DEFINITION OF TERMS
Item Definition
AR Reset Time AR Reset Time refers to the period of time subsequent to a

close after which the Auto Reclosing (AR) element is ready to
perform its full sequence.
Device A device consists of the RC Controller and Switchgear.
Fault Reset Time Defines the time after which a pickup is no longer active
before the protection timer resets.
Lockout Lockout is when the device opens and cannot perform any
auto reclosing operation.
Pickup Pickup is an event which is initiated when the measured

value exceeds the pickup value configured by the user.
Protection Operation/ When a protection element detects a fault, a pickup occurs.

Trip Request When the protection time elapses, if the fault is still present a
protection operation is requested such as a trip or alarm.
Protection Trip A Protection Trip is when the device goes into the open
position when a protection operation is requested.
Sectionaliser Count The device waits for detection of Loss of Supply (LSD) before
increasing the sequence counter. In this instance the fault is
detected and “counted” but the device does not open. Please
refer to OSM User Manual for more details.
Sectionaliser Trip A Sectionaliser trip is when the device waits for detection of
Loss of Supply (LSD) before opening. Please refer to OSM
User Manual for more details.
Sequence Counter/Trip Counter The sequence counter is used to keep a record of the number
of protection operations within the sequence that have
occurred. Please refer to OSM User Manual for more details.
Single Shot A device is in single shot when auto reclosing is disabled for
any reason. Please refer to OSM User Manual for more
details.
Single Shot Mode When in Single Shot mode, if a protection operation occurs,
the device will do one trip to lockout using the Single Shot
Trip (SST) selected configuration.
SST Time When SST Control is enabled, the SST Time applies after
closing the device from a lockout state. While the SST Time
has not expired the device will be in Single Shot Mode. In this
instance the AR Reset time does not apply.
Please refer to OSM User Manual for more details.

NOJA-559-23
1 Introduction
The Control and Management Software (CMS) is a software package that runs on a
Personal Computer (PC) and is used to configure and interrogate the Recloser Control (RC)
cubicle.
CMS can be used in Offline mode or Online mode.
Offline mode means that CMS is not connected to the switchgear device. The user is allowed
to do the following types of work:
▪ edit the database of devices and their settings

▪ prepare and edit the time current characteristic (TCC) curves
▪ analyse device's operating history.
When working in Online mode the RC must be connected to the PC. The connection can be
a local connection i.e. through a standard USB cable connected to the Operator Panel USB
Port or a remote connection.
When Online, the user can:
▪ read and replace the group of protection settings installed in the device
▪ read the device and protocol status
▪ direct control of the device
▪ adjust the device system settings.
Please refer to the OSM user manual for more details.
1.1 Installation
If you are upgrading from CMS v2.0 and above, CMS automatically checks for updates when
you are connected to the internet and will update to the latest release of CMS automatically.
Manual Installation/Upgrade
The installation package is a zip file which can be downloaded from the NOJA Power website
www.nojapower.com.au. A username and password will be required to access the download
area. This can be obtained by contacting NOJA Power, or your local NOJA Power distributor.
To start the installation, unzip the file and run the executable (.exe) file.
The following system requirements are necessary for CMS to execute successfully:
Table 1: Machine compatibility for CMS

Item Minimum Recommended
Processor Speed 1.8 GHz 2.2 GHz or faster
Memory 2 GB 4 GB
Free Hard Disk Space 3.5 GB 10 GB
The supported operating systems include:

▪ Windows 7
▪ Windows 8
5
NOJA-559-23
▪ Windows 8.1
▪ Windows 10.
Warning:
CMS v3.9 and higher only supports device(s) with RLM v1.12 relay firmware or higher. If the
user wants to use a device older than RLM v1.12 relay firmware, then CMS v3.8 or lower
shall be used to connect with older version device(s).
During the upgrade process, CMS checks for any pre-existing devices below RLM v1.12 in
the database. If present, the upgrade process displays a list of those device(s) with an option
to save a copy of each before continuing. CMS will delete the files in the database below
RLM v1.12 when the upgrade is successful.
Any existing devices in the database before upgrade that have a serial number starting with
“059” or “10C” will be greyed out after upgrade because these numbers are only for RC20
devices – which were not supported before CMS 3.9.
Upgrading from CMS v1.8

The database used in CMS v1.8 is not supported by the latest version of CMS. The database
can still be migrated to the latest version by performing the upgrade in two steps:
1. Upgrade from CMS v1.8 or below to CMS v2.5.1
A separate installation package is available to upgrade from CMS v1.8 or below to
CMS v2.5.1.
2. Upgrade from CMS v2.5.1 to the latest version

Use the installation package for the latest version.
Note: If there is no need to retain the old database then you can install the latest version
directly from CMS v1.8 using the latest installation package.

