaker is open and there is thus no second machine for power swings. Likewise, the
power swing blocking does not block the non-directional overcurrent stage (T3).

The power swing blocking is only effective if address 3313 POWER SWING has been
set to ON.
A sensible compromise has to be found for the distance between the power swing
polygon and the trip polygon (parameter: P/SPOL-TPOL (address 3314) and for the
rate of change (parameter: dZ/dt (address 3315)). It must be kept in mind that the
rate of change is not constant and decreases with increasing proximity to the origin of
the coordinate system.The rate of change is also determined by power system condi-
tions, such as the impedance between the systems involved in the power swing, and
by the power swing frequency (see also Section 2.18 Out-of-Step Protection).
Meaning:
X Reactance between the sources of the power swing
fp Power swing frequency
δ Power swing angle
Figure 2-64 shows an example of how the rate of change evolves as a function of the
power swing angle. The rate of change is smallest at an angle of 180°, but increases
proportionally with the angle considered.

For this reason, the setting value dZ/dt must also be coordinated with the impedance
jump occurring at the start of a short-circuit.
To do so, you determine the minimum operating impedance (ZL, min), form the differ-
ence to the setting of the impedance zone (e.g. Z1) and calculate the impedance gra-
dient, taking into account the one-cycle measuring interval.
Example:
Umin = 0.9 UN, Imax = 1.1 IN, uK = 10 %, ∆t = 20 ms
UN = 100 V, IN = 1 A
0, 7 ⋅ u K ⋅ U N
Z1 = --------------------------------------- = 4, 04 Ω

3 ⋅ 1, 1 ⋅ I N
dZ
------- = ( Z L, min – Z1 )∆/t = 43, 20 Ω/20 ms = 2160 Ω/s
dt
If safety factor 4 is chosen, dZ/dt should never be set higher than 500 Ω/s
(or 100 Ω/s for 5 A transformers).
The default setting for dZ/dt is 300 Ω/s, which should be adequate for most applica-
tions. This is also the basis for the minimum distance P/SPOL - TPOL, assuming that
for detection of a power swing there must be one impedance value between P/SPOL
and TPOL.
P/SPOL – TPOL > dZ/dt ⋅ ∆t = 300 Ω/s ⋅ 0.02 s = 6 Ω (selected setting value: 8 Ω)
All other settable parameters are advanced parameters which need not normally be
modified.
Whether a power swing can cause an overfunctioning of the impedance protection de-
pends mainly on the time the impedance vector remains inside the trip polygon. This
time can only be reliably determined by „transient“ calculations.
If the rate of change in the proximity of 180° is known, it can be the basis for a rough
estimation of the time.
T = 2 ⋅ Zcharacteristic /dZ/dt (180°)
The above data yield the following value:
Zcharacteristic= Z1 = 4 Ω
dZ/dt (180°) = 20 Ω/s (from Figure 2-64)
T = 2 ⋅ 4 Ω/20 Ω/s = 0.4 s
This means that for delay times of more than 0.4 s no power swing blocking is needed.

General In extensive high-voltage networks, short-circuits which are not disconnected quickly
enough, or disconnection of coupling links which may result in an increasing of the
coupling reactance, may lead to system swings. These consist of power swings which
endanger the stability of the power transmission. Stability problems result in particular
from active power swings which can lead to pole-slipping and thus to overloading of
the synchronous machines.
General The out-of-step protection detects these power swings by the well-proven impedance
measurement. The trajectory of the complex impedance vector is evaluated. The
impedance is calculated from the positive sequence components of the voltages and
currents. Trip decision is made dependent of the rate of change of the impedance
vector and on the location of the electrical centre of the power swing.
The out-of-step condition is illustrated at a simplified equivalent circuit. Figure 2-65
shows the generator voltage UG and the network equivalent voltage UN. The
generator, transformer, and network impedance is situated between these two
voltages. The total of these impedances should be the impedance Ztot.

where δ is the displacement angle between the generator voltage and the network
equivalent voltage. Under normal conditions, this angle depends on the load situation
and is nearly constant. It fluctuates during power swings and can vary, in case of an
out-of-step condition, between 0° and 360°. Figure 2-66 shows the trajectory of the
impedance vector at the measurement location m according to the above formula. The
origin of the coordinate system corresponds to the measurement location (voltage
transformer set). When the ratio of the voltage magnitudes UN/UG is kept constant and
the load angle δ varies, then circles result as a locus diagram. The centre and the
radius of the circle are determined by the ratio UN/UG. The centre points are situated
on a line which is determined by Ztot. Minimum and maximum of the magnitude of the
measured impedance are at load angles δ = 0° and δ = 180°. If the measurement
location is the electrical centre, the measured voltage, and thus the measured
impedance, becomes zero when the load angle becomes δ = 180°.

Figure 2-67 shows, more detailed, the power swing detection characteristic. The
inclination angle ϕP is assumed to be 90°. The setting parameters Za, Zb, Zc and (Zd–
Zc) determine the rectangle. It is symmetrical as to its vertical axis. The limit or Zb
reaches in reverse direction into the generator. The forward reaches are Zc) into the
unit transformer, and the second stage Zd) into the network system. Two
characteristics are available. The lower area, characteristic 1 (i.e. the non-hatched
area in Figure 2-67), covers the electrical centre being in the generator block until the
unit transformer, the hatched area, characteristic 2, discriminates the electrical centre
being in the network system. The point of crossing of the symmetry axis is decisive for
the assignment to the characteristic.
Power swings are three-phase symmetrical occurrences. The first prerequisite is
therefore the symmetry of the currents which is verified by evaluation of the negative
sequence current. A condition for power swing detection is that the positive sequence
component of the current exceeds an adjustable limit I1and the negative sequence
current remains below an adjustable value I2.

General The out-of-step protection is only effective and accessible if this function has been set
during the configuration of the protective functions (Section 2.2, address 0135, OUT-
OF-STEP = Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address 3501
OUT-OF-STEP is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip
command (Block Relay).
Pickup The out-of-step protection operates only when the positive sequence component of
the currents has exceeded a minimum threshold 3502 I1> RELEASE (overvoltage
pickup). As out-of-step conditions are symmetrical occurrences, a maximum value of
negative sequence current 3503 I2< RELEASE must not be exceeded.
The determining factor for overcurrent setting I1> RELEASE is the maximum possible
operating current. Pickup under conditions of permissible overload should be ex-
cluded. The setting should therefore be set above the maximum anticipated (over-)
load current (at least 120 % IN. Depending on network conditions, smaller pickup
thresholds can be chosen, so that the measurement (see Figure 2-68) may be
released all the time. As out-of-step conditions are symmetrical occurrences, the
pickup threshold of the negative sequence component of the current I2< RELEASE
should be set to approx. 20 % IN.
Impedance The measured impedances during power swing conditions are decisive for the
Settings settings. For the direction to the machine (as viewed from the location of the voltage
transformers), the power swing reactance of the machine must be considered, which
is approximately the transient reactance Xd' of the machine. Consequently, you will
calculate the secondary transient reactance and set it for Zb ≈ Xd' (see Figure 2-69).

As it is presupposed that the generator is connected with the network via a unit
transformer, the setting in the network direction is chosen such that the reactance
reach of characteristic 1 is approximately 70 % to 90 % of the transformer impedance,
and the reach of characteristic 2 is into the network. Thus, Zc at address 3506 is set
to 70 % to 90 % of the transformer impedance XSC. For characteristic 2, the remaining
portion of the transformer impedance is set at 3507 Zd - Zc, if necessary
complemented by the impedance of the additional line section to be monitored.
Table 2-11 shows typical values of the impedances of unit transformers XSC for
secondary rated currents IN = 1 A and IN = 5 A, the relationship of the values is
according to the following equation:

The setting Za is decisive for the width of the power swing polygon. This setting value
3504 Za is determined by the total impedance Ztot and can be derived from the
equation in Figure 2-70. Ztot can be calculated from the sum of Zb and Zd; then the
power swing angle is valid between the machine e.m.f. and the network. Optionally,
Ztot can be calculated from Zb + Zc; in this case the power swing angle is valid between
the machine e.m.f. and the unit transformer. The default setting of address 3504 Za
corresponds to the latter case. Usually, a power swing angle δ = 120° is chosen, since
the generator voltage UG and the system voltage UN equal the voltage difference:

polygon, leads to the following approximative formula for the maximum detectable

Assuming that the characteristic should cover 85 % of the transformer reactance, the
setting of Zc results in ≈ 0.85 ⋅ 4.2 Ω ≈ 3.6 Ω.
Assuming that the remaining transformer reactance (0.15 ⋅ 4.2 Ω) and the covered
system reactance should be 10 Ω, the setting of 3507 results in:
Zd - Zc = 6.4 Ω.
The width Za of the polygon is determined by the total impedance Ztot. In this
calculation example, the total impedance Ztot is that of characteristic 1, i.e. the sum of
generator reactance and one portion of the unit transformer reactance; that is the sum
of the setting values for Zb and Zc = 12 Ω + 3.6 Ω = 15.6 Ω):
Za ≈ 0.289 ⋅ 15.6 Ω ≈ 4.5 Ω.
Number of Power Address 3509 REP. CHAR. 1 determines the number of out-of-step periods for
Swings characteristic 1 which will lead to trip, i.e.the number of times this characteristic must
have been passed through. For characteristic 1, 1 or 2 passes are normally adequate
as out-of-step conditions with the electrical centre within the power station unit should
not be tolerated too long, and the power swing frequency tends to accelerate during
an out-of-step condition, so that the electrical and dynamic stress of the machine
increases. On the other hand, for out-of-step conditions with the electrical centre being
in the network system a higher number of slip periods can be tolerated, so that
address 3510 REP. CHAR. 2 can usually be set to 4.
Each time characteristic 1 or 2 is passed through, a holding time set at address 3511
T-HOLDING) is started. A detected out-of-step condition is maintained for that time so
that the counter is incremented with the next passing through. When no renewed
pickup occurs within this time, the counters n1 or n2 respectively are reset, i.e. the out-
of-step condition is “forgotten”. This time should be set higher that the longest
expected slip period (i.e. lowest slip frequency). Settings between 20 s and 30 s are
good values.
Each time one of the counters n1 or n2 is incremented, the holding time is restarted,
and an annunciation “Out-of-step characteristic 1" or “Out-of-step characteristic 2" is
issued. These annunciations disappear after the time which is set at address 3512 T-
SIGNAL. If this time is set higher that the time between two power swings, the
annunciation “Out-of-step characteristic 1(2)” begins with the first out-of-step
detection and ends after the last detected out-of-step detection, prolonged wit the set
time T-SIGNAL.
With a rated secondary current of IN = 5 A, the parameters with the addresses 3504

General Undervoltage protection detects and reports abnormally low voltage conditions, some
of which could be related to system stability problems (voltage collapse, etc.).
Two-pole short circuits or earth faults cause an asymmetrical voltage collapse.
Compared with three monophase measuring systems, the detection of the positive
phase-sequence system is not influenced by these procedures and is advantageous
especially with regard to the judgement of stability problems.
For this, the fundamental wave of the positive sequence system is paramount. The
phase voltages are filtered by the protection (Fourier analysis) and only the
fundamental waves are evaluated. Of these, the protection only detects the positive
sequence system.
Undervoltage protection consists of two definite time elements. A pickup is signalled
as soon as the value falls below the selectable voltage thresholds. A trip signal is
transmitted if a voltage pickup exists for a selectable time.
In order to ensure that the protection does not accidentally pick up due to a secondary
voltage failure, each stage can be blocked individually or both stages can be blocked
in common via binary input(s), e.g. by a voltage transformer miniature circuit breaker
(m.c.b.). In addition to this, the integrated Fuse–Failure–Monitor blocks both stages
(see section 2.38.1.4).
When the undervoltage protection has picked up while the relay changes to the
operational condition 0 - i.e. no suitable measured quantities are present or the
permissible frequency range has been left - pick-up will be sealed in. Thus, trip is
ensured even after the voltages have completely collapsed. This seal-in can be
cancelled only after the voltage has reverted to a value above the undervoltage drop-
off value or by activating the blocking input for undervoltage protection.
There is no pickup and trip if no pickup exists before the device is in operating status
0 (thus e.g. upon switchon of the device without present measuring quantities). An
immediate tripping may be caused on transition into operating status 1 (i.e. by
applying measuring quantities). For this reason, it is recommended to activate the
blocking input of the undervoltage protection via the circuit breaker auxiliary contact
and to block the protective function in this way, e.g. after a protection tripping.

the configuration of the protection functions (Section 2.2) at address 0140,
UNDERVOLTAGE = Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address
4001 UNDERVOLTAGE is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the
trip command (Block Relay).
Setting Values It must be considered that the positive phase-sequence system of the voltages and
thus also the pickup thresholds are evaluated as phase-to-phase quantities
(terminal voltage ⋅ √3). The first undervoltage protection stage is typically set to about
75% of % the nominal machine voltage, i.e. address 4002 U< = 75 V. The user must
select a value for the 4003 T U< time setting that ensures that voltage dips affecting
the operating stability are disconnected. On the other hand, the time delay must be
long enough to avoid disconnection in case of permissible short-time voltage dips.
For the second stage, a lower pickup threshold 4004 U<< e.g. = 65 V should be
combined with a shorter trip time 4005 T U<< e.g. = 0.5 s to perform an approximate
adaptation to the stability behaviour of the consumers.
All setting times are additional time delays which do not include the operating times
(measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective function.

General Overvoltage protection serves to protect the electrical machine, and the associated
electrical plant connected to it, from the effects of impermissible voltage increases.
Overvoltages can be caused by incorrect manual operation of the excitation system,
faulty operation of the automatic voltage regulator, (full) load shedding of a generator,
separation of the generator from the system or during island operation.
By means of the overvoltage protection feature, the user can select if he wants to
monitor the phase-to-phase voltages or the phase-earth-voltages. In case of a high
overvoltage, the switchoff is performed with a short-time delay, whereas in case of
lower overvoltages, the switchoff is performed with a longer time delay. In this way,
the voltage regulator can take the voltage back into the nominal range. The user can
specify the voltage limit values and the time delays individually for both stages.
Each stage can be blocked individually and/or both stages can be blocked in common
via binary input(s).
Figure 2-72 shows the logic diagram of the overvoltage protection.

General The overvoltage protection is only effective and accessible if it has been set during the
configuration of the protective functions (Section 2.2) at address 0141,
OVERVOLTAGE = Enabled. Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address
4101 OVERVOLTAGE is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip
command (Block Relay).
Setting Values Address 4107A VALUES U> serves to specify the measured quantities used by the
protection feature. The default setting (normal case) is specified for phase-to-phase
voltages (= U-ph-ph). The phase-earth-voltages should be selected for low-voltage
machines with grounded neutral conductor (= U-ph-e). It should be noted that even
if phase-earth voltages are selected as measured quantities, the setting values of the
protection functions are referred to phase-to-phase voltages.
The setting of limit values and time delays of the overvoltage protection depends on
the speed with which the voltage regulator can regulate voltage variations. The
protection must not intervene into the regulation process of the fault-free functioning
voltage regulator. For this reason, the two-stage characteristic must always be above
the voltage time characteristic of the regulation procedure.
The long-time stage 4102 U> and 4103 T U> must intervene in case of steady-state
overvoltages. It is set to approximately 110 % to 115 % UN and, depending on the
regulator speed, to a range between 1.5 s and 5 s.
In case of a full-load rejection of the generator, the voltage increases first in relation to
the transient voltage. Only by this time, the voltage regulator reduces it again to its

procedure in case of a full-load rejection does not lead to a tripping. For example, for
4104 U>> about 130 % UN with a 4105 T U>> delay of zero to 0.5 s are typical
values.
All setting times are additional time delays which do not include the operating times

General The frequency protection function detects abnormally high and low frequencies in the
system. If the frequency lies outside the allowable range, appropriate actions are
initiated, such as separating a generator from the system.
A decrease in system frequency occurs when the system experiences an increase in
the real power demand, or when a malfunction occurs with a generator governor or
automatic generation control (AGC) system. The frequency decrease protection is
also used for generators which (for a certain time) function on an island network. This
is due to the fact that the reverse power protection cannot operate in case of a drive
power failure. The generator can be disconnected from the power system by means
of the frequency decrease protection.
An increase in system frequency occurs when large blocks of load are removed from
the system, or again when a malfunction occurs with a generator governor or AGC
system. This means a risk of self-excitation for generators feeding long lines under no-
load conditions.
Through the use of filters and repeated measurements, the frequency evaluation is
free from harmonic influences and very accurate.
Underfrequency Frequency protection consists of four frequency elements (f1 to f4). Any given
and Overfrequency frequency element can be set to pickup for either overfrequency or underfrequency
Protection conditions. Each element can be independently set, and utilized to perform different
functions within the system. The parameterization determines the individual
application purpose of the corresponding stage. For the f4 frequency stage, the user
can specify independently of the parameterized limit value if this stage shall function
as decrease or increase stage. For this reason, it can also be used for special
applications, if, for example, the user desires a signalization in case of a frequency
overrange below the nominal frequency.
Operating Ranges The frequency can be determined as long as the positive sequence voltages are
present and of sufficient magnitude. If the measurement voltage drops below a
settable value Umin, then frequency protection is blocked, as precise frequency
values can no longer be calculated from the signal under these conditions.
With the overfrequency protection, there is a seal-in of the overfrequency pickup
during the transition to the 0 mode, if the last measured frequency amounted to >66
Hz. The switch-off command drops out by a function blocking or by the transition into
operational condition 1. The pickup drops out if the frequency measured last before
the transition into operational condition 0 is <66 Hz.
With the underfrequency protection, there is no precise frequency calculation during
the transition into the 0 mode due to a too low frequency. Consequently, the pickup or
tripping drop out.
Timers/Logic Each frequency element has an associated settable time delay. When a frequency
element picks up and the time delay elapses, a trip signal is generated. When a
frequency elements drops out, the control signal (tripping or alarm signal) is
immediately terminated, but not before the minimum command duration has elapsed.
Each of the four frequency elements can be blocked individually by binary inputs.
Figure 2-73 shows the logic diagram for the frequency protection function.

FREQUENCY Prot. has been set to Enabled during the configuration of the
protective functions. Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address 4201
O/U FREQUENCY is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip
command (Block Relay).
Pick-Up Values The nominal system frequency is programmed in Power System Data 1, and the
pickup settings for each of the frequency elements f1 PICKUP to f4 PICKUP
determines whether the function will be used for overfrequency or underfrequency
protection. Set the pickup threshold lower than nominal frequency if the element is to
be used for underfrequency protection, and higher than nominal frequency if it is to be
used for overfrequency protection.
Note:
If the element is not required, the frequency setting should be set equal to the nominal
frequency, in which case the element becomes inactive.
For the f4 frequency stage, the previously explained circumstances are only relevant
if the 4214 THRESHOLD f4 parameter is set to Automatic (default setting). If
desired, this parameter can also be set to f> or f<, in which case the evaluation
direction (increase or decrease detection) can be specified independent of the
parameterized f4 PICKUP threshold.
If underfrequency protection is used for load shedding purposes, then the frequency
settings relative to other feeder relays are generally based on the priority of the
customers served by the protective relay. Normally a graded load shedding is required
that takes into account the importance of the consumers or consumer groups.
Further application examples exist in the field of power stations. The frequency values
to be set mainly depend, also in these cases, on the specifications of the power
system/power station operator. In this context, the frequency decrease protection
ensures the power station’s own demand by disconnecting it from the power system
on time. The turbo regulator regulates the machine set to the nominal speed.
Consequently, the station’s own demands can be continuously supplied at nominal
frequency.
Under the assumption that the apparent power is reduced to the same degree,
turbine-driven generators can, as a rule, be continuously operated down to 95 % of
the nominal frequency. However, for inductive consumers, the frequency reduction
does not only mean an enhanced current input but also endangers stable operation.
For this reason, only a short-time frequency reduction down to about 48 Hz (for fN =
50 Hz) or 58 Hz (for fN = 60 Hz) is permissible.
A frequency increase can, for example, occur due to a load shedding or malfunction
of the speed regulation (e.g. in an island network). In this way, the frequency increase
protection can, for example, be used as overspeed protection.
Setting example:
Delays The time delays (definite time) T f1 to T f4 entered at addresses 4204, 4207, 4210
and 4213) allow the device to prioritize or sort corrective actions based on the degree
to which the actual system frequency departs (upward or downward) from the nominal
system frequency. The set times are additional time delays not including the operating
times (measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective function.
Minimum Voltage Address 4215 Umin is used to set the minimum voltage. If the positive sequence
voltage is less than this value, the frequency protection is blocked. The recommended
value is approx. 65 % UN. The minimum voltage limiting can be deactivated by means
of the”0” setting.

Transformer A perhaps existing deviation between the primary nominal voltage of the voltage
Adaptation transformers and the object to be protected is compensated by means of the internal
correction factor (UN prim/UN mach). For this reason, pick-up values and characteristics
do not need to be converted to secondary values. As a prerequisite, however, the
system quantities ’primary nominal transformer voltage’ and ’nominal voltage of the
object to be protected’ must be entered correctly (see Sections 2.3 and 2.5).
Characteristics The overexcitation protection feature includes two staged characteristics and one
thermal characteristic for an approximate modeling of the heating which the
overexcitation may cause to the object to be protected. As soon as a first pickup
threshold (warning stage 4302 U/f >) has been exceeded, a 4303 T U/f > time
stage starts. A warning message is transmitted subsequent to the expiration of this
time stage. A counter switching is activated when the pickup threshold is exceeded.
This weighted counter is incremented according to the present U/f value.
Consequently, the trip time results from the parameterized characteristic. A trip signal
is transmitted as soon as the trip counter state has been reached.
The trip signal is canceled as soon as the value falls below the pickup threshold and
the counter is decremented according to a parameterizeable cool-down time
selection.

General The overexcitation protection is only effective and accessible if it has been set during
the configuration of the protective functions at 0143 OVEREXC. PROT. = Enabled.
Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address 4301 OVEREXC. PROT. is
used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip command (Block
Relay).
The overexcitation feature serves to measure the voltage/frequency quotient
proportional to the B induction. The overexcitation protection must pick up when the
induction admissible for the protected object (e.g. power station unit transformer) is
exceeded. The transformer is endangered, if, for example, the power station block is
switched off at full-load operation and the voltage regulator does not respond at all or
does not respond fast enough to avoid the related voltage increase.
Similarly, a decrease in frequency (speed), e.g. in island systems, can endanger the
transformer because of increased induction.
In this way, the U/f protection monitors the correct function both of the voltage
regulators and of the speed regulation in all operating states.
Independent The limit-value setting at address 4302 U/f > is based on the induction limit value
Stages relation to the nominal induction (B/BN) specified by the manufacturer of the object to
be protected.
A pickup message is transmitted as soon as the induction limit value U/f set at address
4302 is exceeded. A warning message is transmitted subsequent to the
corresponding 4303 T U/f > time delay.
The 4304 U/f >>, 4305 T U/f >> trip stage characteristic serves to switch off
particularly strong overexcitations within a short time.
The time set for this purpose is an additional time delay which does not include the
operating time (measuring time, drop-out time).
Thermal A thermal characteristic is superimposed to the trip stage characteristic. For this
Characteristic purpose, the overtemperature created by the overexcitation is approximately
modeled. Not only the already mentioned pickup signalization is generated on
exceeding the protection U/f induction limit value set at address 4302 but a counter is
tripped additionally. Depending on the set characteristic, this counter provokes the
tripping after the specified time.

Limitation The model of the heating of the object to be protected is limited to a 150 % trip
temperature overrange.
Time for Cool Down The tripping by the thermal image drops out by the time of the pickup threshold
dropout. However, the counter content is reset to zero with the cool-down time
parameterized at address 4314 T COOL DOWN. In this context, this parameter is
defined as the time required by the thermal image to cool down from 100 % to 0 %.
Voltage A perhaps existing deviation between the primary nominal voltage of the voltage
Transformer transformers and the object to be protected is compensated by means of the internal
Adaptation correction factor (UN prim/UN mach). As a prerequisite, however, the incoming power
system parameters 0221 Unom PRIMARY and 0251 UN GEN/MOTOR must have
been entered correctly according to the Section 2.3.

Measured Quantity For the above reasons, the positive sequence system is calculated from the
fundamental waves of the three phase-earth voltages, and fed to the protection. The
measured voltages are filtered by numerical filter algorithms; the fundamental wave is
paramount.
Where voltage transformers in broken delta (V) connection are available on the plant
side, the protection is applied to the phase-to-phase voltages; the internal starpoint is
left empty. By this a virtual starpoint is formed, so that the (virtual) phase-to-earth
voltages can still be detected (see connection example in Figure A-34 in the Appendix
A.4).
Tripping The protection can be matched exactly to the stability characteristic by means of a
Characteristic voltage-time integral-action characteristic. If a motor falls into the unstable area below
the curve, it will stall or run at substantially reduced speed, even if full voltage is
restored after a short time. Only squirrel-cage machines for which the torque
characteristic of the driven machine lies below the motor characteristic at all speeds
will regain their rated speed. All other machines will be thermally and perhaps
mechanically overstressed during an attempt to return to full speed after return of
voltage.
Undervoltage protection consists of an inverse time element. In order to avoid
malfunction of the protection in the event of secondary voltage failure, it can be
blocked via a binary input, e.g. by the auxiliary contact of a voltage transformer
miniature circuit breaker or from the position of the main circuit breaker when the
machine is at stand-still. In addition to this, the integrated fuse failure monitor (FFM)
blocks both stages (see Section 2.38.1.4).
If no measured values are available at the device (operation condition 0), no trip signal
is given if there was no pickup. This ensures that the undervoltage protection does not
pick up at once when it is switched on with no measured value available. Once the
protection has been activated, it can only be deactivated by triggering the blocking
input.
If a pickup signal is present when the device enters operating condition 0 (i.e. no
measured values, or frequency outside the permissible range), it is sealed in. The
delay time until tripping is calculated in the same way as for a drop to 0 V. The sealed-
in pickup or tripping signal is only reset if the voltage is restored, or if the blocking input
is triggered.
The pickup/dropout ratio is 101 % or 0.5 V absolute of the threshold set at address
4402 Up< PICKUP. The integral action of the tripping time determination is “frozen“
between the pickup and the dropout value.
Figure 2-77 shows the logic diagram of the inverse undervoltage protection.

General The inverse overvoltage protection is only effective and accessible if it has been set
during the configuration of the protective functions (Section 2.2, address 0144,
INV.UNDERVOLT. = Enabled). Set Disabled if the function is not required.
Address 4401 INV. UNDERVOLT. is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to
block only the trip command (Block Relay).
Setting Values It must be considered that the positive phase-sequence system of the voltages and
thus also the pickup thresholds are evaluated as phase-to-phase quantities
(terminal voltage ⋅ √3).
For the pickup values no hard and fast rules can be laid down. But since the protection
is used mainly to protect consumers (induction machines) from the consequences of
voltage drops, and to prevent loss of stability, the pickup value is normally set to
approx. 75 % of the nominal machine voltage, i.e. address 4402 Up< PICKUP is set
to 75 V. In exceptional cases, where the voltage drop during startup is too big, it may
be necessary to set lower values. The time multiplier 4403 T MUL must be selected
such that voltage drops that would lead to unstable operation are reliably
disconnected. On the other hand, the time delay must be big enough to avoid
disconnections in case of permissible short-time voltage dips.
If required, the tripping time can also be extended by an additional time stage 4404
T Up<.
All setting times are additional time delays which do not include the operating times
(measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective function.

General With the rate-of-frequency-change protection, frequency changes can be quickly de-
tected. This allows a prompt response to frequency dips or frequency rises. A trip com-
mand can be issued even before the pickup threshold of the frequency protection (see
Section 2.21) is reached.
Frequency changes occur, for instance, when there is an unbalance between the pro-
duced and the necessary active power. They call for control measures on one hand
and for switching actions on the other hand. These can be relief measures, such as
network decoupling, or disconnection of loads (load shedding). The sooner these
measures are taken after a malfunction appears, the more effective they are.
The two main applications for this protection function is thus network decoupling and
load shedding.
Measuring From the positive-sequence voltage, the frequency is determined once per cycle over
Principle a measuring window of 3 cycles, and a mean value of two successive frequency mea-
surements is formed. The frequency difference is then determined over a settable time
interval (default setting 5 cycles). The ratio between frequency difference and time dif-
ference is equivalent to the frequency change; it can be positive or negative. The mea-
surement is performed continuously (per cycle). Monitoring functions such as under-
voltage monitoring, checks for phase angle jumps etc. help to avoid overfunctioning.
Frequency The rate-of-frequency-change protection has four stages, from df1/dt to df4/dt. This al-
Increase/ Decrease lows to adapt the function variably to all power system conditions. The stages can be
set to detect either frequency decreases (-df/dt<) or frequency increases (+df/dt>).
The -df/dt stage is only active for frequencies below the rated frequency, or less if the
underfrequency release is activated. Likewise, the df/dt> stage is active for frequen-
cies above the rated frequency, or higher, if the overfrequency release is activated.
The parameter setting decides where a stage will be used.
To avoid a proliferation of setting parameters, the settable measuring window for the
frequency difference formation and the dropout difference are each valid for two stag-
es.
Operating Ranges The frequency can be determined as long as there is a sufficiently strong positive se-
quence system of voltages. If the measuring voltage drops below a settable value
Umin, the frequency protection is blocked because the signal allows under such con-
ditions no precise calculation of the frequency values.
Time Delays/Logic Tripping can be delayed by a set time delay associated with each frequency element.
This is recommended for monitoring of small gradients. A trip command is generated
as soon as a time delay has expired. After the pickup has reset, the trip command is
immediately reset as well, but the trip signal is maintained for at least the minimum
command duration.
Each of the four frequency change stages can be blocked individually by binary input.
The undervoltage blocking acts on all stages simultaneously.

General The rate-of-frequency-change protection is only effective and accessible if during the
configuration address 145 df/dt Protect. has been set accordingly. 2 or 4 stages
can be selected. The default setting is 2 df/dt stages.
Address 4501 df/dt Protect. allows to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block
only the trip command (Block relay).
Pickup Values The setting procedure is the same for all stages. In a first step, it must be determined
whether the stage is to monitor a frequency rise at f>fN or a frequency drop at f< fN.
For stage 1, for instance, this setting is made at address 4502 df1/dt >/<. The pick-
up value is set as an absolute value at address 4503 STAGE df1/dt. The setting of
address 4502 informs the protection function of the applicable sign.
The pickup value depends on the application and is determined by power system con-
ditions. In most cases, a network analysis will be necessary. A sudden disconnection
of loads leads to a surplus of active power. The frequency rises and causes a positive
frequency change. A failure of generators, on the other hand, leads to a deficit of ac-
tive power. The frequency drops and leads to a negative frequency change.
The following relations can be used as an example for estimation of the pickup value.
They apply for the change rate at the beginning of a frequency change (approx. 1 sec-
ond).
df f N ∆P
- ⋅ --------
----- = – ---------
dt 2 H SN
Meaning:
fN Rated frequency
∆P Active power change
∆P = PConsumption – PGeneration
SN Rated apparent machine power
H Inertia constant
Typical values for H are:
– for hydro-electric generators (salient-pole machines) H = 1.5 s to 6 s
– for turbine-driven generators (cylindrical-rotor machines) H = 2 s to 10 s
– for industrial turbine-generators H = 3 s to 4 s
Example:
fN = 50 Hz
H=3s
Case 1: ∆P/SN = 0.12
Case 2: ∆P/SN = 0.48
Case 1: df/dt = –1 Hz/s
Case 2: df/dt = –4 Hz/s
The default settings are based on the above example. The four stages have been set
symmetrically.
Delay Times The delay time should be set to zero wherever the protection function is supposed to
respond very quickly. This will be the case with high setting values. For the monitoring
of small changes (< 1Hz/s), on the other hand, a small delay time can be useful to
avoid overfunctioning. The delay time is set at address 4504 T df1/dt, and the time
set there is added to the protection operating time.
Release by the The parameter df1/dt & f1 (address 4505) is used to set the release of the stage
Frequency from a certain frequency threshold on. For this the pertinent frequency stage of the fre-
Protection quency protection (Section 2.21) is queried. In the setting example this is stage f1. To
exclude coupling of the two functions, the parameter can be set to OFF (default set-
ting).
Advanced The advanced parameters allow to set for two stages each (e.g. df1/dt and df2/dt) the
Parameters dropout difference and the measuring window. These parameters can only be set with
the DIGSI communication software.
Setting changes are necessary e.g. to obtain a great dropout difference. For the de-
tection of very small frequency changes (<0.5 Hz/s), the default setting of the measur-
ing window should be extended to improve the measuring accuracy.

