1 GETTING STARTED 1.2 UR OVERVIEW
1.2UR OVERVIEW 1.2.1 INTRODUCTION TO THE UR
The GE Universal Relay (UR) series is a new generation of digital, modular, and multifunction equipment that is easily
1
incorporated into automation systems, at both the station and enterprise levels.
1.2.2 HARDWARE ARCHITECTURE
a) UR BASIC DESIGN
The UR is a digital-based device containing a central processing unit (CPU) that handles multiple types of input and output
signals. The UR device can communicate over a local area network (LAN) with an operator interface, a programming
device, or another UR device.
Figure 1–2: UR BLOCK DIAGRAM

The CPU module contains firmware that provides protection elements in the form of logic algorithms, as well as program-
mable logic gates, timers, and latches for control features.
Input elements accept a variety of analog or digital signals from the field. The UR isolates and converts these signals into
logic signals used by the relay.
Output elements convert and isolate the logic signals generated by the relay into digital or analog signals that can be used
to control field devices.
The software and unit are backwards-compatible with UR devices.
b) UR SIGNAL TYPES
The contact inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with connections to hard-wired contacts. Both ‘wet’ and ‘dry’
contacts are supported.
The virtual inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with UR-series internal logic signals. Virtual inputs include
signals generated by the local user interface. The virtual outputs are outputs of FlexLogic™ equations used to customize
the device. Virtual outputs can also serve as virtual inputs to FlexLogic equations.
The analog inputs and outputs are signals that are associated with transducers, such as Resistance Temperature Detec-
tors (RTDs).
The CT and VT inputs refer to analog current transformer and voltage transformer signals used to monitor AC power lines.
The UR-series relays support 1 A and 5 A CTs.
The remote inputs and outputs provide a means of sharing digital point state information between remote UR-series
devices. The remote outputs interface to the remote inputs of other UR-series devices. Remote outputs are FlexLogic oper-
ands inserted into IEC 61850 GSSE and GOOSE messages.

1.2 UR OVERVIEW 1 GETTING STARTED
The direct inputs and outputs provide a means of sharing digital point states between a number of UR-series IEDs over
1 dedicated fiber (single or multimode), RS422, or G.703 interface. No switching equipment is required as the IEDs are con-
nected directly in a ring or redundant (dual) ring configuration. This feature is optimized for speed and intended for pilot-
aided schemes, distributed logic applications, or the extension of the input/output capabilities of a single relay chassis.
c) UR SCAN OPERATION
The UR-series devices operate in a cyclic scan fashion. The device reads the inputs into an input status table, solves the
logic program (FlexLogic equation), and then sets each output to the appropriate state in an output status table. Any result-
ing task execution is priority interrupt-driven.
Figure 1–3: UR-SERIES SCAN OPERATION

1 GETTING STARTED 1.2 UR OVERVIEW
1.2.3 SOFTWARE ARCHITECTURE
Firmware is the software embedded in the relay and is designed in functional modules that can be installed in any relay as
1
required. This is achieved with object-oriented design and programming (OOD/OOP) techniques.
Object-oriented techniques involve the use of objects and classes. An object is defined as “a logical entity that contains
both data and code that manipulates that data”. A class is the generalized form of similar objects. By using this concept,
one can create a protection class with the protection elements as objects of the class, such as time overcurrent, instanta-
neous overcurrent, current differential, undervoltage, overvoltage, underfrequency, and distance. These objects represent
completely self-contained software modules. The same object-class concept can be used for metering, input/output control,
software interface, communications, or any functional entity in the system.
Employing OOD/OOP in the software architecture of the L30 achieves the same features as the hardware architecture:
modularity, scalability, and flexibility. The application software for any UR-series device (for example, feeder protection,
transformer protection, distance protection) is constructed by combining objects from the various functional classes. This
results in a common interface across the UR series.
1.2.4 IMPORTANT CONCEPTS
As described above, the architecture of the UR-series relays differ from previous devices. To achieve a general understand-
ing of this device, some sections of Chapter 5 are quite helpful. The most important functions of the relay are contained in
“elements”. A description of the UR-series elements can be found in the Introduction to elements section in chapter 5.
Examples of simple elements, and some of the organization of this manual, can be found in the Control elements section of
chapter 5. A description of how digital signals are used and routed within the relay is contained in the Introduction to Flex-
Logic section in chapter 5.

842743A3.CDR
2. If the status indicator is red, verify that the Ethernet network cable is properly connected to the Ethernet port on the
back of the relay and that the relay has been properly setup for communications (steps A and B earlier).
If a relay icon appears in place of the status indicator, than a report (such as an oscillography or event record) is open.
Close the report to re-display the green status indicator.
3. The Display Properties settings can now be edited, printed, or changed.
See chapter 4 in this manual or the EnerVista UR Setup Help File for information about the using the EnerVista UR
Setup software interface.
NOTE
QUICK ACTION HOT LINKS

The EnerVista UR Setup software has several quick action buttons to provide instant access to several functions that are
often performed when using L30 relays. From the online window, users can select the relay to interrogate from a pull-down
window, then click the button for the action they want to perform. The following quick action functions are available:
• View the L30 event record
• View the last recorded oscillography record
• View the status of all L30 inputs and outputs
• View all of the L30 metering values
• View the L30 protection summary
• Generate a service report

1.3.6 SETTING UP CYBERSENTRY AND CHANGING DEFAULT PASSWORD
1 If and when first using CyberSentry security, use the following procedure for set up.
1. Log in to the relay as Administrator by using the Value keys on the front panel or through EnerVista connected serially
(so that no IP address is required). If logging in through EnerVista choose Device authentication. Enter the default
password "ChangeMe1#". Note that the "Lock relay" setting needs to be disabled in the Security > Supervisory
menu. When this setting is disabled, configuration and firmware upgrade are possible. By default, this setting is dis-
abled.
2. Enable the Supervisor role if you have a need for it.
3. Make any required changes in configuration, such as setting a valid IP address for communication over Ethernet.
4. Log out of the Administrator account by choosing None.
Next, device or server authentication can be chosen on the login screen, but the choice is available only in EnerVista. Use
device authentication to log in using the five pre-configured roles (Administrator, Supervisor, Engineer, Operator,
Observer). When using a serial connection, only device authentication is supported. When server authentication is
required, characteristics for communication with a RADIUS server must be configured on the UR. This is possible only
through the EnerVista software. The RADIUS server itself also must be configured. The appendix called RADIUS Server
gives an example of how to setup a simple RADIUS server. Once both the RADIUS server and the parameters for connect-
ing UR to the server have been configured, you can choose server authentication on the login screen of EnerVista.
Figure 1–10: LOGIN SCREEN FOR CYBERSENTRY
During the commissioning phase, you have the option to bypass the use of passwords. Do so by enabling the Bypass
Access setting under SETTINGS > PRODUCT SETUP > SECURITY > SUPERVISORY. Be sure to disable this bypass setting after
commissioning the device.
You can change the password for any role either from the front panel or through EnerVista.

If using EnerVista, navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Security. Change the Local Administrator Password, for
example. It is strongly recommended that the password for the Administrator be changed from the default. Changing the
passwords for the other three roles is optional. 1

1.4.2 COMMUNICATIONS
The EnerVista UR Setup software communicates to the relay via the faceplate RS232 port or the rear panel RS485 / Ether-
net ports. To communicate via the faceplate RS232 port, a standard straight-through serial cable is used. The DB-9 male
end is connected to the relay and the DB-9 or DB-25 female end is connected to the computer COM2 port as described in
the CPU communications ports section of chapter 3.
Figure 1–12: RELAY COMMUNICATION OPTIONS

To communicate through the L30 rear RS485 port from a computer RS232 port, the GE Multilin RS232/RS485 converter
box is required. This device (catalog number F485) connects to the computer using a straight-through serial cable. A
shielded twisted-pair (20, 22, or 24 AWG) connects the F485 converter to the L30 rear communications port. The converter
terminals (+, –, GND) are connected to the L30 communication module (+, –, COM) terminals. See the CPU communica-
tions ports section in chapter 3 for details. The line is terminated with an R-C network (that is, 120 , 1 nF) as described in
the chapter 3.

1.5.5 RELAY PASSWORDS
a) PASSWORD SECURITY
It is recommended that passwords be set for each security level and assigned to specific personnel. There are two user
security access levels, COMMAND and SETTING.
1. COMMAND
The COMMAND access level restricts the user from making any settings changes, but allows the user to perform the fol-
lowing operations:
• Change state of virtual inputs
• Clear event records
• Clear oscillography records
• Operate user-programmable pushbuttons
2. SETTING
The SETTING access level allows the user to make any changes to any of the setting values.
See the Changing Settings section in Chapter 4 for complete instructions on setting security-level passwords.
NOTE
b) CYBERSENTRY
When the CyberSentry option is purchased, advanced security services are available, using either device authentication or
server authentication using RADIUS. When this option is purchased, the basic password security is disabled automatically.
For more information, see the CyberSentry content in the Security section of the next chapter.
1.5.6 FLEXLOGIC CUSTOMIZATION
FlexLogic equation editing is required for setting user-defined logic for customizing the relay operations. See the FlexLogic
section in Chapter 5.

1.5.7 COMMISSIONING
The L30 requires minimal maintenance after it is commissioned into service. Since the L30 is a microprocessor-based
1
relay, its characteristics do not change over time. As such, no further functional tests are required.
The L30 performs a number of continual self-tests and takes the necessary action in case of any major errors (see the
Relay Self-tests section in chapter 7). However, it is recommended that L30 maintenance be scheduled with other system
maintenance. This maintenance can involve in-service, out-of-service, or unscheduled maintenance.
In-service maintenance:
1. Visual verification of the analog values integrity, such as voltage and current (in comparison to other devices on the
corresponding system).
2. Visual verification of active alarms, relay display messages, and LED indications.
3. LED test.
4. Visual inspection for any damage, corrosion, dust, or loose wires.
5. Event recorder file download with further events analysis.
Out-of-service maintenance:
1. Check wiring connections for firmness.
2. Analog values (currents, voltages, RTDs, analog inputs) injection test and metering accuracy verification. Calibrated
test equipment is required.
3. Protection elements setting verification (analog values injection or visual verification of setting file entries against relay
settings schedule).
4. Contact inputs and outputs verification. This test can be conducted by direct change of state forcing or as part of the
system functional testing.
5. Visual inspection for any damage, corrosion, or dust.
6. Event recorder file download with further events analysis.
7. LED Test and pushbutton continuity check.
Unscheduled maintenance, such as a disturbance causing system interruption:
1. View the event recorder and oscillography or fault report for correct operation of inputs, outputs, and elements.
If it is concluded that the relay or one of its modules is of concern, contact GE Multilin for service.

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.1 INTRODUCTION
2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.1INTRODUCTION 2.1.1 OVERVIEW
The L30 Line Current Differential System is a digital current differential relay system with an integral communications chan-
nel interface.
The L30 is intended to provide complete protection for transmission lines of any voltage level. Both three phase and single
phase tripping schemes are available. Models of the L30 are available for application on both two and three terminal lines.
The L30 uses per phase differential at 64 kbps transmitting two phaselets per cycle. The current differential scheme is
based on innovative patented techniques developed by GE. The L30 algorithms are based on the Fourier transform– 2
phaselet approach and an adaptive statistical restraint. The restraint is similar to a traditional percentage differential
scheme, but is adaptive based on relay measurements. When used with a 64 kbps channel, the innovative phaselets
approach yields an operating time of 1.0 to 1.5 cycles (typical). The adaptive statistical restraint approach provides both
more sensitive and more accurate fault sensing. This allows the L30 to detect relatively higher impedance single line to
ground faults that existing systems may not. The basic current differential element operates on current input only. Long
lines with significant capacitance can benefit from charging current compensation if terminal voltage measurements are
applied to the relay. The voltage input is also used for some protection and monitoring features such as directional ele-
ments, fault locator, metering, and distance backup.
The L30 is designed to operate over different communications links with various degrees of noise encountered in power
systems and communications environments. Since correct operation of the relay is completely dependent on data received
from the remote end, special attention must be paid to information validation. The L30 incorporates a high degree of secu-
rity by using a 32-bit CRC (cyclic redundancy code) inter-relay communications packet.
In addition to current differential protection, the relay provides multiple backup protection for phase and ground faults. For
overcurrent protection, the time overcurrent curves may be selected from a selection of standard curve shapes or a custom
FlexCurve™ for optimum co-ordination.
The L30 incorporates charging current compensation for applications on very long transmission lines without loss of sensi-
tivity. The line capacitive current is removed from the terminal phasors.
For breaker-and-a-half or ring applications, the L30 design provides secure operation during external faults with possible
CT saturation.
Voltage, current, and power metering is built into the relay as a standard feature. Current parameters are available as total
waveform RMS magnitude, or as fundamental frequency only RMS magnitude and angle (phasor).

2.1.3 SECURITY
The following security features are available:

• Password security — Basic security present in the default offering of the product
• EnerVista security — Role-based access to various EnerVista software screens and configuration elements. The fea-
ture is available in the default offering of the product and only in the EnerVista software.
• CyberSentry security — Advanced security options available as a software option. When purchased, the options are
automatically enabled, and the default Password security and EnerVista security are disabled.
a) ENERVISTA SECURITY
The EnerVista security management system is a role-based access control (RBAC) system that allows an administrator to
manage the privileges of multiple users. This allows for access control of UR devices by multiple personnel within a substa-
tion and conforms to the principles of RBAC as defined in ANSI INCITS 359-2004. The EnerVista security management
system is disabled by default to allow the administrator direct access to the EnerVista software after installation. It is recom-
mended that security be enabled before placing the device in service.
Basic password or enhanced CyberSentry security applies, depending on purchase.
b) PASSWORD SECURITY
Password security is a basic security feature present in the default offering of the product.
Two levels of password security are provided: command and setting.
The following operations are under command password supervision:
• Operating the breakers via faceplate keypad
• Changing the state of virtual inputs
• Clearing the event records
• Clearing the oscillography records
• Clearing fault reports
• Changing the date and time
• Clearing the breaker arcing current
• Clearing the data logger
• Clearing the user-programmable pushbutton states
The following operations are under setting password supervision:
• Changing any setting

• Test mode operation

The command and setting passwords are defaulted to “0” when the relay is shipped from the factory. When a password is
set to “0”, the password security feature is disabled. As shown in the figures, the window indicates when the password is at
the default and when the password has been set.
Figure 2–2: WINDOW INDICATES DEFAULT PASSWORD (LEFT) AND PASSWORD SET (RIGHT)
The L30 supports password entry from a local or remote connection. Local access is defined as any access to settings or
commands via the faceplate interface. This includes both keypad entry and the through the faceplate RS232 port. Remote
access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear communications port. This includes both Ethernet
and RS485 connections. Any changes to the local or remote passwords enables this functionality.
When entering a settings or command password via EnerVista or any serial interface, the user must enter the correspond-
ing connection password. If the connection is to the back of the L30, the remote password must be used. If the connection
is to the RS232 port of the faceplate, the local password applies.
Events are logged in the Event Recorder. The FlexLogic operands and events are updated every five seconds.
c) CYBERSENTRY SECURITY
CyberSentry Embedded Security is a software option that provides advanced security services. When this option is pur-
chased, the basic password security is disabled automatically.
CyberSentry provides security through the following features:
• An Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA) Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) client that
is centrally managed, enables user attribution, provides accounting of all user activities, and uses secure standards-
based strong cryptography for authentication and credential protection.
• A Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system that provides a permission model that allows access to UR device oper-
ations and configurations based on specific roles and individual user accounts configured on the AAA server (that is,
Administrator, Supervisor, Engineer, Operator, Observer).
• Security event reporting through the Syslog protocol for supporting Security Information Event Management (SIEM)
systems for centralized cybersecurity monitoring.
• Strong encryption of all access and configuration network messages between the EnerVista software and UR devices
using the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and 128-bit keys in Galois Counter
Mode (GCM) as specified in the U.S. National Security Agency Suite B extension for SSH and approved by the
National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) FIPS-140-2 standards for cryptographic systems.

Example: Administrative functions can be segmented away from common operator functions, or engineering type
access, all of which are defined by separate roles, as shown in the following figure, so that access of UR devices by multi-
ple personnel within a substation is allowed. Permission for each role are outlined in the next section.
Figure 2–3: CYBERSENTRY USER ROLES
There are two types of authentication supported by CyberSentry that can be used to access the UR device:
• Device Authentication (local UR device authenticates)
• Server Authentication (RADIUS server authenticates)
The EnerVista software allows access to functionality that is determined by the user role, which comes either from the local
UR device or RADIUS server.
The EnerVista software has a device authentication option on the login screen for accessing the UR device. When the
"Device" button is selected, the UR uses its local authentication database and not the RADIUS server to authenticate the
user. In this case, it uses its built-in roles (Administrator, Engineer, Supervisor, Observer, Operator) as login names and the
associated passwords are stored on the UR device. As such, when using the local accounts, access is not user-attribut-
able.
In cases where user attributable access is required especially to facilitate auditable processes for compliance reasons, use
RADIUS authentication only.
When the "Server" Authentication Type option is selected, the UR uses the RADIUS server and not its local authentication
database to authenticate the user.
No password or security information are displayed in plain text by the EnerVista software or UR device, nor are they ever
transmitted without cryptographic protection.
CYBERSENTRY USER ROLES
CyberSentry user roles (Administrator, Engineer, Operator, Supervisor, Observer) limit the levels of access to various UR
device functions. This means that the EnerVista software allows for access to functionality based on the user’s logged in
role.
Example: Observer cannot write any settings.
The table lists the roles that are supported and their corresponding capabilities.

CYBERSENTRY SERVER AUTHENTICATION
The UR has been designed to automatically direct authentication requests based on user names. In this respect, local
account names on the UR are considered as reserved, and not used on a RADIUS server.
The UR automatically detects whether an authentication request is to be handled remotely or locally. As there are only five
local accounts possible on the UR, if the user ID credential does not match one of the five local accounts, the UR automat-
ically forwards the request to a RADIUS server when one is provided.
If a RADIUS server is provided, but is unreachable over the network, server authentication requests are denied. In this situ-
ation, use local UR accounts to gain access to the UR system.

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.2 PILOT CHANNEL RELAYING
2.2PILOT CHANNEL RELAYING 2.2.1 INTER-RELAY COMMUNICATIONS
Dedicated inter-relay communications may operate over 64 kbps digital channels or dedicated fiber optic channels. Avail-
able interfaces include:
• RS422 at 64 kbps
• G.703 at 64 kbps
• Dedicated fiber optics at 64 kbps. The fiber optic options include: 2
– 820 nm multi-mode fiber with an LED transmitter
– 1300 nm multi-mode fiber with an LED transmitter
– 1300 nm single-mode fiber with an ELED transmitter
– 1300 nm single-mode fiber with a laser transmitter
– 1550 nm single-mode fiber with a laser transmitter
– IEEE C37.94 820 nm multi-mode fiber with an LED transmitter
All fiber optic options use an ST connector. L30 models are available for use on two or three terminal lines. A two terminal
line application requires one bidirectional channel. However, in two terminal line applications, it is also possible to use an
L30 relay with two bidirectional channels. The second bidirectional channel will provide a redundant backup channel with
automatic switchover if the first channel fails.
The L30 current differential relay is designed to function in a peer-to-peer or master-to-master architecture. In the peer-to-
peer architecture, all relays in the system are identical and perform identical functions in the current differential scheme. In
order for every relay on the line to be a peer, each relay must be able to communicate with all of the other relays. If there is
a failure in communications among the relays, the relays revert to a master-to-peer architecture on a three-terminal system,
with the master as the relay that has current phasors from all terminals. Using two different operational modes increases
the dependability of the current differential scheme on a three-terminal system by reducing reliance on communications.
The main difference between a master and a slave L30 is that only a master relay performs the actual current differential
calculation, and only a master relay communicates with the relays at all other terminals of the protected line.
At least one master L30 relay must have live communications to all other terminals in the current differential scheme; the
other L30 relays on that line may operate as slave relays. All master relays in the scheme will be equal, and each will per-
form all functions. Each L30 relay in the scheme will determine if it is a master by comparing the number of terminals on the
line to the number of active communication channels.
The slave terminals only communicate with the master; there is no slave-to-slave communications path. As a result, a slave
L30 relay cannot calculate the differential current. When a master L30 relay issues a local trip signal, it also sends a direct
transfer trip (DTT) signal to all of the other L30 relays on the protected line.
If a slave L30 relay issues a trip from one of its backup functions, it can send a transfer trip signal to its master and other
slave relays if such option is designated. Because a slave cannot communicate with all the relays in the differential
scheme, the master will then “broadcast” the direct transfer trip (DTT) signal to all other terminals.
The slave L30 Relay performs the following functions:
• Samples currents and voltages
• Removes DC offset from the current via the mimic algorithm
• Creates phaselets
• Calculates sum of squares data
• Transmits current data to all master L30 relays
• Performs all local relaying functions
• Receives current differential DTT and Direct Input signals from all other L30 relays
• Transmits direct output signals to all communicating relays
• Sends synchronization information of local clock to all other L30 clocks
The master L30 relay performs the following functions:

2.2 PILOT CHANNEL RELAYING 2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

• Receives current phasor information from all relays
• Performs the current differential algorithm

2.2.2 CHANNEL MONITOR
The L30 has logic to detect that the communications channel is deteriorating or has failed completely. This can provide an
alarm indication and disable the current differential protection. Note that a failure of the communications from the master to
a slave does not prevent the master from performing the current differential algorithm; failure of the communications from a
slave to the master will prevent the master from performing the correct current differential logic. Channel propagation delay
is being continuously measured and adjusted according to changes in the communications path. Every relay on the protec-
tion system can assigned an unique ID to prevent advertent loopbacks at multiplexed channels.

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.2 PILOT CHANNEL RELAYING
2.2.3 LOOPBACK TEST
This option allows the user to test the relay at one terminal of the line by looping the transmitter output to the receiver input;
at the same time, the signal sent to the remote will not change. A local loopback feature is included in the relay to simplify
single ended testing.
2.2.4 DIRECT TRANSFER TRIPPING

2
The L30 includes provision for sending and receiving a single-pole direct transfer trip (DTT) signal from current differential
protection between the L30 relays at the line terminals using the pilot communications channel. The user may also initiate
an additional eight pilot signals with an L30 communications channel to create trip, block, or signaling logic. A FlexLogic
operand, an external contact closure, or a signal over the LAN communication channels can be assigned for that logic.

2.3 FUNCTIONALITY 2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
2.3FUNCTIONALITY 2.3.1 PROTECTION AND CONTROL FUNCTIONS
• Current differential protection: The current differential algorithms used in the L30 Line Current Differential System
are based on the Fourier transform phaselet approach and an adaptive statistical restraint. The L30 uses per-phase
differential at 64 kbps with two phaselets per cycle. A detailed description of the current differential algorithms is found
in chapter 8. The current differential protection can be set in a percentage differential scheme with a single or dual
slope.
2 • Backup protection: In addition to the primary current differential protection, the L30 Line Current Differential System
incorporates backup functions that operate on the local relay current only, such as directional phase overcurrent, direc-
tional neutral overcurrent, negative-sequence overcurrent, undervoltage, overvoltage, and distance protection.
• Multiple setting groups: The relay can store six groups of settings. They may be selected by user command, a con-
figurable contact input or a FlexLogic equation to allow the relay to respond to changing conditions.
• User-programmable logic: In addition to the built-in protection logic, the relay may be programmed by the user via
FlexLogic equations.
• Configurable inputs and outputs: All of the contact converter inputs (digital inputs) to the relay may be assigned by
the user to directly block a protection element, operate an output relay or serve as an input to FlexLogic equations. All
of the outputs, except for the self test critical alarm contacts, may also be assigned by the user.
2.3.2 METERING AND MONITORING FUNCTIONS
• Metering: The relay measures all input currents and calculates both phasors and symmetrical components. When AC
potential is applied to the relay via the optional voltage inputs, metering data includes phase and neutral current, phase
voltage, three phase and per phase W, VA, and var, and power factor. Frequency is measured on either current or volt-
age inputs. They may be called onto the local display or accessed via a computer. All terminal current phasors and dif-
ferential currents are also displayed at all relays, allowing the user opportunity to analyze correct polarization of
currents at all terminals.
• Event records: The relay has a sequence of events recorder which combines the recording of snapshot data and
oscillography data. Events consist of a broad range of change of state occurrences, including input contact changes,
measuring-element pickup and operation, FlexLogic equation changes, and self-test status. The relay stores up to
1024 events with the date and time stamped to the nearest microsecond. This provides the information needed to
determine a sequence of events, which can reduce troubleshooting time and simplify report generation after system
events.
• Oscillography: The relay stores oscillography data at a sampling rate of 64 times per cycle. The relay can store a
maximum of 64 records. Each oscillography file includes a sampled data report consisting of:
– Instantaneous sample of the selected currents and voltages (if AC potential is used),
– The status of each selected contact input.
– The status of each selected contact output.
– The status of each selected measuring function.
– The status of various selected logic signals, including virtual inputs and outputs.
The captured oscillography data files can be accessed via the remote communications ports on the relay.
• CT failure and current unbalance alarm: The relay has current unbalance alarm logic. The unbalance alarm may be
supervised by a zero-sequence voltage detector. The user may block the relay from tripping when the current unbal-
ance alarm operates.
• Trip circuit monitor: On those outputs designed for trip duty, a trip voltage monitor will continuously measure the DC
voltage across output contacts to determine if the associated trip circuit is intact. If the voltage dips below the minimum
voltage or the breaker fails to open or close after a trip command, an alarm can be activated.
• Self-test: The most comprehensive self testing of the relay is performed during a power-up. Because the system is not
performing any protection activities at power-up, tests that would be disruptive to protection processing may be per-
formed. The processors in the CPU and all CT/VT modules participate in startup self-testing. Self-testing checks
approximately 85 to 90% of the hardware, and CRC/check-sum verification of all PROMs is performed. The proces-

2 PRODUCT DESCRIPTION 2.3 FUNCTIONALITY
sors communicate their results to each other so that if any failures are detected, they can be reported to the user. Each
processor must successfully complete its self tests before the relay begins protection activities.
During both startup and normal operation, the CPU polls all plug-in modules and checks that every one answers the
poll. The CPU compares the module types that identify themselves to the relay order code stored in memory and
declares an alarm if a module is either non-responding or the wrong type for the specific slot. When running under nor-
mal power system conditions, the relay processors will have idle time. During this time, each processor performs back-
ground self-tests that are not disruptive to the foreground processing.
2.3.3 OTHER FUNCTIONS

2
a) ALARMS
The relay contains a dedicated alarm relay, the critical failure alarm, housed in the power supply module. This output relay
is not user programmable. This relay has form-C contacts and is energized under normal operating conditions. The critical
failure alarm will become de-energized if the relay self test algorithms detect a failure that would prevent the relay from
properly protecting the transmission line.
b) LOCAL USER INTERFACE

The local user interface (on the faceplate) consists of a 2  20 liquid crystal display (LCD) and keypad. The keypad and dis-
play may be used to view data from the relay, to change settings in the relay, or to perform control actions. Also, the face-
plate provides LED indications of status and events.
c) TIME SYNCHRONIZATION
The relay includes a clock which can run freely from the internal oscillator or be synchronized from an external IRIG-B sig-
nal. With the external signal, all relays wired to the same synchronizing signal will be synchronized to within 0.1 millisecond.

3.1.2 REAR TERMINAL LAYOUT
Figure 3–8: REAR TERMINAL VIEW

Do not touch any rear terminals while the relay is energized.
The small form-factor pluggable ports (SFPs) are pluggable transceivers. Do not use non-validated
transceivers or install validated transceivers in the wrong Ethernet slot, else damage can occur.
The relay follows a convention with respect to terminal number assignments which are three characters long assigned in
order by module slot position, row number, and column letter. Two-slot wide modules take their slot designation from the
first slot position (nearest to CPU module) which is indicated by an arrow marker on the terminal block. See the following
figure for an example of rear terminal assignments.

Filter networks and transient protection clamps are used in the hardware to prevent damage caused
by high peak voltage transients, radio frequency interference (RFI), and electromagnetic interference
(EMI). These protective components can be damaged by application of the ANSI/IEEE C37.90 spec-
ified test voltage for a period longer than the specified one minute.
3.2.3 CONTROL POWER
Control power supplied to the relay must be connected to the matching power supply range of the
relay. If the voltage is applied to the wrong terminals, damage can occur.
The L30 relay, like almost all electronic relays, contains electrolytic capacitors. These capacitors are
well known to be subject to deterioration over time if voltage is not applied periodically. Deterioration
can be avoided by powering the relays up once a year.
The power supply module can be ordered for two possible voltage ranges, with or without a redundant power option. Each
range has a dedicated input connection for proper operation. The ranges are as shown below (see the Technical specifica-
tions section of chapter 2 for additional details):
• Low (LO) range: 24 to 48 V (DC only) nominal
• High (HI) range: 125 to 250 V nominal
The power supply module provides power to the relay and supplies power for dry contact input connections.
The power supply module provides 48 V DC power for dry contact input connections and a critical failure relay (see the
Typical wiring diagram earlier). The critical failure relay is a form-C device that is energized once control power is applied
and the relay has successfully booted up with no critical self-test failures. If on-going self-test diagnostic checks detect a
critical failure (see the Self-test errors section in chapter 7) or control power is lost, the relay is de-energize.
For high reliability systems, the L30 has a redundant option in which two L30 power supplies are placed in parallel on the
bus. If one of the power supplies become faulted, the second power supply assumes the full load of the relay without any
interruptions. Each power supply has a green LED on the front of the module to indicate it is functional. The critical fail relay
of the module also indicates a faulted power supply.
An LED on the front of the control power module shows the status of the power supply:

ON / OFF CYCLING Failure

Figure 3–11: CONTROL POWER CONNECTION
3.2.4 CT AND VT MODULES
A CT/VT module can have voltage inputs on channels 1 through 4 inclusive, or channels 5 through 8 inclusive. Channels 1
and 5 are intended for connection to phase A, and are labeled as such in the relay. Likewise, channels 2 and 6 are intended
for connection to phase B, and channels 3 and 7 are intended for connection to phase C.
Channels 4 and 8 are intended for connection to a single-phase source. For voltage inputs, these channel are labelled as
auxiliary voltage (VX). For current inputs, these channels are intended for connection to a CT between system neutral and
ground, and are labelled as ground current (IG).
Verify that the connection made to the relay nominal current of 1 A or 5 A matches the secondary rat-
ing of the connected CTs. Unmatched CTs may result in equipment damage or inadequate protec-
tion.
CT/VT modules can be ordered with a standard ground current input that is the same as the phase current input. Each AC
current input has an isolating transformer and an automatic shorting mechanism that shorts the input when the module is
withdrawn from the chassis. There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. Current transformers with 1 to
50000 A primaries and 1 A or 5 A secondaries may be used.
The above modules are available with enhanced diagnostics. These modules can automatically detect CT/VT hardware
failure and take the relay out of service.
CT connections for both ABC and ACB phase rotations are identical as shown in the Typical wiring diagram.
The exact placement of a zero-sequence core balance CT to detect ground fault current is shown below. Twisted-pair
cabling on the zero-sequence CT is recommended.

Figure 3–12: ZERO-SEQUENCE CORE BALANCE CT INSTALLATION

The phase voltage channels are used for most metering and protection purposes. The auxiliary voltage channel is used as
input for the synchrocheck and volts-per-hertz features.
Substitute the tilde “~” symbol with the slot position of the module in the following figure.

3.2.5 PROCESS BUS MODULES
The L30 can be ordered with a process bus interface module. This module is designed to interface with the GE Multilin
HardFiber system, allowing bidirectional IEC 61850 fiber optic communications with up to eight HardFiber merging units,
known as Bricks. The HardFiber system has been designed to integrate seamlessly with the existing UR-series applica-
tions, including protection functions, FlexLogic, metering, and communications.
The IEC 61850 process bus system offers the following benefits:
• Reduces labor associated with design, installation, and testing of protection and control applications using the L30 by
reducing the number of individual copper terminations
• Integrates seamlessly with existing L30 applications, since the IEC 61850 process bus interface module replaces the
traditional CT/VT modules
3 • Communicates using open standard IEC 61850 messaging

For additional details on the HardFiber system, see GE publication GEK-113658: HardFiber Process Bus System Instruc-
tion Manual.
3.2.6 CONTACT INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Every contact input/output module has 24 terminal connections. They are arranged as three terminals per row, with eight
rows in total. A given row of three terminals can be used for the outputs of one relay. For example, for form-C relay outputs,
the terminals connect to the normally open (NO), normally closed (NC), and common contacts of the relay. For a form-A
output, there are options of using current or voltage detection for feature supervision, depending on the module ordered.
The terminal configuration for contact inputs is different for the two applications.
The contact inputs are grouped with a common return. The L30 has two versions of grouping: four inputs per common
return and two inputs per common return. When a contact input/output module is ordered, four inputs per common is used.
The four inputs per common allows for high-density inputs in combination with outputs, with a compromise of four inputs
sharing one common. If the inputs must be isolated per row, then two inputs per common return should be selected (4D
module).
The tables and diagrams on the following pages illustrate the module types (6A, etc.) and contact arrangements that can be
ordered for the relay. Since an entire row is used for a single contact output, the name is assigned using the module slot
position and row number. However, since there are two contact inputs per row, these names are assigned by module slot
position, row number, and column position.
Some form-A / solid-state relay outputs include circuits to monitor the DC voltage across the output contact when it is open,
and the DC current through the output contact when it is closed. Each of the monitors contains a level detector whose out-
put is set to logic “On = 1” when the current in the circuit is above the threshold setting. The voltage monitor is set to “On =
1” when the current is above about 1 to 2.5 mA, and the current monitor is set to “On = 1” when the current exceeds about
80 to 100 mA. The voltage monitor is intended to check the health of the overall trip circuit, and the current monitor can be
used to seal-in the output contact until an external contact has interrupted current flow.
Block diagrams are shown as follows for form-A and solid-state relay outputs with optional voltage monitor, optional current
monitor, and with no monitoring. The actual values shown for contact output 1 are the same for all contact outputs.

Figure 3–14: FORM-A AND SOLID-STATE CONTACT OUTPUTS WITH VOLTAGE AND CURRENT MONITORING
The operation of voltage and current monitors is reflected with the corresponding FlexLogic operands (CONT OP # VON,
CONT OP # VOFF, and CONT OP # ION) which can be used in protection, control, and alarm logic. The typical application of
the voltage monitor is breaker trip circuit integrity monitoring; a typical application of the current monitor is seal-in of the
control command.
Refer to the Digital elements section of chapter 5 for an example of how form-A and solid-state relay contacts can be
applied for breaker trip circuit integrity monitoring.
Consider relay contacts unsafe to touch when the unit is energized. If the relay contacts need
to be used for low voltage accessible applications, ensure proper insulation levels.
USE OF FORM-A AND SOLID-STATE RELAY OUTPUTS IN HIGH IMPEDANCE CIRCUITS
NOTE For form-A and solid-state relay output contacts internally equipped with a voltage measuring circuit across the con-
tact, the circuit has an impedance that can cause a problem when used in conjunction with external high input
impedance monitoring equipment such as modern relay test set trigger circuits. These monitoring circuits may con-
tinue to read the form-A contact as being closed after it has closed and subsequently opened, when measured as
an impedance.
The solution is to use the voltage measuring trigger input of the relay test set, and connect the form-A contact
through a voltage-dropping resistor to a DC voltage source. If the 48 V DC output of the power supply is used as a
source, a 500 , 10 W resistor is appropriate. In this configuration, the voltage across either the form-A contact or
the resistor can be used to monitor the state of the output.
Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the slot position of the module; wherever a number sign “#”
appears, substitute the contact number
NOTE
When current monitoring is used to seal-in the form-A and solid-state relay contact outputs, the Flex-
Logic operand driving the contact output should be given a reset delay of 10 ms to prevent damage
of the output contact (in situations when the element initiating the contact output is bouncing, at val-
ues in the region of the pickup value).

CONTACT INPUTS
A dry contact has one side connected to terminal B3b. This is the positive 48 V DC voltage rail supplied by the power sup-
ply module. The other side of the dry contact is connected to the required contact input terminal. Each contact input group
has its own common (negative) terminal which must be connected to the DC negative terminal (B3a) of the power supply
module. When a dry contact closes, a current of 1 to 3 mA flows through the associated circuit.
A wet contact has one side connected to the positive terminal of an external DC power supply. The other side of this contact
is connected to the required contact input terminal. If a wet contact is used, then the negative side of the external source
must be connected to the relay common (negative) terminal of each contact group. The maximum external source voltage
for this arrangement is 300 V DC.
The voltage threshold at which each group of four contact inputs detects a closed contact input is programmable as
17 V DC for 24 V sources, 33 V DC for 48 V sources, 84 V DC for 110 to 125 V sources, and 166 V DC for 250 V sources.

Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the slot position of the module.
NOTE
Contact outputs can be ordered as form-A or form-C. The form-A contacts can be connected for external circuit supervi-
sion. These contacts are provided with voltage and current monitoring circuits used to detect the loss of DC voltage in the
circuit, and the presence of DC current flowing through the contacts when the form-A contact closes. If enabled, the current
monitoring can be used as a seal-in signal to ensure that the form-A contact does not attempt to break the energized induc-
tive coil circuit and weld the output contacts.
There is no provision in the relay to detect a DC ground fault on 48 V DC control power external output. We recom-
mend using an external DC supply.
NOTE

USE OF CONTACT INPUTS WITH AUTO-BURNISHING

The contact inputs sense a change of the state of the external device contact based on the measured current. When exter-
nal devices are located in a harsh industrial environment (either outdoor or indoor), their contacts can be exposed to vari-
ous types of contamination. Normally, there is a thin film of insulating sulfidation, oxidation, or contaminates on the surface
of the contacts, sometimes making it difficult or impossible to detect a change of the state. This film must be removed to
establish circuit continuity – an impulse of higher than normal current can accomplish this.
The contact inputs with auto-burnish create a high current impulse when the threshold is reached to burn off this oxidation
layer as a maintenance to the contacts. Afterwards the contact input current is reduced to a steady-state current. The
impulse has a 5 second delay after a contact input changes state.

Figure 3–18: CURRENT THROUGH CONTACT INPUTS WITH AUTO-BURNISHING

Regular contact inputs limit current to less than 3 mA to reduce station battery burden. In contrast, contact inputs with auto-
burnishing allow currents up to 50 to 70 mA at the first instance when the change of state was sensed. Then, within 25 to
50 ms, this current is slowly reduced to 3 mA as indicated above. The 50 to 70 mA peak current burns any film on the con-
tacts, allowing for proper sensing of state changes. If the external device contact is bouncing, the auto-burnishing starts
when external device contact bouncing is over.
Another important difference between the auto-burnishing input module and the regular input modules is that only two con-
tact inputs have common ground, as opposed to four contact inputs sharing one common ground (refer to the Contact Input
and Output Module Wiring diagrams). This is beneficial when connecting contact inputs to separate voltage sources. Con-
sequently, the threshold voltage setting is also defined per group of two contact inputs.
The auto-burnish feature can be disabled or enabled using the DIP switches found on each daughter card. There is a DIP
switch for each contact, for a total of 16 inputs.

burnish functionality using an oscilloscope.

3.2.7 TRANSDUCER INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
Transducer input modules can receive input signals from external dcmA output transducers (dcmA In) or resistance tem-
perature detectors (RTD). Hardware and software is provided to receive signals from these external transducers and con-
vert these signals into a digital format for use as required.
Transducer output modules provide DC current outputs in several standard dcmA ranges. Software is provided to configure
virtually any analog quantity used in the relay to drive the analog outputs.
Every transducer input/output module has a total of 24 terminal connections. These connections are arranged as three ter-
minals per row with a total of eight rows. A given row can be used for either inputs or outputs, with terminals in column "a"
having positive polarity and terminals in column "c" having negative polarity. Since an entire row is used for a single input/
output channel, the name of the channel is assigned using the module slot position and row number.
Each module also requires that a connection from an external ground bus be made to terminal 8b. The current outputs
require a twisted-pair shielded cable, where the shield is grounded at one end only. The figure below illustrates the trans- 3
ducer module types (5A, 5C, 5D, 5E, and 5F) and channel arrangements that can be ordered for the relay.
Wherever a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute with the slot position of the module.

3.2.8 RS232 FACEPLATE PORT
A 9-pin RS232C serial port is located on the L30 faceplate for programming with a computer. All that is required to use this
interface is a computer running the EnerVista UR Setup software provided with the relay. Cabling for the RS232 port is
shown in the following figure for both 9-pin and 25-pin connectors.
The baud rate for this port is fixed at 19200 bps.
NOTE

3.2.9 CPU COMMUNICATION PORTS
a) OPTIONS
In addition to the faceplate RS232 port, the L30 provides a rear RS485 communication port.
The CPU modules do not require a surge ground connection.
NOTE

Figure 3–22: CPU MODULE COMMUNICATIONS WIRING
b) RS485 PORTS
RS485 data transmission and reception are accomplished over a single twisted pair with transmit and receive data alternat-
ing over the same two wires. Through the use of the port, continuous monitoring and control from a remote computer,
SCADA system, or PLC is possible.
To minimize errors from noise, the use of shielded twisted pair wire is recommended. Correct polarity must also be
observed. For instance, the relays must be connected with all RS485 “+” terminals connected together, and all RS485 “–”
terminals connected together. Though data is transmitted over a two-wire twisted pair, all RS485 devices require a shared
reference, or common voltage. This common voltage is implied to be a power supply common. Some systems allow the
shield (drain wire) to be used as common wire and to connect directly to the L30 COM terminal (#3); others function cor-
rectly only if the common wire is connected to the L30 COM terminal, but insulated from the shield.
To avoid loop currents, ground the shield at only one point. If other system considerations require the shield to be grounded
at more than one point, install resistors (typically 100 ohms) between the shield and ground at each grounding point. Each
relay needs to be daisy-chained to the next one in the link. A maximum of 32 relays can be connected in this manner with-
out exceeding driver capability. For larger systems, additional serial channels must be added. It is also possible to use com-
mercially available repeaters to have more than 32 relays on a single channel. Avoid star or stub connections entirely.

Lightning strikes and ground surge currents can cause large momentary voltage differences between remote ends of the
communication link. For this reason, surge protection devices are internally provided at both communication ports. An iso-
lated power supply with an optocoupled data interface also acts to reduce noise coupling. To ensure maximum reliability, all
equipment should have similar transient protection devices installed.
Terminate both ends of the RS485 circuit with an impedance as shown below.
Figure 3–23: RS485 SERIAL CONNECTION
c) 100BASE-FX FIBER OPTIC PORTS

Ensure that the dust covers are installed when the fiber is not in use. Dirty or scratched connectors can lead to high
losses on a fiber link.
NOTE
Observing any fiber transmitter output can injure the eye.
The fiber optic communication ports allow for fast and efficient communications between relays at 100 Mbps. Optical fiber
can be connected to the relay supporting a wavelength of 1310 nm in multi-mode.
The fiber optic port is designed such that the response times do not vary for any core that is 100 µm or less in diameter,
62.5 µm for 100 Mbps. For optical power budgeting, splices are required every 1 km for the transmitter/receiver pair. When
splicing optical fibers, the diameter and numerical aperture of each fiber must be the same.

3.2.10 IRIG-B
IRIG-B is a standard time code format that allows stamping of events to be synchronized among connected devices within
1 millisecond. The IRIG time code formats are serial, width-modulated codes that can be either DC level shifted or ampli-
tude modulated (AM). Third party equipment is available for generating the IRIG-B signal; this equipment can use a GPS
satellite system to obtain the time reference so that devices at different geographic locations can be synchronized.
Figure 3–24: OPTIONS FOR THE IRIG-B CONNECTION

Using an amplitude modulated receiver causes errors up to 1 ms in event time-stamping.
NOTE
Using an amplitude modulated receiver also causes errors of up to 1 ms in metered synchrophasor values.

3.3.4 G.703 INTERFACE
a) DESCRIPTION
The following figure shows the 64K ITU G.703 co-directional interface configuration.
The G.703 module is fixed at 64 kbps. The SETTINGS > PRODUCT SETUP > DIRECT I/O > DIRECT I/O DATA
RATE setting is not applicable to this module.
NOTE
AWG 24 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external connections, with the shield grounded only at one end. Con-
necting the shield to pin X1a or X6a grounds the shield since these pins are internally connected to ground. Thus, if pin X1a
or X6a is used, do not ground at the other end. This interface module is protected by surge suppression devices.
Figure 3–27: G.703 INTERFACE CONFIGURATION

The following figure shows the typical pin interconnection between two G.703 interfaces. For the actual physical arrange-
ment of these pins, see the Rear terminal assignments section earlier in this chapter. All pin interconnections are to be
maintained for a connection to a multiplexer.
Figure 3–28: TYPICAL PIN INTERCONNECTION BETWEEN TWO G.703 INTERFACES

Pin nomenclature can differ from one manufacturer to another. Therefore, it is not uncommon to see pinouts num-
bered TxA, TxB, RxA and RxB. In such cases, it can be assumed that “A” is equivalent to “+” and “B” is equivalent
NOTE
to “–”.
b) G.703 SELECTION SWITCH PROCEDURES

1. With the power to the relay off, remove the G.703 module (7R or 7S) as follows. Record the original location of the
module to help ensure that the same or replacement module is inserted into the correct slot.
2. Simultaneously pull the ejector/inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module in order to release the
module for removal.
3. Remove the module cover screw.
4. Remove the top cover by sliding it towards the rear and then lift it upwards.
5. Set the timing selection switches (channel 1, channel 2) to the desired timing modes.
6. Replace the top cover and the cover screw.

7. Re-insert the G.703 module. Take care to ensure that the correct module type is inserted into the correct slot position.
The ejector/inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module must be in the disengaged position as
the module is smoothly inserted into the slot. Once the clips have cleared the raised edge of the chassis, engage the
clips simultaneously. When the clips have locked into position, the module is fully inserted.

S5 = OFF and S6 = ON minimum remote loopback mode
S5 = ON and S6 = ON dual loopback mode
c) G.703 OCTET TIMING

If octet timing is enabled (ON), this 8 kHz signal is asserted during the violation of bit 8 (LSB) necessary for connecting to
higher order systems. When L30s are connected back-to-back, octet timing is disabled (OFF).
d) G.703 TIMING MODES

There are two timing modes for the G.703 module: internal timing mode and loop timing mode (default).
• Internal Timing Mode: The system clock is generated internally. Therefore, the G.703 timing selection should be in
the internal timing mode for back-to-back (UR-to-UR) connections. For back-to-back connections, set for octet timing
(S1 = OFF) and timing mode to internal timing (S5 = ON and S6 = OFF).
• Loop Timing Mode: The system clock is derived from the received line signal. Therefore, the G.703 timing selection
should be in loop timing mode for connections to higher order systems. For connection to a higher order system (UR-
to-multiplexer, factory defaults), set to octet timing (S1 = ON) and set timing mode to loop timing (S5 = OFF and S6 =
OFF).

The switch settings for the internal and loop timing modes are shown below:
e) G.703 TEST MODES

3 In minimum remote loopback mode, the multiplexer is enabled to return the data from the external interface without any
processing to assist in diagnosing G.703 line-side problems irrespective of clock rate. Data enters from the G.703 inputs,
passes through the data stabilization latch which also restores the proper signal polarity, passes through the multiplexer
and then returns to the transmitter. The differential received data is processed and passed to the G.703 transmitter module
after which point the data is discarded. The G.703 receiver module is fully functional and continues to process data and
passes it to the differential Manchester transmitter module. Since timing is returned as it is received, the timing source is
expected to be from the G.703 line side of the interface.

Figure 3–30: G.703 MINIMUM REMOTE LOOPBACK MODE

In dual loopback mode, the multiplexers are active and the functions of the circuit are divided into two with each receiver/
transmitter pair linked together to deconstruct and then reconstruct their respective signals. Differential Manchester data
enters the Differential Manchester receiver module and then is returned to the differential Manchester transmitter module.
Likewise, G.703 data enters the G.703 receiver module and is passed through to the G.703 transmitter module to be
returned as G.703 data. Because of the complete split in the communications path and because, in each case, the clocks
are extracted and reconstructed with the outgoing data, in this mode there must be two independent sources of timing. One
source lies on the G.703 line side of the interface while the other lies on the differential Manchester side of the interface.

3.3.5 RS422 INTERFACE
a) DESCRIPTION
There are three RS422 inter-relay communications modules available: single-channel RS422 (module 7T), dual-channel
RS422 (module 7W), and dual-channel dual-clock RS422 (module 7V). The modules can be configured to run at 64 or
128 kbps. AWG 24 twisted shielded pair cable is recommended for external connections. These modules are protected by
optically-isolated surge suppression devices.
The two-channel two-clock RS422 interface (module 7V) is intended for use with two independent channel banks
with two independent clocks. It is intended for situations where a single clock for both channels is not acceptable.
NOTE
The shield pins (6a and 7b) are internally connected to the ground pin (8a). Proper shield termination is as follows:
• Site 1: Terminate shield to pins 6a or 7b or both.
• Site 2: Terminate shield to COM pin 2b. 3
Match the clock terminating impedance with the impedance of the line.

Figure 3–33: TYPICAL PIN INTERCONNECTION BETWEEN TWO RS422 INTERFACES
b) TWO-CHANNEL APPLICATION VIA MULTIPLEXERS

The RS422 interface can be used for single channel or two channel applications over SONET/SDH or multiplexed systems.
When used in single-channel applications, the RS422 interface links to higher order systems in a typical fashion observing
transmit (Tx), receive (Rx), and send timing (ST) connections. However, when used in two-channel applications, certain cri-
teria must be followed since there is one clock input for the two RS422 channels. The system functions correctly when the
following connections are observed and your data module has a terminal timing feature. Terminal timing is a common fea-
ture to most synchronous data units that allows the module to accept timing from an external source. Using the terminal
timing feature, two channel applications can be achieved if these connections are followed: The send timing outputs from
the multiplexer (data module 1), connects to the clock inputs of the UR–RS422 interface in the usual fashion. In addition,

the send timing outputs of data module 1 is also paralleled to the terminal timing inputs of data module 2. By using this con-
figuration, the timing for both data modules and both UR–RS422 channels are derived from a single clock source. As a
result, data sampling for both of the UR–RS422 channels is synchronized via the send timing leads on data module 1 as
shown below. If the terminal timing feature is not available or this type of connection is not desired, the G.703 interface is a
viable option that does not impose timing restrictions.