7 Offline Settings
The RC is configured by modifying the Offline settings as required, then downloading the
new settings to the RC. Please refer to Section 5.3 to download settings to a device.
7.1 Protection Settings
There are four protection groups available in the RC. They all have the same parameters
available for configuration.
To configure Group Protection settings, click the “Group (1 – 4)” button required.
From the “Auto Reclose” tab you can configure the reclosing sequences associated with
Overcurrent (OC), Negative Phase Sequence (NPS), Earth Fault (EF), Sensitive Earth Fault
(SEF) and Admittance (Yn) protection.
Note: NPS, EF, SEF and Yn do not apply to single phase devices.
Figure 88: Group Settings
Each trip in the sequence can be set as follows:

R - Reclose after Trip
L - Trip to Lockout
A - Alarm – do not Trip
D - Disable element for this trip
C - Count (only available when “Sectionalising” is enabled)
S - Sectionalise (only available when “Sectionalising” is enabled)
Any trip in a sequence (trip 1, 2, 3 or 4) can be selected for a Single Shot Trip (SST) and this
will determine the time current characteristics used when Single Shot is initiated.
The DE box must be ticked for the Directional Element to be enabled.
Below is a description of the protection elements found on the “Auto Reclose” tab:
73
NOJA-559-23
Table 9: Description of protection elements at Auto Reclose tab

Protection Description
OC1, NPS1, EF1 Sequence Master time delayed elements for forward (OC1+, NPS1+, EF1+) and
reverse (OC1-, NPS1-, EF1-) power flow direction. Used to set the maximum
number of operations to lockout and provide time delayed operations in a reclose
sequence.
OC2, NPS2, EF2 Low Set Elements for forward (OC2+, NPS2+, EF2+) and reverse (OC2-, NPS2-,
EF2-) powerflow direction. Used to provide a fast fuse clearing, first operation or
a first stage Time Current Characteristic (TCC) element.
OC3, NPS3, EF3 High set elements for forward (OC3+, NPS3+, EF3+) and reverse (OC3-, NPS3-,
EF3-) powerflow used to minimize exposure to downstream equipment to high
fault currents.
SEF Sensitive Earth Fault protection for forward power flow direction (SEF+) and
reverse power flow direction (SEF-).
Yn Admittance Protection based on the configured operating zone for conductance

and susceptance.
I2/I1 Broken Conductor protection using the ratio of negative sequence current over
positive sequence current.
DE OC, DE NPS, DE EF, DE Directional elements provide a means of enabling or disabling directional
SEF protection for each of the OC, NPS, EF and SEF elements. The torque angle set
by the user is used to determine the direction.
When the Directional Element (DE) is enabled for any protection element, the
protection element will only respond to faults in the element’s designated
direction. If DE is not enabled for a particular element then the element will
respond to both forward and reverse overcurrent and operate on the magnitude
of the fault only.
The “Direction Not Detected” setting determines whether the protection element
enabled for directional control will operate if the direction is not detected. By
default this setting is configured to “block” any protection trips. When set to “Trip”
the fastest curve of the elements enabled for directional control will trip once the
fault reaches the pickup value.
The “Dir Change Response” setting determines how the elements, enabled for
directional control, behave when the power flow direction changes while the
protection timer is accumulating:
Lock
When the direction (e.g. positive direction) is detected and a protection element
e.g. OC1+ detects the fault, the protection timer for OC1+ starts to accumulate.
During this time, if the direction of current suddenly changes and exceeds the
pickup current of the opposite element e.g.OC1-, then OC1- will not detect the
fault and the protection timer continues to accumulate for OC1+.
Dynamic
When the direction (e.g. positive direction) is detected and a protection element
e.g. OC1+ detects the fault, the protection timer starts to accumulate for OC1+.
During this time, if the direction of current suddenly changes and exceeds the
pickup current of the opposite element e.g.OC1-, the protection timer resets and
starts to accumulate for OC1-. The OC1+ pickup resets after the fault reset time
if the direction does not return back to the positive direction during the reset time.
74
NOJA-559-23
Advanced Polarised Advanced Polarised Detection can be utilised to determine directionality of high
Detection impedance earth faults detected through EF and SEF elements in isolated and
compensated neutral networks.
When “Advanced Polar Detection” is enabled the user can configure additional
settings to define the boundaries of the operating angle, θ associated with
directional protection. Please refer to the OSM User Manual for more details.
From the “Auto Reclose” tab you can also configure the following settings:
Table 10: Configurations available from Auto Reclose tab