General It is not uncommon that consumers with their own generating plant feed power directly
into a network. The incoming feeder is usually the ownership boundary between the
utility and these consumers/producers. A failure of the input line, e.g. because of a
three-pole automatic reclosure, can cause a deviation of the voltage or frequency at
the feeding generator which is a function of the overall output. When the incoming
feeder line is switched on again after the dead time, it may meet with asynchronous
conditions which cause damage to the generator or the gear train between generator
and drive.
One criterion for identifying an interruption of the incoming feeder is the monitoring of
the phase angle in the voltage. In case of a failure of the incoming feeder, the abrupt
current interruption causes a phase angle jump in the voltage. This jump is detected
by means of a delta process. As soon as a preset threshold is exceeded, an opening
command for the generator or bustie coupler circuit-breaker is issued.
This means that the vector jump function is mainly used for network decoupling.
Figure 2-79 shows the evolution of the frequency when a load is disconnected from a
generator. Opening of the generator circuit breaker causes a phase angle jump that
can be observed in the frequency measurement as a frequency jump. The generator
is accelerated in accordance with the power system conditions (see also Section 2.24
Rate-of-Frequency-Change Protection).

Measuring The vector of the positive sequence system voltage is calculated from the phase-to-
Principle earth voltages, and the phase angle change of the voltage vector is determined over
a delta interval of 2 cycles. The presence of a phase angle jump is an indicator for an
abrupt change of the current flow. The basic principle is shown in Figure 2-80. The di-
agram on the left shows a steady state, and the diagram on the right the vector change
following a load shedding. The vector jump is clearly visible.

Logic Figure 2-81 shows the logic diagram. The phase angle comparison determines the an-
gle difference, and compares it with the set value. If this value is exceeded, the vector
jump is stored in an RS flip-flop. Tripping can be delayed by the associated time delay.
The stored pickup can be reset via a binary input, or automatically by a timer (address
4604 T RESET).
The vector jump function becomes ineffective on leaving the permissible frequency
band. The same is true for the voltage, for which the limiting parameters are U MIN
and U MAX.
On violation of the frequency or voltage band, the logic generates a logical “1”, and the
reset input is continuously active. The result of the vector jump measurement is sup-
pressed. If, for instance, the voltage is connected, and the frequency band is correct,
the logical “1” changes to “0”. The timer T BLOCK with reset delay keeps the reset in-
put active for a certain time, and thus prevents a pickup caused by the vector jump
function.
If a short-circuit causes the voltage to drop abruptly to a low value, the reset input is
immediately activated to block the function. The vector jump function is thus prevented
from causing a trip.

General The vector jump function is only effective and accessible if address 0146 VECTOR
JUMP has been set to Enabled during configuration.
Address 4601 VECTOR JUMP is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block
only the trip command (Block relay).
Pickup Values The value to be set for the vector jump (address 4602 DELTA PHI) depends on the
feeding and load conditions. Abrupt load changes in the active power cause a jump of
the voltage vector. The value to be set must be specifically determined for the power
system considered. This can be done on the basis of the equivalent circuit diagram in
Figure 2-80, or by means of a network calculation software.
If the setting is too sensitive, the protection function is likely to perform a network de-
coupling every time loads are connected or disconnected. Therefore, the default set-
ting is 10°.
The permissible voltage operating range can be set in the addresses 4605A for U MIN
and 4606A for U MAX. The limit values of the setting range are to some extent a matter
of the utility’s philosophy. The value for U MIN should be less than the permissible
level of short voltage dips for which network decoupling is required. The default setting
is 80 % of the rated voltage. U MAX should be the maximum permissible voltage. This
will be in most cases 130 % of the rated voltage.
Time Delays The time delay T DELTA PHI (address 4603) should be left at zero, except if you
wish to transmit the trip indication with a delay to a logic (CFC), or to leave enough
time for an external blocking to take effect.
After expiry of the timer T RESET (address 4604), the protection function is automat-
ically reset. The reset time depends on the decoupling philosophy. It must have ex-
pired before the circuit breaker is reclosed. Where the automatic reset function is not
used, the timer is set to ∞. The reset signal must come in that case from the binary
input (circuit breaker auxiliary contact).
The timer T BLOCK with reset delay (address 4607A) helps to avoid overfunctioning
when voltages are connected or disconnected. Normally, the default setting need not
be changed. If changes are necessary, they can be performed with the DIGSI commu-
nication software (advanced parameters). It must be kept in mind that T BLOCK should
always be set to more than the measuring window for vector jump measurement (2
cycles).

General The stator earth fault protection detects earth faults in the stator windings of three-
phase machines. The machine can be operated in busbar connection (directly
connected to the network) or in unit connection (via unit transformer). The criterion for
the occurrence of an earth fault is mainly the occurrence of a neutral displacement
voltage. This principle results in a protected zone of 90 % to 95 % of the stator winding.
Displacement The displacement voltage UE can be measured either at the machine starpoint via
Voltage voltage transformers or neutral earthing transformers (Figure 2-82) or via the e-n
winding (broken delta winding) of a voltage transformer set or the measurement
winding of a line connected earthing transformer (Figure 2-83). Since the neutral
earthing transformer or the line connected earthing transformer usually supply a
displacement voltage of 500 V (with full displacement), a voltage divider 500 V/100 V
is to be connected in such cases.
If the displacement voltage can not be directly applied to the device, the device
calculates the displacement voltage from the phase-to-ground voltages.
Address 0223 UE CONNECTION serves for specifying the way the displacement
voltage is to be measured or calculated.
In all kinds of displacement voltage formation, the components of the third harmonic
in each phase are summed since they are in phase in the three-phase system. In order
to obtain reliable measured quantities, only the fundamental of the displacement
voltage is evaluated in the stator earth fault protection. Harmonics are filtered out by
numerical filter algorithms.
For machines in unit connection the evaluation of the displacement voltage is
sufficient. The achieved sensitivity of the protection is only limited by power frequency
interference voltages during an earth fault in the network. These interference voltages
are transferred to the machine side via the coupling capacitances of the unit
transformer. If necessary, a loading resistor can be provided to reduce these
interference voltages. The protection initiates disconnection of the machine when an
earth fault in the machine zone has been present for a set time.

Earth Current For machines in busbar connection, it is not possible to differentiate between a
Direction Detection network earth fault or a machine earth fault by the displacement voltage alone. In this
case the earth fault current is used as a further criterion, and the displacement voltage
as a necessary release condition.
To achieve the necessary sensitivity, the earth fault current is measured using a
toroidal current transformer or a set of CTs in Holmgreen connection. During a
network earth fault, the machine supplies only a negligible earth fault current across
the measurement location, which must be situated between the machine and the
network. During a machine earth fault, the earth fault current of the network is
available. However, since the network conditions generally vary according to the
switching status of the network, a loading resistor, which supplies an increased earth
fault current on the occurrence of a displacement voltage, is used in order to obtain
definite measurement conditions independent of the switching status of the network.
The earth fault current produced by the loading resistor must always flow across the
measurement location.

IEE2 UE
7UM62
Consequently, the loading resistor must be situated on the other side of the
measurement location (current transformer, toroidal current transformer) when viewed
from the machine. The earthing transformer is usually connected to the busbar. Apart
from the magnitude of the earth fault current, the direction of this current in relation to
the displacement voltage can be used for the safe recognition of a machine earth fault
in the case of bus-bar connection. The directional border between “machine direction”
and “network direction” can be altered in the 7UM62 (refer to Figure 2-85). The
protection feature detects a machine earth fault if all three of the following two criteria
met:
− Displacement voltage larger than set value U0>,
− Earth fault current across the measurement location larger than set value 3I0>,
− Earth fault current is flowing in the direction of the protected machine.

Figure 2-85 Characteristic of Directional Stator Earth Fault Protection for Busbar Connection
On the occurrence of earth fault in the machine zone, the disconnection of the
machine is initiated after a set delay time.
When the earth current is not decisive to detect an earth fault, e.g. because the circuit
breaker is open, the earth current detection can be switched off by a control signal via
a binary input of the relay. During this time, the displacement voltage stage is fully
operative as the only earth fault protection (e.g. during run-up of the machine).
Figure 2-87 shows the logic diagram of the stator earth fault protection.
If the stator earth fault protection is used as directional busbar connection protection,
this feature is assigned to the sensitive current measuring input of the 7UM62 device.
The user must be aware that the sensitive earth fault detection can use the same
measuring input (if IEE2 has been configured) and thus the same measuring quantity.
For this reason, two additional, independent pickup thresholds Iee> and Iee>> could
be formed for this measuring quantity by means of the sensitive earth fault detection
(see section 2.27). If the user does not desire this, he should remove the sensitive
earth fault configuration at address 0151, or use it with IEE1.
If the rotor earth fault protection (see Section 2.30) is used, it occupies the additional
voltage input; the displacement voltage U0 for the stator earth fault protection is
therefore calculated from the phase-earth voltages in that case.
Earth Fault In the industrial sector, busbar systems are implemented with high- or low-resistance,
Detection switchable starpoint resistances. For earth-fault detection, the starpoint current and
(Earth Differential the total current are detected via toroidal current transformers and transmitted to the
Protection with protective relay as current difference. In this way, both the earth current portion

Voltage) operation due to transformer faults, the displacement voltage is used for tripping (see
figure 2-86). The protection feature detects a machine earth fault if the following two
criteria are fulfilled:
− Displacement voltage larger than set value U0>,
− Earth fault current difference ∆IE higher than setting value 3I0>,

Determination of In addition to this, a supplementary function serves to determine the faulty phase. As
the Faulty Phase the phase-earth-voltage in the faulty phase is less than in the two remaining phases
and as the voltage even increases in the latter ones, the faulty phase can be
determined by determining the smallest phase-earth voltage in order to generate a
corresponding result as fault message.

General The 90% stator earth fault protection is only effective and accessible if it has been set
during the configuration of the protection functions at address 0150 S/E/F PROT. =
directional; non-dir. U0 or non-dir. U0&I0. If non–dir. U0 was
selected, the parameters concerning the earth current are ineffective. If one of the
options directional or non–dir. U0&I0 was selected, the parameters
concerning the earth current are accessible. For machines in busbar connection, one
of the latter options must set as a differentiation between the power system earth fault
and the machine earth fault is only possible by way of the earth current. If the 90%
stator earth fault protection is used as ”earth differential protection”, address 0150
S/E/F PROT. = non-dir. U0&I0 is selected. Set Disabled if the function is not
required. Address 5001 S/E/F PROT. is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to
block only the trip command (Block Relay).
Displacement The criterion for the inception of an earth fault in the stator circuit is the occurrence of
Voltage a neutral displacement voltage. Exceeding the setting value 5002 U0> therefore
represents the pickup for this protection.
The setting must be chosen such that the protection does not pick up during
operational asymmetries. This is particularly important for machines in busbar
connection since all voltage asymmetries of the network affect the voltage system of
the machine. The pickup value should be at least twice the value of the operational
asymmetry. A value of 5% to 10% of the full displacement value is normal.
For machines in unit connection, the pickup value has to be chosen such that
displacements during network earth faults which are transferred via the coupling
capacitances of the unit transformer to the stator circuit, do not lead to pickup. The
damping effect of the loading resistor must also be considered in this case.
Instructions for the dimensioning of the earth current transformer and the loading
resistor are contained in the pamphlet “Planning Machine Protection Systems”, Order
No. E50400-U0089-U412-A1-7600. The setting value is twice the displacement value
which is coupled in at full network displacement. The setting value is finally determined
during commissioning with primary values according to section 3.4.6.1.
Delays The stator earth fault trip is delayed by the time set under address 5005 T S/E/F.
When setting the delay time, the overload capability of the loading equipment must be
considered. All set times are additional delay times and do not include operating times
(measurement times, reset times) of the protection function itself.
Earth Current Addresses 5003 and 5004 are only of importance for machines in busbar connection,
0150 S/E/F PROT. = directional or non–dir. U0&I0 has been set. The
following considerations are not applicable for machines in unit connection.
The pickup value 5003 3I0> is set such that for an earth fault in the protected zone,
the earth current safely exceeds the setting.
Since the residual earth current in a compensated network is very small, an earthing
transformer with an ohmic loading resistor is normally provided to increase the
residual wattmetric current in the event of an earth fault. This arrangement also makes
the protection independent of network conditions. Instructions for the dimensioning of
the earth current transformer and the loading resistor are contained in the pamphlet
“Planning Machine Protection Systems”, Order No. E50400-U0089-U412-A1-7600.
Since the magnitude of earth fault current in this case is determined mainly by the
loading resistor, a small angle is set for 5004 DIR. ANGLE, e.g. 15°. If the network
capacitances in an isolated network are also to be considered, then a larger angle
(approx. 45°) can be set which corresponds to the superimposition of the capacitance
network current onto the loading current.
The directional angle 5004 DIR. ANGLE indicates the phase displacement between
the neutral displacement voltage and the perpendicular to the directional characteristic
(Figure 2-85), i.e. it is equal to the inclination of the directional characteristic to the
reactive axis.
If, in an isolated network, the capacitances to earth of the network are mainly decisive
for the earth fault protection, it is also possible to work without earthing transformer. In
this case, the angle is set to approximately 90° (corresponding to sin ϕ switching).

I EE sec = ------------------------- = ----------------- = 115 mA

For a protected zone of 90 %, the protection should already operate at 1/10 of the full
displacement voltage, whereby only 1/10 of the earth fault current is generated
115 mA
Setting 3I0> = -------------------- = 11.5 mA

In this example 3I0> is set to 11 mA. For the displacement voltage setting, 1/10 of the
full displacement voltage is used (because of the 90% protected zone). Considering a
voltage divider of 500 V/100 V, this results in:
Setting value U0> = 10 V
The time delay must lie below the 50 A capability time of the loading resistor, i.e. below
20 s. The overload capability of the earthing transformer must also be considered if it
lies below that of the loading resistor.
General The highly sensitive earth fault protection has the task to detect earth fault in systems
with isolated or high-impedance earthed star-point. The pick-up criterion is the
magnitude of the (residual) earth current. The magnitude of the residual current allows
earth fault detection, for example, on electrical machines which are directly connected
to the busbar of an isolated power system, when in case of a network earth fault the
machine supplies only a negligible earth fault current across the measurement
location, which must be situated between the machine terminals and the network,
whereas in case of a machine earth fault the higher earth fault current produced by the
total network is available. The measured current may be derived from toroidal CTs or
CTs in Holmgreen connection.
In the 7UM62, the sensitive earth fault detection feature can be allocated to either
input IEE1 or IEE2. This choice is made during configuration (see Section 2.2).
This protection is not suited for detection of high earth currents which may arise in
case of earthed system starpoints (higher than approx. 1 A at the relay terminals for
highly sensitive earth current protection). If this protection feature nevertheless shall
be used as short-circuit to earth protection, an additional, external current transformer
is required as intermediate transformer.
Note: The sensitive earth current protection as well as for the directional or non–
directional stator earth fault protection of busbar-connected machines may use the
same current measuring input (IEE2). That means that both protection functions use
identical input currents if address 0150 S/E/F PROT. is set to directional or
non-dir. U0&I0.
Application as Alternatively, this protection can be used as rotor earth fault protection when a system
Rotor Earth Fault frequency bias voltage is applied to the rotor circuit (refer to Figure 2-88). In this case,
Protection the measured current is determined by the magnitude of the bias voltage UV and the
capacitance of the coupling capacitors of the rotor circuit.
A measured value supervision is provided for the application as rotor earth fault
protection: The measurement circuit is assumed to be closed as long as a small earth
current IEE< is flowing which is determined by the rotor-earth capacitance. If not, an
alarm is issued after a short delay time of 2 s.
Measuring Initially, the residual current is numerically filtered so that only the fundamental wave
Procedure of the current is used for the measurement. This makes the measurement insensitive
to transient conditions at the inception of a short-circuit and to harmonics content in
the current.
The protection consists of two stages. A pickup is detected as soon as the first
parameterized threshold value IEE> is exceeded. The trip command is transmitted
subsequent to the T IEE> delay time. A pickup is detected as soon as the second
parameterized threshold value IEE>> is exceeded. The trip command is transmitted
subsequent to the T IEE>> delay time.
Both stages can be blocked via a binary input.

Iee> = with Iee1 or with Iee2. If one of the options with current evaluation was
selected during the configuration of the 90–%–stator earth fault protection (0150 S/
E/F PROT., see Section 2.2) the sensitive current measuring input of the 7UM62 is
assigned to this feature. The user must be aware that the sensitive earth fault
detection possibly uses the same measuring input (IEE2) and thus the same
measuring quantity. If the sensitive earth fault detection is not required, this parameter
is set to Disabled. Address 5101 O/C PROT. Iee> is used to switch the function
ON or OFF, or to block only the trip command (Block Relay).
Use as Rotor Earth The highly sensitive earth current protection can be used to detects earth fault either
Fault Protection in the stator or in the rotor winding of the machine. A precondition is that the magnitude
of the measured current is a sufficient criterion. When the protected winding is isolated
or high-resistance earthed, sufficient magnitude of the earth current must be
produced. When, for example, used as rotor earth fault protection, a system frequency
bias voltage (UV ≈ 42 V must be applied to the rotor circuit by means of the 7XR61
series device in Figure 2-88). In this case, the measured current is determined by the
magnitude of the bias voltage and the capacitance of the coupling capacitors of the
rotor circuit, which can be measured in order to ensure a closed measuring circuit
(address 5106 IEE<). Approximately 2 mA is a typical pickup value. The monitoring
stage is ineffective is this value is set to 0. This can become necessary if the earth
capacitances are too small.

in the pamphlet “Planning Machine Protection Systems”, Order No. E50400-U0089-
U412-A1-7600.
Use as Earth Short- For low-voltage machines with neutral conductor incorporated in cables or machines
Circuit Protection with low-impedance earthed starpoint, the time-overcurrent protection of the phase
branches already is a short-circuit to earth protection, as the short-circuit to earth
current also flows through the faulty phase. If the sensitive earth current detection
nevertheless shall be used as short-circuit to earth protection, an external
intermediate transformer must be used to ensure that the short-circuit current does not
exceed the thermal limit values (15 A continuous, 100 A for < 10 s, 300 A for < 1 s) of
this measuring input.
General As described in section 2.26, the measuring procedure based on the fundamental
wave of the displacement voltage serves to protect maximally 90 % to 95 % of the
stator winding. A non-line-frequent voltage must be used to implement a 100 %
protection range. With the 7UM62 device, the 3rd harmonic is used for this purpose.
The 3rd harmonic is created in each machine in a more or less significant way. It is
provoked by the shape of the poles. If an earth fault occurs in the generator stator
winding, the division ratio of the parasitic capacitances changes, as one of the
capacitances was short-circuited by the earth fault. During this procedure, the 3rd
harmonic measured in the starpoint decreases, whereas the 3rd harmonic measured
at the generator terminals increases (see figure 2-90). The 3rd harmonic forms a zero
phase-sequence system and can thus also be determined by means of the voltage
transformer switched in star/delta or by calculating the zero phase-sequence system
from the phase-earth-voltages.

Moreover, the level of the 3rd harmonic depends on the operating point of the
generator, i.e. a function of the P active power and the Q reactive power. For this
reason, the working area of the stator earth fault protection is restricted in order to
enhance security.
In case of a busbar connection, all machines contribute to the 3rd harmonic, which
impedes the separation of the individual machines.
Measuring The level of the 3rd harmonic in the measuring quantity is the pickup criterion. The 3rd
Principle harmonic is determined from the displacement voltage measured during two cycles by
means of digital filtering.
Different measuring procedures are applied, depending on whether the displacement
voltage is detected or not (project configuration parameter 0223 UE CONNECTION):
Ue Connected to As an earth fault in the starpoint causes a reduction of the measured 3rd harmonic
Neutral compared with the faulty case, the protective function is implemented as undervoltage

Ue Connected to If no neutral transformer exists, the protective function is based on the zero

calculated quantities are used and the parameter must be set to not connected.

be used for measuring any other voltage instead of using it for earth fault protection.
In this case the function 100–%–stator earth fault protection is blocked. The option Ue

shall be fed in at this input. In this case the function 100–%–stator earth fault protection

The option Ue connected to loading resistor is for the 100–%–stator earth

Pickup Value for Depending on the selection of the connection type, only one of the two setting

within the framework of a primary test. The following principle is generally valid:
− The 5202 U0 3.HARM< undervoltage stage is relevant for a connection to a
transformer in the starpoint. The pickup value should be chosen as low as possible.
− The 5203 U0 3.HARM> overvoltage stage is relevant for a connection via the
broken delta winding of an earthing transformer and for a not connected, but
internally calculated displacement voltage.
Working Area Due to the strong dependency of the measurable 3rd harmonic from the correspond-
ing working point of the generator, the working area of the 100–%–stator earth fault
protection is only tripped above the active-power threshold set via 5205 P min >
and on exceeding a minimum positive phase-sequence voltage 5206 U1 min >.

2.28.2.2 Information for the 100–% Stator Earth Fault Protection with 3rd Harmonics
General The 100-% stator earth fault protection detects earth faults in the stator windings of
generators which are connected with the network via a unit transformer. This protec-
tion function, which works with an injected 20 Hz voltage, is independent of the sys-
tem-frequency displacement voltage appearing in earth faults, and detects earth faults
in all windings including the machine starpoint. The measuring principle used is not
influenced at all by the generator operating mode and allows to perform measure-
ments even with the generator standing still. The two measuring principles used –
measurement of the displacement voltage (see Section 2.26) and evaluation of the
measured quantities at an injected 20 Hz voltage – allow to implement reliable protec-
tion concepts that complement one another.
If an earth fault in the generator starpoint or close to the starpoint is not detected, the
generator is running with an “earthing”. A subsequent fault (e.g. a second earth fault)
causes a single-pole short-circuit that may have an extremely high fault current be-
cause the generator zero impedance is very small.
A 100 % stator earth fault protection is therefore a basic function for large generators.
Basic Principle Figure 2-92 shows the basic protection principle. An external low-frequency alternat-
ing voltage source (20 Hz) injects into the generator starpoint a voltage of max. 1 %
of the rated generator voltage. If an earth fault occurs in the generator starpoint, the
20 Hz voltage drives a current through the fault resistance. From the driving voltage
and the fault current, the protective relay determines the fault resistance. The protec-
tion principle described here also detects earth faults at the generator terminals, in-
cluding connected components such as voltage transformers.

Figure 2-92 Basic Principle of Voltage Injection into the Generator Starpoint
Circuit Design To implement the above concept, some additional equipment is required. Figure 2-93
shows that a 20 Hz generator generates a square-wave voltage with an amplitude of
approx. 25 V. This square-wave voltage is fed via a band pass into the loading resistor
of the earthing or neutral transformer. The band pass serves for rounding the square-
wave voltage and for storing energy. The 20 Hz resistance of the band pass is approx.
8 Ω. The band pass has also a protection function. If the load resistor carries the full
displacement voltage in case of a terminal-to-earth fault, the higher series resistance
of the band pass protects the 20 Hz generator from high feedback currents.
The driving 20 Hz voltage is picked up directly at the loading resistor via a voltage di-
vider. In addition, the 20 Hz current flow is measured via a miniature CT. Both quanti-
ties (USEF and ISEF) are fed to the protection device.
The voltage to be injected into the generator starpoint depends on the driving 20 Hz
voltage (voltage divider: load resistor and band pass), and on the transformation ratio
of the neutral or earthing transformer.
To prevent the secondary load resistance from becoming too small (it should be > 0.5
Ω, where possible), a high secondary rated voltage should be chosen for the earthing
or neutral transformer. 500 V has proven to be a good value.

former or Neutral Transformer (see also Figure A-43 in the Appendix).
The same measuring principle can also be used with a primary loading resistor. The
20 Hz voltage is connected in this case via a voltage transformer, and the starpoint
current is directly measured. The connection scheme, and hints on circuit design, can
be found in the Appendix A.5 (Figure A-43).
Measuring From the two measured quantities USEF and ISEF in Figure 2-93, the 20 Hz current and
Procedure voltage vectors are calculated, and from the resulting complex impedance the ohmic
fault resistance is determined. This method eliminates disturbances caused by the
stator earth capacitance, and ensures a high sensitivity. The measuring accuracy is
further increased by using mean current and voltage values obtained over several cy-
cles for calculating the resistance.
The model takes into account a transfer resistance RPS that may be present at the
neutral, earthing or voltage transformer. Other error factors are taken into account in
the angle error.
In addition to the determination of the earth resistance, the protection function features
an earth current stage which processes the current r.m.s. value and thus takes into
account all frequencies. It is used as a backup stage and covers approx. 80 to 90 %
of the protection zone.
A monitoring circuit checks the coupled external 20 Hz voltage and the 20 Hz current
and detects by evaluating them a failure of the 20 Hz generator or of the 20 Hz con-
nection. In case of a failure, the resistance determination is blocked. The earth current
stage remains active.

General The 100-% stator earth fault protection is only effective and accessible if it has been
set to Enabled at address 0153 100% SEF-PROT. during the configuration of the
protection functions. In addition, the function requires the following settings to be
made in Power System Data 1:
− Address 0275: FACTOR R SEF; Sets the resistance transformation ratio (see side
title “Fault Resistances”)
− Address 223: UE CONNECTION should be set to Load. resistor for this application.
The 20 Hz voltage is in this case picked up at the UE input, and the displacement
voltage for the 90-% stator earth fault protection (SEF) is calculated from the phase-
to-earth voltages. If the measured voltage (input UE is to be used for the 90-% SEF
as well, the address should be set to neutr. transf. or broken delta.
Address 5301 100% SEF-PROT. is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block
only the trip command (Block relay).
Fault Resistances The final setting values are determined in the primary test as described in Section 3.3.
Please note that the protection calculates the earth resistance from the secondary val-
ues USEF and ISEF which are present at the device terminals. The association between
this calculated value and the actual (primary) stator earth resistance is determined by
the transformation ratio of the earthing and the neutral transformer. For the overall
transformation, the following formula applies:
1 ü MinCT

This formula is true only for nearly ideal earthing or neutral transformers. If necessary,
the measuring result from the primary tests must be set as FACTOR R SEF. For this
the fed fault resistance (trip stage) is put into relation with the secondary fault resis-
tance.
The primary fault resistance should be set to 1 to 2 kΩ for the trip stage and to approx.
3 to 8 kΩ for the alarm stage. The default times have proven to be good values.

If for the trip stage R<< a generator-side fault resistance of 1000 Ω is chosen, a resis-
tance of R<< SEF TRIP = 1000 Ω/8.33 = 120 Ω is set at address 5303. For the warn-
ing stage, a primary resistance of 3 kΩ yields a setting value of R< SEF ALARM = 360
Ω.
Earth Current Stage The earth current stage has a backup protection function. It is set to a protected zone
of approx. 80 %. Referenced to the maximum secondary fault current, the pickup
threshold is at approx. 20 %, and the setting value is calculated as follows:

SEF100 I>> = 0.2 ⋅ ---------------- ⋅ ------------------- = 0.2 ⋅ ---------------- ⋅ ---------------- = 0.25 A

The delay time T SEF TRIP (address 5305), which is also relevant for the earth cur-
rent stage, must be less than the 50 A capability time of the loading resistor (in this
example 50 A for 20 s). The overload capability of the earthing or neutral transformer
must also be considered if it lies below that of the loading resistor.
Monitoring At the addresses 5307, 5308 the monitoring thresholds are set with U20 MIN and
I20 MIN. If the 20 Hz voltage drops below the pickup value without the 20 Hz current
rising, there must be a problem of the 20 Hz connection. The default settings will be
adequate for most applications. Where the loading resistor is less than 1 Ω, the volt-
age threshold U20 MIN must be reduced to 0.5 V. The current threshold I20 MIN
can be left at 10 mA.
Correction Angle, The parameter PHI I SEF (default setting 0°) of address 5309 is used to compen-
Contact Resistance sate the angle error of the CTs and angle distortions caused by a less than ideal earth-
ing or neutral transformer. The correct setting for this parameter can only be deter-
mined with a primary test. The adjustment should be made for the tripping value.
The same is true for the transfer resistance of the earthing or neutral transformer. This
advanced parameter can be set with the DIGSI communication software (not possible
in local operation). As this resistance is normally negligible, a default setting SEF Rps
= 0 Ω has been chosen for address 5310A. However, the transfer resistance of the
voltage transformer is no longer negligible if the 20 Hz voltage is fed to a primary-side
loading resistor via a voltage transformer.
In large power units with generator circuit breaker, applications can be found where
there is some additional loading equipment on the low-voltage side of the unit trans-
former to reduce the influence by the zero voltage when the generator circuit breaker
is open. The 20 Hz source is connected via the neutral transformer in the generator
starpoint. With the generator circuit breaker closed, the protection measures the load-
ing resistance on the unit transformer side, which can be mistaken for an earth resis-
tance. The advanced parameter address 5311A allows to set this additional loading
resistance. The default setting for Rl-PARALLEL is ∞. No additional loading resis-
tance is assumed.

General Rotor earth fault protection is used to detect earth faults in the excitation circuit of
synchronous machines. One earth fault in the rotor winding does not cause immediate
damage; however, if a second earth fault occurs, then this represents a winding short-
circuit of the excitation circuit. Magnetic unbalances can occur resulting in extreme
mechanical forces which can lead to the destruction of the machine.
Measuring Proce- The rotor earth fault protection in the 7UM62 uses an external auxiliary voltage of ap-
dure proximately 36 to 45 V AC, which can be taken from the voltage transformers via a
coupling unit 7XR6100-0*A00. This voltage is symmetrically coupled to the excitation
circuit via the capacitors of the coupling unit and simultaneously connected to the
measurement input of the 7UM62. The capacitors CK of the 7XR6100 coupling unit are
protected by series resistors Rseries and - in case high harmonics content is expected
in the excitation circuit (e.g. excitation by thyristor circuits) - by an additional filter
choke (for a connection example with terminal assignment see Figure A-31 in Appen-
dix A.4).
The auxiliary AC voltage drives a small charging current through the coupling unit,
brush resistance and capacitance to earth of the excitation circuit. This current IRE
amounts to only a few mA during normal operation and is measured by the device
(Figure 2-95).