Figure 3–34: TIMING CONFIGURATION FOR RS422 TWO-CHANNEL, THREE-TERMINAL APPLICATION

Data module 1 provides timing to the L30 RS422 interface via the ST(A) and ST(B) outputs. Data module 1 also provides
timing to data module 2 TT(A) and TT(B) inputs via the ST(A) and AT(B) outputs. The data module pin numbers have been
omitted in the figure above since they vary by manufacturer.

c) TRANSMIT TIMING
The RS422 interface accepts one clock input for transmit timing. It is important that the rising edge of the 64 kHz transmit
timing clock of the multiplexer interface is sampling the data in the center of the transmit data window. Therefore, it is impor-
tant to confirm clock and data transitions to ensure proper system operation. For example, the following figure shows the
positive edge of the Tx clock in the center of the Tx data bit.

831733A1.CDR
Figure 3–35: CLOCK AND DATA TRANSITIONS
d) RECEIVE TIMING
The RS422 interface utilizes NRZI-MARK modulation code and; therefore, does not rely on an Rx clock to recapture data.
NRZI-MARK is an edge-type, invertible, self-clocking code.
To recover the Rx clock from the data-stream, an integrated DPLL (digital phase lock loop) circuit is utilized. The DPLL is
driven by an internal clock, which is 16-times over-sampled, and uses this clock along with the data-stream to generate a
data clock that can be used as the SCC (serial communication controller) receive clock.
3.3.6 RS422 AND FIBER INTERFACE
The following figure shows the combined RS422 plus fiberoptic interface configuration at 64K baud. The 7L, 7M, 7N, 7P,
and 74 modules are used in two-terminal with a redundant channel or three-terminal configurations where channel 1 is
employed via the RS422 interface (possibly with a multiplexer) and channel 2 via direct fiber.
AWG 20-24 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external RS422 connections and ground the shield only at one end.
For the direct fiber channel, address power budget issues properly.
When using a LASER Interface, attenuators can be necessary to ensure that you do not exceed

channel 2 via direct fiber. AWG 24 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external G.703 connections connecting the

Figure 3–37: G.703 AND FIBER INTERFACE CONNECTION
3.3.8 IEEE C37.94 INTERFACE
The UR-series IEEE C37.94 communication modules (modules types 76, and 77) are designed to interface with IEEE
C37.94 compliant digital multiplexers or an IEEE C37.94 compliant interface converter for use with direct input and output
applications. The IEEE C37.94 standard defines a point-to-point optical link for synchronous data between a multiplexer
and a teleprotection device. This data is typically 64 kbps, but the standard provides for speeds up to 64n kbps, where n =
1, 2,…, 12. The UR-series C37.94 communication modules are either 64 kbps (with n fixed at 1) for 128 kbps (with n fixed
at 2). The frame is a valid International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) recommended G.704 pattern from the stand-
point of framing and data rate. The frame is 256 bits and is repeated at a frame rate of 8000 Hz, with a resultant bit rate of
2048 kbps.
The specifications for the module are as follows:.
• IEEE standard: C37.94 for 2  64 kbps optical fiber interface (for 76 and 77 modules)
• Fiber optic cable type: 50 mm or 62.5 mm core diameter optical fiber
• Fiber optic mode: multi-mode
• Fiber optic cable length: up to 2 km
• Fiber optic connector: type ST
• Wavelength: 830 ±40 nm
• Connection: as per all fiber optic connections, a Tx to Rx connection is required
The UR-series C37.94 communication module can be connected directly to any compliant digital multiplexer that supports
the IEEE C37.94 standard as shown below.

The UR-series C37.94 communication module can be connected to the electrical interface (G.703, RS422, or X.21) of a
non-compliant digital multiplexer via an optical-to-electrical interface converter that supports the IEEE C37.94 standard, as
shown below.
The UR-series C37.94 communication module has six switches that are used to set the clock configuration. The functions
of these control switches are shown below.

For the internal timing mode, the system clock is generated internally. Therefore, the timing switch selection should be
internal timing for relay 1 and loop timed for relay 2. There must be only one timing source configured.
For the looped timing mode, the system clock is derived from the received line signal. Therefore, the timing selection
should be in loop timing mode for connections to higher order systems.
The IEEE C37.94 communications module cover removal procedure is as follows:
1. With power to the relay off, remove the IEEE C37.94 module (type 76 or 77 module) as follows. Record the original
location of the module to help ensure that the same or replacement module is inserted into the correct slot.
module for removal.
5. Set the timing selection switches (channel 1, channel 2) to the desired timing modes (see description above).
6. Replace the top cover and the cover screw.
7. Re-insert the IEEE C37.94 module. Take care to ensure that the correct module type is inserted into the correct slot
position. The ejector/inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module must be in the disengaged posi-
tion as the module is smoothly inserted into the slot. Once the clips have cleared the raised edge of the chassis,
engage the clips simultaneously. When the clips have locked into position, the module is fully inserted.

Modules shipped since January 2012 have status LEDs that indicate the status of the DIP switches, as shown in the follow-
ing figure.
Figure 3–39: STATUS LEDS

The clock configuration LED status is as follows:
• Flashing green — loop timing mode while receiving a valid data packet
• Flashing yellow — internal mode while receiving a valid data packet
• Solid red — (switch to) internal timing mode while not receiving a valid data packet
The link/activity LED status is as follows:
• Flashing green — FPGA is receiving a valid data packet
• Solid yellow — FPGA is receiving a "yellow bit" and remains yellow for each "yellow bit"
• Solid red — FPGA is not receiving a valid packet or the packet received is invalid

3.3.9 C37.94SM INTERFACE
The UR-series C37.94SM communication modules (2A and 2B) are designed to interface with modified IEEE C37.94 com-
pliant digital multiplexers or IEEE C37.94 compliant interface converters that have been converted from 820 nm multi-mode
fiber optics to 1300 nm ELED single-mode fiber optics. The IEEE C37.94 standard defines a point-to-point optical link for
synchronous data between a multiplexer and a teleprotection device. This data is typically 64 kbps, but the standard pro-
vides for speeds up to 64n kbps, where n = 1, 2,…, 12. The UR-series C37.94SM communication module is 64 kbps only
with n fixed at 1. The frame is a valid International Telecommunications Union (ITU-T) recommended G.704 pattern from
the standpoint of framing and data rate. The frame is 256 bits and is repeated at a frame rate of 8000 Hz, with a resultant bit
rate of 2048 kbps.
The specifications for the module are as follows:
• Emulated IEEE standard: emulates C37.94 for 1  64 kbps optical fiber interface (modules set to n = 1 or 64 kbps)
3 • Fiber optic cable type: 9/125 m core diameter optical fiber
• Fiber optic mode: single-mode, ELED compatible with HP HFBR-1315T transmitter and HP HFBR-2316T receiver
• Fiber optic cable length: up to 11.4 km
• Fiber optic connector: type ST
• Wavelength: 1300 ±40 nm
• Connection: as per all fiber optic connections, a Tx to Rx connection is required
The UR-series C37.94SM communication module can be connected directly to any compliant digital multiplexer that sup-
ports C37.94SM as shown below.
It can also can be connected directly to any other UR-series relay with a C37.94SM module as shown below.
The UR-series C37.94SM communication module has six switches that are used to set the clock configuration. The func-
tions of these control switches are shown below.
For the internal timing mode, the system clock is generated internally. Therefore, the timing switch selection should be
internal timing for relay 1 and loop timed for relay 2. There must be only one timing source configured.

For the looped timing mode, the system clock is derived from the received line signal. Therefore, the timing selection
should be in loop timing mode for connections to higher order systems.

4 HUMAN INTERFACES 4.1 ENERVISTA UR SETUP SOFTWARE INTERFACE
4 HUMAN INTERFACES 4.1ENERVISTA UR SETUP SOFTWARE INTERFACE 4.1.1 INTRODUCTION
The EnerVista UR Setup software provides a graphical user interface (GUI) as one of two human interfaces to a UR device.
The alternate human interface is implemented via the device’s faceplate keypad and display (see the Faceplate interface
section in this chapter).
The EnerVista UR Setup software provides a single facility to configure, monitor, maintain, and troubleshoot the operation
of relay functions, connected over local or wide area communication networks. It can be used while disconnected (offline)
or connected (online) to a UR device. In offline mode, settings files can be created for eventual downloading to the device.
In online mode, you can communicate with the device in real-time.
The EnerVista UR Setup software is provided with every L30 relay and runs on Microsoft Windows XP, 7, and Server 2008.
This chapter provides a summary of the basic EnerVista UR Setup software interface features. The EnerVista UR Setup
Help File provides details for getting started and using the EnerVista UR Setup software interface.
4.1.2 CREATING A SITE LIST
To start using the EnerVista UR Setup software, site and device definition are required. See the EnerVista UR Setup Help
File or refer to the Connecting EnerVista UR Setup with the L30 section in Chapter 1 for details.
4.1.3 ENERVISTA UR SETUP OVERVIEW 4

a) ENGAGING A DEVICE
The EnerVista UR Setup software can be used in online mode (relay connected) to directly communicate with the L30
relay. Communicating relays are organized and grouped by communication interfaces and into sites. Sites can contain any
number of relays selected from the UR-series of relays.
b) USING SETTINGS FILES

The EnerVista UR Setup software interface supports three ways of handling changes to relay settings:
• In offline mode (relay disconnected) to create or edit relay settings files for later download to communicating relays
• While connected to a communicating relay to directly modify any relay settings via relay data view windows, and then
save the settings to the relay
• You can create/edit settings files and then write them to the relay while the interface is connected to the relay
Settings files are organized on the basis of file names assigned by the user. A settings file contains data pertaining to the
following types of relay settings:
• Device definition
• Product setup
• System setup
• FlexLogic
• Grouped elements
• Control elements
• Inputs/outputs
• Testing
Factory default values are supplied and can be restored after any changes.
The following communications settings are not transferred to the L30 with settings files.
Modbus Slave Address

When a settings file is loaded to a L30 that is in-service, the following sequence occurs:
1. The L30 takes itself out of service.
2. The L30 issues a UNIT NOT PROGRAMMED major self-test error.
3. The L30 closes the critical fail contact.
c) CREATING AND EDITING FLEXLOGIC™

You create or edit a FlexLogic equation in order to customize the relay. You can subsequently view the automatically gener-
ated logic diagram.
4 d) VIEWING ACTUAL VALUES

You can view real-time relay data such as input/output status and measured parameters.
e) VIEWING TRIGGERED EVENTS

While the interface is in either online or offline mode, you can view and analyze data generated by triggered specified
parameters, via one of the following:
• Event recorder
The event recorder captures contextual data associated with the last 1024 events, listed in chronological order from
most recent to oldest.
• Oscillography
The oscillography waveform traces and digital states are used to provide a visual display of power system and relay
operation data captured during specific triggered events.
f) FILE SUPPORT
• Execution: Any EnerVista UR Setup file that is opened launches the application or provides focus to the already
opened application. If the file was a settings file (has a URS extension) that had been removed from the Settings List
tree menu, it is added back to the Settings List tree menu.
• Drag and Drop: The Site List and Settings List control bar windows are each mutually a drag source and a drop target
for device-order-code-compatible files or individual menu items. Also, the Settings List control bar window and any
Windows Explorer directory folder are each mutually a file drag source and drop target.
New files that are dropped into the Settings List window are added to the tree, which is automatically sorted alphabeti-
cally with respect to settings file names. Files or individual menu items that are dropped in the selected device menu in
the Site List window are automatically sent to the online communicating device.
g) FIRMWARE UPGRADES
The firmware of a L30 device can be upgraded, locally or remotely, via the EnerVista UR Setup software. The correspond-
ing instructions are provided by the EnerVista UR Setup Help file under the topic “Upgrading Firmware”.
Modbus addresses assigned to firmware modules, features, settings, and corresponding data items (that is, default
values, minimum/maximum values, data type, and item size) can change slightly from version to version of firm-
NOTE
ware. The addresses are rearranged when new features are added or existing features are enhanced or modified.
The EEPROM DATA ERROR message displayed after upgrading/downgrading the firmware is a resettable, self-test
message intended to inform users that the Modbus addresses have changed with the upgraded firmware. This
message does not signal any problems when appearing after firmware upgrades.

4.2 EXTENDED ENERVISTA UR SETUP FEATURES 4 HUMAN INTERFACES
4.2EXTENDED ENERVISTA UR SETUP FEATURES 4.2.1 SETTINGS TEMPLATES
Setting file templates simplify the configuration and commissioning of multiple relays that protect similar assets. An exam-
ple of this is a substation that has ten similar feeders protected by ten UR-series F60 relays.
In these situations, typically 90% or greater of the settings are identical between all devices. The templates feature allows
engineers to configure and test these common settings, then lock them so that they are not available to users. For exam-
ple, these locked down settings can be hidden from view for field engineers, allowing them to quickly identify and concen-
trate on the specific settings.
The remaining settings (typically 10% or less) can be specified as editable and be made available to field engineers install-
ing the devices. These are settings such as protection element pickup values and CT and VT ratios.
The settings template mode allows the user to define which settings are visible in EnerVista UR Setup. Settings templates
can be applied to both settings files (settings file templates) and online devices (online settings templates). The functionality
is identical for both purposes.
Settings files conversion from previous firmware versions is supported.
a) ENABLING THE SETTINGS TEMPLATE

The settings file template feature is disabled by default. The following procedure describes how to enable the settings tem-
4 plate for UR-series settings files.
1. Select a settings file from the offline window of the EnerVista UR Setup main screen.
2. Right-click the selected device or settings file and select the Template Mode > Create Template option.
The settings file template is now enabled and the file tree displayed in light blue. The settings file is now in template editing
mode.
Alternatively, the settings template can also be applied to online settings. The following procedure describes this process.
1. Select an installed device from the online window of the EnerVista UR Setup main screen.
2. Right-click the selected device and select the Template Mode > Create Template option.
The software prompts for a template password. This password is required to use the template feature and must be at
least four characters in length.
3. Enter and re-enter the new password, then click OK to continue.
The online settings template is now enabled. The device is now in template editing mode.
b) EDITING THE SETTINGS TEMPLATE

The settings template editing feature allows the user to specify which settings are available for viewing and modification in
EnerVista UR Setup. By default, all settings except the FlexLogic equation editor settings are locked.
1. Select an installed device or a settings file from the tree menu on the left of the EnerVista UR Setup main screen.
2. Select the Template Mode > Edit Template option to place the device in template editing mode.

1. Select a settings file from the offline window on the left of the EnerVista UR Setup main screen.
2. Selecting the Template Mode > Password Protect Template option.

The software prompts for a template password. This password must be at least four characters in length.
3. Enter and re-enter the new password, then click OK to continue.

The settings file template is now secured with password protection.
When templates are created for online settings, the password is added during the initial template creation step. It
does not need to be added after the template is created.
NOTE
d) VIEWING THE SETTINGS TEMPLATE

Once all necessary settings are specified for viewing, users are able to view the settings template on the online device or
4 settings file. There are two ways to specify the settings view with the settings template feature:
• Display only those settings available for editing
• Display all settings, with settings not available for editing greyed-out
Use the following procedure to only display settings available for editing:
2. Apply the template by selecting the Template Mode > View In Template Mode option.
3. Enter the template password then click OK to apply the template.

It can be necessary at some point to remove a settings template. Once a template is removed, it cannot be reapplied and it
is necessary to define a new settings template.
1. Select an installed device or settings file from the tree menu on the left of the EnerVista UR Setup main screen.
2. Select the Template Mode > Remove Settings Template option.
3. Enter the template password and click OK to continue.

4. Verify one more time that you want to remove the template by clicking Yes.
The EnerVista software removes all template information and all settings are available.
4.2.2 SECURING AND LOCKING FLEXLOGIC EQUATIONS
The UR allows users to secure parts or all of a FlexLogic equation, preventing unauthorized viewing or modification of criti-
cal FlexLogic applications. This is accomplished using the settings template feature to lock individual entries within Flex-
Logic equations.
Secured FlexLogic equations remain secure when files are sent to and retrieved from any UR-series device.
a) LOCKING FLEXLOGIC EQUATION ENTRIES
4 The following procedure describes how to lock individual entries of a FlexLogic equation.
1. Right-click the settings file or online device and select the Template Mode > Create Template item to enable the set-
tings template feature.
2. Select the FlexLogic > FlexLogic Equation Editor settings menu item.
By default, all FlexLogic entries are specified as viewable and displayed against a yellow background. The icon on the
upper right of the window also indicates that EnerVista UR Setup is in EDIT mode.
3. Specify which entries to lock by clicking on them.
The locked entries are displayed against a grey background as shown in the example below.
Figure 4–7: LOCKING FLEXLOGIC ENTRIES IN EDIT MODE

4. Click on Save to save and apply changes to the settings template.
5. Select the Template Mode > View In Template Mode option to view the template.
6. Apply a password to the template then click OK to secure the FlexLogic equation.

Once the template has been applied, users are limited to view and edit the FlexLogic entries not locked by the template.

The FlexLogic entries are also shown as locked in the graphical view (as shown below) and on the front panel display.
Figure 4–9: SECURED FLEXLOGIC IN GRAPHICAL VIEW
b) LOCKING FLEXLOGIC EQUATIONS TO A SERIAL NUMBER

A settings file and associated FlexLogic equations can also be locked to a specific UR serial number. Once the desired
FlexLogic entries in a settings file have been secured, use the following procedure to lock the settings file to a specific serial
number.
1. Select the settings file in the offline window.
2. Right-click on the file and select the Edit Settings File Properties item.

The following window is displayed.
Figure 4–10: TYPICAL SETTINGS FILE PROPERTIES WINDOW
4 3. Enter the serial number of the L30 device to lock to the settings file in the Serial # Lock field.
The settings file and corresponding secure FlexLogic equations are now locked to the L30 device specified by the serial
number.
4.2.3 SETTINGS FILE TRACEABILITY
A traceability feature for settings files allows the user to quickly determine if the settings in a L30 device have been
changed since the time of installation from a settings file. When a settings file is transferred to a L30 device, the date, time,
and serial number of the L30 are sent back to EnerVista UR Setup and added to the settings file on the local PC. This infor-
mation can be compared with the L30 actual values at any later date to determine if security has been compromised.
The traceability information is only included in the settings file if a complete settings file is either transferred to the L30
device or obtained from the L30 device. Any partial settings transfers by way of drag and drop do not add the traceability
information to the settings file.
Figure 4–11: SETTINGS FILE TRACEABILITY MECHANISM

With respect to the above diagram, the traceability feature is used as follows.

1. The transfer date of a setting file written to a L30 is logged in the relay and can be viewed via EnerVista UR Setup or
the front panel display. Likewise, the transfer date of a setting file saved to a local PC is logged in EnerVista UR Setup.
2. Comparing the dates stored in the relay and on the settings file at any time in the future indicates if any changes have
been made to the relay configuration since the settings file was saved.
a) SETTINGS FILE TRACEABILITY INFORMATION

The serial number and file transfer date are saved in the settings files when they are sent to a L30 device.
The L30 serial number and file transfer date are included in the settings file device definition within the EnerVista UR Setup
offline window as shown in the example below.

c) ADDITIONAL TRACEABILITY RULES
4 The following additional rules apply for the traceability feature

• If the user changes any settings within the settings file in the offline window, then the traceability information is
removed from the settings file.
• If the user creates a new settings file, then no traceability information is included in the settings file.
• If the user converts an existing settings file to another revision, then any existing traceability information is removed
from the settings file.
• If the user duplicates an existing settings file, then any traceability information is transferred to the duplicate settings
file.

4.3.2 LED INDICATORS
The enhanced front panel display provides five columns of LED indicators. The first column contains 14 status and event
cause LEDs, and the next four columns contain the 48 user-programmable LEDs.
The RESET key is used to reset any latched LED indicator or target message, once the condition has been cleared (these
latched conditions can also be reset via the SETTINGS  INPUT/OUTPUTS  RESETTING menu). The RS232 port is
intended for connection to a portable PC.
The USER keys are used by the breaker control feature.
842811A1.CDR
Figure 4–18: TYPICAL LED INDICATOR PANEL FOR ENHANCED FACEPLATE

The status indicators in the first column are described below.
• IN SERVICE: This LED indicates that control power is applied, all monitored inputs, outputs, and internal systems are
OK, and that the device has been programmed.

• TROUBLE: This LED indicates that the relay has detected an internal problem.
• TEST MODE: This LED indicates that the relay is in test mode.
• TRIP: This LED indicates that the FlexLogic operand serving as a trip switch has operated. This indicator always
latches; as such, a reset command must be initiated to allow the latch to be reset.
• ALARM: This LED indicates that the FlexLogic operand serving as an alarm switch has operated. This indicator is
never latched.
• PICKUP: This LED indicates that an element is picked up. This indicator is never latched.
The event cause indicators in the first column are described below.
Events cause LEDs are turned on or off by protection elements that have their respective target setting selected as either
“Enabled” or “Latched”. If a protection element target setting is “Enabled”, then the corresponding event cause LEDs
remain on as long as operate operand associated with the element remains asserted. If a protection element target setting
is “Latched”, then the corresponding event cause LEDs turn on when the operate operand associated with the element is
asserted and remain on until the RESET button on the front panel is pressed after the operand is reset.
All elements that are able to discriminate faulted phases can independently turn off or on the phase A, B or C LEDs. This
includes phase instantaneous overcurrent, phase undervoltage, etc. This means that the phase A, B, and C operate oper-
ands for individual protection elements are ORed to turn on or off the phase A, B or C LEDs.
• VOLTAGE: This LED indicates voltage was involved. 4
• CURRENT: This LED indicates current was involved.
• FREQUENCY: This LED indicates frequency was involved.
• OTHER: This LED indicates a composite function was involved.
• PHASE A: This LED indicates phase A was involved.
• PHASE B: This LED indicates phase B was involved.
• PHASE C: This LED indicates phase C was involved.
• NEUTRAL/GROUND: This LED indicates that neutral or ground was involved.
The user-programmable LEDs consist of 48 amber LED indicators in four columns. The operation of these LEDs is user-
defined. Support for applying a customized label beside every LED is provided. Default labels are shipped in the label pack-
age of every L30, together with custom templates. The default labels can be replaced by user-printed labels.
User customization of LED operation is of maximum benefit in installations where languages other than English are used to
communicate with operators. Refer to the User-programmable LEDs section in chapter 5 for the settings used to program
the operation of the LEDs on these panels.
The standard faceplate consists of three panels with LED indicators, keys, and a communications port. The RESET key is
used to reset any latched LED indicator or target message, once the condition has been cleared (these latched conditions
can also be reset via the SETTINGS  INPUT/OUTPUTS  RESETTING menu). The RS232 port is for connection to a com-
puter.
The USER keys are used by the breaker control feature.

“Enabled” or “Latched”. If a protection element target setting is “Enabled”, then the corresponding event cause LEDs
remain on as long as operate operand associated with the element remains asserted. If a protection element target setting
is “Latched”, then the corresponding event cause LEDs turn on when the operate operand associated with the element is
asserted and remain on until the RESET button on the front panel is pressed after the operand is reset.
4 All elements that are able to discriminate faulted phases can independently turn off or on the phase A, B or C LEDs. This
includes phase instantaneous overcurrent, phase undervoltage, etc. This means that the phase A, B, and C operate oper-
ands for individual protection elements are ORed to turn on or off the phase A, B or C LEDs.
• VOLTAGE: Indicates voltage was involved.
• CURRENT: Indicates current was involved.
• FREQUENCY: Indicates frequency was involved.
• OTHER: Indicates a composite function was involved.
• PHASE A: Indicates phase A was involved.
• PHASE B: Indicates phase B was involved.
• PHASE C: Indicates phase C was involved.
• NEUTRAL/GROUND: Indicates that neutral or ground was involved.
USER-PROGRAMMABLE INDICATORS:
The second and third provide 48 amber LED indicators whose operation is controlled by the user. Support for applying a
customized label beside every LED is provided.
User customization of LED operation is of maximum benefit in installations where languages other than English are used to
communicate with operators. Refer to the User-programmable LEDs section in chapter 5 for the settings used to program
the operation of the LEDs on these panels.

DEFAULT LABELS FOR LED PANEL 2:
The default labels are intended to represent:

• GROUP 1...6: The illuminated GROUP is the active settings group.

• BREAKER 1(2) OPEN: The breaker is open.
• BREAKER 1(2) CLOSED: The breaker is closed.
• BREAKER 1(2) TROUBLE: A problem related to the breaker has been detected.
• SYNCHROCHECK NO1(2) IN-SYNCH: Voltages have satisfied the synchrocheck element.
• RECLOSE ENABLED: The recloser is operational.
• RECLOSE DISABLED: The recloser is not operational.
• RECLOSE IN PROGRESS: A reclose operation is in progress.
• RECLOSE LOCKED OUT: The recloser is not operational and requires a reset.
The relay is shipped with the default label for the LED panel 2. The LEDs, however, are not pre-programmed. To match the
pre-printed label, the LED settings must be entered as shown in the User-programmable LEDs section of chapter 5. The
LEDs are fully user-programmable. The default labels can be replaced by user-printed labels for both panels as explained
in the following section.

4.3.4 DISPLAY
All messages are displayed on a backlit liquid crystal display (LCD) to make them visible under poor lighting conditions.
4
While the keypad and display are not actively being used, the display defaults to user-defined messages. Any high-priority
event-driven message automatically overrides the default message and appears on the display.
4.3.5 KEYPAD
Display messages are organized into pages under the following headings: actual values, settings, commands, and targets.
The MENU key navigates through these pages. Each heading page is divided further into logical subgroups.
The MESSAGE keys navigate through the subgroups. The VALUE keys increment or decrement numerical setting values
when in programming mode. These keys also scroll through alphanumeric values in the text edit mode. Alternatively, val-
ues can be entered with the numeric keypad.
The decimal key initiates and advances to the next character in text edit mode or enters a decimal point.
The HELP key can be pressed at any time for context-sensitive help messages.
The ENTER key stores altered setting values.
4.3.6 BREAKER CONTROL
a) INTRODUCTION
The L30 can interface with associated circuit breakers. In many cases the application monitors the state of the breaker, that
can be presented on faceplate LEDs, along with a breaker trouble indication. Breaker operations can be manually initiated
from faceplate keypad or automatically initiated from a FlexLogic operand. A setting is provided to assign names to each
breaker; this user-assigned name is used for the display of related flash messages. These features are provided for two
breakers; the user can use only those portions of the design relevant to a single breaker, which must be breaker 1.
For the following discussion it is assumed the SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  BREAKERS  BREAKER 1(2)  BREAKER
FUNCTION setting is "Enabled" for each breaker.
b) CONTROL MODE SELECTION AND MONITORING

Installations can require that a breaker is operated in the three-pole only mode (3-pole), or in the one and three-pole (1-
pole) mode, selected by setting. If the mode is selected as three-pole, a single input tracks the breaker open or closed posi-
tion. If the mode is selected as one-pole, all three breaker pole states must be input to the relay. These inputs must be in
agreement to indicate the position of the breaker.
For the following discussion it is assumed the SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  BREAKERS  BREAKER 1(2)  BREAKER
1(2) PUSH BUTTON CONTROL setting is “Enabled” for each breaker.

c) FACEPLATE (USER KEY) CONTROL

After the 30 minute interval during which command functions are permitted after a correct command password, the user
cannot open or close a breaker via the keypad. The following discussions begin from the not-permitted state.
d) CONTROL OF TWO BREAKERS

For the following example setup, the (Name) field represents the user-programmed variable name.
For this application (setup shown below), the relay is connected and programmed for both breaker 1 and breaker 2. The
USER 1 key performs the selection of which breaker is to be operated by the USER 2 and USER 3 keys. The USER 2 key
is used to manually close the breaker and the USER 3 key is used to manually open the breaker.
ENTER COMMAND This message appears when the USER 1, USER 2, or USER 3 key is pressed and a
PASSWORD COMMAND PASSWORD is required; i.e. if COMMAND PASSWORD is enabled and no com-
mands have been issued within the last 30 minutes.
Press USER 1 This message appears if the correct password is entered or if none is required. This mes-
To Select Breaker sage displays for 30 seconds or until the USER 1 key is pressed again.
BKR1-(Name) SELECTED This message is displayed after the USER 1 key is pressed for the second time. Three
4 USER 2=CLS/USER 3=OP possible actions can be performed from this state within 30 seconds as per items (1), (2)
and (3) below:
(1)
USER 2 OFF/ON If the USER 2 key is pressed, this message appears for 20 seconds. If the USER 2 key is
To Close BKR1-(Name) pressed again within that time, a signal is created that can be programmed to operate an
output relay to close breaker 1.
(2)
USER 3 OFF/ON If the USER 3 key is pressed, this message appears for 20 seconds. If the USER 3 key is
To Open BKR1-(Name) pressed again within that time, a signal is created that can be programmed to operate an
output relay to open breaker 1.
(3)
BKR2-(Name) SELECTED If the USER 1 key is pressed at this step, this message appears showing that a different
USER 2=CLS/USER 3=OP breaker is selected. Three possible actions can be performed from this state as per (1),
(2) and (3). Repeatedly pressing the USER 1 key alternates between available breakers.
Pressing keys other than USER 1, 2, or 3 at any time aborts the breaker control function.
e) CONTROL OF ONE BREAKER

For this application the relay is connected and programmed for breaker 1 only. Operation for this application is identical to
that described above for two breakers.
4.3.7 MENUS
a) NAVIGATION
Press the MENU key to select a header display page (top-level menu). The header title appears momentarily followed by a
header display page menu item. Each press of the MENU key advances through the following main heading pages:
• Actual values
• Settings
• Commands
• Targets
• User displays (when enabled)

b) HIERARCHY
The setting and actual value messages are arranged hierarchically. The header display pages are indicated by double
scroll bar characters (), while sub-header pages are indicated by single scroll bar characters (). The header display
pages represent the highest level of the hierarchy and the sub-header display pages fall below this level. The MESSAGE
UP and DOWN keys move within a group of headers, sub-headers, setting values, or actual values. Continually pressing
the MESSAGE RIGHT key from a header display displays specific information for the header category. Conversely, contin-
ually pressing the MESSAGE LEFT key from a setting value or actual value display returns to the header display.

4.3.8 CHANGING SETTINGS
a) ENTERING NUMERICAL DATA

Each numerical setting has its own minimum, maximum, and increment value associated with it. These parameters define
what values are acceptable for a setting.
FLASH MESSAGE For example, select the SETTINGS  PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES  FLASH
TIME: 1.0 s MESSAGE TIME setting.

MINIMUM: 0.5 Press the HELP key to view the minimum and maximum values. Press the HELP key
MAXIMUM: 10.0 again to view the next context sensitive help message.
Two methods of editing and storing a numerical setting value are available.
• 0 to 9 and decimal point: The relay numeric keypad works the same as that of any electronic calculator. A number is
entered one digit at a time. The leftmost digit is entered first and the rightmost digit is entered last. Pressing the MES-
SAGE LEFT key or pressing the ESCAPE key, returns the original value to the display.
• VALUE keys: The VALUE UP key increments the displayed value by the step value, up to the maximum value allowed.
4 While at the maximum value, pressing the VALUE UP key again allows the setting selection to continue upward from
the minimum value. The VALUE DOWN key decrements the displayed value by the step value, down to the minimum
value. While at the minimum value, pressing the VALUE DOWN key again allows the setting selection to continue
downward from the maximum value.
FLASH MESSAGE As an example, set the flash message time setting to 2.5 seconds. Press the appropriate
TIME: 2.5 s numeric keys in the sequence “2 . 5". The display message changes as the digits are
 being entered.
NEW SETTING Until ENTER is pressed, editing changes are not registered by the relay. Therefore, press
HAS BEEN STORED ENTER to store the new value in memory. This flash message momentarily appears as
confirmation of the storing process. Numerical values which contain decimal places are
rounded-off if more decimal place digits are entered than specified by the step value.
b) ENTERING ENUMERATION DATA

Enumeration settings have data values which are part of a set, whose members are explicitly defined by a name. A set is
comprised of two or more members.
ACCESS LEVEL: For example, the selections available for ACCESS LEVEL are "Restricted", "Command",
Restricted "Setting", and "Factory Service".
Enumeration type values are changed using the VALUE keys. The VALUE UP key displays the next selection while the
VALUE DOWN key displays the previous selection.
ACCESS LEVEL: If the ACCESS LEVEL needs to be "Setting", press the VALUE keys until the proper selec-
Setting tion is displayed. Press HELP at any time for the context sensitive help messages.

NEW SETTING Changes are not registered by the relay until the ENTER key is pressed. Pressing
HAS BEEN STORED ENTER stores the new value in memory. This flash message momentarily appears as
confirmation of the storing process.
c) ENTERING ALPHANUMERIC TEXT

Text settings have data values which are fixed in length, but user-defined in character. They can be upper case letters,
lower case letters, numerals, and a selection of special characters.

There are several places where text messages can be programmed to allow the relay to be customized for specific applica-
tions. One example is the Message Scratchpad. Use the following procedure to enter alphanumeric text messages.
For example: to enter the text, “Breaker #1”.
1. Press the decimal point to enter text edit mode.
2. Press the VALUE keys until the character 'B' appears; press the decimal key to advance the cursor to the next position.
3. Repeat step 2 for the remaining characters: r,e,a,k,e,r, ,#,1.
4. Press ENTER to store the text.
5. If you have any problem, press HELP to view context sensitive help. Flash messages appear sequentially for several
seconds each. For the case of a text setting message, pressing HELP displays how to edit and store new values.
d) ACTIVATING THE RELAY
RELAY SETTINGS: When the relay is powered up, the Trouble LED is on, the In Service LED off, and this
Not Programmed message displayed, indicating the relay is in the "Not Programmed" state and is safe-
guarding (output relays blocked) against the installation of a relay whose settings have
not been entered. This message remains until the relay is explicitly put in the "Pro-
grammed" state.

e) ENTERING INITIAL PASSWORDS

The information in this section refers to password security. For information on how to set or change CyberSentry pass-
words, see the Settings > Product Setup > Security > CyberSentry section in the next chapter.

The L30 supports password entry from a local or remote connection.

Local access is defined as any access to settings or commands via the faceplate interface. This includes both keypad entry
and the faceplate RS232 connection. Remote access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear com-
munications port. This includes both Ethernet and RS485 connections. Any changes to the local or remote passwords
enables this functionality.
To enter the initial setting (or command) password, proceed as follows:
1. Press the MENU key until the SETTINGS header flashes momentarily and the PRODUCT SETUP message appears on the
display.
2. Press the MESSAGE RIGHT key until the ACCESS LEVEL message appears on the display.
3. Press the MESSAGE DOWN key until the CHANGE LOCAL PASSWORDS message appears on the display.

f) CHANGING EXISTING PASSWORD

To change an existing password, follow the instructions in the previous section with the following exception. A message
prompts you to type in the existing password (for each security level) before a new password can be entered.
g) INVALID PASSWORD ENTRY

When an incorrect command or setting password has been entered via the faceplate interface three times within a 3-minute
time span, the LOCAL ACCESS DENIED FlexLogic operand is set to “On” and the L30 does not allow settings or command
level access via the faceplate interface for the next five minutes, or in the event that an incorrect Command Or Setting
password has been entered via the any external communications interface three times within a 3-minute time span, the
REMOTE ACCESS DENIED FlexLogic operand is set to “On” and the L30 does not allow settings or command access via the
any external communications interface for the next five minutes.

In the event that an incorrect Command or Setting password has been entered via the any external communications inter-
face three times within a three-minute time span, the REMOTE ACCESS DENIED FlexLogic operand is set to “On” and the
L30 does not allow Settings or Command access via the any external communications interface for the next ten minutes.
The REMOTE ACCESS DENIED FlexLogic operand is set to “Off” after the expiration of the ten-minute timeout.

5.1.2 INTRODUCTION TO ELEMENTS
In the design of UR relays, the term element is used to describe a feature that is based around a comparator. The compar-
ator is provided with an input (or set of inputs) that is tested against a programmed setting (or group of settings) to deter-
mine if the input is within the defined range that will set the output to logic 1, also referred to as setting the flag. A single
comparator may make multiple tests and provide multiple outputs; for example, the time overcurrent comparator sets a
pickup flag when the current input is above the setting and sets an operate flag when the input current has been at a level
above the pickup setting for the time specified by the time-current curve settings. All comparators use analog parameter
actual values as the input.
The exception to the above rule are the digital elements, which use logic states as inputs.
NOTE
Elements are arranged into two classes, grouped and control. Each element classed as a grouped element is provided with
six alternate sets of settings, in setting groups numbered 1 through 6. The performance of a grouped element is defined by
the setting group that is active at a given time. The performance of a control element is independent of the selected active
setting group.
The main characteristics of an element are shown on the element logic diagram. This includes the inputs, settings, fixed
logic, and the output operands generated (abbreviations used on scheme logic diagrams are defined in Appendix F).
Some settings for current and voltage elements are specified in per-unit (pu) calculated quantities:
pu quantity = (actual quantity) / (base quantity)
For current elements, the base quantity is the nominal secondary or primary current of the CT.
Where the current source is the sum of two CTs with different ratios, the base quantity will be the common secondary or pri-
5 mary current to which the sum is scaled (that is, normalized to the larger of the two rated CT inputs). For example, if CT1 =
300 / 5 A and CT2 = 100 / 5 A, then in order to sum these, CT2 is scaled to the CT1 ratio. In this case, the base quantity will
be 5 A secondary or 300 A primary.
For voltage elements the base quantity is the nominal primary voltage of the protected system which corresponds (based
on VT ratio and connection) to secondary VT voltage applied to the relay.
For example, on a system with a 13.8 kV nominal primary voltage and with 14400:120 V delta-connected VTs, the second-
ary nominal voltage (1 pu) would be:
13800

Many settings are common to most elements and are discussed below:
• FUNCTION setting: This setting programs the element to be operational when selected as “Enabled”. The factory
default is “Disabled”. Once programmed to “Enabled”, any element associated with the function becomes active and all
options become available.
• NAME setting: This setting is used to uniquely identify the element.
• SOURCE setting: This setting is used to select the parameter or set of parameters to be monitored.
• PICKUP setting: For simple elements, this setting is used to program the level of the measured parameter above or
below which the pickup state is established. In more complex elements, a set of settings may be provided to define the
range of the measured parameters which will cause the element to pickup.
• PICKUP DELAY setting: This setting sets a time-delay-on-pickup, or on-delay, for the duration between the pickup
and operate output states.
• RESET DELAY setting: This setting is used to set a time-delay-on-dropout, or off-delay, for the duration between the
Operate output state and the return to logic 0 after the input transits outside the defined pickup range.

• BLOCK setting: The default output operand state of all comparators is a logic 0 or “flag not set”. The comparator
remains in this default state until a logic 1 is asserted at the RUN input, allowing the test to be performed. If the RUN
input changes to logic 0 at any time, the comparator returns to the default state. The RUN input is used to supervise
the comparator. The BLOCK input is used as one of the inputs to RUN control.
• TARGET setting: This setting is used to define the operation of an element target message. When set to “Disabled”,
no target message or illumination of a faceplate LED indicator is issued upon operation of the element. When set to
“Self-Reset”, the target message and LED indication follow the operate state of the element, and self-resets once the
operate element condition clears. When set to “Latched”, the target message and LED indication will remain visible
after the element output returns to logic 0 until a RESET command is received by the relay.
• EVENTS setting: This setting is used to control whether the pickup, dropout or operate states are recorded by the
event recorder. When set to “Disabled”, element pickup, dropout or operate are not recorded as events. When set to
“Enabled”, events are created for:
(Element) PKP (pickup)
(Element) DPO (dropout)
(Element) OP (operate)
The DPO event is created when the measure and decide comparator output transits from the pickup state (logic 1) to
the dropout state (logic 0). This could happen when the element is in the operate state if the reset delay time is not 0.
5.1.3 INTRODUCTION TO AC SOURCES
a) BACKGROUND
The L30 may be used on systems with breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configurations. In these applications, each of the two
three-phase sets of individual phase currents (one associated with each breaker) can be used as an input to a breaker fail-
ure element. The sum of both breaker phase currents and 3I_0 residual currents may be required for the circuit relaying
and metering functions. For a three-winding transformer application, it may be required to calculate watts and vars for each 5
of three windings, using voltage from different sets of VTs. These requirements can be satisfied with a single UR, equipped
with sufficient CT and VT input channels, by selecting the parameter to measure. A mechanism is provided to specify the
AC parameter (or group of parameters) used as the input to protection/control comparators and some metering elements.
Selection of the parameter(s) to measure is partially performed by the design of a measuring element or protection/control
comparator by identifying the type of parameter (fundamental frequency phasor, harmonic phasor, symmetrical component,
total waveform RMS magnitude, phase-phase or phase-ground voltage, etc.) to measure. The user completes the process
by selecting the instrument transformer input channels to use and some of the parameters calculated from these channels.
The input parameters available include the summation of currents from multiple input channels. For the summed currents of
phase, 3I_0, and ground current, current from CTs with different ratios are adjusted to a single ratio before summation.
A mechanism called a source configures the routing of CT and VT input channels to measurement sub-systems. Sources,
in the context of UR series relays, refer to the logical grouping of current and voltage signals such that one source contains
all the signals required to measure the load or fault in a particular power apparatus. A given source may contain all or some
of the following signals: three-phase currents, single-phase ground current, three-phase voltages and an auxiliary voltage
from a single VT for checking for synchronism.
To illustrate the concept of sources, as applied to current inputs only, consider the breaker-and-a-half scheme below. In this
application, the current flows as shown by the arrows. Some current flows through the upper bus bar to some other location
or power equipment, and some current flows into transformer winding 1. The current into winding 1 is the phasor sum (or
difference) of the currents in CT1 and CT2 (whether the sum or difference is used depends on the relative polarity of the CT
connections). The same considerations apply to transformer winding 2. The protection elements require access to the net
current for transformer protection, but some elements may need access to the individual currents from CT1 and CT2.

Figure 5–1: BREAKER-AND-A-HALF SCHEME

In conventional analog or electronic relays, the sum of the currents is obtained from an appropriate external connection of
all CTs through which any portion of the current for the element being protected could flow. Auxiliary CTs are required to
perform ratio matching if the ratios of the primary CTs to be summed are not identical. In the UR series of relays, provisions
have been included for all the current signals to be brought to the UR device where grouping, ratio correction and summa-
tion are applied internally via configuration settings.
A major advantage of using internal summation is that the individual currents are available to the protection device; for
example, as additional information to calculate a restraint current, or to allow the provision of additional protection features
5 that operate on the individual currents such as breaker failure.
Given the flexibility of this approach, it becomes necessary to add configuration settings to the platform to allow the user to
select which sets of CT inputs will be added to form the net current into the protected device.
The internal grouping of current and voltage signals forms an internal source. This source can be given a specific name
through the settings, and becomes available to protection and metering elements in the UR platform. Individual names can
be given to each source to help identify them more clearly for later use. For example, in the scheme shown in the above
diagram, the user configures one source to be the sum of CT1 and CT2 and can name this source as “Wdg1 I”.
Once the sources have been configured, the user has them available as selections for the choice of input signal for the pro-
tection elements and as metered quantities.
b) CT/VT MODULE CONFIGURATION

CT and VT input channels are contained in CT/VT modules. The type of input channel can be phase/neutral/other voltage,
phase/ground current, or sensitive ground current. The CT/VT modules calculate total waveform RMS levels, fundamental
frequency phasors, symmetrical components and harmonics for voltage or current, as allowed by the hardware in each
channel. These modules may calculate other parameters as directed by the CPU module.
A CT/VT module contains up to eight input channels, numbered 1 through 8. The channel numbering corresponds to the
module terminal numbering 1 through 8 and is arranged as follows: Channels 1, 2, 3 and 4 are always provided as a group,
hereafter called a “bank,” and all four are either current or voltage, as are channels 5, 6, 7 and 8. Channels 1, 2, 3 and 5, 6,
7 are arranged as phase A, B and C respectively. Channels 4 and 8 are either another current or voltage.
Banks are ordered sequentially from the block of lower-numbered channels to the block of higher-numbered channels, and
from the CT/VT module with the lowest slot position letter to the module with the highest slot position letter, as follows:
The UR platform allows for a maximum of three sets of three-phase voltages and six sets of three-phase currents. The
result of these restrictions leads to the maximum number of CT/VT modules in a chassis to three. The maximum number of
sources is six. A summary of CT/VT module configurations is shown below.
ITEM MAXIMUM NUMBER
CT/VT Module 2
CT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 ground channel) 8
VT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 auxiliary channel) 4

c) CT/VT INPUT CHANNEL CONFIGURATION

Upon relay startup, configuration settings for every bank of current or voltage input channels in the relay are automatically
generated from the order code. Within each bank, a channel identification label is automatically assigned to each bank of
channels in a given product. The bank naming convention is based on the physical location of the channels, required by the
user to know how to connect the relay to external circuits. Bank identification consists of the letter designation of the slot in
which the CT/VT module is mounted as the first character, followed by numbers indicating the channel, either 1 or 5.
For three-phase channel sets, the number of the lowest numbered channel identifies the set. For example, F1 represents
the three-phase channel set of F1/F2/F3, where F is the slot letter and 1 is the first channel of the set of three channels.
Upon startup, the CPU configures the settings required to characterize the current and voltage inputs, and will display them
in the appropriate section in the sequence of the banks (as described above) as follows for a maximum configuration: F1,
F5, L1, L5, S1, and S5.
The above section explains how the input channels are identified and configured to the specific application instrument
transformers and the connections of these transformers. The specific parameters to be used by each measuring element
and comparator, and some actual values are controlled by selecting a specific source. The source is a group of current and
voltage input channels selected by the user to facilitate this selection. With this mechanism, a user does not have to make
multiple selections of voltage and current for those elements that need both parameters, such as a distance element or a
watt calculation. It also gathers associated parameters for display purposes.
The basic idea of arranging a source is to select a point on the power system where information is of interest. An applica-
tion example of the grouping of parameters in a source is a transformer winding, on which a three phase voltage is mea-
sured, and the sum of the currents from CTs on each of two breakers is required to measure the winding current flow.

The following access supervision settings are available.

• INVALID ATTEMPTS BEFORE LOCKOUT: This setting specifies the number of times an incorrect password can be
entered within a three-minute time span before lockout occurs. When lockout occurs, the LOCAL ACCESS DENIED or
REMOTE ACCESS DENIED FlexLogic operands are set to “On”. These operands are returned to the “Off” state upon
expiration of the lockout.
• PASSWORD LOCKOUT DURATION: This setting specifies the time that the L30 will lockout password access after
the number of invalid password entries specified by the INVALID ATTEMPTS BEFORE LOCKOUT setting has occurred.
The L30 provides a means to raise an alarm upon failed password entry. Should password verification fail while accessing
a password-protected level of the relay (either settings or commands), the UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS FlexLogic operand is
asserted. The operand can be programmed to raise an alarm via contact outputs or communications. This feature can be
used to protect against both unauthorized and accidental access attempts.

The UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS operand is reset with the COMMANDS  CLEAR RECORDS  RESET UNAUTHORIZED

The dual permission security access feature provides a mechanism for customers to prevent unauthorized or unintended
upload of settings to a relay through the local or remote interfaces interface.
The following settings are available through the local (front panel) interface only.
• LOCAL SETTING AUTH: This setting is used for local (front panel or RS232 interface) setting access supervision.
Valid values for the FlexLogic operands are either “On” (default) or any physical “Contact Input ~~ On” value.
If this setting is “On“, then local setting access functions as normal; that is, a local setting password is required. If this
setting is any contact input on FlexLogic operand, then the operand must be asserted (set as on) prior to providing the
local setting password to gain setting access.
If setting access is not authorized for local operation (front panel or RS232 interface) and the user attempts to obtain
setting access, then the UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS message is displayed on the front panel.
• REMOTE SETTING AUTH: This setting is used for remote (Ethernet or RS485 interfaces) setting access supervision.
If this setting is “On” (the default setting), then remote setting access functions as normal; that is, a remote password is
required). If this setting is “Off”, then remote setting access is blocked even if the correct remote setting password is
provided. If this setting is any other FlexLogic operand, then the operand must be asserted (set as on) prior to provid-
ing the remote setting password to gain setting access.
• ACCESS AUTH TIMEOUT: This setting represents the timeout delay for local setting access. This setting is applicable
when the LOCAL SETTING AUTH setting is programmed to any operand except “On”. The state of the FlexLogic operand
is continuously monitored for an off-to-on transition. When this occurs, local access is permitted and the timer pro-
grammed with the ACCESS AUTH TIMEOUT setting value is started. When this timer expires, local setting access is
immediately denied. If access is permitted and an off-to-on transition of the FlexLogic operand is detected, the timeout
is restarted. The status of this timer is updated every 5 seconds.

The following settings are available through the remote (EnerVista UR Setup) interface only. Select the Settings > Product
Setup > Security menu item to display the security settings window.
The Remote Settings Authorized setting is used for remote (Ethernet or RS485 interfaces) setting access supervision. If
this setting is “On” (the default setting), then remote setting access functions as normal; that is, a remote password is
required). If this setting is “Off”, then remote setting access is blocked even if the correct remote setting password is pro-
vided. If this setting is any other FlexLogic operand, then the operand must be asserted (set as on) prior to providing the
5 remote setting password to gain setting access.