Settings Description
Reclose Time When Auto Reclosing (AR) is active and a protection trip occurs, the
device closes after the Reclose Time has passed. The user can set
different reclose times for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd trip.
Reset Time Reset Time refers to the period of time subsequent to a close after
which the Auto Reclosing (AR) element is ready to perform its full
sequence.
If the device is closed from a lockout state it will be in Single Shot Mode
until the Reset Time expires (unless SST Control is enabled – see
below).
If the device is closed from a manual source and is not in a lockout state
the device will be in single shot mode until the Reset Time expires.
VRC Voltage Reclosing Control (VRC) inhibits an autoclose operation when

voltage on the source side falls below a user set threshold.
SST Control, SST Time When SST Control is enabled, if the device is closed from a lockout
state, the device will be in Single Shot Mode until the SST Time expires.
In this instance the Reset time does not apply.
LLB Live Load Blocking prevents close operation from any source ((e.g.
Protection (AR), HMI, CMS, SCADA, IO or Logic) when the voltage on
the nominated load side, as defined by VRC, is within the threshold
range set by the user.
ABR Automatic Backfeed Restoration (ABR) allows restoration of power by

backfeeding from non-faulted feeder.
Note: LLB and ABR cannot be ON at the same time.
Auto Open
▪ Timer Mode In this mode, the recloser can be set to automatically re-open after a set
period of time and re-enable ABR.
Note: Cannot be enabled at the same time as Powerflow mode
▪ Powerflow Mode In this mode, the recloser will be able to detect reduction and/or change
in power flow direction and open automatically without operator
intervention.
Note: Cannot be enabled at the same time as Timer mode
LSRM Loss of Supply Reclosing Mode (LSRM) allows the recloser to trip only
once to Lockout if there is a fault due to loss of supply.
75
NOJA-559-23
Settings Description
ZSC Zone Sequence Co-ordination (ZSC) makes the recloser move its trip
counter forward by one if it detects a downstream protection device has
operated. The counter increments only after all protection elements
have reset.
Sequence Advance Sequence Advance makes the device move its trip counter forward by
one if it detects that an upstream device has operated (a loss of supply
is detected (LSD)). When the number of LSDs reaches the user defined
sequence advance value (1-3), no other sequence advances can occur.
Please note that for single phase devices only the applicable elements can be configured.

NOJA-559-23
7.1.2 Protection Curves
CMS allows the user to configure three curves for each of the forward and reverse elements.
To display a curve simply click on the desired element in the Auto Reclose Map. A protection
curve screen will be displayed as shown below.
Figure 91: Protection Curve Screen
Note: For “3 Phase SEF” switchgear, the range for SEF+, SEF- and SEFLL is 0.2 to 80A and the
resolution is 0.1A.
The protection curve screen allows you to display and configure any of the curves in that
element group by clicking on 1+, 2+, 3+, 1-, 2- and/or 3- on top of the screen or on the side.
By default only the forward power flow curves are displayed.
IF DE is not enabled for a particular element then the element will respond to both forward
and reverse overcurrent. If DE is enabled then all six curves should be configured
appropriately.
You can also display other curves such as the Minimum Curve and Background Curve,
change the scaling and create User Defined Curves.
For example, tick the Minimum Curve box as shown below to display the minimum curve.
78
NOJA-559-23

You can also choose to display a Background Curve. The list of background curves
available comes from curves created via the TCC library. Please refer to 11.2 TCC Library.
Figure 93: Background Curve
79
NOJA-559-23
Each ANSI or IEC Time Current Characteristic can be modified with the aid of the following
operators:
Table 11: ANSI/IEC Time Current Characteristics modifying operators
Operator Definition
Maximum Current Multiplier If maximum current mode is enabled, when current exceeds a
user set maximum, the trip operation timer freezes until
current drops back below that level. This extends the tripping
time to avoid nuisance tripping during operation of
downstream fuses. The maximum current is calculated using
the multiplier applied to the pickup current and is only
applicable to low set elements (OC2+, OC2-, NPS2+, NPS2-,
EF2+ and EF2-).
Minimum Current Multiplier Defines the minimum pickup current. Set as a multiple of the
pickup current.
Definite Minimum Time Defines the minimum time that the device can operate. By
default this is set to 0s. This may be used to define desired
behaviour when an ANSI Inverse Definite Minimum Time
(IDMT) curve intersects a high set curve.
Maximum Tripping Time Defines the maximum time that the device can operate. By
default this is set to 120s.
Additional Time Adds a constant time to the selected TCC curve. By default
this is set to 0s.
Fault Reset Time Defines the time after which a pickup is no longer active
before the protection timer resets.
7.1.3 Curve Selection

For each of the three curves a user can select any of the TCC types available.
Figure 94: Curve Selection
80
NOJA-559-23
By default, the RC only has the IEC and ANSI Inverse Definite Minimum Time (IDMT) curves
as well as the Definite Time (TD) curve loaded. Up to 10 additional Non-Standard and User
Defined curves can be loaded to the device.
To make additional curves available, click on Offline Settings - > Curve Selection. Tick the
boxes next to the required curves.
Note: These must be downloaded to the RC before they can be selected from the RC
panel.