The rotor earth fault calculation calculates the complex earth impedance from the aux-
iliary AC voltage URE and the current IRE. The earth resistance RE of the excitation
circuit is then calculated from the earth impedance. The device also considers the cou-
pling capacitance of the coupling unit CK, the series (e.g. brush) resistance Rseries and
the capacitance to the earth excitation circuit CE. This method ensures that even rel-
atively high-ohmic earth faults (up to 30 kΩ under ideal conditions) can be detected.
In order to eliminate the influence of harmonics - such as occur in static excitation
equipment (thyristors or rotating rectifiers) - the measured quantities are filtered prior
to their evaluation.
The earth resistance supervision has two stages. Usually an alarm is initiated if the
earth resistance falls below an initial high-resistance stage (e.g. 5 kΩ to 10 kΩ). If the
value falls below the second low-resistance stage (e.g. 2 kΩ to 5 kΩ), tripping will be
initiated after a short time delay. The dropout threshold is defined for both stages as
125 % of the set value.
Note: The rotor earth fault protection uses for the detection of the voltage URE the UE
voltage input of the device. Therefore, the displacement voltage U0 for the 90–% stator
earth fault protection (see Section 2.26) is in that case calculated from the phase-to-
earth voltages.
Measuring Circuit Since a current flows even during healthy operation, namely the capacitive charging
Supervision current of CE, the protection can recognize and alarm an interruption in the measure-
ment circuit, provided the capacitance to earth is at least 0.15 µF.
Stabilization of the If the measuring current IRE exceed an internal predetermined value (100 mA), a low-
Resistance Mea- ohmic earth fault (RE ≈ 0) is detected regardless of the calculated resistance. If this
surement current drops below the internal predetermined value of 0.3 mA, RE → ∞ is detected
regardless of the calculated resistance.

General The rotor earth fault protection is only effective and accessible if it has been set during
the configuration of the protective functions at address 0160 ROTOR E/F = Enabled.
Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address 6001 ROTOR E/F is used to
switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip command (Block relay for
trip commands).
Also, configuration parameter 0223 UE CONNECTION must be set to
UE connected to Rotor. If it is not, a voltage URE = 0 is displayed and evaluated,
so that the protection remains blocked.
Pick-Up Values Since the protection calculates the ohmic rotor-earth resistance from the values
caused by the applied bias voltage, the thresholds for the warning stage
(6002 RE< WARN) and for the trip stage (6003 RE<< TRIP) can be set directly as
resistance values. The default settings are sufficient for the majority of cases. These
values can be changed depending on the insulation resistance and the coolant. Care
must be taken to allow a sufficient margin between the setting value and the actual
insulation resistance.
Delays The time delay for the warning stage 6004 T-WARN-RE< is usually set to
approximately 10 s, and the delay for the trip stage 6005 T-TRIP-RE<< to
approximately 0.5 s. The set times are additional time delays not including the
operating times (measuring time, drop-out time) of the protective function.

The series resistors Rpre for the protection of the coupling capacitors can be
considered with the total series resistance (address 6007) since the brush resistance
and the series resistance are connected in series in the measurement circuit. The
resultant resistance applies for R SERIES, i.e. the parallel connection in each case of
the series resistors Rpre and for the resistance of the two brushes. Similarly, the
coupling reactance is calculated from the parallel connection of the two coupling
capacitors CK.
In some cases, the inductor integrated in the 7XR6100 is included in the coupling
circuit to reduce very high harmonics content of the excitation voltage. This forms,
together with the coupling capacitance, a band pass for the system frequency. In
these cases, it must be considered that the reactance must not become less than
–100 Ω (lower threshold of setting 6006 X COUPLING).
Angle Error Coupling reactance and series resistance can be measured by the protection itself
Correction during commissioning (see Section 3.3.7). It may be advantageous to compensate for
the angle error of the input CTs of the relay in order to increase accuracy. This can be
done at address 6009 PHI I RE. Thus, if the warning stage in particular does not
pick up during testing at the expected insulation resistance level, you should check
and correct the correction angle and the coupling reactance (see also Section 3.3.7).
The values calculated and displayed by the relay may become negative due to CT
angle errors, wrong settings of the coupling impedance or malfunctions of the
excitation equipment. In that case, a check is performed whether the current IRE > is
more than 7 mA, in which case a tripping decision is made. If the current is < 7 mA,
the measurement is marked as invalid, and the rotor earth resistance RRotor ∞ is
displayed. This additional consistency check ensures that even if the setting of the
correction angle or the coupling impedance is wrong, tripping in case of low-resistance
earth faults is ensured although the warning stage may not pick up correctly.
Measuring Circuit If a sufficiently high rotor capacitance (CE ≥ 0.15 µF) is available, an interruption in the
Monitoring measurement circuit can also be recognized. A measurement circuit interruption is
assumed when the voltage drops below the threshold set at address 6008 I RE<,
and the voltage UV is at the same time above 25 V. The alarm is reset when the current
is 0.5 mA or 20 % above the setting value, or when the voltage falls below 20 V. If
I RE< is set to 0.0 mA, there is no current monitoring and no alarm.

General The rotor earth fault protection has the task to detect high- or low-resistance earth
faults in the excitation circuit of synchronous generators. Although an earth fault in the
excitation winding does not cause immediate damage, a second earth fault will lead
to a turn-to-turn fault in the excitation winding. The resulting magnetic unbalances can
develop extreme mechanical forces, which may destroy the machine.
The protection function described here differs from the function described in Section
2.30 in that it is far more sensitive; it is used for large generators.
Basic Principle As Figure 2-98 shows, the rotor earth fault protection works with a direct voltage of ap-
prox. 50 V, the polarity of which is reversed between 1 and 4 times per second, de-
pending on the setting. This voltage Ug injected into the rotor circuit is generated in the
7XT71 controller unit. The voltage passes through a resistor unit 7XR6004 (or
7XR6003) and is symmetrically coupled to the excitation circuit via high-resistance re-
sistors, and at the same time connected to the earthing brush (potential to earth) via
a low-resistance measuring shunt RM (see also Appendix, Figure A-36). The voltage
picked up at the measuring shunt and the control voltage are fed into the protection
device via measuring transducers. The control voltage is proportional to the injected
50 V voltage Ug in terms of amplitude and frequency. The earth current flowing in the
rotor is modeled by the measurement voltage.
Every time the polarity of the direct voltage Ug is reversed, a charging current Ig is driv-
en across the resistor unit into the rotor-earth capacitors of the excitation circuit. This
current causes a proportional voltage drop UMeas. Once the rotor earth capacitors are
charged, the charging current drops to zero. In the presence of a rotor earth fault, a
continuous earth current flows whose intensity is determined by the fault resistance.
The use of a low-frequency square-wave voltage as displacement voltage eliminates
the influence of the rotor-earth capacitors and ensures at the same time a sufficient
margin against interference signals from the interference frequencies of the excitation
system.

Measuring From the control voltage UControl, the function determines the timing for the polarity re-
Procedure versals and triggers the measurement. At the same time it calculates the voltage am-
plitude and converts it to the voltage Ug. The actual fault resistance is determined from
the voltage UMeas, which is proportional to the current Ig. Every time the polarity of the
control voltage is reversed, the DC component of the measurement voltage is deter-
mined by means of a mean value filter. The frequency of the series device must be set
low enough to ensure that during the mean-value generation the rotor-earth capacitors
are charged, so that only the steady-state portion is evaluated. This allows to detect
high-resistance faults (max. approx. 80 kΩ) without being influenced by the earth ca-
pacitance.
However, the measurement is falsified by two sources of interference. One of them is
a DC voltage component in the measurement circuit which depends on the intensity
of the excitation voltage and on the location of the earth fault in the excitation winding,
and the other are considerable high-frequency voltage peaks that may superimpose
the DC excitation voltage. These peaks are damped by a numerical filter.
To eliminate the interference from the superimposed DC voltage component, the po-
larity of the voltage Ug is reversed (square-wave voltage). The measurement voltage
calculation described above is performed for both polarities. On formation of the dif-
ference between two subsequent measurement results for Ig, namely Ig1 and Ig2 (see
Figure 2-99), the DC component originating from the excitation circuit (Ioffset) is elimi-
nated, whereas the DC components originating from the injected voltage Ug accumu-
late.
With the measured quantity thus obtained, and the calculated amount of the displace-
ment voltage Ug, the earth resistance can be calculated, taking into account the series
resistors Rs (see Figure 2-99).

Monitoring On each polarity reversal, the charging current of the rotor earth capacitor is deter-
Functions mined. A drop of this current allows to detect defects in the measurement circuit such
as wire breaks, poor brush contact etc. This is only possible, however, if the rotor-earth
capacitance is high enough (> 0.15 µF) and the interference from the excitation sys-
tem is low.
As an alternative, the protection function offers an external test option using a test re-
sistor (included in the 7XR6004 and 7XR6003). The test mode is activated via a binary
input, and the fault resistor is connected to a slip ring with an external relay. The pro-
tection function must be informed of the pertinent test resistance. The protection func-
tion issues appropriate indications showing the test results. It is also able to detect
one-sided interruptions (such as wire breaks or loose terminals in a coupling (see Fig-
ure 2-98)).

Figure 2-101 Logic Diagram of the Sensitive Rotor Earth Fault Protection
General The sensitive rotor earth fault protection is only effective and accessible if it has been
set to Enabled at address 0161 REF 1-3Hz during the configuration of the protection
functions.
It must also be ensured that the measuring transducer inputs TD1 and TD2 are not
used for any other function.
Address 6101 REF 1-3Hz is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only
the trip command (Block relay).
Pickup Values Since the protection calculates the ohmic rotor-earth resistance from the values sup-
plied by the injected voltage, the series resistance and the flowing earth current, the
thresholds for the warning stage 6102 RE< WARN) and for the trip stage (6103 RE<<
TRIP) can be set directly as resistance values. The default settings (RE< WARN = 40
kΩ and RE<< TRIP = 5 kΩ) are sufficient for the majority of cases. These values can
be changed depending on the insulation resistance and the coolant. Care must be tak-
en to allow a sufficient margin between the setting value and the actual insulation re-
sistance.
As interference from the excitation system cannot be excluded, the setting for the
warning stage is not finally determined until the primary tests.
Time Delays The time delay for the warning stage (6102 T-WARN-RE<) is usually set to approxi-
mately 10 s, and the delay for the trip stage (6103 T-TRIP-RE<<) to approximately
1 s. The set times are additional time delays not including the operating times (mea-
suring time, drop-out time) of the protection function.
Monitoring The setting value of the measuring circuit monitoring (6106 Qc <) is defined during
Functions the primary tests. For this purpose, the operational measured value (Qc) is read out,
and half of the value is set. If the charge measured is too low, the monitoring cannot
be effective. The parameter Qc < should in that case be set to 0 mAs. No fault indi-
cation will be issued.
No settings are required if you want to perform the external test using the test resistor
included in the 7XR6004 (3.3 kΩ). If a different resistor is to be used, its resistance
must be set in the advanced parameter TEST RESISTOR (can only be changed with
the DIGSI communication software) at address 6107A.

General When the 7UM62 relay is used to protect a motor, the starting time monitoring feature
supplements the overload protection described in Section 2.9 by protecting the motor
against the potential damage that might result from frequent starting or extended
starting durations. In particular, rotor-critical high-voltage motors can quickly be
heated above their thermal limits when multiple starting attempts occur in a short
period of time. If the durations of these starting attempts are lengthened by excessive
voltage surges during motor starting, by excessive load moments, or by locked rotor
conditions a tripping signal will be initiated by the device.
The motor starting time monitoring is initiated by the motor starting recognition setting
entered at address 6505 I MOTOR START. This current releases the calculation of
the tripping characteristic.
One characteristic is definite time while the other one is inverse time.
Inverse Time- The inverse time-overcurrent characteristic is designed to operate only when the rotor
Overcurrent is not blocked. The inverse time characteristic allows motor starting time monitoring to
Tripping adjust for those situations where high starting voltages result in decreased starting
Characteristic currents. The tripping time is calculated based on the following formula:
I StartCurrent 2
t TRIP = æ --------------------------------ö ⋅ tStartmax where I > IMotor Start
è I ø
where tTRIP – Actual tripping time for flowing current I
tStartmax – Tripping time for nominal start-up current IA (set at address 6503,
STARTING TIME)
I – Current actually flowing (measured value)
IStartCurr. – Nominal starting current of the motor (set at address 6502,
START. CURRENT)
IMotorStart – Pickup value for recognition of motor starting (set at address
6505, I MOTOR START)

Figure 2-102 Inverse Time Characteristic Tripping Curve for Motor Starting Current
Therefore, if the starting current I actually measured is smaller (or larger) than the
nominal starting current IA entered at address START. CURRENT), the actual tripping
time ttrip is lengthened (or shortened) accordingly (see also Figure 2-102).
Definite-Time During motor starting, the definite time characteristic is designed to initiate a trip if the
Overcurrent motor starting time exceeds the maximum allowable blocked rotor time tE. The device
Tripping can detect a locked rotor condition via a binary input (”>Rotor locked”) from an
Characteristic external rpm-counter. If the current in any of the phases exceeds the motor starting
(Locked Rotor recognition setting entered at address I MOTOR START, and if a locked rotor condition
Time) is detected via a binary input, a motor starting condition is assumed, and time delayed
tripping via the definite time characteristic will be initiated (based on the maximum
allowable locked rotor time). It should be noted that this happens every time the motor
is started and is a normal operating condition that is neither entered in the operational
annunciations buffer, nor output to the control center, nor causes the creation of a fault
record.
The locked rotor delay time (LOCK ROTOR TIME) is ANDed with the binary
input”>Rotor locked”. If the binary input is still high after the locked rotor time has
elapsed, tripping is performed immediately, regardless of whether the binary input was
activated before or during the delay, or after the delay had elapsed.
Logic The motor starting time supervision may be switched on or off by parameters. In
addition, motor starting protection may be blocked via a binary input, at which time
pickup messages and time delays will be reset. Figure 2-103 illustrates the logic for
motor starting protection. A pickup does not create a fault record. Fault recording is
not started until a trip command has been issued.

General The motor starting time supervision is only effective and accessible if address 0165
STARTUP MOTOR has been set to Enabled during the configuration of the protective
functions. Set Disabled if the function is not required. Address 6501 STARTUP
MOTOR is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip command
(Block Relay).
Pickup Values The device is informed of the startup current values under normal conditions at
address 6502 START. CURRENT, and of the startup time at address 6503 STARTING
TIME. This ensures timely tripping if the value of I2 t calculated by the relay is
exceeded.
If the starting time exceeds the permissible locked rotor time, the definite-time tripping
characteristic can be started by an external r.p.m. counter via a binary input (“>Rotor
locked”). A locked rotor leads to a loss of ventilation and therefore to a reduced
thermal load capacity of the machine. Therefore, the starting time supervision must
issue a trip command before the thermal characteristic for normal operation is
reached.
A current above the threshold I MOTOR START (address 6505) is interpreted as a
motor startup. Consequently, this value must be chosen such that it is reliably attained
by the actual starting current under any load or voltage conditions during motor
startup, but not during a permissible short-time overload.
Example: Motor with the following data:
Nominal voltage UN = 6600 V
Nominal current IMot.nom = 126 A
Startup current IStartCurr. = 624 A
Permissible continuous Imax = 135 A
stator current:
Starting time at IStartCurr. TStartmax = 8.5 s
CT ratio IN CT prim/IN CT sec 200 A/1 A
For reduced voltage, the start-up current is also reduced almost linearly. At 80 %
nominal voltage, the start-up current in this example is reduced 0.8 ⋅ ISTARTUP =
2.5 ⋅ IN CT sec.
The threshold for detection of a motor startup must lie above the maximum load
current and below the minimum start-up current. If no other influencing factors are
present (peak loads), the value (I MOTOR START set at address 6505) may be a
median value:
135 A
Based on the long-term current rating: --------------- = 0.68 ⋅ I N CT sec
200 A
2.5 I N + 0.68 I N
I MotorStart = ----------------------------------------- ≈ 1.6 ⋅ IN CT sec = 1.6 A
2
I StartCurr. 2
T Trip = æ ----------------------ö ⋅ T Startmax
è I ø
Under nominal conditions, the tripping time is the maximum starting time TStartmax. For
ratios deviating from nominal conditions, the motor tripping time changes. At 80 % of
nominal voltage (which corresponds to 80% of nominal starting current), the tripping
time can be:
2
T Trip = æ ----------------------------ö ⋅ 8.5 s = 13.3 s
624 A
è 0.8 ⋅ 624 Aø
After the delay time LOCK ROTOR TIME has elapsed, the locked rotor binary input
becomes effective and initiates a tripping signal. If the locked rotor time is set just long
enough that during normal startup the binary input ”>Rotor locked” (FNo. 06805)
is reliably reset during the delay time LOCK ROTOR TIME, faster tripping will be
available during motor starting under locked rotor conditions.
The following list indicates the setting ranges and the default settings of a IN = 1 A
secondary nominal current. For a secondary nominal current of IN = 5 A, these values
must be multiplied by 5. Consider the current transformer ratios when setting the
device with primary values.

General The rotor temperature of a motor generally remains well below its maximum allowable
temperature during normal operation and even during severe loading conditions.
However, during motor starting, the rotor can heat up quickly. If multiple starting
attempts are made in a short duration of time, the rotor could suffer thermal damage.
Therefore, the 7UM62 motor start blocking feature is available. A motor restart inhibit
signal is initiated when the relay projects rotor temperature exceeds the maximum
allowable temperature, and blocking continues until the calculated rotor temperature
decreases below the reset level. To block starting, the restart inhibit signal must be
masked to an output relay whose contact is inserted in the motor starting circuit.
Determining the Because the rotor current cannot be measured directly, the stator current must be
Rotor used to generate a thermal profile of the rotor. The r.m.s. values of the currents are
Overtemperature generated for this. The excessive rotor temperature ΘR is calculated using the highest
of the three phase currents. The thermal limit values for the rotor winding are based
on manufacturer’s data regarding the nominal starting current, maximum permissible
starting time, and the number of starts permitted from cold (ncold) and warm (nwarm)
conditions. From this data, the device performs the necessary calculations to establish
the thermal rotor profile and issues a blocking signal until the thermal rotor profile
decreases below the restarting limit.

Figure 2-104Temperature Curve at the Rotor and the Thermal Profile during Repeated Start-
Up Attempts
Although the heat distribution at the rotor cage bars can range widely during motor
starting, the different maximum temperatures in the rotor do not necessarily affect the
motor restart inhibit (see Figure 2-104). It is much more important to establish a
thermal profile, after a complete motor start, that is appropriate for the protection of the
motor’s thermal condition. Figure 2-104 shows, as an example, the heating processes
during repeated motor starts (three starts from cold operating condition), as well as the
thermal reproduction by the protective relay.
Restarting Limit If the rotor temperature has exceeded the restarting limit, the motor cannot be
restarted. When the rotor temperature goes below the restarting limit, that is, when
exactly one start becomes possible without exceeding the excessive rotor
temperature limit, the blocking signal is terminated. Therefore the restarting
temperatureΘRe.Inhib, related to the maximum permissible rotor overtemperature is
expressed as:
n cold – 1 ncold 2 3 4
Θ ReInhib [ % ] = --------------------- ⋅ 100 %
n cold ΘRe.Inhib 50 % 66.7 % 75 %
[%]
Restarting Times The motor manufacturer allows a maximum number of starting attempts under cold
(ncold) and warm (nwarm) conditions. Afterwards the motor cannot be restarted but
must be allowed some time — the restarting time — for the rotor to cool down. This
temperature behaviour is provided for in the protection as follows: After each motor
shutdown, a temperature equilibrium time (address 6604 T EQUAL) is started which
takes into account the different temperatures of different motor parts at the moment of
shutdown. During the rotor temperature equilibrium time, the thermal profile is not
updated but kept constant to model the equilibrium taking place in the rotor. After that,
the thermal profile cools down with a rotor time constant multiplied by extension
factor). During the equilibrium time the motor cannot be restarted. As soon as
temperature sinks below the restarting threshold, the next restart attempt can be
made.
The entire time that must elapse before motor starting can resume is equal to the
equilibrium time and the amount of time, calculated via the thermal model, that it takes
for the rotor temperature to decrease to the reset temperature level:
Θ pre ⋅ n cold
T ReInhib time = T Equilibrium + k τ ⋅ τ LR ⋅ ln -----------------------------
n cold – 1
The operational measured value TReInhib time (to be found in the overload measured
values) shows the time remaining until the next restart is permissible.
Extending the In order to properly account for the reduced heat exchange when a self-ventilated
Cooling Time motor is stopped, the cooling time constants can be increased relative to the time
Constant constants for a running machine by the factor Kt at STOP (address 6608). A stopped
motor is defined by current below an adjustable current flow monitoring threshold
BkrClosed I MIN, assuming that the motor idle current is greater than this
threshold. The pickup threshold BkrClosed I MIN affects also the thermal overload
protection function (see Section 2.9).
While the motor is running, the heating of the thermal profile is modeled with the time
constantτL calculated from the motor ratings, and the cooldown calculated with the
time constant τL ⋅ Kt at RUNNING (address 6609). In this way, the protection caters
to the requirements in case of a slow cooldown (slow temperature equilibrium).
Minimum Inhibit Regardless of thermal profiles, some motor manufacturers require a minimum inhibit
Time time after the maximum number of permissible starting attempts has been exceeded.
The duration of the inhibit signal depends on which of the times, T MIN. INHIBIT
or TReInhib time, is longer.
Behaviour in Case Depending on the setting of parameter 0274A ATEX100, the value of the thermal
of a Power Supply profile is either reset on a failure of the power supply voltage, or cyclically buffered in
Failure a”non-volatile” memory until the power supply voltage returns. In the second case, the
thermal replica uses the last buffered value for calculation and matches it to the
operating conditions.
Emergency If, under emergency conditions, motor starting in excess of the maximum allowable
Starting rotor temperature must take place, the motor start blocking signal can be terminated
via a binary input (”>Emer. Start QR”), thus allowing a new starting attempt. The
thermal rotor profile continues to function, however, and the maximum allowable rotor
temperature will be exceeded. No motor shutdown will be initiated by the motor restart
inhibit, but the calculated excessive temperature of the rotor can be observed for risk
assessment.
Blocking If the motor start blocking function is blocked or switched off, the thermal profile of the
excessive rotor temperature and the equilibrium time T EQUAL as well as the
minimum inhibit time T MIN. INHIBIT are reset, and any existing motor start inhibit
signal is terminated.
Logic The thermal profile can also be reset via a binary input. This may be useful for testing
and commissioning, and after a power supply voltage failure.
Figure 2-105 shows the logic diagram for the restart inhibit function.

RESTART INHIBIT is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip

Necessary The user communicates to the protective relay the characteristic motor values
Characteristic supplied by the manufacturer, which are necessary for calculation of the rotor
Values temperature. These values include the starting current IStart, the nominal motor current
IMot.nom, the maximum permissible startup time T START MAX (address 6603), the
number of permissible restart attempts under cold (ncold) and (nwarm) conditions.
The starting current is entered at address 6602, expressed as a multiple of the nom-
inal motor current (IStart/IMOTnom). For a correct interpretation of this parameter,
it is important that in Power System Data 1 the apparent power (address 252 SN GEN/
MOTOR) and the rated voltage (address 251 UN GEN/MOTOR) of the motor are cor-
rectly set. The number of warm starts allowed is entered at address 6606 (MAX.WARM
STARTS), and the difference between the number of allowable cold and warm starts
(#COLD-#WARM) is entered at address 6607.
For motors without separate ventilation, the reduced cooling at motor stop can be
accounted for by entering at address 6608 the reduced ventilation, expressed by the
factor Kt at STOP. As soon as the current no longer exceeds the current flow
monitoring setting entered at address 0281 BkrClosed I MIN, a motor standstill is
assumed and the time constant is increased by the set factor.
If no difference between the time constants is to be used (e.g. externally-ventilated
motors), then the factor should be set to Kt at STOP = 1.
The cooling with the motor running is influenced by the extension Kt at RUNNING. This
factor considers that motor running under load and a stopped motor do not cool down
at the same speed. It becomes effective as soon as the current exceeds the value set
at address 0281 BkrClosed I MIN. With Kt at RUNNING = 1 the heating and the
cooling time constant are the same at operating conditions (I > BkrClosed I MIN).
The ratio between the starting current and the motor nominal current is:
624 A
I Start ⁄ I Mot.nom = --------------- = 4.95 ≈ 4.9
126 A
For the rotor temperature equilibrium time, a setting of. T EQUAL = 1 min has proven
to be a good value. The value for the minimum inhibit time T MIN. INHIBIT depends
of the requirements made by the motor manufacturer, or by the system conditions. It
must in any case be higher than T EQUAL. In this example, a value has been chosen
that reflects the thermal profile (T MIN. INHIBIT = 6.0 min).
The motor manufacturer's, or system requirements determine also the extension
factor for the time constant during cooldown, especially with the motor stopped. Where
no other specifications are made, the following settings are recommended:
Kt at STOP = 5 and Kt at RUNNING = 2.
For a proper functioning, it is also important that the CT values for side 2 (addresses
0211 and 0212), the power system data (addresses 0251, 0252) and the threshold
current for distinction between stopped and running motor (address 0281
BkrClosed I MIN, recommended setting ≈ 0.1 ⋅ I/IN Motor) have been set correctly.
An overview of the parameters and their default settings is given in the tables at the
end of this section and in the Appendix.
Temperature For better understanding of the above considerations, two of the many possible
Behaviour during operating states will be discussed in the following paragraph. The examples use the
Changing settings indicated above. 3 cold and 2 warm startup attempts have resulted in a restart
Operating States limit of 66.7 %.
Figure 2-106 illustrates the temperature behaviour during 2 warm startup attempts.
The motor is always operated at nominal current. After the first shutdown, T EQUAL
takes effect.
30 s later the motor is restarted and immediately shut down again. After another
pause, the 2nd restart attempt is made. The motor is shut down once again. During
this 2nd startup attempt, the restarting limit is exceeded, so that after shutdown the
restart inhibit takes effect. After the temperature equilibrium time (1 min), the thermal
profile cools down with the time constant τL ⋅ Kt at STOP ≈ 5 ⋅ 204 s = 1020 s. The
restart inhibit is effective for about 7 min.

In Figure 2-107, the motor is also restarted twice in warm condition, but the pause
between the restart attempts is longer than in the first example. After the second
restart attempt, the motor is operated at 90 % nominal current. After the shutdown
following the first starting attempt, the thermal profile is “frozen”. After the temperature
equilibrium time (1 min) the rotor cools down with the time constant
τL ⋅ Kt at STOP ≈ 5 ⋅ 204 s = 1020 s. During the second restart, the starting current
causes a temperature rise, whereas the subsequently flowing on-load current of
0.9 ⋅ I/IN Motor reduces the temperature. This time, the time constant
τL ⋅ Kt at RUNNING = 2 ⋅ 204 s = 408 s is effective.
The fact that the restarting limit is exceeded for a short time does not mean a thermal
overload. It rather signals that a thermal overload of the rotor would arise if the motor
were shut down immediately and restarted.

General The breaker failure protection can be assigned to the current inputs of side 1 or side
2 during the configuration of the protective functions (see Section 2.2). The breaker
failure protection function monitors the reaction of a circuit breaker to a trip signal. In
machine protections, it is typically referred to the mains breaker. To determine if the
circuit breaker has properly opened in response to a trip signal, one of the following
methods is used to ascertain the status of the circuit breaker:
• Checking whether the current in all three phases drops below a set threshold
following a trip command,
• Evaluating the position of a circuit breaker auxiliary contact for protective functions,
with which the current criterion is perhaps not expressive, e.g. frequency protection,
voltage protection, rotor earth fault protection.
If the circuit breaker has not opened after a programmable time delay (breaker failure),
a higher-level circuit breaker can initiate the disconnection (refer to Figure 2-108 as an
example).

Initiation The breaker failure protection function can be initiated by two different sources:
• Internal protective function of the 7UM62, e.g. trip commands of protective
functions or via CFC (internal logic functions),
• External trip signals via binary input.
Criteria The two pickup criteria (current criterion, circuit breaker auxiliary contact) are OR
logics. In case of a tripping without short circuit current, e.g. by the voltage protection
in case of light load, the current is no safe criterion of the circuit breaker response. For
this reason, the pickup is also possible by means of the auxiliary contact criterion.
The current criterion is fulfilled if at least one of the three phase currents exceeds a
parameterized threshold value (CIRC. BR. I>). The dropout is performed if all three
phase currents fall below 95 % of the pickup threshold value.
If the binary input of the circuit breaker auxiliary contact is inactive, only the current
criterion is effective and the breaker failure protection cannot become active with a
tripping signal if the current is below the CIRC. BR. I> threshold.
Two-Channel To protect against nuisance tripping due to excessive contact bounce, a stabilization
Feature of the binary inputs for external trip signals takes place. This external signal must be
present during the entire period of the delay time. Otherwise, the timer is reset and no
tripping signal is issued. A redundant binary input “>ext.start2 B/F” is linked to further
enhance the security against unwanted operation. This means that no initiation is
possible unless both binary inputs are activated. The two-channel feature is also
effective for an”internal” initiation.
Logic If the breaker failure protection has picked up, a corresponding message is
transmitted and a parameterized time delay starts. If the pickup criteria are still fulfilled
on expiration of this time, a redundant source evaluation before fault clearing is
initiated via a further AND link by means of a superior circuit breaker.
A pickup drops off and no trip command is produced by the breaker failure protection if
− an internal start condition (Output relay BO12 or via CFC) or “>ext.start1 B/F”
or “>ext.start2 B/F” causing the pickup drop off.
− a tripping signal of the protective functions still exists, whereas the current criterion
and the auxiliary contact criterion drop out.
Figure 2-109 illustrates the logic diagram of the breaker failure protection. The overall
breaker failure protection can be switched on or off via parameters and also blocked
dynamically via binary inputs.

General The breaker failure protection function is only effective and available if it has been
assigned at address 0170 BREAKER FAILURE to Side 1 or Side 2 during
configuration of the protective functions. Set Disabled if the function is not required.
Address 7001 BREAKER FAILURE is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to
block only the trip command (Block Relay).
The current measurement for the circuit breaker failure protection can be performed
either at side 1 (inputs IL, S1) or at side 2 (inputs IL, S2). It is recommended to use the
terminal-side set of CTs, i.e. side 1.
Criteria The parameter 7002 TRIP INTERN serves to select the OFF criterion of the internal
pickup. It can be implemented by reading the switching statuses of the corresponding
output relays BO12 (7002 TRIP INTERN = BO12) or by a logic link created in CFC
(= CFC) (annunciation 1442 ”>int. start B/F”). The internal source can be
completely deactivated (7002 TRIP INTERN = OFF). In this case the breaker failure
protection can only be initiated by external sources via binary input.
Note: Be aware that only the potential-free binary output BO12 (Relay R12) can be
used for the breaker failure protection. This means that trippings for the network
breaker must be configured to this binary output.
The pickup threshold 7003 CIRC. BR. I> setting of the current criterion refers to
all three phases. The user must select a value ensuring that the function still picks up
even for the lowest operating current to be expected. For this reason, the value should
be set at least 10% below the minimum operating current.
However, the pick-up value should not be selected lower than necessary, as a too
sensitive setting risks prolongations of the drop-out time due to balancing procedures
in the current transformer secondary circuit during the switchoff of too high currents.
Time Delay The breaker failure time delay setting is entered at 7004 TRIP-Timer. This setting
should be based on the circuit breaker interrupting time plus the dropout time of the
current flow monitoring element plus a safety margin. Figure 2-110 illustrates the
timing of a typical breaker failure scenario.

Criteria The inadvertent energizing protection only intervenes if measured quantities do not
yet exist in the valid frequency working area (operational condition 0 in case of the
standing machine) or if an undervoltage below the nominal frequency is present
(machine already started, but not yet synchronized). The inadvertent energizing
protection is blocked by a voltage criterion on exceeding a minimum voltage, in order
to avoid that it picks up during normal operation. This blocking is delayed to avoid that
the protection is blocked immediately by the time of an unwanted connection. Another
pickup delay is necessary to avoid an unwanted operation in case of high-current
faults with a heavy voltage dip. A dropout time delay allows for a measuring limited in
time.
As the inadvertent energizing protection must intervene very quickly, the
instantaneous current values are monitored over a large frequency range already in
operational condition 0. If valid measured quantities exist (operational condition 1), the
positive phase-sequence voltage, the frequency for blocking the inadvertent
energizing protection as well as the instantaneous current values are evaluated as
tripping criterion.
Figure 2-111 illustrates the logic diagram of the inadvertent energizing protection. This
function can be blocked via a binary input. For example, the existence of an excitation
voltage can be used as addition criterion. As the voltage is a necessary criterion for
tripping the inadvertent energizing protection, the voltage transformers must be
monitored by the Fuse–Failure–Monitor (FFM). If it detects a voltage transformer fault,
the voltage criterion of the inadvertent energizing protection is deactivated.