The Access Authorized Timeout setting represents the timeout delay remote setting access. This setting is applicable
when the Remote Settings Authorized setting is programmed to any operand except “On” or “Off”. The state of the Flex-
Logic operand is continuously monitored for an off-to-on transition. When this occurs, remote setting access is permitted
and the timer programmed with the Access Authorized Timeout setting value is started. When this timer expires, remote
setting access is immediately denied. If access is permitted and an off-to-on transition of the FlexLogic operand is detected,
the timeout is restarted. The status of this timer is updated every 5 seconds.
e) ENERVISTA SECURITY
ENABLING THE SECURITY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The EnerVista security system allows an administrator to manage access privileges of multiple users to the EnerVista appli-
cation.
It is disabled by default to allow the administrator direct access to the EnerVista software immediately after installation.
When security is disabled, all users have administrator access. GE recommends enabling the EnerVista security before
placing the device in service.
To enable the security system and require password use:

1. Select the Security > User Management menu item to open the user management window.
2. Check the Enable Security box in the lower-left corner to enable the security management system.
Security is now enabled for the EnerVista UR Setup software. Upon starting the software, users are now required to enter a
username and password.
ADDING A NEW USER
The following pre-requisites are required to add user accounts to the EnerVista security management system: 5
• The user adding the account must have administrator rights
• The EnerVista security management system must be enabled (previous section)
To add user accounts:
1. Select the Security > User Management menu item to open the user management window.
2. Enter a username in the User field. The username must be 4 to 20 characters in length.
3. Select the user access rights by enabling the check box of one or more of the fields.

f) CYBERSENTRY SECURITY
The EnerVista software provides the means to configure and authenticate UR using either device or server authentication.
The access to various pieces of functionality depends on user role.
The login screen of EnerVista has two options for access to the UR, server and device authentication.
When the "Device" button is selected, the UR uses its local authentication database and not the RADIUS server to authen-
ticate the user. In this case, it uses built-in roles (Administrator, Engineer, Supervisor, Observer, Operator) as login
accounts and the associated passwords are stored on the UR device. In this case, access is not user-attributable. In cases
where user-attributable access is required, especially for auditable processes for compliance reasons, use server authenti-
cation (RADIUS) only.
When the "Server" Authentication Type option is selected, the UR uses the RADIUS server and not its local authentication
database to authenticate the user.
5
No password or security information is displayed in plain text by the EnerVista software or UR device, nor are they ever
transmitted without cryptographic protection.

Login: This setting is applicable for Device Authentication only. This setting allows a user to login with a specific role, see
descriptions below. For the Supervisor role, the “Supervisor Role” setting should be enabled.
Whenever a new role is logged in, the user is prompted with a display to enter a password. Passwords must obey the
requirements specified the Password Requirements section in chapter 8.The UR device supports five roles. All roles have
their corresponding passwords. The Observer role is the only role that does not require a password.
The roles are defined as follows:
• Administrator: Complete read and write access to all settings and commands. This role does not allow concurrent
access. This role has an operand to indicate when it is logged on.
• Engineer: Complete read and write access to all settings and commands with the exception of configuring Security set-
tings and Firmware upgrades. This role does not allow concurrent access.
• Operator: The Operator has read/write access to all settings under the command menu/section. This role does not
exist offline.
• Supervisor: This is only an approving role. This role’s authentication commits setting changes submitted by Administra-
tor or Engineer. The Supervisor role authenticates to unlock the UR relay for setting changes and not approve changes
after the fact. Only Supervisor can set the Settings and Firmware Lock in the Security Settings. This role also has the
ability to forcefully logoff any other role and clear the security event log. This role can also be disabled, but only
through a Supervisor authentication. When this role is disabled its permissions are assigned to the Administrator role.

• Observer: This role has read only access to all UR settings. This role allows unlimited concurrent access but it has no
download access to any files on the device. Observer is the default role if no authentication has been done to the
device. This role displays as "None" on the front panel.
The Factory service role is not available and is intended for factory use only.

The Supervisory menu settings are available for Supervisor role only or if the Supervisor role is disabled then for the
Administrator role only.
Device Authentication: This setting is enabled by default, meaning "Yes" is selected. When enabled, Device Authentica-
tion with roles is enabled. When this setting is disabled, the UR only authenticates to the AAA server (Radius). However,
the Administrator and Supervisor (when enabled) remain active even after device authentication is disabled and their only 5
permission is to re-enable device authentication. To re-enable device authentication, the Supervisor unlocks the device for
setting changes, then the Administrator re-enables device authentication.
Bypass Access: The bypass security feature provides an easier access, with no authentication and encryption for those
special situations when this is considered safe. Only the Supervisor, or the Administrator when the Supervisor role is dis-
abled, can enable this feature.

• Remote — Bypasses authentication for Ethernet
• Local and Remote — Bypasses authentication for push buttons, keypad, RS232, RS485, and Ethernet
Lock Relay: This setting uses a Boolean value (Enable/Disable) to indicate if the device accepts setting changes and
whether the device can receive a firmware upgrade. This setting can be changed only by the Supervisor role, if it is enabled
or by the Administrator if the Supervisor role is disabled. The Supervisor role enables this setting for the relay to start
accepting setting changes or command changes or firmware upgrade. After all the setting changes are applied or com-
mands executed, the Supervisor disables to lock setting changes.
Example: If this setting is "Yes" and an attempt is made to change settings or upgrade the firmware, the UR device denies
the setting changes and denies upgrading the firmware. If this setting is "No", the UR device accepts setting changes and
firmware upgrade.
This role is disabled by default.
Factory Service Mode: When enabled (i.e., "Yes" is selected) the device can go into factory service mode. For this set-
ting to become enabled a Supervisor authentication is necessary. The default value is Disabled.

Supervisor Role: When enabled (i.e., "Yes" is selected) the Supervisor role is active. When "No" is selected this role is dis-
abled. To disabled this setting a Supervisor authentication is necessary. If disabled, the Supervisor role is not allowed to log
on. In this case the Administrator can change the settings under the Supervisory menu.
If enabled, Supervisor authentication is required to change the settings in the Supervisory menu. If the Supervisor disables
his role after authentication, the Supervisor session remains valid until he switches to another role using MMI or until he
ends the current Supervisor session if using communications.
This role is disabled by default.
Serial Inactivity Timeout: The role logged via a serial port is auto logged off after the Serial Inactivity timer times out. A
separate timer is maintained for RS232 and RS485 connections. The default value is 1 minute.

CYBERSENTRY SETUP
When first using CyberSentry security, use the following procedure for set up.
1. Log in to the relay as Administrator by using the Value keys on the front panel to enter the default password
"ChangeMe1#". Note that the "Lock relay" setting needs to be disabled in the Security > Supervisory menu. When
this setting is disabled, configuration and firmware upgrade are possible. By default, this setting is disabled.
2. Enable the Supervisor role if you have a need for it.
3. Make any required changes in configuration, such as setting a valid IP address for communication over Ethernet.
4. Log out of the Administrator account by choosing None.
Next, device or server authentication can be chosen on the login screen, but the choice is available only in EnerVista. Use
device authentication to log in using the five pre-configured roles (Administrator, Supervisor, Engineer, Operator,
Observer). When using a serial connection, only device authentication is supported. When server authentication is
required, characteristics for communication with a RADIUS server must be configured. This is possible only in the EnerV-
ista software. The RADIUS server itself also must be configured. The appendix called RADIUS Server gives an example of
how to setup a simple RADIUS server. Once both the RADIUS server and the parameters for connecting UR to the server
have been configured, you can choose server authentication on the login screen of EnerVista.
The use of CyberSentry for devices communicating through an Ethernet-to-RS485 gateway is not
supported. Because these gateways do not support the secure protocols necessary to communicate
with such devices, the connection cannot be established. Use the device as a non-CyberSentry
device.

Users logged in through the front panel are not timed out and cannot be forcefully logged out by a
supervisor. Roles logged in through the front panel that do no allow multiple instances (Administrator,
Supervisor, Engineer, Operator) must switch to None (equivalent to a logout) when they are done in
order to log out.
For all user roles except Observer, only one instance can be logged in at one time, for both login by
front panel and software.
To configure server authentication:

1. In the EnerVista software, choose device authentication and log in as Administrator.
2. Configure the following RADIUS server parameters: IP address, authentication port, shared secret, and vendor ID.
3. On the RADIUS server, configure the user accounts. Do not use the five pre-defined roles as user names (Administra-
tor, Supervisor, Engineer, Operator, Observer) in the RADIUS server. If you do, the UR relay automatically provides the
authentication from the device.
4. In the EnerVista software, choose server authentication and log in using the user name and password configured on
the RADIUS server for server authentication login.
5. After making any required changes, log out.
When changing settings offline, ensure that only settings permitted by the role that performs the set-
tings download are changed because only those changes are applied.
Pushbuttons (both user-control buttons and user-programmable buttons) located on the front panel can be pressed by an
Administrator or Engineer role. This also applies to the reset button, which resets targets, where targets are errors dis-
played on the front panel or the Targets panel of the EnerVista software. The reset button has special behavior in that it
allows these two roles to press it even when they are logged in through the RS232 port and not through the front panel. 5
To reset the security event log and self-test operands:
1. Log in as Supervisor (if the role is enabled) or Administrator (if the Supervisor role is disabled) and execute a clear
security command under Commands > Security > Clear Security.

Some relay messaging characteristics can be modified to suit different situations using the display properties settings.

• LANGUAGE: This setting selects the language used to display settings, actual values, and targets. The range is
dependent on the order code of the relay.
• FLASH MESSAGE TIME: Flash messages are status, warning, error, or information messages displayed for several
seconds in response to certain key presses during setting programming. These messages override any normal mes-
sages. The duration of a flash message on the display can be changed to accommodate different reading rates.
• DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT: If the keypad is inactive for a period of time, the relay automatically reverts to a
default message. The inactivity time is modified via this setting to ensure messages remain on the screen long enough
during programming or reading of actual values.
• DEFAULT MESSAGE INTENSITY: To extend phosphor life in the vacuum fluorescent display, the brightness can be
attenuated during default message display. During keypad interrogation, the display always operates at full brightness.
• SCREEN SAVER FEATURE and SCREEN SAVER WAIT TIME: These settings are only visible if the L30 has a liquid
crystal display (LCD) and control its backlighting. When the SCREEN SAVER FEATURE is “Enabled”, the LCD backlighting
is turned off after the DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT followed by the SCREEN SAVER WAIT TIME, providing that no keys
have been pressed and no target messages are active. When a keypress occurs or a target becomes active, the LCD
backlighting is turned on.
• CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL: This setting modifies the current cut-off threshold. Very low currents (1 to 2% of the
rated value) are very susceptible to noise. Some customers prefer very low currents to display as zero, while others
prefer the current be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The L30 applies a cut-
off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured currents. If the magnitude is below the cut-off level, it is substi-
tuted with zero. This applies to phase and ground current phasors as well as true RMS values and symmetrical compo-
nents. The cut-off operation applies to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those used by
communications protocols. Note that the cut-off level for the sensitive ground input is 10 times lower that the CURRENT
CUT-OFF LEVEL setting value. Raw current samples available via oscillography are not subject to cut-off.
5 This setting does not affect the 87L metering cutoff, which is constantly at 0.02 pu.
• VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL: This setting modifies the voltage cut-off threshold. Very low secondary voltage measure-
ments (at the fractional volt level) can be affected by noise. Some customers prefer these low voltages to be displayed
as zero, while others prefer the voltage to be displayed even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual sig-
nal. The L30 applies a cut-off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured voltages. If the magnitude is below
the cut-off level, it is substituted with zero. This operation applies to phase and auxiliary voltages, and symmetrical
components. The cut-off operation applies to quantities used for metering, protection, and control, as well as those
used by communications protocols. Raw samples of the voltages available via oscillography are not subject cut-off.
The CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL and the VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL are used to determine the metered power cut-off levels. The
power cut-off level is calculated as shown below. For Delta connections:
3  CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL  VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL  VT primary  CT primary-

3-phase power cut-off = ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (EQ 5.3)
VT secondary
For Wye connections:
 CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL  VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL  VT primary  CT primary-
3-phase power cut-off = 3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (EQ 5.4)
VT secondary
CUT-OFF LEVEL  VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL  VT primary  CT primary
per-phase power cut-off = CURRENT
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- (EQ 5.5)
VT secondary
where VT primary = VT secondary  VT ratio and CT primary = CT secondary  CT ratio.
For example, given the following settings:
CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL: “0.02 pu”
VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL: “1.0 V”
PHASE CT PRIMARY: “100 A”
PHASE VT SECONDARY: “66.4 V”
PHASE VT RATIO: “208.00 : 1"
PHASE VT CONNECTION: “Delta”.

We have:
CT primary = “100 A”, and
VT primary = PHASE VT SECONDARY x PHASE VT RATIO = 66.4 V x 208 = 13811.2 V
The power cut-off is therefore:
power cut-off = (CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL  VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL  CT primary  VT primary)/VT secondary
= ( 3  0.02 pu  1.0 V  100 A  13811.2 V) / 66.4 V
= 720.5 watts
Any calculated power value below this cut-off will not be displayed. As well, the three-phase energy data will not accumu-
late if the total power from all three phases does not exceed the power cut-off.
Lower the VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL and CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL with care as the relay accepts lower sig-
nals as valid measurements. Unless dictated otherwise by a specific application, the default settings of “0.02 pu” for
NOTE
CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL and “1.0 V” for VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL are recommended.

Selected records can be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic operands. Assigning user-programma-
ble pushbuttons to clear specific records are typical applications for these commands. Since the L30 responds to rising
edges of the configured FlexLogic operands, they must be asserted for at least 50 ms to take effect.
Clearing records with user-programmable operands is not protected by the command password. However, user-program-
mable pushbuttons are protected by the command password. Thus, if they are used to clear records, the user-programma-
ble pushbuttons can provide extra security if required.
For example, to assign user-programmable pushbutton 1 to clear demand records, the following settings should be applied.
1. Assign the clear demand function to pushbutton 1 by making the following change in the SETTINGS  PRODUCT SETUP

The L30 is equipped with up to two independent serial communication ports. The faceplate RS232 port is intended for local
use and is fixed at 19200 baud and no parity. The rear COM2 port is RS485. The RS485 port has settings for baud rate and
parity. It is important that these parameters agree with the settings used on the computer or other equipment that is con-
nected to these ports. Any of these ports can be connected to a computer running EnerVista UR Setup. This software can
download and upload setting files, view measured parameters, and upgrade the relay firmware. A maximum of 32 relays
can be daisy-chained and connected to a DCS, PLC, or computer using the RS485 ports.
For the RS485 port, the minimum time before the port transmits after receiving data from a host can be set. This
feature allows operation with hosts which hold the RS485 transmitter active for some time after each transmission.
NOTE
c) ETHERNET NETWORK TOPOLOGY

When using more than one Ethernet port, configure each to belong to a different network or subnet using the IP addresses
and mask, else communication becomes unpredictable when more than one port is configured to the same subnet.

Example 1
IP1/Mask1: 10.1.1.2/255.255.255.0 (where LAN 1 is 10.1.1.x/255.255.255.0)
IP2/Mask2: 10.2.1.2/255.255.255.0 (where LAN2 is 10.2.1.x/255.255.255.0)
IP3/Mask3: 10.3.1.2/255.255.255.0 (where LAN3 is 10.3.1.x/255.255.255.0)
Example 2
IP1/Mask1: 10.1.1.2/255.0.0.0 (where LAN1 is 10.x.x.x/255.0.0.0)
Example 3 — Incorrect
IP1/Mask1: 10.1.1.2/255.0.0.0
IP2/Mask2: 10.2.1.2/255.0.0.0
IP3/Mask3: 10.3.1.2/255.0.0.0
This example is incorrect because the mask of 255.0.0.0 used for the three IP addresses makes them belong to the same
network of 10.x.x.x.
Single LAN, No Redundancy
The topology shown in the following figure allows communications to SCADA, local configuration/monitoring through
EnerVista, and access to the public network shared on the same LAN. No redundancy is provided.

Multiple LANS, with Redundancy

The topology in the following figure provides local configuration/monitoring through EnerVista software and access to the

tions to SCADA is provided through LAN2 and LAN3, to which P2 and respectively P3 are connected and configured to
work in redundant mode. In this configuration, P3 uses the IP and MAC address of P2.

The IP addresses are used with the DNP, Modbus/TCP, IEC 61580, IEC 60870-5-104, TFTP, HTTP, and PRP protocols.
The next section explains PRP.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.
NOTE
PRT1 (2 OR 3) IP ADDRESS: This setting sets the ports IPv4 address in standard IPV4 format. This setting is valid on port 3 if
port 2 REDUNDANCY is set to None.
PRT1 (2 OR 3) SUBNET MASK: This setting sets the ports IPv4 subnet mask in standard IPV4 format. This setting is valid on
port 3 if port 2 REDUNDANCY is set to None.
PRT2 REDUNDANCY is available when the hardware has multiple ports (modules T, U, and V). It determines if ports 2 and 3
operate in redundant or independent mode. If a license for PRP was purchased, the options are None, Failover, and PRP.
If a license for PRP was not purchased, the available options are None and Failover. In non-redundant mode (REDUNDANCY
set to None), ports 2 and 3 operate independently with their own MAC, IP, and mask addresses. If REDUNDANCY is set to
Failover, the operation of ports 2 and 3 is as follows:
• Ports 2 and 3 use the port 2 MAC address, IP address, and mask
• The configuration fields for IP address and mask on port 3 are hidden

• Port 3 is in standby mode and does not actively communicate on the Ethernet network but monitors its link to the Mul-
tilink switch. If port 2 detects a problem with the link, communications is switched to Port 3. Port 3 is, in effect, acting as
a redundant or backup link to the network for port 2. Once Port 2 detects that the link between port 2 and the switch is
good, communications automatically switch back to port 2 and port 3 goes back into standby mode.
If REDUNDANCY is set to PRP, the operation of ports 2 and 3 is as follows:
• Ports 2 and 3 use the port 2 MAC address, IP address, and mask
• The configuration fields for IP address and mask on port 3 are overwritten with those from port 2. This is visible on the
front panel but not displayed in the EnerVista software.
• Port 2 MCST ADDRESS field is visible
• The port 2 PTP function still uses only port 2 and the port 3 PTP function still uses only port 3. The relay still synchro-
nizes to whichever port has the best master. When ports 2 and 3 see the same master, as is typically the case for PRP
networks, the port with the better connectivity is used.
The two ports must be connected to completely independent LANS with no single point of failure, such as common
power supplies that feed switches on both LANS.
NOTE
For this setting change to take effect, restart the unit.

PRT2 PRP MCST ADDR: This setting allows the user to change the multicast address used by the PRP supervision frames.
The setting applies to UR CPUs that support multiple ports (T, U, and V). This setting is available if the hardware has multi-
ple ports and REDUNDANCY is set to PRP.
e) PARALLEL REDUNDANCY PROTOCOL (PRP)
5 The Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) defines a redundancy protocol for high availability in substation automation net-
works. It applies to networks based on Ethernet technology (ISO/IEC 8802-3) and is based on the second edition (July
2012) of the IEC 62439-3, clause 4.
PRP is designed to provide seamless recovery in case of a single failure in the network, by using a combination of LAN
duplication and frame duplication technique. Identical frames are sent on two completely independent networks that con-
nect source and destination. Under normal circumstances both frames reach the destination and one of them is sent up the
OSI stack to the destination application, while the second one is discarded. If an error occurs in one of the networks and
traffic is prevented from flowing on that path, connectivity is still provided through the other network to ensure continuous
communication. Take care when designing the two LANs, so that no single point of failure (such as a common power sup-
ply) is encountered, as such scenarios can bring down both LANs simultaneously.
Figure 5–7: EXAMPLE OF PARALLEL REDUNDANT NETWORK
PRP uses specialized nodes called doubly attached nodes (DANPs) for handling the duplicated frames. DANPs devices
have an additional module, called Link Redundancy Entity (LRE). LRE is responsible for duplicating frames and adding the
specific PRP trailer when sending the frames out on the LAN, as well as making decisions on received frames as to which
one is sent up the OSI stack to the application layer and which one is discarded. LRE is responsible for making PRP trans-
parent to the higher layers of the stack. There is a second type of specialized device used in PRP networks, called RedBox,
with the role of connecting Single Attached Nodes (SANs) to a redundant network.
UR relays implement only the DANP functionality. The RedBox functionality is not implemented.

The original standard IEC 62439-3 (2010) was amended to align PRP with the High-availability Seamless Redundancy
(HSR) protocol. To achieve this, the original PRP was modified at the cost of losing compatibility with the PRP 2010 ver-
sion. The revised standard IEC 62439-3 (2012) is commonly referred to as PRP-1, while the original standard is PRP-0.
The UR relays support only PRP-1.
The relay implements PRP on two of its Ethernet ports, specifically Port 2 and 3 of the CPU module. Use the previous sec-
tion (network port configuration) to configure PRP.
PRP is purchased as a separate option. If purchased (valid order code), PRP can be enabled in configuration through a
setting available on the network configuration menu, REDUNDANCY, which already has the capability of enabling failover
redundancy. The options on this setting must be changed to accommodate two types of redundancy: failover and PRP.
When REDUNDANCY is set to either failover or PRP, the ports dedicated for PRP (Port 2 and 3) operate in redundant
mode. In this mode, Port 3 uses the Mac, IP address, and mask of Port 2.

ADDING AND DELETING STATIC ROUTES
Host routes are not supported at present.
The routing table configuration is available on the serial port and front panel. This is a deliberate decision, to avoid loss of
connectivity when remotely configuring the UR.
By default the value of the destination field is 127.0.0.1 for all static routes (1 to 6). This is equivalent to saying that the
static routes are not configured. When the destination address is 127.0.0.1, the mask and gateway must be also kept on
default values.
By default, the value of the route gateway address is 127.0.0.1. This means the default route is not configured.
To add a route:
1. Use any of the static network route entries numbered 1 to 6 to configure a static network route. Once a route destina-
tion is configured for any of the entries 1 to 6, that entry becomes a static route and it must meet all the rules listed in
the next section, General Conditions to be Satisfied by Static Routes.

2. To configure the default route, enter a default gateway address. Once a default gateway address is configured, it must
be validated against condition 2 of the General Conditions to be Satisfied by Static Routes.
To delete a route:
1. Replace the route destination with the default loopback address (127.0.0.1). When deleting a route, the mask and
gateway must be also brought back to default values.
2. Delete the default route by replacing the default gateway with the default value 127.0.0.1.
GENERAL CONDITIONS TO BE SATISFIED BY STATIC ROUTES
The following rules are validated internally:
• The route mask has IP mask format. In binary this needs to be a set of contiguous bits of 1 from left to right, followed
by one or more contiguous bits of 0.
• The route destination and mask must match. This can be verified by checking that
RtDestination and RtMask = RtDestination
Example of good configuration: RtDestination = 10.1.1.0; Rt Mask = 255.255.255.0
Example of bad configuration: RtDestination = 10.1.1.1; Rt Mask = 255.255.255.0
The following rules must be observed when you configure static routes:
• The route destination must not be a connected network
• The route gateway must be on a connected network. This rule applies to the gateway address of the default route as
well. This can be verified by checking that:
RtGwy and Prt1Mask = Prt1IP and Prt1Mask || RtGwy and Prt2Mask = Prt2IP and Prt2Mask || RtGwy and Prt3Mask =
Prt3IP and Prt3Mask
ROUTING BEHAVIOR COMPARED TO PREVIOUS RELEASES
5 Prior to release 7.10, the UR did not have an explicit manner of configuring routes. The only available route was the default
route configured as part of the network settings (port gateway IP address). This limited the ability to route to specific desti-
nations, particularly if these destinations were reachable through a different interface than the one on which the default
gateway was.
Starting with UR 7.10, up to six static network routes can be configured in addition to a default route. The default route con-
figuration was also moved from the network settings into the routing section.
The figure shows an example of topology that benefits from the addition of static routes.
Figure 5–8: USING STATIC ROUTES
In the figure, the UR connects through the following two Ethernet ports:
• Port 1 (IP address 10.1.1.2) connects the UR to LAN 10.1.1.0/24 and to the Internet through Router1. Router 1 has an
interface on 10.1.1.0/24 and the IP address of this interface is 10.1.1.1.

• Port 2 (IP address 10.1.2.2) connects the UR to LAN 10.1.2.0/24 and to the EnerVista software through Router 2.
Router 2 has an interface on 10.1.2.0/24 and the IP address of this interface is 10.1.2.1.
The configuration before release 7.10 was as follows:
• PRT1 IP ADDRESS = 10.1.1.2
PRT1 SUBNET IP MASK = 255.255.255.0
PRT1 GWY IP ADDRESS = 10.1.1.1
PRT2 IP ADDRESS = 10.1.2.2
The behavior before release 7.10 was as follows. When sending packets to EnerVista, the UR noticed that the destination
was not on a connected network and it tried to find a route to destination. Since the default route was the only route it knew,
it used it. Yet EnerVista was on a private network, which was not reachable through Router 1. Hence a destination unreach-
able message was received from the router.
The configuration starting release 7.10 is as follows:
• PRT1 IP ADDRESS = 10.1.1.2
PRT2 IP ADDRESS = 10.1.2.2
IPV4 DEFAULT ROUTE: GATEWAY ADDRESS = 10.1.1.1
STATIC NETWORK ROUTE 1: RT1 DESTINATION = 10.1.3.0/24; RT1 NET MASK = 255.255.255.0; and RT1 GATE-
WAY = 10.1.2.1
The behavior since release 7.10 is as follows. There is one added static network route to the destination 10.1.3.0/24, where
a laptop running EnerVista is located. This static route uses a different gateway (10.1.2.1) than the default route. This gate-
way is the address of Router 2, which has knowledge about 10.1.3.0 and is able to route packets coming from UR and des-
tined to EnerVista. 5

The serial communication ports utilize the Modbus protocol, unless configured for DNP operation (see descriptions below).
This allows the EnerVista UR Setup software to be used. The UR operates as a Modbus slave device only. When using
Modbus protocol on the RS232 port, the L30 responds regardless of the MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS programmed. For the
RS485 port, each L30 must have a unique address from 1 to 254. Address 0 is the broadcast address which all Modbus
slave devices listen to. Addresses do not have to be sequential, but no two devices can have the same address or conflicts
resulting in errors will occur. Generally, each device added to the link should use the next higher address starting at 1. See
Appendix B for more information on the Modbus protocol.
A value of 0 closes the port. When the Modbus port is set to 0, communicate with the relay using the front panel or serial
port.
When a 0 value is involved in a change, the changes to the MODBUS TCP PORT NUMBER setting take effect
when the L30 is restarted.

The L30 supports the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) version 3.0. The L30 can be used as a DNP slave device con-
nected to multiple DNP masters (usually an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the L30 maintains two sets of DNP
data change buffers and connection information, two DNP masters can actively communicate with the L30 at one time.
The IEC 60870-5-104 and DNP protocols cannot be used simultaneously. When the IEC 60870-5-104 FUNCTION
setting is set to “Enabled”, the DNP protocol is not operational. When this setting is changed it does not become
NOTE
active until power to the relay has been cycled (off-to-on).

The DNP CHANNEL 1 PORT and DNP CHANNEL 2 PORT settings select the communications port assigned to the DNP protocol
for each channel. Once DNP is assigned to a serial port, the Modbus protocol is disabled on that port. When this setting is
set to “Network - TCP”, the DNP protocol can be used over TCP/IP on channels 1 or 2. When this value is set to “Network -
UDP”, the DNP protocol can be used over UDP/IP on channel 1 only. Refer to Appendix E for additional information on the
DNP protocol.
Changes to the DNP CHANNEL 1 PORT and DNP CHANNEL 2 PORT settings take effect only after power has
been cycled to the relay.

The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE FUNCTION should be “Disabled” for RS485 applications since there is no collision avoidance
mechanism. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE TIMEOUT sets the time the L30 waits for a DNP master to confirm an unsolicited
response. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE MAX RETRIES setting determines the number of times the L30 retransmits an unsolic-
ited response without receiving confirmation from the master; a value of “255” allows infinite re-tries. The DNP UNSOL
RESPONSE DEST ADDRESS is the DNP address to which all unsolicited responses are sent. The IP address to which unsolic-
ited responses are sent is determined by the L30 from the current TCP connection or the most recent UDP message.
The DNP scale factor settings are numbers used to scale analog input point values. These settings group the L30 analog
input data into the following types: current, voltage, power, energy, power factor, and other. Each setting represents the
scale factor for all analog input points of that type. For example, if the DNP VOLTAGE SCALE FACTOR setting is set to “1000”,
all DNP analog input points that are voltages will be returned with values 1000 times smaller (for example, a value of 72000
V on the L30 will be returned as 72). These settings are useful when analog input values must be adjusted to fit within cer-
tain ranges in DNP masters. Note that a scale factor of 0.1 is equivalent to a multiplier of 10 (that is, the value will be 10
times larger).
The DNP DEFAULT DEADBAND settings determine when to trigger unsolicited responses containing analog input data. These
settings group the L30 analog input data into the following types: current, voltage, power, energy, power factor, and other.
Each setting represents the default deadband value for all analog input points of that type. For example, to trigger unsolic-
ited responses from the L30 when any current values change by 15 A, the DNP CURRENT DEFAULT DEADBAND setting should
be set to “15”. Note that these settings are the deadband default values. DNP object 34 points can be used to change dead-
band values, from the default, for each individual DNP analog input point. Whenever power is removed and re-applied to
the L30, the default deadbands will be in effect.
The L30 relay does not support energy metering. As such, the DNP ENERGY SCALE FACTOR and DNP ENERGY
DEFAULT DEADBAND settings are not applicable.
NOTE

The DNP TIME SYNC IIN PERIOD setting determines how often the Need Time Internal Indication (IIN) bit is set by the L30.
Changing this time allows the DNP master to send time synchronization commands more or less often, as required.
The DNP MESSAGE FRAGMENT SIZE setting determines the size, in bytes, at which message fragmentation occurs. Large
fragment sizes allow for more efficient throughput; smaller fragment sizes cause more application layer confirmations to be
necessary which can provide for more robust data transfer over noisy communication channels.
When the DNP data points (analog inputs and/or binary inputs) are configured for Ethernet-enabled relays, check
the “DNP Points Lists” L30 web page to view the points lists. This page can be viewed with a web browser by enter-
NOTE
ing the L30 IP address to access the L30 “Main Menu”, then by selecting the “Device Information Menu” > “DNP
Points Lists” menu item.
The DNP OBJECT 1 DEFAULT VARIATION to DNP OBJECT 32 DEFAULT VARIATION settings allow the user to select the DNP
default variation number for object types 1, 2, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, and 32. The default variation refers to the variation
response when variation 0 is requested and/or in class 0, 1, 2, or 3 scans. Refer to the DNP implementation section in
appendix E for additional details.
The DNP binary outputs typically map one-to-one to IED data points. That is, each DNP binary output controls a single
physical or virtual control point in an IED. In the L30 relay, DNP binary outputs are mapped to virtual inputs. However, some
legacy DNP implementations use a mapping of one DNP binary output to two physical or virtual control points to support
the concept of trip/close (for circuit breakers) or raise/lower (for tap changers) using a single control point. That is, the DNP
master can operate a single point for both trip and close, or raise and lower, operations. The L30 can be configured to sup-
port paired control points, with each paired control point operating two virtual inputs. The DNP NUMBER OF PAIRED CONTROL
POINTS setting allows configuration of from 0 to 32 binary output paired controls. Points not configured as paired operate on
a one-to-one basis.
The DNP ADDRESS setting is the DNP slave address. This number identifies the L30 on a DNP communications link. Each
DNP slave should be assigned a unique address.
The DNP TCP CONNECTION TIMEOUT setting specifies a time delay for the detection of dead network TCP connections. If 5
there is no data traffic on a DNP TCP connection for greater than the time specified by this setting, the connection will be
aborted by the L30. This frees up the connection to be re-used by a client.
Relay power must be re-cycled after changing the DNP TCP CONNECTION TIMEOUT setting for the changes to take
effect.

was represented by the RELAY NAME setting.
The DESTINATION MAC setting allows the destination Ethernet MAC address to be set. This address must be a multicast
address; the least significant bit of the first byte must be set. In L30 releases previous to 5.0x, the destination Ethernet MAC
address was determined automatically by taking the sending MAC address (that is, the unique, local MAC address of the
L30) and setting the multicast bit.
The GOOSE VLAN PRIORITY setting indicates the Ethernet priority of GOOSE messages. This allows GOOSE messages to
have higher priority than other Ethernet data. The GOOSE ETYPE APPID setting allows the selection of a specific application
ID for each GOOSE sending device. This value can be left at its default if the feature is not required. Both the GOOSE VLAN

The configurable GOOSE settings allow the L30 to be configured to transmit a number of different datasets within IEC
61850 GOOSE messages. Up to eight different configurable datasets can be configured and transmitted. This is useful for
intercommunication between L30 IEDs and devices from other manufacturers that support IEC 61850.
The configurable GOOSE feature allows for the configuration of the datasets to be transmitted or received from the L30.
The L30 supports the configuration of eight (8) transmission and reception datasets, allowing for the optimization of data
transfer between devices.
Items programmed for dataset 1 and 2 will have changes in their status transmitted as soon as the change is detected.
Datasets 1 and 2 should be used for high-speed transmission of data that is required for applications such as transfer trip-
ping, blocking, and breaker fail initiate. At least one digital status value needs to be configured in the required dataset to
enable transmission of configured data. Configuring analog data only to dataset 1 or 2 will not activate transmission.
Items programmed for datasets 3 through 8 will have changes in their status transmitted at a maximum rate of every
100 ms. Datasets 3 through 8 will regularly analyze each data item configured within them every 100 ms to identify if any
changes have been made. If any changes in the data items are detected, these changes will be transmitted through a
GOOSE message. If there are no changes detected during this 100 ms period, no GOOSE message will be sent.
For all datasets 1 through 8, the integrity GOOSE message will still continue to be sent at the pre-configured rate even if no
changes in the data items are detected.
The GOOSE functionality was enhanced to prevent the relay from flooding a communications network with GOOSE mes-
sages due to an oscillation being created that is triggering a message.
The L30 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be
caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station
components. If erroneously oscillation is detected, the L30 will stop sending GOOSE messages from the dataset for a min-
imum period of one second. Should the oscillation persist after the one second time-out period, the L30 will continue to
block transmission of the dataset. The L30 will assert the MAINTENANCE ALERT: GGIO Ind XXX oscill self-test error mes-
sage on the front panel display, where XXX denotes the data item detected as oscillating.
For versions 5.70 and higher, the L30 supports four retransmission schemes: aggressive, medium, relaxed, and heartbeat.
The aggressive scheme is only supported in fast type 1A GOOSE messages (GOOSEOut 1 and GOOSEOut 2). For slow
GOOSE messages (GOOSEOut 3 to GOOSEOut 8) the aggressive scheme is the same as the medium scheme.

The details about each scheme are shown in the following table.

The configurable GOOSE feature is recommended for applications that require GOOSE data transfer between UR-series
IEDs and devices from other manufacturers. Fixed GOOSE is recommended for applications that require GOOSE data
transfer between UR-series IEDs.
IEC 61850 GOOSE messaging contains a number of configurable parameters, all of which must be correct to achieve the
successful transfer of data. It is critical that the configured datasets at the transmission and reception devices are an exact
match in terms of data structure, and that the GOOSE addresses and name strings match exactly. Manual configuration is
possible, but third-party substation configuration software may be used to automate the process. The EnerVista UR Setup
software can produce IEC 61850 ICD files and import IEC 61850 SCD files produced by a substation configurator (refer to
the IEC 61850 IED configuration section later in this appendix).
The following example illustrates the configuration required to transfer IEC 61850 data items between two devices. The
general steps required for transmission configuration are:
1. Configure the transmission dataset.
2. Configure the GOOSE service settings.
3. Configure the data.
The general steps required for reception configuration are:
1. Configure the reception dataset.

This example shows how to configure the transmission and reception of three IEC 61850 data items: a single point status
value, its associated quality flags, and a floating point analog value.
The following procedure illustrates the transmission configuration.
1. Configure the transmission dataset by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION 
IEC 61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  TRANSMISSION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGURABLE
GOOSE 1  CONFIG GSE 1 DATASET ITEMS settings menu:
– Set ITEM 1 to “GGIO1.ST.Ind1.q” to indicate quality flags for GGIO1 status indication 1.
– Set ITEM 2 to “GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal” to indicate the status value for GGIO1 status indication 1.
– Set ITEM 3 to “MMXU1.MX.Hz.mag.f” to indicate the analog frequency magnitude for MMXU1 (the metered fre-
quency for SRC1).
The transmission dataset now contains a quality flag, a single point status Boolean value, and a floating point analog
value. The reception dataset on the receiving device must exactly match this structure.
2. Configure the GOOSE service settings by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION
 IEC 61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  TRANSMISSION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGU-
RABLE GOOSE 1 settings menu:
– Set CONFIG GSE 1 FUNCTION to “Enabled”.

– Set CONFIG GSE 1 ID to an appropriate descriptive string (the default value is “GOOSEOut_1”).
– Set CONFIG GSE 1 DST MAC to a multicast address (for example, 01 00 00 12 34 56).
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 VLAN PRIORITY; the default value of “4” is OK for this example.
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 VLAN ID value; the default value is “0”, but some switches may require this value to be “1”.
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 ETYPE APPID value. This setting represents the ETHERTYPE application ID and must match 5
the configuration on the receiver (the default value is “0”).
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 CONFREV value. This value changes automatically as described in IEC 61850 part 7-2. For
this example it can be left at its default value.
3. Configure the data by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION  IEC 61850 PROTO-
COL  GGIO1 STATUS CONFIGURATION settings menu:
– Set GGIO1 INDICATION 1 to a FlexLogic operand used to provide the status of GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal (for example, a
contact input, virtual input, a protection element status, etc.).
4. Configure the MMXU1 Hz Deadband by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION 
IEC 61850 PROTOCOL  MMXU DEADBANDS MMXU1 DEADBANDS settings menu:
– Set MMXU1 HZ DEADBAND to “0.050%”. This will result in an update to the MMXU1.MX.mag.f analog value with a
change greater than 45 mHz, from the previous MMXU1.MX.mag.f value, in the source frequency.
The L30 must be rebooted (control power removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect.
The following procedure illustrates the reception configuration.
1. Configure the reception dataset by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION  IEC
61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  RECEPTION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE
1  CONFIG GSE 1 DATASET ITEMS settings menu:
– Set ITEM 3 to “GGIO3.MX.AnIn1.mag.f” to indicate the analog magnitude for GGIO3 analog input 1.
The reception dataset now contains a quality flag, a single point status Boolean value, and a floating point analog
value. This matches the transmission dataset configuration above.
2. Configure the GOOSE service settings by making the following changes in the INPUTS/OUTPUTS  REMOTE DEVICES
 REMOTE DEVICE 1 settings menu:
– Set REMOTE DEVICE 1 ID to match the GOOSE ID string for the transmitting device. Enter “GOOSEOut_1”.

– Set REMOTE DEVICE 1 ETYPE APPID to match the ETHERTYPE application ID from the transmitting device. This is
“0” in the example above.
– Set the REMOTE DEVICE 1 DATASET value. This value represents the dataset number in use. Since we are using
configurable GOOSE 1 in this example, program this value as “GOOSEIn 1”.
3. Configure the Boolean data by making the following changes in the INPUTS/OUTPUTS  REMOTE INPUTS  REMOTE
INPUT 1settings menu:
– Set REMOTE IN 1 DEVICE to “GOOSEOut_1”.
– Set REMOTE IN 1 ITEM to “Dataset Item 2”. This assigns the value of the GGIO3.ST.Ind1.stVal single point status
item to remote input 1.
4. Configure the analog data by making the following changes in the INPUTS/OUTPUTS  IEC 61850 GOOSE ANALOG
INPUTS settings menu:
– Set the IEC61850 GOOSE ANALOG INPUT 1 DEFAULT VALUE to “60.000”.
– Enter “Hz” for the IEC61850 GOOSE ANALOG INPUT 1 UNITS setting.
The GOOSE analog input 1 can now be used as a FlexAnalog value in a FlexElement or in other settings. The L30 must be
rebooted (control power removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect.
The value of GOOSE analog input 1 in the receiving device will be determined by the MMXU1.MX.Hz.mag.f value in the
sending device. This MMXU value is determined by the source 1 frequency value and the MMXU Hz deadband setting of
the sending device.
Remote input 1 can now be used in FlexLogic equations or other settings. The L30 must be rebooted (control power
removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect.
The value of remote input 1 (Boolean on or off) in the receiving device will be determined by the GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal value
5 in the sending device. The above settings will be automatically populated by the EnerVista UR Setup software when a com-
plete SCD file is created by third party substation configurator software.
For intercommunication between L30 IEDs, the fixed (DNA/UserSt) dataset can be used. The DNA/UserSt dataset contains
the same DNA and UserSt bit pairs that are included in GSSE messages. All GOOSE messages transmitted by the L30
(DNA/UserSt dataset and configurable datasets) use the IEC 61850 GOOSE messaging services (for example, VLAN sup-
port).
Set the CONFIG GSE 1 FUNCTION function to “Disabled” when configuration changes are required. Once changes are
entered, return the CONFIG GSE 1 FUNCTION to “Enabled” and restart the unit for changes to take effect.

To create a configurable GOOSE dataset that contains an IEC 61850 Single Point Status indication and its associated qual-
ity flags, the following dataset items can be selected: “GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal” and “GGIO1.ST.Ind1.q”. The L30 will then cre-
ate a dataset containing these two data items. The status value for GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal is determined by the FlexLogic
operand assigned to GGIO1 indication 1. Changes to this operand will result in the transmission of GOOSE messages con-
taining the defined dataset.

The main reception menu is applicable to configurable GOOSE only and contains the configurable GOOSE dataset items

The configurable GOOSE settings allow the L30 to be configured to receive a number of different datasets within IEC
61850 GOOSE messages. Up to sixteen different configurable datasets can be configured for reception. This is useful for
intercommunication between L30 IEDs and devices from other manufacturers that support IEC 61850.
For intercommunication between L30 IEDs, the fixed (DNA/UserSt) dataset can be used. The DNA/UserSt dataset contains
the same DNA and UserSt bit pairs that are included in GSSE messages.
To set up a L30 to receive a configurable GOOSE dataset that contains two IEC 61850 single point status indications, the
following dataset items can be selected (for example, for configurable GOOSE dataset 1): “GGIO3.ST.Ind1.stVal” and
“GGIO3.ST.Ind2.stVal”. The L30 will then create a dataset containing these two data items. The Boolean status values from
these data items can be utilized as remote input FlexLogic operands. First, the REMOTE DEVICE 1(16) DATASET setting must 5
be set to contain dataset “GOOSEIn 1” (that is, the first configurable dataset). Then REMOTE IN 1(16) ITEM settings must be
set to “Dataset Item 1” and “Dataset Item 2”. These remote input FlexLogic operands will then change state in accordance
with the status values of the data items in the configured dataset.
Double-point status values may be included in the GOOSE dataset. Received values are populated in the
GGIO3.ST.IndPos1.stVal and higher items.
Floating point analog values originating from MMXU logical nodes may be included in GOOSE datasets. Deadband (non-
instantaneous) values can be transmitted. Received values are used to populate the GGIO3.MX.AnIn1 and higher items.
Received values are also available as FlexAnalog parameters (GOOSE analog In1 and up).
GGIO3.MX.AnIn1 to GGIO3.MX.AnIn32 can only be used once for all sixteen reception datasets.

The IED NAME and LD INST settings represent the MMS domain name (IEC 61850 logical device) where all IEC/MMS logical
nodes are located. Valid characters for these values are upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and the underscore (_)
character, and the first character in the string must be a letter. This conforms to the IEC 61850 standard. The LOCATION is a
variable string and can be composed of ASCII characters. This string appears within the PhyName of the LPHD node.
The IEC/MMS TCP PORT NUMBER setting allows the user to change the TCP port number for MMS connections. The INCLUDE
NON-IEC DATA setting determines whether or not the “UR” MMS domain will be available. This domain contains a large num-
ber of UR-series specific data items that are not available in the IEC 61850 logical nodes. This data does not follow the IEC
61850 naming conventions. For communications schemes that strictly follow the IEC 61850 standard, this setting should be
“Disabled”.
When a 0 value is involved in a change, the changes to the IEC/MMS TCP PORT NUMBER setting take effect when the
L30 is restarted.
NOTE
The SERVER SCANNING feature should be set to “Disabled” when IEC 61850 client/server functionality is not required. IEC
61850 has two modes of functionality: GOOSE/GSSE inter-device communication and client/server communication. If the
GOOSE/GSSE functionality is required without the IEC 61850 client server feature, then server scanning can be disabled
to increase CPU resources. When server scanning is disabled, there is no updating of the IEC 61850 logical node status
values in the L30. Clients are still able to connect to the server (L30 relay), but most data values are not updated. This set-
ting does not affect GOOSE/GSSE operation.
Changes to the IED NAME setting, LD INST setting, and GOOSE dataset take effect when the L30 is restarted.

The MMXU deadband settings represent the deadband values used to determine when the update the MMXU “mag” and
“cVal” values from the associated “instmag” and “instcVal” values. The “mag” and “cVal” values are used for the IEC 61850
buffered and unbuffered reports. These settings correspond to the associated “db” data items in the CF functional con-
straint of the MMXU logical node, as per the IEC 61850 standard. According to IEC 61850-7-3, the db value “shall repre-
sent the percentage of difference between the maximum and minimum in units of 0.001%”. Thus, it is important to know the
maximum value for each MMXU measured quantity, since this represents the 100.00% value for the deadband.
The minimum value for all quantities is 0; the maximum values are as follows:
• phase current: 46  phase CT primary setting
• neutral current: 46  ground CT primary setting
• voltage: 275  VT ratio setting

These settings are configured as follows.

• ANALOG IN 1 VALUE: This setting selects the FlexAnalog value to drive the instantaneous value of each GGIO4 ana-
log status value (GGIO4.MX.AnIn1.instMag.f).
• ANALOG IN 1 DB: This setting specifies the deadband for each analog value. Refer to IEC 61850-7-1 and 61850-7-3
for details. The deadband is used to determine when to update the deadbanded magnitude from the instantaneous
magnitude. The deadband is a percentage of the difference between the maximum and minimum values.
• ANALOG IN 1 MIN: This setting specifies the minimum value for each analog value. Refer to IEC 61850-7-1 and
61850-7-3 for details. This minimum value is used to determine the deadband. The deadband is used in the determina-
tion of the deadbanded magnitude from the instantaneous magnitude.
• ANALOG IN 1 MAX: This setting defines the maximum value for each analog value. Refer to IEC 61850-7-1 and 5
61850-7-3 for details. This maximum value is used to determine the deadband. The deadband is used in the determi-
nation of the deadbanded magnitude from the instantaneous magnitude.
Note that the ANALOG IN 1 MIN and ANALOG IN 1 MAX settings are stored as IEEE 754 / IEC 60559 floating point
numbers. Because of the large range of these settings, not all values can be stored. Some values may be rounded
NOTE to the closest possible floating point number.

The GGIO5 logical node allows IEC 61850 client access to integer data values. This allows access to as many as 16
unsigned integer value points, associated timestamps, and quality flags. The method of configuration is similar to that of
GGIO1 (binary status values). The settings allow the selection of FlexInteger values for each GGIO5 integer value point.
It is intended that clients use GGIO5 to access generic integer values from the L30. Additional settings are provided to
allow the selection of the number of integer values available in GGIO5 (1 to 16), and to assign FlexInteger values to the
GGIO5 integer inputs. The following setting is available for all GGIO5 configuration points.
• GGIO5 UINT IN 1 VALUE: This setting selects the FlexInteger value to drive each GGIO5 integer status value
(GGIO5.ST.UIntIn1). This setting is stored as an 32-bit unsigned integer value.

The XCBR1 ST.LOC OPERAND setting is used to inhibit 61850 control commands to close or open breaker through UR
Breaker Control element. See the Breaker Control element logic diagram for more information.
The CLEAR XCBR1 OpCnt setting allows clearing the breaker operating counter. As breakers operate by opening and
closing, the XCBR operating counter status attribute (OpCnt) increments with every operation. Frequent breaker operation
can result in very large OpCnt values over time. This setting allows the OpCnt to be reset to “0” for XCBR1.

The XCBR1 SYNCCHECK CLS setting is used to supervise a close command with a synchrocheck condition within XCBR
logical node. If a Close with SynchroCheck is requested (through a SelectWithValue service) and the SynchroCheck condi-
tion is not satisfied, a Negative Response (-Rsp) is issued with the REASON CODE of Blocked-by-synchrocheck.
The XCBR1 INTERLOCK OPN/CLS settings are used to assign an operand, which is linked into the EnaOpn or EnaCls
INTERLOCKED inputs respectively of the XCBR. When this operand is asserted, XCBR logical node inhibits execution of
the open and close commands respectively. If select before operate (SBO) with Extended Security is requested and Inter-
lock condition exists, the UR responds with a Negative response (-Rsp) with the Reason Code Blocked-by-interlocking.
The XCBR1 Pos ctlModel setting is used to select control model per IEC 61850-7-3. The following control models are sup-
ported by URs:
0 — Status only
1 — Direct control with normal security (direct-operate)
2 — SBO control with normal security (operate-once)
3 — Direct control with enhanced security (direct-operate)
4 — SBO control with enhanced security (operate-once)
See IEC 61850-7-2 for complete details on these control models.
The XCBR1 Pos sboTimeout setting is used to select SBO timeout value. To be successful, the IEC 61850 "operate" com-
mand must be executed after the "select" command within the XCBR1 Pos sboTimeout setting value.
The disconnect switch configuration settings are shown below. Changes to these values will not take effect until the UR is

The CLEAR XSWI1 OpCnt setting represents the disconnect switch operating counter. As disconnect switches operate by
opening and closing, the XSWI operating counter status attribute (OpCnt) increments with every operation. Frequent switch
operation may result in very large OpCnt values over time. This setting allows the OpCnt to be reset to “0” for XSWI1.