7.1.5 Yn Operation Settings

Neutral Admittance is based on the value of conductance, Gn (real part of admittance) and
susceptance, Bn (imaginary part of admittance) where Yn=Gn + jBn. Yn can be configured
to operate based on settings for Gn, Bn or both. The Directional Mode for conductance and
susceptance can be configured as forward, reverse or both.
Please refer to NOJA OSM User Manual for more details.
Figure 101: Yn Operation Settings
85
NOJA-559-23
7.1.6 Sectionaliser Mode

The sectionalising capability can be enabled for each of the Protection Group Settings.
The Sectionaliser role is to “Count” the number of operations of the upstream recloser under
fault conditions and to open to isolate the downstream fault when a pre-configured number of
“C”s (counts) is reached in the AR map and the upstream recloser is open.
When Sectionalise Mode is Enabled, the “C” (Count) and “S” (Sectionaliser) in the recloser
map will become available:
• “C” (Count) - Sectionaliser Count: When the fault current exceeds the pickup settings
and the protection timer expires, the device will wait for detection of Loss of Supply
(LSD) before increasing the sequence counter in the AR map.
• “S” (Sectionaliser) – Sectionaliser Trip: When the fault current exceeds the pickup
settings and the protection timer expires, the device will wait for detection of Loss of
Supply (LSD) before opening the device.
Note: If the last entry in the Auto Reclose Sequence is “L” (Lockout) then the recloser will not wait
for LSD and will open as soon as the protection timer expires causing a Protection Trip.
Figure 102: Sectionaliser Mode
When Sectionaliser Mode is Enabled a warning message is displayed asking the user to
review the AR mapping for correct configuration and the user has the option to confirm or
cancel the request.
86
NOJA-559-23
Figure 103: Enabling Sectionaliser mode
When Sectionaliser Mode is Disabled a warning message is displayed informing the user
that the “C”s and “S”s in the AR map will change to “R”s and “L”s, respectively. The user has
the option to confirm or cancel the request.
Figure 104: Disabling Sectionaliser Mode
Autoreclose Map
If the Autoreclose map is already opened in CMS, when sectionalising is enabled/disabled, it
will need to be closed and re-opened for the following changes to apply:
• When Sectionalise Mode is Enabled, the “C” (Count) and “S” (Sectionaliser) in the
recloser map will become available. All other auto reclose options will still be
available. Standard AR mapping logic applies but in addition, note the following:
o “R” can only precede “L” whereas “C” can precede “S” or “L”.
o “R” and “C” cannot be used in the same AR mapping group for each of the
forward and reverse elements. For example if the sequence R-R-L-L is used for
OC1+ then we cannot use C-S-D-D for OC2+.
o If “R” is used in the forward element group then it is possible to use “C” in the
reverse element group and vice versa. For example if R-R-L-L is used for OC1+
then we can use C-S-D-D for OC2- (if OC1- has a “C” or “S” in the
configuration).
• When Sectionalise Mode is Disabled, “C” in the recloser map will change to “R” and
the “S” in the recloser map will change to “L”. This change applies to all current
based protection elements (OC/NPS/EF/SEF).

UV1 Responds to phase voltage falling below a user set level.
UV2 Responds to voltage drop across any two phases
Note: UV2 is not applicable to single phase devices.
UV3 Responds to phase voltage falling below the Loss of Supply Detection (LSD)
level.
Notes:
• When Auto Close Mode is enabled and the device is opened by UV3, the
recloser will remain opened until voltage is detected above the LSD threshold
on both sides of the recloser for the duration of the configured Auto Close time.
• When “Operation in SST only” is enabled, UV3 will ONLY operate when a UV3
protection operation is requested AND the device is in single shot mode.
UV4 Sag Protects against a voltage sag condition when the voltage drops within a user
defined window for greater than a user defined time (Operation Time).
OV1 Responds to positive sequence voltage rising above a user set level.
OV2 Responds to voltage rise across any two phases
Note: OV2 is not applicable to single phase devices.
OV3 Responds to neutral displacement overvoltage rising above a user set level.
Note: When “Moving Average Mode” is enabled, OV3 values accumulate at each
quarter cycle and are averaged every 100ms. The calculated values of OV3
during the “Moving Average Window” are used instead of the instantaneous
values of OV3. When Moving Average Mode is enabled, an “Inhibit OV3 trip
functionality” is also provided which can be used in conjunction with ground
fault neutralisers and earth fault reduction techniques.
OV4 Responds to negative sequence voltage rising above a user set level.
Reclose Time Reclose time for all voltage elements.

