1. General Introduction
The T500 series single phase relay test kits are designed for easy and safe test of
different type of relays. The powerful 250A/2000VA current source can be used to test all
kinds of current relays, including high burden relay and CT. The AC/DC current and/or
voltage sources allow phase angle and frequency to be adjusted smoothly. This makes it
possible to precisely test directional and frequency relay. The kit uses advanced switching
power amplifier to replace the traditional transformer, thus avoiding the dangerous high
voltage across the current output.

When the 5s end, the voltage and current frequencies will drop from
50Hz at df/dt to the end frequency. At the same time, the tester will start
to count time when the frequency has dropped to the frequency setting:
If the relay acts, while the action contacts are connected to the binary
inputs of tripping, the tester will stop to count time and show the action
time.
If the relay doesn’t work, it will drop to the end frequency, hold for 30s
and then stop the test.

This function is designed to test differential relay with independent restraint coil and
differential coil. The items, such as the trip value, time and differential current tripping
value under different restraint current, can be tested. Test results can be recorded.
Test process:
1) Action value:
Select test item, and then go into the differential test unit;
Set the amplitude and phase of I1 and I2. For example:
I1 for differential current; I2 for restraining current;
Press the Run button, the tester will start to output based on the settled I1, I2. Rotate the
ENTER button to change the magnitude of I1 (Id). As soon as the tester receives the
binary input of relay acting signal, press the Stop button to stop the test.
2) Action time:
Select test item, and then go into the differential test unit.

30
T200A Hardware Operation Manual
Press the Run button, the tester will start to output based on the settled I1, I2. When the
tester receives the binary input of relay acting signal and finish recording the action time,
the test will stop.
Note: In Manual & Meter, I1 and I2 should be short circuit if there is no output.
For example: if I1works and I2 doesn’t output, the I2 should be short-circuited.
If I2 is not short circuit, a waning will be sent.

5.3.6 Harmonic
This unit can have superposition of 2nd, 3rd, 5th,7th harmonics on the fundamental to
execute the harmonic surge blocking test and harmonic overflux blocking test of
transformers,
1) Select test item, and then go into the harmonic restrained unit;
2) Set parameters.
Rotate the ENTER button to set the amplitudes of fundamental current and
harmonic current.
Harmonic coefficient = ( effective value of harmonic/effective value of
fundamental)×100%;
Set U2 values of amplitude and phase
3) Test process
Press the Run button, and then the tester will output the recombination current of I2
fundamental and harmonic. Here, the ratio of harmonic to fundamental is larger than
the protection’s settled harmonic restrained coefficient, so the differential protection
won’t work.
Rotate the ENTER button to decrease the harmonic current’s amplitude value till the
differential relay act.
The tester will display the harmonic coefficient of acting moment.

Note: During the test, the current should be rise gradually and can’t be swing up
and down, which might cause remanence. The existence of remanence will have
great effects on the measuring results. Once this situation happens, you should
re-elevate the current to be higher than the original value and then decrease it
gradually to zero. Repeat foregoing process for one or two times, thus the effect of
CT remanence can be cured.
41
T200A Hardware Operation Manual
Connect wires as above figure shown. Disconnect the connecting sheet inside
the CT terminal box heading to CT winding.
Select the Manual&Meter menu, shown as above figure.