The L30 supports the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol. The L30 can be used as an IEC 60870-5-104 slave device connected to a
maximum of two masters (usually either an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the L30 maintains two sets of IEC
60870-5-104 data change buffers, no more than two masters should actively communicate with the L30 at one time.
The IEC ------- DEFAULT THRESHOLD settings are used to determine when to trigger spontaneous responses containing
M_ME_NC_1 analog data. These settings group the L30 analog data into types: current, voltage, power, energy, and other.
Each setting represents the default threshold value for all M_ME_NC_1 analog points of that type. For example, to trigger
spontaneous responses from the L30 when any current values change by 15 A, the IEC CURRENT DEFAULT THRESHOLD set-
ting should be set to 15. Note that these settings are the default values of the deadbands. P_ME_NC_1 (parameter of mea-
sured value, short floating point value) points can be used to change threshold values, from the default, for each individual
M_ME_NC_1 analog point. Whenever power is removed and re-applied to the L30, the default thresholds are in effect.
The IEC REDUNDANCY setting decides whether multiple client connections are accepted or not. If redundancy is set to Yes,
two simultaneous connections can be active at any given time.
When the IEC port number is set to 0, the change takes effect when the L30 is restarted.
NOTE
The L30 relay does not support energy metering. As such, the IEC ENERGY DEFAULT THRESHOLD setting is not appli-
cable.

The relay contains a real time clock (RTC) to create timestamps for communications protocols as well as for historical data,
such as event records and oscillography. When the relay restarts, the RTC initializes from an onboard battery-backed
clock, which has the same accuracy as an electronic watch, approximately ±1 minute per month (~23 ppm). Once the RTC
is synchronized with the Precision Time Protocol (PTP), IRIG-B, or SNTP, its accuracy approaches that of the synchroniz-
ing time delivered to the relay. When the L30/L90 channel asymmetry function is used, the relay’s real time clock must be
5 synchronized to an external time source using PTP or IRIG-B, typically from a global positioning system (GPS) receiver.
The SYNCHRONIZING SOURCE setting configures the priority sequence that the relay uses to determine which of the avail-
able external time sources synchronizes the RTC and the synchrophasor clock. A setting of None causes the RTC and the
synchrophasor clock to free-run. A setting of PP/IRIGB/PTP/SNTP, IRIGB/PP/PTP/SNTP, or PP/PTP/IRIGB/SNTP causes
the relay to track the first source named that is enabled and operational, or free-run if none of these are available. Here, PP
means a time source that is strictly compliant with PP, PTP means a time source that is not strictly compliant with PP. When
a time source fails or recovers, the relay automatically transfers synchronization as required by this setting.
See the COMMANDS SET DATE AND TIME menu section of this manual to manually set the RTC.
The REAL TIME CLOCK EVENTS setting allows changes to the date and/or time to be captured in the event record. The event
records the RTC time before the adjustment.
To enable IRIG-B synchronization, the input IRIG-B SIGNAL TYPE must be set to DC Shift or Amplitude Modulated. IRIG-B
synchronization can be disabled by making this setting None.
To configure and enable PTP and/or SNTP, or to set local time parameters (for example time zone, daylight savings), use

The UR supports the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) specified in IEEE Std 1588 2008 using the Power Profile (PP) specified 5
in IEEE Std C37.238 2011. This enables the relay to synchronize to the international time standard over an Ethernet net-
work that implements PP.
The relay can be configured to operate on some PTP networks that are not strictly PP. Time accuracy can be less than
specified for a PP network. Tolerated deviations from strict PP include 1) missing declaration of PP compliance in the mes-
sages, 2) connection to a network device that does not support the PTP peer delay mechanism, 3) jitter substantially
greater than 1 µs in received event messages, and 4) certain non-compliant announce and sync message update rates.
The relay implements PTP according to IEEE Std 1588 2008 and the equivalent IEC 61588:2009(E), sometimes
referred to as version 2 PTP. It does not support the previous version of the standard (version 1).
NOTE
PTP is a protocol that allows multiple clocks in a network to synchronize with one another. It permits synchronization accu-
racies better than 1 ns, but this requires each and every component in the network achieve very high levels of accuracy and
a very high baud rate, faster than normally used for relay communications. When operating over a generic Ethernet net-
work, time error may amount to 1 ms or more. PP is a profile of PTP which specifies a limited subset of PTP suitable for use
in power system protection, control, automation and data communication applications, and thereby facilitates interoperabil-
ity between different vendor’s clocks and switches. PP specifies a worst-case delivered time error of less than 1 µs over a
16-hop network.
In a PTP system and in a PP system, the clocks automatically organize themselves into a master-slave synchronization
hierarchy with the “best” clock available making itself the "grandmaster" at the top of the hierarchy; all others make them-
selves “slaves” and track the grandmaster. Typically the grandmaster clock receives its time from GPS satellites or some
other link to the international time standard. If the grandmaster fails, the next “best” clock available in the domain assumes
the grandmaster role. Should a clock on starting up discover it is “better” that the present grandmaster, it assumes the
grandmaster role and the previous grandmaster reverts to slave.
Time messages issued by the grandmaster are delayed as they pass through the network both due to the finite speed of
the signal in the interconnecting fiber or wire. Each clock and switch implementing PP measures the propagation delay to
each of its PP neighbors, and compensates for these delays in the time received. Each network device implementing PP
measures the processing delay it introduces in each time message and compensates for this delay in the time it transmits.
As a result, the time delivered to end-devices such as the UR are virtually identical to the grandmaster time. Should one of
the network devices in the hierarchy not fully implement PP, the associated propagation delay and/or latency may not be
compensated for, and the time received at the end-device could be in error by more than 100 µs.

See the Settings > Product Setup > Real Time Clock section of this manual for a description of when time values
received via PTP are used to update the relay’s real time clock.
The following settings are available for configuring the relay for PTP.
STRICT POWER PROFILE
• Power profile (IEEE Std C37.238 2011) requires that the relay only select as a grandmaster power profile compliant
clocks, that the delivered time have worst-case error of ±1 µs, and that the peer delay mechanism be implemented.
With the strict power profile setting enabled, the relay will only select as master clocks displaying the IEEE_C37_238
identification codes. It will use a port only when the peer delay mechanism is operational. With the strict power profile
setting disabled, the relay will use clocks without the power profile identification when no power profile clocks are pres-
ent, and will use ports even if the peer delay mechanism is non-operational.
• This setting applies to all of the relay’s PTP capable ports.
PTP DOMAIN NUMBER
• This setting should be set to the domain number of the grandmaster-capable clock(s) to be synchronized to. A net-
work may support multiple time distribution domains, each distinguished with a unique domain number. More com-
monly, there is a single domain using the default domain number zero.
PTP VLAN PRIORITY
• This setting selects the value of the priority field in the 802.1Q VLAN tag in request messages issued by the relay’s
peer delay mechanism. In compliance with PP the default VLAN priority is 4, but it is recommended that in accordance
with PTP it be set to 7.
• Depending on the characteristics of the device to which the relay is directly linked, VLAN Priority may have no effect.
5 • This setting applies to all of the relay’s PTP capable ports.
PTP VLAN ID
• This setting selects the value of the ID field in the 802.1Q VLAN tag in request messages issued by the relay’s peer
delay mechanism. It is provided in compliance with PP. As these messages have a destination address that indicates
they are not to be bridged, their VLAN ID serves no function, and so may be left at its default value.
• Depending on the characteristics of the device to which the relay is directly linked, VLAN ID may have no effect.
PORT 1 ... 3 FUNCTION
• While this port setting is selected to disabled, PTP is disabled on this port. The relay does not generate or listen to
PTP messages on this port.
PORT 1 ... 3 PATH DELAY ADDER
• The time delivered by PTP is advanced by the time value in this setting prior to the time being used to synchronize the
relay’s real time clock. This is to compensate to the extent practical for time delivery delays not compensated for in the
network. In a fully compliant PP network, the peer delay and the processing delay mechanisms compensate for all the
delays between the grandmaster and the relay. In such networks, this setting should be zero.
• In networks containing one or more switches and/or clocks that do not implement both of these mechanisms, not all
delays are compensated, so the time of message arrival at the relay will be later than the time indicated in the mes-
sage. This setting can be used to approximately compensate for this delay. However, as the relay is not aware of net-
work switching that dynamically changes the amount of uncompensated delay, there is no setting that will always
completely correct for uncompensated delay. A setting can be chosen that will reduce worst-case error to half of the
range between minimum and maximum uncompensated delay, if these values are known.
PORT 1 ... 3 PATH DELAY ASYMMETRY
• This setting corresponds to “delayAsymmetry” in PTP, which is used by the peer delay mechanism to compensate for
any difference in the propagation delay between the two directions of a link. Except in unusual cases, the two fibers are
of essentially identical length and composition, so this setting should be set to zero.
• In unusual cases where the length of the link is different in different directions, this setting should be set to the number
of nanoseconds the Ethernet propagation delay to the relay is longer than the mean of path propagation delays to and

from the relay. For instance, if it is known say from the physical length of the fibers and the propagation speed in the
fibers that the delay from the relay to the Ethernet switch it is connected to is 9 000 ns and the that the delay from the
switch to the relay is 11 000 ns, then the mean delay is 10 000 ns, and the path delay asymmetry is 11000 - 10000 =
+1000 ns.

The L30 supports the Simple Network Time Protocol specified in RFC-2030. With SNTP, the L30 can obtain clock time over
an Ethernet network. The L30 acts as an SNTP client to receive time values from an SNTP/NTP server, usually a dedicated
product using a GPS receiver to provide an accurate time. Unicast SNTP is supported. The UR-series relays do not support
the broadcast, multicast or anycast SNTP functionality.
The SNTP FUNCTION setting enables or disabled the SNTP feature on the L30.
To use SNTP, SNTP SERVER IP ADDR must be set to the SNTP/NTP server IP address. Once this address is set and SNTP
FUNCTION is “Enabled”, the L30 attempts to obtain time values from the SNTP/NTP server. Since many time values are
obtained and averaged, it generally takes three to four minutes until the L30 clock is closely synchronized with the SNTP/
NTP server. It takes up to two minutes for the L30 to signal an SNTP self-test error if the server is offline.
The SNTP UDP PORT NUMBER is 123 for normal SNTP operation. If SNTP is not required, close the port by setting it to 0.

The UR device maintains two times: local time and Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Local time can be provided by IRIG-
B signals. UTC time is provided by SNTP servers.
The real-time clock (RTC) and communication protocol times are not correct unless Local Time is configured for the current
location. When the RTC is synchronized with IRIG-B, Local Time must be configured for the current location or else the
timestamps may not be accurate. Furthermore, times reported in historical records and communication protocols may be
incorrect if the Local Time setting is not configured properly.
The LOCAL TIME OFFSET FROM UTC setting is used to specify the local time zone offset from UTC (Greenwich Mean Time) in
hours. Time zones in the eastern hemisphere have positive values; time zones in the western hemisphere have negative
values. A value of zero causes the relay to use UTC for local time. This setting has two uses. When the system RTC is syn-
chronized with a communications protocol providing only local time or it is free-running, the offset setting is used to calcu-
late UTC from the local time these provide. When the RTC is synchronized with a communications protocol providing only
UTC (such as PTP or SNTP), the time offset setting is used to determine local time from the UTC provided. PTP
ALTERNATE_TIME_OFFSET_INDICATOR TLVs are not used to calculate local time. When a communications protocol
other than PTP provides UTC to local time offset (meaning IRIG-B), that offset is used instead of the local time and daylight
time settings.
The DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME (DST) settings can be used to allow the relay to follow the DST rules of the local time zone.
Note that when IRIG-B time synchronization is active, the local time in the IRIG-B signal contains any daylight savings time
offset and so the DST settings are ignored.

The L30 relay supports one fault report and an associated fault locator. The signal source and trigger condition, as well as
the characteristics of the line or feeder, are entered in this menu.
The fault report stores data, in non-volatile memory, pertinent to an event when triggered. The captured data contained in
the FaultReport.txt file includes:
• Fault report number.
• Name of the relay, programmed by the user.
• Firmware revision of the relay.
• Date and time of trigger.
• Name of trigger (specific operand).
• Line or feeder ID via the name of a configured signal source.
• Active setting group at the time of trigger.
• Pre-fault current and voltage phasors (two cycles before either a 50DD disturbance associated with fault report source
or the trigger operate). Once a disturbance is detected, pre-fault phasors hold for 3 seconds waiting for the fault report
trigger. If trigger does not occur within this time, the values are cleared to prepare for the next disturbance.
• Fault current and voltage phasors (one cycle after the trigger).
• Elements operated at the time of triggering.
• Events: 9 before trigger and 7 after trigger (only available via the relay webpage).
• Fault duration times for each breaker (created by the breaker arcing current feature).

The captured data also includes the fault type and the distance to the fault location, as well as the reclose shot number
(when applicable) To include fault duration times in the fault report, the user must enable and configure breaker arcing cur-
rent feature for each of the breakers. Fault duration is reported on a per-phase basis.
The relay allows locating faults, including ground faults, from delta-connected VTs. In this case, the missing zero-sequence
voltage is substituted either by the externally provided neutral voltage (broken delta VT) connected to the auxiliary voltage
channel of a VT bank, or by the zero-sequence voltage approximated as a voltage drop developed by the zero-sequence
current, and user-provided zero-sequence equivalent impedance of the system behind the relay.
The trigger can be any FlexLogic operand, but in most applications it is expected to be the same operand, usually a virtual
output, that is used to drive an output relay to trip a breaker. To prevent the overwriting of fault events, the disturbance
detector should not be used to trigger a fault report. A FAULT RPT TRIG event is automatically created when the report is
triggered.
If a number of protection elements are ORed to create a fault report trigger, the first operation of any element causing the
OR gate output to become high triggers a fault report. However, If other elements operate during the fault and the first oper-
ated element has not been reset (the OR gate output is still high), the fault report is not triggered again. Considering the
reset time of protection elements, there is very little chance that fault report can be triggered twice in this manner. As the
fault report must capture a usable amount of pre and post-fault data, it can not be triggered faster than every 20 ms.
Each fault report is stored as a file; the relay capacity is fifteen (15) files. An sixteenth (16th) trigger overwrites the oldest
file.
The EnerVista UR Setup software is required to view all captured data. The relay faceplate display can be used to view the
date and time of trigger, the fault type, the distance location of the fault, and the reclose shot number.
The FAULT REPORT 1 SOURCE setting selects the source for input currents and voltages and disturbance detection.
The FAULT 1 REPORT TRIG setting assigns the FlexLogic operand representing the protection element/elements requiring
5 operational fault location calculations. The distance to fault calculations are initiated by this signal. The FAULT REPORT 1 Z1
MAG and FAULT REPORT 1 Z0 MAG impedances are entered in secondary ohms.
The FAULT REPORT 1 VT SUBSTITUTION setting shall be set to “None” if the relay is fed from wye-connected VTs. If delta-con-
nected VTs are used, and the relay is supplied with the neutral (3V0) voltage, this setting shall be set to “V0”. The method is
still exact, as the fault locator would combine the line-to-line voltage measurements with the neutral voltage measurement
to re-create the line-to-ground voltages. See the ACTUAL VALUES  RECORDS  FAULT REPORTS menu for additional
details. It required to configure the delta and neutral voltages under the source indicated as input for the fault report. Also,
the relay will check if the auxiliary signal configured is marked as “Vn” by the user (under VT setup), and inhibit the fault
location if the auxiliary signal is labeled differently.
If the broken-delta neutral voltage is not available to the relay, an approximation is possible by assuming the missing zero-
sequence voltage to be an inverted voltage drop produced by the zero-sequence current and the user-specified equivalent
zero-sequence system impedance behind the relay: V0 = –Z0  I0. In order to enable this mode of operation, the FAULT
REPORT 1 VT SUBSTITUTION setting shall be set to “I0”.
The FAULT REP 1 SYSTEM Z0 MAG and FAULT REP 1 SYSTEM Z0 ANGLE settings are used only when the VT SUBSTITUTION set-
ting value is “I0”. The magnitude is to be entered in secondary ohms. This impedance is an average system equivalent
behind the relay. It can be calculated as zero-sequence Thevenin impedance at the local bus with the protected line/feeder
disconnected. The method is accurate only if this setting matches perfectly the actual system impedance during the fault. If
the system exhibits too much variability, this approach is questionable and the fault location results for single-line-to-ground
faults shall be trusted with accordingly. It should be kept in mind that grounding points in vicinity of the installation impact
the system zero-sequence impedance (grounded loads, reactors, zig-zag transformers, shunt capacitor banks, etc.).

A new record may automatically overwrite an older record if TRIGGER MODE is set to “Automatic Overwrite”.
Set the TRIGGER POSITION to a percentage of the total buffer size (for example, 10%, 50%, 75%, etc.). A trigger position of
25% consists of 25% pre- and 75% post-trigger data. The TRIGGER SOURCE is always captured in oscillography and may be
any FlexLogic parameter (element state, contact input, virtual output, etc.). The relay sampling rate is 64 samples per cycle.
The AC INPUT WAVEFORMS setting determines the sampling rate at which AC input signals (that is, current and voltage) are
stored. Reducing the sampling rate allows longer records to be stored. This setting has no effect on the internal sampling
rate of the relay which is always 64 samples per cycle; that is, it has no effect on the fundamental calculations of the device.
When changes are made to the oscillography settings, all existing oscillography records will be CLEARED.

These settings select the metering actual value recorded in an oscillography trace. The length of each oscillography trace
depends in part on the number of parameters selected here. Parameters set to “Off” are ignored. The parameters available
in a given relay are dependent on:
• The type of relay,
• The type and number of CT/VT hardware modules installed, and
• The type and number of analog input hardware modules installed.
Upon startup, the relay will automatically prepare the parameter list. A list of all possible analog metering actual value
parameters is presented in Appendix A: FlexAnalog parameters. The parameter index number shown in any of the tables is
used to expedite the selection of the parameter on the relay display. It can be quite time-consuming to scan through the list
of parameters via the relay keypad and display - entering this number via the relay keypad will cause the corresponding
parameter to be displayed.
All eight CT/VT module channels are stored in the oscillography file. The CT/VT module channels are named as follows:
<slot_letter><terminal_number>—<I or V><phase A, B, or C, or 4th input>
The fourth current input in a bank is called IG, and the fourth voltage input in a bank is called VX. For example, F2-IB desig-
nates the IB signal on terminal 2 of the CT/VT module in slot F.
If there are no CT/VT modules and analog input modules, no analog traces will appear in the file; only the digital traces will
appear.

The data logger samples and records up to 16 analog parameters at a user-defined sampling rate. This recorded data may

be downloaded to EnerVista UR Setup and displayed with parameters on the vertical axis and time on the horizontal axis.
All data is stored in non-volatile memory, meaning that the information is retained when power to the relay is lost.
For a fixed sampling rate, the data logger can be configured with a few channels over a long period or a larger number of
channels for a shorter period. The relay automatically partitions the available memory between the channels in use. Exam-

• DATA LOGGER MODE: This setting configures the mode in which the data logger will operate. When set to “Continu-
ous”, the data logger will actively record any configured channels at the rate as defined by the DATA LOGGER RATE. The
data logger will be idle in this mode if no channels are configured. When set to “Trigger”, the data logger will begin to
record any configured channels at the instance of the rising edge of the DATA LOGGER TRIGGER source FlexLogic oper-
and. The data logger will ignore all subsequent triggers and will continue to record data until the active record is full.
Once the data logger is full a CLEAR DATA LOGGER command is required to clear the data logger record before a new

data logger to be ready for the next trigger.
• DATA LOGGER TRIGGER: This setting selects the signal used to trigger the start of a new data logger record. Any
FlexLogic operand can be used as the trigger source. The DATA LOGGER TRIGGER setting only applies when the mode
is set to “Trigger”.
• DATA LOGGER RATE: This setting selects the time interval at which the actual value data will be recorded.
• DATA LOGGER CHNL 1(16): This setting selects the metering actual value that is to be recorded in Channel 1(16) of

When enabled, the LED test can be initiated from any digital input or user-programmable condition such as user-program-
mable pushbutton. The control operand is configured under the LED TEST CONTROL setting. The test covers all LEDs,
including the LEDs of the optional user-programmable pushbuttons.
The test consists of three stages.
1. All 62 LEDs on the relay are illuminated. This is a quick test to verify if any of the LEDs is “burned”. This stage lasts as
long as the control input is on, up to a maximum of 1 minute. After 1 minute, the test will end.
2. All the LEDs are turned off, and then one LED at a time turns on for 1 second, then back off. The test routine starts at
the top left panel, moving from the top to bottom of each LED column. This test checks for hardware failures that lead
to more than one LED being turned on from a single logic point. This stage can be interrupted at any time.
3. All the LEDs are turned on. One LED at a time turns off for 1 second, then back on. The test routine starts at the top left
panel moving from top to bottom of each column of the LEDs. This test checks for hardware failures that lead to more
than one LED being turned off from a single logic point. This stage can be interrupted at any time.
When testing is in progress, the LEDs are controlled by the test sequence, rather than the protection, control, and monitor-
ing features. However, the LED control mechanism accepts all the changes to LED states generated by the relay and
stores the actual LED states (on or off) in memory. When the test completes, the LEDs reflect the actual state resulting from
relay response during testing. The reset pushbutton will not clear any targets when the LED Test is in progress.
A dedicated FlexLogic operand, LED TEST IN PROGRESS, is set for the duration of the test. When the test sequence is initi-
ated, the LED TEST INITIATED event is stored in the event recorder.
The entire test procedure is user-controlled. In particular, stage 1 can last as long as necessary, and stages 2 and 3 can be
interrupted. The test responds to the position and rising edges of the control input defined by the LED TEST CONTROL set-
ting. The control pulses must last at least 250 ms to take effect. The following diagram explains how the test is executed.

Control pushbuttons are not typically used for critical operations and are not protected by the control password. However,
by supervising their output operands, the user can dynamically enable or disable control pushbuttons for security reasons.
Each control pushbutton asserts its own FlexLogic operand. These operands should be configured appropriately to perform
the desired function. The operand remains asserted as long as the pushbutton is pressed and resets when the pushbutton
is released. A dropout delay of 100 ms is incorporated to ensure fast pushbutton manipulation will be recognized by various
features that may use control pushbuttons as inputs.
An event is logged in the event record (as per user setting) when a control pushbutton is pressed. No event is logged when
the pushbutton is released. The faceplate keys (including control keys) cannot be operated simultaneously – a given key
must be released before the next one can be pressed.

The control pushbuttons become user-programmable only if the breaker control feature is not configured for manual control
via the USER 1 through 3 pushbuttons as shown below. If configured for manual control, breaker control typically uses the
larger, optional user-programmable pushbuttons, making the control pushbuttons available for other user applications.

The optional user-programmable pushbuttons (specified in the order code) provide an easy and error-free method of enter-
ing digital state (on, off) information. The number of available pushbuttons is dependent on the faceplate module ordered
with the relay.
• Type P faceplate: standard horizontal faceplate with 12 user-programmable pushbuttons.
• Type Q faceplate: enhanced horizontal faceplate with 16 user-programmable pushbuttons.
The digital state can be entered locally (by directly pressing the front panel pushbutton) or remotely (via FlexLogic oper-
ands) into FlexLogic equations, protection elements, and control elements. Typical applications include breaker control,
autorecloser blocking, and setting groups changes. The user-programmable pushbuttons are under the control level of
password protection.

Both the standard and enhanced faceplate pushbuttons can be custom labeled with a factory-provided template, available
online at http://www.gedigitalenergy.com/multilin. The EnerVista UR Setup software can also be used to create labels for
the enhanced faceplate.
Each pushbutton asserts its own “On” and “Off” FlexLogic operands (for example, PUSHBUTTON 1 ON and PUSHBUTTON 1
OFF). These operands are available for each pushbutton and are used to program specific actions. If any pushbutton is 5
active, the ANY PB ON operand will be asserted.
Each pushbutton has an associated LED indicator. By default, this indicator displays the present status of the correspond-
ing pushbutton (on or off). However, each LED indicator can be assigned to any FlexLogic operand through the PUSHBTN 1
LED CTL setting.
The pushbuttons can be automatically controlled by activating the operands assigned to the PUSHBTN 1 SET (for latched and
self-reset mode) and PUSHBTN 1 RESET (for latched mode only) settings. The pushbutton reset status is declared when the
PUSHBUTTON 1 OFF operand is asserted. The activation and deactivation of user-programmable pushbuttons is dependent
on whether latched or self-reset mode is programmed.
• Latched mode: In latched mode, a pushbutton can be set (activated) by asserting the operand assigned to the PUSH-
BTN 1 SET setting or by directly pressing the associated front panel pushbutton. The pushbutton maintains the set state
until deactivated by the reset command or after a user-specified time delay. The state of each pushbutton is stored in
non-volatile memory and maintained through a loss of control power.
The pushbutton is reset (deactivated) in latched mode by asserting the operand assigned to the PUSHBTN 1 RESET set-
ting or by directly pressing the associated active front panel pushbutton.
It can also be programmed to reset automatically through the PUSHBTN 1 AUTORST and PUSHBTN 1 AUTORST DELAY set-
tings. These settings enable the autoreset timer and specify the associated time delay. The autoreset timer can be
used in select-before-operate (SBO) breaker control applications, where the command type (close/open) or breaker
location (feeder number) must be selected prior to command execution. The selection must reset automatically if con-
trol is not executed within a specified time period.
• Self-reset mode: In self-reset mode, a pushbutton will remain active for the time it is pressed (the pulse duration) plus
the dropout time specified in the PUSHBTN 1 DROP-OUT TIME setting. If the pushbutton is activated via FlexLogic, the
pulse duration is specified by the PUSHBTN 1 DROP-OUT TIME only. The time the operand remains assigned to the PUSH-
BTN 1 SET setting has no effect on the pulse duration.
The pushbutton is reset (deactivated) in self-reset mode when the dropout delay specified in the PUSHBTN 1 DROP-OUT
TIMEsetting expires.
The pulse duration of the remote set, remote reset, or local pushbutton must be at least 50 ms to operate the push-
button. This allows the user-programmable pushbuttons to properly operate during power cycling events and vari-
NOTE ous system disturbances that may cause transient assertion of the operating signals.

The local and remote operation of each user-programmable pushbutton can be inhibited through the PUSHBTN 1 LOCAL and
PUSHBTN 1 REMOTE settings, respectively. If local locking is applied, the pushbutton will ignore set and reset commands
executed through the front panel pushbuttons. If remote locking is applied, the pushbutton will ignore set and reset com-
mands executed through FlexLogic operands.
The locking functions are not applied to the autorestart feature. In this case, the inhibit function can be used in SBO control
operations to prevent the pushbutton function from being activated and ensuring “one-at-a-time” select operation.
The locking functions can also be used to prevent the accidental pressing of the front panel pushbuttons. The separate
inhibit of the local and remote operation simplifies the implementation of local/remote control supervision.
Pushbutton states can be logged by the event recorder and displayed as target messages. In latched mode, user-defined
messages can also be associated with each pushbutton and displayed when the pushbutton is on or changing to off.
• PUSHBUTTON 1 FUNCTION: This setting selects the characteristic of the pushbutton. If set to “Disabled”, the push-
button is not active and the corresponding FlexLogic operands (both “On” and “Off”) are de-asserted. If set to “Self-
Reset”, the control logic is activated by the pulse (longer than 100 ms) issued when the pushbutton is being physically
pressed or virtually pressed via a FlexLogic operand assigned to the PUSHBTN 1 SET setting.
When in “Self-Reset” mode and activated locally, the pushbutton control logic asserts the “On” corresponding Flex-
Logic operand as long as the pushbutton is being physically pressed, and after being released the deactivation of the
operand is delayed by the drop out timer. The “Off” operand is asserted when the pushbutton element is deactivated. If
the pushbutton is activated remotely, the control logic of the pushbutton asserts the corresponding “On” FlexLogic
operand only for the time period specified by the PUSHBTN 1 DROP-OUT TIME setting.
If set to “Latched”, the control logic alternates the state of the corresponding FlexLogic operand between “On” and “Off”
on each button press or by virtually activating the pushbutton (assigning set and reset operands). When in the
“Latched” mode, the states of the FlexLogic operands are stored in a non-volatile memory. Should the power supply be
lost, the correct state of the pushbutton is retained upon subsequent power up of the relay.
5 • PUSHBTN 1 ID TEXT: This setting specifies the top 20-character line of the user-programmable message and is
intended to provide ID information of the pushbutton. Refer to the User-definable displays section for instructions on
how to enter alphanumeric characters from the keypad.
• PUSHBTN 1 ON TEXT: This setting specifies the bottom 20-character line of the user-programmable message and is
displayed when the pushbutton is in the “on” position. Refer to the User-definable displays section for instructions on
entering alphanumeric characters from the keypad.
• PUSHBTN 1 OFF TEXT: This setting specifies the bottom 20-character line of the user-programmable message and is
displayed when the pushbutton is activated from the on to the off position and the PUSHBUTTON 1 FUNCTION is
“Latched”. This message is not displayed when the PUSHBUTTON 1 FUNCTION is “Self-reset” as the pushbutton operand
status is implied to be “Off” upon its release. The length of the “Off” message is configured with the PRODUCT SETUP
 DISPLAY PROPERTIES  FLASH MESSAGE TIME setting.
• PUSHBTN 1 HOLD: This setting specifies the time required for a pushbutton to be pressed before it is deemed active.
This timer is reset upon release of the pushbutton. Note that any pushbutton operation will require the pushbutton to be
pressed a minimum of 50 ms. This minimum time is required prior to activating the pushbutton hold timer.
• PUSHBTN 1 SET: This setting assigns the FlexLogic operand serving to operate the pushbutton element and to assert
PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand. The duration of the incoming set signal must be at least 100 ms.
• PUSHBTN 1 RESET: This setting assigns the FlexLogic operand serving to reset pushbutton element and to assert
PUSHBUTTON 1 OFF operand. This setting is applicable only if pushbutton is in latched mode. The duration of the
incoming reset signal must be at least 50 ms.
• PUSHBTN 1 AUTORST: This setting enables the user-programmable pushbutton autoreset feature. This setting is
applicable only if the pushbutton is in the “Latched” mode.
• PUSHBTN 1 AUTORST DELAY: This setting specifies the time delay for automatic reset of the pushbutton when in
the latched mode.
• PUSHBTN 1 REMOTE: This setting assigns the FlexLogic operand serving to inhibit pushbutton operation from the
operand assigned to the PUSHBTN 1 SET or PUSHBTN 1 RESET settings.
• PUSHBTN 1 LOCAL: This setting assigns the FlexLogic operand serving to inhibit pushbutton operation from the front
panel pushbuttons. This locking functionality is not applicable to pushbutton autoreset.

• PUSHBTN 1 DROP-OUT TIME: This setting applies only to “Self-Reset” mode and specifies the duration of the push-
button active status after the pushbutton has been released. When activated remotely, this setting specifies the entire
activation time of the pushbutton status; the length of time the operand remains on has no effect on the pulse duration.
This setting is required to set the duration of the pushbutton operating pulse.
• PUSHBTN 1 LED CTL: This setting assigns the FlexLogic operand serving to drive pushbutton LED. If this setting is
“Off”, then LED operation is directly linked to PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand.
• PUSHBTN 1 MESSAGE: If pushbutton message is set to “High Priority”, the message programmed in the PUSHBTN 1
IDand PUSHBTN 1 ON TEXT settings will be displayed undisturbed as long as PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand is asserted.
The high priority option is not applicable to the PUSHBTN 1 OFF TEXT setting.
This message can be temporary removed if any front panel keypad button is pressed. However, ten seconds of keypad
inactivity will restore the message if the PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand is still active.
If the PUSHBTN 1 MESSAGE is set to “Normal”, the message programmed in the PUSHBTN 1 ID and PUSHBTN 1 ON TEXT
settings will be displayed as long as PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand is asserted, but not longer than time period specified
by FLASH MESSAGE TIME setting. After the flash time is expired, the default message or other active target message is
displayed. The instantaneous reset of the flash message will be executed if any relay front panel button is pressed or
any new target or message becomes active.
The PUSHBTN 1 OFF TEXT setting is linked to PUSHBUTTON 1 OFF operand and will be displayed in conjunction with
PUSHBTN 1 ID only if pushbutton element is in the “Latched” mode. The PUSHBTN 1 OFF TEXT message will be displayed
as “Normal” if the PUSHBTN 1 MESSAGE setting is “High Priority” or “Normal”.
• PUSHBUTTON 1 EVENTS: If this setting is enabled, each pushbutton state change will be logged as an event into
event recorder.

This feature provides a mechanism where any of 256 selected FlexLogic operand states can be used for efficient monitor-
ing. The feature allows user-customized access to the FlexLogic operand states in the relay. The state bits are packed so
that 16 states may be read out in a single Modbus register. The state bits can be configured so that all of the states which
are of interest to the user are available in a minimum number of Modbus registers.
The state bits may be read out in the “Flex States” register array beginning at Modbus address 0900h. Sixteen states are
packed into each register, with the lowest-numbered state in the lowest-order bit. There are sixteen registers to accommo-
date the 256 state bits.

This menu provides a mechanism for manually creating up to 16 user-defined information displays in a convenient viewing
sequence in the USER DISPLAYS menu (between the TARGETS and ACTUAL VALUES top-level menus). The sub-menus facili-
tate text entry and Modbus register data pointer options for defining the user display content.
Once programmed, the user-definable displays can be viewed in two ways.
• KEYPAD: Use the MENU key to select the USER DISPLAYS menu item to access the first user-definable display (note
that only the programmed screens are displayed). The screens can be scrolled using the UP and DOWN keys. The
display disappears after the default message time-out period specified by the PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPER-
TIES  DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT setting.
• USER-PROGRAMMABLE CONTROL INPUT: The user-definable displays also respond to the INVOKE AND SCROLL
setting. Any FlexLogic operand (in particular, the user-programmable pushbutton operands), can be used to navigate
the programmed displays.
On the rising edge of the configured operand (such as when the pushbutton is pressed), the displays are invoked by
showing the last user-definable display shown during the previous activity. From this moment onward, the operand
acts exactly as the down key and allows scrolling through the configured displays. The last display wraps up to the first
one. The INVOKE AND SCROLL input and the DOWN key operate concurrently.
When the default timer expires (set by the DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT setting), the relay will start to cycle through the
user displays. The next activity of the INVOKE AND SCROLL input stops the cycling at the currently displayed user dis-
play, not at the first user-defined display. The INVOKE AND SCROLL pulses must last for at least 250 ms to take effect.

Any existing system display can be automatically copied into an available user display by selecting the existing display and
pressing the ENTER key. The display will then prompt ADD TO USER DISPLAY LIST?. After selecting “Yes”, a message indi-
cates that the selected display has been added to the user display list. When this type of entry occurs, the sub-menus are
automatically configured with the proper content – this content may subsequently be edited.
This menu is used to enter user-defined text and user-selected Modbus-registered data fields into the particular user dis- 5
play. Each user display consists of two 20-character lines (top and bottom). The tilde (~) character is used to mark the start
of a data field – the length of the data field needs to be accounted for. Up to five separate data fields can be entered in a
user display – the nth tilde (~) refers to the nth item.
A user display may be entered from the faceplate keypad or the EnerVista UR Setup interface (preferred for convenience).
The following procedure shows how to enter text characters in the top and bottom lines from the faceplate keypad:
1. Select the line to be edited.
2. Press the decimal key to enter text edit mode.
3. Use either VALUE key to scroll through the characters. A space is selected like a character.
4. Press the decimal key to advance the cursor to the next position.
5. Repeat step 3 and continue entering characters until the desired text is displayed.
6. The HELP key may be pressed at any time for context sensitive help information.
7. Press the ENTER key to store the new settings.
To enter a numerical value for any of the five items (the decimal form of the selected Modbus address) from the faceplate
keypad, use the number keypad. Use the value of “0” for any items not being used. Use the HELP key at any selected sys-
tem display (setting, actual value, or command) which has a Modbus address, to view the hexadecimal form of the Modbus
address, then manually convert it to decimal form before entering it (EnerVista UR Setup usage conveniently facilitates this
conversion).
Use the MENU key to go to the user displays menu to view the user-defined content. The current user displays will show in
sequence, changing every four seconds. While viewing a user display, press the ENTER key and then select the ‘Yes”
option to remove the display from the user display list. Use the MENU key again to exit the user displays menu.

5 SETTINGS 5.3 REMOTE RESOURCES
5.3REMOTE RESOURCES 5.3.1 REMOTE RESOURCES CONFIGURATION
When L30 is ordered with a process card module as a part of HardFiber system, then an additional Remote Resources
menu tree is available in EnerVista UR Setup software to allow configuration of the HardFiber system.
Figure 5–17: REMOTE RESOURCES CONFIGURATION MENU

The remote resources settings configure a L30 with a process bus module to work with HardFiber Bricks. Remote
resources configuration is only available through the EnerVista UR Setup software, and is not available through the L30
front panel. A Brick provides eight AC measurements, along with contact inputs, DC analog inputs, and contact outputs, to 5
be the remote interface to field equipment such as circuit breakers and transformers. The L30 with a process bus module
has access to all of the capabilities of up to eight Bricks. Remote resources settings configure the point-to-point connection
between specific fiber optic ports on the L30 process card and specific Brick. The relay is then configured to measure spe-
cific currents, voltages and contact inputs from those Bricks, and to control specific outputs.
The configuration process for remote resources is straightforward and consists of the following steps.
• Configure the field units. This establishes the point-to-point connection between a specific port on the relay process
bus module, and a specific digital core on a specific Brick. This is a necessary first step in configuring a process bus
relay.
• Configure the AC banks. This sets the primary and secondary quantities and connections for currents and voltages.
AC bank configuration also provides a provision for redundant measurements for currents and voltages, a powerful
reliability improvement possible with process bus.
• Configure signal sources. This functionality of the L30 has not changed other than the requirement to use currents and
voltages established by AC bank configuration under the remote resources menu.
• Configure field contact inputs, field contact outputs, RTDs, and transducers as required for the application's functional-
ity. These inputs and outputs are the physical interface to circuit breakers, transformers, and other equipment. They
replace the traditional contact inputs and outputs located at the relay to virtually eliminate copper wiring.
• Configure shared inputs and outputs as required for the application's functionality. Shared inputs and outputs are dis-
tinct binary channels that provide high-speed protection quality signaling between relays through a Brick.
For additional information on how to configure a relay with a process bus module, see GE publication number GEK-113658:

Four banks of phase and ground CTs can be set, where the current banks are denoted in the following format (X represents
the module slot position letter):
Xa, where X = {F, L} and a = {1, 5}.
See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional details.
These settings are critical for all features that have settings dependent on current measurements. When the relay is
ordered, the CT module must be specified to include a standard or sensitive ground input. As the phase CTs are connected
in wye (star), the calculated phasor sum of the three phase currents (IA + IB + IC = neutral current = 3Io) is used as the
input for the neutral overcurrent elements. In addition, a zero-sequence (core balance) CT which senses current in all of the
5 circuit primary conductors, or a CT in a neutral grounding conductor may also be used. For this configuration, the ground
CT primary rating must be entered. To detect low level ground fault currents, the sensitive ground input may be used. In this
case, the sensitive ground CT primary rating must be entered. Refer to chapter 3 for more details on CT connections.
Enter the rated CT primary current values. For both 1000:5 and 1000:1 CTs, the entry would be 1000. For correct opera-
tion, the CT secondary rating must match the setting (which must also correspond to the specific CT connections used).
The following example illustrates how multiple CT inputs (current banks) are summed as one source current. Given the fol-
lowing current banks:
• F1: CT bank with 500:1 ratio.
• F5: CT bank with 1000:1 ratio.
• L1: CT bank with 800:1 ratio.
The following rule applies:
SRC 1 = F1 + F5 + L1 (EQ 5.6)
1 pu is the highest primary current. In this case, 1000 is entered and the secondary current from the 500:1 ratio CT will be
adjusted to that created by a 1000:1 CT before summation. If a protection element is set up to act on SRC 1 currents, then
a pickup level of 1 pu will operate on 1000 A primary.
The same rule applies for current sums from CTs with different secondary taps (5 A and 1 A).

With VTs installed, the relay can perform voltage measurements as well as power calculations. Enter the PHASE VT F5 CON-

The nominal PHASE VT F5 SECONDARY voltage setting is the voltage across the relay input terminals when nominal

NOTE
For example, on a system with a 13.8 kV nominal primary voltage and with a 14400:120 volt VT in a delta connec-
tion, the secondary voltage would be 115; that is, (13800 / 14400) × 120. For a wye connection, the voltage value
entered must be the phase to neutral voltage which would be 115  3 = 66.4.
On a 14.4 kV system with a delta connection and a VT primary to secondary turns ratio of 14400:120, the voltage
value entered would be 120; that is, 14400 / 120.

The power system NOMINAL FREQUENCY value is used as a default to set the digital sampling rate if the system frequency
cannot be measured from available signals. This may happen if the signals are not present or are heavily distorted. Before
reverting to the nominal frequency, the frequency tracking algorithm holds the last valid frequency measurement for a safe
period of time while waiting for the signals to reappear or for the distortions to decay.
The phase sequence of the power system is required to properly calculate sequence components and power parameters.
The PHASE ROTATION setting matches the power system phase sequence. Note that this setting informs the relay of the
actual system phase sequence, either ABC or ACB. CT and VT inputs on the relay, labeled as A, B, and C, must be con-
nected to system phases A, B, and C for correct operation.

The FREQUENCY AND PHASE REFERENCE setting determines which signal source is used (and hence which AC signal) for
phase angle reference. The AC signal used is prioritized based on the AC inputs that are configured for the signal source:
phase voltages takes precedence, followed by auxiliary voltage, then phase currents, and finally ground current.
For three phase selection, phase A is used for angle referencing ( V ANGLE REF = V A ), while Clarke transformation of the
phase signals is used for frequency metering and tracking ( V FREQUENCY =  2V A – V B – V C   3 ) for better performance dur-
ing fault, open pole, and VT and CT fail conditions.
The phase reference and frequency tracking AC signals are selected based upon the Source configuration, regardless of
whether or not a particular signal is actually applied to the relay.
Phase angle of the reference signal will always display zero degrees and all other phase angles will be relative to this sig-
nal. If the pre-selected reference signal is not measurable at a given time, the phase angles are not referenced.
The phase angle referencing is done via a phase locked loop, which can synchronize independent UR-series relays if they
have the same AC signal reference. This results in very precise correlation of phase angle indications between different
UR-series relays.
FREQUENCY TRACKING is set to “Disabled” only in unusual circumstances; consult the factory for special variable-
frequency applications.
NOTE
The frequency tracking feature functions only when the L30 is in the “Programmed” mode. If the L30 is “Not Pro-
grammed”, then metering values are available but can exhibit significant errors.
NOTE
The nominal system frequency should be selected as 50 Hz or 60 Hz only. The FREQUENCY AND PHASE REFERENCE
setting, used as a reference for calculating all angles, must be identical for all terminals. Whenever the 87L function
NOTE
is “Enabled”, the frequency tracking function is disabled, and frequency tracking is driven by the L30 algorithm (see
5 the Theory of operation chapter). Whenever the 87L function is “Disabled”, the frequency tracking mechanism
reverts to the UR-series mechanism which uses the FREQUENCY TRACKING setting to provide frequency tracking for
all other elements and functions.

Identical menus are available for each source. The "SRC 1" text can be replaced by with a user-defined name appropriate
for the associated source.
The first letter in the source identifier represents the module slot position. The number directly following this letter repre-
sents either the first bank of four channels (1, 2, 3, 4) called “1” or the second bank of four channels (5, 6, 7, 8) called “5” in
a particular CT/VT module. Refer to the Introduction to AC sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional
details on this concept.
It is possible to select the sum of all CT combinations. The first channel displayed is the CT to which all others will be
referred. For example, the selection “F1+F5” indicates the sum of each phase from channels “F1” and “F5”, scaled to
whichever CT has the higher ratio. Selecting “None” hides the associated actual values.

The approach used to configure the AC sources consists of several steps; first step is to specify the information about each
CT and VT input. For CT inputs, this is the nominal primary and secondary current. For VTs, this is the connection type,
ratio and nominal secondary voltage. Once the inputs have been specified, the configuration for each source is entered,
including specifying which CTs will be summed together.
User selection of AC parameters for comparator elements:
CT/VT modules automatically calculate all current and voltage parameters from the available inputs. Users must select the
specific input parameters to be measured by every element in the relevant settings menu. The internal design of the ele-
ment specifies which type of parameter to use and provides a setting for source selection. In elements where the parameter
may be either fundamental or RMS magnitude, such as phase time overcurrent, two settings are provided. One setting
specifies the source, the second setting selects between fundamental phasor and RMS.
AC input actual values:
The calculated parameters associated with the configured voltage and current inputs are displayed in the current and volt-
age sections of actual values. Only the phasor quantities associated with the actual AC physical input channels will be dis-
played here. All parameters contained within a configured source are displayed in the sources section of the actual values.
DISTURBANCE DETECTORS (INTERNAL):
The disturbance detector (ANSI 50DD) element is a sensitive current disturbance detector that detects any disturbance on
the protected system. The 50DD function is used directly in some elements in the relay, for example VT Fuse Failure detec-
tor or Fault Report. It can also be used to supervise current-based elements to prevent maloperation as a result of the
wrong settings or external CT wiring problem. A disturbance detector is provided for each source.
The 50DD function responds to the changes in magnitude of the sequence currents. The disturbance detector scheme
logic is as follows:

Figure 5–18: DISTURBANCE DETECTOR LOGIC DIAGRAM

The disturbance detector responds to the change in currents of twice the current cut-off level. The default cut-off threshold
is 0.02 pu; thus by default the disturbance detector responds to a change of 0.04 pu. The metering sensitivity setting (PROD-
UCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES  CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL) controls the sensitivity of the disturbance detector
accordingly.

Any changes to the L30 power system settings change the protection system configuration. As such, the 87L pro-
tection at all L30 protection system terminals must be temporarily disabled to allow the relays to acknowledge the

new settings.
• NUMBER OF TERMINALS: This setting is the number of the terminals of the associated protected line.
• NUMBER OF CHANNELS: This setting should correspond to the type of communications module installed. If the relay
is applied on two terminal lines with a single communications channel, this setting should be selected as "1". For a two
terminal line with a second redundant channel for increased dependability, or for three terminal line applications, this
setting should be selected as "2".
• CHARGING CURRENT COMPENSATION: This setting enables and disables the charging current calculations and
corrections of current phasors. The voltage signals used for charging current compensation are taken from the source
assigned with the CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 1 setting. As such, it's critical to ensure that three-phase line voltage is
assigned to this source. The following diagram shows possible configurations.

• POSITIVE and ZERO SEQUENCE CAPACITIVE REACTANCE: The values of positive and zero-sequence capacitive
reactance of the protected line are required for charging current compensation calculations. The line capacitive reac-
tance values should be entered in primary kohms for the total line length. Details of the charging current compensa-
tion algorithm can be found in Chapter 8: Theory of operation.
If shunt reactors are also installed on the line, the resulting value entered in the POS SEQ CAPACITIVE REACTANCE and
ZERO SEQ CAPACITIVE REACTANCE settings should be calculated as follows:
1. Three-reactor arrangement: three identical line reactors (Xreact) solidly connected phase to ground:

2. Four-reactor arrangement: three identical line reactors (Xreact) wye-connected with the fourth reactor (Xreact_n)
connected between reactor-bank neutral and the ground.

X0line_capac = the total line zero-sequence capacitive reactance
Xreact = the total reactor inductive reactance per phase. If identical reactors are installed at both line ends, the
value of the inductive reactance is divided by 2 (or 3 for a three-terminal line) before using in the above

Charging current compensation calculations should be performed for an arrangement where the VTs are con-
nected to the line side of the circuit; otherwise, opening the breaker at one end of the line will cause a calcula-
NOTE
tion error.
Differential current is significantly decreased when CHARGING CURRENT COMPENSATION is “Enabled” and the
proper reactance values are entered. The effect of charging current compensation is viewed in the METERING
NOTE
 87L DIFFERENTIAL CURRENT actual values menu. This effect is very dependent on CT and VT accuracy.