NOJA-559-23
7.1.7.1 Rate of Change Of Frequency (ROCOF)
Rate Of Change Of Frequency (ROCOF) protection is used to detect situations of loss of grid
such as islanding or loss of mains and trips the circuit to isolate the distributed generation
plant from the main grid.
Generator-Load imbalances occur when a distributed generation plant is connected to a

network that loses its main generation and this results in changes to the system frequency.
ROCOF monitors the frequency continuously and detects when the rate of frequency shifts
past a set threshold. Once ROCOF exceeds the set limit, the circuit breaker is tripped after a
set time delay.
ROCOF Settings can be configured from the “Frequency, Voltage and Power” tab for each
Group in Offline Settings.
Figure 107: ROCOF Protection
7.1.7.2 Voltage Vector Shift (VVS)
Voltage Vector Shift (VVS) protection is used to detect sudden changes in the main voltage
angle caused by a change in the output from the generating plant or changes to the demand
connected to the network. It is primarily used to detect when islanding has occurred on an
embedded generation plant and initiates a trip to isolate the circuit from the main grid.

VVS Settings can be configured from the “Frequency, Voltage and Power” tab for each
Group in Offline Settings.
Figure 108: VVS Angle Protection
7.1.7.3 Directional Power (Over Power and Under Power) Protection
Overpower/Reverse power (32R/32O) protection prevents a generator from running as a

motor because of power flow in the reverse direction. It is used where a generator runs in
parallel to another generator or utility.
Directional Overpower protection operates when the measured apparent power at the
generator exceeds a threshold limit. Directional Underpower (37U) protection operates when
the measured apparent power from the generator falls below the threshold limit.
Protection Directional Over Power (PDOP) and Protection Direction Under Power (PDUP)
can be configured from the “Frequency, Voltage and Power” tab for each Group in Offline
Settings.

7.2.7 Fault Flags
Fault Targets include binary fault targets (fault flags) and fault measured values. Fault
Targets are set when a protection operation has been initiated e.g. Open(OC) is set when
the recloser has opened due to overcurrent protection.
When “Reset Fault Flags on Close” is enabled, fault targets are reset automatically on a
close operation. This is the default setting.
Fault Targets can also be reset manually from the panel via the Reset Menu and the Alerts
page or through SCADA or Logic. Fault Locator Status measurements and “Open” signals
that are not fault targets will not be reset.
Figure 124: Fault Flags
When alarms are configured as “Not Latched”, they will reset when the protection element
resets.
When alarms are configured as “Latched”, they will remain active when the protection
element resets. Alarms will reset automatically on a close operation if “Reset Flags on Close”
is enabled and can be manually reset from the panel via the Reset Menu and the Alerts page
or through SCADA or Logic.
Please refer to OSM User manual and relevant protocol document for more details.

7.2.10 Circuit Breaker Fail (CBF)
The Circuit Breaker Fail (CBF) feature is used to detect a failure of the recloser to open. It
does this by checking if current is flowing when it is in an open state, or by detecting an open
operation has failed to occur.
A signal can be generated to trigger a backup trip on an external device if a CBF fail
condition occurs.
CBF Settings can be configured from the “System Settings” tab for each Group in Offline
Settings.

For REL-20 or REL-20-4G, Line Supply, Peak Power and External Supply Power will be present.
7.2.12 Co-Generation
The synchronisation functionality can be used to connect incoming generators to the grid and
to re-establish a connection between two parts of the network or two islanded systems.
Synchronisation must be enabled to be able to use the Sync-Check and Auto-Synchroniser

functionality which operate in Live Line/Live Bus conditions:
102
NOJA-559-23
• Sync-Check “supervises” the closing of a device and only allows a close when both
sides of the recloser are within the desired limits of frequency, phase angle and
voltage to permit the paralleling of two circuits.
• Auto-Synchronisation can be initiated via Online Operations and it will wait for the
auto-synchroniser conditions to be met prior to requesting a close of the device. If the
conditions are not met within the Auto-sync waiting time then a close will not be
requested. (Refer to section 10.16 Auto Syncroniser).
A user can also configure whether to allow or prevent a manual or automatic close under
various “Live-Dead” conditions.
Note:
• When synchronisation is enabled if the bus voltage or line voltage is less than the live voltage
limit and above the dead voltage limit any manual or automatic close will always be prevented.
• When reconnecting two dead sections during synchronisation, a close is allowed only if it is
configured.