EN. is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block only the trip command (Block

Criteria Parameter 7102 I STAGE serves to specify the current pickup threshold of the
inadvertent energization protection function. As a rule, this threshold value is set more
sensitively than the threshold value of the time-overcurrent protection. In this case, the
inadvertent energizing protection may only be effective if the device is either in
operational condition 0 or if no nominal conditions have been reached yet. The
parameter 7103 RELEASE U1< serves to define these nominal conditions. The
typical setting is about 50 % to 70 % of the nominal voltage. A 0 V setting deactivates
the voltage tripping. However, this should only be used if 7102 I STAGE shall be
used as 3rd time-overcurrent protection stage, at a very high setting.
The parameter 7104 PICK UP T U1< parameter represents the time delay for the
release of the tripping condition in case of an undervoltage. The user should select a
higher value for this time delay than the for the tripping time delay of the time-
overcurrent protection.
The delay time to block the tripping conditions when the voltage is above the
undervoltage threshold is set at 7105 DROP OUT T U1<. The inadvertent energizing
protection is blocked only after this time in order to enable a tripping subsequent to
connection.

of a machine standstill and, contrary to this, during a voltage collapse in case of a short

General To detect DC voltages, DC currents and small AC quantities, the 7UM62 is equipped
with a measuring transducer input (TD1) that can be used either for voltages (± 10 V)
or currents (± 20 mA). Higher DC voltages are connected via an external voltage
divider. The DC voltage/DC current protection can be used, for example, for the
monitoring of the excitation voltage of synchronous machines (see Figure 2-113), or
for the detection of earth faults in the DC section of the start-up converter of a gas
turbine set (see Figure 2-114).

Startup Converter transformers have a lower ohmic resistance than voltage transformers, the thermal
load is the highest on them.
As shown in Figure 2-114, the DC current is converted into a voltage in a shunt, and
fed via a shunt converter to the measuring transducer of the device.
Shunt converters can be measuring transducers such as the 7KG6131. For short
distances between the shunt converter and the protective device, a voltage input may
be used. For longer distances, use the version with current input (-20 to 20 mA or 4 to
20 mA).

General The DC voltage protection is only effective and accessible if it was set at address 0172
DC PROTECTION = Enabled during the configuration of the protection functions. Set
Disabled if the function is not required. For the associated measuring transducer 1,
either 10 V, 4–20 mA oder 20 mA has been selected during configuration at address
0295 TRANSDUCER 1 (see Section 2.3).
Jumpers X94, X95 and X67 on the C–I/O–6 module are used to set in the hardware
whether the measuring transducer input will be a voltage or a current input (see
Section 3.1.3). Their setting must correspond to the setting at address 0295. If it does
not, the device is blocked and issues an annunciation to that effect. When the relay is
delivered from the factory, the jumpers and configuration parameters are set to
voltage measurement.
Address 7201 DC PROTECTION is used to switch the function ON or OFF, or to block
only the trip command (Block Relay).
Measuring Normally an integrated average value filter is switched on. A high ripple content or
Procedure non-periodic peaks in the measurement voltage are averaged in this manner. The
polarity of the measured voltages is of no concern since the absolute value is taken.
Alternatively, a sinusoidal AC voltage can be measured (address 7202
MEAS.METHOD = RMS). The protection then multiplies the rectified average value with
1.11. The frequency of the AC voltage must match the frequency of other AC
quantities, because the latter determine the sampling rate. The maximum AC
amplitude must not exceed 10 V, so that for r.m.s. value measurement a maximum
setting of 7.0 Vrms is reasonable. The resulting higher secondary voltage can be
reduced by means of a voltage divider.
Pickup Thresholds Depending on the whether current or voltage input has been set at address 0295
TRANSDUCER 1, one of the following parameters is available, whereas the other is
masked out:
− Voltage measurement threshold: 7204 U DC ><
− Current measurement threshold: 7205 I DC ><
When setting the pickup values (address 7204), the ratio of a voltage divider – if fitted
– has to be considered.
Application When used for excitation voltage monitoring, the DC current protection is configured
Examples to operate for undervoltage; the pickup threshold is set to approx. 60 % to 70 % of the
no-load excitation voltage. Users should be aware that normally a voltage divider is
connected between the protection and the excitation voltage (see Figure 2-113).
Another typical application is the earth fault protection for the startup converter of a
gas turbine set. In the case of an earth fault in the DC circuit, half of the DC voltage is
present between the transformer starpoint and the earth if the transformer starpoint is
not earthed. This voltage can be considered as the voltage feeding the earth current.
As the transformer starpoints are earthed, the current flowing is determined by the
feeding voltage and the ohmic resistance of all transformers that are galvanically
connected to the converter set and earthed. This DC current is normally between
about 3 and 4 A.
For a startup converter having a startup transformer with UN, AT ≈ 1.4 kV and a 6-pulse
bridge circuit, there will be a DC voltage of UDC ≈ 1.35 ⋅ UN, AT = 1.89 kV. In case of
an earth fault in the intermediate circuit, the „displacement voltage“will be half of the
DC voltage (UDC, fault = 0.5 ⋅ UDC = 945 V).
If we assume that the earthing transformer has an ohmic winding resistance of R ≈
150 Ω, a DC current of I0 = 945 V/150 Ω = 6,3 A will flow through its starpoint.
Note: The ohmic winding resistances of earthing and neutral transformers can differ
widely depending on the type. For a concrete application, they should be obtained
from the manufacturer, or determined by measurements.
If not tripped, the earth fault current would cause a temperature overload that would
destroy the wye-connected voltage transformers and the earthing transformer. To
ensure that the protection will pick up reliably, it is set to a value of less than half the
fault current, in this example to 2 A. With the shunt and shunt converter used in the
example, this current causes a secondary current of 4 mA (see Figure 2-114) (fault
current ≈ 6 A, selected pickup value = 2 A, setting value = 4 mA).
Delays The tripping delay can be set at address 7206 T DC. The set time is an additional
time delay not including the operating time of the protective function.
For the startup earth fault current protection, T DC is determined by the permissible
temperature load of the earthing and/or neutral transformer. A value of 2 s or less is
quite common.
Note: It should be noted that in operating condition 0, the operating times for pickup
and dropout are 4 times longer due to the more complex filter procedure needed to
eliminate disturbances.

Depending on the variant ordered, the 7UM62 machine protection can have up to four
analog outputs (plug-in modules on ports B and D). The values to be transmitted via
these interfaces have been specified during the configuration of the scope of
protection functions (see Section 2.2). A maximum of four of the following analog
outputs are available.
• Measured positive sequence current I1 in percent of the rated operational current;
• Measured negative sequence current I2 in percent of the rated operational current;
• Measured positive sequence voltage U1 in percent of the rated voltage;
• Measured value |P| (absolute value of active power) in percent of the rated
operational apparent power √3·UN ·IN,
• Measured value |Q| (absolute value of reactive power) in percent of the rated
operating apparent power √3·UN ·IN,
• Measured value frequency f in percent of the nominal frequency,
• Measured value |cosϕ| (absolute value of power factor) in percent, referred to 1.00,
• Measured value rotor temperature ΘR/ΘR max in percent of the maximum
permissible rotor temperature,
• Measured value stator temperature ΘS/ΘS TRIP in percent of the tripping
temperature.
Operating nominal quantities are the nominal values set at addresses 0251 UN GEN/
MOTOR and 0252 SN GEN/MOTOR (see also Section 2.3).
For measured values that can be negative (power, power factor), absolute values are
formed and output.
Analog values are output as load-independent currents. The analog outputs have a
nominal range between 0 mA and 20 mA, their operating range can be up to 22.5 mA.
The conversion factor and the scope of validity are set.
General You have specified during the configuration of the analog outputs (Section 2.2,
addresses 0173 through 0176) which of the analog inputs available will be used for
what measured values. Set Disabled if a function is not needed. The other
parameters associated to that analog output are masked out in that case.
Measured Values If you have selected measured values for the analog outputs (Section 2.2, addresses
0173 through 0176), you specify for the available outputs the conversion factor and
the range of validity; these are
Example:
You want to output the positive sequence currents at analog output B1, location”B”.

The device is equipped with extensive monitoring capabilities - both for hardware and
software. In addition, the measured values are also constantly monitored for
plausibility, therefore, the current transformer and voltage transformer circuits are
largely integrated into the monitoring.
The device is monitored from the measurement inputs to the output relays. Monitoring
circuits and processor check the hardware for malfunctions and disallowed conditions
(see Table 2-13 in Section 2.38.1.5).
Auxiliary and The processor voltage of 5 V DC is monitored, and if the voltage decreases below the
Reference Voltages minimum value, the device is removed from operation. When the cross-polarized
voltage returns, the processor system is restarted.
Removal of or switching off the supply voltage removes the device from operation and
a message is immediately generated by a dead contact. Brief voltage interruptions of
less than 50 ms do not disturb the readiness of the device (for nominal auxiliary
voltage ≥110 V DC).
The processor monitors the offset and reference voltage of the AD (analog-digital)
converter. The protection is suspended if the voltages deviate outside an allowable
range, and lengthy deviations are reported (”Error A/D-conv.”).
Buffer Battery The buffer battery, which ensures the operation of the internal clock and the storage
of counters and messages if the auxiliary voltage fails, is periodically checked for
charge status. If it is less than an allowed minimum voltage, then the ”Fail Battery”
message is issued.
If the power supply voltage is cut off for 1 or 2 days, the internal buffer battery is auto-
matically switched off, i.e. the internal clock will stop, whereas the buffered annuncia-
tions and fault event data will be preserved.
Memory The working memory (RAM) is tested when the system is started up. If a malfunction
Components occurs then, the starting sequence is interrupted and an LED blinks. During operation,
the memory is checked using its checksum.
For the program memory, the cross sum is formed periodically and compared to the
stored program cross sum.
For the settings memory, the cross sum is formed periodically and compared to the
cross sum that is freshly generated each time the setting process takes place.
If a malfunction occurs, the processor system is restarted.
Sampling Sampling and the synchronization between the internal buffer components are
constantly monitored. If any deviations cannot be removed by renewed
synchronization, then the processor system is restarted.
Measured Value In the current path, there are three input transformers each on side 1 and side 2; the
Acquisition - digitized sum of the outputs of these on one side must be almost zero for generators
Currents with isolated starpoint and earth-fault-free operation. A current circuit fault is detected
if
IF = |IL1 + IL2 + IL3 | > ΣI THRESHOLD · IN + ΣI FACTOR · Imax
ΣI THRESHOLD and ΣI FACTOR are settings that are available individually for side 1
and side 2. The component SUM.Fact.I · Imax takes into account permissible current
proportional transformation errors in the input converters, which can be especially
large when high fault current levels are present (Figure 2-116). The dropout ratio is
about 95%.
This error is reported separately for side 1 and side 2 by ”Fail ΣI”.
The current sum monitoring is only effective for the side for which the starpoint has
been configured as Isolated in the power system data (addresses 0242 / 0244).

Measured Value In the voltage path, there are four input transformers: If three of them are used for

Voltages the broken delta winding or neutral transformer) of the same system, a fault in the
phase-earth voltage sum is detected if
|UL1 + UL2 + UL3 + kU · UE | > SUM.thres. U + SUM.Fact. U x Umax
SUM.thres. U and SUM.Fact. U are parameter settings, and Umax is the highest
of the phase-earth voltages. The factor kU considers the transformation ratio
differences between the displacement voltage input and the phase voltage inputs
(parameter kU = Uph / Udelta address 0225A). The SUM.Fact. U x Umax
component considers permissible voltage-proportional transformation errors, which
can be especially large in the presence of high voltages (Figure 2-117).
This malfunction is reported as ”Fail S U Ph-E”.
Note:
Voltage sum (phase-earth) monitoring is only operative if an externally formed
displacement voltage s connected to the residual voltage input of the relay and if this
was communicated to the device via the parameter 0223 UE CONNECTION.
Voltage sum (phase-earth) monitoring can operate properly only if the matching factor
Uph / Udelta at address 0225A has been correctly configured (see Section 2.3.2).

Software For continuous monitoring of the program sequences, a time monitor is provided in the
Monitoring hardware (hardware watchdog) that runs upon failure of the processor or an internal
program, and causes a complete restart of the processor system.
An additional software watchdog ensures that malfunctions during the processing of
programs are discovered. This also initiates a restart of the processor system.
To the extent such a malfunction is not cleared by the restart, an additional restart
attempt is begun. After three unsuccessful restarts within a 30 second window of time,
the device automatically removes itself from service and the red ”Error” LED lights up.
The readiness relay opens and indicates ”device malfunction” with its normal contact.
Current Symmetry The currents fed in at the current inputs of side 1 and side 2 are monitored for
symmetry. During normal system operation (i.e. the absence of a short-circuit fault),
symmetry among the input currents is expected. This symmetry is checked by the
device, using a quantity monitor. The smallest phase current is compared to the
largest phase current, and asymmetry is recognized if:
|Imin | / |Imax | < BAL. FACTOR I provided that Imax / IN > BALANCE I LIMIT / IN
where Imax is the largest of the three phase currents and Imin is the smallest. The
symmetry factor BAL. FACTOR I is the measure for the asymmetry of the phase
currents; the limit value BALANCE I LIMIT is the lower limit of the operating range
of this monitoring (see Figure 2-118). Both settings are adjustable individually for side
1 and side 2. The dropout ratio is about 95 %.
This malfunction is reported as ”Fail. Isym” individually for side 1 and side 2.

Voltage Symmetry During normal system operation (i.e. the absence of a short-circuit fault), symmetry
among the input voltages is expected. From the phase-to-ground voltages, the
protection generates the rectified average values and checks the symmetry of their
absolute values. The smallest phase voltage is related to the highest. Asymmetry is
recognized if:
|Umin | / |Umax | < BAL. FACTOR U provided that |Umax| > BALANCE U-LIMIT
where Umax is the highest of the three voltages and Umin the smallest. The symmetry
factor BAL. FACTOR U is the measure for the asymmetry of the conductor voltages;
the limit BALANCE U-LIMIT is the lower limit of the operating range of this monitoring
(see Figure 2-119). Both settings are adjustable. The dropout ratio is about 95%.
This malfunction is reported as ”Fail U balance”.
In the case of unsymmetrical conditions a zero sequence voltage is possible. If the
90–%–stator earth fault protection is switched on and has picked up, it blocks the
voltage symmetry supervision. The voltage symmetry supervision is active as long as
no protection function has picked up.

Current and To detect swapped phase connections in the voltage and current input circuits, the
Voltage Phase phase sequence of the phase-to-phase measured voltages and the phase currents
Sequence are checked by the monitoring.
Direction measurement with cross-polarized voltages, path selection for impedance
protection, and unbalance load detection all assume a clockwise phase sequence.
The current rotation is checked and reported individually for side 1 and side 2.
The phase sequence of the phase-to-ground voltages is verified by ensuring the
following
UL1 leads UL2 leads UL3
Likewise, the phase sequence of the phase currents is verified by ensuring the
following:
IL1 leads IL2 leads IL3
Verification of the voltage rotation occurs when each measured voltage is at least
|UL1|, |UL2|, |UL3| > 40 V/√3
Verification of the current rotation occurs when each measured current is at least
|IL1|, |IL2|, |IL3| > 0.5 IN.
For counter-clockwise phase sequence, the annunciations ”Fail Ph. Seq. U”,
(FNo. 176) or ”FailPh.Seq I S1”, (FNo. 00265) are output for side 1, or
”FailPh.Seq I S2”, (FNo. 00266) for side 2, as well as an OR link for these
annunciations ”Fail Ph. Seq.”, (FN. 00171).
For applications where the phase rotation of the measured quantities is counter-
clockwise phase in normal operation, this must be set in the device with the parameter
0271 PHASE SEQ. or an appropriately masked binary input. If the phase sequence
is changed in the relay, phases ‘L2’ and ‘L3’ internal to the relay are reversed, and the
positive and negative sequence currents are thereby exchanged (see also Section
2.43). The phase- related messages, malfunction values, and measured values are
not affected by this.
If fuses are used instead of a secondary miniature circuit breaker with connected
auxiliary contacts, then the fuse failure monitoring can detect problems in the voltage
transformer secondary circuit. Of course, supervision of the miniature circuit breaker
and the fuse failure monitor can be used at the same time.
This function uses the current of side 2.
Measuring The measuring voltage failure detection is based on the fact a significant negative-
Principle for 1–Pole phase sequence system is formed with regard to the voltage during a 1- or 2-pole
and 2–Pole Fuse voltage failure, without influencing the current. This enables a clear distinction from
Failures asymmetries impressed by the power system. If the negative-phase sequence system
is related to the current positive-phase sequence system, the following rules apply for
the fault-free case:
U I
------2- = 0 and ---2- = 0
U1 I1
If a fault of the voltage transformers occurs, the following rules apply for a
single-pole failure:
U I U I
0.33
------2- = ----------- = 0.5 and ---2- = 0 æ ------2- > ---2-ö
U1 0.66 I1 è U 1 I 1ø
If a fault of the voltage transformers occurs, the following rules apply for a
two-pole failure:
U2 0.33 I U I
------- = ----------- = 1 and ---2- = 0 æ ------2- > ---2-ö
U1 0.33 I1 è U 1 I 1ø
In case of an outage of one or two phases, the current also shows a negative-phase
sequence system of 0.5 or 1. Consequently, the voltage monitoring does not respond
as no the voltage transformer fault can be present.
In order to avoid - in case of a too small positive-sequence system - an unwanted
operation by inaccuracies of the measuring voltages failure detection, the function is
blocked below a minimum threshold of the positive-sequence systems of (U1 < 10 V)
and current (I1 < 0.1 IN).
3–Pole Fuse Failure A 3-pole voltage transformer failure cannot be detected via the positive- and negative
phase sequence system, but requires a monitoring of the current and voltage time
course. A voltage dip to approximately zero (or if the voltage is zero) although the
current remains unchanged by the same time, this is probably due to a 3-pole voltage
transformer failure. The deviation of the actual current value from the nominal current
value is evaluated for this purpose. The measuring voltage failure monitoring is
blocked if the deviation amount is greater than a threshold value. Moreover, this
function is blocked if a pickup of an (overcurrent) protective function is already
present.
Additional Criteria In addition to this, the function can either be blocked via a binary input or deactivated
by an undervoltage protection at a separate voltage transformer set. If an
undervoltage is also detected at a separate transformer set, this is most probably not
due to a transformer error and the monitoring switching can be blocked. The separate
undervoltage protection must be set non-delayed and should also evaluate the
positive-phase sequence system of the voltages (e.g. 7RW600).
Figure 2-120 illustrates the logic diagram of the measuring voltage failure detection
feature.
Voltage at UE Input Depending on how UE is connected, it may be necessary to block the voltage mea-
surement of this input. A blocking can be generated with the CFC tool and linked by

Default values are set at the factory, which are sufficient in most cases. If especially
high operating asymmetry in the currents and/or voltages is to be expected for the
application, or if it becomes apparent during operation that certain monitoring
Functions activate sporadically, then the setting should be less sensitive.

A condition for the use of trip circuit monitoring is that the control voltage for the circuit
breaker is greater than the sum of the minimum voltage drops of both binary (USt >

be used with a system control voltage of over 38 V.

Monitoring with binary inputs not only detects interruptions in the trip circuit and loss
of control voltage, it also monitors the response of the circuit breaker using the position
of the circuit breaker auxiliary contacts.
Depending on the conditions of the trip contact and the circuit breaker, the binary
inputs are activated (logical condition ”H” in Table 2-15), or not activated (logical
condition ”L”).
Even for healthy trip circuits the condition that both binary inputs are not actuated (”L”)
is possible during a short transition period (trip contact is closed, but the circuit breaker
has not yet opened.) A continuous state of this condition is only possible when the trip
circuit has been interrupted, a short-circuit exists in the trip circuit, a loss of battery
voltage occurs, or malfunctions occur with the circuit breaker mechanism.
Table 2-15 Condition Table for Binary Inputs, depending on RTC and CB Position
The conditions of the two binary inputs are checked periodically. A check takes place
about every 600 ms. If three consecutive conditional checks detect an abnormality
(after 1.8 s), an annunciation is reported (see Figure 2-122). This is used to avoid the
annunciation for brief transition periods. When the fault in the trip circuit has been
cleared, the annunciation is automatically reset.

Figure 2-124 Principle of Trip Circuit Monitoring with One Binary Input
During normal operation, the binary input is activated (logical condition “H”) when the
trip contact is open and the trip circuit is intact, because the monitoring circuit is closed
by either the circuit breaker auxiliary contact (if the circuit breaker is closed) or through
the equivalent resistor R. Only as long as the trip contact is closed, the binary input is
short circuited and thereby de-activated (logical condition ”L”).
If the binary input is continuously de-activated during operation, this leads to the
conclusion, there is an interruption in the trip circuit or loss of control voltage.
The trip circuit monitor does not operate during system faults. A momentary closed
tripping contact does not lead to a failure message. If, however, tripping contacts from
other devices operate in parallel with the trip circuit, then the failure annunciation must
be delayed (see also Figure 2-125). The conditions of the binary input are, therefore,
checked 500 times before an annunciation is sent. A condition check takes place
about every 600 ms, so trip circuit monitoring is only activated during an actual
malfunction of the trip circuit (after 300 s). When the fault in the trip circuit has been
cleared, the annunciation is automatically reset.
Note:
If the lock-out function is used, the trip circuit monitoring with only one binary input
must not be used as the relay remains permanently picked up after a trip command
(more than 300 s).

The function is only effective and accessible if it has been enabled during the
configuration of the protective functions at address 0182 Trip Cir. Sup. (Section
2.2) by setting one of the alternatives with 2 Binary Inputs or with 1 Binary
Input and provided that the required number of binary inputs is allocated to it and
that the function has been set at address 8201 TRIP Cir. SUP. = ON. If the
configuration of the binary inputs needed for this does not match the selected
monitoring type, then a message to this effect (”TripC ProgFail”) is sent. If the trip
circuit monitor is not to be used at all, address 0182 should be set to Disabled.
Further settings are not needed. The message of a trip circuit interruption is delayed
by a fixed amount of time. For two binary inputs, the delay is about 2 seconds, and for
one binary input, the delay is about 300 ms. This ensures that the trip circuit monitor
waits until the longest possible duration of a trip signal has elapsed, and generates an
alarm only if there is a real malfunction in the trip circuit.
Monitoring with Note: When using only one binary input (BI) for the trip circuit monitor, some
One Binary Input malfunctions, such as interruption of the trip circuit or loss of battery voltage, can
indeed be detected, but malfunctions with closed trip contacts cannot. Therefore, the
measurement must take place over a period of time that bridges the longest possible
duration of a closed trip contact. This is ensured by the fixed number of measurement
repetitions and the time between the condition checks.
When using only one binary input, a resistor R is inserted into the circuit on the system
side, instead of the missing second binary input. Through appropriate sizing of the
resistor and depending on the system relationship, a lower control voltage can often
be sufficient. The resistor R is inserted into the circuit of the circuit breaker auxiliary
contact (AuxCont2), to facilitate the detection of a malfunction when the circuit breaker
auxiliary contact (AuxCont1) open and the trip contact has dropped out (see Figure 2-
124). This resistor must be sized such that the circuit breaker trip coil is no longer
energized when the circuit breaker is open (which means AuxCont1 is open and
AuxCont2 is closed). The binary input should still be picked up when the trip contact
is simultaneously opened.
This results in an upper limit for the resistance dimension, Rmax, and a lower limit Rmin,
from which the optimal value of the arithmetic mean should be selected:
R max + R min
R = ---------------------------------
2
In order that the minimum voltage for controlling the binary input is ensured, Rmax is
derived as:
U St – U BI min
R max = æ ---------------------------------ö – R TC
è I BI (High) ø
So the circuit breaker trip coil does not remain energized in the above case, Rmin is
derived as:
U Ctrl – U TC (LOW)
R min = R TC ⋅ æ ---------------------------------------------ö
è U TC (LOW) ø
If the result of the calculation is Rmax < Rmin the calculation must be repeated, with the
next lowest pickup threshold UBI min; for this threshold one or more jumpers must be
set in the device (see Section 3.1.3).

General This function monitors the thresholds of selected measured values, checking whether
the values exceed or drop below these thresholds. The processing speed of this func-
tion is so high that it can be used for protection applications. The necessary logical can
be implemented by means of CFC.
The principal field of application of threshold supervision are high-speed supervision
and automatic functions as well as application-specific protection functions (e.g. pow-
er plant decoupling) which are not included in the scope of protection functions.
There are 6 threshold supervision blocks, 3 each for responding to values in excess
of and below the threshold. They output as result a logical indication that can be further
processed by the CFC.
A total of 9 processable measured values are available, all of which can be evaluated
as percentages. Each threshold block can be allocated one of these 9 measured val-
ues. As in all other protection functions, the measured values are referred to second-
ary quantities.
Table 2-17 below show the useable measured values. The threshold values are que-
ried once per cycle.

The figure shows that the measured values can be freely allocated to the threshold
supervision blocks. The dropout ratio for the MVx> stage is 0.95 or 1 %. Accordingly,
it is 1.05 or 1 % for the MVx< stage.
General The threshold supervision function is only effective and accessible if address 185
THRESHOLD has been set to Enabled during the configuration of the protection func-
tions.
Pickup Values The pickup values are set as percentages. Please note the scaling factors listed in Ta-
ble 2-17.
The measured values for power P, Q and ∆P, as well as the phase angle, can be either
positive or negative. Where the monitoring is for a negative threshold value, the num-
ber line definition applies (–10 is smaller than –5).
Example:
The measured quantity P (active power) is allocated to MV1> and set to –5 %.
If the actual measured value is higher than –5 % (e.g. –4 % or even +100 %), the in-
dication “Meas. Value1>” is output as a logical “1”, which means a pickup in terms
of protection engineering. A dropout signal (indication “Meas. Value1>” logical “0”)
is output if the measured value drops to less than –5 % ⋅ 1.05 = –5.25 %.
With the measured quantity P allocated to MV2<, the monitoring checks whether the
value drops below the threshold.
A pickup signal is output in that case if the measured value becomes less than –5 %
(e.g. –8 %). The dropout value is at –5 % ⋅ 0.95 = –4.75 %.
Note:
The measured values U1, U2, I0, I1 and I2 are always greater than 0. Care should be
taken here to use only positive threshold values which allow the indication to drop out.
When defining the power angle ϕ, it should be kept in mind that this angle is only de-
fined for ± 100 % (equivalent to ± 180°) or less. The threshold value should be chosen
accordingly, taking into account the dropout ratio.
Further Processing The indications of the 6 measured value monitoring blocks (see list of information) are

Interaction with the The ambient or coolant temperature can be fed via the thermobox to the overload pro-
Overload tection function of the 7UM62. For this purpose, the required temperature sensor must
Protection be connected to sensor input 1 of the 1st thermobox (corresponds to RTD 1).
Thermobox 7XV56 The thermobox 7XV566 is an external device mounted on a standard mounting rail. It
has 6 temperature inputs and an RS485 interface to communicate with the protection
device. The thermobox takes the coolant temperature of each measuring point from
the resistance value of the temperature detectors connected with a two- or three-wire
line (Pt100, Ni100 or Ni120) and converts it to a digital value. The digital values are
output at a serial interface.
Communication The protection device can communicate with up to 2 thermoboxes via its service port
with the Protection (port C or D).
Device
Up to 12 temperature measuring points are in this way available. For long distances
between the thermobox and the protection device, communication via fiber-optic cable
is recommended. Section A.4.1 of the Appendix shows possible communication archi-
tectures.
Temperature The non-linearized temperature values are converted into a temperature; the user can
Evaluation choose between °C and °F. The conversion factor depends on the temperature detec-
tor used.
For each measuring point, two pickup thresholds can be defined, the signals of which
are then available for any kind of further processing. The user can allocate the pickup
signals in the configuration matrix as required.
To each temperature detector is assigned an alarm which is issued in case of a short-
circuit or an interruption of the sensor circuit.
Figure 2-129 shows the logic diagram of the temperature evaluation.

General The temperature detection function is only effective and accessible if it has been as-
signed to an interface during the configuration of the protection functions (Section
2.2.1). Address 0190 RTD-BOX INPUT is used to allocate the thermobox(es) to the
interface (e.g. interface C) through which it will be operated. The number of detector
inputs and the communication mode are selected with address 0191 RTD CONNEC-
TION. The temperature unit (°C or °F) has been set in Power System Data 1 at ad-
dress 0276 TEMP. UNIT.
Settings on the The settings to be made on the protection device are the same for each input; they are
Protection Device described here as an example for measuring input 1.
For RTD1 (temperature detector for measuring 1), the type of temperature detector is
set at address 9011A RTD 1 TYPE. Setting options are Pt 100 W, Ni 120 W and
Ni 100 W. Where no measuring point is provided for RTD1, RTD 1 TYPE = Not
connected is set. This setting is only possible with DIGSI® 4 under „Advanced Pa-
rameters“.
The location RTD1 is communicated to the device at address 9012A RTD 1 LOCA-
TION. Setting options are Oil, Ambient, Winding, Bearing and Other. This set-
ting is only possible with DIGSI® 4 under “Advanced Parameters”.
You can also set an alarm temperature and a tripping temperature. Depending on the
temperature unit selected in the power system data (Section 2.3 at address 0276
TEMP. UNIT), you can select the alarm temperature at address 9013 RTD 1 STAGE
1 in degree Celsius (°C) or at address 9014 RTD 1 STAGE 1 in degree Fahrenheit
(°F). The tripping temperature is set at address 9015 RTD 1 STAGE 2 in degree
Celsius (°C) or at address 9016 RTD 1 STAGE 2 in degree Fahrenheit (°F).
In the same way, you can make the settings for all connected temperature detectors
(see the settings table in 2.42.2.1).
Settings on the Where temperature detectors with a 2-wire line are used, the line resistance must be
Thermobox measured and set (with the temperature detector shorted). To do so, select mode 6 in
the thermobox and enter the resistance value for the desired detector (range 0 to
50.6 Ω). For temperature detectors with a 3-wire line, no extra settings are required.
The information is exchanged with a baud rate of 9600 bits/s. The parity is even. The
bus number is set to 0 in the factory. Changes can be made in mode 7 on the ther-
mobox. The following convention applies:
More information can be found in the operating instructions supplied with the ther-
mobox.
Further Processing The thermobox is seen in DIGSI® 4 as part of the 7UM62 protection device, i.e. indi-
of Measured Values cations and measured values appear in the configuration matrix just like those of in-
and Indications ternal functions, and can be masked and processed in the same way. This means that
indications and measured values can also be transmitted to the integrated user-defin-
abled logic (CFC) and linked in any desired way.
If you want an indication to appear in the operational indication buffer, mark the matrix
cell at the appropriate column/line intersection with a cross.
General A phase rotation feature via binary input and parameter is implemented in the 7UM62,
thus ensuring that all protective and monitoring functions operate correctly when the
phase rotation is reversed.
If an anti-clockwise rotating phase sequence permanently exists, the appropriate
setting should be entered in the power system data (see Section 2.3).
If the phase rotation reverses during operation (e.g. in a pumping power station, the
transition from the generator operation to the pumping operation is realized by
changing the phase rotation), then a reversal signal at the input masked for this
purpose is sufficient to inform the protective relay of the phase-sequence reversal.
Logic The phase rotation is permanently set in a parameter of the power system data at
address 0271 PHASE SEQ.. The binary input ”>Reverse Rot.” sets the phase
rotation for the opposite of the setting (see figure 2-130).