• ZERO-SEQUENCE CURRENT REMOVAL: This setting facilitates application of the L30 to transmission lines with one
or more tapped transformers without current measurement at the taps. If the tapped transformer is connected in a
grounded wye on the line side, it becomes a source of the zero-sequence current for external ground faults. As the
transformer current is not measured by the L30 protection system, the zero-sequence current would create a spurious
differential signal and may cause a false trip.
If enabled, this setting forces the L30 to remove zero-sequence current from the phase currents prior to forming their
differential signals, ensuring protection stability on external ground faults. However, zero-sequence current removal
may cause all three phases to trip for internal ground faults. Consequently, a phase selective operation of the L30 is
not retained if the setting is enabled. This does not impose any limitation, as single-pole tripping is not recommended
for lines with tapped transformers. Refer to chapter 9 for guidelines.
• LOCAL (TERMINAL 1 and TERMINAL 2) ID NUMBER: In installations using multiplexers or modems for communica-
tion, it is desirable to ensure the data used by the relays protecting a given line comes from the correct relays. The L30
performs this check by reading the ID number contained in the messages sent by transmitting relays and comparing
this ID to the programmed correct ID numbers by the receiving relays. This check is used to block the differential ele-
ment of a relay, if the channel is inadvertently set to loopback mode, by recognizing its own ID on a received channel.
If an incorrect ID is found on a either channel during normal operation, the FlexLogic™ operand 87 CH1(2) ID FAIL is
set, driving the event with the same name. The result of channel identification is also available in ACTUAL VALUES 
STATUS  CHANNEL TESTS  VALIDITY OF CHANNEL CONFIGURATION for commissioning purposes. The default value
“0” at local relay ID setting indicates that the channel ID number is not to be checked. Refer to the Current differential
section in this chapter for additional information.
For two-terminal applications, only the LOCAL ID NUMBER and TERMINAL 1 ID NUMBER should be used. The TERMINAL 2
ID NUMBER is used for three-terminal applications.
• CHNL ASYM COMP: This setting enables/disables channel asymmetry compensation. The compensation is based on
absolute time referencing provided by GPS-based clocks via the Precision Time Protocol or IRIG-B. Use this feature
on multiplexed channels where channel asymmetry can be expected and which otherwise causes errors in current dif- 5
ferential calculations. The feature takes effect if all terminals are provided with reliable GPS clock signals. If the GPS
clock signal is lost at any terminal of the current differential protection system, or the real time clock not configured,
then the compensation is not calculated. If the compensation is in place prior to losing the GPS time reference, the last
(memorized) correction is applied as long as the value of CHNL ASYM COMP is “On”. See chapter 9 for additional infor-
mation.
The GPS-based compensation for channel asymmetry can take three different effects:
• If the CHNL ASYM COMP selected FlexLogic operand is “Off”, compensation is not applied and the L30 uses only
the ping-pong technique.
• If the CHNL ASYM COMP selected FlexLogic operand is “On” and all terminals have a valid time reference, then
compensation is applied and the L30 effectively uses GPS time referencing tracking channel asymmetry if the lat-
ter fluctuates.
• If CHNL ASYM COMP is “On” and not all terminals have a valid time reference, then compensation is not applied (if
the system was not compensated prior to the problem), or the memorized (last valid) compensation is used if com-
pensation was in effect prior to the problem.
A terminal is considered to have a valid time reference while the BLOCK GPS TIME REF selected FlexLogic operand
is Off and the LOCAL GPS TROUBLE signal is Off. The LOCAL GPS TROUBLE signal is On if the real time clock is
not locked to global time via PP, PTP, or IRIG-B. It is also On if locked via Amplitude Modulated IRIG-B, and if locked
via PP or PTP and indicated clock accuracy is less than 250 µs.
The CHNL ASYM COMP setting dynamically turns the GPS compensation on and off. A FlexLogic operand that combines
several factors is typically used. The L30 protection system does not incorporate any pre-defined way of treating cer-
tain conditions, such as failure of the GPS receiver, loss of satellite signal, channel asymmetry prior to the loss of refer-
ence time, or change of the round trip time prior to loss of the time reference. Virtually any philosophy can be
programmed by selecting the CHNL ASYM COMP setting. Factors to consider are:
• Fail-safe output of the GPS receiver. Some receivers may be equipped with the fail-safe output relay. The L30 sys-
tem requires a maximum error of 250 s. The fail-safe output of the GPS receiver may be connected to the local
L30 via an input contact. In the case of GPS receiver fail, the channel compensation function can be effectively
disabled by using the input contact in conjunction with the BLOCK GPS TIME REF (GPS) setting.

• Channel asymmetry prior to losing the GPS time reference. This value is measured by the L30 and a user-pro-
grammable threshold is applied to it. The corresponding FlexLogic operands are produced if the asymmetry is
above the threshold (87L DIFF MAX 1 ASYM and 87L DIFF 2 MAX ASYM). These operands can be latched in Flex-
Logic and combined with other factors to decide, upon GPS loss, if the relays continue to compensate using the
memorized correction. Typically, one may decide to keep compensating if the pre-existing asymmetry was low.
• Change in the round trip travel time. This value is measured by the L30 and a user-programmable threshold
applied to it. The corresponding FlexLogic operands are produced if the delta change is above the threshold (87L
DIFF 1 TIME CHNG and 87L DIFF 2 TIME CHNG). These operands can be latched in FlexLogic and combined with
other factors to decide, upon GPS loss, if the relays continue to compensate using the memorized correction. Typ-
ically, one may decide to disable compensation if the round trip time changes.
• BLOCK GPS TIME REF: This setting signals to the L30 that the time reference is not valid. The time reference may be
not accurate due to problems with the GPS receiver. The user must to be aware of the case when a GPS satellite
receiver loses its satellite signal and reverts to its own calibrated crystal oscillator. In this case, accuracy degrades in
time and may eventually cause relay misoperation. Verification from the manufacturer of receiver accuracy not worse
than 250 s and the presence of an alarm contact indicating loss of the satellite signal is strongly recommended. If the
time reference accuracy cannot be guaranteed, it should be relayed to the L30 via contact inputs and GPS compensa-
tion effectively blocked using the contact position in conjunction with the BLOCK GPS TIME REF setting. This setting is
typically a signal from the GPS receiver signaling problems or time inaccuracy.
Some GPS receivers can supply erroneous IRIG-B signals during power-up and before locking to satellites. If the
receiver’s failsafe contact opens during power-up (allowing for an erroneous IRIG-B signal), then set a dropout delay
up to 15 minutes (depending on GPS receiver specifications) to the failsafe contact via FlexLogic to prevent incorrect
relay response.
• MAX CHNL ASYMMETRY: This setting detects excessive channel asymmetry. The same threshold is applied to both
the channels, while the following per-channel FlexLogic operands are generated: 87L DIFF 1 MAX ASYM and 87L DIFF 2
5 MAX ASYM. These operands can be used to alarm on problems with communication equipment and/or to decide
whether channel asymmetry compensation remains in operation should the GPS-based time reference be lost. Chan-
nel asymmetry is measured if both terminals of a given channel have valid time reference.
If the memorized asymmetry value is much greater than expected (indicating a significant problem with GPS clock tim-
ing), then this operand can be also used to block GPS compensation, forcing the relay to use the memorized asymme-
try value.
• ROUND TRIP TIME CHANGE: This setting detects changes in round trip time. This threshold is applied to both chan-
nels, while the 87L DIFF 1 TIME CHNG and 87L DIFF 2 TIME CHNG ASYM per-channel FlexLogic operands are generated.
These operands can be used to alarm on problems with communication equipment and/or to decide whether channel
asymmetry compensation remains in operation should the GPS-based time reference be lost.
• LOCAL GPS TROUBLE: This signal is On when any of the following conditions are present:
• The best clock selector (BCS) selection is none or SNTP
• The BCS selection is IRIG-B and the IRIG-B SIGNAL TYPE setting is Amplitude Modulated
• The RTC and/or the synchrophasor clock are not synchronized to the selected synchronizing source. This can
possibly occur on power up, when transferring between sources, and when the selected source's holdover timer
times out.
• The quality bits in the messages from the a PTP source used for synchronizing indicate worst-case error greater
than 250 µs, or accuracy less than 250 µs, or unknown accuracy/error (that is, not locked to an international time
standard). Apply 2 security counts (2 seconds) to both set and reset of this operand when change is based on
accuracy. There is no corresponding quality test for IRIG-B sources here.

DIFF CT TAP setting should be used. It is important to properly program the in-zone transformer setting for all terminals to
ensure correct 87L performance.
• IN-ZONE TRANSFORMER CONNECTION: This setting is used to indicate the presence and group connection of the
in-zone transformer. The winding angle selection specifies the phase shift of the remote terminal side winding with
respect to the local terminal side winding. For example, for the Dy1 group where the delta winding is connected to the
local terminal side, and wye winding is connected to the remote terminal side, you need to select “30° lag” for the local
terminal side. (At the remote terminal relay, select “330° lag” for this transformer group connection.) If there is no in-
zone transformer connected, then program this setting as “None” (note that the “0° lag” value does not correspond to
“None”). Only one in-zone transformer is allowed for both two-terminal and three-terminal applications. Enabling in-
zone transformer functionality forces the L30 to automatically remove the zero-sequence component from all terminals
currents. It also disables ground differential 87LG functionality and zero-sequence current removal functionality
defined by the ZERO SEQ CURRENT REMOVAL setting.
• TRANSFORMER LOCATION: This setting selects the transformer location and is applicable only if the TRANSFORMER

– Select the “LOCAL-TAP” value if the transformer is present between the local terminal and the tap point or for two-

– Select the “REM1-TAP” if the transformer is present between remote terminal 1 and the tap point.
– Select the “REM2-TAP” if the transformer is present between remote terminal 2 and the tap point.

A description of the operation of the breaker control and status monitoring features is provided in chapter 4. Only informa-
tion concerning programming of the associated settings is covered here. These features are provided for two or more
breakers; a user may use only those portions of the design relevant to a single breaker, which must be breaker 1.
The number of breaker control elements is dependent on the number of CT/VT modules specified with the L30. The follow-
ing settings are available for each breaker control element.
• BREAKER 1 FUNCTION: This setting enables and disables the operation of the breaker control feature.
• BREAKER1 PUSH BUTTON CONTROL: Set to “Enable” to allow faceplate push button operations.
• BREAKER 1 NAME: Assign a user-defined name (up to six characters) to the breaker. This name will be used in flash
messages related to breaker 1.
• BREAKER 1 MODE: This setting selects “3-Pole” mode, where all breaker poles are operated simultaneously, or “1-
Pole” mode where all breaker poles are operated either independently or simultaneously.
• BREAKER 1 OPEN: This setting selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay to
open breaker 1.
• BREAKER 1 BLK OPEN: This setting selects an operand that prevents opening of the breaker. This setting can be
used for select-before-operate functionality or to block operation from a panel switch or from SCADA.
• BREAKER 1 CLOSE: This setting selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay
to close breaker 1.
• BREAKER 1 BLK CLOSE: This setting selects an operand that prevents closing of the breaker. This setting can be
used for select-before-operate functionality or to block operation from a panel switch or from SCADA.
• BREAKER 1 A/3P CLOSED: This setting selects an operand, usually a contact input connected to a breaker auxil-
iary position tracking mechanism. This input should be a normally-open 52/a status input to create a logic 1 when the
5 breaker is closed. If the BREAKER 1 MODE setting is selected as “3-Pole”, this setting selects a single input as the oper-
and used to track the breaker open or closed position. If the mode is selected as “1-Pole”, the input mentioned above
is used to track phase A and the BREAKER 1 B and BREAKER 1 C settings select operands to track phases B and C,
respectively.
• BREAKER 1 A/3P OPND: This setting selects an operand, usually a contact input, that should be a normally-closed
52/b status input to create a logic 1 when the breaker is open. If a separate 52/b contact input is not available, then the
inverted BREAKER 1 CLOSED status signal can be used.
• BREAKER 1 B CLOSED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected
as single-pole, this input is used to track the breaker phase B closed position as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1 B OPENED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected
as single-pole, this input is used to track the breaker phase B opened position as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1 C CLOSED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected
as single-pole, this input is used to track the breaker phase C closed position as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1 C OPENED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected
as single-pole, this input is used to track the breaker phase C opened position as above for phase A.
• BREAKER 1 Toperate: This setting specifies the required interval to overcome transient disagreement between the
52/a and 52/b auxiliary contacts during breaker operation. If transient disagreement still exists after this time has
expired, the BREAKER 1 BAD STATUS FlexLogic operand is asserted from alarm or blocking purposes.
• BREAKER 1 EXT ALARM: This setting selects an operand, usually an external contact input, connected to a breaker
alarm reporting contact.
• BREAKER 1 ALARM DELAY: This setting specifies the delay interval during which a disagreement of status among
the three-pole position tracking operands will not declare a pole disagreement. This allows for non-simultaneous oper-
ation of the poles.
• MANUAL CLOSE RECAL1 TIME: This setting specifies the interval required to maintain setting changes in effect after
an operator has initiated a manual close command to operate a circuit breaker.
• BREAKER 1 OUT OF SV: Selects an operand indicating that breaker 1 is out-of-service.

The disconnect switch element contains the auxiliary logic for status and serves as the interface for opening and closing of
disconnect switches from SCADA or through the front panel interface. The disconnect switch element can be used to cre-
ate an interlocking functionality. For greater security in determination of the switch pole position, both the 89/a and 89/b
auxiliary contacts are used with reporting of the discrepancy between them. The number of available disconnect switches
depends on the number of the CT/VT modules ordered with the L30.

auxiliary position tracking mechanism. This input should be a normally-open 89/a status input to create a logic 1 when
the disconnect switch is closed. If the SWITCH 1 MODE setting is selected as “3-Pole”, this setting selects a single input
as the operand used to track the disconnect switch open or closed position. If the mode is selected as “1-Pole”, the
input mentioned above is used to track phase A and the SWITCH 1 B and SWITCH 1 C settings select operands to
track phases B and C, respectively.
• SWTCH 1 A/3P OPND: This setting selects an operand, usually a contact input, that should be a normally-closed 89/
b status input to create a logic 1 when the disconnect switch is open. If a separate 89/b contact input is not available,
then an inverted 89/a status signal can be used.
• SWITCH 1 B CLOSED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as
single-pole, this input is used to track the disconnect switch phase B closed position as above for phase A.
• SWITCH 1 B OPENED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as
single-pole, this input is used to track the disconnect switch phase B opened position as above for phase A.
• SWITCH 1 C CLOSED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as
5 single-pole, this input is used to track the disconnect switch phase C closed position as above for phase A.
• SWITCH 1 C OPENED: If the mode is selected as three-pole, this setting has no function. If the mode is selected as
single-pole, this input is used to track the disconnect switch phase C opened position as above for phase A.
• SWITCH 1 Toperate: This setting specifies the required interval to overcome transient disagreement between the 89/a
and 89/b auxiliary contacts during disconnect switch operation. If transient disagreement still exists after this time has
expired, the SWITCH 1 BAD STATUS FlexLogic operand is asserted from alarm or blocking purposes.
• SWITCH 1 ALARM DELAY: This setting specifies the delay interval during which a disagreement of status among the
three-pole position tracking operands will not declare a pole disagreement. This allows for non-simultaneous operation
of the poles.

The relay using a given FlexCurve applies linear approximation for times between the user-entered points. Special
care must be applied when setting the two points that are close to the multiple of pickup of 1; that is, 0.98 pu and
NOTE
1.03 pu. It is recommended to set the two times to a similar value; otherwise, the linear approximation may result in
undesired behavior for the operating quantity that is close to 1.00 pu.
b) FLEXCURVE CONFIGURATION WITH ENERVISTA UR SETUP

The EnerVista UR Setup software allows for easy configuration and management of FlexCurves and their associated data
points. Prospective FlexCurves can be configured from a selection of standard curves to provide the best approximate fit,
then specific data points can be edited afterwards. Alternately, curve data can be imported from a specified file (.csv format)
by selecting the Import Data From EnerVista UR Setup setting.
Curves and data can be exported, viewed, and cleared by clicking the appropriate buttons. FlexCurves are customized by
editing the operating time (ms) values at pre-defined per-unit current multiples. Note that the pickup multiples start at zero
(implying the "reset time"), operating time below pickup, and operating time above pickup.
c) RECLOSER CURVE EDITING

Recloser curve selection is special in that recloser curves can be shaped into a composite curve with a minimum response
time and a fixed time above a specified pickup multiples. There are 41 recloser curve types supported. These definite oper-
ating times are useful to coordinate operating times, typically at higher currents and where upstream and downstream pro-
tective devices have different operating characteristics. The recloser curve configuration window shown below appears
when the Initialize From EnerVista UR Setup setting is set to “Recloser Curve” and the Initialize FlexCurve button is
clicked.
Multiplier: Scales (multiplies) the curve operating times
Addr: Adds the time specified in this field (in ms) to each
5
curve operating time value.
Minimum Response Time (MRT): If enabled, the MRT setting

defines the shortest operating time even if the curve suggests
a shorter time at higher current multiples. A composite operating
characteristic is effectively defined. For current multiples lower
than the intersection point, the curve dictates the operating time;
otherwise, the MRT does. An information message appears
when attempting to apply an MRT shorter than the minimum
curve time.
High Current Time: Allows the user to set a pickup multiple

from which point onwards the operating time is fixed. This is
normally only required at higher current levels. The HCT Ratio
defines the high current pickup multiple; the HCT defines the
operating time.
842721A1.CDR
Figure 5–26: RECLOSER CURVE INITIALIZATION

The multiplier and adder settings only affect the curve portion of the characteristic and not the MRT and HCT set-
tings. The HCT settings override the MRT settings for multiples of pickup greater than the HCT ratio.
NOTE

d) EXAMPLE
A composite curve can be created from the GE_111 standard with MRT = 200 ms and HCT initially disabled and then
enabled at eight (8) times pickup with an operating time of 30 ms. At approximately four (4) times pickup, the curve operat-
ing time is equal to the MRT and from then onwards the operating time remains at 200 ms (see below).
842719A1.CDR
Figure 5–27: COMPOSITE RECLOSER CURVE WITH HCT DISABLED

With the HCT feature enabled, the operating time reduces to 30 ms for pickup multiples exceeding 8 times pickup.
842720A1.CDR
Figure 5–28: COMPOSITE RECLOSER CURVE WITH HCT ENABLED

Configuring a composite curve with an increase in operating time at increased pickup multiples is not allowed. If this
is attempted, the EnerVista UR Setup software generates an error message and discards the proposed changes.

UR Synchrophasor Implementation
PHASORS are used within protection relays. If these phasors are referenced to a common time base they are referred to as
a SYNCHROPHASOR. A vastly improved method for tracking power system dynamic phenomena for improved power system
monitoring, protection, operation, and control can be realized if Synchrophasors from different locations within the power
system are networked to a central location.
The L30 offers PMU features over two communication standards, IEC61850-9-5 and IEEE C37.118. The figure shows com-
plete Synchrophasor implementation.
Figure 5–37: COMPLETE SYNCHROPHASOR IMPLEMENTATION

UR Implementation of IEC61850-90-5
Synchrophasor data as measured and calculated by phasor measurement units (PMUs) is very useful to assess the condi-
tion of the electrical power network. The IEEE C37.118 standards define synchrophasors and related message formats to
transmit synchrophasor data. Synchrophasor streaming via IEEE C37.118 has proven to work but the desire to have a
communication mechanism that is compliant with the concept of IEC 61850 has led to the development of IEC61850-90-5.
The IEC61850-90-5 standard defines the packet structure for multicast routing of streamed Sampled Value (SV) known as
R-SV.
Firmware versions 7.0 and above have a 90-5 based R-SV implementation equivalent in structure and configuration to that
of the existing C37.118 implementation of firmware version 6.0, that is, synchrophasor data at rates up to 60 Hz for meter-
ing and 120 Hz for protection class synchrophasors. The two figures below depict the general data flow for the generation
of synchrophasor data for IEC61850-90-5. In the first figure, when IEC61850-90-5 is selected all real and virtual sources
are available for the IEC61850-90-5 PMUs.

Firmware version 7.0 allows the N60 to support a maximum of four Logical Device PMUs (Logical Device 2 through 5) and
four aggregators (located in Logical Device 1 (LD1)), while other UR family members support one PMU and only one
aggregator. The control blocks for the aggregators are located in LD1. A 64 char LDName setting is provided, see figure
below..
Figure 5–38: N60 SUPPORT FOR FOUR LOGICAL DEVICE PMUS

5 The specifics of implementation by model number is summarized in the table below.
Table 5–10: IMPLEMENTATION BY MODEL NUMBER

D60, F60, G60, L30, 1 1 16
L90, T60
Precise time input to the relay from the international time standard, via either IRIG-B or PTP, is vital for correct syn-
chrophasor measurement and reporting. For IRIG-B, a DC level shift IRIG-B receiver must be used for the phasor
NOTE measurement unit to output proper synchrophasor values.

Depending on the applied filter, the Synchrophasors that are produced by PMUs are classified as either P (protection) or M
(Measurement) class Synchrophasors. Synchrophasors available within the UR that have no filtering applied are classified
as NONE which within the standard is classified as PRES OR UNKNOWN under the Calculation Method - ClcMth. Each
Logical Device PMU supports one MxxMMXU, MxxMSQI, PxxxMMXU , PxxxMSQI, NxxMMXU, and one NxxMSQI logical
node.
Figure 5–39: LOGICAL NODES SUPPORTED IN EACH LOGICAL DEVICE

The following is a summary of LNs that are in each Logical Device (LD2 through LD5):
- PxxxMMXU1 ClcMth = P-Class (Note Vaux is mapped to Vneut of MMXU)
- PxxxMSQI1 ClcMth = P-CLASS
5
- MxxMMXU1 ClcMth = M-Class (Note Vaux is mapped to Vneut of MMXU)
- MxxMSQI1 ClcMth = M-CLASS
- NxxMMXU1 ClcMth = M-Class (Note Vaux is mapped to Vneut of MMXU)
- NxxMSQI1 ClcMth = M-CLASS
- GGIO1 which contains 16 digital status indication points and 16 analog points. The Analog GGIO values are selectable
from any FlexAnalog value in the UR.
The Synchro Logical Nodes in an LD report at the same rate as set in the PMUn Basic Configuration setting. This is
reflected in the instantiation of the Data Object – SmpRate in the msvcb## of LLN0 in the LD1. SmpRate is a Read
NOTE Only Integer Status (INS).
When the first PMU from any LD is mapped into an aggregator, the aggregator inherits the Sample Rate (SmpRate) and
IEEC C37.118 Class (P or M) of that PMU. The value of the SmpRate DO in the Report Control Block is set based on the
value of the Sample Rate in the PMU. The Class of the Dataset are mapped into the MSVID of the Dataset (see text below
for the overall name of the MSVID). If other PMUs are mapped into the same aggregator with different Sample Rates or
from different classes, then a Self-Test error (DatSetErr) is set and dataset transmission is blocked.
A setting value – MSVID – is created with a maximum input range of 56 characters (=64 less 6 for the IDCode less 2 for the
Class).
The value of MSVID in the dataset is a concatenation of the aggregator IDCode and the MSVID setting value in the format:
MSVID-AggregatorIDCode-CLASS where CLASS is P, M, or N (for None) – depending on the Class of the first PMU
included in the Aggregator.
Synchrophasor Rectangular Format and Integer data types are NOT supported in IEC 61850-90-5 (only supported
with IEEE C37.118) and not to set — GGIO1 which contains 16 digital status indication points — aggregated as a
NOTE 16 bit bitstring and 16 analog points. The Analog GGIO values are selectable from any FlexAnalog value in the UR.
For version 7.0 and later the description fields for the phasors, analog and digital channels are populated with the
16 character name field provided within the Basic Configuration menu. Additionally, the names of the 16 binary
points are implemented as numbered descriptions — d1, d2, d3, and so on. The number of descriptions are equal
to the number of bits configured in the 16 bit digital status word.

All bitstrings less than or equal to 32 bits in length map into a 32 bit bitstring in an IEC 61850-90-5 dataset.
NOTE
The Value of the Nominal Frequency of the chassis is instantiated as a DO in LPHD of LD1. The value is named
HzNom and is an Integer Status (INS).
The UR also supports the option to apply no filtering to the synchrophasors. If no filtering is applied (PMU Class = None),
according to the standard the ClcMth attribute will be PRES. The semantic of the ClcMth used is not carried in the individual
DO and so it is recommended that one of letters of the prefix on the instantiated LNs be set to “P” or “M” accordingly in
order to differentiate. For version 7.0 only FCDA data is supported. The Implementation by Model Number table, see
above, describes the maximum size of each PMU data set for version 7.0 using FCDA data (non-structured data).
EXAMPLE: PROTECTION SYNCHROPHASORS DATA SET WITH REPORTING RATE 60 FRAMES/SECOND
This example gives the protection synchrophasors data set with a reporting rate of 60 frames per second (P60MMXU1).
See figure above, Logical Nodes Supported in Each Logical Device. This data or list of items, see figure below, is not avail-
able to the UR setup program but is available to be mapped by the user into a selected aggregator or aggregators dataset.
The logical device name – LDName - of each PMU LD will be a 64 character user setting. The C37.118 STN and IDCode is
to be mapped as a concatenated value in the (d)escription field of LPL CDC of the NamPlt DO in LLN0. The mapping is
implemented as STN-IDCode(text string).
From each PMU the user selects the phasor information of interest that is mapped into the selected aggregator datset(s).
For version 7.0 only FCDA data is supported.
Figure 5–40: DATA SET CREATED FROM USER SELECTED INTERNAL ITEMS

EXAMPLE: THE CREATION OF DIFFERENT DATA SETS

The aggregators allow the aggregation of phasors from multiple PMUs (with the same reporting rate) into a single custom
data set to optimize bandwidth when streaming.
Figure 5–41: EXAMPLE OF AGGREGATOR DATA SETS

CONFIGURATION EXAMPLE: CFG-2 BASED CONFIGURATION (USING IEC61850-90-5)
The L30 is expected to send the CFG-2 file (IEEE C37.118 config. file) upon request from the upstream synchrophasor 5
devices (e.g., P30) without stopping R-SV multicasting, see figure below. The primary domain controller (PDC) does not
need to use a stop/start data stream command if the UR protocol is set to IEC61850-90-5 prior to requesting the configura-
tion via CFG-2 (IEEE C37.118 config. file). The CFG-2 request from the P30 can be on TCP/IP or UDP/IP, however, R-SV
data streaming is only UDP multicasts (not TCP).
Figure 5–42: CFG-2 BASED CONFIGURATION SOLUTION

MODIFICATION OF SYNC WORD IN CFG-2 FOR TR 90-5 DATA SETS

In the CFG-2 file, all relevant information about the data being streamed is included. However, this file does not include the
fact that it describes a 90-5 dataset or the number of Application Service Data Units (datasets). In order to communicate
this information via the CFG-2 file for a given aggregator, when the aggregator is set to 90-5, the version number of the
CFG-2 file (found in bits 0-3 of the frame SYNC word - which should presently be set to 2) is set as follows:

 CONFIGURATION
This section contains basic phasor measurement unit (PMU) data, such as functions, source settings, and names.
• PMU 1 FUNCTION: This setting enables the LOGICAL Device PMU 1 functionality. Use this setting to permanently
enable or disable the feature.
• PMU 1 IDCODE: This setting assigns a numerical ID to the PMU. It corresponds to the IDCODE field of the data, con-
figuration, header, and command frames of the IEEE C37.118 protocol. The PMU uses this value when sending data,
configuration, and header frames; and it responds to this value when receiving the command frame. This is used when
only data from one PMU is present.
• PMU 1 STN: This setting assigns an alphanumeric ID to the PMU station. It corresponds to the STN field of the config-
uration frame of the IEEE C37.118 protocol. This value is a 16-character ASCII string as per the IEEE C37.118 stan-
dard.
• PMU 1 SIGNAL SOURCE: This setting specifies one of the available L30 signal sources for processing in the PMU.
Note that any combination of voltages and currents can be configured as a source. The current channels could be con-
figured as sums of physically connected currents. This facilitates PMU applications in breaker-and-a-half, ring-bus, and
similar arrangements. The PMU feature calculates voltage phasors for actual voltage (A, B, C, and auxiliary) and cur-
rent (A, B, C, and ground) channels of the source, as well as symmetrical components (0, 1, and 2) of both voltages
5 and currents. When configuring communication and recording features of the PMU, the user could select – from the
above superset – the content to be sent out or recorded. When one source is selected by one PMU, it cannot be
selected by another PMU.
• PMU 1 CLASS (Range P, M, None): This setting selects the synchrophasor class. Note that a reporting rate of 100 or
120 can only be selected for class P synchrophasors and if the system frequency is 50 Hz or 60 Hz, respectively.
• PMU 1 NETWORK REPORTING FORMAT: This setting selects whether synchrophasors are reported as 16-bit inte-
gers or 32-bit IEEE floating point numbers. This setting complies with bit-1 of the FORMAT field of the IEEE C37.118
configuration frame. This setting applies to synchrophasors only; the user-selectable FlexAnalog channels are always
transmitted as 16-bit integer values.
• PMU 1 NETWORK REPORTING STYLE: This setting selects whether synchrophasors are reported in rectangular
(real and imaginary) coordinates or in polar (magnitude and angle) coordinates. This setting complies with bit-0 of the
FORMAT field of the IEEE C37.118 configuration frame.
• PMU 1 RATE: This setting specifies the reporting rate for the network (Ethernet) port. This value applies to all PMU
streams of the device that are assigned to transmit over this aggregator. For a system frequency of 60 Hz (50 Hz), the
L30 generates a reporting mismatch message if the selected rate is not set as 10 Hz, 12 Hz, 15 Hz, 20 Hz, 30 Hz,
60 Hz, or 120 Hz (or 10 Hz, 25 Hz, 50 Hz or 100 Hz when the system frequency is 50 Hz) when entered via the keypad
or software; and the L30 stops the transmission of reports. Note that 4 Hz is not allowed for an M-class 50 Hz system).

• PMU1 PHS-1 to PMU1 PHS-14: These settings specify synchrophasors to be transmitted from the superset of all syn-
chronized measurements. The available synchrophasor values are tabulated below.
SELECTION MEANING
Va First voltage channel, either Va or Vab
Vb Second voltage channel, either Vb or Vbc
Vc Third voltage channel, either Vc or Vca
Vx Fourth voltage channel
Ia Phase A current, physical channel or summation as per the source settings
Ib Phase B current, physical channel or summation as per the source settings
Ic Phase C current, physical channel or summation as per the source settings
Ig Fourth current channel, physical or summation as per the source settings
V1 Positive-sequence voltage, referenced to Va
V2 Negative-sequence voltage, referenced to Va
V0 Zero-sequence voltage
I1 Positive-sequence current, referenced to Ia
I2 Negative-sequence current, referenced to Ia
I0 Zero-sequence current
These settings allow for optimizing the frame size and maximizing transmission channel usage, depending on a given
application. Select “Off” to suppress transmission of a given value.
• PMU1 PHS-1 NM to PMU1 PHS-14 NM: These settings allow for custom naming of the synchrophasor channels. Six-
teen-character ASCII strings are allowed as in the CHNAM field of the configuration frame. These names are typically
based on station, bus, or breaker names.
5
• PMU1 A-CH-1 to PMU1 A-CH-16: These settings specify any analog data measured by the relay to be included as a
user-selectable analog channel of the data frame. Up to 16 analog channels can be configured to send any FlexAnalog
value from the relay. Examples include frequency, rate of frequency change, active and reactive power, per phase or
three-phase power, power factor, temperature via RTD inputs, and THD. The configured analog values are sampled
concurrently with the synchrophasor instant and sent as 32-bit floating-point values scaled to Engineering units.
• PMU1 A-CH-1 NM to PMU1 A-CH-16 NM: These settings allow for custom naming of the analog channels. Sixteen-
character ASCII strings are allowed as in the CHNAM field of the configuration frame.
• PMU1 D-CH-1 to PMU1 D-CH-16: These settings specify any digital flag measured by the relay to be included as a
user-selectable digital channel of the data frame. Up to sixteen digital channels can be configured to send any Flex-
Logic operand from the relay. The configured digital flags are sampled concurrently with the synchrophasor instant.
These values are mapped into a two-byte integer number, with byte 1 LSB corresponding to the digital channel 1and
byte 2 MSB corresponding to digital channel 16.
• PMU1 D-CH-1 NM to PMU1 D-CH-16 NM: These settings allow for custom naming of the digital channels. Sixteen-
character ASCII strings are allowed as in the CHNAM field of the configuration frame.
• PMU1 D-CH-1 NORMAL STATE to PMU1 D-CH-16 NORMAL STATE: These settings allow for specifying a normal
state for each digital channel. These states are transmitted in configuration frames to the data concentrator.

PMU 1 FORMAT: This setting selects whether synchrophasors are reported as 16-bit integers or 32-bit IEEE floating point
numbers. This setting complies with bit-1 of the FORMAT field of the IEEE C37.118 configuration frame. This setting
applies to synchrophasors only; the user-selectable FlexAnalog channels are always transmitted as 16-bit integer values.

PMU 1 STYLE: This setting selects whether synchrophasors are reported in rectangular (real and imaginary) coordinates
or in polar (magnitude and angle) coordinates. This setting complies with bit-0 of the FORMAT field of the IEEE C37.118
configuration frame.
With 90-5 PMU, the FORMAT and STYLE are Floating-point and Polar respectively, as specified in the IEC 61850
standard.

This menu contains user angle and magnitude calibration data for the phasor measurement unit (PMU). This data is com-
bined with the factory adjustments to shift the phasors for better accuracy.
• PMU 1 VA... IG CALIBRATION ANGLE: These settings recognize applications with protection class voltage and cur-
rent sources, and allow the user to calibrate each channel (four voltages and four currents) individually to offset errors
introduced by VTs, CTs, and cabling. The setting values are effectively added to the measured angles. Therefore, enter
a positive correction of the secondary signal lags the true signal; and negative value if the secondary signal leads the
true signal.

• PMU 1 VA... IG CALIBRATION MAGNITUDE: These settings recognize applications with protection class voltage and
current sources, and allow the user to calibrate each channel (four voltages and four currents) individually to offset
errors introduced by VTs, CTs. The setting values are effectively a multiplier of the measured magnitudes. Therefore,
enter a multiplier greater than 100% of the secondary signal increases the true signal; and a multiplier less than 100%
value of the secondary signal reduces the true signal.
• PMU 1 SEQ VOLT SHIFT ANGLE: This setting allows correcting positive- and negative-sequence voltages for vector
groups of power transformers located between the PMU voltage point, and the reference node. This angle is effectively
added to the positive-sequence voltage angle, and subtracted from the negative-sequence voltage angle. Note that:
1. When this setting is not “0°”, the phase and sequence voltages will not agree. Unlike sequence voltages, the
phase voltages cannot be corrected in a general case, and therefore are reported as measured.
2. When receiving synchrophasor data at multiple locations, with possibly different reference nodes, it can be more
beneficial to allow the central locations to perform the compensation of sequence voltages.
3. This setting applies to PMU data only. The L30 calculates symmetrical voltages independently for protection and
control purposes without applying this correction.
4. When connected to line-to-line voltages, the PMU calculates symmetrical voltages with the reference to the AG
voltage, and not to the physically connected AB voltage (see the Metering Conventions section in Chapter 6).
• PMU 1 SEQ CURR SHIFT ANGLE: This setting allows correcting positive and negative-sequence currents for vector
groups of power transformers located between the PMU current point and the reference node. The setting has the
same meaning for currents as the PMU 1 SEQ VOLT SHIFT ANGLE setting has for voltages. Normally, the two correcting
angles are set identically, except rare applications when the voltage and current measuring points are located at differ-
ent windings of a power transformer.

Each logical phasor measurement unit (PMU) contains five triggering mechanisms to facilitate triggering of the associated
PMU recorder, or cross-triggering of other PMUs of the system. They are:
• Overfrequency and underfrequency
• Overvoltage and undervoltage
• Overcurrent
• Overpower
• High rate of change of frequency
The pre-configured triggers could be augmented with a user-specified condition built freely using programmable logic of the
relay. The entire triggering logic is refreshed once every two power system cycles.

All five triggering functions and the user-definable condition are consolidated (ORed) and connected to the PMU recorder.
Each trigger can be programmed to log its operation into the event recorder, and to signal its operation via targets. The five
triggers drive the STAT bits of the data frame to inform the destination of the synchrophasor data regarding the cause of
trigger. The following convention is adopted to drive bits 11, 3, 2, 1, and 0 of the STAT word.
Figure 5–43: STAT BITS LOGIC

The trigger reset (drop-off) timer is available for all five triggering functions (FREQ, ROCOF, VOLT, CURR, POWER) in indi-
vidual trigger settings under the TRIGGER DPO TIME setting. This asserts individual trigger operand and overall PMU x
TRIGGERED operand with stat bits 3 and 11 for a fixed interval defined by this setting. If it is required that PMU x TRIG-
GERED operand with stat bits 3 and 11 stay longer than the individual reset timer, then use the PMU x USER TRIGGER
setting assigned with appropriate elements and FlexLogic. In short, in case of USER TRIGGER, the drop-off time needs to
be implemented using FlexLogic.

The trigger responds to the frequency signal of the phasor measurement unit (PMU) source. The frequency is calculated
from either phase voltages, auxiliary voltage, phase currents and ground current, in this hierarchy, depending on the source
configuration as per L30 standards. This element requires the frequency is above the minimum measurable value. If the
frequency is below this value, such as when the circuit is de-energized, the trigger drops out.
• PMU 1 FREQ TRIGGER LOW-FREQ: This setting specifies the low threshold for the abnormal frequency trigger. The
comparator applies a 0.02 Hz hysteresis.
• PMU 1 FREQ TRIGGER HIGH-FREQ: This setting specifies the high threshold for the abnormal frequency trigger. The
comparator applies a 0.02 Hz hysteresis.
• PMU 1 FREQ TRIGGER PKP TIME: This setting could be used to filter out spurious conditions and avoid unnecessary
triggering of the recorder.
• PMU 1 FREQ TRIGGER DPO TIME: This setting could be used to extend the trigger after the situation returned to nor-
mal. This setting is of particular importance when using the recorder in the forced mode (recording as long as the trig-
gering condition is asserted).

This element responds to abnormal voltage. Separate thresholds are provided for low and high voltage. In terms of signal-
ing its operation, the element does not differentiate between the undervoltage and overvoltage events. The trigger
responds to the phase voltage signal of the phasor measurement unit (PMU) source. All voltage channels (A, B, and C or
AB, BC, and CA) are processed independently and could trigger the recorder. A minimum voltage supervision of 0.1 pu is

This element responds to abnormal power. Separate thresholds are provided for active, reactive, and apparent powers. In
terms of signaling its operation the element does not differentiate between the three types of power. The trigger responds to
the single-phase and three-phase power signals of the phasor measurement unit (PMU) source.
• PMU 1 POWER TRIGGER ACTIVE: This setting specifies the pickup threshold for the active power of the source. For
single-phase power, 1 pu is a product of 1 pu voltage and 1 pu current, or the product of nominal secondary voltage,
the VT ratio and the nominal primary current. For the three-phase power, 1 pu is three times that for a single-phase
power in case of wye-connected VTs and 3 times in case of delta-connected VTs. The comparator applies a 3% hys-
teresis.

• PMU 1 POWER TRIGGER REACTIVE: This setting specifies the pickup threshold for the reactive power of the
source. For single-phase power, 1 pu is a product of 1 pu voltage and 1 pu current, or the product of nominal second-
ary voltage, the VT ratio and the nominal primary current. For the three-phase power, 1 pu is three times that for a sin-
gle-phase power in case of wye-connected VTs and 3 times in case of delta-connected VTs. The comparator applies
a 3% hysteresis.

supports 16 FlexLogic operands as shown in table 2. The operands are asserted for 5 seconds following reception of
the command frame. If the new command frame arrives within the 5 second period, the FlexLogic operands are
updated, and the 5 second timer is re-started. This setting enables or disables the control. When enabled, all 16 oper-

• MSVCB 1 SVENA: The SV Stream Control is set by either toggling an assigned FlexLogic operand or a remote client
write, to start and stop the streaming of R-SV frames. If remote client control is disabled, a negative response is pro-
vided to the client in response to a write attempt. A FlexLogic operand (SvEna) is provided for each Aggregator that

reflects the state of the SvEna control where “1”= Enabled and “0”=Disabled. The logic for setting the SvEna control bit
is shown in the following figure.
Figure 5–49: LOGIC FOR SETTING SVENA CONTROL BIT

• MSVCB 1 Client CONTRL: This setting determines if a client can write to the reserve bit. When the assigned Flex-
Logic operand is a logic 1 state, remote clients can write to both the reserve bit and the SvEna bit. When the FlexLogic
operand is a logic 0 state, the remote client writes to the reserve bit, the SvEna is rejected by the UR, and a negative
response with the appropriate Service Error is returned to the client.

5.5FLEXLOGIC 5.5.1 INTRODUCTION TO FLEXLOGIC
To provide maximum flexibility to the user, the arrangement of internal digital logic combines fixed and user-programmed
parameters. Logic upon which individual features are designed is fixed, and all other logic, from digital input signals through
elements or combinations of elements to digital outputs, is variable. The user has complete control of all variable logic
through FlexLogic. In general, the system receives analog and digital inputs which it uses to produce analog and digital out-
puts. The major sub-systems of a generic UR-series relay involved in this process are shown below.
Figure 5–50: UR ARCHITECTURE OVERVIEW

The states of all digital signals used in the L30 are represented by flags (or FlexLogic operands, which are described later
in this section). A digital “1” is represented by a 'set' flag. Any external contact change-of-state can be used to block an ele-
ment from operating, as an input to a control feature in a FlexLogic equation, or to operate a contact output. The state of the
contact input can be displayed locally or viewed remotely via the communications facilities provided. If a simple scheme
where a contact input is used to block an element is desired, this selection is made when programming the element. This
capability also applies to the other features that set flags: elements, virtual inputs, remote inputs, schemes, and human
operators.
If more complex logic than presented above is required, it is implemented via FlexLogic. For example, if it is desired to have
the closed state of contact input H7a and the operated state of the phase undervoltage element block the operation of the
phase time overcurrent element, the two control input states are programmed in a FlexLogic equation. This equation ANDs
the two control inputs to produce a virtual output which is then selected when programming the phase time overcurrent to
be used as a blocking input. Virtual outputs can only be created by FlexLogic equations.
Traditionally, protective relay logic has been relatively limited. Any unusual applications involving interlocks, blocking, or
supervisory functions had to be hard-wired using contact inputs and outputs. FlexLogic minimizes the requirement for aux-
iliary components and wiring while making more complex schemes possible.

5.5 FLEXLOGIC 5 SETTINGS
The logic that determines the interaction of inputs, elements, schemes and outputs is field programmable through the use
of logic equations that are sequentially processed. The use of virtual inputs and outputs in addition to hardware is available
internally and on the communication ports for other relays to use (distributed FlexLogic).
FlexLogic allows users to customize the relay through a series of equations that consist of operators and operands. The
operands are the states of inputs, elements, schemes and outputs. The operators are logic gates, timers and latches (with
set and reset inputs). A system of sequential operations allows any combination of specified operands to be assigned as
inputs to specified operators to create an output. The final output of an equation is a numbered register called a virtual out-
put. Virtual outputs can be used as an input operand in any equation, including the equation that generates the output, as a
seal-in or other type of feedback.
A FlexLogic equation consists of parameters that are either operands or operators. Operands have a logic state of 1 or 0.
Operators provide a defined function, such as an AND gate or a Timer. Each equation defines the combinations of parame-
ters to be used to set a Virtual Output flag. Evaluation of an equation results in either a 1 (=ON, i.e. flag set) or 0 (=OFF, i.e.
flag not set). Each equation is evaluated at least 4 times every power system cycle.
Some types of operands are present in the relay in multiple instances; e.g. contact and remote inputs. These types of oper-
ands are grouped together (for presentation purposes only) on the faceplate display. The characteristics of the different
types of operands are listed in the table below.

5.5.2 FLEXLOGIC RULES
When forming a FlexLogic equation, the sequence in the linear array of parameters must follow these general rules:
1. Operands must precede the operator which uses the operands as inputs.
2. Operators have only one output. The output of an operator must be used to create a virtual output if it is to be used as
an input to two or more operators.
3. Assigning the output of an operator to a virtual output terminates the equation.
4. A timer operator (for example, "TIMER 1") or virtual output assignment (for example, " = Virt Op 1") may only be used
once. If this rule is broken, a syntax error will be declared.
5.5.3 FLEXLOGIC EVALUATION
Each equation is evaluated in the order in which the parameters have been entered.
FlexLogic provides latches which by definition have a memory action, remaining in the set state after the set input
has been asserted. However, they are volatile; that is, they reset on the re-application of control power.
NOTE
When making changes to settings, all FlexLogic equations are re-compiled whenever any new setting value is
entered, so all latches are automatically reset. If it is necessary to re-initialize FlexLogic during testing, for example,
it is suggested to power the unit down and then back up.

5.5.4 FLEXLOGIC EXAMPLE
This section provides an example of implementing logic for a typical application. The sequence of the steps is quite impor-
tant as it should minimize the work necessary to develop the relay settings. Note that the example presented in the figure
below is intended to demonstrate the procedure, not to solve a specific application situation.
In the example below, it is assumed that logic has already been programmed to produce virtual outputs 1 and 2, and is only
a part of the full set of equations used. When using FlexLogic, it is important to make a note of each virtual output used – a
virtual output designation (1 to 96) can only be properly assigned once.

Figure 5–51: EXAMPLE LOGIC SCHEME

1. Inspect the example logic diagram to determine if the required logic can be implemented with the FlexLogic operators.
If this is not possible, the logic must be altered until this condition is satisfied. Once this is done, count the inputs to
5
each gate to verify that the number of inputs does not exceed the FlexLogic limits, which is unlikely but possible. If the
number of inputs is too high, subdivide the inputs into multiple gates to produce an equivalent. For example, if 25
inputs to an AND gate are required, connect Inputs 1 through 16 to AND(16), 17 through 25 to AND(9), and the outputs
from these two gates to AND(2).
Inspect each operator between the initial operands and final virtual outputs to determine if the output from the operator
is used as an input to more than one following operator. If so, the operator output must be assigned as a virtual output.
For the example shown above, the output of the AND gate is used as an input to both OR#1 and Timer 1, and must
therefore be made a virtual output and assigned the next available number (i.e. Virtual Output 3). The final output must
also be assigned to a virtual output as virtual output 4, which will be programmed in the contact output section to oper-
ate relay H1 (that is, contact output H1).
Therefore, the required logic can be implemented with two FlexLogic equations with outputs of virtual output 3 and vir-
tual output 4 as shown below.

2. Prepare a logic diagram for the equation to produce virtual output 3, as this output will be used as an operand in the
virtual output 4 equation (create the equation for every output that will be used as an operand first, so that when these
operands are required they will already have been evaluated and assigned to a specific virtual output). The logic for
virtual output 3 is shown below with the final output assigned.

4. Program the FlexLogic equation for virtual output 3 by translating the logic into available FlexLogic parameters. The
equation is formed one parameter at a time until the required logic is complete. It is generally easier to start at the out-
put end of the equation and work back towards the input, as shown in the following steps. It is also recommended to list
operator inputs from bottom to top. For demonstration, the final output will be arbitrarily identified as parameter 99, and
each preceding parameter decremented by one in turn. Until accustomed to using FlexLogic, it is suggested that a
worksheet with a series of cells marked with the arbitrary parameter numbers be prepared, as shown below.

827029A1.VSD
Figure 5–55: FLEXLOGIC WORKSHEET

5. Following the procedure outlined, start with parameter 99, as follows:
99: The final output of the equation is virtual output 3, which is created by the operator "= Virt Op n". This parameter is
therefore "= Virt Op 3."

98: The gate preceding the output is an AND, which in this case requires two inputs. The operator for this gate is a 2-
input AND so the parameter is “AND(2)”. Note that FlexLogic rules require that the number of inputs to most types
of operators must be specified to identify the operands for the gate. As the 2-input AND will operate on the two
operands preceding it, these inputs must be specified, starting with the lower.
97: This lower input to the AND gate must be passed through an inverter (the NOT operator) so the next parameter is
“NOT”. The NOT operator acts upon the operand immediately preceding it, so specify the inverter input next.
96: The input to the NOT gate is to be contact input H1c. The ON state of a contact input can be programmed to be
set when the contact is either open or closed. Assume for this example the state is to be ON for a closed contact.
The operand is therefore “Cont Ip H1c On”.
95: The last step in the procedure is to specify the upper input to the AND gate, the operated state of digital element 2.
This operand is "DIG ELEM 2 OP".
Writing the parameters in numerical order can now form the equation for virtual output 3:
[95] DIG ELEM 2 OP
[96] Cont Ip H1c On
[97] NOT
[98] AND(2)
[99] = Virt Op 3
It is now possible to check that this selection of parameters will produce the required logic by converting the set of parame-
ters into a logic diagram. The result of this process is shown below, which is compared to the logic for virtual output 3 dia-
gram as a check.

6. Repeating the process described for virtual output 3, select the FlexLogic parameters for Virtual Output 4.
99: The final output of the equation is virtual output 4 which is parameter “= Virt Op 4".
98: The operator preceding the output is timer 2, which is operand “TIMER 2". Note that the settings required for the
timer are established in the timer programming section.
97: The operator preceding timer 2 is OR #2, a 3-input OR, which is parameter “OR(3)”.
96: The lowest input to OR #2 is operand “Cont Ip H1c On”.
95: The center input to OR #2 is operand “TIMER 1".
94: The input to timer 1 is operand “Virt Op 3 On".
93: The upper input to OR #2 is operand “LATCH (S,R)”.
92: There are two inputs to a latch, and the input immediately preceding the latch reset is OR #1, a 4-input OR, which
is parameter “OR(4)”.
91: The lowest input to OR #1 is operand “Virt Op 3 On".
90: The input just above the lowest input to OR #1 is operand “XOR(2)”.
89: The lower input to the XOR is operand “DIG ELEM 1 PKP”.
88: The upper input to the XOR is operand “Virt Ip 1 On".
87: The input just below the upper input to OR #1 is operand “Virt Op 2 On".
86: The upper input to OR #1 is operand “Virt Op 1 On".
85: The last parameter is used to set the latch, and is operand “Virt Op 4 On".

The equation for virtual output 4 is:

[85] Virt Op 4 On
[86] Virt Op 1 On
[87] Virt Op 2 On
[88] Virt Ip 1 On
[89] DIG ELEM 1 PKP

ters into a logic diagram. The result of this process is shown below, which is compared to the logic for virtual output 4 dia-
gram as a check.