7.2.13 Fault Locator
The Fault Locator (21FL) functionality provides impedance based fault location estimation in
a radial distributed system. The 21FL function operates based on the measurements of
current and voltage phasors in the fundamental frequency (50 or 60Hz).
Fault Locator is applicable to OC, EF, SEF, OCLL, EFLL and SEFLL elements.
The following settings need to be configured before enabling fault locator:
103
NOJA-559-23
Table 14: Settings to be configured prior to enabling fault locator

Setting Description
R0 (Ω/km) Zero Sequence Resistance
X0 (Ω/km) Zero Sequence Reactance
R1 (Ω/km) Positive Sequence Resistance
X1 (Ω/km) Positive Sequence Reactance
Length of Line (km) Length of line in forward direction from the relay.
Distance to fault is calculated in two steps. Firstly the fault type is determined then the
distance to fault is calculated based on the detected fault type. When the fault location
calculation is completed the following values are reported via SCADA or Logic:
• M Distance to Fault (km)
• Zf Magnitude of Fault Impedance
• θf Phase Angle of Fault Impedance (degree)
• ZLoop Magnitude of Faulted Loop Impedance
• XLoop Measured Positive Sequence Reactance from the Relay to Fault
Location
• θLoop Phase Angle of Faulted Loop Impedance (degree).
Figure 130: Fault Locator
For more details please refer to the OSM User Manual.
7.2.14 Switchgear Calibration
The Switchgear Calibration window has the measurement coefficients for the voltage and
current sensors inside the OSM tank. These are used to calibrate the signals received from
the tank to ensure correct readings within measurement specifications.
OSM# is the serial number of the OSM tank that these coefficients are related to.
104
NOJA-559-23
Figure 131: Switchgear Calibration
For Single Triple switchgear, the “Number of Switches” can be selected. If the number of
switches is 3 then the user is able to enter a serial number for each OSM tank. All three
switches use the same coefficients.
Figure 132: Switchgear Calibration - Single Triple
105
NOJA-559-23
The OSM serial number can be obtained from the name plate on the switchgear. The serial
number contains 13 characters where the following restrictions apply.
OSM Serial number = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 ,9, 10, 11, 12, 13 where:
1,2,3 permitted characters “0-9”and “A-Z”.
4,5,6,7 permitted characters “0-9”
8,9 digits “01-12”
10,11,12,13 permitted characters “0-9”.
Note: The first three numbers define the switchgear type e.g.:
• Single Triple (3 switches) - 023
• Single Triple (1 switch) - 133

• Single Phase - 023
• 3 Phase - 020
• 3 Phase SEF - 079.
7.2.15 Demonstration Box Settings

The NOJA Power Demonstration Unit is used to demonstrate RC10 features, test SCADA
functionality and for personnel training. It provides full CMS support using both direct and
remote connections.
he Demonstration Unit functionality can be configured as “Standard” or “Single Triple”. Since

the unit does not have a SIM, malfunction messages will be displayed on the operator panel
if demonstration unit functionality is disabled in CMS.
When the Demonstration Unit is set as Standard, the controller can operate as a single or
three phase device depending on the OSM switchgear type.
From firmware 1.14, if a SIM is not connected, enabling the Demonstration functionality (set
to standard or single triple) allows the unit to be opened and closed without the need to use
an OSM simulator in CMS. If a SIM is present or earlier firmware is used then the unit can
only opened and closed if the OSM Simulator is used in CMS.

7.3 Input Output Configuration
Two optional I/O modules can be installed as an accessory (I/O 1 and I/O 2).
The I/O screen is used to enable, disable and configure all inputs and outputs.
The I/O modules can be configured as a Remote or Local user. This means the RC must be
in the correct mode before a command can be executed by the I/O module.
The modules must be set to “Enable” to make them operational. This can be done through
Online Operations. Please refer to Section 10.6 I/O Configuration.
Figure 135: I/O Module Configuration Screen
Input Settings
The inputs can be assigned to actions. These are selected from the drop down list next to
each input.
The inputs can be set to trigger on the rising edge (Edge Triggered = Yes) or when the input
voltage is level (Edge Triggered = No).
A recognition Time can be set for each input when Edge Triggered = No. This applies a delay
before activating the configured action.
107
NOJA-559-23
Output Settings
The outputs are activated in response to events. This can be an activation of a signal, a
SCADA I/O protocol point activation, or the output of a logic expression.
A recognition Time can be set for each output. This applies a delay before activating the
output relay contacts.
A reset time can be applied for each output. This sets a de-activation delay for the relay
contacts after the activating signal has de-activated.
The outputs can be set to operate as a Pulse (Pulse Enable = On). In this case the output is
activated when the condition is active, stays on for the Pulse Time, then deactivates.
If Pulse Enable is set to Off, the output activates when the signal is active and stays on until
the signal de-activates.
7.3.1 Local Input Configuration
The RC has three digital inputs located on the Relay module (Local Inputs).
The Local Inputs can be Disabled and Enabled as one unit. Each individual input can be
enabled or disabled.
The three Local digital inputs can be assigned to actions. These are selected from the drop
down list next to each input.
The Local Inputs can be configured as a Remote or Local user. This means the RC must be
in the correct mode before a command can be executed by the I/O module.
A recognition Time can be set for each input. This applies a delay before activating the
configured action.
108
NOJA-559-23
Figure 136: Local Inputs Configuration
7.4 Logic
7.4.1 Expressions
Logic expressions can be used to provide extended functionality.
The expressions are evaluated as either true or false. The output result initiates actions,
activates SCADA points or I/O to initiate actions and/or turn on other additional expressions.
32 logic channels or variables are also available as outputs.
Note: Logic Channels 17-32 can be write protected. Please refer to section 10.13.
The expressions employ logic operators such as “or, nor, xor, and, nand, not and ( )” with
other variables such as pickup, open, alarm, closed, status, malfunction or any general
control or indication point.
A logic expression is evaluated on change of state of any of its input signals. Logic is also
evaluated upon download of logic settings from CMS and upon startup of the controller.
The Logic window can be accessed through Offline Settings -> Logic -> Logic Tab.
109
NOJA-559-23
Figure 137: Logic Expression Screen
Set the global logic mode to Enable.
Set the individual logic channel to Enable.
Give the expression a Name – this is used to identify expression state changes in the event
log. Events are only registered if “Log Enable” is set to On.
Note: There is a limit of 7 characters to define the logic channel name. Further restrictions may
apply to languages other than English depending on characters used.
A logic expression window will be opened when you click inside the Expression field.
Figure 138: Logic Expression Window
Logic expressions are created by double clicking operators and signals.
For example, the logic expression in Figure 138 will close the OSM recloser if it had
previously opened due to a loss of supply (UV3) and voltage has been detected on the ABC
side of the recloser.
110
NOJA-559-23
[Open(UV3)] AND [P(Uabc>)]
The expression output is set to Close. Therefore, when the expression is True, it will Close
the recloser.
The “Set When” field is set to “Either” in this example. This will cause the expression state to
reset back to False whenever the expression changes state.
Definition of Operation of “Set When” condition is described below.
Table 15: Definition of operation of “Set When” condition