For safety reasons, the device accepts the phase rotation reversal only by a time when
no usable measured quantities exist. The binary input is only inquired if operational
condition 1 is not present. If a reverse command is present for a period of at least
200 ms, the measured quantities of phases L2 and L3 exchanged.
If operational condition 1 is reached before the minimum control time of 200 ms has
expired, the phase rotation reversal does not become effective.
As no phase rotation reversal is possible in operational condition 1, the control signal
could be cancelled in operational condition 1 without a phase rotation. For safety
reasons, the control signal should be permanently present in order to avoid
malfunctions also in case of a device reset (e.g. due to configuration change).
Influence on The swapping of phases directly impacts the calculation of positive and negative
Protective sequence quantities, as well as phase-to-phase voltages via the subtraction of one
Functions phase-to-ground voltage from another. Therefore, this function is vital so that phase
detection messages, fault values, and operating measurement values are not falsified.
As stated before, this function influences the unbalance load protection function,
directional overcurrent protection function, and some of the monitoring functions
(see Subsection 2.38.1.3), that issue messages if the required and calculated phase
rotations do not match.
The normal phase sequence has been set at the address 0271 (see Section 2.3).
If, on the system side, phase rotation reversal is performed temporarily, then this is
communicated to the protective device via the binary input ”>Reverse Rot.”
(FNo. 05145).
The function logic is the heart of the device. It coordinates the sequence of both the
protective and auxiliary functions, processes functional decisions, and processes data
received from the system. In particular, the function logic is responsible for the
following:
• Processing Measurement and Detection Logic
• Processing Tripping Logic
General Device The pickup signals for all protective functions in the device are connected via an OR
Pickup function, and lead to the general device pickup. General device pickup is initiated by
the first function to pickup, and general device drop out occurs when the last function
drops out. A corresponding message ”Dev. Pickup” indicating that general device
pickup has occurred is reported.
General device pickup is a precondition for a series of internal and external functions
that occur subsequently. The following are among the internal functions controlled by
general device pickup:
• Start of Trip Log: From general device pickup to general device drop out, all fault
messages are entered in the trip log.
• Initialization of Oscillographic Records: The storage and maintenance of
oscillographic values can also be made dependent on the general device pickup.
• Generation of Spontaneous Messages: Certain fault messages are displayed in the
device display as so-called spontaneous messages (see below ”Spontaneous
Messages”). These display messages can also be made dependent on the general
device trip.
Spontaneous Spontaneous messages are fault messages that appear in the display automatically
Messages when general device pickup has occurred. For the 7UM62, these messages include:
• “Relay PICKUP”: protective function that last picked up
• ”Relay TRIP”: protection function that last initiated a trip signal
• “PU Time”: running time from general device pickup to general device
dropout, with time indicated in ms;
• “TRIP Time”: running time from general device pickup to initiation of the first
trip signal by the device, with time indicated in ms;
Please note that the overload protection does not have a pickup comparable to the
other protective functions. The general relay pickup time PU Time is first started with
the trip signal, and an abnormal occurrence is opened. The dropout of the thermal
image of the overload protection ends the fault message and, thereby, the running
time from general relay pickup to general device dropout PU Time.
General trip The tripping signals for all protective functions are connected by ”OR” and generate a
message ”General TRIP” indicating that the device has initiated a trip signal.
This annunciation, like individual trip indications, can be allocated to an LED or an
output relay. It can also be used as a sum event.
Terminating the • If a protective function is set to Block Relay, it is blocked for the activation of the
Tripping Signal output relay. The other protective functions are not affected by this.
• A trip command once transmitted is stored (see Figure 2-131). At the same time,
the minimum trip command duration TMin TRIP CMD is started. This trip signal
duration timer ensures the trip signal is transmitted to the circuit breaker for a
sufficient amount of time, even if the function which issued the trip signal drops out
quickly. The trip signal is only terminated after all protection Functions drop out AND
the minimum trip signal duration expires.
• Finally, it is possible to latch the trip signal until it is manually reset (lockout
function). This allows to lock the circuit breaker against reclosing until the cause of
the malfunction has been clarified and the lockout has been manually reset. The
reset takes place either by pressing the LED reset key or by activating an
appropriately masked binary input (”>Reset LED”). A precondition, of course, is
that the circuit breaker trip coil – as usual – remains energized at the circuit breaker
as long as the trip signal is present, and that the trip coil current is interrupted by the
auxiliary contacts of the circuit breaker.

Command Duration was already discussed in Subsection 2.3. This time is valid for all protective functions
that can initiate trip signals, as well as for trip signals that are initiated using the device
function controller.
The storage of messages masked to local LEDs, and the maintenance of spontaneous
messages, can be made dependent on whether the device has issued a trip signal. In
this situation, these messages are not issued, if one or more protective functions have
only picked up on a fault, but a trip signal has not been issued yet by the 7UM62
because the fault was cleared by another device (for instance outside of the own
protection range). These messages are then limited to faults in the own protection
range. Figure 2-132 illustrates the creation of the reset command for stored
messages. By the moment of the device dropout, the stationary conditions (fault
indication with excitation/with trip signal; tripping/no tripping) decide whether the new
fault remains stored or is reset.

Pickup of a new protective function generally turns off any previously set light displays,
so that only the latest fault is displayed at any time. It can be selected whether the
stored LED displays and the spontaneous messages on the display appear upon
renewed pickup, or only after a renewed trip signal is issued. In order to enter the
desired type of display, select in the SETTINGS menu the sub-menu Device. Address
7110 FltDisp.LED/LCD offers the two alternatives Display Targets on
every Pickup and Display Target on TRIP only.
Number of Trips The number of trips initiated by the 7UM62 is counted, as long as the position of the
circuit breaker is monitored via breaker auxiliary contacts and binary inputs. To use
this function, the internal pulse counter ”Trip Count” is masked in the matrix to a
binary input that is controlled by the circuit breaker OPEN position. The pulse count
value ”Trip Count” can be found in the submenu ”Statistic” if ”Measured and
Metered Values Only” has been selected in the matrix.
Switch-Off Values Additionally, the following switch-off values are indicated in the fault messages for
(at Trip) each trip signal:
− the primary currents in all three phases in kA, individually for side 1 and side 2
− if tripping has been initiated by the differential protection, the differential and
restraint currents of all three phases are indicated.
− the three phase-earth-voltages in kV
− primary active power P in kW, MW or GW (precisely averaged power)
− primary reactive power Q in kVA, MVA or GVA (precisely averaged power)
− frequency in Hz
Operating Hours The operating hours under load (= the current value in at least one phase is larger than
the limit value BkrClosed I MIN) set at address 0281) are also stored.
Accumulated The shutdown currents for each phase, which are indicated at every trip command
Shutdown Currents individually for side 1 and side 2, are accumulated and stored.
The counter and memory levels are secured against loss of auxiliary voltage.
2.44.4.2 Setting/Resetting
The above listed statistical counters are set and reset in the menu
ANNUNCIATIONS → STATISTIC by overwriting the displayed counter values.
After the occurrence of a system fault, data regarding the response of the protective
relay and the measured quantities should be saved for future analysis. For this reason
message processing is done in three ways:
LEDs and Important events and conditions are displayed, using LEDs on the front panel of the
Binary Outputs relay. The relay also contains output relays for remote signaling. All LEDs and binary
(Output Relays) outputs indicating specific messages can be freely configured. The relay is usually
delivered with a default setting. The SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual describes in detail
how to proceed for the configuration. The default settings on delivery are listed in the
Appendix of this manual, Section .
The output relays and the LEDs can be operated in a latched or unlatched mode
(individually settable for each one).
The latched conditions are protected against loss of the auxiliary voltage. Please
observe the following:
− If necessary, clear stored indications by pressing the ”LED-Reset” key.
− Remotely using a binary input,
− Using one of the serial interfaces,
− Automatically at the beginning of a new pickup.
Condition messages should not be stored. Also, they cannot be reset until the criterion
to be reported is cleared. This applies to messages from monitoring functions, or
similar.
A green LED displays operational readiness of the relay, and cannot be reset. It goes
out if the self-check feature of the microprocessor recognizes an abnormal
occurrence, or if the auxiliary voltage is lost.
When auxiliary voltage is present, but the relay has an internal malfunction, then the
red LED (ERROR) lights up and the processor blocks the relay.
Fault Information Events and conditions can be read out on the display on the front cover of the relay.
Display or Personal Using the front operator interface or the rear service interface, for instance, a personal
Computer computer can be connected, to which the information can be sent.
In the idle condition, as long as no system fault is present, the display field can display
selected operating information (overview of operating measurement values). In the
case of a system fault, information about the system fault appears instead
(spontaneous display messages, see also Section 2.44.1.1). After the fault related
Operating messages contain information that the device generates during operation
and about the operation. Up to 200 operating messages are stored in chronological
order in the device. New messages are added at the end of the list. If the memory has
been exceeded, then the oldest message is overwritten for each new message.
After a short-circuit fault on the system, for example, important information about the
progression of the fault can be retrieved, such as the pickup of a protective element or
the initiation of a trip signal. The time the initial occurrence of the short-circuit fault
occurred is accurately provided via the system clock. Time progression of the short-
circuit fault is reported based on the moment of pickup, so that the duration, until the
trip signal is issued and interrupted, is available. The time resolution used for reporting
is 1 ms.
Spontaneous After a fault, the device displays automatically and without any operator action on its
Annunciations on LCD display the most important fault data from the general device pickup in the se-
the Device Front quence shown in Figure 2-133.
Retrieved The messages for the last eight network faults can be retrieved. Where a generator
Messages fault causes several protective functions to pick up, the fault is considered to include
all that occurred between pickup of the first protective function and dropout of the last
protective function.
In total 600 messages can be recorded. Oldest data are erased for newest data when
the buffer is full.
The spontaneous annunciations displayed using DIGSI® 4 reflect the present status
of incoming information. New annunciations are displayed immediately, no triggered
or cyclic refreshment is required.
The messages in switching statistics are counters for the accumulation of interrupted
currents by each of the breaker poles, the number of trips issued by the device to the
breaker, and the operating hours of the breaker and protected equipment. The
interrupted currents are in primary terms.
Switching statistics can be viewed on the LCD of the device, or on a PC running
DIGSI® 4 and connected to the operating or service interface.
A password is not required to read switching statistics; however, a password is
required to change or delete the statistics.
Information to a Stored information can also be transferred to a central control system (SCADA), using
Control Center the system interface. The transfer can take place using various transfer protocols.
2.45.2 Measurements
Display of A series of measured values and the values derived from them are constantly
Measured Values available for call up on site, or for data transfer (See Table 2-19, as well as the
following list).
The operational measured values listed in Table 2-19 can be read out as secondary,
primary or percent values. A precondition for correctly displaying the primary and
percentage values is complete and correct entry of the nominal values for the current
transformers, and protected equipment, in accordance with Subsections 2.3 and 2.5.
Table 2-19 lists the formulae for the conversion of secondary into primary or
percentage values.
Depending on the version ordered, the type of device connection and the configured
protective functions, only a part of the operational measured values listed in Table 2-
19 may be available. The displacement voltage 3U0 is calculated from the phase-earth
voltages: 3U0 = |UL1 + UL2 + UL3|. All three voltage inputs must be phase-ground
connected for this.

The calculation of the operational measured values is also executed in case of an
existing fault. The values are updated in intervals of ≥ 0.3 s and ≤1 s.
Transfer of Measured values can be transferred via the interfaces to a central control and storage
Measured Values unit.
Setpoint SIPROTEC® 7UM62 allows to set warning levels for important measured and counter
Monitoring values. When a programmed limit value is exceeded (or fallen below), a message is
generated that is output as an operational annunciation and can — like all operational
annunciations — be masked to both output relays and LEDs and transmitted through
the interfaces. In contrast to the actual protective functions, such as time-overcurrent
protection or overload protection, this monitoring program executes in the background
and may not respond promptly in case of a fault if the measured values change rapidly
and protective functions pick up. Moreover, since a message is not generated until the
set limit value has been exceeded several times, these monitoring functions cannot
respond immediately before a device trip.
In the7UM62, only the limit value of the undercurrent protection IL< is configured
when the device is delivered from the factory. More limit values can be configured if
their measured and metered values have been set accordingly in CFC) see
SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual).
Terminology Please be aware of the fact that we use different terms for the above-mentioned
function: (Oscillographic) Fault Recording, Oscillographic Recording, Wave Form
Capture. However, all terms have the same meaning. The corresponding fault buffer
in DIGSI® 4 is called Trip Log.
General The Multifunctional Protection 7UM62 is equipped with a fault memory sampling either
the instantaneous values or the r.m.s. values of various measured quantities to store
them in a circulating buffer. The instantaneous values of measured values
iL1 S1; iL2 S1; iL3 S1; iEE1; iL1 S2; iL2 S2; iL3 S2; iEE2 and uL1, uL2, uL3, uE and
u= or i= of the three measuring transducers
are sampled at intervals of 1.25 ms (for 50 Hz) or 1.04 ms (for 60 Hz), and stored in a
circulating buffer (16 samples per cycle). For a fault, the data are stored for an
adjustable period of time, but not more than 5 seconds.
The r.m.s. values of the measured quantities
I1, I2, IEE2, IEE1; U1, UE, P, Q, ϕ, f–fN, R and X can be stored in a circulating buffer,
in a grid of 1 measured value per cycle. R and X are the positive sequence
impedances. For a fault, the data are stored for an adjustable period of time, but not
more than 80 seconds.
Up to 8 fault records can be recorded in this buffer. The memory is automatically
updated with every new fault, so no acknowledgment for previously recorded faults is
required. Waveform capture can also be started with protection pickup, via binary
input, via operator interface, or SCADA.
The data can be retrieved via the serial interfaces by means of a personal computer
and evaluated with the protection data processing program DIGSI® 4 and the graphic
analysis software SIGRA® 4. The latter graphically represents the data recorded
during the system fault and calculates additional information such as the impedance
or RMS values from the measured values. A selection may be made as to whether the
currents and voltages are represented as primary or secondary values. Binary signal
traces (marks) of particular events e.g. ”fault detection”, ”tripping” are also
represented.
If the device has a serial system interface, the fault recording data can be passed on
to a central device via this interface. The evaluation of the data is done by applicable
programs in the central device. Currents and voltages are referred to their maximum
values, scaled to their rated values and prepared for graphic representation. Binary
signal traces (marks) of particular events e.g. ”fault detection”, ”tripping” are also
represented.
In the event of transfer to a central device, the request for data transfer can be
executed automatically and can be selected to take place after each fault detection by
the protection, or only after a trip.
Integrated date and time stamping allows for the exact evaluation of sequence of
events (e.g. operations or error messages, or limit violations). The clock may be
influenced by:
• the internal RTC clock (Real Time Clock),
• external synchronization sources (DCF, IRIG B, SyncBox, IEC 60870–5–103,
PROFIBUS),
• external minute impulses via a binary input.
Note:
The device is delivered from the factory with the internal RTC clock selected as the
time source, independent of whether the device is equipped with a system interface
or not. If external synchronization is desired, it must be configured accordingly.
Here you may select the time standard for internal time stamping by selecting from the
following modes:
IEC 60870–5–103 External synchronization using the system interface and the
IEC 60870–5–103 protocol
Pulse via binary External synchronization with pulse via binary input
input
The time display may be set using either the European format (DD.MM.YYYY) or the
US format (MM/DD/YYYY).
If the power supply voltage is cut off for 1 or 2 days, the internal buffer battery is
automatically switched off.
If the device is connected to a central control or storage system, you can influence the
information that will be transferred to the control center.
The IEC 60870–5–103 protocol allows to identify all messages and measured values
transferred to the central control system with an added message “test operation”- bit
while the device is being tested on-site (test mode). This identification prevents the
messages from being incorrectly interpreted as resulting from an actual power system
disturbance or event. As another option, all messages and measured values normally
transferred via the system interface can be blocked during the testing (block data
transmission).
Data transmission block can be accomplished by controlling binary inputs, by using
the operating panel on the device, or with a PC and DIGSI® 4 via the operator
interface. The CFC link for changeover to binary input is predefined in the device (see
Figure A-48 in the Appendix A.9.7).
The SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual describes in detail how to activate and deactivate
test mode and blocked data transmission.
If the device has a SCADA interface that is used for communication with a control
centre, you can test in the DIGSI® 4 Dialog Mode whether annunciations are correctly
transmitted.
A dialog box displays the texts of all annunciations that have been masked to the
system interface in the matrix. In another column of the dialog box you can specify a
value for the annunciations that you want to test (e.g. coming/ going) to generate an
annunciation as soon as you have entered password no. 6 (for hardware test menus).
The annunciation is output and can now be read both in the operational annunciations
of the SIPROTEC® device and in the station control center.
This test can be performed in annunciation direction as well as in command direction.
The procedure is described in detail in Section 3.3.2.
With DIGSI® 4 you can test selectively individual binary inputs, output relays and
LEDs of the SIPROTEC®4 device. This allows you, for instance, to check during
commissioning whether your station connections are correct.
A dialog box displays all binary inputs and outputs existing in the device, and the LEDs
with their current state. It also shows which commands or annunciations are masked
to which hardware component. In anther column of the dialog box you can switch each
item to the opposite state after entering password no. 6 (for hardware test menus). In
this way you can, for instance, cause each output relay to pick up, and thus test the
wiring between the 7UM62 and the station, without having to create the indications
masked to it.
This procedure is described in detail in Section 3.3.3.
Thresholds The settings are entered under MEASUREMENT in the sub-menu SET POINTS (MV)
by overwriting the existing values.
Waveform Capture Waveform capture of faults is executed only when address 0104 FAULT VALUE has
been set to Instantaneous values or RMS values. Other settings pertaining to
waveform capture are found under the OSC. FAULT REC. submenu of the
SETTINGS menu. Waveform capture makes a distinction between the trigger for an
oscillographic record and the criterion to save the record (address 0401
WAVEFORMTRIGGER). Normally the trigger is the pickup of a protective element, i.e.
when a protective element picks up the time is 0. The criterion for saving can be the
pickup as well (Save w. Pickup), or the device trip (Save w. TRIP). Another
option is to set (Start with TRIP). A trip command issued by the device is both the
trigger and the criterion to save the record with this setting.
A waveform capture includes in machine protection always the complete course of a
fault. An oscillographic fault record includes data recorded prior to the time of trigger,
and data after the dropout of the recording criterion. Therefore address 0402
WAVEFORM DATA is preset to Fault event.
The user determines the length of pre-trigger time and post-dropout time to be
included in the fault record with the settings in address 0404 PRE. TRIG. TIME and
address 0405 POST REC. TIME. The maximum length of time of a record MAX.
LENGTH is entered at address 0403. The setting depends on the criterion for storage,
the delay time of the protective functions and the desired number of stored fault
events. The largest value here is 5 s for fault recording of instantaneous values, 80 s
for recording of r.m.s. values (see address 0104). A total of 8 records can be saved.
Note: These times apply for 50 Hz. They will be different with another frequency. If
RMS values are stored, the times stated for parameters 0403 to 0406 will be 16
times longer.
An oscillographic record can be triggered and saved by a change in status of a binary
input or via the operator interface connected to a PC. The trigger is dynamic. The
length of a record for these special triggers is set at address 0406 BinIn
CAPT.TIME (upper bound is MAX. LENGTH, address 0403). Pre-trigger and post-
dropout times are not included. If the binary input time is set to ∞, then the length of
the record equals the time that the binary input is activated (static), or the MAX.

General In addition to the protective functions described thus far, a control command process
is integrated in the SIPROTEC® 7UM62 to coordinate the operation of circuit breakers
and other equipment in the power system. Control commands can originate from four
command sources:
− Local operation using the keypad on the local user interface of the device
− Operation using DIGSI® 4
− Remote operation using a substation automation and control system (e.g.
SICAM)
− Automatic functions (e.g., using a binary input)
Single and double busbar systems are supported. The number of switchgear devices
to be controlled is, basically, limited by the number of binary inputs and outputs
present. Therefore, 7UM622 should be the preferred version. High security against
inadvertent device operations can be ensured if interlocking checks are enabled. A
standard set of optional interlocking checks is provided for each command issued to
circuit breakers/switchgear.
Logical Links Using The 7UM62 can also execute user-defined logic functions. These logic functions can
CFC be edited with the CFC (=Continuous Function Chart) tool. Interlocking and command
processing, as well as monitoring functions or processing of measured values, can be
programmed by simple drawing; no programming knowledge is required. The desired
functions can be put together from predefined function blocks which are grouped in a
library. Detailed information on CFC is contained in the SIPROTEC® 4 System
Manual, Order No. E50417–H1176–C151, and in particular in the CFC Manual, Order
No. E50417–H1176–C098. A logic circuit is created with a PC using the DIGSI® 4
software; the serial or service port is used for this.
When the device is delivered from the factory, it contains two standard CFC charts
(see Appendix A.9.7). One chart is used to allow switching of an annunciation/
measured value blocking by binary input (blocking of annunciations in test mode) (see
2.45.5.1). The other chart (see Figure A-49) provides for undercurrent monitoring of
three phase currents.
Operation Using Control commands can be initiated using the keypad on the local user interface of the
the Keypad on the relay (see also SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual, Control of Switchgear). Using the
Local User navigation keys , , , , the control menu can be accessed and the circuit
Interface breaker/switchgear to be operated can be selected. After entering a password, a new
window is displayed in which multiple control actions (close, open, cancel) are
available and can be selected using the and keys. Next a security check takes
place. After the security check is completed, the ENTER key must be pressed again to
carry out the command. If the ENTER key is not pressed within one minute, the
selection is cancelled. Cancellation via the ESC key is possible at any time before the
control command is issued. ESC
If the attempted command fails, because an interlocking condition is not met, then an
error message appears in the display. The message indicates why the control
command was not accepted (see also SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual). This message
must be acknowledged with ENTER before any further control commands can be
issued.
Operation using Control commands for switchgear can also be entered in DIGSI® 4 with a PC that is
DIGSI® 4 connected to the operator interface. The procedure to do so is described in the
SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual (Control of Switchgear).
Operation using the Control commands for switchgear can also be entered through the serial SCADA
SCADA Interface interface communicating with the substation control and protection system. A
prerequisite for this is that the required peripherals physically exist in the device and
the substation. Also, a few settings for the serial interface in the device are required
(see SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual).
Control Commands These are all commands that are directly output to the switchgear to change their
process state:
− Commands for the operation of circuit breakers (unsynchronized),
disconnectors, earthing switches
− Step commands (e.g. raising and lowering transformer LTCs)
− Set-point commands with configurable time settings (Petersen coils)
Internal / Pseudo These commands do not directly operate binary outputs. They serve to initiate internal
Commands functions, simulate changes of state, or to acknowledge changes of state.
− Manual overwriting commands to manually update information on process-
dependent objects such as annunciations and switching states, e.g. if the
communication with the process is interrupted. Manually overwritten objects are
marked as such in the information status and can be displayed accordingly.
− Additionally, Tagging commands are issued to establish internal settings, such
as switching authority (remote vs. local), parameter set changeover, data
transmission block to the SCADA interface, and measured value set-points.
− Acknowledgment and resetting commands for setting and resetting internal
buffers.
− Information status command to set/reset the additional „Information status“ item
of a process object, such as:
− Controlling activation of binary input status
− Binary Output Blocking
Safety mechanisms in the command sequence ensure that a command can only be
released after a thorough check of preset criteria has been successfully concluded.
Additionally, user-defined interlocking conditions can be programmed separately for
each command. The actual execution of the command is also monitored afterwards.
The entire sequence of a command is described briefly in the following:
Check Sequence • Command Entry (e.g. using the keypad on the local user interface of the device)
− Check password → Access rights
− Check Switching Mode (interlocking activated/deactivated→ Selection of
Deactivated Interlocking Recognition
• User configurable Interlocking checks
− Switching Authority
− Device Position (scheduled vs. actual comparison)
− Zone Controlled/Field Interlocking/ (logic using CFC)
− System Interlocking (centrally, using SCADA system or substation controller)
− Double Operation (interlocking against parallel switching operation)
− Protection Blocking (blocking of switching operations by protective functions)
• Fixed Command Checks
− Internal process time (software watch dog which checks the time for processing
the control action between initiation of the control and final close of the relay
contact.
− Setting Modification in Process (if setting modification is in process, commands
are denied or delayed)
− Equipment Present at Output (If a circuit breaker or other operable equipment is
not configured to a binary output, then the command is denied)
− Output Block (if an output block has been programmed for the circuit breaker,
and is active at the moment the command is processed, then the command is
denied)
− Component Hardware Malfunction
− Command in Progress (only one command can be processed at a time for one
circuit breaker or switch)
− 1-of-n-check (for schemes with multiple assignments, such as common ground,
whether a command has already been initiated for the affected output relay is
checked).
2.46.3 Interlocking
The extent of the interlocking checks is determined by the configuration of the relay.
Circuit breakers (or other equipment) that require system interlocking in a central
control system (Substation Controller) must be configured in their specific commands
object properties box for the specific control device.
For all commands, operation with interlocking (normal mode) or without interlocking
(test mode) can be selected:
− for local commands, by reprogramming the settings (using the local user interface)
with password check,
− for automatic commands, via command processing by CFC.
The command checks that can be selected for the SIPROTEC® relays are also
referred to as ”standard interlocking”. These checks can be activated (interlocked) or
deactivated (non interlocked) using DIGSI® 4.
Deactivated interlock switching means the configured interlocking conditions are not
checked in the relay.
Interlocked switching means that all configured interlocking conditions are checked
within the command processing. If a condition is not fulfilled, the command is rejected,
marked with a minus sign (e.g. ”CO–”), and a message to that effect is output. Table
2-20 shows the types of possible commands to switchgear, and the associated
annunciations.

Standard The following is a list of Standard Interlocking Conditions that can be selected for each
Interlocking controllable device. All of these are enabled as a default.
Defaults
• Device Position (scheduled vs. actual comparison) the switching command is
rejected, and an error message is displayed, if the circuit breaker is already in the
scheduled (desired) position. (If this check is enabled, then it works whether
interlocking, e.g. zone controlled, is activated or deactivated.)
• Substation Controller (System Interlocking) The system interlocking is checked by
transmitting a local command to the central controller with the switching authority
set to = Local. Switchgear that is subject to system interlocking cannot be switched
by DIGSI® 4.
• Bay Interlocking: All devices controlled by this relay can be interlocked by the CFC
logic.
• Blocked by protection: A CLOSE-command is rejected as soon as one of the
protective elements in the relay picks up. The OPEN-command, in contrast, can
always be executed. Please be aware, activation of thermal overload protection
elements can create and maintain a fault condition status, and can therefore block
CLOSE commands Double Operation Block: If you cancel the blocking, please be
aware that in this case the motor restart inhibit feature will not automatically reject
a restart command given to the motor. Therefore, a restart inhibit must be provided
by other means, e.g. by a bay interlocking using.
• Double Operation: Parallel switching operations are interlocked against one
another; while one command is processed, a second cannot be carried out.
• Switching Authority LOCAL: When this interlocking check is enabled in the Object
Properties dialog box, the status of Switching authority is checked prior to issuing a
control command. If this particular setting is selected, a control command from the
user interface of the device is only allowed if switching authority is set to LOCAL.
• Switching Authority DIGSI: Switching commands can be issued locally or remotely
via DIGSI. As part of the safety features, the device will check the DIGSI
configuration file in regard to the virtual device number to ensure that the correct
configuration file is used. DIGSI must have the same virtual device number. It is
important that one file can not be reused with multiple relays. But it is possible to
copy the file and use the new file with another relay.
• Switching Authority REMOTE: When this interlocking check is enabled in the Object
Properties dialog box, the status of Switching authority is checked prior to issuing a
control command. If this particular setting is selected a control command from a
remote DIGSI connection or via the system interface is only allowed if switching
authority is set to REMOTE.

Control Logic using For Zone Controlled (field interlocking), control logic can be developed, using the
CFC CFC. Via specific release conditions the information “released” or “zone controlled” is
available.
The switching authority condition LOCAL allows commands from the user inter-
face of the relay, but not remote or DIGSI commands. In the 7UM62, the options
“Local” and “Remote” are available in the display after entering a password.
Commands are checked for their source and the device settings, and compared
to the information set in the objects “Switching authority” and “Switching authority
DIGSI”.
Configuration Programming:
1) Switching authority: y/n (create appropriate object)
2) Switching authority DIGSI® 4: y/n (create appropriate object)
3) Specific object (e.g., switching device): Switching authority LOCAL (check for
commands initiated locally via keypad): y/n
4) Specific object (e.g., switching device): Switching authority REMOTE (check for
SAS, REMOTE, or DIGSI commands): y/n
In detail, the following interlocking logic is derived when using default configuration
settings:

SC = Source of command
SC=AUTO:
Commands that are initiated internally (command processing in the CFC) are not
subject to switching authority and are therefore always allowed.
Switching Mode The switching mode determines whether selected interlocking conditions will be
activated or deactivated at the time of the switching operation.
Zone Controlled/ Zone Controlled (field interlocking) includes the verification that predetermined
Field Interlocking switchgear position conditions are satisfied to prevent switching errors as well as
verification of the state of other mechanical interlocking such as High Voltage
compartment doors etc.
Interlocking conditions can be programmed separately, for each switching device, for
device control CLOSE and/or OPEN. Processing of the status of the release condition
for an operation switching device can be based on information acquired:
− directly, using a single point or double point indication (binary inputs), key-switch,
or internal indication (marking), or
− with logic using CFC.
When a switching command is initiated, the actual status of all relevant switching
devices is scanned cyclically.
Double Operation Parallel switching operations are interlocked. When a control command is received, all
objects that are subject to double operation inhibit are checked for control commands
in progress. While the command is being executed, the inhibit is in turn active for all
other commands.
Blocked by With this function, switching operations are blocked by the pickup of protective
Protection elements. Blocking is configurable separately for both closing and tripping commands.
When configured, “Block CLOSE commands” blocks CLOSE commands, whereas
„Block TRIP commands” blocks TRIP signals.
Operations in progress will also be aborted by the pickup of a protective element.
Device Position For switching commands, a check takes place whether the selected switching device
(Scheduled = is already in the scheduled/desired position (Open/Closed; scheduled/actual
Actual) comparison). This means, if a circuit breaker is already in the CLOSED position and
an attempt is made to issue a closing command, the command will be refused, with
the operating message ”scheduled condition equals actual condition”. If the circuit
breaker/switchgear device is in the intermediate position, then this check is not
performed.
Bypassing Inter- Interlocks can be bypassed to perform switching operations. This is either done inter-
locks nally by adding a bypass code to the command, or globally by so-called switching
modes.
G SC=LOCAL
− The 7UM62 offers the options “interlocked“ or “non-interlocked“ (bypassed) in the
display after entry of a password.
G REMOTE and DIGSI® 4
− Interlocks for commands issued by SICAM® or DIGSI® 4 are bypassed by a global
switching mode REMOTE. A separate bypass command has to be issued for this.
Each bypass is valid for only one switching operation, and only for commands orig-
inating from the same source.
− Control: command to object “Switching mode REMOTE”, CLOSE
− Control: switching command to “switching device”
G Derived commands from CFC (automatic command, SC=AUTO):
− Behaviour configured in the CFC block (“BOOL to command”).
During the processing of the commands, independent of the further message routing
and processing, command and process feedback information are sent to the message
processing centre. These messages contain message cause indication. The messag-
es are entered in the event list.
Acknowledgement All messages which relate to commands that were issued from the device front “Com-
of Commands to mand Issued = Local” are transformed into a corresponding response and shown in
the Device Front the display of the device. A list of possible responses and their meanings is given in
the SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual.
Acknowledgement The messages which relate to commands with the origin “Command Issued = Local/
of commands to Remote/DIGSI” must be send independent of the routing (configuration on the serial
Local/Remote/Digsi digital interface) to the initiating point.
The acknowledgement of commands is therefore not executed by a response indica-
tion as it is done with the local command but by ordinary command and feedback in-
formation recording.
Monitoring of The processing of commands monitors the command execution and timing of feed-
Feedback back information for all commands. At the same time the command is sent, the moni-
Information toring time is started (monitoring of the command execution). This time controls
whether the device achieves the required final result within the monitoring time. The
monitoring time is stopped as soon as the feedback information arrives. If no feedback
information arrives, a response “Timeout command monitoring time” appears
and the process is terminated.
Commands and information feedback are also recorded in the event list. Normally the
execution of a command is terminated as soon as the feedback information (FB+) of
the relevant switchgear arrives or, in case of commands without process feedback in-
formation, the command output resets.
The “plus” appearing in a feedback information confirms that the command was suc-
cessful, the command was as expected, in other words positive. The “minus” is a neg-
ative confirmation and means that the command was not fulfilled as expected.
Command Output The command types needed for tripping and closing of the switchgear or for raising
and Switching and lowering of transformer taps are described in the chapter on configuration in the
Relays SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual.