7. Now write the complete FlexLogic expression required to implement the logic, making an effort to assemble the equa-
tion in an order where Virtual Outputs that will be used as inputs to operators are created before needed. In cases
where a lot of processing is required to perform logic, this may be difficult to achieve, but in most cases will not cause
problems as all logic is calculated at least four times per power frequency cycle. The possibility of a problem caused by
sequential processing emphasizes the necessity to test the performance of FlexLogic before it is placed in service.
In the following equation, virtual output 3 is used as an input to both latch 1 and timer 1 as arranged in the order shown
below:
DIG ELEM 2 OP
Cont Ip H1c On
NOT
AND(2)

= Virt Op 3
Virt Op 4 On
Virt Op 1 On
Virt Op 2 On
Virt Ip 1 On

Virt Op 3 On
OR(4)
LATCH (S,R)
Virt Op 3 On
TIMER 1
Cont Ip H1c On
OR(3)
TIMER 2
= Virt Op 4
END
In the expression above, the virtual output 4 input to the four-input OR is listed before it is created. This is typical of a
form of feedback, in this case, used to create a seal-in effect with the latch, and is correct.
8. The logic should always be tested after it is loaded into the relay, in the same fashion as has been used in the past.
Testing can be simplified by placing an "END" operator within the overall set of FlexLogic equations. The equations will
then only be evaluated up to the first "END" operator.
The "On" and "Off" operands can be placed in an equation to establish a known set of conditions for test purposes, and
the "INSERT" and "DELETE" commands can be used to modify equations.

A FlexElement is a universal comparator that can be used to monitor any analog actual value calculated by the relay or a
net difference of any two analog actual values of the same type. The effective operating signal could be treated as a signed
number or its absolute value could be used as per user's choice.
The element can be programmed to respond either to a signal level or to a rate-of-change (delta) over a pre-defined period
of time. The output operand is asserted when the operating signal is higher than a threshold or lower than a threshold as
per user's choice.

The FLEXELEMENT 1 +IN setting specifies the first (non-inverted) input to the FlexElement. Zero is assumed as the input if
this setting is set to “Off”. For proper operation of the element at least one input must be selected. Otherwise, the element
will not assert its output operands.

This FLEXELEMENT 1 –IN setting specifies the second (inverted) input to the FlexElement. Zero is assumed as the input if
this setting is set to “Off”. For proper operation of the element at least one input must be selected. Otherwise, the element
will not assert its output operands. This input should be used to invert the signal if needed for convenience, or to make the
element respond to a differential signal such as for a top-bottom oil temperature differential alarm. The element will not
operate if the two input signals are of different types, for example if one tries to use active power and phase angle to build
the effective operating signal.
The element responds directly to the differential signal if the FLEXELEMENT 1 INPUT MODE setting is set to “Signed”. The ele-
ment responds to the absolute value of the differential signal if this setting is set to “Absolute”. Sample applications for the
“Absolute” setting include monitoring the angular difference between two phasors with a symmetrical limit angle in both
directions; monitoring power regardless of its direction, or monitoring a trend regardless of whether the signal increases of
decreases.
The element responds directly to its operating signal – as defined by the FLEXELEMENT 1 +IN, FLEXELEMENT 1 –IN and FLEX-
ELEMENT 1 INPUT MODE settings – if the FLEXELEMENT 1 COMP MODE setting is set to “Level”. The element responds to the
rate of change of its operating signal if the FLEXELEMENT 1 COMP MODE setting is set to “Delta”. In this case the FLEXELE-
MENT 1 dt UNIT and FLEXELEMENT 1 dt settings specify how the rate of change is derived.
The FLEXELEMENT 1 DIRECTION setting enables the relay to respond to either high or low values of the operating signal. The
following figure explains the application of the FLEXELEMENT 1 DIRECTION, FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP and FLEXELEMENT 1 HYS-

The FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP setting specifies the operating threshold for the effective operating signal of the element. If set
to “Over”, the element picks up when the operating signal exceeds the FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP value. If set to “Under”, the
element picks up when the operating signal falls below the FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP value.
The FLEXELEMENT 1 HYSTERESIS setting controls the element dropout. It should be noticed that both the operating signal

5.6GROUPED ELEMENTS 5.6.1 OVERVIEW
Each protection element can be assigned up to six different sets of settings according to setting group designations 1 to 6.
The performance of these elements is defined by the active setting group at a given time. Multiple setting groups allow the
user to conveniently change protection settings for different operating situations (for example, altered power system config-
uration, season of the year, etc.). The active setting group can be preset or selected via the SETTING GROUPS menu (see the
Control elements section later in this chapter). See also the Introduction to elements section at the beginning of this chap-

The following settings are available for current differential protection.

• CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 1: This setting selects the first source for the current differential element local
operating current. If more than one source is configured, the other source currents are scaled to the CT with the maxi-
mum primary current assigned by the CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 1 to CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 4 settings. This
source is mandatory and is assigned with the SYSTEM SETUP  SIGNAL SOURCES  SOURCE 1 menu.

• CURRENT DIFF BLOCK: This setting selects a FlexLogic operand to block the operation of the current differential ele-
ment.
• CURRENT DIFF PICKUP: This setting is used to select current differential pickup value.
• CURRENT DIFF CT TAP 1 and CURRENT DIFF CT TAP 2: These settings adapt the remote terminal 1 or 2 (commu-
nication channel 1 and 2 respectively) CT ratio to the local ratio if the CT ratios for the local and remote terminals differ.
In 2-terminal, two-channel applications use the same value for both TAP 1 and TAP 2 settings, and in 3-terminals
accordingly remote 1 and 2 CTs. The setting value is determined by CTprim_rem / CTprim_loc for local and remote termi-
nal CTs (where CTprim_rem / CTprim_loc is referred to as the CT primary rated current). Ratio matching must always be
performed against the remote CT with the maximum CT primary defined by the CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 1
through CURRENT DIFF SIGNAL SOURCE 4 settings. See the Current differential settings example in the Application of
settings chapter for additional details.
When in-zone power transformer is present, this setting should be calculated and used by taking into account the in-
zone power transformer as follows.
CT prim_rem  V prim_rem
CT Tap = -------------------------------------------------------- for remote terminals 1 and 2, respecitvely (EQ 5.9)
CT prim_loc  V prim_loc
In this equation, Vprim_rem is primary nominal voltage of the transformer winding at the remote terminal and Vprim_loc is
primary nominal voltage of the transformer winding at the local terminal.
• CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 1 and CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 2: These settings select the bias characteristic for
the first and second slope, respectively.
• CURRENT DIFF BREAK PT: This setting is used to select an intersection point between the two slopes.
• INRUSH INHIBIT MODE: This setting selects the mode for blocking differential protection during magnetizing inrush
conditions. Modern transformers can produce small second harmonic ratios during inrush conditions. This can result
undesired tripping of the protected line. Reducing the second harmonic inhibit threshold may jeopardize dependability 5
and speed of differential protection. When low, the second harmonic ratio causes problems in one phase only. This
may be utilized as a mean to ensure security by applying cross-phase blocking rather than lowering the inrush inhibit
threshold.
– If set to “Disabled”, no inrush inhibit action is taken.
– If set to “Per phase”, the L30 performs inrush inhibit individually in each phase.
– If set to “2-out-of-3”, the L30 checks second harmonic level in all three phases individually. If any two phases
establish an inhibiting condition, then the remaining phase is restrained automatically.
– If set to “Average”, the L30 first calculates the average second harmonic ratio, then applies the inrush threshold to
the calculated average.
• INRUSH INHIBIT LEVEL: This setting specifies the level of second harmonic component in the transformer magnetiz-
ing inrush current, above which the current differential element is inhibited from operating. The value of the INRUSH
INHIBIT MODE setting must be taken into account when programming this value. This setting is typically programmed as
“20% f0“.
• CURRENT DIFF GND FUNCTION: This setting enables and disabled the 87LG neutral differential element, which may
be used to detect high-resistive faults. This element uses restrained characteristics to cope with spurious zero-
sequence current during system unbalance and signal distortions. The differential neutral current is calculated as the
vector sum of all in-zone CT input neutral currents. The restraint current is derived as the maximum of phase currents
from all terminals flowing through any individual CT, including breaker-and-a-half configurations. The 87LG neutral dif-
ferential element is blocked when the phase current at any terminal is greater than 3 pu, since the phase differential
element should operate for internal faults. To correctly derive the restraint quantity from the maximum through current
at any terminal, it is important that the 87L phase-segregated differential pickup and slope settings are equal at all ter-
minals. Refer to the Applications of settings chapter for additional details.
• CURRENT DIFF GND PICKUP: This setting specifies the pickup threshold for neutral current differential element.
• CURRENT DIFF GND RESTRAINT: This setting specifies the bias characteristic for the neutral current differential ele-
ment.
• CURRENT DIFF GND DELAY: This setting specifies the operation delay for the neutral current differential element.
Since this element is used to detect high-resistive faults where fault currents are relatively low, high-speed operation is

usually not critical. This delay will provide security against spurious neutral current during switch-off transients and
external fault clearing.
• CURRENT DIFF DTT: This setting enables and disables the sending of a DTT by the current differential element on
per single-phase basis to remote devices. To allow the L30 to restart from master-master to master-slave mode (very
important on three-terminal applications), CURR DIFF DTT must be set to “Enabled”.
• CURRENT DIFF KEY DTT: This setting selects an additional protection element (besides the current differential ele-
ment; for example, distance element or breaker failure) which keys the DTT on a per three-phase basis.
For the current differential element to function properly, it is imperative that all L30 devices on the protected line
have exactly identical firmware revisions. For example, revision 5.62 in only compatible with 5.62, not 5.61 or 5.63.

The stub bus element protects for faults between two breakers in a breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configuration when the
line disconnect switch is open. At the same time, if the line is still energized through the remote terminal(s), differential pro-
tection is still required (the line may still need to be energized because there is a tapped load on a two terminal line or
because the line is a three terminal line with two of the terminals still connected). Correct operation for this condition is
achieved by the local relay sending zero current values to the remote end(s) so that a local bus fault does not result in trip-
ping the line. At the local end, the differential element is disabled and stub bus protection is provided by a user-selected
overcurrent element. If there is a line fault, the remote end(s) will trip on differential but local differential function and DTT
signal (if enabled) to the local end, will be blocked by the stub bus logic allowing the local breakers to remain closed.
• STUB BUS FUNCTION: There are three requirements for stub bus operation: the element must be enabled, an indica-
5 tion that the line disconnect is open, and the STUB BUS TRIGGER setting is set as indicated below. There are two meth-
ods of setting the stub bus trigger and thus setting up stub bus operation:
1. If STUB BUS TRIGGER is “On”, the STUB BUS OPERATE operand picks up as soon as the disconnect switch opens,
causing zero currents to be transmitted to remote end(s) and DTT receipt from remote end(s) to be permanently
blocked. An overcurrent element, blocked by disconnect switch closed, provides protection for the local bus.
2. An alternate method is to set STUB BUS TRIGGER to be the pickup of an assigned instantaneous overcurrent ele-
ment. The instantaneous overcurrent element must operate quickly enough to pick up the STUB BUS OPERATE
operand, disable the local differential, and send zero currents to the other terminal(s). If the bus minimum fault cur-
rent is above five times the instantaneous overcurrent pickup, tests have confirmed that the STUB BUS OPERATE
operand always pick up correctly for a stub bus fault and prevents tripping of the remote terminal. If minimum stub
bus fault current is below this value, then method 1 should be used. Note also that correct testing of stub bus oper-
ation, when this method is used, requires sudden injection of a fault currents above five times instantaneous over-
current pickup. The assigned current element should be mapped to appropriate output contact(s) to trip the stub
bus breakers. It should be blocked unless disconnect is open. To prevent 87L tripping from remote L30 relays still
protecting the line, the auxiliary contact of line disconnect switch (logic “1” when line switch is open) should be
assigned to block the local 87L function by using the CURRENT DIFF BLOCK setting.
• STUB BUS DISCONNECT: Selects a FlexLogic operand to represent the open state of auxiliary contact of line discon-
nect switch (logic “1” when line disconnect switch is open). If necessary, simple logic representing not only line discon-
nect switch but also the closed state of the breakers can be created with FlexLogic and assigned to this setting.
• STUB BUS TRIGGER: Selects a FlexLogic operand that causes the STUB BUS OPERATE operand to pick up if the line
disconnect is open. It can be set either to “On” or to an instantaneous overcurrent element (see above). If the instanta-
neous overcurrent used for the stub bus protection is set with a time delay, then STUB BUS TRIGGER should use the
associated instantaneous overcurrent pickup operand. The source assigned for the current of this element must cover
the stub between CTs of the associated breakers and disconnect switch.

b) INVERSE TIME OVERCURRENT CHARACTERISTICS

The inverse time overcurrent curves used by the time overcurrent elements are the IEEE, IEC, GE Type IAC, and I2t stan-
dard curve shapes. This allows for simplified coordination with downstream devices.
If none of these curve shapes is adequate, FlexCurves may be used to customize the inverse time curve characteristics.
The definite time curve is also an option that may be appropriate if only simple protection is required.

IEC Short Inverse IAC Short Inverse Definite Time
A time dial multiplier setting allows selection of a multiple of the base curve shape (where the time dial multiplier = 1) with
the curve shape (CURVE) setting. Unlike the electromechanical time dial equivalent, operate times are directly proportional
to the time multiplier (TD MULTIPLIER) setting value. For example, all times for a multiplier of 10 are 10 times the multiplier 1
or base curve values. Setting the multiplier to zero results in an instantaneous response to all current levels above pickup.
Time overcurrent time calculations are made with an internal energy capacity memory variable. When this variable indi-
cates that the energy capacity has reached 100%, a time overcurrent element will operate. If less than 100% energy capac-
ity is accumulated in this variable and the current falls below the dropout threshold of 97 to 98% of the pickup value, the
variable must be reduced. Two methods of this resetting operation are available: “Instantaneous” and “Timed”. The “Instan-
taneous” selection is intended for applications with other relays, such as most static relays, which set the energy capacity
directly to zero when the current falls below the reset threshold. The “Timed” selection can be used where the relay must
5 coordinate with electromechanical relays.

The IEEE time overcurrent curve shapes conform to industry standards and the IEEE C37.112-1996 curve classifications

The phase time overcurrent element can provide a desired time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied current or
be used as a simple definite time element. The phase current input quantities may be programmed as fundamental phasor
magnitude or total waveform RMS magnitude as required by the application.
Two methods of resetting operation are available: “Timed” and “Instantaneous” (refer to the Inverse Time overcurrent
curves characteristic sub-section earlier for details on curve setup, trip times, and reset operation). When the element is
blocked, the time accumulator will reset according to the reset characteristic. For example, if the element reset characteris-
tic is set to “Instantaneous” and the element is blocked, the time accumulator will be cleared immediately.
The PHASE TOC1 PICKUP setting can be dynamically reduced by a voltage restraint feature (when enabled). This is accom-
plished via the multipliers (Mvr) corresponding to the phase-phase voltages of the voltage restraint characteristic curve (see
the figure below); the pickup level is calculated as ‘Mvr’ times the PHASE TOC1 PICKUP setting. If the voltage restraint feature
is disabled, the pickup level always remains at the setting value.

The phase directional elements (one for each of phases A, B, and C) determine the phase current flow direction for steady

Figure 5–67: PHASE A DIRECTIONAL POLARIZATION

This element is intended to apply a block signal to an overcurrent element to prevent an operation when current is flowing
in a particular direction. The direction of current flow is determined by measuring the phase angle between the current from
the phase CTs and the line-line voltage from the VTs, based on the 90° or quadrature connection. If there is a requirement
to supervise overcurrent elements for flows in opposite directions, such as can happen through a bus-tie breaker, two
phase directional elements should be programmed with opposite element characteristic angle (ECA) settings.

To increase security for three phase faults very close to the VTs used to measure the polarizing voltage, a voltage memory
feature is incorporated. This feature stores the polarizing voltage the moment before the voltage collapses, and uses it to
determine direction. The voltage memory remains valid for one second after the voltage has collapsed.
The main component of the phase directional element is the phase angle comparator with two inputs: the operating signal
(phase current) and the polarizing signal (the line voltage, shifted in the leading direction by the characteristic angle, ECA).
The following table shows the operating and polarizing signals used for phase directional control:
PHASE OPERATING POLARIZING SIGNAL Vpol
SIGNAL
ABC PHASE SEQUENCE ACB PHASE SEQUENCE
A angle of IA angle of VBC  (1ECA) angle of VCB  (1ECA)
B angle of IB angle of VCA  (1ECA) angle of VAC  1ECA)
C angle of IC angle of VAB  (1ECA) angle of VBA  (1ECA)
MODE OF OPERATION:
• When the function is “Disabled”, or the operating current is below 5%  CT nominal, the element output is “0”.
• When the function is “Enabled”, the operating current is above 5%  CT nominal, and the polarizing voltage is above
the PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES  VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL value, the element output is dependent on
the phase angle between the operating and polarizing signals:
– The element output is logic “0” when the operating current is within polarizing voltage ±90°.
– For all other angles, the element output is logic “1”.
• Once the voltage memory has expired, the phase overcurrent elements under directional control can be set to block or
trip on overcurrent as follows:
– When BLOCK WHEN V MEM EXP is set to “Yes”, the directional element will block the operation of any phase
overcurrent element under directional control when voltage memory expires.
5
– When BLOCK WHEN V MEM EXP is set to “No”, the directional element allows tripping of phase overcurrent elements
under directional control when voltage memory expires.
In all cases, directional blocking will be permitted to resume when the polarizing voltage becomes greater than the ‘polariz-
ing voltage threshold’.
SETTINGS:
• PHASE DIR 1 SIGNAL SOURCE: This setting is used to select the source for the operating and polarizing signals.
The operating current for the phase directional element is the phase current for the selected current source. The polar-
izing voltage is the line voltage from the phase VTs, based on the 90° or ‘quadrature’ connection and shifted in the
leading direction by the element characteristic angle (ECA).
• PHASE DIR 1 ECA: This setting is used to select the element characteristic angle, i.e. the angle by which the polariz-
ing voltage is shifted in the leading direction to achieve dependable operation. In the design of the UR-series elements,
a block is applied to an element by asserting logic 1 at the blocking input. This element should be programmed via the
ECA setting so that the output is logic 1 for current in the non-tripping direction.
• PHASE DIR 1 POL V THRESHOLD: This setting is used to establish the minimum level of voltage for which the phase
angle measurement is reliable. The setting is based on VT accuracy. The default value is “0.700 pu”.
• PHASE DIR 1 BLOCK WHEN V MEM EXP: This setting is used to select the required operation upon expiration of
voltage memory. When set to "Yes", the directional element blocks the operation of any phase overcurrent element
under directional control, when voltage memory expires; when set to "No", the directional element allows tripping of
phase overcurrent elements under directional control.
The phase directional element responds to the forward load current. In the case of a following reverse fault, the ele-
ment needs some time – in the order of 8 ms – to establish a blocking signal. Some protection elements such as
NOTE
instantaneous overcurrent may respond to reverse faults before the blocking signal is established. Therefore, a
coordination time of at least 10 ms must be added to all the instantaneous protection elements under the supervi-
sion of the phase directional element. If current reversal is of a concern, a longer delay – in the order of 20 ms –

The neutral time overcurrent element can provide a desired time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied current
or be used as a simple definite time element. The neutral current input value is a quantity calculated as 3Io from the phase
currents and may be programmed as fundamental phasor magnitude or total waveform RMS magnitude as required by the
application.
Two methods of resetting operation are available: “Timed” and “Instantaneous” (refer to the Inverse time overcurrent curve
characteristics section for details on curve setup, trip times and reset operation). When the element is blocked, the time
accumulator will reset according to the reset characteristic. For example, if the element reset characteristic is set to “Instan-
taneous” and the element is blocked, the time accumulator will be cleared immediately.

The neutral instantaneous overcurrent element may be used as an instantaneous function with no intentional delay or as a
5 definite time function. The element essentially responds to the magnitude of a neutral current fundamental frequency pha-
sor calculated from the phase currents. A positive-sequence restraint is applied for better performance. A small portion
(6.25%) of the positive-sequence current magnitude is subtracted from the zero-sequence current magnitude when forming
the operating quantity of the element as follows:
I op = 3   I_0 – K  I_1  where K = 1  16 (EQ 5.18)
The positive-sequence restraint allows for more sensitive settings by counterbalancing spurious zero-sequence currents
resulting from:
• System unbalances under heavy load conditions
• Transformation errors of current transformers (CTs) during double-line and three-phase faults.
• Switch-off transients during double-line and three-phase faults.
The positive-sequence restraint must be considered when testing for pickup accuracy and response time (multiple of
pickup). The operating quantity depends on how test currents are injected into the relay (single-phase injection:
I op = 0.9375  I injected ; three-phase pure zero-sequence injection: I op = 3  I injected ).

The neutral directional overcurrent element provides both forward and reverse fault direction indications the NEUTRAL DIR
OC1 FWD and NEUTRAL DIR OC1 REV operands, respectively. The output operand is asserted if the magnitude of the oper-
ating current is above a pickup level (overcurrent unit) and the fault direction is seen as forward or reverse, respectively
(directional unit).
The overcurrent unit responds to the magnitude of a fundamental frequency phasor of the either the neutral current calcu-
lated from the phase currents or the ground current. There are separate pickup settings for the forward-looking and
reverse-looking functions. If set to use the calculated 3I_0, the element applies a positive-sequence restraint for better per-
formance: a small user-programmable portion of the positive-sequence current magnitude is subtracted from the zero-
sequence current magnitude when forming the operating quantity.
I op = 3   I_0 – K  I_1  (EQ 5.19)
The positive-sequence restraint allows for more sensitive settings by counterbalancing spurious zero-sequence currents
resulting from:
• System unbalances under heavy load conditions.

• Transformation errors of current transformers (CTs) during double-line and three-phase faults.
• Switch-off transients during double-line and three-phase faults.
pickup). The operating quantity depends on the way the test currents are injected into the relay (single-phase injection:
Iop = (1 – K)  Iinjected ; three-phase pure zero-sequence injection: Iop = 3  Iinjected).
The positive-sequence restraint is removed for low currents. If the positive-sequence current is below 0.8 pu, the restraint is
removed by changing the constant K to zero. This facilitates better response to high-resistance faults when the unbalance
is very small and there is no danger of excessive CT errors as the current is low.
The directional unit uses the zero-sequence current (I_0) or ground current (IG) for fault direction discrimination and may
be programmed to use either zero-sequence voltage (“Calculated V0” or “Measured VX”), ground current (IG), or both for
polarizing. The zero-sequence current (I_0) must be greater than the PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES  CUR-
RENT CUT-OFF LEVEL setting value and IG must be greater than 0.05 pu to be validated as the operating quantity for direc-
tional current. The following tables define the neutral directional overcurrent element.

When NEUTRAL DIR OC1 POL VOLT is set to “Measured VX”, one-third of this voltage is used in place of V_0. The following
figure explains the usage of the voltage polarized directional unit of the element.
The figure below shows the voltage-polarized phase angle comparator characteristics for a phase A to ground fault, with:
• ECA = 90° (element characteristic angle = centerline of operating characteristic)
• FWD LA = 80° (forward limit angle = the ± angular limit with the ECA for operation)
• REV LA = 80° (reverse limit angle = the ± angular limit with the ECA for operation)
The above bias should be taken into account when using the neutral directional overcurrent element to directionalize other
protection elements.

• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 POLARIZING: This setting selects the polarizing mode for the directional unit.
– If “Voltage” polarizing is selected, the element uses the zero-sequence voltage angle for polarization. The user
can use either the zero-sequence voltage V_0 calculated from the phase voltages, or the zero-sequence voltage
supplied externally as the auxiliary voltage V_X, both from the NEUTRAL DIR OC1 SOURCE.
The calculated V_0 can be used as polarizing voltage only if the voltage transformers are connected in Wye. The
auxiliary voltage can be used as the polarizing voltage provided SYSTEM SETUP  AC INPUTS  VOLTAGE BANK
 AUXILIARY VT CONNECTION is set to “Vn” and the auxiliary voltage is connected to a zero-sequence voltage
source (such as broken delta connected secondary of VTs).
The zero-sequence (V_0) or auxiliary voltage (V_X), accordingly, must be greater than the VOLTAGE CUTOFF
LEVEL setting specified in the PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES menu to be validated for use as a polariz-
ing signal. If the polarizing signal is invalid, neither forward nor reverse indication is given.
– If “Current” polarizing is selected, the element uses the ground current angle connected externally and configured
under NEUTRAL OC1 SOURCE for polarization. The ground CT must be connected between the ground and neutral
point of an adequate local source of ground current. The ground current must be greater than 0.05 pu to be vali-
dated as a polarizing signal. If the polarizing signal is not valid, neither forward nor reverse indication is given. In
addition, the zero-sequence current (I_0) must be greater than the PRODUCT SETUP  DISPLAY PROPERTIES 
CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL setting value.
For a choice of current polarizing, it is recommended that the polarizing signal be analyzed to ensure that a known
direction is maintained irrespective of the fault location. For example, if using an autotransformer neutral current
as a polarizing source, it should be ensured that a reversal of the ground current does not occur for a high-side
fault. The low-side system impedance should be assumed minimal when checking for this condition. A similar sit-
uation arises for a wye/delta/wye transformer, where current in one transformer winding neutral may reverse when
faults on both sides of the transformer are considered.
– If “Dual” polarizing is selected, the element performs both directional comparisons as described above. A given
direction is confirmed if either voltage or current comparators indicate so. If a conflicting (simultaneous forward
and reverse) indication occurs, the forward direction overrides the reverse direction.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 POL VOLT: Selects the polarizing voltage used by the directional unit when "Voltage," "Dual,"
"Dual-V," or "Dual-I" polarizing mode is set. The polarizing voltage can be programmed to be either the zero-sequence

voltage calculated from the phase voltages ("Calculated V0") or supplied externally as an auxiliary voltage ("Measured
VX").
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 OP CURR: This setting indicates whether the 3I_0 current calculated from the phase currents, or
the ground current shall be used by this protection. This setting acts as a switch between the neutral and ground
modes of operation (67N and 67G). If set to “Calculated 3I0” the element uses the phase currents and applies the pos-
itive-sequence restraint; if set to “Measured IG” the element uses ground current supplied to the ground CT of the CT
bank configured as NEUTRAL DIR OC1 SOURCE. If this setting is “Measured IG”, then the NEUTRAL DIR OC1 POLARIZING
setting must be “Voltage”, as it is not possible to use the ground current as an operating and polarizing signal simulta-
neously. IG current has to be above 0.05 ps to be used as operate quantity.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 POS-SEQ RESTRAINT: This setting controls the amount of the positive-sequence restraint. Set
to 0.063 for backward compatibility with firmware revision 3.40 and older. Set to zero to remove the restraint. Set
higher if large system unbalances or poor CT performance are expected.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 OFFSET: This setting specifies the offset impedance used by this protection. The primary appli-
cation for the offset impedance is to guarantee correct identification of fault direction on series compensated lines. In
regular applications, the offset impedance ensures proper operation even if the zero-sequence voltage at the relaying
point is very small. If this is the intent, the offset impedance shall not be larger than the zero-sequence impedance of
the protected circuit. Practically, it shall be several times smaller. The offset impedance shall be entered in secondary
ohms.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 FWD ECA: This setting defines the characteristic angle (ECA) for the forward direction in the
"Voltage" polarizing mode. The "Current" polarizing mode uses a fixed ECA of 0°. The ECA in the reverse direction is
the angle set for the forward direction shifted by 180°.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 FWD LIMIT ANGLE: This setting defines a symmetrical (in both directions from the ECA) limit
angle for the forward direction.
5 • NEUTRAL DIR OC1 FWD PICKUP: This setting defines the pickup level for the overcurrent unit of the element in the
forward direction. When selecting this setting it must be kept in mind that the design uses a ‘positive-sequence
restraint’ technique for the “Calculated 3I0” mode of operation.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 REV LIMIT ANGLE: This setting defines a symmetrical (in both directions from the ECA) limit
angle for the reverse direction.
• NEUTRAL DIR OC1 REV PICKUP: This setting defines the pickup level for the overcurrent unit of the element in the
reverse direction. When selecting this setting it must be kept in mind that the design uses a positive-sequence restraint
technique for the “Calculated 3I0” mode of operation.

The negative-sequence instantaneous overcurrent element may be used as an instantaneous function with no intentional
delay or as a definite time function. The element responds to the negative-sequence current fundamental frequency phasor
magnitude (calculated from the phase currents) and applies a positive-sequence restraint for better performance: a small 5
portion (12.5%) of the positive-sequence current magnitude is subtracted from the negative-sequence current magnitude
when forming the operating quantity:
I op = I_2 – K  I_1 where K = 1  8 (EQ 5.20)
The positive-sequence restraint allows for more sensitive settings by counterbalancing spurious negative-sequence cur-
rents resulting from:
• system unbalances under heavy load conditions
• transformation errors of current transformers (CTs) during three-phase faults
• fault inception and switch-off transients during three-phase faults

In general, a breaker failure scheme determines that a breaker signaled to trip has not cleared a fault within a definite time,
so further tripping action must be performed. Tripping from the breaker failure scheme should trip all breakers, both local
and remote, that can supply current to the faulted zone. Usually operation of a breaker failure element will cause clearing of
a larger section of the power system than the initial trip. Because breaker failure can result in tripping a large number of
breakers and this affects system safety and stability, a very high level of security is required.
Two schemes are provided: one for three-pole tripping only (identified by the name “3BF”) and one for three pole plus sin-
gle-pole operation (identified by the name “1BF”). The philosophy used in these schemes is identical. The operation of a
breaker failure element includes three stages: initiation, determination of a breaker failure condition, and output.
INITIATION STAGE:
A FlexLogic operand representing the protection trip signal initially sent to the breaker must be selected to initiate the
scheme. The initiating signal should be sealed-in if primary fault detection can reset before the breaker failure timers have
finished timing. The seal-in is supervised by current level, so it is reset when the fault is cleared. If desired, an incomplete
sequence seal-in reset can be implemented by using the initiating operand to also initiate a FlexLogic timer, set longer than
any breaker failure timer, whose output operand is selected to block the breaker failure scheme.
Schemes can be initiated either directly or with current level supervision. It is particularly important in any application to
decide if a current-supervised initiate is to be used. The use of a current-supervised initiate results in the breaker failure ele-
ment not being initiated for a breaker that has very little or no current flowing through it, which may be the case for trans-
former faults. For those situations where it is required to maintain breaker fail coverage for fault levels below the BF1 PH
AMP SUPV PICKUP or the BF1 N AMP SUPV PICKUP setting, a current supervised initiate should not be used. This feature
should be utilized for those situations where coordinating margins may be reduced when high speed reclosing is used.
Thus, if this choice is made, fault levels must always be above the supervision pickup levels for dependable operation of
the breaker fail scheme. This can also occur in breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configurations where the first breaker closes
into a fault; the protection trips and attempts to initiate breaker failure for the second breaker, which is in the process of
closing, but does not yet have current flowing through it.

When the scheme is initiated, it immediately sends a trip signal to the breaker initially signaled to trip (this feature is usually
described as re-trip). This reduces the possibility of widespread tripping that results from a declaration of a failed breaker.
DETERMINATION OF A BREAKER FAILURE CONDITION:
The schemes determine a breaker failure condition via three paths. Each of these paths is equipped with a time delay, after
which a failed breaker is declared and trip signals are sent to all breakers required to clear the zone. The delayed paths are
associated with breaker failure timers 1, 2, and 3, which are intended to have delays increasing with increasing timer num-
bers. These delayed paths are individually enabled to allow for maximum flexibility.
Timer 1 logic (early path) is supervised by a fast-operating breaker auxiliary contact. If the breaker is still closed (as indi-
cated by the auxiliary contact) and fault current is detected after the delay interval, an output is issued. Operation of the
breaker auxiliary switch indicates that the breaker has mechanically operated. The continued presence of current indicates
that the breaker has failed to interrupt the circuit.
Timer 2 logic (main path) is not supervised by a breaker auxiliary contact. If fault current is detected after the delay interval,
an output is issued. This path is intended to detect a breaker that opens mechanically but fails to interrupt fault current; the
logic therefore does not use a breaker auxiliary contact.
The timer 1 and 2 paths provide two levels of current supervision, high-set and low-set, that allow the supervision level to
change from a current which flows before a breaker inserts an opening resistor into the faulted circuit to a lower level after
resistor insertion. The high-set detector is enabled after timeout of timer 1 or 2, along with a timer that will enable the low-
set detector after its delay interval. The delay interval between high-set and low-set is the expected breaker opening time.
Both current detectors provide a fast operating time for currents at small multiples of the pickup value. The overcurrent
detectors are required to operate after the breaker failure delay interval to eliminate the need for very fast resetting overcur-
rent detectors.
Timer 3 logic (slow path) is supervised by a breaker auxiliary contact and a control switch contact used to indicate that the
breaker is in or out-of-service, disabling this path when the breaker is out-of-service for maintenance. There is no current
5 level check in this logic as it is intended to detect low magnitude faults and it is therefore the slowest to operate.
OUTPUT:
The outputs from the schemes are:
• FlexLogic operands that report on the operation of portions of the scheme
• FlexLogic operand used to re-trip the protected breaker
• FlexLogic operands that initiate tripping required to clear the faulted zone. The trip output can be sealed-in for an
adjustable period.
• Target message indicating a failed breaker has been declared
• Illumination of the faceplate Trip LED (and the Phase A, B or C LED, if applicable)

Figure 5–78: BREAKER FAILURE OVERCURRENT SUPERVISION RESET TIME

SETTINGS:
• BF1 MODE: This setting is used to select the breaker failure operating mode: single or three pole.
• BF1 USE AMP SUPV: If set to "Yes", the element will only be initiated if current flowing through the breaker is above
•
the supervision pickup level.
BF1 USE SEAL-IN: If set to "Yes", the element will only be sealed-in if current flowing through the breaker is above the
5
supervision pickup level.
• BF1 3-POLE INITIATE: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that will initiate three-pole tripping of the breaker.
• BF1 PH AMP SUPV PICKUP: This setting is used to set the phase current initiation and seal-in supervision level.
Generally this setting should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker. It can be set as low as
necessary (lower than breaker resistor current or lower than load current) – high-set and low-set current supervision
will guarantee correct operation.
• BF1 N AMP SUPV PICKUP: This setting is used to set the neutral current initiate and seal-in supervision level. Gener-
ally this setting should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker. Neutral current supervision is
used only in the three phase scheme to provide increased sensitivity. This setting is valid only for three-pole tripping
schemes.
• BF1 USE TIMER 1: If set to "Yes", the early path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 1 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 1 is set to the shortest time required for breaker auxiliary contact Status-1 to
open, from the time the initial trip signal is applied to the breaker trip circuit, plus a safety margin.
• BF1 USE TIMER 2: If set to "Yes", the main path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 2 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 2 is set to the expected opening time of the breaker, plus a safety margin. This
safety margin was historically intended to allow for measuring and timing errors in the breaker failure scheme equip-
ment. In microprocessor relays this time is not significant. In L30 relays, which use a Fourier transform, the calculated
current magnitude will ramp-down to zero one power frequency cycle after the current is interrupted, and this lag
should be included in the overall margin duration, as it occurs after current interruption. The Breaker failure main path
sequence diagram below shows a margin of two cycles; this interval is considered the minimum appropriate for most
applications.
Note that in bulk oil circuit breakers, the interrupting time for currents less than 25% of the interrupting rating can be
significantly longer than the normal interrupting time.
• BF1 USE TIMER 3: If set to "Yes", the Slow Path is operational.
• BF1 TIMER 3 PICKUP DELAY: Timer 3 is set to the same interval as timer 2, plus an increased safety margin.
Because this path is intended to operate only for low level faults, the delay can be in the order of 300 to 500 ms.

• BF1 BKR POS1 A/3P: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the protected breaker early-type
auxiliary switch contact (52/a). When using the single-pole breaker failure scheme, this operand represents the pro-
tected breaker early-type auxiliary switch contact on pole A. This is normally a non-multiplied form-A contact. The con-
tact may even be adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time.
• BF1 BKR POS2 A/3P: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the breaker normal-type auxiliary
switch contact (52/a). When using the single-pole breaker failure scheme, this operand represents the protected
breaker auxiliary switch contact on pole A. This may be a multiplied contact.
• BF1 BREAKER TEST ON: This setting is used to select the FlexLogic operand that represents the breaker in-service/
out-of-service switch set to the out-of-service position.
• BF1 PH AMP HISET PICKUP: This setting sets the phase current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, before a breaker opening resistor is inserted.
• BF1 N AMP HISET PICKUP: This setting sets the neutral current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, before a breaker opening resistor is inserted.
Neutral current supervision is used only in the three pole scheme to provide increased sensitivity. This setting is valid
only for three-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 PH AMP LOSET PICKUP: This setting sets the phase current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, after a breaker opening resistor is inserted
(approximately 90% of the resistor current).
• BF1 N AMP LOSET PICKUP: This setting sets the neutral current output supervision level. Generally this setting
should detect the lowest expected fault current on the protected breaker, after a breaker opening resistor is inserted
(approximately 90% of the resistor current). This setting is valid only for three-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 LOSET TIME DELAY: Sets the pickup delay for current detection after opening resistor insertion.
5 • BF1 TRIP DROPOUT DELAY: This setting is used to set the period of time for which the trip output is sealed-in. This
timer must be coordinated with the automatic reclosing scheme of the failed breaker, to which the breaker failure ele-
ment sends a cancel reclosure signal. Reclosure of a remote breaker can also be prevented by holding a transfer trip
signal on longer than the reclaim time.
• BF1 PH A INITIATE / BF1 PH B INITIATE / BF 1 PH C INITIATE: These settings select the FlexLogic operand to initi-
ate phase A, B, or C single-pole tripping of the breaker and the phase A, B, or C portion of the scheme, accordingly.
This setting is only valid for single-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS1 B / BF1 BKR POS 1 C: These settings select the FlexLogic operand to represents the protected
breaker early-type auxiliary switch contact on poles B or C, accordingly. This contact is normally a non-multiplied Form-
A contact. The contact may even be adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time. This setting is valid only for
single-pole breaker failure schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS2 B: Selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type auxiliary switch
contact on pole B (52/a). This may be a multiplied contact. This setting is valid only for single-pole breaker failure
schemes.
• BF1 BKR POS2 C: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type
auxiliary switch contact on pole C (52/a). This may be a multiplied contact. For single-pole operation, the scheme has
the same overall general concept except that it provides re-tripping of each single pole of the protected breaker. The
approach shown in the following single pole tripping diagram uses the initiating information to determine which pole is
supposed to trip. The logic is segregated on a per-pole basis. The overcurrent detectors have ganged settings. This
setting is valid only for single-pole breaker failure schemes.
Upon operation of the breaker failure element for a single pole trip command, a three-pole trip command should be
given via output operand BKR FAIL 1 TRIP OP.

These protection elements can be used for a variety of applications such as:
• Undervoltage Protection: For voltage sensitive loads, such as induction motors, a drop in voltage increases the
drawn current which may cause dangerous overheating in the motor. The undervoltage protection feature can be used
to either cause a trip or generate an alarm when the voltage drops below a specified voltage setting for a specified time
delay.
• Permissive Functions: The undervoltage feature may be used to block the functioning of external devices by operat-
ing an output relay when the voltage falls below the specified voltage setting. The undervoltage feature may also be
used to block the functioning of other elements through the block feature of those elements.
• Source Transfer Schemes: In the event of an undervoltage, a transfer signal may be generated to transfer a load
from its normal source to a standby or emergency power source.
The undervoltage elements can be programmed to have a definite time delay characteristic. The definite time curve oper-
ates when the voltage drops below the pickup level for a specified period of time. The time delay is adjustable from 0 to
600.00 seconds in steps of 0.01. The undervoltage elements can also be programmed to have an inverse time delay char-
acteristic.
The undervoltage delay setting defines the family of curves shown below.

This element may be used to give a desired time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied fundamental voltage
(phase-to-ground or phase-to-phase for wye VT connection, or phase-to-phase for delta VT connection) or as a definite
time element. The element resets instantaneously if the applied voltage exceeds the dropout voltage. The delay setting
selects the minimum operating time of the phase undervoltage. The minimum voltage setting selects the operating voltage
below which the element is blocked (a setting of “0” will allow a dead source to be considered a fault condition).

oscillography The disturbance detector also signals the 87L function that a disturbance (possible fault) occurred and to
resize the operating window to remove the pre-fault current. It is essential to have the disturbance detector enabled for
applications where the 87L operating time is critical.
If the disturbance detector is used to supervise the operation of the 87L function, it is recommended that the 87L trip ele-
ment be used. The 50DD SV disturbance detector FlexLogic operand must then be assigned to an 87L TRIP SUPV setting.
The disturbance detector function measures the magnitude of the negative-sequence current (I_2), the magnitude of the
zero-sequence current (I_0), the change in negative-sequence current (I_2), the change in zero-sequence current (I_0),
and the change in positive-sequence current (I_1). The disturbance detector element uses net local current, computed as
a sum of all sources configured in the current differential element, to detect system disturbances.
The adaptive level detector operates as follows:
• When the absolute level increases above 0.12 pu for I_0 or I_2, the adaptive level detector output is active and the
next highest threshold level is increased 8 cycles later from 0.12 to 0.24 pu in steps of 0.02 pu. If the level exceeds
0.24 pu, the current adaptive level detector setting remains at 0.24 pu and the output remains active (as well as the
disturbance detector output) when the measured value remains above the current setting.
• When the absolute level is decreasing from in range from 0.24 to 0.12 pu, the lower level is set every 8 cycles without
the adaptive level detector active. Note that the 50DD output remains inactive during this change as long as the delta
change is less than 0.04 pu.
The delta level detectors (I) detectors are designed to pickup for the 0.04 pu change in I_1, I_2, and I_0 currents. The I
value is measured by comparing the present value to the value calculated 4 cycles earlier.
• DD FUNCTION: This setting is used to enable/disable the operation of the disturbance detector.
• DD NON-CURRENT SUPV: This setting is used to select a FlexLogic operand which will activate the output of the dis-
turbance detector upon events (such as frequency or voltage change) not accompanied by a current change.
• DD CONTROL LOGIC: This setting is used to prevent operation of I_0 and I_2 logic of disturbance detector during
conditions such as single breaker pole being open which leads to unbalanced load current in single-pole tripping
schemes. Breaker auxiliary contact can be used for such scheme.

• DD LOGIC SEAL-IN: This setting is used to maintain disturbance detector output for such conditions as balanced
three-phase fault, low level time overcurrent fault, etc. whenever the disturbance detector might reset. Output of the
disturbance detector will be maintained until the chosen FlexLogic operand resets.
The user may disable the DD EVENTS setting as the disturbance detector element will respond to any current distur-
bance on the system which may result in filling the events buffer and possible loss of valuable data.

The trip bus element allows aggregating outputs of protection and control elements without using FlexLogic and assigning
them a simple and effective manner. Each trip bus can be assigned for either trip or alarm actions. Simple trip conditioning
such as latch, delay, and seal-in delay are available.
The easiest way to assign element outputs to a trip bus is through the EnerVista UR Setup software A protection summary
is displayed by navigating to a specific protection or control protection element and checking the desired bus box. Once the
desired element is selected for a specific bus, a list of element operate-type operands are displayed and can be assigned
to a trip bus. If more than one operate-type operand is required, it may be assigned directly from the trip bus menu.

The following settings are available.
• TRIP BUS 1 BLOCK: The trip bus output is blocked when the operand assigned to this setting is asserted.
• TRIP BUS 1 PICKUP DELAY: This setting specifies a time delay to produce an output depending on how output is
used.
5 • TRIP BUS 1 RESET DELAY: This setting specifies a time delay to reset an output command. The time delay should be
set long enough to allow the breaker or contactor to perform a required action.
• TRIP BUS 1 INPUT 1 to TRIP BUS 1 INPUT 16: These settings select a FlexLogic operand to be assigned as an input
to the trip bus.
• TRIP BUS 1 LATCHING: This setting enables or disables latching of the trip bus output. This is typically used when
lockout is required or user acknowledgement of the relay response is required.
• TRIP BUS 1 RESET: The trip bus output is reset when the operand assigned to this setting is asserted. Note that the
RESET OP operand is pre-wired to the reset gate of the latch, As such, a reset command the front panel interface or via
communications will reset the trip bus output.

The 61850 standard provides for the ability to monitor, edit, and change setting groups in a relay through a series of ser-
vices operating on Setting Group Control Block values. There is one SGCB in LLN0 in LD1 in the UR as, at present, the
other LDs do not support multiple setting groups The default value of SETTING GROUPS is Disabled. In order for 61850 and/
or UR setting group control to function, the SETTING GROUPS FUNCTION must be set to Enabled.
The active setting group in the UR is settable from either the value set via a FlexLogic operand in the UR (present practice)
or a SelectActiveSG command from a 61850 Client. For both the UR and IEC 61850, the default active setting group is "1".
A 61850 SelectActiveSG command sets one of the internal Non-Volatile flags (61850 SG Level x) that represents the
requested Active Setting Group shown as follows:
Table 5–28: ACTIVE SETTING GROUP
SELECTACTIVESG VALUE FLAG SET
1 (default) SG Level 1
2 SG Level 2
3 SG Level 3
4 SG Level 4
5 SG Level 4
6 SG Level 6
On power-up or restart, the previously selected 61850 SG Level x is re-instated. Similarly, the input to the setting group
control in the UR can be designed with Non-Volatile latches to achieve the same effect.
The setting groups menu controls the activation and deactivation of up to six possible groups of settings in the GROUPED
ELEMENTS settings menu. The faceplate Settings In Use LEDs indicate which active group (with a non-flashing energized
LED) is in service.

The SETTING GROUPS BLK setting prevents the active setting group from changing when the FlexLogic parameter is set to
"On". This can be useful in applications where it is undesirable to change the settings under certain conditions, such as the
breaker being open.
The GROUP 2 ACTIVATE ON to GROUP 6 ACTIVATE ON settings select a FlexLogic operand which, when set, makes the partic-
ular setting group active for use by any grouped element. A priority scheme ensures that only one group is active at a given
time – the highest-numbered group that is activated by its ACTIVATE ON parameter takes priority over the lower-numbered
groups. There is no activate on setting for group 1 (the default active group), because group 1 automatically becomes
active if no other group is active.
The SETTING GROUP 1 NAME to SETTING GROUP 6 NAME settings allows the user to assign a name to each of the six settings
groups. Once programmed, this name appears on the second line of the GROUPED ELEMENTS  SETTING GROUP 1(6) menu
display.
The relay can be set up via a FlexLogic equation to receive requests to activate or de-activate a particular non-default set-
tings group. The following FlexLogic equation (see the following figure) illustrates requests via remote communications (for
example, VIRTUAL INPUT 1 ON) or from a local contact input (for example, CONTACT IP 1 ON) to initiate the use of a particu-
lar settings group, and requests from several overcurrent pickup measuring elements to inhibit the use of the particular set-
tings group. The assigned VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 operand is used to control the “On” state of a particular settings group.

The selector switch element is intended to replace a mechanical selector switch. Typical applications include setting group
control or control of multiple logic sub-circuits in user-programmable logic.
The element provides for two control inputs. The step-up control allows stepping through selector position one step at a
time with each pulse of the control input, such as a user-programmable pushbutton. The three-bit control input allows set-
ting the selector to the position defined by a three-bit word.
The element allows pre-selecting a new position without applying it. The pre-selected position gets applied either after time-
out or upon acknowledgement via separate inputs (user setting). The selector position is stored in non-volatile memory.
Upon power-up, either the previous position is restored or the relay synchronizes to the current three-bit word (user set-
ting). Basic alarm functionality alerts the user under abnormal conditions; for example, the three-bit control input being out
of range.
• SELECTOR 1 FULL RANGE: This setting defines the upper position of the selector. When stepping up through avail-
able positions of the selector, the upper position wraps up to the lower position (position 1). When using a direct three-
bit control word for programming the selector to a desired position, the change would take place only if the control word
is within the range of 1 to the SELECTOR FULL RANGE. If the control word is outside the range, an alarm is established
by setting the SELECTOR ALARM FlexLogic operand for 3 seconds.

• SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT: This setting defines the time-out period for the selector. This value is used by the relay in
the following two ways. When the SELECTOR STEP-UP MODE is “Time-out”, the setting specifies the required period of
inactivity of the control input after which the pre-selected position is automatically applied. When the SELECTOR STEP-
UP MODE is “Acknowledge”, the setting specifies the period of time for the acknowledging input to appear. The timer is
re-started by any activity of the control input. The acknowledging input must come before the SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT
timer expires; otherwise, the change will not take place and an alarm will be set.
• SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP: This setting specifies a control input for the selector switch. The switch is shifted to a new
position at each rising edge of this signal. The position changes incrementally, wrapping up from the last (SELECTOR 1
FULL RANGE) to the first (position 1). Consecutive pulses of this control operand must not occur faster than every
50 ms. After each rising edge of the assigned operand, the time-out timer is restarted and the SELECTOR SWITCH 1:
POS Z CHNG INITIATED target message is displayed, where Z the pre-selected position. The message is displayed for
the time specified by the FLASH MESSAGE TIME setting. The pre-selected position is applied after the selector times out
(“Time-out” mode), or when the acknowledging signal appears before the element times out (“Acknowledge” mode).
When the new position is applied, the relay displays the SELECTOR SWITCH 1: POSITION Z IN USE message. Typically,
a user-programmable pushbutton is configured as the stepping up control input.
• SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP MODE: This setting defines the selector mode of operation. When set to “Time-out”, the
selector will change its position after a pre-defined period of inactivity at the control input. The change is automatic and
does not require any explicit confirmation of the intent to change the selector's position. When set to “Acknowledge”,
the selector will change its position only after the intent is confirmed through a separate acknowledging signal. If the
acknowledging signal does not appear within a pre-defined period of time, the selector does not accept the change
and an alarm is established by setting the SELECTOR STP ALARM output FlexLogic operand for 3 seconds.
• SELECTOR 1 ACK: This setting specifies an acknowledging input for the stepping up control input. The pre-selected
position is applied on the rising edge of the assigned operand. This setting is active only under “Acknowledge” mode of
operation. The acknowledging signal must appear within the time defined by the SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT setting after the
5 •
last activity of the control input. A user-programmable pushbutton is typically configured as the acknowledging input.
SELECTOR 1 3BIT A0, A1, and A2: These settings specify a three-bit control input of the selector. The three-bit con-
trol word pre-selects the position using the following encoding convention:
A2 A1 A0 POSITION
0 0 0 rest
0 0 1 1
0 1 0 2
0 1 1 3
1 0 0 4
1 0 1 5
1 1 0 6
1 1 1 7
The “rest” position (0, 0, 0) does not generate an action and is intended for situations when the device generating the
three-bit control word is having a problem. When SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE is “Time-out”, the pre-selected position is
applied in SELECTOR 1 TIME-OUT seconds after the last activity of the three-bit input. When SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE is
“Acknowledge”, the pre-selected position is applied on the rising edge of the SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK acknowledging
input.
The stepping up control input (SELECTOR 1 STEP-UP) and the three-bit control inputs (SELECTOR 1 3BIT A0 through A2)
lock-out mutually: once the stepping up sequence is initiated, the three-bit control input is inactive; once the three-bit
control sequence is initiated, the stepping up input is inactive.
• SELECTOR 1 3BIT MODE: This setting defines the selector mode of operation. When set to “Time-out”, the selector
changes its position after a pre-defined period of inactivity at the control input. The change is automatic and does not
require explicit confirmation to change the selector position. When set to “Acknowledge”, the selector changes its posi-
tion only after confirmation via a separate acknowledging signal. If the acknowledging signal does not appear within a
pre-defined period of time, the selector rejects the change and an alarm established by invoking the SELECTOR BIT
ALARM FlexLogic operand for 3 seconds.
• SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK: This setting specifies an acknowledging input for the three-bit control input. The pre-
selected position is applied on the rising edge of the assigned FlexLogic operand. This setting is active only under the

“Acknowledge” mode of operation. The acknowledging signal must appear within the time defined by the SELECTOR
TIME-OUT setting after the last activity of the three-bit control inputs. Note that the stepping up control input and three-
bit control input have independent acknowledging signals (SELECTOR 1 ACK and SELECTOR 1 3BIT ACK, accordingly).
• SELECTOR 1 POWER-UP MODE: This setting specifies the element behavior on power up of the relay.
When set to “Restore”, the last position of the selector (stored in the non-volatile memory) is restored after powering up
the relay. If the position restored from memory is out of range, position 0 (no output operand selected) is applied and
an alarm is set (SELECTOR 1 PWR ALARM).
When set to “Synchronize” selector switch acts as follows. For two power cycles, the selector applies position 0 to the
switch and activates SELECTOR 1 PWR ALARM. After two power cycles expire, the selector synchronizes to the position
dictated by the three-bit control input. This operation does not wait for time-out or the acknowledging input. When the
synchronization attempt is unsuccessful (that is, the three-bit input is not available (0,0,0) or out of range) then the
selector switch output is set to position 0 (no output operand selected) and an alarm is established (SELECTOR 1 PWR
ALARM).
The operation of “Synch/Restore” mode is similar to the “Synchronize” mode. The only difference is that after an
unsuccessful synchronization attempt, the switch will attempt to restore the position stored in the relay memory. The
“Synch/Restore” mode is useful for applications where the selector switch is employed to change the setting group in
redundant (two relay) protection schemes.
• SELECTOR 1 EVENTS: If enabled, the following events are logged:

APPLICATION EXAMPLE
Consider an application where the selector switch is used to control setting groups 1 through 4 in the relay. The setting
groups are to be controlled from both user-programmable pushbutton 1 and from an external device via contact inputs 1
through 3. The active setting group shall be available as an encoded three-bit word to the external device and SCADA via
output contacts 1 through 3. The pre-selected setting group shall be applied automatically after 5 seconds of inactivity of
the control inputs. When the relay powers up, it should synchronize the setting group to the three-bit control input.

There are six identical underfrequency elements, numbered from 1 through 6.
The steady-state frequency of a power system is a certain indicator of the existing balance between the generated power
and the load. Whenever this balance is disrupted through the loss of an important generating unit or the isolation of part of
the system from the rest of the system, the effect will be a reduction in frequency. If the control systems of the system gen-
erators do not respond fast enough, the system may collapse. A reliable method to quickly restore the balance between
load and generation is to automatically disconnect selected loads, based on the actual system frequency. This technique,
called “load-shedding”, maintains system integrity and minimize widespread outages. After the frequency returns to normal,
the load may be automatically or manually restored.
The UNDERFREQ 1 SOURCE setting is used to select the source for the signal to be measured. The element first checks for a
live phase voltage available from the selected source. If voltage is not available, the element attempts to use a phase cur-
rent. If neither voltage nor current is available, the element will not operate, as it will not measure a parameter below the
minimum voltage/current setting.
The UNDERFREQ 1 MIN VOLT/AMP setting selects the minimum per unit voltage or current level required to allow the underfre-
quency element to operate. This threshold is used to prevent an incorrect operation because there is no signal to measure.
This UNDERFREQ 1 PICKUP setting is used to select the level at which the underfrequency element is to pickup. For example,
if the system frequency is 60 Hz and the load shedding is required at 59.5 Hz, the setting will be 59.50 Hz.

by the closure of a circuit breaker. The synchrocheck elements are typically used at locations where the two parts of the
system are interconnected through at least one other point in the system.
Synchrocheck verifies that the voltages (V1 and V2) on the two sides of the supervised circuit breaker are within set limits
of magnitude, angle and frequency differences. The time that the two voltages remain within the admissible angle differ-
ence is determined by the setting of the phase angle difference  and the frequency difference F (slip frequency). It can
be defined as the time it would take the voltage phasor V1 or V2 to traverse an angle equal to 2   at a frequency equal
to the frequency difference F. This time can be calculated by:
1
T = -------------------------------
- (EQ 5.22)
360
------------------  F
2  
where: = phase angle difference in degrees; F = frequency difference in Hz.

If one or both sources are de-energized, the synchrocheck programming can allow for closing of the circuit breaker using
undervoltage control to by-pass the synchrocheck measurements (dead source function).
• SYNCHK1 V1 SOURCE: This setting selects the source for voltage V1 (see NOTES below).
• SYNCHK1 V2 SOURCE: This setting selects the source for voltage V2, which must not be the same as used for the
V1 (see NOTES below).
• SYNCHK1 MAX VOLT DIFF: This setting selects the maximum primary voltage difference in volts between the two
sources. A primary voltage magnitude difference between the two input voltages below this value is within the permis-
sible limit for synchronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX ANGLE DIFF: This setting selects the maximum angular difference in degrees between the two
sources. An angular difference between the two input voltage phasors below this value is within the permissible limit
for synchronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ DIFF: This setting selects the maximum frequency difference in ‘Hz’ between the two sources.
A frequency difference between the two input voltage systems below this value is within the permissible limit for syn-
chronism.
• SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ HYSTERESIS: This setting specifies the required hysteresis for the maximum frequency differ-
ence condition. The condition becomes satisfied when the frequency difference becomes lower than SYNCHK1 MAX
FREQ DIFF. Once the Synchrocheck element has operated, the frequency difference must increase above the SYNCHK1
MAX FREQ DIFF + SYNCHK1 MAX FREQ HYSTERESIS sum to drop out (assuming the other two conditions, voltage and
angle, remain satisfied).
• SYNCHK1 DEAD SOURCE SELECT: This setting selects the combination of dead and live sources that will by-pass
synchronism check function and permit the breaker to be closed when one or both of the two voltages (V1 or/and V2)
are below the maximum voltage threshold. A dead or live source is declared by monitoring the voltage level. Six
options are available:
None: Dead Source function is disabled
5
LV1 and DV2: Live V1 and Dead V2
DV1 and LV2: Dead V1 and Live V2
DV1 or DV2: Dead V1 or Dead V2
DV1 Xor DV2: Dead V1 exclusive-or Dead V2 (one source is Dead and the other is Live)
DV1 and DV2: Dead V1 and Dead V2
• SYNCHK1 DEAD V1 MAX VOLT: This setting establishes a maximum voltage magnitude for V1 in 1 ‘pu’. Below this
magnitude, the V1 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Dead” or de-energized.
• SYNCHK1 DEAD V2 MAX VOLT: This setting establishes a maximum voltage magnitude for V2 in ‘pu’. Below this
magnitude, the V2 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Dead” or de-energized.
• SYNCHK1 LIVE V1 MIN VOLT: This setting establishes a minimum voltage magnitude for V1 in ‘pu’. Above this mag-
nitude, the V1 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Live” or energized.
• SYNCHK1 LIVE V2 MIN VOLT: This setting establishes a minimum voltage magnitude for V2 in ‘pu’. Above this mag-
nitude, the V2 voltage input used for synchrocheck will be considered “Live” or energized.
NOTES ON THE SYNCHROCHECK FUNCTION:
1. The selected sources for synchrocheck inputs V1 and V2 (which must not be the same source) may include both a
three-phase and an auxiliary voltage. The relay will automatically select the specific voltages to be used by the syn-
chrocheck element in accordance with the following table.
NO. V1 OR V2 V2 OR V1 AUTO-SELECTED AUTO-SELECTED VOLTAGE

(SOURCE Y) (SOURCE Z) COMBINATION
SOURCE Y SOURCE Z
1 Phase VTs and Phase VTs and Phase Phase VAB
Auxiliary VT Auxiliary VT
2 Phase VTs and Phase VT Phase Phase VAB
Auxiliary VT
3 Phase VT Phase VT Phase Phase VAB

NO. V1 OR V2 V2 OR V1 AUTO-SELECTED AUTO-SELECTED VOLTAGE

(SOURCE Y) (SOURCE Z) COMBINATION
SOURCE Y SOURCE Z
4 Phase VT and Auxiliary VT Phase Auxiliary V auxiliary
Auxiliary VT (as set for Source z)
5 Auxiliary VT Auxiliary VT Auxiliary Auxiliary V auxiliary
(as set for selected sources)
The voltages V1 and V2 will be matched automatically so that the corresponding voltages from the two sources will be
used to measure conditions. A phase to phase voltage will be used if available in both sources; if one or both of the
Sources have only an auxiliary voltage, this voltage will be used. For example, if an auxiliary voltage is programmed to
VAG, the synchrocheck element will automatically select VAG from the other source. If the comparison is required on a
specific voltage, the user can externally connect that specific voltage to auxiliary voltage terminals and then use this
"Auxiliary Voltage" to check the synchronism conditions.
If using a single CT/VT module with both phase voltages and an auxiliary voltage, ensure that only the auxiliary voltage
is programmed in one of the sources to be used for synchrocheck.
Exception: Synchronism cannot be checked between Delta connected phase VTs and a Wye connected auxil-
iary voltage.
NOTE
2. The relay measures frequency and Volts/Hz from an input on a given source with priorities as established by the con-
figuration of input channels to the source. The relay will use the phase channel of a three-phase set of voltages if pro-
grammed as part of that source. The relay will use the auxiliary voltage channel only if that channel is programmed as
part of the Source and a three-phase set is not.

The maximum number of autoreclosure elements available is equal to the number of installed CT banks.
The autoreclosure feature is intended for use with transmission and distribution lines, in three-pole tripping schemes for sin-
gle breaker applications. Up to four selectable reclosures ‘shots’ are possible prior to locking out. Each shot has an inde-
pendently settable dead time. The protection settings can be changed between shots if so desired, using FlexLogic. Logic
inputs are available for disabling or blocking the scheme.
Faceplate panel LEDs indicate the state of the autoreclose scheme as follows:
• Reclose Enabled: The scheme is enabled and may reclose if initiated.
• Reclose Disabled: The scheme is disabled.
• Reclose In Progress: An autoreclosure has been initiated but the breaker has not yet been signaled to close.
• Reclose Locked Out: The scheme has generated the maximum number of breaker closures allowed and, as the fault
persists, will not close the breaker again; known as ‘Lockout’. The scheme may also be sent in ‘Lockout’ when the 5
incomplete sequence timer times out or when a block signal occurs while in ‘reclose in progress’. The scheme must be
reset from Lockout in order to perform reclose for further faults.
The reclosure scheme is considered enabled when all of the following conditions are true:
• The AR1 FUNCTION is set to “Enabled”.
• The scheme is not in the ‘Lockout’ state.
• The ‘Block’ input is not asserted.
• The AR1 BLK TIME UPON MNL CLS timer is not active.
The autoreclose scheme is initiated by a trip signal from any selected protection feature operand. The scheme is initiated
provided the circuit breaker is in the closed state before protection operation.
The reclose-in-progress (RIP) is set when a reclosing cycle begins following a reclose initiate signal. Once the cycle is suc-
cessfully initiated, the RIP signal will seal-in and the scheme will continue through its sequence until one of the following
conditions is satisfied:
• The close signal is issued when the dead timer times out, or
• The scheme goes to lockout.
While RIP is active, the scheme checks that the breaker is open and the shot number is below the limit, and then begins
measuring the dead time.
Each of the four possible shots has an independently settable dead time. Two additional timers can be used to increase the
initial set dead times 1 to 4 by a delay equal to AR1 DELAY 1 or AR1 DELAY 2 or the sum of these two delays depending on the
selected settings. This offers enhanced setting flexibility using FlexLogic operands to turn the two additional timers “on” and
“off”. These operands may possibly include AR1 SHOT CNT =n, SETTING GROUP ACT 1, etc. The autoreclose provides up to
maximum 4 selectable shots. Maximum number of shots can be dynamically modified through the settings AR1 REDUCE
MAX TO 1 (2, 3), using the appropriate FlexLogic operand.
Scheme lockout blocks all phases of the reclosing cycle, preventing automatic reclosure, if any of the following occurs:
• The maximum shot number was reached.
• A ‘Block’ input is in effect (for instance; Breaker Failure, bus differential protection operated, etc.).

• The ‘Incomplete Sequence’ timer times out.

The recloser will be latched in the Lockout state until a ‘reset from lockout’ signal is asserted, either from a manual close of
the breaker or from a manual reset command (local or remote). The reset from lockout can be accomplished by operator
command, by manually closing the breaker, or whenever the breaker has been closed and stays closed for a preset time.
After the dead time elapses, the scheme issues the close signal. The close signal is latched until the breaker closes or the
scheme goes to Lockout.
A reset timer output resets the recloser following a successful reclosure sequence. The reset time is based on the breaker
‘reclaim time’ which is the minimum time required between successive reclose sequences.
SETTINGS:
• AR1 INITIATE: Selects the FlexLogic operand that initiates the scheme, typically the trip signal from protection.
• AR1 BLOCK: Selects the FlexLogic operand that blocks the autoreclosure initiate (it could be from the breaker failure,
bus differential protection, etc.).
• AR1 MAX NUMBER OF SHOTS: Specifies the number of reclosures that can be attempted before reclosure goes to
“Lockout” because the fault is permanent.
• AR1 REDUCE MAX TO 1(3): Selects the FlexLogic operand that changes the maximum number of shots from the ini-
tial setting to 1, 2, or 3, respectively.
• AR1 MANUAL CLOSE: Selects the logic input set when the breaker is manually closed.
• AR1 MNL RST FRM LO: Selects the FlexLogic operand that resets the autoreclosure from Lockout condition. Typi-
cally this is a manual reset from lockout, local or remote.
• AR1 RESET LOCKOUT IF BREAKER CLOSED: This setting allows the autoreclose scheme to reset from Lockout if
the breaker has been manually closed and stays closed for a preset time. In order for this setting to be effective, the
5 next setting (AR1 RESET LOCKOUT ON MANUAL CLOSE) should be disabled.
• AR1 RESET LOCKOUT ON MANUAL CLOSE: This setting allows the autoreclose scheme to reset from Lockout
when the breaker is manually closed regardless if the breaker remains closed or not. This setting overrides the previ-
ous setting (AR1 RESET LOCKOUT IF BREAKER CLOSED).
• AR1 BLK TIME UPON MNL CLS: The autoreclose scheme can be disabled for a programmable time delay after the
associated circuit breaker is manually closed. This prevents reclosing onto a fault after a manual close. This delay
must be longer than the slowest expected trip from any protection not blocked after manual closing. If no overcurrent
trips occur after a manual close and this time expires, the autoreclose scheme is enabled.
• AR1 DEAD TIME 1 to AR1 DEAD TIME 4: These are the intentional delays before first, second, third, and fourth
breaker automatic reclosures (1st, 2nd, and 3rd shots), respectively, and should be set longer than the estimated
deionizing time following a three pole trip.
• AR1 ADD DELAY 1: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that introduces an additional delay (Delay 1) to the ini-
tial set Dead Time (1 to 4). When this setting is “Off”, Delay 1 is by-passed.
• AR1 DELAY 1: This setting establishes the extent of the additional dead time Delay 1.
• AR1 ADD DELAY 2: This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that introduces an additional delay (Delay 2) to the ini-
tial set Dead Time (1 to 4). When this setting is “Off”, Delay 2 is by-passed.
• AR1 DELAY 2: This setting establishes the extent of the additional dead time Delay 2.
• AR1 RESET LOCKOUT DELAY: This setting establishes how long the breaker should stay closed after a manual
close command, in order for the autorecloser to reset from Lockout.
• AR1 RESET TIME: A reset timer output resets the recloser following a successful reclosure sequence. The setting is
based on the breaker ‘reclaim time’ which is the minimum time required between successive reclose sequences.
• AR1 INCOMPLETE SEQ TIME: This timer defines the maximum time interval allowed for a single reclose shot. It is
started whenever a reclosure is initiated and is active when the scheme is in the ‘reclose-in-progress’ state. If all condi-
tions allowing a breaker closure are not satisfied when this time expires, the scheme goes to “Lockout”.
This timer must be set to a delay less than the reset timer.

There are 48 identical digital elements available, numbered 1 to 48. A digital element can monitor any FlexLogic operand
and present a target message and/or enable events recording depending on the output operand state. The digital element
settings include a name which will be referenced in any target message, a blocking input from any selected FlexLogic oper-
and, and a timer for pickup and reset delays for the output operand.
• DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 INPUT: Selects a FlexLogic operand to be monitored by the digital element.
• DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 PICKUP DELAY: Sets the time delay to pickup. If a pickup delay is not required, set to "0".
• DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 RESET DELAY: Sets the time delay to reset. If a reset delay is not required, set to “0”.
• DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 PICKUP LED: This setting enables or disabled the digital element pickup LED. When set to
“Disabled”, the operation of the pickup LED is blocked.
Figure 5–100: DIGITAL ELEMENT SCHEME LOGIC

CIRCUIT MONITORING APPLICATIONS:
Some versions of the digital input modules include an active voltage monitor circuit connected across form-A contacts. The
voltage monitor circuit limits the trickle current through the output circuit (see technical specifications for form-A).

As long as the current through the voltage monitor is above a threshold (see technical specifications for form-A), the “Cont
Op 1 VOn” FlexLogic operand will be set (for contact input 1 – corresponding operands exist for each contact output). If the
output circuit has a high resistance or the DC current is interrupted, the trickle current will drop below the threshold and the
“Cont Op 1 VOff” FlexLogic operand will be set. Consequently, the state of these operands can be used as indicators of the
integrity of the circuits in which form-A contacts are inserted.
EXAMPLE 1: BREAKER TRIP CIRCUIT INTEGRITY MONITORING
In many applications it is desired to monitor the breaker trip circuit integrity so problems can be detected before a trip oper-
ation is required. The circuit is considered to be healthy when the voltage monitor connected across the trip output contact
detects a low level of current, well below the operating current of the breaker trip coil. If the circuit presents a high resis-
tance, the trickle current will fall below the monitor threshold and an alarm would be declared.
In most breaker control circuits, the trip coil is connected in series with a breaker auxiliary contact which is open when the
breaker is open (see diagram below). To prevent unwanted alarms in this situation, the trip circuit monitoring logic must
include the breaker position.

Assume the output contact H1 is a trip contact. Using the contact output settings, this output will be given an ID name; for
example, “Cont Op 1". Assume a 52a breaker auxiliary contact is connected to contact input H7a to monitor breaker status.
Using the contact input settings, this input will be given an ID name, for example, “Cont Ip 1", and will be set “On” when the
breaker is closed. The settings to use digital element 1 to monitor the breaker trip circuit are indicated below (EnerVista UR
Setup example shown):
The PICKUP DELAY setting should be greater than the operating time of the breaker to avoid nuisance alarms.
NOTE

EXAMPLE 2: BREAKER TRIP CIRCUIT INTEGRITY MONITORING

If it is required to monitor the trip circuit continuously, independent of the breaker position (open or closed), a method to
maintain the monitoring current flow through the trip circuit when the breaker is open must be provided (as shown in the fig-
ure below). This can be achieved by connecting a suitable resistor (see figure below) across the auxiliary contact in the trip
circuit. In this case, it is not required to supervise the monitoring circuit with the breaker position – the BLOCK setting is
selected to “Off”. In this case, the settings are as follows (EnerVista UR Setup example shown).

There are 8 identical digital counters, numbered from 1 to 8. A digital counter counts the number of state transitions from
Logic 0 to Logic 1. The counter is used to count operations such as the pickups of an element, the changes of state of an
external contact (e.g. breaker auxiliary switch), or pulses from a watt-hour meter.
• COUNTER 1 UNITS: Assigns a label to identify the unit of measure pertaining to the digital transitions to be counted.
The units label will appear in the corresponding actual values status.
• COUNTER 1 PRESET: Sets the count to a required preset value before counting operations begin, as in the case
where a substitute relay is to be installed in place of an in-service relay, or while the counter is running.
• COUNTER 1 COMPARE: Sets the value to which the accumulated count value is compared. Three FlexLogic output
operands are provided to indicate if the present value is ‘more than (HI)’, ‘equal to (EQL)’, or ‘less than (LO)’ the set
value.
• COUNTER 1 UP: Selects the FlexLogic operand for incrementing the counter. If an enabled UP input is received when
the accumulated value is at the limit of +2,147,483,647 counts, the counter will rollover to –2,147,483,648.
• COUNTER 1 DOWN: Selects the FlexLogic operand for decrementing the counter. If an enabled DOWN input is
received when the accumulated value is at the limit of –2,147,483,648 counts, the counter will rollover to
+2,147,483,647.
• COUNTER 1 BLOCK: Selects the FlexLogic operand for blocking the counting operation. All counter operands are
blocked.

• CNT1 SET TO PRESET: Selects the FlexLogic operand used to set the count to the preset value. The counter will be
set to the preset value in the following situations:
1. When the counter is enabled and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the value 1 (when the counter is enabled
and CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand is 0, the counter will be set to 0).
2. When the counter is running and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand changes the state from 0 to 1 (CNT1 SET TO
PRESET changing from 1 to 0 while the counter is running has no effect on the count).
3. When a reset or reset/freeze command is sent to the counter and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the value
1 (when a reset or reset/freeze command is sent to the counter and the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand has the
value 0, the counter will be set to 0).

There is one breaker arcing current element available per CT bank, with a minimum of two elements. This element calcu-
lates an estimate of the per-phase wear on the breaker contacts by measuring and integrating the current squared passing
through the breaker contacts as an arc. These per-phase values are added to accumulated totals for each phase and com-
pared to a programmed threshold value. When the threshold is exceeded in any phase, the relay can set an output operand
to “1”. The accumulated value for each phase can be displayed as an actual value.
The operation of the scheme is shown in the following logic diagram. The same output operand that is selected to operate
the output relay used to trip the breaker, indicating a tripping sequence has begun, is used to initiate this feature. A time
delay is introduced between initiation and the starting of integration to prevent integration of current flow through the
breaker before the contacts have parted. This interval includes the operating time of the output relay, any other auxiliary
relays and the breaker mechanism. For maximum measurement accuracy, the interval between change-of-state of the
operand (from 0 to 1) and contact separation should be measured for the specific installation. Integration of the measured
current continues for 100 ms, which is expected to include the total arcing period.
The feature is programmed to perform fault duration calculations. Fault duration is defined as a time between operation of
the disturbance detector occurring before initiation of this feature, and reset of an internal low-set overcurrent function. Cor-
rection is implemented to account for a non-zero reset time of the overcurrent function.

The CT failure function is designed to detect problems with system current transformers used to supply current to the relay.
This logic detects the presence of a zero-sequence current at the supervised source of current without a simultaneous
zero-sequence current at another source, zero-sequence voltage, or some protection element condition.
The CT failure logic (see below) is based on the presence of the zero-sequence current in the supervised CT source and
the absence of one of three or all of the three following conditions.
1. Zero-sequence current at different source current (may be different set of CTs or different CT core of the same CT).
2. Zero-sequence voltage at the assigned source.
3. Appropriate protection element or remote signal.
The CT failure settings are described below.
• CT FAIL FUNCTION: This setting enables or disables operation of the CT failure element.
• CT FAIL BLOCK: This setting selects a FlexLogic operand to block operation of the element during some condition
(for example, an open pole in process of the single pole tripping-reclosing) when CT fail should be blocked. Local sig-
nals or remote signals representing operation of some remote current protection elements via communication chan-
nels can also be chosen.
• CT FAIL 3I0 INPUT 1: This setting selects the current source for input 1. The most critical protection element should
also be assigned to the same source.
• CT FAIL 3I0 INPUT 1 PICKUP: This setting selects the 3I_0 pickup value for input 1 (the main supervised CT source).
• CT FAIL 3I0 INPUT 2: This setting selects the current source for input 2. Input 2 should use a different set of CTs or a
different CT core of the same CT. If 3I_0 does not exist at source 2, then a CT failure is declared.
• CT FAIL 3I0 INPUT 2 PICKUP: This setting selects the 3I_0 pickup value for input 2 (different CT input) of the relay.
• CT FAIL 3V0 INPUT: This setting selects the voltage source.

• CT FAIL 3V0 INPUT PICKUP: This setting specifies the pickup value for the 3V_0 source.
• CT FAIL PICKUP DELAY: This setting specifies the pickup delay of the CT failure element.

Every signal source includes a fuse failure scheme.

The VT fuse failure detector can be used to raise an alarm and/or block elements that may operate incorrectly for a full or
partial loss of AC potential caused by one or more blown fuses. Some elements that might be blocked (via the BLOCK input)
are distance, voltage restrained overcurrent, and directional current.
There are two classes of fuse failure that occur:
• Class A: loss of one or two phases.
• Class B: loss of all three phases.
Different means of detection are required for each class. An indication of class A failures is a significant level of negative-
sequence voltage, whereas an indication of class B failures is when positive sequence current is present and there is an
insignificant amount of positive sequence voltage. Also rapid decrease in the phase voltages magnitude from a healthy
voltage level without disturbance in current can indicate a VT fuse fail conditions. These noted indications of fuse failure
can also be present when faults are present on the system, so a means of detecting faults and inhibiting fuse failure decla-
rations during these events is provided.
Once the fuse failure condition is declared, it is sealed-in until the cause that generated it disappears.
An additional condition is introduced to inhibit a fuse failure declaration when the monitored circuit is de-energized; positive-
sequence voltage and current are both below threshold levels.
The VT FUSE FAILURE 1 FUNCTION setting enables and disables the fuse failure feature for each source.

The VT NEU WIRE OPEN 1 FUNCTION setting enables and disables the VT neutral wire open detection function. When the
VT is connected in Delta, do not enabled this function because there is no neutral wire for Delta connected VT.

Two broken conductor detection elements are provided.
The broken conductor function will detect a transmission line broken conductor condition or a single-pole breaker malfunc-
tion condition through checking the phase current input signals and the I_2 / I_1 ratio. The intention of this function is to
detect a single-phase broken conductor only. As such two-phase or three-phase broken conductors cannot be detected.
To distinguish between single-phase disappearance and system disturbance in all three phases (such as load change,
switching, etc.), the broken conductor element monitors the change in all three phase currents at the present instance and
at four cycles previous. It also monitors changes in the I_2 / I_1 ratio, I_1 minimum, and I_1 maximum.
The broken conductor function should not be used to respond to fault transients and single-pole tripping/reclosing condi-
tions. Therefore, the time delay should be programmed to a sufficient length to ensure coordination with the breaker dead
time of the recloser function.
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 FUNCTION: This setting enables and disables the broken conductor function.
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 SOURCE: This setting selects a signal source used to provide three-phase current inputs
to this function.
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 I2/I1 RATIO: This setting specifies the ratio of negative-sequence current to positive-
sequence current. When one phase conductor is broken, the I_2 / I_1 ratio with a balanced remaining two phases is
50%. So normally this setting should be set below 50% (for example, to 30%).
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 I1 MIN: This setting specifies the minimum positive-sequence current supervision level.
Ensure this setting is programmed to a sufficient level to prevent I_2 / I_1 from erratic pickup due to a low I_1 signal.
However, this setting should not be set too high, since the broken conductor condition cannot be detected under light
load conditions when I_1 is less than the value specified by this setting.
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 I1 MAX: This setting specifies the maximum I_1 level allowed for the broken conductor
function to operate. When I_1 exceeds this setting, this it is considered a fault. This broken conductor function should
not respond to any fault conditions, so normally this setting is programmed to less than the maximum load current.
• BROKEN CONDUCTOR 1 PKP DELAY: This setting specifies the pickup time delay for this function to operate after
assertion of the broken conductor pickup FlexLogic operand.

The thermal overload protection element corresponds to the IEC 255-8 standard and is used to detect thermal overload
conditions in protected power system elements. Choosing an appropriate time constant element can be used to protect dif-
ferent elements of the power system. The cold curve characteristic is applied when the previous averaged load current over
the last 5 cycles is less than 10% of the base current. If this current is greater or equal than 10% than the base current, then
the hot curve characteristic is applied.

The IEC255-8 cold curve is defined as follows:

In the above equations,

• τop = thermal protection trip time constant.
• I = measured overload RMS current.
• Ip = measured load RMS current before overload occurs.
• k= IEC 255-8 k-factor applied to IB, defining maximum permissible current above nominal current.

The thermal overload protection element estimates accumulated thermal energy E using the following equations calculated
each power cycle. When current is greater than the pickup level, In > k × IB, element starts increasing the thermal energy:
t
E n = E n – 1 + --------------- (EQ 5.26)
t op  In 
When current is less than the dropout level, In > 0.97 × k × IB, the element starts decreasing the thermal energy:
t -
E n = E n – 1 – -------------- (EQ 5.27)
t rst  In 
In the above equations,

• Δt is the power cycle duration.
• n is the power cycle index.
• top(In) is the trip time calculated at index n as per the IEC255-8 cold curve or hot curve equations.
• trst(In) is the reset time calculated at index n as per the reset time equation.
• In is the measured overload RMS current at index n.

• En is the accumulated energy at index n.

• En – 1 is the accumulated energy at index n – 1.
The thermal overload protection element removes the THERMAL PROT 1 OP output operand when E < 0.05. In case of
emergency, the thermal memory and THERMAL PROT 1 OP output operand can be reset using THERM PROT 1 RESET setting.
All calculations are performed per phase. If the accumulated energy reaches value 1 in any phase, the thermal overload
protection element operates and only resets when energy is less than 0.05 in all three phases.

The contact inputs menu contains configuration settings for each contact input as well as voltage thresholds for each group
of four contact inputs. Upon startup, the relay processor determines (from an assessment of the installed modules) which
contact inputs are available and then display settings for only those inputs.
An alphanumeric ID may be assigned to a contact input for diagnostic, setting, and event recording purposes. The CON-
TACT IP X On” (Logic 1) FlexLogic operand corresponds to contact input “X” being closed, while CONTACT IP X Off corre-
sponds to contact input “X” being open. The CONTACT INPUT DEBNCE TIME defines the time required for the contact to
overcome ‘contact bouncing’ conditions. As this time differs for different contact types and manufacturers, set it as a maxi-
mum contact debounce time (per manufacturer specifications) plus some margin to ensure proper operation. If CONTACT
INPUT EVENTS is set to “Enabled”, every change in the contact input state will trigger an event.
A raw status is scanned for all Contact Inputs synchronously at the constant rate of 0.5 ms as shown in the figure below.
The DC input voltage is compared to a user-settable threshold. A new contact input state must be maintained for a user-
settable debounce time in order for the L30 to validate the new contact state. In the figure below, the debounce time is set
at 2.5 ms; thus the 6th sample in a row validates the change of state (mark no. 1 in the diagram). Once validated (de-
bounced), the contact input asserts a corresponding FlexLogic operand and logs an event as per user setting.
A time stamp of the first sample in the sequence that validates the new state is used when logging the change of the con-
tact input into the Event Recorder (mark no. 2 in the diagram).
Protection and control elements, as well as FlexLogic equations and timers, are executed eight times in a power system
cycle. The protection pass duration is controlled by the frequency tracking mechanism. The FlexLogic operand reflecting
the debounced state of the contact is updated at the protection pass following the validation (marks no. 3 and 4 on the fig-
ure below). The update is performed at the beginning of the protection pass so all protection and control functions, as well
as FlexLogic equations, are fed with the updated states of the contact inputs.

5 SETTINGS 5.8 INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
The FlexLogic operand response time to the contact input change is equal to the debounce time setting plus up to one pro-
tection pass (variable and depending on system frequency if frequency tracking enabled). If the change of state occurs just
after a protection pass, the recognition is delayed until the subsequent protection pass; that is, by the entire duration of the
protection pass. If the change occurs just prior to a protection pass, the state is recognized immediately. Statistically a delay
of half the protection pass is expected. Owing to the 0.5 ms scan rate, the time resolution for the input contact is below
1msec.
For example, 8 protection passes per cycle on a 60 Hz system correspond to a protection pass every 2.1 ms. With a con-
tact debounce time setting of 3.0 ms, the FlexLogic operand-assert time limits are: 3.0 + 0.0 = 3.0 ms and 3.0 + 2.1 = 5.1
ms. These time limits depend on how soon the protection pass runs after the debouncing time.
Regardless of the contact debounce time setting, the contact input event is time-stamped with a 1 s accuracy using the
time of the first scan corresponding to the new state (mark no. 2 below). Therefore, the time stamp reflects a change in the
DC voltage across the contact input terminals that was not accidental as it was subsequently validated using the debounce

Contact inputs are isolated in groups of four to allow connection of wet contacts from different voltage sources for each
group. The CONTACT INPUT THRESHOLDS determine the minimum voltage required to detect a closed contact input. This
value should be selected according to the following criteria: 17 for 24 V sources, 33 for 48 V sources, 84 for 110 to 125 V
sources and 166 for 250 V sources.
For example, to use contact input H5a as a status input from the breaker 52b contact to seal-in the trip relay and record it in
the Event Records menu, make the following settings changes:
CONTACT INPUT H5A ID: "Breaker Closed (52b)"
CONTACT INPUT H5A EVENTS: "Enabled"
Note that the 52b contact is closed when the breaker is open and open when the breaker is closed.

There are 64 virtual inputs that can be individually programmed to respond to input signals from the keypad (via the COM-
MANDS menu) and communications protocols. All virtual input operands are defaulted to “Off” (logic 0) unless the appropri-
ate input signal is received.
If the VIRTUAL INPUT x FUNCTION is to “Disabled”, the input will be forced to off (logic 0) regardless of any attempt to alter the
input. If set to “Enabled”, the input operates as shown on the logic diagram and generates output FlexLogic operands in
response to received input signals and the applied settings.
There are two types of operation: self-reset and latched. If VIRTUAL INPUT x TYPE is “Self-Reset”, when the input signal tran-
sits from off to on, the output operand will be set to on for only one evaluation of the FlexLogic equations and then return to
off. If set to “Latched”, the virtual input sets the state of the output operand to the same state as the most recent received
input.
5 The self-reset operating mode generates the output operand for a single evaluation of the FlexLogic equations. If
the operand is to be used anywhere other than internally in a FlexLogic equation, it will likely have to be lengthened

Upon startup of the relay, the main processor will determine from an assessment of the modules installed in the chassis
which contact outputs are available and present the settings for only these outputs.
An ID may be assigned to each contact output. The signal that can OPERATE a contact output may be any FlexLogic oper-
and (virtual output, element state, contact input, or virtual input). An additional FlexLogic operand may be used to SEAL-IN
the relay. Any change of state of a contact output can be logged as an Event if programmed to do so.
For example, the trip circuit current is monitored by providing a current threshold detector in series with some Form-A con-
tacts (see the trip circuit example in the Digital elements section). The monitor will set a flag (see the specifications for
Form-A). The name of the FlexLogic operand set by the monitor, consists of the output relay designation, followed by the
name of the flag; for example, CONT OP 1 ION.
In most breaker control circuits, the trip coil is connected in series with a breaker auxiliary contact used to interrupt current 5
flow after the breaker has tripped, to prevent damage to the less robust initiating contact. This can be done by monitoring
an auxiliary contact on the breaker which opens when the breaker has tripped, but this scheme is subject to incorrect oper-
ation caused by differences in timing between breaker auxiliary contact change-of-state and interruption of current in the
trip circuit. The most dependable protection of the initiating contact is provided by directly measuring current in the tripping
circuit, and using this parameter to control resetting of the initiating relay. This scheme is often called trip seal-in.
This can be realized in the L30 using the CONT OP 1 ION FlexLogic operand to seal-in the contact output as follows:
CONTACT OUTPUT H1 ID: “Cont Op 1"
OUTPUT H1 OPERATE: any suitable FlexLogic operand
OUTPUT H1 SEAL-IN: “Cont Op 1 IOn”

The L30 latching output contacts are mechanically bi-stable and controlled by two separate (open and close) coils. As such
they retain their position even if the relay is not powered up. The relay recognizes all latching output contact cards and pop-
ulates the setting menu accordingly. On power up, the relay reads positions of the latching contacts from the hardware
before executing any other functions of the relay (such as protection and control features or FlexLogic).
The latching output modules, either as a part of the relay or as individual modules, are shipped from the factory with all
latching contacts opened. It is highly recommended to double-check the programming and positions of the latching con-
tacts when replacing a module.
Since the relay asserts the output contact and reads back its position, it is possible to incorporate self-monitoring capabili-
ties for the latching outputs. If any latching outputs exhibits a discrepancy, the LATCHING OUTPUT ERROR self-test error is
declared. The error is signaled by the LATCHING OUT ERROR FlexLogic operand, event, and target message.
• OUTPUT H1a OPERATE: This setting specifies a FlexLogic operand to operate the ‘close coil’ of the contact. The
relay will seal-in this input to safely close the contact. Once the contact is closed and the RESET input is logic 0 (off),
any activity of the OPERATE input, such as subsequent chattering, will not have any effect. With both the OPERATE and
RESET inputs active (logic 1), the response of the latching contact is specified by the OUTPUT H1A TYPE setting.
• OUTPUT H1a RESET: This setting specifies a FlexLogic operand to operate the ‘trip coil’ of the contact. The relay will
seal-in this input to safely open the contact. Once the contact is opened and the OPERATE input is logic 0 (off), any
activity of the RESET input, such as subsequent chattering, will not have any effect. With both the OPERATE and RESET
inputs active (logic 1), the response of the latching contact is specified by the OUTPUT H1A TYPE setting.
• OUTPUT H1a TYPE: This setting specifies the contact response under conflicting control inputs; that is, when both the
OPERATE and RESET signals are applied. With both control inputs applied simultaneously, the contact will close if set to
“Operate-dominant” and will open if set to “Reset-dominant”.
Application Example 1:
5 A latching output contact H1a is to be controlled from two user-programmable pushbuttons (buttons number 1 and 2). The
following settings should be applied.
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS  INPUTS/OUTPUTS  CONTACT OUT-
PUTS  CONTACT OUTPUT H1a menu (assuming an H4L module):

A relay, having two latching contacts H1a and H1c, is to be programmed. The H1a contact is to be a Type-a contact, while
the H1c contact is to be a Type-b contact (Type-a means closed after exercising the operate input; Type-b means closed
after exercising the reset input). The relay is to be controlled from virtual outputs: VO1 to operate and VO2 to reset.
PUTS  CONTACT OUTPUT H1a and CONTACT OUTPUT H1c menus (assuming an H4L module):
OUTPUT H1a OPERATE: “VO1” OUTPUT H1c OPERATE: “VO2”

OUTPUT H1a RESET: “VO2” OUTPUT H1c RESET: “VO1”
Since the two physical contacts in this example are mechanically separated and have individual control inputs, they will not
operate at exactly the same time. A discrepancy in the range of a fraction of a maximum operating time may occur. There-
fore, a pair of contacts programmed to be a multi-contact relay will not guarantee any specific sequence of operation (such
as make before break). If required, the sequence of operation must be programmed explicitly by delaying some of the con-
trol inputs as shown in the next application example.
A make before break functionality must be added to the preceding example. An overlap of 20 ms is required to implement
this functionality as described below:

Write the following FlexLogic equation (EnerVista UR Setup example shown):
Both timers (Timer 1 and Timer 2) should be set to 20 ms pickup and 0 ms dropout.

A latching contact H1a is to be controlled from a single virtual output VO1. The contact should stay closed as long as VO1
is high, and should stay opened when VO1 is low. Program the relay as follows.

There are 96 virtual outputs that may be assigned via FlexLogic. If not assigned, the output will be forced to ‘OFF’ (Logic 0).
An ID may be assigned to each virtual output. Virtual outputs are resolved in each pass through the evaluation of the Flex-
Logic equations. Any change of state of a virtual output can be logged as an event if programmed to do so.
For example, if Virtual Output 1 is the trip signal from FlexLogic and the trip relay is used to signal events, the settings
would be programmed as follows:

5.8.5 REMOTE DEVICES
a) REMOTE INPUTS AND OUTPUTS OVERVIEW

Remote inputs and outputs provide a means of exchanging digital state information between Ethernet-networked devices.
The IEC 61850 GSSE (Generic Substation State Event) and GOOSE (Generic Object Oriented Substation Event) stan-
dards are used.
The sharing of digital point state information between GSSE/GOOSE equipped relays is essentially an extension to Flex-
Logic, allowing distributed FlexLogic by making operands available to/from devices on a common communications net-
work. In addition to digital point states, GSSE/GOOSE messages identify the originator of the message and provide other
information required by the communication specification. All devices listen to network messages and capture data only from
messages that have originated in selected devices.
IEC 61850 GSSE messages are compatible with UCA GOOSE messages and contain a fixed set of digital points. IEC
61850 GOOSE messages can, in general, contain any configurable data items. When used by the remote input/output fea-
ture, IEC 61850 GOOSE messages contain the same data as GSSE messages.
Both GSSE and GOOSE messages are designed to be short, reliable, and high priority. GOOSE messages have additional
advantages over GSSE messages due to their support of VLAN (virtual LAN) and Ethernet priority tagging functionality.
The GSSE message structure contains space for 128 bit pairs representing digital point state information. The IEC 61850
specification provides 32 “DNA” bit pairs that represent the state of two pre-defined events and 30 user-defined events. All
remaining bit pairs are “UserSt” bit pairs, which are status bits representing user-definable events. The L30 implementation
provides 32 of the 96 available UserSt bit pairs.
5 The IEC 61850 specification includes features that are used to cope with the loss of communication between transmitting
and receiving devices. Each transmitting device will send a GSSE/GOOSE message upon a successful power-up, when
the state of any included point changes, or after a specified interval (the default update time) if a change-of-state has not
occurred. The transmitting device also sends a ‘hold time’ which is set greater than four times the programmed default time
required by the receiving device.
Receiving devices are constantly monitoring the communications network for messages they require, as recognized by the
identification of the originating device carried in the message. Messages received from remote devices include the mes-
sage time allowed to live. The receiving relay sets a timer assigned to the originating device to this time interval, and if it
has not received another message from this device at time-out, the remote device is declared to be non-communicating, so
it will use the programmed default state for all points from that specific remote device. If a message is received from a
remote device before the time allowed to live expires, all points for that device are updated to the states contained in the
message and the hold timer is restarted. The status of a remote device, where “Offline” indicates non-communicating, can
be displayed.
The remote input/output facility provides for 32 remote inputs and 64 remote outputs.
The L90 provides an additional method of sharing digital point state information among different relays: direct messages.
Direct messages are only used between UR-series relays inter-connected via dedicated type 7X communications modules,
usually between substations. The digital state data conveyed by direct messages are direct inputs and direct outputs.
b) DIRECT MESSAGES
Direct messages are only used between UR-series relays containing the type 7X UR communications module. These mes-
sages are transmitted every one-half of the power frequency cycle (10 ms for 50 Hz and 8.33 ms for 60 Hz) This facility is
of particular value for pilot schemes and transfer tripping. Direct messaging is available on both single channel and dual
channel communications modules. The inputs and outputs on communications channel 1 are numbered 1-1 through 1-8,
and the inputs and outputs on communications channel 2 are numbered 2-1 through 2-8.
Settings associated with direct messages are automatically presented in accordance with the number of
channels provided in the communications module in a specific relay.
NOTE

Remote devices are available for setting purposes. A receiving relay must be programmed to capture messages from only
those originating remote devices of interest. This setting is used to select specific remote devices by entering (bottom row)
the exact identification (ID) assigned to those devices.
The REMOTE DEVICE 1 ETYPE APPID setting is only used with GOOSE messages; they are not applicable to GSSE mes-
sages. This setting identifies the Ethernet application identification in the GOOSE message. It should match the corre-
sponding settings on the sending device.
The REMOTE DEVICE 1 DATASET setting provides for the choice of the L30 fixed (DNA/UserSt) dataset (that is, containing
DNA and UserSt bit pairs), or one of the configurable datasets.
Note that the dataset for the received data items must be made up of existing items in an existing logical node. For this rea-
son, logical node GGIO3 is instantiated to hold the incoming data items. GGIO3 is not necessary to make use of the
received data. The remote input data item mapping takes care of the mapping of the inputs to remote input FlexLogic oper-
ands. However, GGIO3 data can be read by IEC 61850 clients.

Remote Inputs that create FlexLogic operands at the receiving relay are extracted from GSSE/GOOSE messages originat-
ing in remote devices. Each remote input can be selected from a list consisting of: DNA-1 through DNA-32, UserSt-1
through UserSt-32, and Dataset Item 1 through Dataset Item 32. The function of DNA inputs is defined in the IEC 61850
specification and is presented in the IEC 61850 DNA Assignments table in the Remote outputs section. The function of
UserSt inputs is defined by the user selection of the FlexLogic operand whose state is represented in the GSSE/GOOSE
message. A user must program a DNA point from the appropriate FlexLogic operand.
Remote input 1 must be programmed to replicate the logic state of a specific signal from a specific remote device for local
use. This programming is performed via the three settings shown above.
The REMOTE INPUT 1 ID setting allows the user to assign descriptive text to the remote input. The REMOTE IN 1 DEVICE setting
selects the remote device which originates the required signal, as previously assigned to the remote device via the setting
REMOTE DEVICE (16) ID (see the Remote devices section). The REMOTE IN 1 ITEM setting selects the specific bits of the
GSSE/GOOSE message required.
The REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE setting selects the logic state for this point if the local relay has just completed startup or
the remote device sending the point is declared to be non-communicating. The following choices are available:

• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “On” value defaults the input to logic 1.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Off” value defaults the input to logic 0.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Latest/On” freezes the input in case of lost communications. If the latest state is
not known, such as after relay power-up but before the first communication exchange, the input will default to logic 1.
When communication resumes, the input becomes fully operational.
• Setting REMOTE IN 1 DEFAULT STATE to “Latest/Off” freezes the input in case of lost communications. If the latest state is
not known, such as after relay power-up but before the first communication exchange, the input will default to logic 0.
When communication resumes, the input becomes fully operational.

5.8.9 DIRECT INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
5 a) DESCRIPTION
The relay provides eight direct inputs conveyed on communications channel 1 (numbered 1-1 through 1-8) and eight direct
inputs conveyed on communications channel 2 (on three-terminal systems only, numbered 2-1 through 2-8). The user must
program the remote relay connected to channels 1 and 2 of the local relay by assigning the desired FlexLogic operand to
be sent via the selected communications channel.
This relay allows the user to create distributed protection and control schemes via dedicated communications channels.
Some examples are directional comparison pilot schemes and transfer tripping. It should be noted that failures of communi-
cations channels will affect direct input/output functionality. The 87L function must be enabled to utilize the direct inputs.
Direct input and output FlexLogic operands to be used at the local relay are assigned as follows:
• Direct input/output 1-1 through direct input/output 1-8 for communications channel 1.
• Direct input/output 2-1 through direct input/output 2-8 for communications channel 2 (three-terminal systems only).
On the two-terminal, two channel system (redundant channel), direct outputs 1-1 to 1-8 are send over both chan-
nels simultaneously and are received separately as direct inputs 1-1 to 1-8 at channel 1 and direct inputs 2-1 to 2-8
NOTE at channel 2. Therefore, to take advantage of redundancy, the respective operands from channel 1 and 2 can be
ORed with FlexLogic or mapped separately.

The DIRECT INPUT 1-1(8) DEFAULT setting selects the logic state of this particular bit used for this point if the local relay has
just completed startup or the local communications channel is declared to have failed. Setting DIRECT INPUT 1-1(8) DEFAULT
to “On” means that the corresponding local FlexLogic operand (DIRECT I/P 1-1(8)) will have logic state “1” on relay startup or
during communications channel failure. When the channel is restored, the operand logic state reflects the actual state of
the corresponding remote direct output.