EITHER The Expression Output will be activated when the Logic Expression Output is TRUE and it will be
deactivated when the Logic Expression Output is FALSE.
TRUE The Expression Output will be activated when the Logic Expression Output is TRUE it will stay in this
state. (Equivalent to turning the Output ON and leaving it in ON state).
FALSE The Expression Output will be deactivated when Logic Expression Output is FALSE and it will stay in
this state. (Equivalent to turning the Output OFF and leaving it in OFF state).
A recognition Time can be set. This introduces a delay between the expression becoming
True or False (depending on the “Set When” condition) and the Expression Output being
activated or deactivated.
The Reset Time adds a delay between a reset condition occurring, and the resetting of the
expression’s output state.
The Expression Output will operate as either a latched output or pulsed output depending on
whether Pulse is enabled.
Please refer to RC Relay IO and Logic User Guide for more details.
7.4.2 User Configurable Analogues
User configurable analogues enable the user to add a new scale and offset to existing
measured values such as current, voltage and power.
The configurable analogues are available through the HMI panel, CMS and SCADA
protocols.

7.7 Power Quality

The RC Power Quality System provides monitoring and protection features for power quality
issues such as Harmonics Distortion, Interruptions and Sags and Swells. The system:
▪ uses the “Fast Fourier Transform” or FFT algorithm to provide exact values for
the harmonic frequency and its magnitude
▪ captures an oscillogram of the waveform (IEEE COMTRADE format)
▪ captures information for short and long interruptions (IEEE P1159.3 PQDIF
format)
▪ records the number of sags and swells (IEEE P1159.3 PQDIF format).
Data is logged and can be analysed to determine the power quality flowing through the
device using the Power Quality Software (PQS) installed on a PC.
For more details on Power Quality please refer to the OSM user manual.
CMS allows the user to configure Power Quality settings which include: Oscillography,
Harmonics, Interruptions and Sags/Swells.
Figure 173: Power Quality Settings
138
NOJA-559-23
7.7.1 Oscillography
CMS allows the user to configure how the RC captures oscillography data:
For REL-20 and REL-20-4G devices, “Save to USB” and “Save to Internal Memory” will be
greyed out.
Figure 174: Oscillography Settings
Below is a description of the settings:
Table 17: Oscillography – Setting descriptions

Setting Description
Oscillography Enable/Disable the capture of oscillography data.
Event Define an event that triggers the capture of oscillography data.
Capture Time Determines Capture size.
Capture Prior to event Defines how much data to capture prior to an event. Ranges
from 0 to 80%.
7.7.2 Harmonics
The RC controller measures Total Harmonic Distortion (THD), Total Demand Distortion
(TDD), Harmonic Current (HRM_I) and Harmonic Voltage (HRM_V) up to the 15th harmonic.
An independent deadband can be defined for each of these as shown below.
A single timer setting for all deadbands is available such that when the harmonic exceeds the
user set deadband for the user set time period, the value at the end of that time period will be
logged.
139
NOJA-559-23
Figure 175: Harmonics Settings
7.7.3 Interruptions
The long and short duration interruption information collected can be used to calculate
System Average Interruption Duration Index (SAIDI), System Average Interruption
Frequency Index (SAIFI) and Momentary Average Interruption Frequency Index (MAIFI).
The RC allows the user to set a duration to determine the difference between a short and
long interruption, and can log all the information relevant to each of these interruptions
separately. If the duration time is set to zero it will capture all interruptions as Long Duration
Interruptions.
Figure 176: Interruptions
140
NOJA-559-23
7.7.4 Sags and Swells