3.1.2 Connections
Overview diagrams are shown in Appendix A.2. CT and VT connections for a 7UM62
are shown in the Appendix, Section A.4. Make sure that the settings of the Power
System Data 1 (Section 2.3) match the connections.
Currents/Voltages Overview diagrams are shown in the Appendix. Figures and A-27 show examples of
current transformer circuit connections with busbar connection (address 0272
SCHEME = Busbar), Figures A-28 and A-29 with unit connection (address 0272 =
Unit transf.). In all examples the CT starpoints point towards the machine;
therefore, address 0201 STRPNT->OBJ S1 and 0210 STRPNT->OBJ S2 must be
set to Yes.
In Figures to A-28, the UE input of the device is connected to the open delta winding
of a voltage transformer set. Consequently, address 0223 must be set to UE
CONNECTION = delta winding.
Figure is the standard connection where one busbar is fed by several generators. As
the earth fault current can be increased by an earthing transformer connected to the
busbar (approx. 10 A max.), a protection range of up to 90 % can be achieved. To
achieve the necessary sensitivity, the earth fault current is measured using a toroidal
current transformer. During startup of the machine, the displacement voltage can be
used as a criterion for detecting an earth fault until synchronization is completed.
Factor 0213 FACTOR IEE2 considers the transformation ratio between the primary
and the secondary side of the summation current transformer when the sensitive
current input of side 2 in Figure is used. Likewise, factor 0205 FACTOR IEE1 applies
when the input of side 1 is used.
Example:
Summation current transformer 60 A/1 A
Matching factor for sensitive earth fault current detection: FACTOR IEE2 = 60
(if the input on side 2 is used)
If the sensitive current input of side 1 is used for rotor earth fault current detection (as
suggested in ), FACTOR IEE1 = 1 is chosen.
In Figure A-27 the generator starpoint has a low-resistance earthing. To avoid
circulating currents (3rd harmonics) in multi-generator connections, the resistor
should be connected to only one generator. For selective earth fault detection, the
sensitive earth fault current input IEE2 is looped into the common return line of the two
sets of CTs (current differential measurement). The current transformers are earthed
in one place only. FACTOR IEE2 is set to = 1. It is recommended to use for this type
of circuit current transformers that are balanced to one another (turns correction).
In Figure A-28 the earth fault is detected by means of the displacement voltage. A
loading resistor is provided on the broken delta winding to avoid spurious tripping in
case of earth faults occurring in the power system. The UE input of the device is
connected via a voltage divider to the broken delta winding of an earthing transformer
(address 0223 UE CONNECTION = delta winding). Factor 0225A Uph / Udelta
is determined by the transformation ratio of the secondary-side voltages:
The resulting factor between the secondary windings is 3/√3 = 1.73. For situations
where the displacement voltage is measured by the device and other types of voltage
transformer connections are utilized, the setting of address 0225A should be modified
accordingly.
Factor 0224 FACTOR UE considers all of the transformation ratios between the
primary voltage and the voltage fed to the device terminals, i.e. it includes the voltage
divider that is connected upstream. For a primary nominal transformer voltage of
6.3 kV, a secondary voltage of 500 V in case of full displacement and a voltage divider
ratio of 1:5, this factor would be:
6.3 kV ⁄ ( 3 ) 5
FACTOR UE = æè --------------------------------- ⋅ ---öø = 36.4
500 V 1
For additional hints, please refer to section 2.3 under “Transformation Ratio UE“.
In Figure A-29 a loading resistor connected to the generator c.t. reduces the
interference voltage from network-side earth faults. The maximum earth fault current
is limited to approx. 10 A. The resistor can be a primary or secondary resistor with
neutral earthing transformer. The neutral earthing transformer should have a low
transformation ratio to avoid a small secondary resistance. The resulting higher
secondary voltage can be reduced by means of a voltage divider. Address 0223 UE
CONNECTION is set to Neutral transformer.
Figure A-30 shows the connection of the DC voltage protection for systems with
startup converter. The amplifier 7KG6 amplifies the signal measured at the shunt to a
maximum of 10 V or 20 mA, depending on the connected equipment. Input TD1 can
be adapted to the type of signal (voltage or current) by means of wire jumpers (see
also 3.1.3.3 “Switching Elements on Printed Circuit Boards”).
Figure A-31 shows in an exemplary way how the rotor earth fault protection is
connected to a generator with static excitation. The earthing must be connected to the
earthing brush. The coupling device 7XR61 must be complemented by the external
resistors 3PP1336 if the circulating current is apt to exceed 0.2 A due to the 6th
harmonic component in the excitation voltage. This can be the cause with excitation
voltages UExc of 150 V and higher. The IEE 1 input evaluates the earth fault current
flowing between the rotor and the ground as a result of injecting a voltage into the rotor
circuit by means of the additional source device 7XR61. The matching factor FACTOR
IEE1 is set to = 1.0.
Figure A-34 shows how a connection is made with only two plant-side voltage
transformers in open delta connection (V connection).
Figure A-33 shows a typical connection of the protection relay to a large asynchronous
motor. The voltages for voltage and zero voltage monitoring are usually picked up at
the busbar. Where several motors are connected to the busbar, the directional earth
fault protection allows to detect single-pole earth faults and thus to open breakers
selectively. A toroidal transformer is used for detection of the earth fault current.
Factor 0213 FACTOR IEE2 considers the transformation ratio between the primary
and the secondary side of the summation current transformer IEE 2.
Binary Inputs and The masking options for the binary inputs and outputs, i.e. the procedure for matching
Outputs the 7UM62 to the individual plant, are described in the SIPROTEC® 4 System Manual.
The tables of section A.9 in the Appendix show the allocation of all binary inputs and
outputs and of the LEDs to physical outputs when the device is delivered from the
factory. Please check also the conformity of the front panel labeling strips with the
actually configured signaling functions.
Changing Setting If binary inputs are used to switch setting groups, please observe the following:
Groups with Binary
• If the configuration is performed from the operator panel or using DIGSI® 4, the
Inputs
address 0302 CHANGE must be set to the option Binary Input.
• One binary input must be dedicated for the purpose of changing setting groups
when two groups are to be switched. This input is named “>Set Group Bit 0”.
• The logical binary input must be allocated to a physical input module in order to
allow control. An input is treated as not energized when it is not assigned to any
physical input.
• If the binary input is configured as a make circuit, i.e. as active when voltage is
applied (H active), the setting groups are assigned as follows:
– not energized: Setting group A
– energized: Setting group B
• The status of the signal controlling the binary input to activate a particular setting
group must remain constant as long as that particular group is to remain active.
Trip Circuit A circuit with two binary inputs (see Figure 2-121) is recommended for trip circuit
Monitoring monitoring. The binary inputs must have no common potential, and their operating
point must be sensible less than half the rating of the DC control voltage.
When using only one binary input, a resistor R is inserted into the circuit on the system
side, instead of the missing second binary input (see Figure 2-124). Please note that
the response times are as long as approx. 300 s. Section 2.39.2 shows how the
resistance is calculated.
3.1.3.1 General
Power Supply There are different ranges for the input voltage of the various power supplies. Refer to
Voltage the data for the 7UM62 ordering numbers in Section A.1 of the Appendix. The power
supplies with the ratings [60/110/125 VDC] and [110/125/220/250 VDC 115 VAC] are
interchangeable. Four jumper settings determine the rating. The settings necessary to
convert one range to the other are provided below in Sub-section 3.1.3.3, under the
side title “Processor Printed Circuit Board C–CPU–2”. When the device is delivered,
these jumpers are set according to the name-plate sticker. Typically, these settings
are not changed.
Live Status Contact The contacts of the live status (alarm) relay connected to terminals F3 and F4 of the
device can be either normally closed or normally open. The choice is made with the
setting of jumper X40. The appropriate setting of the jumper for the contact type
desired, and the location of the jumper on the printed circuit board, are described
below in “Processor Printed Circuit Board C–CPU–2“.
Nominal Currents The rating of the current input transformers of the device can be changed to 1 A or 5 A
with jumper settings that determine the secondary loading of the transformers. When
the device is delivered, these jumpers are set according to the name-plate sticker. The
physical arrangements of these jumpers that correspond to the different current
ratings are described below, Subsection 3.1.3.3 “C-I/O–2 Input/Output Board” for side
1 and „C-I/O–6 Input/Output Board“ for side 2.
All the relevant jumpers of one side must be in the same position, i.e. there must be
one of the jumpers X61 through X64 for each of the input transformers and additionally
the common jumper X60.
If nominal current ratings are changed, then the new ratings must be altered under
Addresses 203 IN-SEC I-SIDE1 or 0212 IN-SEC I-SIDE2 in the Power
System Data1 (see Sub-section 2.3).
Note:
The jumper settings must correspond to the secondary device currents configured at
addresses 0203 and 0212. If they do not, the device is blocked and outputs an alarm.
Control Voltages When the device is delivered from the factory, the binary inputs are set to operate with
for Binary Inputs a DC control voltage that corresponds to the rated DC voltage of the power supply. In
general, to optimize the operation of the inputs, the pickup voltage of the inputs should
be set to most closely match the actual control voltage being used. In some cases
such as the one described in the note below, lowering the pickup voltage might be
necessary. Each binary input has a pickup voltage that can be independently
adjusted; therefore, each input can be set according to the function performed.
A jumper position is changed to adjust the pickup voltage of a binary input. The
physical arrangement of the binary input jumpers in relation to the pickup voltages is
explained below, Sub-section 3.1.3.3.
Note:
If the 7UM62 performs trip circuit monitoring, two binary inputs, or one binary input and
a resistor, are connected in series. The pickup voltage of these inputs must be less
than half of the nominal DC voltage of the trip circuit.
Changeover Input/output modules can have relays that are equipped with changeover contacts.
Contacts The device terminals can be connected to either the NC or the NO contact; the choice
is made by jumpers. The relays and cards for which this applies are stated in Section
3.1.3.3 under the side titles "C–I/O–2 Input/Output Board" and "C–I/O–6 Input/Output
Board".
Measuring The measuring transducers TD 1 (e.g. for DC voltage/DC current protection) and TD
Transducers 2 (e.g. for input of the temperature for the overload protection) allow to select whether
voltages or currents will be processed as input quantities. To change the default
setting (measured quantities will be voltages), a few jumpers must be moved. An
overview of the jumper settings is given in the Tables 3-14 and 3-15 in Section 3.1.3.3
under the side title “C–I/O–6 Input/Output Board“.
Caution!
If the jumpers are set to “current” input, connection of a voltage may destroy the board!
For measuring transducer TD 3 (detects e.g. the excitation voltage for the
underexcitation protection) an analog low-pass can be activated or deactivated; the
choice is made by jumpers. For more information see Table 3-16 in Section 3.1.3.3
under the side title “C–I/O–6 Input/Output Board“.
Note:
The jumper settings must correspond to the mode set at addresses 0295, 0296 (volt-
age or current input) and 0297 (with/without filter). If they do not, the device is blocked
and outputs an alarm.
Exchanging The serial interfaces can only be exchanged in the versions for panel flush mounting
Interfaces and cubicle mounting. Which interfaces can be exchanged, and how this is done, is
described in Section 3.1.3.4 under the side title “Exchanging Interface Modules“.
Terminating For reliable data transmission, an RS 485 bus or the electrical Profibus DP should be
Resistors for terminated with resistors at the last device on the bus. The printed circuit boards
RS485 and Profibus (p.c.b.) of the C–CPU–2 processor module and of the RS485 or Profibus interface
DP (Electrical) module are equipped for this purpose with terminating resistors that are switched in
by means of jumpers. Only one of the three possibilities may be used. The physical
location of the jumpers on the p.c.b. is described in Section 3.1.3.3 under the side title
“Processor Printed Circuit Board C–CPU–2“ for the C–CPU–2 processor module, and
in Section 3.1.3.4 under the side title “Serial Interfaces with Bus Capability“ for the
interface modules. Both jumpers must always have the same setting.
As delivered from the factory, the resistors are switched out.
Spare Parts Spare parts can be the battery that provides for storage of the data in the battery-
buffered RAM in case of a power failure, and the miniature fuse of the internal power
supply. Their physical location is shown in Figure 3-7. The ratings of the fuse are
printed on the board next to the fuse itself. When exchanging the fuse, please observe
the hints given in the SIPROTEC®4 System Manual in the chapter “Maintenance”.
Important!
It is assumed for the following steps that the device is not operative.
To perform work on the printed circuit boards, such as checking or moving switching
elements or exchanging modules, the buffer battery or the miniature fuse, proceed as
follows:
Caution!
Jumper-setting changes that affect nominal values of the device render the ordering
number and the corresponding nominal values on the nameplate sticker invalid. If
such changes are necessary, the changes should be clearly and fully noted on the
device. Self adhesive stickers are available that can be used as replacement
nameplates.
Caution!
Electrostatic discharges through the connections of the components, wiring, plugs,
and jumpers must be avoided. Wearing a grounded wrist strap is preferred. Otherwise,
first touch a grounded metal part. Do not insert or remove the port plugs under live
conditions!
o At one end, disconnect the ribbon-cable between the front cover and the CPU board
(). To disconnect the cable, push up the top latch of the plug connector and push
down the bottom latch of the plug connector. Carefully pull off the front cover.
o Disconnect the ribbon-cables between the C-CPU-2 board () and the I/O boards (
to , depending on the variant ordered).
o Remove the boards and set them on the grounded mat to protect them from ESD
damage. A greater effort is required to withdraw the CPU board, especially in versions
of the device for surface-mounting, because of the communication connectors.
o Check the jumpers according to Figures 3-7 to 3-11, and Tables 3-1 to 3-8. Change
or remove the jumpers as necessary.
The locations of the printed circuit boards are shown in Figures 3-5 (for 1/2 Size
Housing) and 3-6 (for Full Size Housing).

of the appropriate jumpers.
Jumpers X105 through X110 must be set on the same position.

On delivery the jumpers are always set according to the configuration ordered.
With jumper X111, CTS is activated which is necessary for the communication with
the modem.
Table 3-5 Jumper setting of CTS (Clear-To-Send) on the processor printed circuit
board C-CPU-2
Jumper setting 2–3: the connection to the modem is usually done with star coupler
or optical fibre converter. Therefore the modem control signal according to RS232
standard DIN 66020 is not available. Modem signals are not required since communi-
cation to SIPROTEC® devices is always carried out in the half duplex mode. Use con-
netion cable with ordering number 7XV5100–4.
Jumper setting 1–2: this setting makes the modem signal available, i. e. for a direct
RS232-connection between the SIPROTEC® device and the modem this setting can
be selected optionally. We recommend to use a standard RS232 modem connection
cable (converter 9-pole on 25-pole).
Note: For a direct connection to DIGSI® 4 with interface RS232 jumper X111 must be
plugged in position 2–3.
If there are no external matching resistors in the system, the last devices on a
RS485-bus must be configured via jumpers X103 and X104.

Caution!
If the jumpers are set to “current” input, connection of a voltage may destroy the board!
Note:
The jumper settings must correspond to the mode set at addresses 0295, 0296 (volt-
age or current input) and 0297 (with/without filter). If they do not, the device is blocked
and outputs an alarm. After any changes to the jumper settings, you should therefore
immediately change the corresponding parameter settings using DIGSI® 4.
Jumpers X71, X72 and X73 on the I/O-6 board are used to set the bus address and
must not be changed. Table 3-17 shows the factory setting of the jumpers.
Note:
Measuring transducers that are not used should be shorted at the input terminals.
Exchanging The interface modules are located on the C–CPU–2 board ( in Figure 3-5 and 3-6).

Serial Interfaces If the device variant used has interfaces with bus capability, the bus should be
with Bus Capability terminated with resistors at the last device on the bus. In the case of the 7UM62, these
are variants with RS485 or Profibus interfaces.
The terminating resistors are located on the RS485 or Profibus interface module,
which is on the C–CPU–2 board ( in Figure 3-5 and 3-6), or directly on the p.c.b. of
the CPU–2 board (see Section 3.1.3.3 under the side title “Processor Printed Circuit
Board C–CPU–2“, Table 3-6).
Figure 3-12 shows a view of the C–CPU–2 board with the location of the modules.
The module for the RS485 interface is shown in Figure 3-13, the module for the
Profibus interface in Figure 3-14.
On delivery the jumpers are set so that the terminating resistors are switched out. Both
jumpers of a module must be set on the same position.

Terminating resistors can also be implemented outside the device (e.g. in the plug
connectors). In that case the terminating resistors provided on the RS485/Profibus
interface module or directly on the C-CPU-2 board card must be switched out (refer
Figure 3-8). In that case the terminating resistors provided on the RS485/Profibus
interface module or directly on the C-CPU-2 board card must be switched out.
RS232 can be changed to RS485 and vice versa by setting the jumpers on the
interface cards. Figure 3-13 shows the physical location of the jumpers. Table 3-19
shows which jumper settings are associated to RS232 and RS485 respectively. When
the device is delivered from the factory, the jumper setting corresponds to the
configuration ordered and need not be changed.
Table 3-19 Configuration of Jumpers for RS 232 or RS 485 on the Interface Card
Analog Output The AN20 analog output board (see Figure 3-15) has 2 floating channels with a current
range of 0 to 20 mA (unipolar, max. 350 Ω).
The location on the C–CPU–2 board is “B” or/and “D” depending on the variant
ordered (see Figure 3-12).
o Carefully insert the boards into the case. The installation locations of the boards are
shown in Figures 3-5 and 3-6. For the model of the device designed for surface-
mounting, use the metal lever to insert the C–CPU–2 board. The installation is easier
with the lever.
o By first attaching to the I/O board(s), connect the ribbon cable between the I/O
board(s) and the C–CPU–2 board. Be especially careful not to bend any of the
connector pins! Do not use any force! Be sure that the plug connectors latch.
o Connect the ribbon cable between the C–CPU–2 board and the front cover. Be
especially careful not to bend any of the connector pins! Do not use any force! Be sure
that the plug connectors latch.
o Close the locking clips of the plug connectors.
o Carefully replace the front cover being mindful of the ribbon-cable. Fasten the cover
to the case with the screws.
o Insert and tighten the screw-posts for the D-subminiature connector at location “A” on
the rear of the device. This activity does not apply if the device is for surface mounting.
o Insert and tighten the screws for the communication interfaces at locations “B” and “C”
on the back panel of the device. This activity does not apply if the device is for surface
mounting.
o Replace the four corner covers.
The following tables shows the pin-assignments for the various serial interfaces and
for the time synchronization interface of the device.
Operator Interface When the recommended communication cable is used, correct connection between
at Front the SIPROTEC® device and the PC is automatically ensured. See the Appendix, Sub-
section A.1 for an ordering description of the cable.
System Interface When a serial interface of the device is connected to a a central control system
(SCADA), the data connection must be checked. A visual check of the transmit
channel and the receive channel is important. In the RS232 and the FO interface,
each connection is dedicated to one transmission direction. The data output of one
device must be connected to the data input of the other device, and vice versa.
The data cable connections must conform to DIN 66020 and ISO 2110 (see also Table
3-20):
− TxD data transmit
− RxD data receive
− RTS request to send
− CTS request to send
− GND signal/chassis ground
The cable screen is to be grounded at both ends. In environments with extremely high
electromagnetic interference, the EMC immunity can be improved by running the GND
conductor as a separate, individually screened wire pair.
The location of the connections is shown in Figure 3-16.

RS 485 The RS 485 interface is capable of half-duplex mode with the signals A/A’ and B/B’
Termination with a common relative potential C/C’ (GND). Verify that only the last device on the
bus has the terminating resistors connected, and that the other devices on the bus do
not. The jumpers for the terminating resistors are on the interface card mounted on the
C–CPU–2 board. Refer to Figure 3-13 (RS485) and to Figure 3-14 (Profibus).
Terminating resistors can also be implemented outside the device (e.g. in the plug
connectors). In that case the terminating resistors provided on the interface card must
be switched out.
If the bus is extended, make sure again that only the last device on the bus has the
terminating resistors switched-in, and that all other devices on the bus do not.

Optical Fibers Signals transmitted via optical fibers are unaffected by interference. The fibers
guarantee electrical isolation between the connections. Transmit and receive
connections are shown with the symbols for transmit and for receive.
The normal setting for the optical fiber interface is ”Light off.” If this setting is to be
changed, use the operating program DIGSI® 4, as described in the SIPROTEC® 4–
System Manual.
WARNING!
Laser rays! Do not look directly into the optical fiber cables!
General The device connections must be checked to ensure the correct integration of the
device e.g. in the cubicle. The check includes, among others, the wiring and the
functionality as specified in the set of drawings, the visual inspection of the protection
system and a simplified functional test of the protective device.
Auxiliary Voltage Before applying power supply voltage or measuring quantities for the first time, be
Supply sure the device has been in the operating area for at least two hours. This time period
allows the device to attain temperature equilibrium, and prevents dampness and
condensation from occurring.
Note:
If a redundant supply is used, there must be a permanent, i.e. uninterruptible
connection between the minus polarity connectors of system 1 and system 2 of the
d.c. voltage supply (no switching device, no fuse), because otherwise there is a risk
of voltage doubling in case of a double earth fault.
o Close the protective switches to apply voltage to the power supply. Check the polarity
and magnitude of the voltage at the device terminals or at the connector modules.
Visual Inspection Check the cubicle and the devices for damage, condition of the connections etc., and
device earthing.
Secondary Testing This test does not undertake to check the individual protection functions for the
accuracy of their pick-up values and characteristic curves. Unlike analog electronic or
electromechanical protective devices, no protection function test is required within the
framework of the device test, since this is ensured by the factory tests. Protection
functions are only used to check the device connections.
A plausibility check of the analog-digital converter with the operational measured
values is sufficient since the subsequent processing of the measured values is
numerical and thus internal failures of protection functions can be ruled out.
Where secondary tests are to be performed, a three-phase test equipment providing
test currents and voltages is recommended (e.g. Omicron CMC 56 for manual and
automatic testing). The phase angle between currents and voltages should be
continuously controllable.
The accuracy which can be achieved during testing depends on the accuracy of the
testing equipment. The accuracy values specified in the Technical data can only be
reproduced under the reference conditions set down in IEC 60255 resp. VDE 0435/
part 303 and with the use of precision measuring instruments.
Tests can be performed using the currently set values or the default values.
If unsymmetrical currents and voltages occur during the tests it is likely that the
asymmetry monitoring will frequently operate. This is of no concern because the
condition of steady-state measured values is monitored and, under normal operating
conditions, these are symmetrical; under short circuit conditions these monitoring
systems are not effective.
Note: During dynamic testing, at least one a.c. measured quantity should be present
at one of the analog inputs, with a sufficient amplitude.
The measured quantities of the earth paths (IEE, UE) cannot be used for the integrated
sampling frequency adaptation. During tests concerning IEE or UE, at least one a.c.
measured quantity must be applied to one of the phase inputs.
Secondary Test of A test set with 6 current outputs is recommended for secondary testing. This section
the Differential gives you hints how to proceed if less current sources are available. The test current
Protection can be injected individually for each winding, thus simulating each time a transformer
fault with single-ended infeed.
The preset parameter for I-DIFF> as pick-up value (address 2021) applies for three
or two-phase testing. The pickup value for single-phase testing depends on the
method the zero sequence current is treated within the relay:
If the zero sequence current is eliminated, then the pickup value is increased to 1.5
times the set value because of the elimination of the zero sequence current; this
corresponds to conventional circuitry when the current is fed in via matching
transformers.
If the zero sequence current is not eliminated (isolated starpoint), the pickup value
corresponds to the setting value I-DIFF> even during single-phase testing.
Checking the pickup value is performed by slowly increasing the test current for each
winding with the test set. Tripping occurs when the pickup value, converted according
to the matching factor, is reached. When the test current falls below approximately 0.7
times the pickup value, the relay drops off.
In the method described above, the pickup values for single-ended infeed are tested.
It is also possible to check the entire characteristic. Since trip current and restraint
current cannot be fed in separately (they can, however, be read out separately in the
test measurements), a separate test current has to be applied to each of the two
windings.
When testing with the operational parameters, it should be noted that the setting value
IDIFF > refers to the rated current of the transformer, i.e. current which results from:
Furthermore, the pickup values can change with single -and two-phase testing
depending on the vector group of the protected transformer; this corresponds to
conventional circuitry, when currents are applied via matching current transformers.
Table 3-23 shows these changes as a factor kVG depending on the vector group and
the type of fault, for three-phase transformers.
In order to obtain the pickup value, the setting value I-DIFF> (parameter address
2021) must be multiplied by the factor
I N Transf
- ⋅ k VG
----------------------------------
I N CT (primary)
Table 3-23 Correction Factor kVG Depending on Vector Group and Fault Type
The pickup values are checked for each winding by slowly increasing the test current
with the secondary test set. Tripping is initiated when the converted pickup value is
reached.
In this case the rated current of the winding is practically equal to the current
transformer rated current. Thus, the pickup value (referred to the rated relay current)
complies with the set IDIFF> of the relay when three or two-phase testing is performed
(kVG = 1 for reference winding). With single-phase testing and zero sequence current
elimination, a pickup value 1.5 times higher must be expected.
The following applies for the secondary winding:
When testing this winding, the pickup value (referred to the rated relay current) will
amount to:
Because of the odd vector group numeral, the following pickup values apply:

Single-phase kVG = √3 - = 1.52 ⋅ IDIFF >

Wiring It is particularly important to check the correct wiring and allocation of all device
interfaces. The test function described in section 3.3.3 for checking the binary inputs
and outputs is a useful instrument for this. For analog inputs a plausibility check can
be performed as described above under the side title “Secondary Testing”.
Functional Test The only functional test required for protective relays is a plausibility check of the
operational measured values by means of some secondary test equipment; this is to
ensure that no damage has occurred during transit (see also side title “Secondary
Testing”).
Undervoltage Note: In devices where the undervoltage protection function is configured and
Protection activated, please note the following: special measures have been taken to ensure that
the device does not pick up immediately after applying the auxiliary power supply, as
a result of the measuring voltage that is not yet present at the moment of power-up.
However, the device does pick up as soon as operating state 1 (measuring quantities
exist) has been attained.
LED Indications After tests which cause LED indications to appear, these should be reset, at least once
by each of the possible methods: the reset bottom on the front plate and via the remote
reset relay. Please note that LEDs are automatically reset when a new fault occurs,
and that you can choose whether a new annunciation is made on pickup or on output
of a trip command (parameter 7110 FltDisp.LED/LCD).
Test Switches Check the functions of all test switches that are installed for the purposes of secondary
testing and isolation of the device. Of particular importance are test switches in current
transformer circuits. Be sure these switches short-circuit the current transformers
when they are in the test mode.
Warning!
The following procedures are carried out with dangerous voltages present. Therefore,
only qualified people who are familiar with and adhere to the safety procedures and
precautionary measures shall perform the procedures.
This test is performed to ensure that the protective device is correctly integrated into
the plant to be protected.
One important step in the test is the check of the protection configuration (masking and
setting values) for conformity with the plant requirements.
An integration test across all interfaces allows to check on one hand the cubicle wiring
and the functionality in accordance with the set of drawings, and on the other hand the
correct wiring between the sensor or transformer and the protective device.
This test does not undertake to check the individual protection functions for the
accuracy of their pick-up values and characteristic curves.
Auxiliary Voltage Check the voltage magnitude and polarity at the input terminals.
Supply
Note:
If a redundant supply is used, there must be a permanent, i.e. uninterruptible
connection between the minus polarity connectors of system 1 and system 2 of the
d.c. voltage supply (no switching device, no fuse), because otherwise there is a risk
of voltage doubling in case of a double earth fault.
Caution!
Operating the device on a battery charger without a connected battery can lead to
unusually high voltages and consequently, the destruction of the device. For limit
values see Sub-section 4.1.2 under Technical Data.
Visual Inspection − Check the cubicle and the devices for damage;
− Check the earthing of the cubicle and of the protective device;
− Check the external cabling for condition and completeness.
Inventory of the In order to check the protection configuration (masking and setting values) for
Technical Plant conformity with the plant requirements, it is necessary to make an inventory of the
Data technical data for the individual components of the primary plant. These components
include, among others, the generator or motor, the unit transformer (step-up
transformer) and the voltage and current transformers.
Where deviations from the planning data are found, the settings of the protection must
be modified accordingly.
Analog Inputs The check of the current and voltage transformer circuits includes:
• Inventory of the technical data
• Visual inspection of the transformers, e.g. for damage, mounting position and
connections
• Check of the transformer earthing, especially the earthing of the broken delta
winding in only one phase
• Check of the cabling for conformity with the circuit diagram
Auxiliary Contact of Since it is very important for the undervoltage protection, the impedance protection
VT Protective and the voltage-dependent definite time and inverse time overcurrent protection that
Switches these functions are blocked automatically if the circuit breaker for the voltage
transformers has tripped, the blocking should be checked along with the voltage
circuits. Open for this the VT protective switches.
When the voltage on the binary input connected to this auxiliary contact is removed,
the message “>FAIL:Feeder VT ON” should appear in the Event Log. When the
voltage is restored, the message “>FAIL:Feeder VT OFF” should occur. If one of
these messages does not appear, then the connections and the configuration settings
should be checked. If the ON and OFF messages are exchanged, then the breaker
auxiliary contact type should be checked and corrected if necessary.
3.3 Commissioning
Warning!
When operating an electrical device, certain parts of the device inevitably have
dangerous voltages. Severe personal injury or property damage can result if the
device is not handled properly.
Only qualified people shall work on and around this device after becoming thoroughly
familiar with all warnings and safety notices in this instruction manual as well as with
the applicable safety steps, safety regulations, and precautionary measures.
The main points to observe are:
• The device is to be grounded to the substation ground before any other connections
are made.
• Hazardous voltages can exist in the power supply and at the connections to current
transformers, voltage transformers, and test circuits.
• Hazardous voltages can be present in the device even after the power supply
voltage has been removed, i.e. capacitors can still be charged.
• After removing voltage from the power supply, wait a minimum of 10 seconds
before re-energizing the power supply. This wait allows the initial conditions to be
firmly established before the device is re-energized.
• The limit values given in Technical Data (Chapter 10) must not be exceeded, neither
during testing nor during commissioning.
When testing the device with directly connected test equipment, make sure that no
other measurement quantities are connected and that the trip and close circuits to the
circuit breakers and other primary switches are disconnected from the device.
DANGER!
Current transformer secondary circuits must be short-circuited before the
current leads to the device are disconnected!
If test switches are installed that automatically short-circuit the current transformer
circuits, opening these test switches (placing them in the "Test" position) is sufficient
provided the short-circuit function has been previously tested.
Warning!
The following procedures are carried out with dangerous voltages present. Therefore,
only qualified people who are familiar with and adhere to the safety procedures and
precautionary measures shall perform the procedures.
Preliminary Notes If the device provides a system interface, and if this interface is used to communicate
with a central or master computer system, the DIGSI® 4 software can be used to test
whether the messages are being transmitted correctly. This test option should
however definitely not be used while the device is in service on a live system.
DANGER!
The initiation or extraction of messages via the system interface using the test
function constitutes an actual exchange of information between the device and
the control system. Connected plant such as e.g. circuit breakers or isolators
may be switched as a result of this!
Note: After termination of the test mode, the device will reboot. Thereby, all
annunciation buffers are erased. If required, the events in these buffers should be
extracted with DIGSI® 4 prior to the test.
The interface test can be done using DIGSI® 4 in the online operating mode:
G Open the Online directory by double-clicking; the operating functions for the
device appear.
G Click on Test; the function selection appears in the right half of the screen.
G In the view of the list, double click on the dialog box Test–Indications for
System Interface. The dialog box Generate Indications is opened (refer
to Figure 3-17).
Structure of the In the column Indication, the display text of all messages are shown, which were
Test Dialogue Box assigned to the system interface in the matrix during configuration. In the column
SETPOINT status the state of the message that has to be tested can be defined.
Depending on the message type, different prompts are provided for this purpose (e.g.
event coming/event going). By clicking in a field, it becomes possible to select
the desired state in a pull-down list.
Changing the Following the first operation of one of the keys in the column Action a prompt for the
Operating State entry of password No. 6 (for hardware test menus) appears. After correct entry of the
password, individual messages can be initiated. To do this, click on the button Send
in the corresponding line. The corresponding message is initiated and can now be
retrieved as part of the operational alarms in the SIPROTEC® device, as well as from
the central or master station of the plant.
Further tests remain possible while the dialog box is open.
Test in the For all information that has to be transmitted to the control system, open the drop-
Transmission down list in the column SETPOINT status and test the alternatives listed there:
Direction
G Ensure that any switching operations that may result from these tests can be
executed without danger (see above under DANGER!).
G With the function to be tested, click on send, and check that the corresponding
information is received at the central or master station, and, if required, the
expected response results.
Exiting the To end the interface test, click on Close. The dialog box closes. The device becomes
Procedure unavailable for a brief start-up period immediately after this.
Preliminary Notes The binary inputs, outputs, and LEDs of a SIPROTEC®4 device can be individually
and precisely controlled in DIGSI® 4. This feature can be used, for example, to verify
control wiring from the device to substation equipment (operational checks), during
commissioning. This test feature shall not be used while the device is in service on a
live system.
DANGER!
Changing the status of a binary input or output using the test feature of DIGSI® 4
results in an actual and immediate, corresponding change in the SIPROTEC®
device. Connected equipment such as circuit breakers will be operated by these
actions!
Note: After the Hardware Test is complete, the device enters a start-up phase. All
message buffers are erased. If necessary, the buffer contents can be read out and
saved using DIGSI® 4.
The interface test can be done using DIGSI® 4 in the online operating mode:
G Open the Online directory by double-clicking; the operating functions for the
device appear.
G Click on Test; the function selection appears in the right half of the window.
G Double-click in the list view on Hardware Test. The dialog box of the same name
opens (see Figure 3-18).
Hardware Test: The dialog box is horizontally divided into three groups: BI for binary inputs, REL for
Dialog Box output relays, and LED for light-emitting diodes. Each of these groups is associated
with an appropriately marked switching area. By clicking in an area, components
within the associated group can be turned on or off.
In the Status column, the present conditions of the hardware components are
symbolically shown. The present physical conditions of the binary inputs and output
relays are shown as symbols for open and closed contacts. The present condition of
a light-emitting diode is shown as the symbol for an LED, turned on or off.
The possible intended condition of a hardware component is indicated with clear text
under the Schedule column, which is next to the Status column. The intended
condition offered for a component is always the opposite of the present state.
The right-most column indicates the operating equipment, commands, or messages
that are configured (masked) to the hardware components.
Changing The displays of the intended conditions are shown as switching fields. To change the
Hardware condition of a hardware component, click on the associated switching field in the
Conditions Schedule column.
If the password was activated for Hardware Test, then Password No. 6 will be
requested before the first hardware modification is allowed. Only after entry of the
correct password a condition change will be executed. Further condition changes
remain possible while the dialog box is open.
Testing the Output You can make each output relay pick up individually, and in this way test the wiring
Relays between the output relays of the 7UM62 and the plant, without having to generate the
indications allocated to them. As soon as the first condition change is initiated for any
output relay, all output relays are separated from the device functionality and can now
only be operated by the Hardware Test function. This means, for example, that a
switching command that is caused by a protection function or by a control command
from the operator panel will not be executed.
G Make sure that there is no risk involved in carrying out the switching operations
triggered by the output relays (see above under DANGER!).
G Test each output relay using the associated Scheduled field in the dialog box.
G Close the test procedure (see side title below “Ending the procedure”) to avoid
unintentional switching operations in the course of further testing.
Testing the Binary To test the wiring between the plant and the binary inputs of the 7UM62, you must
Inputs initiate in the plant the condition that activates the respective input and read out the
effect at the device.
To do so, open once again the dialog box Hardware Test to view the physical
position of the binary input. No password is required yet.
G Trigger in the plant each of the functions that activates the binary input.
G Check the reaction in the Status column of the dialog box. To do so, the dialog
box must be updated. This is described below under the side title “Updating the
display”.
If you want to check the effects of a binary input signal without actually performing
switching operations in the plant, you can do so by activating individual binary inputs
by means of the Hardware Test function. As soon as you have initiated the first
condition change of a binary input, and entered password no. 6, all binary inputs are
separated from the device side functionality and can only be operated by the
Hardware Test function. This means, for example, that external signals to binary
inputs would be ignored by the device if their status conditions change and the test
procedure had not been closed.
G Close the test procedure (see side title below “Ending the procedure”).
LED Test The LEDs can be tested in a similar way as other I/O components. As soon as the first
condition change is initiated for any output relay, all output relays are separated from
the device functionality and can now only be operated by the Hardware Test function.
This means, for example, that no LED will light up on receiving a signal from a
protection function, or in case of an LED reset from the device front panel.
Updating the When the dialog box Hardware Test is opened, the present conditions of the
Display hardware components at that moment are read in and displayed. An update occurs:
− for each component, if a command to change the condition is successfully
performed,
− for all hardware components if the Update field is clicked,
− for all hardware components with cyclical updating if the Automatic Update
(20sec) field is marked.
Ending the To end the interface test, click on Close. The device becomes unavailable for a brief
Procedure start-up period immediately after this. The dialog box closes. Then all hardware
components are returned to the operating conditions.
If the device has a breaker failure protection, and that function is used, its integration
in the plant must be checked under operating conditions.
It is particularly important for tests within the plant that the trip command in case of a
breaker failure should be correctly retransmitted to the adjacent circuit breakers.
Adjacent circuit breakers are those breakers that must trip in case of a breaker failure
to cut off the short-circuit current. This means that they are those circuit breakers that
feed the faulted line.
It is not possible to define a generally applicable, detailed test specification since the
definition of adjacent circuit breakers depends to a large extent of the plant layout.
7UM62 can be equipped with up to 2x2 analog outputs. Where analog outputs are
provided, and used, their functioning should be tested.
Since various types of measured values or events can be output, the test to be
performed depends on the type of values for which it will be used. These values must
be generated (e.g. with some secondary test equipment).
Make sure that the values are correctly output at their destination.
A 7UM62 has a vast capability for allowing functions to be defined by the user,
especially with the CFC logic. Any special function or logic added to the device must
be checked.
Naturally, general test procedures cannot be given. Rather, the configuration of these
user-defined functions and the necessary associated conditions must be known and
verified. Of particular importance are the possible interlocking conditions of the circuit
breakers and other primary switching devices. They must be considered and tested.
The rotor earth fault protection can be checked with the machine at stand-still. The
coupling unit, however, must be supplied with an external a.c. voltage 100 V to 125 V,
or 230 V (50 Hz or 60 Hz). Please refer also to connection diagram Figure 2-95 in
Section 2.30.1).
Switch rotor earth fault protection (address 6001 ROTOR E/F) to Block. Relay.
In the case of machines with rotating rectifier excitation (Figure 3-19 left), an earth fault
is installed between the two measurement slip rings with the measurement brushes in
place. In case of machines with excitation via slip rings (Figure 3-19 right) the earth
fault is installed between one slip ring and earth. The unit now measures as earth
impedance only the reactance of the coupling unit and the brush resistance (in series
with a protective resistor for the coupling capacitors and/or a damping resistor). These
values can be read out under the Operational Measured Values:
R total = x.xx kΩ
X total = x.xx kΩ
ϕZtotal = z.z °
Rinput corresponds to the series resistance (brushes plus protective resistor) and
Xinput corresponds to the capacitive reactance (a negative value indicates an
inductive reactance). If both values are indicated as 0, then the connections of Urotor
or Irotor have wrong polarity. Change the polarity of one of the connections and repeat
the measurement. It must then be checked that the setting values

After the completion of the test, check that all provisional measures for testing have
been reversed:
− Earthing bridge or resistor has been removed,
− Measurement circuit has been closed,
− Controller unit connected to its operational supply a.c. voltage (refer also
connection diagram in Figure 2-95 in Section 2.25.1).
Tests with the running machine are described later under section 3.4.9.
The rotor earth fault protection can be checked with the machine at stand-still. For this
purpose, the series device 7XT71 must be supplied with an external AC voltage of
100 V to 125 V AC (see also to connection diagram Figure A-36 in the Appendix).
Switch the rotor earth fault protection (address 6101 REF 1-3Hz) to Block relay.
In fault-free condition, the following operational measured values are read out from the
protection device and evaluated (see Table 3-24).The operational measured values
can be found in the earth fault measured values (in DIGSI see tab “earth fault mea-
sured values”).
Table 3-24 Operational Measured Values of the Rotor Earth Fault Protection
After this the fault resistors for the warning and the trip stage are installed, and the op-
erational measured value Rearth is read out. The two measured values are the basis
for the setting values of the warning stage (address 6102 RE< WARN) and the trip
stage (address 6104 RE<< TRIP).
Finally, the warning and the trip stage are checked. The test resistance for this is ap-
prox. 90 % of the set value. On generators or motors with excitation by sliprings, the
test is performed for both sliprings.
Remove the earth fault resistor and lift the measuring brushes or interrupt the measur-
ing circuit. After a delay of approx. 10 s, the indication „REF 1-3Hz open“ is issued
(not masked on delivery). Re-close the measuring circuit.
If you want to perform an automatic test by means of a test resistor, this mechanism
needs to be tested as well. To do so, connect the test resistor at the slipring to the
earth, and activate the test via binary input („>Test REF 1-3Hz“). Next, check the
indications for the following four test steps to be performed.
1. Measuring circuits closed Indication „Test REF PASSED“
2. Open circuit at Indication „1 Cir. open“
1st coupling resistor
3. Open circuit at Indication „2 Cir. open“
2nd coupling resistor
4. Re-establish connections Indication „Test REF PASSED“
Stop the automatic test and check again the operational measured value Rearth. It
must display 999.9 kΩ.
Finally, switch the AC voltage source of the 7XT71 off. After about 5 s, the protection
device issues the indication „Fail REF 1-3Hz“ (not masked on delivery).
To eliminate interference which might originate from the running machine, in particular
from the excitation system, it is recommended to perform an additional operational
check as described in Section 3.4.9.2.
The 100-% stator earth fault protection can be checked with the machine at stand-still,
because the measuring principle for the earth resistance calculation is independent of
whether the machine is at stand-still, rotating or excited. As a prerequisite for the
check, however, a supply for the 20 Hz generator 7XT33 must be provided; depending
on the project in hand, this may be a DC voltage supply or an external voltage source
(3 x 100 V, 50/60 Hz) (see also the connection diagram of Figure A-37 in the Appen-
dix).
Switch the 100-% stator earth fault protection to Block relay (address 5301 100%
SEF-PROT.).
For the following parameters, the default settings must be maintained for a first com-
missioning.
5309 PHI I SEF = 0°
5310A SEF Rps = 0.0 Ω
5311A Rl-PARALLEL =∞ Ω
The measured quantities USEF and ISEF fed to the device can now be read out in the
earth fault measured values (in DIGSI under Ins (earth fault measured values)):
U SEF= xx.x V
I SEF= xx.x mA
Please note that these measurements are pure r.m.s. values which only correspond
to the 20 Hz quantities if the generator is standing still. The voltage measured is influ-
enced by the loading resistor RL, the 20 Hz resistance of the band pass (RBP approx.
8 Ω), the voltage divider (üVlt.Divider, usually 5/2) and, in the final analysis, by the 20 Hz
supply voltage (U20Hz generator, approx. 25 V). The value can be estimated as follows:
RL U 20Hz-generator
U SEF = ------------------------ ⋅ ---------------------------------------
R BP + R L ü Vlt.Divider
The flowing current ISEF is determined by the stator earth capacitance and is very
small.
The device calculates from these values the earth resistance RSEF referred to the pro-
tection device side. The primary earth resistance RSEFp on the machine side is ob-
tained by multiplying the secondary value with the conversion factor set in the Power
System Data 1 (address 275 FACTOR R SEF). Both resistance values, including the
phase angle between the 20 Hz voltage and the 20 Hz current (ϕSES = ϕU - ϕI) can be
read out in the operational measured values:
R SEF= = xxxx Ω
RSEFp= xxx.xx kΩ
j SEF= xx.x°
In fault-free condition, the measured phase angle ϕ SES across the existing stator
earth capacitances should be approx. –90°. If it is not, the value to complement it to –
90° must be determined and set as PHI I SEF = –90° – ϕ SES. If the value displayed
is, for example, ϕ SES = –75°, PHI I SEF = –15° must be set at address 5309. This
will change the measured value to approx. –90°.
The value displayed for R SEF must be in fault-free condition the maximum possible
value of 9999 Ω. The maximum value for the primary earth resistance R SEFp de-
pends on the selected conversion factor (FACTOR R SEF address 275).
Switch off the voltage supply for the 20 Hz generator, or block the binary input. The
indication „Failure SEF“ will appear (not masked on delivery). This proves that a
failure of the 20 Hz generator is reliably detected. If this indication appears already
with the 20 Hz generator in operation, the monitoring threshold (address 5307 U20
MIN) should be reduced. This can be the case if the loading resistance is very small
(< 1 Ω).
Now a variable resistor is inserted as earth resistance e.g. between generator star-
point and earth.
DANGER!
Hazardous voltages can be present in the generator even at stand-still. If the ex-
ternal 20 Hz bias voltage of the stator winding is switched on, it amounts to ap-
prox. 1 % to 3 % of the primary rated voltage of the generator to be protected!
Set the primary earth resistance to 0 Ω (short-circuit) and read out the operational
measured value R SEF. This value must be nearly zero. If the transfer resistance of
the earthing or neutral transformer is not negligible, it can be compensated. To do so,
set the measured value R SES at address 5311A as SEF Rps.
Then the pickup value for the trip stage is specified. Set the primary earth resistance
to the tripping value (e.g. 2 kΩ) and read out the measured value R SEF. In case of
major deviations between fault resistance and measured value, the correction angle
PHI I SEF, address 5309, should be slightly modified for a better match. You can
also use for this the operational measured value PHI SEF. It may also be necessary
to slightly change SEF Rps.
Finally, the fault resistance is read out, and set as the tripping value at address 5304
R<< SEF TRIP.
Now the primary-side earth resistor for the alarm stage (e.g. 5 kΩ) is inserted, and the
fault resistance (R SEF) is read out. This value must be set at address 5302 as R<
SEF ALARM.
For the settings, only secondary values should be used. If you find during the conver-
sion from secondary to primary values that the theoretical conversion factor is not
quite correct, FACTOR R SEF should be modified to match the measuring results (for
conversion formulae refer to Section 2.29.2).
Finally, a series of measurements is performed, starting with 0 kΩ and proceeding in
steps of 1 kΩ. If changes are made to the correction angle (PHI I SEF address 5309)
or to the contact resistance (SEF Rps, address 5310A), the settings for the trip stage
(R<< SEF TRIP) and the alarm stage (R< SEF ALARM) must be matched as required.
Now the earth resistance is reduced to about 90 % of the resistance for the alarm
stage (address 5302 R< SEF ALARM). After the delay time T SEF ALARM set at ad-
dress 5303 (10 s on delivery), the stator earth fault protection issues an alarm
„SEF100 Alarm.“ (not masced on delivery).
Further reduce the earth resistance to 90 % of what the trip stage pickup value would
be for the protection device side (R<< SEF TRIP, address 5304). The protection is-
sues a pickup indication, and, after T SEF TRIP address 5305 (1 s on delivery), a
trip indication.
Remove the test resistor.
If the indication „20 Hz voltage missing” to be received from the 20 Hz generator
is marshalled to one of the binary inputs, and the delivery setting of this input has been
changed for this purpose, the binary input can be checked as well.
Switch off the supply voltages of the 20 Hz generator.
Feedback „>U20 failure“ (not masked on delivery).
Indication „Failure SEF“ (not masked on delivery).
Reconnect the supply voltages of the 20 Hz generator.
If you make use of the possibility to block the 100-% stator earth fault protection by
binary input, the functioning of the input should be checked.
Activate binary input „>SEF100 BLOCK“.
Feedback „SEF100 BLOCKED“.
Further tests are performed with the machine running (Section 3.4).
Note:
If within the framework of routine tests the band pass 7XT34 is to be checked as well,
short-circuit the earthing or neutral transformer on the secondary side with the ma-
chine standing still, and switch the 20 Hz generator on. Multiply the operational mea-
sured value I SES with the transformation ratio of the miniature CT (e.g. 400 A/ 5 A).
The current flow must be higher than 3 A. If the current is noticeably less, the reso-
nance frequency of the band pass has changed. It can be better matched by adding
or removing capacitors (see also operating instructions for the 7 XT33, Order No.
C53000–B1174–C129).
Finally, remove the shorting link and check the galvanic isolation with the operational
measured value U SEF.
You can now modify the plant voltage to match the conditions of the intended
application, and verify the response of the 7UM62. A voltage above or below the
threshold voltage (address 7204) (the appropriate choice is made under the address
7203) causes the protection to initiate first an alarm “DC Prot.pick.up” (not
marshalled on delivery), and after a time T DC = (address 7206) the alarm “DC Prot.
TRIP” (not marshalled on delivery).
The DC voltage protection is then switched operative (address 7201 DC
PROTECTION = ON) or – if it will not be used – switched off (DC PROTECTION =
OFF).
Control by Local At the end of commissioning, actual 7UM62 tripping and closing should be verified for
Command all the relevant circuit breakers and primary switching devices, unless this has been
done already in connection with the Hardware Test described in Section 3.3.3. The
feedback of the status of the primary equipment, through the equipment’s auxiliary
contacts to the binary inputs of the 7UM62, should be checked during the testing. Be
sure the 7UM62 always indicates the true position of the equipment in the device
messages.
The procedure for the control is described in SIPROTEC® 4–System Manual. Make
sure that the switching authority is set according to the source of commands that is
used. The switching mode can be chosen as interlocked or non-interlocked. Note that
non-interlocked switching presents safety risks.
Control from a If the device has a connection to a remote control center, trip/close tests should be
Remote Control performed from that control center as well. Here again, make sure that the switching
Center authority is set according to the source of commands that is used.
Warning!
When operating an electrical device, certain parts of the device inevitably have
dangerous voltages. Severe personal injury or property damage can result if the
device is not handled properly.
Only qualified people shall work on and around this device after becoming thoroughly
familiar with all warnings and safety notices in this instruction manual as well as with
the applicable safety steps, safety regulations, and precautionary measures.
Warning!
Primary tests must only be carried out by qualified personnel, who are familiar with the
commissioning of protection systems, the operation of the plant and the safety rules
and regulations (switching, earthing, etc.).
Safety Instructions All relevant safety rules and regulations (e.g. VDE 105, VBG4 or comparable national
regulations) must be complied with.
Before undertaking any work, observe the following “5 safety rules”:
1. Isolate from supply
2. Secure against accidental reclosing
3. Verify the safe isolation from supply
4. Perform earthing and short-circuiting
5. Cover or fence in live parts in the vicinity
The main points to observe are:
• The device is to be grounded to the substation ground before any other connections
are made.
• Hazardous voltages can exist in the power supply and at the connections to current
transformers, voltage transformers, and test circuits.
• Hazardous voltages can be present in the device even after the power supply
voltage has been removed, i.e. capacitors can still be charged.
• After removing voltage from the power supply, wait a minimum of 10 seconds
before re-energizing the power supply. This wait allows the initial conditions to be
firmly established before the device is re-energized.
• The limit values given in Technical Data (Section 4.1) must not be exceeded,
neither during testing nor during commissioning.
DANGER!
Current transformer secondary circuits must be short-circuited before the
current leads to the device are disconnected!
If test switches are installed that automatically short-circuit the current transformer
circuits, opening these test switches (placing them in the "Test" position) is sufficient
provided the short-circuit function has been previously tested.
All secondary test equipment must be removed. Connect measurement values. All
installation preparations according to sections 3.1 and 3.2 must have been completed.
Primary tests are performed with the generator.
Order of the Test Primary testing is usually performed in the following order:
Procedure − Short–circuit tests,
− Voltage tests,
− Earth fault tests,
− Synchronization,
− Tests with the generator connected to the network
The following hints are arranged in this order. All protection functions should be initially
switched OFF (condition as delivered from factory) so that they do not influence one
another. During primary testing the functions are progressively switched to being
operative. If a particular protection function is not required at all, it should be “de–
configured” (refer to Section 2.2). It is then treated as DISABLED.
Switching on of a particular function can be performed in two different ways. The
setting addresses concerned are shown in the respective sections.
− Block relay: The protection function is operative and outputs annunciations
and measured values. However, the trip command is blocked and it is not
transmitted to the trip matrix.
− Protection function ON: The protection function is operative and outputs
annunciations and measured values. The trip command activates the trip relays
which have been marshalled to the protection function. If the protection
command is not marshalled to any trip relay, tripping does not occur.
Preparation − Install an EMERGENCY OFF button for direct trip of the excitation
− Block all protection functions (= Block relay)
− Set the definite or inverse overcurrent protection function roughly to the nominal
generator current, and set the trip to only on the excitation
− Set the overvoltage protection function roughly to 30 % of the nominal generator
voltage for the short-circuit test, and to roughly 110 % of the nominal voltage for the
voltage tests, as well as to trip on excitation
Adaptation of Note:
Sampling
The device contains a sampling frequency adaptation; this ensures that the protection
Frequency
functions are always processed with algorithms matched to the actual frequency. This
explains the wide frequency range and the small frequency influence (refer to Section
4.34). However, it requires that measurement values be present before a dynamic test
can take place, so that the sampling frequency adaptation can operate. If a
measurement value is switched from 0 to the device without a different measurement
value having been present beforehand, an additional time delay of approximately
120 ms is incurred since the device must firstly calculate the frequency from the
measurement value. In addition, no output signal is possible if no measurement value
is connected. A trip signal, once issued, of course, is maintained for at least the
duration of the parameterized reset time (TMin TRIP CMD) (refer also to Section 2.3)
Operating Range of For commissioning tests with the generator, care should be taken that the operating
the Protection range of the protection functions as specified in section 4.34 is not exceeded and that
Functions the measuring quantities applied are high enough. Where tests are performed with
reduced pick-up values, the pick-up value may appear to deviate from the setting
value (e.g. in the unbalance stage or the earth fault protection) if the measuring
quantities are too small to block the protection function, i.e. if operating state 1 (=
protection function active) is not yet attained.
However, this effect will not interfere with commissioning since no checks of the pick-
up values are performed that involve the generator.
Commissioning The 7UM62 features a web-based commissioning tool to assist during commissioning,

and work with the browser can be found on an Internet website (www.siemens.sipro-
tec.de) in the download area of the “7SD52” protective relay (title: “Commissioning

• Connection to the rear service interface (port C):
IP address 141.143.255.160
To give you a first idea of the possibilities you have, the figures below show a selection
of displays.
Figure 3-21 shows the vectors of flowing currents. As the current direction towards the
protected object is defined as positive, the angle of the phase currents is rotated by
180°. The magnitudes are the same, and the phase rotation is the same as well. This
means that the current connection on side 1 and side 2 is OK. A similar display is avail-
able for the voltage and current vectors of side 2.
For a test of the differential protection, the differential and restraint currents are en-
tered in the characteristic. The characteristic shown is a function of the settings for the
differential protection. In Figure 3-22, a load current has been simulated. A small dif-
ferential current in phase L3 is visible.
General The checks of the current circuits are performed with the generator to ensure the
correct cabling, polarity, phase sequence, CT ratio etc., not in order to verify individual
protection functions in the device.
Preparation Switch unbalanced load protection (address 1701) and overload protection (address
1601) to Block relay.
With the primary plant voltage-free and earthed, install a three-pole short-circuit bridge
which is capable of carrying rated current (e.g. earthing isolator) to the generator line-
side terminals.
DANGER!
Primary measurements must only be carried out with the generator at stand–
still on disconnected and grounded equipment of the power system.
After the preparatory measures described in section 3.4.1, all current transformer
circuits (protection, measuring, metering) can be checked with the remanent
excitation.
Note on Testing The checks of the current transformer circuits are carried out with max. 20 % of the
rated transformer current. Tests with generator currents of more than 20 % are not
normally required for the digital protective device. Operation of the generator at rated
current during commissioning may only be necessary when the short-circuit
characteristic is measured for the first time.
Absolute Current The currents are stated among the operational measured values. They are read out
Values from the device front panel or from the PC via the operator interface and compared
with the actual measured values. If significant deviations are found, the CT
connections are not correct.
Phase Rotation The phase rotation must conform with the configured phase sequence (address 0271
PHASE SEQ. under Power System Data 1); if it does not, an indication “Fail Ph.
Seq.“ will be output. In such a case, the allocation of phases to the measuring
quantities must be checked and corrected, if necessary. The unbalanced load
(negative sequence) can be read out under the operational measured values. It must
be practically zero. If this is not the case, check for crossed current transformer leads:
If the unbalanced load amounts to about 1/3 of the phase currents then current is
flowing in only one or in only two of the phases.
If the unbalanced load amounts to about 2/3 of the phase currents, then one current
transformer has wrong polarity.
If the unbalanced load is about the same as the phase currents, then two phases have
been crossed.
After correcting the wrong connection, the test must be repeated.
Remove short–circuit bridges.
Calibrating the Set impedance protection (address 3301) to IMPEDANCE PROT. = Block relay:
Impedance
With the primary plant voltage-free and earthed, install a three-pole short-circuit bridge
Protection
which is capable of carrying rated current (e.g. earthing isolator) to the primary side of
the unit transformer.
DANGER!
Primary measurements must only be carried out with the machine at stand–still
on disconnected and earthed equipment of the power system.
Note on Testing A test with about 20 % of the rated generator current is sufficient for checking the
transformer connections and the operational measured values. If the relative short-
circuit voltage of the transformer is small, the voltage values measured are very low,
so that it may be necessary to increase the generator current somewhat. A test with
the full rated generator current is only required for the quantitative calibration of the
impedance protection (e.g. for calibrating the transformer uK).
The relay calculates from the currents and voltages the impedance between the point
of installation (voltage transformers) and the short-circuit bridge, i.e. normally the
short-circuit impedance of the unit transformer. Read out the reactance and resistance
values in the measured values. Note that the secondary values depend on the rated
relay current, 1 A or 5 A. In the case of the transformer impedance, the following
results:
Primary transformer impedance:

Preparation Before commencing any primary tests, make sure that the configured object is actually
the one you want to protect, and that the correct amplitude matching for the current
ratings of the protected object and the main primary c.t.s, and the correct vector group
matching are set.
Set the differential protection (address 2001) to Block. relay, or interrupt the trip
command lines.
The test arrangement varies dependent of the application.
On network power transformers and asynchronous machines a low-voltage test
equipment is preferably used. A low-voltage current source is used to energize the
protected object, which is completely disconnected from the network (Figure 3-23).
A short-circuit bridge, which is capable of carrying the test current, is installed outside
the protected zone and allows the symmetrical test current to flow.
On power station unit transformers and synchronous machines, the checks are
performed during the current tests, with the generator itself supplying the test current
(Figure 3-24). The current is produced by a three-pole short-circuit bridge which is
installed outside the protected zone and is capable of carrying rated current for a short
time. The generator is started but not yet excited. Check by means of remanent
currents that no current transformer is open or short-circuited. In order to achieve this,
read out the operational measured values and check the operational currents one by
one. Even when the currents and the measurement accuracy are still very small, the
described errors can already be detected.
The test current for commissioning tests must be at least 2 % of the rated relay
current.
7UM62 7UM62
7UM62
Symmetrical The operational measured values supplied by the 7UM62 allow a fast commissioning
Current Test without external instruments. The indices of the measured currents are defined as
follows:
The symbol for current I is followed by the phase identifier Lx and by the index of the
side of the protected object (e.g. the transformer winding). Example:
IL1S1 Current in phase L1 on side 1.
Angle If the current magnitudes are consistent, the next step is to check the phase angle
Measurement relations between the currents (ϕIL1S1, ϕIL2S1, ϕIL3S1, ϕIL1S2, ϕIL2S2, ϕIL3S2).
The angle differences are referred to winding L1 of side 1.
Check the angles that are output by the device for side 1 at Measurement →
Secondary Values → Angles. All angles are referred to IL1S1. Consequently, a
clockwise phase rotation should produce roughly the following results:
ϕL1S1 = 0°
ϕL2S1 = 240°
ϕL3S1 = 120°
If the angles are not correct, wrong polarity or phase interchange at side 1 is the
cause.
• Disconnect the protected object (shut down generator), and earth it,
• Check and correct the connections and the test arrangement,
• Repeat the test by renewed measurement request and re-check the measured
values.
Check the angles that are output by the device for side 2 at Measurement →
Secondary Values → Angles. All angles are referred to IL1S1. If the angles are
not correct, wrong polarity or phase interchange at side 2 is the cause; proceed as for
side 1.
The polarities of the through-flowing currents are here defined in such a manner, that
for currents of equal phase flowing through the protected object, the angle difference
at the two measuring points is 180° between currents of the same phase, provided that
the connections are correct. Exception: Transverse differential protection, where both
currents must be in phase.
The theoretical angles depend on the protected object and – in the case of
transformers – on the vector group. They are listed in Table 3-25 for clockwise phase
rotation.
The polarity of the current connections and the parameterized polarity are taken into
consideration when the angles are displayed. Thus, if all three angles differ by 180°
from the theoretical value, the polarity of one complete transformer set is wrong. This
can be corrected by checking and changing the corresponding plant parameters:
Address 0201 STRPNT->OBJ S1 for the primary winding,
Address 0210 STRPNT->OBJ S2 for the secondary winding,
Table 3-25 Displayed Phase Angle Dependent on the Protected Object (Three-Phase)
Differential and Before the tests with symmetrical currents are terminated, the differential and restraint
Restraint Currents currents are checked. Even though the tests which have been carried out so far should
have revealed most of the possible connection errors, matching errors or wrong vector
group allocations cannot be ruled out.
Switch to the operational measured values to read out the calculated values. When
assessing the currents, note that the differential and restraint values are referred to
the rated current of the protected object. This fact should be kept in mind when
comparing them to the test currents.
If considerable differential currents occur, recheck the following parameters:
For transformer protection (as per Section 2.12.2.2): addresses 0241, 0249 and
0202 (matching of winding 1), 0243, 0249 and 0211 (matching and vector group
of winding 2);
For generator or motor protection (as per Section 2.12.2.2): addresses 0251 and
0252 (matching of machine ratings);
The symmetrical current tests are now completed. Disconnect the protected object
(shut down generator) and earth it, remove the test equipment.
Switch the differential protection to being operative (address 2001: DIFF. PROT. =
ON); it works now as a short-circuit protection for all subsequent tests.
Preparation The primary test checks the correct integration of the 7UM62 into the system, espe-
cially the CT connection. Before commencing any primary tests, make sure that the
configured object is actually the one you want to protect. To do so, verify the settings
used in the configuration of the protection function, in Power System Data 1 and in the
protection function itself.
Set the earth current differential protection (address 2101 REF PROT.) to Block re-
lay, or interrupt the trip command lines.
Primary tests of power units are performed with the generator itself. On transformers,
a low-voltage test source is used.
Before the test, the CT connections have to be visually checked for correctness.
Note:
When performing the short-circuit test (3-phase short-circuit) for the earth current dif-
ferential protection, check that the three current transformers (side 1 or side 2 – which-
ever side is used for the earth current differential protection) are identical in design. To
do so, read out the percentages of the operational measured values 3I0-1 and 3I0-2
(in DIGSI in the differential protection measured values). If the CTs are correctly
matched, the values must be zero. Values that are not zero must be taken into account
for the protection settings.
Primary Test with This test is performed in addition to the current test. The protection must be set to max-
Generator imum sensitivity. The zero voltage release must be blocked (address 2103 REF
U0>RELEASE = 0).
For the test, one phase is earthed and the generator is excited (see Figure 3-25). The
test current must not exceed the permissible negative-sequence current. If this current
amounts e.g. to I2perm. = 10 % IN,G, the test current must be less than 30 % IN,G. On
the other hand, the current is determined by the low-resistance starpoint earthing.
10 % of the rated generator current are sufficient for testing.
Figure 3-25 Testing the Earth Current Differential Protection on the Generator
For the external fault, read out the percentages of the operational measured values
(on the device: Measured values→ I -Diff,I-Stab):
Both zero sequence currents 3I0-1 and 3I0-2 must be equal, and correspond to the
current fed in. The differential current I0-Diff is nearly zero. The restraint (stabilizing)
current I0-Stab is twice the flowing current. If the differential and the restraint current
are equal, the polarity of one CT must be wrong. This can also be seen from the phase
angle EDS |∆Φ| shown on the device in the phase angles, or in DIGSI. 0° means an
internal fault, and 180° an external fault. Minor deviations are caused by CT errors.
7UM62
Figure 3-26 Testing the Earth Current Differential Protection on the Transformer
Test with Measurements are always performed from the side with the earthed starpoint. In
Secondary Test transformers, there must be a delta winding (d-winding or compensating winding). The
Equipment winding not involved in the test remains open, because the delta winding automatically
provides for a low resistance of the zero sequence current path. The test arrangement
varies dependent of the application. Figures 3-27 to 3-30 show examples of test ar-
rangements, with Figure 3-27 being the preferred type for generator protection.
DANGER!
Primary measurements must only be carried out on disconnected and earthed
equipment of the power system. Danger to life exists even on disconnected
equipment because of capacitive coupling from other energized equipment of
the power system!