The RC records voltage variations for sags and swells occurring outside a user set period of
time. Sag and Swell voltages are based on the phase to ground voltages.
Sags
A voltage Sag occurs when one or more of the 3 phase voltages fall below the Sag Normal
Threshold voltage. The Sag ends when all of the 3 phase voltages are equal to or greater
than the Sag Normal Threshold voltage.
Swells
A voltage Swell begins when one of more of the 3 phase voltages is above the Swell Normal
Threshold voltage and ends when all of the 3 phase voltages are equal to or less than the
Swell Normal Threshold voltage.

11.9 Creating a New Simulation
To create a new Simulation, click on “New” from the Simulation section in the “Libraries” Tab.
Enter Name and Description and add values as required.
Figure 216: New Simulation
The following parameters need to be specified:
▪ Current in each phase

▪ Voltage on each terminal
▪ Frequency
▪ End Conditions
▪ Phase angle.
The Residual Current “In” and its angle will be calculated automatically based on the value
and phasing of Ia, Ib, Ic.
Note:
• Make sure you select the correct switchgear type. Use “Single Triple” for single triple devices
and “Standard” for all other devices.
• Make sure to tick the “Use OSM Simulator” communication box to engage the binary OSM
simulator if you don’t have a connection to a recloser tank.
168
NOJA-559-23
• The CMS simulator is used to test analogue signals which have not undergone any
processing. As a result, there are certain features which cannot be tested e.g. powerflow
direction change, phase configuration and power quality data (aside from fundamental
harmonics).
• The CMS simulator does not take into account the configured phase connection and
powerflow direction. Instead the simulator presumes that the phase sequence is ABC and the
power flow is RST to ABC.
Save changes by clicking the disk icon in the top left hand corner.
End conditions are the event that must be achieved before the simulator moves on to the
next step in the sequence. The values specified in that row will continue to be injected until
the condition is met. Timeout condition is a set time and the setting is in milliseconds.
For standard devices, end conditions include Timeout, Open and Close.
Figure 217: End Conditions – Standard Device
For single triple devices, end conditions include: Timeout, All Phases Open, All Phases
Closed, 1 Phase Open, 1 Phase Closed, Any Open, Any Close, Ph A Open, Ph B Open, Ph
C Open, Ph A Close, Ph B Close, Ph C Close.
Figure 218: End Conditions - Single Triple Device
In the sample simulation below, 40 amps is injected for 10 seconds then the simulator moves
on to the next step where 305 amps is injected until the OSM goes into Open position (or
could use “Phase B Open” for single triple devices). The time taken for the OSM to move to
open and the completion of this step will be dependent on the selected protection settings of
the device.
169
NOJA-559-23
Figure 219 Sample Simulation - Overcurrent
The following simulation could be used to demonstrate the Auto Reclosing functionality on a
standard device where AR is enabled, the AR sequence for OC1+ is set to R-R-L and the
pickup current for OC1+ is set to 300 A.
Figure 220: Sample Simulation – Auto Reclose Sequence
Note: The “Close” end condition is used in steps 3 and 5. Using “Close” in this instance is more
reliable than using “Timeout” and it works for all reclose times.

12.6 Generate DNP3 Key

The RC supports DNP3 Secure Authentication (DNP3-SA) version 2 (SAv2) and version 5 (SAv5).
To create a DNP3-SA Update Key file (*.bax) you will need a DNP3-SA configuration file (*.csv). This
file needs to be created manually using a program such as notepad or excel and it must be in a
comma separated value (CSV) format.
The following requirements must be adhered to when creating the DNP3-SA configuration file:
• Permitted characters are A-Z, a-z, 0-9, space, “.”, “-”.
• Config File Version and Update Key version permitted numbers range from 0.0.0 to
255.255.255.
• User Number must be 1 (other numbers may be supported in future releases).
• User Role can be “1” (Operator) or “32768” (Single User).
• Serial number must be a valid RC serial number (13 characters).
• The Update Key must be in hexadecimal format (32 or 64 characters).
• Verification method determines how the RC will find its Update key in the file. If it is set to “0”
the RC will use the update key that matches its serial number in the file. If it is set to”1” it finds
its associated update key by matching the serial number and DNP3 address.