A zero sequence current of at least 2 % the rated generator current is required per
phase, i.e. the test current is at least 6 %. In the protection function, the sensitive pick-
up threshold must be set, and the zero voltage release disabled.

configuration)

Both zero sequence currents 3I0-1 and 3I0-2 must be equal, and correspond to the

current I0-Stab is twice the flowing current. If the differential and the restraint current
are equal, the polarity of one CT must be wrong. Minor deviations are caused by CT
errors.
When checking the phase CTs of the allocated side, the measured values (device:
Measurement → Operational values, secondary) per phase will be 1/3 each
of the applied zero sequence current. The phase angle is the same in all 3 phases due
to the zero sequence current.
If there are deviations, a connection error can be normally assumed (see side title “Pri-
mary Test with Generator”)
− Disconnect test source and protected object
− Check and correct connections and test arrangement
− Repeat measurement
Checking the Zero If the zero voltage release is used, it must be checked during the test of the stator earth
Voltage Release fault protection (see Section 3.4.6). In the presence of an earth fault, the indication
F.No. 05841 „REF U0> releas.“ must appear. When performing the test, keep in
mind that the zero voltage is calculated from the three phase voltages and converted
on the secondary side to the phase-to-phase voltage (equivalent to √3 U0). The value
thus obtained is the same as for a broken delta winding.
Blocking by If the above measurement have been successfully performed, and the measured
Overcurrent phase currents were plausible, it can be assumed that the current measurement works
correctly. You only need to check the correct setting in the protection function (address
2102 = REF I> BLOCK). The pickup values are checked by injecting a current by
means of some secondary test equipment (CTs need not be disconnected).
• After completion of the tests, disconnect the test source and the protected object
(shut down generator)
• If parameters have been changed for the tests, restore the settings required for op-
eration.
• After completion of the earth fault protection tests, switch the earth current differen-
tial protection to be operative.
General The voltage circuits of the machine are checked to ensure the correct cabling, polarity,
phase sequence, transformer ratio etc. of the voltage transformers - not to check
individual protection functions of the device.
Earthing of the When checking the voltage transformers, particular attention should be paid to the
Voltage open delta windings because these windings may only be earthed in one phase.
Transformers
Preparation Set the overvoltage protection function to about 110 % of the rated generator voltage
and give the trip on excitation.
Switch frequency protection (address 4201) and overflux protection (address 4301)
to Block relay.
Check in the unexcited condition of the machine with the help of remanent voltages,
that all short-circuit bridges are removed.
Note on Testing The checks of all voltage transformer circuits (protection, measuring, metering etc.)
are carried out with about 30 % of the rated transformer voltage. Tests with generator
voltages of more than 30 % are only required when the idle characteristic is measured
for the first time.
The measuring circuit supervision of the rotor earth fault protection (see below) can be
checked when testing the voltage circuits, or after the synchronization.
Amplitudes Read out voltages in all three phases in the operational measured values. They can
be compared with the actual voltages. The voltage of the positive sequence system
U1 must be approximately the same as the indicated phase voltages. If this is not, the
voltage transformer connections are incorrect (crossovers).
Phase Rotation The phase rotation must conform with the configured phase sequence (address 0271
PHASE SEQ. under Power System Data 1); if it does not, an indication “Fail Ph.
Measuring Circuit If the sensitive earth fault protection is used for rotor earth fault protection, the
Supervision of the measuring circuit supervision of that protection function can be checked with the
Rotor Earth Fault generator under voltage:
Protection
− Start up the generator and excite it to rated voltage. Apply measurement brushes
if necessary. Inject a test voltage between the rotor circuit and the earth by
interposing the additional source device 7XR61. The earth current IEE that is
flowing now can be read out on the device among the operational measured
values. The value obtained is the capacitive spill current flowing in fault-free
operation.
− IEE< (address 5106) should be set to about 50 % of this capacitive spill current.
It should also be checked that the set value IEE> (address 5102) is at least twice
this measured spill current. Correct the set value if necessary.
Frequency The frequency protection function is verified by a plausibility check of the instantane-
Protection ous machine speed and the associated operational measured value that is indicated.
The voltage tests are completed after the generator has been shut-down. The required
voltage and frequency protection functions are switched to be operative (address
4001: UNDERVOLTAGE = ON or OFF), (address 4101: OVERVOLTAGE = ON or OFF),
(address 4201: O/U FREQUENCY = ON or OFF) and (address 4301: OVEREXC.
PROT. = ON or OFF). Partial functions can be switched to be inoperative by appropriate
limit value settings (e.g. f* set to rated frequency).
The procedure for checking the stator earth fault protection depends mainly on
whether the generator is connected to the network in unit connection or in busbar
connection. In both cases correct functioning and protected zone must be checked.
In order to check interference suppression of the loading resistor, and in order to verify
the protected zone of the earth fault protection, primary tests are suggested, once with
an earth fault at the machine terminals (e.g. with 20 % of the rated transformer
voltage) and once with a network earth fault.

The generator circuit breaker must be closed for this test and the generator

this, the hints given overleaf under the side title “Directional check without Loading

Start up generator and slowly excite until the stator earth fault protection picks up:
alarm “U0> picked up” (not allocated when delivered from factory). At the same time
the alarm “3I0> picked up” should appear, if marshalled.
Read out UE and IEE under OPERATIONAL MEASURED VALUES. If the connections
are correct, this value corresponds with the machine terminal voltage in percent,
referred to rated machine voltage (if applicable, deviating rated primary voltage of
earthing transformer or neutral earthing transformer must be taken into account). This
value also corresponds to the setting value U0> in address 5002.
The measured value IEE2 should be approximately equal to or slightly higher than the
setting value 3I0> under address 5003.This is to ensure that the protection zone that
is determined by the setting value U0> is not reduced by a too slow pick-up.

With Directional The earth fault directional determination requires a check of the current and voltage
Determination connections for correctness and correct polarity. The machine continues to be excited
to a voltage that corresponds to a displacement voltage above the pick-up value. If the
polarity is correct, the trip indication “S/E/F TRIP“ is output (LED 6 when delivered
from factory).
A cross check is then performed. After the generator has been de-excited and shut
down, the earth fault bridge is installed on the other side of the current transformers
(as viewed from the machine).
DANGER!
Primary measurements must only be carried out with the generator at stand–
still on disconnected and grounded equipment of the power system.
After restarting and exciting the generator above the pick-up value of the displacement
voltage, “U0> picked up” picks up (LED 2 for global indication of a device pick-up
when delivered from factory), however “3I0 picked up” does not pick up and
tripping does not occur. The measured value IEE should be negligible and on no
account should it be larger then half the setting value 3I0>.
Shut down and de-excite generator. Remove earth fault bridge.
Directional Check If loading equipment is not available and if an earth fault test with the network is not
with Toroidal CTs possible, then the following test can be performed with secondary measures, however
without Loading with the symmetrical primary load current:
Resistor
With current supplied from a toroidal residual current transformer, a voltage
transformer (e.g. L1) is by-passed which simulates the formation of a neutral
displacement voltage (Figure 3-35). From the same phase, a test current is fed via a
current-limiting impedance Z through the toroidal transformer. The connection and
direction of the current conductor through the toroidal transformer is to be closely
checked. If the current is too small for the relay to pick-up, then its effect can be
increased by feeding the conductor several times through the toroidal transformer.
For Z either a resistor (30 to 500 Ω) or a capacitor (10 to 100 µF) in series with an
inrush-current-limiting resistor (approximately 50 to 100 Ω) is used. With correct
connections, the described circuit results in the alarms: “U0 > picked up”, “3I0>
picked up” and finally “S/E/F Trip” (LED 6).

withstand rated current is installed at the circuit breaker. Start up generator and slowly
excite until the rated machine current is reached.
Read out the operational measured value IEE2. This measured values determines the
setting value of address 5003 3I0>. Parameter 3I0> should be about twice that
measured value to ensure a sufficient security distance between the earth fault current
used for directional determination and the spill current. Next, check whether the
protection zone determined by the setting value U0> must be reduced.
Switch the stator earth fault protection to be operative: address 5001 S/E/F PROT.
= ON.
The 100-% stator earth fault connection is tested together with the 90-% stator earth
fault protection (see Section 3.4.6.1, Unit Connection).
Set the 100-% stator earth fault connection (address 5301 100% SEF-PROT.) to
Block relay (if you have not done so already). Also, the accessories of the protec-
tion device must be operational.
The tests to be performed are described in more detail below.
Check without Start up the generator and excite it to maximum generator voltage. The protection
Earth Fault does not pick up.
The operational measured values need to be checked as well (see also Section 3.3.8).
Read out the r.m.s. current I SEF. The fault value thus obtained should not exceed half
the pickup value SEF I>> (address 5306) to allow for the desired safety margin.
Shut down the generator.
Check Performed Connect the 20 Hz generator 7XT33 to the DC voltage or to an external three-phase
with an Earth Fault voltage source.
in the Machine
With the primary equipment disconnected and earthed, insert a single-pole earth fault
Zone
bridge in the generator terminal circuit.
DANGER!
Primary measurements may only be carried out with the generator at stand–still
on disconnected and grounded equipment of the power system.
Start up the generator and excite it slowly (but to less than UN/√3) until the 90-% earth
fault protection (Pickup threshold U0>) has picked up (see also Section 3.4.6.1, side
title “Checking for Generator Earth Fault”).
With the earth fault bridge in place, the resistance stages of the 100-% protection
(warning and trip stage) must pick up immediately on switching in the supply voltage
of the 20 Hz generator.
To check the pickup behaviour of the current stage SEF100 I>>, read out the mea-
sured value I SEF from the operational measured values at approx. 10 % to 20 % of
the displacement voltage. The value thus obtained should be about the same as the
pickup value SEF I>> selected at address 5306. This ensures that the current stage
of the 100-% stator earth fault protection covers a protection zone of about 80 % to
90 % of the winding in addition to the 100 % resistance calculation.
Check Using With the primary plant voltage-free and earthed, install a single-pole earth fault bridge
Network Earth Fault on the primary side of the unit transformer.
DANGER!
Primary measurements may only be carried out with the generator at stand–still
on disconnected and grounded equipment of the power system.
Caution!
The starpoints of the unit transformer must not be connected to earth during this test!
Start up the generator and slowly excite to 30 % of rated machine voltage (max. 60 %).
The 100-% and the 90-% stator earth fault protection do not pick up.
The checks to be performed for the 90-% stator earth fault protection are described in
Section 3.4.6.1, side title “Checking for Generator Earth Fault”.
For the 100-% stator earth fault protection, read out the operational measured value
I SEF. This value is extrapolated to approx. 1.3 times the rated machine voltage. The
current thus extrapolated should not exceed half the pick-up value SEF I>> (address
5306) in order to achieve the desired safety margin of the current stage of the 100-%
stator earth fault protection.
Shut down and de-excite the generator. Remove earth fault bridge.
If the starpoint of the high-voltage side of the unit transformer is to be earthed
during normal operation, re-establish starpoint earthing.
If the 20 Hz generator is to be fed by the voltage transformers of the machine termi-
nals, the appropriate connections, or a different type of supply connection (e.g. DC
voltage supply from a battery) must now be permanently made.
If no more special tests are to be made, switch the 100-% stator earth fault protection
to be operative: address 5301 100% SEF-PROT. = ON.
If the sensitive earth fault protection is used for rotor earth fault protection, it must first
be set to Block relay under address 5101.
Caution!
Make sure that the checked rotor circuit is completed isolated from the earth, to
avoid that the earthing resistor that is interposed for test purposes causes a
double earth fault!
An earth fault is simulated via a resistor which is roughly equivalent to the desired trip
resistance. In generators with rotating rectifier excitation, the resistor is placed
between the measurement slip rings; in generators with excitation via slip rings
between one slip ring and earth.
Start up generator and excite to rated voltage. If applicable place measurement
brushes into operation. It is irrelevant in this context whether the sensitive earth fault
protection picks up or not. The earth fault current IEE that is flowing now can be read
out on the device among the operational measured values.
Check that this measured earth fault current is roughly equal to the pick-up value IEE>
for sensitive earth fault detection that has been set in address 5102. However, it must
not be set to less that the double value of the spill current that has been determined
in section 3.4.5 for healthy insulation.
For generators with excitation via slip rings, the test is repeated for the other slip ring.
Shut down generator. Remove earth fault resistor.
The sensitive earth fault detection used for rotor earth fault protection is then set to be
operative: O/C PROT. Iee> = ON in address 5101.
In Section 3.3.7, the rotor earth fault protection was checked with the machine at
stand-still. In order to exclude possible interference on the measurement circuit by the
running generator, an additional test during operation is recommended.
Caution!
Make sure that the checked rotor circuit is completed isolated from the earth, to
avoid that the earthing resistor that is interposed for test purposes causes a
double earth fault!
An earth fault is simulated via a resistor of approximately 90% of the trip resistance
(RE<< TRIP, address 6003). In machines with rotating rectifier excitation (Figure 3-
19 left), the resistor is placed between the measurement slip rings; in machines with
excitation via slip rings (Figure 3-19 right) between one slip ring and earth.
In Section 3.3.7.2, the rotor earth fault protection was checked with the machine at
stand-still. In order to exclude possible interference on the measurement circuit by the
running generator, and specifically by the excitation system, an additional test during
operation is recommended.
Caution!
Make sure that the checked rotor circuit is completed isolated from the earth, to
avoid that the earthing resistor that is interposed for test purposes causes a
double earth fault!
An earth fault is simulated via a resistor of approximately 90% of the trip resistance
(address 6104 RE<< TRIP). In machines with rotating rectifier excitation (Figure 3-
19 left), the resistor is placed between the measurement slip rings; in machines with
excitation via slip rings (Figure 3-19 right) between one slip ring and earth.
Start up the generator and excite to the rated voltage. If applicable place measure-
ment brushes into operation.
Check the operational measured value Rearth and the pickup indication (“REF 1-3Hz
Fault”) and, after T-TRIP-RE<< (10 s on delivery) has expired, check the trip indi-
cation (“REF 1-3Hz Trip”) as well.
Set the resistance to approx. 90 % of the warning stage (address 6102 RE< WARN),
read out the operational measured value Rearth, and check the warning message
(“REF 1-3Hz Warn”). If there is heavy interference from the excitation system, it may
be necessary to reduce the resistance set for the warning threshold.
Remove the earthing resistor and check the operational measured values as well as
the measuring circuit supervision “REF 1-3Hz open” in fault-free condition. If spon-
taneous indications are issued by the measuring circuit monitoring, reduce the pickup
value (address 6106 Qc) or de-activate the monitoring.
For generators with excitation via slip rings, the test is repeated for the other slip ring.
Shut down generator. Remove earth fault resistor.
Switch the rotor earth fault protection REF 1-3Hz = ON under address 6101.
3.4.10.2 Measurement of Motoring Power (Reverse Power) and Angle Error Correction
For a generator, leave the reverse power protection and the forward active power
supervision switched to OFF for the moment. This function and the following
measurements are not required for motors.
The motoring power is – as an active power – almost constant and independent of the
reactive power, i.e. independent of the excitation current. However, the protection
relay may calculate different active power values dependent of the excitation because
of possible angle errors of the current and voltage transformers. The motoring power
curve then would not be a straight line in parallel to the real axis of the power diagram
of the machine. Therefore, the angle deviations should be measured at three
measuring points of the power diagram and the correction parameter W0 should be
established. The angle errors caused by the device’s internal input transformers have
already been compensated in the factory. This check is recommended if the reverse
power protection is set to “sensitive”.
Reduce driving power to zero by closing the regulating valves. The generator now
takes motoring energy from the network.
Caution!
For a turbine set, the intake of reverse power is only permissible for a short time, since
operation of the turbine without a certain throughput of steam (cooling effect) can lead
to overheating of the turbine blades!
− Read out the motoring power with polarity (negative sign) in the operational
measured values and note it down as P1 (see table below).
− Read out the reactive power with polarity (positive sign) in the operational
measured values and note it down as Q1 (see table below).
3. If possible reduce excitation to approximately 0.3 times rated apparent power of
generator (underexcited).
Caution!
Underexcitation may cause the generator fall out of step!
− Read out the motoring power with polarity (negative sign) in the operational
measured values under and note it down as P2 (see table below).
− Read out the reactive power with polarity (negative sign) in the operational
measured values and note it down as Q2 (see table below).
4. Adjust generator to no-load excitation and shut down or select the desired
operational state.
3 P2 Q2
The read-out measured values P1, and P2 are now used to carry out angle error
correction. Calculate according to the following formula:
P –P
ϕcorr = atan --------------------
1 2
-
Q1 – Q2
The power values must be inserted with their correct polarity as read out!
Otherwise faulty result!
This angle ϕcorr is entered with reversed sign as the new correction angle under
address 0204 CT ANGLE W0:
New setting CT ANGLE W0 = – ϕcorr
A quarter of the sum of the measured values P1 + P2 is set as pick-up value of the
reverse power protection P> REVERSE under address 3102.
If the generator is connected with the network, reverse power can be caused by
− closing of the regulating valves,
− closing of the trip valve
Because of possible leakages in the valves, the reverse power test should – if possible
– be performed for both cases.
In order to confirm the correct settings, repeat reverse power test again. For this, the
reverse power protection (address 3101) is set to BLOCK relay in order to check its
effectiveness (using the annunciations).
Start up generator and synchronize with network. Close regulating valves.
From the operational measured value for the active power, the motoring power
measured with the device can be derived. 50 % of that value should be taken as the
setting for the reverse power protection.
Increase driving power.
Stop Valve The last test with the stop valve can be performed with a live trip. It is assumed that
the binary input “>SV tripped” is marshalled correctly and is controlled by the stop
valve status (by a pressure switch or a limit switch at the stop valve).
Close stop valve.
From the operational measured value for the active power, the motoring power
measured with the device can be derived.
If that value should be found to be less than the reverse power with the stop valves
closed, 50 % of that value should be taken as the setting for the reverse power
protection.
Shut down the generator by activating the reverse power protection on:
Switch ON the reverse power protection (address 3101) and - if used - the forward
power supervision (address 3201).
Underexcitation The angle error correction value CT ANGLE W0, which has been determined in section
3.4.10.2 and configured under address 0204 for use with the angle error correction,
applies also to the underexcitation protection.
In section 3.4.10.2, the measured values of the reactive power have been read out,
and thus a plausibility check of that measured value with directional check has been
carried out. No further checks are required.
If you choose nevertheless to perform an additional load level measurement and by
this a directional check, proceed as follows:
Caution!
Underexcitation may cause the generator to fall out of step, in particular with increased
active power!
Check with Load Set the underexcitation protection to Block relay (address 3001).
The proper functioning is checked by approaching freely selected load levels under
overexcited and then underexcited conditions. The plausibility check is carried out by
reading out the relevant operational measured values and comparing them to the
measured values obtained from the station control and protection system.
Switch the underexcitation protection ON (address 3001).
Note: If operation with capacitive load is not possible, then load points can also be checked
in the inductive (overexcited) range. In this case, the polarity of the current transformer
connections must be re-parameterized (address 0223). Thus, the characteristics of
the underexcitation protection are mirrored around the origin. It must be noted that the
reverse power protection must be switched OFF (address 3101) as its characteristic
is also mirrored from the motor into the generator range.
Stability Limit Since the protective device shows each load level through the operational measured
values, it is not necessary to approach the underexcitation limit line.
Requirements To obtain oscillographic records, Address 0104 FAULT VALUE under the DEVICE
CONFIG. menu must be set to Instantaneous values or RMS values.
Along with the capability of recording waveform data during system faults, the 7UM62
also has the capability of capturing the same data when commands are given to the
device via the service program DIGSI® 4, the serial interfaces, or a binary input. For
the latter, the binary input must be assigned to the function “>Trig.Wave.Cap.”
(FNo 00000004). Triggering for the oscillographic recording then occurs when the
input is energized. For example, an auxiliary contact of the circuit breaker or primary
switch may be used to control the binary input for triggering.
An oscillographic recording that is externally triggered (that is, without a protective
element pick-up or device trip) is processed by the device as a normal fault recording
with the exception that data are not given in the fault messages. The externally
triggered record has a number for establishing a sequence.
Triggering with To trigger oscillographic recording with DIGSI® 4, click on Test in the left part of the
DIGSI® 4 window. Double click the entry Test Wave Form in the list in the right part of the
window to trigger the recording. See Figure 3-38.
A report is given in the bottom left region of the screen. In addition, message segments
concerning the progress of the procedure are displayed.
The DIGRA® program or the Comtrade Viewer program is required to view and
analyse the oscillographic data.
Verify all terminal screws are tight and secure. Do not overtighten. Ensure that all pin
connectors are properly inserted. Verify the wires to the terminals are tightly
connected. Make sure the communication cables are firmly connected; however, do
not overtighten the screws.
Caution!
Do not use force! The stud torque must not be exceeded, since the threads and
terminal screws may be damaged!
Verify that all service settings are correct. This is a crucial step because some setting
changes might have been made during commissioning. The protective settings under
device configuration, input/output masking are especially important (Section 2.2) as
well as the power system data, and activated Groups A and B. All desired elements
and functions must be set ON. See Chapter 2. Keep a copy of all of the in-service
settings on a PC.
Check the internal clock of the device. If necessary, set the clock or synchronize the
clock if the element is not automatically synchronized. For assistance, refer to the
SIPROTEC®4–System Manual.
The Annunciation memory buffers should be cleared, particularly the Event Log and
Trip Log. Future information will then only apply for actual system events and faults.
To clear the buffers, press MAIN MENU → Annunciation → Set/Reset. Refer to
the SIPROTEC®4 System Manual if further assistance is needed. The numbers in the
switching statistics should be reset to the values that were existing prior to the testing,
or to values in accordance with the user's practices. Set the statistics by pressing
MAIN MENU → Annunciation → Statistic. Refer to the SIPROTEC®4 System
Manual if more information is needed.
Press the ESC key, several times if necessary, to return to the default display.
Clear the LEDs on the front panel by pressing the LED key. Any binary outputs that
were picked up prior to clearing the LEDs are reset when the clearing action is
performed. Future illuminations of the LEDs will then apply only for actual events or
faults. Pressing the LED key also serves as a test for the LEDs because they should all
light when the button is pushed. Any LEDs that are lit after the clearing attempt are
displaying actual conditions.
The green “RUN” LED must be on. The red “ERROR” LED must not be lit.
Close the protective switches. If test switches are available, then these must be in the
operating position.
The device is now ready for operation.

The protective device is designed for use in an industrial environment and an electrical
utility environment. Proper installation procedures should be followed to ensure
electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). In addition, the following are recommended:
• All contactors and relays that operate in the same cubicle, cabinet, or relay panel
as the numerical protective device should, as a rule, be equipped with suitable
surge suppression components.
• For substations with operating voltages of 100 kV and above, all external cables
should be shielded with a conductive shield grounded at both ends. The shield must
be capable of carrying the fault currents that could occur. For substations with lower
operating voltages, no special measures are normally required.
• Do not withdraw or insert individual modules while the protective device is
energized. When handling the modules or the device outside of the case, standards
for components sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD) must be observed. The
modules and device are not endangered when inserted into the case.

A.5 100–% Stator Earth Fault Protection with Primary Load Resistor
Some power systems with generators in unit connection have a load resistor installed
directly in the generator starpoint to reduce interference. Figure A-43 shows the con-
nection of the 20 Hz generator and the band pass in this application, and the integra-
tion of the protection device. The 20 Hz voltage is injected into the generator starpoint
via a powerful voltage transformer and drops off at the primary load resistor. In the
presence of an earth fault, an earth current flows through the CT in the starpoint. The
protection function detects and processes this current in addition to the 20 Hz voltage
(see also Section 2.29).

Current As the transformation ratio is 1:1, a current transformer with a maximum number of
Transformer ampere windings must be chosen. The CT is installed directly in the starpoint on the
Specification earth side, downstream of the load resistor.
Type: 5P10 or 5P15 (or 1FS10)
Rated secondary current: 1A
Transformation ratio: 1 (1A/1A)
The settings recommended are the same as in Section 2.29. In addition, the correction
angle (address 5309 PHI I SEF) and the ohmic contact resistance of the voltage
transformer must be determined during the primary tests, and set at address 5310A
SEF Rps.
The conversion factor for the resistance (secondary – primary and vice versa) is:

A.5.2 Commissioning
The procedure is the same as described in Section 3.3. Measurements are carried out
with the generator at standstill, and randomly selected tests are then repeated with the
generator running. The following paragraph describes the method of adjustment. A
decade resistor (0 to 10 kΩ) is required for the tests.
Generator at 1. After checking the connections, a supply voltage is applied to the 20 Hz generator
Standstill and the protection device. The following parameters must be set as follows (deliv-
ery settings): address 5309 PHI I SEF = 0 ° and address 5310A SEF Rps =
0 Ω. In fault-free condition (RE infinite), read out the angle j SEF= from the oper-
ational measured values, and set the appropriate correction angle (see below).
Due to the capacitive earth current, the angle measured must be negative. If it is
not, the connection at the current input must be rotated.
The correction angle is: Phi corr = –90 Grad –(Phi measured)
Example:
Phi measured = –47 Grad, Phi corr = –90 ° + 47 ° = –43 °
The correction angle is set at address 5309 PHI I SEF.
2. Create a short-circuit (RE = 0 Ω) in the generator starpoint, and read out the mea-
sured fault resistance (address 00764 R SEF=) from the operational measured
values. This resistance is set at address 5310A SEF Rps.
3. Insert now on the primary side a resistance which corresponds to the tripping val-
ue (e.g. 2 kΩ). Check the measured fault resistance (R SEF=). If this resistance
differs very much from the value expected, modify SEF Rps accordingly and, if
necessary, make a fine adjustment with the correction angle (PHI I SEF).
Read out now the fault resistance, and set this value as the tripping threshold at
address 5303 R<< SEF TRIP.
Next, insert a fault resistance for the alarm stage (e.g. 5 kΩ) on the primary side,
and read out the fault resistance (R SEF=) from the operational measured values.
This value is set at address 5302 as R< SEF ALARM.
4. Finally, a series of measurements is performed, starting with 0 kΩ and proceeding
in steps of 1 kΩ. If changes are made to the correction angle (PHI I SEF) or to
the contact resistance (SEF Rps), the settings for the trip stage (R<< SEF TRIP)
and the alarm stage (R< SEF ALARM) must be matched as required.
Running Generator With the generator running the trip stage and the alarm stage must be checked. Again,
insert a fault resistance on the primary side, and check the fault resistance in the op-
erational measured values. If the resistance differs from the values at standstill, the
correction angle and/or the transfer resistance can be somewhat modified. To do so,
adapt the settings at address 5302 R< SEF ALARM and 5303 R<< SEF TRIP. These
values are also active with the generator at stand-still.
The 7UM62 used the generator reference-arrow system. The power output is posi-
tive.

Table A-2 shows the operating ranges for synchronous and asynchronous machines.
Parameter 1108 ACTIVE POWER is set to Generator. “Normal condition” shows the
active power under normal operating conditions: + means that a positive power is dis-
played on the protective device, – that the power is negative.

Table A-2 shows that the operating ranges in generator and motor operation are mir-
rored around the reactive power axis. The measured power values also result from the
above definition.
If, for instance, the forward power monitoring or the reverse power protection is to be
used in a synchronous motor, parameter 1108 ACTIVE POWER must be set to
Motor. As a result, the actual active power (according to the above definition) is mul-
tiplied with –1. This means that the power diagram is mirrored around the reactive
power axis and that the interpretation of the active power changes. This effect must
be considered when evaluating the metered energy values.
If, for instance, positive power values are to be obtained in an asynchronous motor,
the current direction (parameter 0201 STARPNT SIDE 1) must be reversed. Param-
eter 1108 ACTIVE POWER remains set to Generator. This means that because of
the generator reference-arrow system the earthing of the CTs that must be entered in
the device is the opposite of the actual earthing. This leads to results that are compa-
rable to those of a load reference-arrow system.
The differential protection is of decisive importance for the requirements that the cur-
rent transformers must meet. The highspeed trip stage (IDiff >>) uses instantaneous
values and can therefore reliably trip high-current internal short-circuits.
The other decisive factor for the requirements that the current transformers must meet
are external short-circuits with their possible DC component. In case of a short-circuit
flowing through the power transformers, a minimum of 5 ms should elapse before cur-
rent transformer saturation occurs. Recommendations for dimensioning are given in
Tables A-3 and A-4 on the basis of the IEC 60044-1 and 60044-6 standards. Table A-
5 shows the necessary equations for converting the requirements into the knee-point
voltages.
The primary nominal CT current is defined according to the rules of good engineering
practice. It must be chosen higher than or equal to the nominal current of the protected
object.