Some events can be programmed to latch the faceplate LED event indicators and the target message on the display. Once
set, the latching mechanism will hold all of the latched indicators or messages in the set state after the initiating condition
has cleared until a RESET command is received to return these latches (not including FlexLogic latches) to the reset state.
The RESET command can be sent from the faceplate Reset button, a remote device via a communications channel, or any
programmed operand.
When the RESET command is received by the relay, two FlexLogic operands are created. These operands, which are

The IEC 61850 GOOSE analog inputs feature allows the transmission of analog values between any two UR-series
devices. The following settings are available for each GOOSE analog input.
• ANALOG 1 DEFAULT: This setting specifies the value of the GOOSE analog input when the sending device is offline
and the ANALOG 1 DEFAULT MODE is set to “Default Value”.This setting is stored as an IEEE 754 / IEC 60559 floating
point number. Because of the large range of this setting, not all possible values can be stored. Some values may be
rounded to the closest possible floating point number.
• ANALOG 1 DEFAULT MODE: When the sending device is offline and this setting is “Last Known”, the value of the
GOOSE analog input remains at the last received value. When the sending device is offline and this setting value is
“Default Value”, then the value of the GOOSE analog input is defined by the ANALOG 1 DEFAULT setting.
• GOOSE ANALOG 1 UNITS: This setting specifies a four-character alphanumeric string that can is used in the actual

Hardware and software is provided to receive signals from external transducers and convert these signals into a digital for-
mat for use as required. The relay will accept inputs in the range of –1 to +20 mA DC, suitable for use with most common
transducer output ranges; all inputs are assumed to be linear over the complete range. Specific hardware details are con-
tained in chapter 3.
Before the dcmA input signal can be used, the value of the signal measured by the relay must be converted to the range
and quantity of the external transducer primary input parameter, such as DC voltage or temperature. The relay simplifies
this process by internally scaling the output from the external transducer and displaying the actual primary parameter.
5
dcmA input channels are arranged in a manner similar to CT and VT channels. The user configures individual channels
with the settings shown here.
The channels are arranged in sub-modules of two channels, numbered from 1 through 8 from top to bottom. On power-up,
the relay will automatically generate configuration settings for every channel, based on the order code, in the same general
manner that is used for CTs and VTs. Each channel is assigned a slot letter followed by the row number, 1 through 8 inclu-
sive, which is used as the channel number. The relay generates an actual value for each available input channel.
Settings are automatically generated for every channel available in the specific relay as shown above for the first channel of
a type 5F transducer module installed in slot H.
The function of the channel may be either “Enabled” or “Disabled”. If “Disabled”, no actual values are created for the chan-
nel. An alphanumeric “ID” is assigned to each channel; this ID will be included in the channel actual value, along with the
programmed units associated with the parameter measured by the transducer, such as volts, °C, megawatts, etc. This ID is
also used to reference the channel as the input parameter to features designed to measure this type of parameter. The
DCMA INPUT H1 RANGE setting specifies the mA DC range of the transducer connected to the input channel.
The DCMA INPUT H1 MIN VALUE and DCMA INPUT H1 MAX VALUE settings are used to program the span of the transducer in
primary units. For example, a temperature transducer might have a span from 0 to 250°C; in this case the DCMA INPUT H1
MIN VALUE value is “0” and the DCMA INPUT H1 MAX VALUE value is “250”. Another example would be a watts transducer with
a span from –20 to +180 MW; in this case the DCMA INPUT H1 MIN VALUE value would be “–20” and the DCMA INPUT H1 MAX
VALUE value “180”. Intermediate values between the min and max values are scaled linearly.

5 the channel. An alphanumeric ID is assigned to the channel; this ID will be included in the channel actual values. It is also
used to reference the channel as the input parameter to features designed to measure this type of parameter. Selecting the
type of RTD connected to the channel configures the channel.
Actions based on RTD overtemperature, such as trips or alarms, are done in conjunction with the FlexElements feature. In
FlexElements, the operate level is scaled to a base of 100°C. For example, a trip level of 150°C is achieved by setting the
operate level at 1.5 pu. FlexElement operands are available to FlexLogic for further interlocking or to operate an output
contact directly.

Hardware and software is provided to generate dcmA signals that allow interfacing with external equipment. Specific hard-
ware details are contained in chapter 3. The dcmA output channels are arranged in a manner similar to transducer input or
CT and VT channels. The user configures individual channels with the settings shown below.
The channels are arranged in sub-modules of two channels, numbered 1 through 8 from top to bottom. On power-up, the
relay automatically generates configuration settings for every channel, based on the order code, in the same manner used
for CTs and VTs. Each channel is assigned a slot letter followed by the row number, 1 through 8 inclusive, which is used as
the channel number.
Both the output range and a signal driving a given output are user-programmable via the following settings menu (an exam-
ple for channel M5 is shown).
5 The relay checks the driving signal (x in equations below) for the minimum and maximum limits, and subsequently re-
scales so the limits defined as MIN VAL and MAX VAL match the output range of the hardware defined as RANGE. The follow-
ing equation is applied:
 I min if x  MIN VAL


I out =  I max if x  MAX VAL (EQ 5.28)

The dcmA output settings are described below.

• DCMA OUTPUT H1 SOURCE: This setting specifies an internal analog value to drive the analog output. Actual values
(FlexAnalog parameters) such as power, current amplitude, voltage amplitude, power factor, etc. can be configured as
sources driving dcmA outputs. Refer to Appendix A for a complete list of FlexAnalog parameters.
• DCMA OUTPUT H1 RANGE: This setting allows selection of the output range. Each dcmA channel may be set inde-
pendently to work with different ranges. The three most commonly used output ranges are available.
• DCMA OUTPUT H1 MIN VAL: This setting allows setting the minimum limit for the signal that drives the output. This
setting is used to control the mapping between an internal analog value and the output current. The setting is entered
in per-unit values. The base units are defined in the same manner as the FlexElement base units.
• DCMA OUTPUT H1 MAX VAL: This setting allows setting the maximum limit for the signal that drives the output. This
setting is used to control the mapping between an internal analog value and the output current. The setting is entered
in per-unit values. The base units are defined in the same manner as the FlexElement base units.
The DCMA OUTPUT H1 MIN VAL and DCMA OUTPUT H1 MAX VAL settings are ignored for power factor base units (i.e. if
the DCMA OUTPUT H1 SOURCE is set to FlexAnalog value based on power factor measurement).
NOTE
Three application examples are described below.

EXAMPLE: POWER MONITORING
A three phase active power on a 13.8 kV system measured via UR-series relay source 1 is to be monitored by the dcmA H1
output of the range of –1 to 1 mA. The following settings are applied on the relay: CT ratio = 1200:5, VT secondary 115, VT
connection is delta, and VT ratio = 120. The nominal current is 800 A primary and the nominal power factor is 0.90. The
power is to be monitored in both importing and exporting directions and allow for 20% overload compared to the nominal.
The nominal three-phase power is:
5
P = 3  13.8 kV  0.8 kA  0.9 = 17.21 MW (EQ 5.30)
The three-phase power with 20% overload margin is:

P max = 1.2  17.21 MW = 20.65 MW (EQ 5.31)
The base unit for power (refer to the FlexElements section in this chapter for additional details) is:
P BASE = 115 V  120  1.2 kA = 16.56 MW (EQ 5.32)
The minimum and maximum power values to be monitored (in pu) are:
20.65 MW = – 1.247 pu, maximum power = 20.65 MW- = 1.247 pu
minimum power = –------------------------------ -------------------------- (EQ 5.33)
16.56 MW 16.56 MW
The following settings should be entered:
DCMA OUTPUT H1 SOURCE: “SRC 1 P”
DCMA OUTPUT H1 RANGE: “–1 to 1 mA”
DCMA OUTPUT H1 MIN VAL: “–1.247 pu”
DCMA OUTPUT H1 MAX VAL: “1.247 pu”
With the above settings, the output will represent the power with the scale of 1 mA per 20.65 MW. The worst-case error for
this application can be calculated by superimposing the following two sources of error:
• ±0.5% of the full scale for the analog output module, or  0.005   1 –  – 1    20.65 MW =  0.207 MW
• ±1% of reading error for the active power at power factor of 0.9
For example at the reading of 20 MW, the worst-case error is 0.01  20 MW + 0.207 MW = 0.407 MW.
EXAMPLE: CURRENT MONITORING
The phase A current (true RMS value) is to be monitored via the H2 current output working with the range from 4 to 20 mA.
The CT ratio is 5000:5 and the maximum load current is 4200 A. The current should be monitored from 0 A upwards, allow-
ing for 50% overload.
The phase current with the 50% overload margin is:

I max = 1.5  4.2 kA = 6.3 kA (EQ 5.34)
The base unit for current (refer to the FlexElements section in this chapter for additional details) is:
I BASE = 5 kA (EQ 5.35)
The minimum and maximum power values to be monitored (in pu) are:
minimum current = 0 kA- = 0 pu, maximum current = 6.3 kA- = 1.26 pu

----------- ---------------- (EQ 5.36)
5 kA 5 kA
DCMA OUTPUT H2 SOURCE: “SRC 1 Ia RMS”
DCMA OUTPUT H2 RANGE: “4 to 20 mA”
DCMA OUTPUT H2 MIN VAL: “0.000 pu”
The worst-case error for this application could be calculated by superimposing the following two sources of error:
• ±0.5% of the full scale for the analog output module, or  0.005   20 – 4   6.3 kA =  0.504 kA
• ±0.25% of reading or ±0.1% of rated (whichever is greater) for currents between 0.1 and 2.0 of nominal
For example, at the reading of 4.2 kA, the worst-case error is max(0.0025  4.2 kA, 0.001  5 kA) + 0.504 kA = 0.515 kA.
EXAMPLE: VOLTAGE MONITORING
A positive-sequence voltage on a 400 kV system measured via source 2 is to be monitored by the dcmA H3 output with a
range of 0 to 1 mA. The VT secondary setting is 66.4 V, the VT ratio setting is 6024, and the VT connection setting is
“Delta”. The voltage should be monitored in the range from 70% to 110% of nominal.
5 The minimum and maximum positive-sequence voltages to be monitored are:
400 kV 400 kV
V min = 0.7  ------------------- = 161.66 kV, V max = 1.1  ------------------- = 254.03 kV (EQ 5.37)
3 3
The base unit for voltage (refer to the FlexElements section in this chapter for additional details) is:
V BASE = 0.0664 kV  6024 = 400 kV (EQ 5.38)
The minimum and maximum voltage values to be monitored (in pu) are:
minimum voltage = 161.66 kV- = 0.404 pu, maximum voltage = 254.03 kV- = 0.635 pu
-------------------------- -------------------------- (EQ 5.39)
400 kV 400 kV
DCMA OUTPUT H3 SOURCE: “SRC 2 V_1 mag”
DCMA OUTPUT H3 RANGE: “0 to 1 mA”
DCMA OUTPUT H3 MIN VAL: “0.404 pu”
The limit settings differ from the expected 0.7 pu and 1.1 pu because the relay calculates the positive-sequence quantities
scaled to the phase-to-ground voltages, even if the VTs are connected in “Delta” (refer to the Metering conventions section
in chapter 6), while at the same time the VT nominal voltage is 1 pu for the settings. Consequently the settings required in
this example differ from naturally expected by the factor of 3 .
The worst-case error for this application could be calculated by superimposing the following two sources of error:
• ±0.5% of the full scale for the analog output module, or  0.005   1 – 0   254.03 kV =  1.27 kV
• ±0.5% of reading
For example, under nominal conditions, the positive-sequence reads 230.94 kV and the worst-case error is
0.005 x 230.94 kV + 1.27 kV = 2.42 kV.

The L30 provides a test facility to verify the functionality of contact inputs and outputs, some communication channels and
the phasor measurement unit (where applicable), using simulated conditions. The test mode is indicated on the relay face-
plate by a Test Mode LED indicator.
The test mode may be in any of three states: disabled, isolated, or forcible.
In the “Disabled” mode, L30 operation is normal and all test features are disabled.
In the “Isolated” mode, the L30 is prevented from performing certain control actions, including tripping via contact outputs.
All relay contact outputs, including latching outputs, are disabled. Channel tests and phasor measurement unit tests remain
usable on applicable UR-series models.
In the “Forcible” mode, the operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING setting controls the relay inputs and outputs. If the
test mode is forcible, and the operand assigned to the TEST MODE FORCING setting is “Off”, the L30 inputs and outputs oper-
ate normally. If the test mode is forcible, and the operand assigned to the TEST MODE FORCING setting is “On”, the L30 con-
tact inputs and outputs are forced to the values specified in the following sections. Forcing may be controlled by manually
changing the operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING setting between on and off, or by selecting a user-programma-
ble pushbutton, contact input, or communication-based input operand. Channel tests and phasor measurement unit tests
remain usable on applicable UR-series models.
5
Communications based inputs and outputs remain fully operational in test mode. If a control action is programmed
using direct inputs and outputs or remote inputs and outputs, then the test procedure must take this into account.
NOTE
When in “Forcible” mode, the operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING setting dictates further response of the L30 to
testing conditions. To force contact inputs and outputs through relay settings, set TEST MODE FORCING to “On”. To force con-
tact inputs and outputs through a user-programmable condition, such as FlexLogic operand (pushbutton, digital input, com-
munication-based input, or a combination of these), set TEST MODE FORCING to the desired operand. The contact input or
output is forced when the selected operand assumes a logic 1 state.
The L30 remains fully operational in test mode, allowing for various testing procedures. In particular, the protection and
control elements, FlexLogic, and communication-based inputs and outputs function normally.
The only difference between the normal operation and the test mode is the behavior of the input and output contacts. The
contact inputs can be forced to report as open or closed or remain fully operational, whereas the contact outputs can be
forced to open, close, freeze, or remain fully operational. The response of the digital input and output contacts to the test
mode is programmed individually for each input and output using the force contact inputs and force contact outputs test
functions described in the following sections.
The test mode state is indicated on the relay faceplate by a combination of the Test Mode LED indicator, the In-Service LED
indicator, and by the critical fail relay, as shown in the following table.

setting and the force contact input and force contact output settings all revert to their default states.

The relay digital inputs (contact inputs) could be pre-programmed to respond to the test mode in the following ways:
• If set to “Disabled”, the input remains fully operational. It is controlled by the voltage across its input terminals and can
be turned on and off by external circuitry. This value should be selected if a given input must be operational during the
test. This includes, for example, an input initiating the test, or being a part of a user pre-programmed test sequence.
• If set to “Open”, the input is forced to report as opened (Logic 0) for the entire duration of the test mode regardless of
the voltage across the input terminals.
• If set to “Closed”, the input is forced to report as closed (Logic 1) for the entire duration of the test mode regardless of
the voltage across the input terminals.
The force contact inputs feature provides a method of performing checks on the function of all contact inputs. Once
enabled, the relay is placed into test mode, allowing this feature to override the normal function of contact inputs. The Test
Mode LED will be on, indicating that the relay is in test mode. The state of each contact input may be programmed as “Dis-
abled”, “Open”, or “Closed”. All contact input operations return to normal when all settings for this feature are disabled.

The relay contact outputs can be pre-programmed to respond to the test mode.
If set to “Disabled”, the contact output remains fully operational. If operates when its control operand is logic 1 and will
resets when its control operand is logic 0. If set to “Energized”, the output will close and remain closed for the entire dura-
tion of the test mode, regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact. If set to “De-ener-
gized”, the output will open and remain opened for the entire duration of the test mode regardless of the status of the
operand configured to control the output contact. If set to “Freeze”, the output retains its position from before entering the
test mode, regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact.
These settings are applied two ways. First, external circuits may be tested by energizing or de-energizing contacts. Sec-
ond, by controlling the output contact state, relay logic may be tested and undesirable effects on external circuits avoided.
Example 1: Initiating test mode through user-programmable pushbutton 1
For example, the test mode can be initiated from user-programmable pushbutton 1. The pushbutton will be programmed as
“Latched” (pushbutton pressed to initiate the test, and pressed again to terminate the test). During the test, digital input 1
5
should remain operational, digital inputs 2 and 3 should open, and digital input 4 should close. Also, contact output 1 should
freeze, contact output 2 should open, contact output 3 should close, and contact output 4 should remain fully operational.
The required settings are shown below.
To enable user-programmable pushbutton 1 to initiate the test mode, make the following changes in the SETTINGS 
TESTING  TEST MODE menu: TEST MODE FUNCTION: “Enabled” and TEST MODE INITIATE: “PUSHBUTTON 1 ON”
Make the following changes to configure the contact inputs and outputs. In the SETTINGS  TESTING  FORCE CONTACT
INPUTS and FORCE CONTACT OUTPUTS menus, set:
FORCE Cont Ip 1: “Disabled”, FORCE Cont Ip 2: “Open”, FORCE Cont Ip 3: “Open”, and FORCE Cont Ip 4: “Closed”
FORCE Cont Op 1: “Freeze”, FORCE Cont Op 2: “De-energized”, FORCE Cont Op 3: “Energized”,
and FORCE Cont Op 4: “Disabled”
Example 2: Initiating a test from user-programmable pushbutton 1 or through remote input 1
In this example, the test can be initiated locally from user-programmable pushbutton 1 or remotely through remote input 1.
Both the pushbutton and the remote input will be programmed as “Latched”. Write the following FlexLogic equation:
Set the user-programmable pushbutton as latching by changing SETTINGS  PRODUCT SETUP  USER-PROGRAMMABLE
PUSHBUTTONS  USER PUSHBUTTON 1  PUSHBUTTON 1 FUNCTION to “Latched”. To enable either pushbutton 1 or remote
input 1 to initiate the Test mode, make the following changes in the SETTINGS  TESTING  TEST MODE menu:

The relay must be in test mode to use the PMU test mode. That is, the TESTING  TEST MODE FUNCTION setting must be
“Enabled” and the TESTING  TEST MODE INITIATE initiating signal must be “On”.
During the PMU test mode, the physical channels (VA, VB, VC, VX, IA, IB, IC, and IG), frequency, and rate of change of fre-
quency are substituted with user values, while the symmetrical components are calculated from the physical channels. The
test values are not explicitly marked in the outgoing data frames. When required, it is recommended to use the user-pro- 5
grammable digital channels to signal the C37.118 client that test values are being sent in place of the real measurements.
The UR Synchrophasor Implementation defines a test mode which sends a pre-defined set of Synchrophasors out over the
communication channel when the test mode function setting is enabled. In test mode, the following actions take place:
a. The Data Invalid / Test Mode bit (bit 15 in the STAT word) is set.
b. The Sim bit in all output datasets is set.

ferential element is enabled and data is being received from the remote terminal; If the value is “FAIL”, the 87L element
is enabled and data is not being received from the remote terminal. If “n/a”, the 87L element is disabled.
• CHANNEL 1(2) LOST PACKETS: Current, timing, and control data is transmitted to the remote terminals in data pack-
ets at a rate of two packets per cycle. The number of lost packets represents data packets lost in transmission; this
count can be reset through the COMMANDS  CLEAR RECORDS menu.
• CHANNEL 1(2) LOCAL LOOPBACK STATUS: The result of the local loopback test is displayed here.
• CHANNEL 1(2) REMOTE LOOPBACK STATUS: The result of the remote loopback test is displayed here.
• CHANNEL 1(2) LOOP DELAY: Displays the round trip channel delay (including loopback processing time of the
remote relay) computed during a remote loopback test under normal relay operation, in milliseconds (ms).
• CHANNEL 1(2) ASYMMETRY: The result of channel asymmetry calculations derived from GPS signal is being dis-
played here for both channels if CHANNEL ASYMMETRY is “Enabled”. A positive “+” sign indicates the transit delay in the
transmitting direction is less than the delay in the receiving direction; a negative “–” sign indicates the transit delay in
the transmitting direction is more than the delay in the receiving direction. A displayed value of “0.0” indicates that
either asymmetry is not present or can not be estimated due to failure with local/remote GPS clock source.
• VALIDITY OF CHANNEL CONFIGURATION: The current state of the communications channel identification check,
and hence validity, is displayed here. If a remote relay ID number does not match the programmed number at the local
relay, the “FAIL” value is displayed. The “n/a” value appears if the local relay ID is set to a default value of “0” or if the
87L element is disabled. Refer to SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  L90 POWER SYSTEM section for more information
• PFLL STATUS: This value represents the status of the phase and frequency locked loop (PFLL) filter which uses tim-
ing information from local and remote terminals to synchronize the clocks of all terminals. If PFLL STATUS is “OK”, the
clocks of all terminals are synchronized and 87L protection is enabled. If it is “FAIL”, the clocks of all terminals are not
synchronized and 87L protection is disabled. If “n/a”, then PFLL is disabled.
At startup, the clocks of all terminals are not synchronized and the PFLL status displayed is “FAIL”. It takes
up to 8 seconds after startup for the value displayed to change from “FAIL” to “OK”.

The RTC Sync Source actual value is the time synchronizing source the relay is using at present. Possible sources are:
Port 1 PTP Clock, Port 2 PTP Clock, Port 3 PTP Clock, IRIG-B, SNTP, and None.
The Grandmaster ID is the grandmasterIdentity code being received from the present PTP grandmaster, if any. When the
relay is not using any PTP grandmaster, this actual value is zero. The grandmasterIdentity code is specified by PTP to be
globally unique, so one can always know which clock is grandmaster in a system with multiple grandmaster-capable clocks.
Accuracy is the estimated maximum time error at present in the RTC, considering the quality information imbedded in the
received time signal. The value 999,999,999 indicates that the magnitude of the estimated error is one second or more, or
that the error cannot be estimated.
PORT 1…3 PTP STATE is the present state of the port’s PTP clock. The PTP clock state is: 6
• DISABLED is the port’s function setting is Disabled,
• NO SIGNAL if enabled but no signal from an active master has been found and selected,
• CALIBRATING if an active master has been selected but lock is not at present established,
• SYNCH’D (NO PDELAY) if the port is synchronized, but the peer delay mechanism is non-operational, and
• SYNCHRONIZED if synchronized.
PTP-— IRIG-B DELTA is the time difference, measured in nanoseconds, between the fractional seconds portion of the time
being received via PTP and that being received via IRIG-B. A positive value indicates that PTP time is fast compared to
IRIG-B time.

These values specify the remaining number of TCP connections still available for each protocol. Every time a connection is
used, the remaining number of connections decrements. When released, the remaining number of connections increments.
If no connection is made over the specific protocol, the number equals the maximum number available for the specific pro-
tocol.
For example, the maximum number of Modbus TCP connections is 4. Once an EnerVista session is opened on a computer
connected to the UR over Ethernet, the Modbus TCP status shows 3. If the EnerVista application is closed, the Modbus
TCP status shows 4.
Note that the maximum number of PMU TCP connections matches the number of aggregators.

b) UR CONVENTION FOR MEASURING PHASE ANGLES

All phasors calculated by UR-series relays and used for protection, control and metering functions are rotating phasors that
maintain the correct phase angle relationships with each other at all times.
For display and oscillography purposes, all phasor angles in a given relay are referred to an AC input channel pre-selected
by the SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  POWER SYSTEM  FREQUENCY AND PHASE REFERENCE setting. This setting
defines a particular AC signal source to be used as the reference.
The relay will first determine if any “Phase VT” bank is indicated in the source. If it is, voltage channel VA of that bank is
used as the angle reference. Otherwise, the relay determines if any “Aux VT” bank is indicated; if it is, the auxiliary voltage
channel of that bank is used as the angle reference. If neither of the two conditions is satisfied, then two more steps of this
hierarchical procedure to determine the reference signal include “Phase CT” bank and “Ground CT” bank.
If the AC signal pre-selected by the relay upon configuration is not measurable, the phase angles are not referenced. The
phase angles are assigned as positive in the leading direction, and are presented as negative in the lagging direction, to
more closely align with power system metering conventions. This is illustrated below.

c) UR CONVENTION FOR MEASURING SYMMETRICAL COMPONENTS

The UR-series of relays calculate voltage symmetrical components for the power system phase A line-to-neutral voltage,
and symmetrical components of the currents for the power system phase A current. Owing to the above definition, phase
angle relations between the symmetrical currents and voltages stay the same irrespective of the connection of instrument
transformers. This is important for setting directional protection elements that use symmetrical voltages.
For display and oscillography purposes the phase angles of symmetrical components are referenced to a common refer-
ence as described in the previous sub-section.

Clarke transformation of three-phase voltages or currents, auxiliary voltage, or ground current as per source configuration
(see the SYSTEM SETUP  POWER SYSTEM settings). The signal used for frequency estimation is low-pass filtered. The
final frequency measurement is passed through a validation filter that eliminates false readings due to signal distortions and
transients.

This menu contains commands for relay maintenance purposes. Commands for the lamp test and order code are activated
by changing a command setting to “Yes” and pressing the ENTER key. The command setting will then automatically revert
to “No”. The service command is activated by entering a numerical code and pressing the ENTER key.
The PERFORM LAMPTEST command turns on all faceplate LEDs and display pixels for a short duration. The UPDATE
ORDER CODE command causes the relay to scan the backplane for the hardware modules and update the order code to
match. If an update occurs, the following message is shown.
UPDATING...
PLEASE WAIT
There is no impact if there have been no changes to the hardware modules. When an update does not occur, the ORDER
CODE NOT UPDATED message will be shown.
The SERVICE COMMAND is used to perform specific L30 service actions. Presently, there is only one service action available.
Code “101” is used to clear factory diagnostic information stored in the non-volatile memory. If a code other than “101” is
entered, the command will be ignored and no actions will be taken. Various self-checking diagnostics are performed in the
background while the L30 is running, and diagnostic information is stored on the non-volatile memory from time to time
based on the self-checking result. Although the diagnostic information is cleared before the L30 is shipped from the factory,
the user may want to clear the diagnostic information for themselves under certain circumstances. For example, it may be
desirable to clear diagnostic information after replacement of hardware. Once the diagnostic information is cleared, all self-
checking variables are reset to their initial state and diagnostics will restart from scratch.
The REBOOT RELAY COMMAND reboots the relay so that changes to configuration settings can take effect. In most cases, if
changes are made to the configuration settings these changes do not take effect unless the relay is rebooted.
With the CyberSentry option, the Administrator or Operator role can initiate the Reboot Relay command. 7

This feature allows pre-scheduling a PMU measurement at a specific point in time. This functionality can be used to test for
accuracy of the PMU, and for manual collection of synchronized measurements through the system, as explained below.
When enabled, the function continuously compares the present time with the pre-set PMU ONE-SHOT TIME. When the two
times match, the function compares the present sequence number of the measured synchrophasors with the pre-set PMU
ONE-SHOT SEQUENCE NUMBER. When the two numbers match, the function freezes the synchrophasor actual values and
the corresponding protocol data items for 30 seconds. This allows manual read-out of the synchrophasor values for the

7.1 COMMANDS 7 COMMANDS AND TARGETS
pre-set time and pre-set sequence number (via the faceplate display, supported communication protocols such as Modbus
or DNP, and the EnerVista UR Setup software).
When freezing the actual values the function also asserts a PMU ONE-SHOT OP FlexLogic operand. This operand may be
configured to drive an output contact and trigger an external measuring device such as a digital scope with the intent to ver-
ify the accuracy of the PMU under test.
With reference to the figure below, the PMU one-shot function (when enabled) controls three FlexLogic operands:
• The PMU ONE-SHOT EXPIRED operand indicates that the one-shot operation has been executed, and the present time
is at least 30 seconds past the scheduled one-shot time.
• The PMU ONE-SHOT PENDING operand indicates that the one-shot operation is pending; that is, the present time is
before the scheduled one-shot time.
• The PMU ONE-SHOT OP operand indicates the one-shot operation and remains asserted for 30 seconds afterwards.
When the function is disabled, all three operands are de-asserted. The one-shot function applies to all logical PMUs of a
given L30 relay.
Figure 7–1: PMU ONE-SHOT FLEXLOGIC OPERANDS

TESTING ACCURACY OF THE PMU:
The one-shot feature can be used to test accuracy of the synchrophasor measurement. GPS-synchronized tests sets per-
form a similar function to PMUs: instead of measuring the phasor from physical signals with respect to the externally pro-
vided time reference, they produce the physical signals with respect to the externally provided time reference, given the
desired phasor values. Therefore the GPS-synchronized test sets cannot be automatically assumed more accurate than
the PMUs under test. This calls for a method to verify both the measuring device (PMU) and the source of signal (test set).
With reference to the figure below, the one-shot feature could be configured to trigger a high-accuracy scope to capture
7 both the time reference signal (rising edge of the 1 pps signal of the IRIG-B time reference), and the measured waveform.
The high-accuracy high-sampling rate record of the two signals captured by the scope can be processed using digital tools
to verify the magnitude and phase angle with respect to the time reference signal. As both the time reference and the mea-
sured signals are raw inputs to the PMU under test, their independently captured record, processed using third-party soft-
ware, is a good reference point for accuracy calculations. Such a record proves useful when discussing the test results, and
should be retained as a part of the testing documentation.
Note that the PMU under such test does not have to be connected to a real GPS receiver as the accuracy is measured with
respect to the timing reference provided to the PMU and not to the absolute UTC time. Therefore a simple IRIG-B genera-
tor could be used instead. Also, the test set does not have to support GPS synchronization. Any stable signal source can

be used. If both the PMU under test and the test set use the timing reference, they should be driven from the same IRIG-B
signal: either the same GPS receiver or IRIG-B generator. Otherwise, the setpoints of the test set and the PMU measure-
ments should not be compared as they are referenced to different time scales.

COLLECTING SYNCHRONIZED MEASUREMENTS AD HOC:
The one-shot feature can be used for ad hoc collection of synchronized measurements in the network. Two or more PMU
can be pre-scheduled to freeze their measurements at the same time. When frozen the measurements could be collected
using EnerVista UR Setup or a protocol client.

minor) are listed in the tables below. When either type of self-test error occurs, the Trouble LED Indicator will turn on and a
target message displayed. All errors record an event in the event recorder. Latched errors can be cleared by pressing the
RESET key, providing the condition is no longer present.
Major self-test errors also result in the following:
• The critical fail relay on the power supply module is de-energized.
• All other output relays are de-energized and are prevented from further operation.
• The faceplate In Service LED indicator is turned off.
• A RELAY OUT OF SERVICE event is recorded.

d) WRONG TRANSCEIVER MESSAGES

Description: The type of SFP does not match the CPU type.
T-type CPU = All ports support fiber SFPs only
Type: minor
Target: latched
Message: "WRONG TRANSCEIVER"
A webpage "SFP Transceiver Information" is provided. This page displays the type of the SFP in it. This data is to be used
with the CPU type to know the cause of the problem.
e) SFP X MODULE FAIL MESSAGES

Description: A faulty SFP or unplugging the SFP would generate this self test.
Type: minor
Target: self reset
Message: SFP MODULE x FAIL
The webpage "SFP Transceiver Information" described in the previous section applies for this self test as well. The "SFP
Module Fail" has higher priority and it suppresses the "Ethernet Fail" target message. The "SFP MODULE FAIL FUNC-
TION" setting enables/disables this self test. The target for this self test is priority-based, with the third one being the high-
est priority. For example, if all three SFP modules fail, then the third SFP target is activated. If the third SFP module failure
resolves, then the second SFP target is activated.
HARDFIBER SELF-TEST ERROR MESSAGES
In addition to those provided by the standard UR-series devices, the UR devices implement HardFiber self-tests. These are
listed below. Any abnormal diagnostic condition indicated by the LEDs or the critical failure relay also results in a self-test 7
message, so troubleshooting is described here. For other relays, such at the B95Plus, see that product’s instruction manual.
Equipment Mismatch Major Self-Test
Description: The number or type of installed hardware modules does not match the order code stored in the CPU. The stan-
dard UR-series Equipment Mismatch self-test is extended to cover the possible presence of a Process Card.
Severity: Protection is not available and all contact outputs and shared outputs are de-asserted.
If this message appears, check all modules against the order code. Ensure they are inserted properly, and cycle the control
power. If a module has intentionally been added or removed use the Update Order Code command to notify the relay that
the current module configuration is correct.
Module Failure Major Self-Test
Description: UR-series device module hardware failure detected.
If this message appears, contact the factory and supply the failure code noted in the display. Text in the message identifies
the failed module (for example, H81). If operated on a Process Card failure, the Module Fail self-test seals-in (latches) till
the UR-series device is restarted.

Process Bus Failure Major Self-test

Description: Mission critical data is not available via the process bus. An AC quantity is considered critical if both AC bank
origins and the crosschecking settings are other than none. This self-test is also initiated by an AC input discrepancy being
detected. See the description of the crosschecking setting in this manual for further information. In addition, this self-test
can be initiated by user logic responding to loss of critical contact input/output or other data using the Process Bus Failure
Operand user-programmable self-test setting. This setting is located in the Settings > Product Setup > User-Program-
mable Self Test menu.
If this message appears, first rectify any Process Bus Trouble and Brick Trouble self-test errors. Check the actual value of
the operand referenced by the Process Bus Failure Operand setting, and if “On”, determine the cause and rectify.
Should the problem persist with the foregoing all clear, the cause must be an AC input discrepancy, which is typically the
result of problems in the input signals to the Bricks, or faults in the Brick input conditioning hardware. If the error was
annunciated the first time significant signal was encountered, suspect the former cause and check the copper connections
external to the Brick. Where multiple UR-series devices have self-test errors, look for common causes.
To further isolate AC input discrepancy errors, put the relay in test-isolated mode, then one by one, temporally change an
AC bank crosschecking setting to none, until the Process Bus Failure clears. Once the problem AC bank has been identi-
fied, the values from each of the two Bricks can be examined individually by temporarily mapping each to an AC bank with
a single origin.
Process Bus Trouble Minor Self-Test
Description: Communications problems with one or more Bricks. The text of the message identifies the affected field units.
This self-test is initiated by low received signal levels at either the Brick or Process Card end, and by the sustained failure
to receive poll responses from the proper Brick.
Severity: This self-test error does not directly inhibit protection. However, the affected Brick inputs/outputs may not be avail-
able to the UR-series device.
If this message appears, check the field unit actual values. An indication of equipment mismatch means that messages are
being received from a Brick, but there is a discrepancy between the settings and the actual Brick serial number, order code,
and/or core number. Check that the correct core on the correct Brick is patched through to the correct Process Card port,
and that the field unit settings are correct. An indication of communications loss means that no messages are being
received. Check that the patching is correct, and that the Brick has power. If that is not the problem, use a professional opti-
cal fiber connector cleaning kit to clean both sides of all optical fiber connections from the Process Card through to the
affected Brick. If the problem continues after cleaning, consult the factory.
Brick Trouble Minor Self-Test
7 Description: Brick internal self-testing has detected a trouble internal to the Brick.
Severity: This self-test error does not directly inhibit protection. However, some or all of the affected Brick inputs/outputs
may not be available to the UR-series device.
If this message appears, check the Brick environment for over/under temperatures and the voltage of its power source. If
the ambient temperature and supply voltage are within Brick specifications, consult the factory. Troubles resulting from a
Brick output failing to respond to an output command can only be detected while the command is active, and so in this case
the target is latched. A latched target can be unlatched by pressing the faceplate reset key if the command has ended,
however the output may still be non-functional.

8 THEORY OF OPERATION 8.1 OVERVIEW
8 THEORY OF OPERATION 8.1OVERVIEW 8.1.1 L30 DESIGN
All differential techniques rely on the fact that under normal conditions, the sum of the currents entering each phase of a
transmission line from all connected terminals is equal to the charging current for that phase. Beyond the fundamental dif-
ferential principle, the three most important technical considerations are; data consolidation, restraint characteristic, and
sampling synchronization. The L30 uses new and unique concepts in these areas.
Data consolidation refers to the extraction of appropriate parameters to be transmitted from raw samples of transmission
line phase currents. By employing data consolidation, a balance is achieved between transient response and bandwidth
requirements. Consolidation is possible along two dimensions: time and phases. Time consolidation consists of combining
a time sequence of samples to reduce the required bandwidth. Phase consolidation consists of combining information from
three phases and neutral. Although phase consolidation is possible, it is generally not employed in digital schemes,
because it is desired to detect which phase is faulted. The L30 relay transmits data for all three phases.
Time consolidation reduces communications bandwidth requirements. Time consolidation also improves security by elimi-
nating the possibility of falsely interpreting a single corrupted data sample as a fault.
The L30 relay system uses a new consolidation technique called “phaselets”. Phaselets are partial sums of the terms
involved in a complete phasor computation. The use of phaselets in the L30 design improves the transient response perfor-
mance without increasing the bandwidth requirements.
Phaselets themselves are not the same as phasors, but they can be combined into phasors over any time window that is
aligned with an integral number of phaselets (see the Phaselet Computation section in this chapter for details). The number
of phaselets that must be transmitted per cycle per phase is the number of samples per cycle divided by the number of
samples per phaselet. The L30 design uses 64 samples per cycle and 32 samples per phaselet, leading to a phaselet com-
munication bandwidth requirement of 2 phaselets per cycle. Two phaselets per cycle fits comfortably within a communica-
tions bandwidth of 64 Kbaud, and can be used to detect faults within a half cycle plus channel delay.
The second major technical consideration is the restraint characteristic, which is the decision boundary between situations
that are declared to be a fault and those that are not. The L30 uses an innovative adaptive decision process based on an
on-line computation of the sources of measurement error. In this adaptive approach, the restraint region is an ellipse with
variable major axis, minor axis, and orientation. Parameters of the ellipse vary with time to make best use of the accuracy
of current measurements.
The third major element of L30 design is sampling synchronization. In order for a differential scheme to work, the data
being compared must be taken at the same time. This creates a challenge when data is taken at remote locations.
The GE approach to clock synchronization relies upon distributed synchronization. Distributed synchronization is accom-
plished by synchronizing the clocks to each other rather than to a master clock. Clocks are phase synchronized to each
other and frequency synchronized to the power system frequency. Each relay compares the phase of its clock to the phase
of the other clocks and compares the frequency of its clock to the power system frequency and makes appropriate adjust-
ments. As long as there are enough channels operating to provide protection, the clocks will be synchronized.
8.1.2 L30 ARCHITECTURE
The L30 system uses a peer to peer architecture in which the relays at every terminal are identical. Each relay computes
differential current and clocks are synchronized to each other in a distributed fashion. The peer to peer architecture is
based on two main concepts that reduce the dependence of the system on the communication channels: replication of pro-
tection and distributed synchronization.
8
Replication of protection means that each relay is designed to be able to provide protection for the entire system, and does
so whenever it has enough information. Thus a relay provides protection whenever it is able to communicate directly with
all other relays. For a multi-terminal system, the degree of replication is determined by the extent of communication inter-
connection. If there is a channel between every pair of relays, every relay provides protection. If channels are not provided
between every pair of relays, only those relays that are connected to all other relays provide protection.
Each L30 relay measures three phase currents 64 times per cycle. Synchronization in sampling is maintained throughout
the system via the distributed synchronization technique.
The next step is the removal of any decaying offset from each phase current measurement. This is done using a digital sim-
ulation of the so-called “mimic circuit” (based on the differential equation of the inductive circuit that generates the offset).
Next, phaselets are computed by each L30 for each phase from the outputs of the mimic calculation, and transmitted to the

8.1 OVERVIEW 8 THEORY OF OPERATION
other relay terminals. Also, the sum of the squares of the raw data samples is computed for each phase, and transmitted
with the phaselets.
At the receiving relay, the received phaselets are combined into phasors. Also, ground current is reconstructed from phase
information. An elliptical restraint region is computed by combining sources of measurement error. In addition to the
restraint region, a separate disturbance detector is used to enhance security.
The possibility of a fault is indicated by the detection of a disturbance as well as the sum of the current phasors falling out-
side of the elliptical restraint region. The statistical distance from the phasor to the restraint region is an indication of the
severity of the fault. To provide speed of response that is commensurate with fault severity, the distance is filtered. For mild
faults, filtering improves measurement precision at the expense of a slight delay, on the order of one cycle. Severe faults
are detected within a single phaselet. Whenever the sum of phasors falls within the elliptical restraint region, the system
assumes there is no fault, and uses whatever information is available for fine adjustment of the clocks.
8.1.3 REMOVAL OF DECAYING OFFSET
The inductive behavior of power system transmission lines gives rise to decaying exponential offsets during transient con-
ditions, which could lead to errors and interfere with the determination of how well measured current fits a sinewave.
The current signals are pre-filtered using an improved digital MIMIC filter. The filter removes effectively the DC compo-
nent(s) guaranteeing transient overshoot below 2% regardless of the initial magnitude and time constant of the dc compo-
nent(s). The filter has significantly better filtering properties for higher frequencies as compared with a classical MIMIC filter.
This was possible without introducing any significant phase delay thanks to the high sampling rate used by the relay. The
output of the MIMIC calculation is the input for the phaselet computation. The MIMIC computation is applied to the data
samples for each phase at each terminal. The equation shown is for one phase at one terminal.
8.1.4 PHASELET COMPUTATION
Phaselets are partial sums in the computation for fitting a sine function to measured samples. Each slave computes phase-
lets for each phase current and transmits phaselet information to the master for conversion into phasors. Phaselets enable
the efficient computation of phasors over sample windows that are not restricted to an integer multiple of a half cycle at the
power system frequency. Determining the fundamental power system frequency component of current data samples by
minimizing the sum of the squares of the errors gives rise to the first frequency component of the Discrete Fourier Trans-
form (DFT). In the case of a data window that is a multiple of a half cycle, the computation is simply sine and cosine
weighted sums of the data samples. In the case of a window that is not a multiple of a half-cycle, there is an additional cor-
rection that results from the sine and cosine functions not being orthogonal over such a window. However, the computation
can be expressed as a two by two matrix multiplication of the sine and cosine weighted sums.
Phaselets and sum of squares are computed for each phase at each terminal as follows. For the real part, we have:

For the imaginary part, we have:

 N 
(EQ 8.2)
p=0
where: k is the present phaselet index,

N is the number of samples per cycle, and
p is the present sample index
The computation of phaselets and sum of squares is basically a consolidation process. The phaselet sums are converted
into stationary phasors by multiplying by a precomputed matrix. Phaselets and partial sums of squares are computed and
time stamped at each relay and communicated to the remote relay terminals, where they are added and the matrix multipli-
cation is performed. Since the sampling clocks are synchronized, the time stamp is simply a sequence number.

8.1.5 DISTURBANCE DETECTION
A disturbance detection algorithm is used to enhance security and to improve transient response. Conditions to detect a
disturbance include the magnitude of zero-sequence current, the magnitude of negative-sequence current, and changes in
positive, negative, or zero-sequence current. Normally, differential protection is performed using a full-cycle Fourier trans-
form. Continuous use of a full-cycle Fourier means that some pre-fault data is also used for computation – this may lead to
a slowdown in the operation of the differential function. To improve operating time, the window is resized to the half-cycle
Fourier once a disturbance is detected, thus removing pre-fault data.
8.1.6 FAULT DETECTION
Normally, the sum of the current phasors from all terminals is zero for each phase at every terminal. A fault is detected for a
phase when the sum of the current phasors from each terminal for that phase falls outside of a dynamic elliptical restraint
boundary for that phase. The severity of the fault is computed as follows for each phase.
The differential current is calculated as a sum of local and remote currents. The real part is expressed as:
I DIFF_RE_A = I LOC_PHASOR_RE_A + I REM1_PHASOR_RE_A + I REM2_PHASOR_RE_A (EQ 8.3)
The imaginary part is expressed as:

I DIFF_IM_A = I LOC_PHASOR_IM_A + I REM1_PHASOR_IM_A + I REM2_PHASOR_IM_A (EQ 8.4)
The differential current is squared for the severity equation:

2 2 2
 I DIFF_A  =  I DIFF_RE_A  +  I DIFF_IM_A  (EQ 8.5)
The restraint current is composed from two distinctive terms: traditional and adaptive. Each relay calculates local portion of
the traditional and restraint current to be used locally and sent to remote peers for use with differential calculations. If more
than one CT are connected to the relay (breaker-and-the half applications), then a maximum of all (up to 4) currents is cho-
sen to be processed for traditional restraint:
The current chosen is expressed as:
2 2 2 2 2 2
 I LOC_TRAD_A  = max   I 1_MAG_A    I 2_MAG_A    I 3_MAG_A    I 4_MAG_A    I q_MAG_A   (EQ 8.6)
This current is then processed with the slope (S1 and S2) and breakpoint (BP) settings to form a traditional part of the
restraint term for the local current as follows. For two-terminal systems, we have:
2 2
If  I LOC_TRAD_A   BP
2 2
then  I LOC_REST_TRAD_A  = 2  S 1  I LOC_TRAD_A  (EQ 8.7)
2 2 2 2
else  I LOC_REST_TRAD_A  = 2   S 2  I LOC_TRAD_A  –  S 2  BP   + 2  S 1  BP 
For three-terminal systems we have

2 2
If  I LOC_TRAD_A   BP

then  I LOC_REST_TRAD_A  = ---  S 1  I LOC_TRAD_A  (EQ 8.8)

else  I LOC_REST_TRAD_A  = ---   S 2  I LOC_TRAD_A  –  S 2  BP   + ---  S 1  BP 
3 3
The final restraint current sent to peers and used locally in differential calculations is as follows:
2 2
I LOC_RESTRAINT_A =  I LOC_REST_TRAD_A  + MULT A   I LOC_ADA_A  (EQ 8.9)
where: MULTA is a multiplier that increases restraint if CT saturation is detected (see CT Saturation Detection for details);
ILOC_ADA_A is an adaptive restraint term (see Online Estimate Of Measurement Error for details)
The squared restraining current is calculated as a sum of squared local and all remote restraints:

2 2 2 2
 I REST_A  =  I LOC_PHASOR_RESTRAINT_A  +  I REM1_PHASOR_RESTRAINT_A  +  I REM2_PHASOR_RESTRAINT_A  (EQ 8.10)
The fault severity for each phase is determined by following equation:

2 2 2
S A =  I DIFF_A  –  2P +  I REST_A   (EQ 8.11)
where P is the pickup setting.

This equation is based on the adaptive strategy and yields an elliptical restraint characteristic. The elliptical area is the
restraint region. When the adaptive portion of the restraint current is small, the restraint region shrinks. When the adaptive
portion of the restraint current increases, the restraint region grows to reflect the uncertainty of the measurement. The com-
puted severity increases with the probability that the sum of the measured currents indicates a fault. With the exception of
“Restraint”, all quantities are defined in previous sections. “Adaptive Restraint” is a restraint multiplier, analogous to the
slope setting of traditional differential approaches, for adjusting the sensitivity of the relay.
Raising the restraint multiplier corresponds to demanding a greater confidence interval, and has the effect of decreasing
sensitivity while lowering it is equivalent to relaxing the confidence interval and increases sensitivity. Thus, the restraint
multiplier is an application adjustment that is used to achieve the desired balance between sensitivity and security. The
computed severity is zero when the operate phasor is on the elliptical boundary, is negative inside the boundary, and posi-
tive outside the boundary. Outside of the restraint boundary, the computed severity grows as the square of the fault current.
The restraint area grows as the square of the error in the measurements.
8.1.7 GROUND DIFFERENTIAL ELEMENT
The line ground differential function allows sensitive ground protection for single-line to-ground faults, allowing the phase
differential element to be set higher (above load) to provide protection for multi-phase faults. The L30 ground differential
function calculates ground differential current from all terminal phase currents. The maximum phase current is used for the
restraint. The L30 is applied in dual-breaker applications to cope with significant through current at remote terminals that
may cause CT errors or saturation.
The line ground differential function uses the same CT matched and time-aligned phasors as the phase-segregated current
differential function. The operate signal is calculated for both real and imaginary parts as follows:
I OP_87G_RE = I LOC_PHASOR_RE_A + I LOC_PHASOR_RE_B + I LOC_PHASOR_RE_C + I REM1_PHASOR_RE_A + I REM1_PHASOR_RE_B
(EQ 8.12)
+ I REM1_PHASOR_RE_C + I REM2_PHASOR_RE_A + I REM2_PHASOR_RE_B + I REM2_PHASOR_RE_C
I OP_87G_IM = I LOC_PHASOR_IM_A + I LOC_PHASOR_IM_B + I LOC_PHASOR_IM_C + I REM1_PHASOR_IM_A + I REM1_PHASOR_IM_B

(EQ 8.13)
+ I REM1_PHASOR_IM_C + I REM2_PHASOR_IM_A + I REM2_PHASOR_IM_B + I REM2_PHASOR_IM_C
The terms for the second remote terminal are omitted in two-terminal applications.
The maximum through current is available locally and re-constructed from the received remote restraint based on the max-
imum remote restraint current shown in the previous section and as indicated below.
For two-terminal applications:

The 87G restraining signal is calculated as follows:

2 2 2 2 2 2
 I RES_87G  = max   I LOC_REST_A    I LOC_REST_B    I LOC_REST_C    I REM1_REST_A    I REM1_REST_B  

The terms for the second remote terminal are omitted in two-terminal applications.
2
The operate signal for the ground differential function,  I OP_87G  , is then calculated as:
2 2 2
 I OP_87G  =  I OP_87G_RE  +  I OP_87G_IM  (EQ 8.17)
2
The restraint signal,  I 87G  , is calculated as follows for two-terminal applications:
2 2 2
 I 87G  = 2S 87G   I RES_87G  (EQ 8.18)
2
The restraint signal,  I 87G  , is calculated as follows for three-terminal applications:
2 4 2 2
 I 87G  = ---  S 87G   I RES_87G  (EQ 8.19)
3
where S 87G is the slope setting for the ground differential function.
The ground differential element picks up if the following condition holds.
2 2 2 2 2
  I OP_87G  –  2P 87G +  I 87G    0  and   I RES_87G    3 pu   (EQ 8.20)
where P 87G is the pickup setting for the ground differential function.
In other words, when the squared magnitude of the operating signal is greater than the total restraining squared signal, the
element operates. For additional security, the function is blocked if the restraining signal is high, indicating the 87LG func-
tion is not required to clear high-current faults, allowing for more sensitive settings to be used for the 87LG function.
8.1.8 CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION
Synchronization of data sampling clocks is needed in a digital differential protection scheme, because measurements must
be made at the same time. Synchronization errors show up as phase angle and transient errors in phasor measurements at
the terminals. By phase angle errors, we mean that identical currents produce phasors with different phase angles. By tran-
sient errors, we mean that when currents change at the same time, the effect is seen at different times at different measure-
ment points. For best results, samples should be taken simultaneously at all terminals. 8
In the case of peer to peer architecture, synchronization is accomplished by synchronizing the clocks to each other rather
than to a master clock. Each relay compares the phase of its clock to the phase of the other clocks and compares the fre-
quency of its clock to the power system frequency and makes appropriate adjustments. The frequency and phase tracking
algorithm keeps the measurements at all relays within a plus or minus 25 microsecond error during normal conditions for a
2 or 3 terminal system. For 4 or more terminals the error may be somewhat higher, depending on the quality of the commu-
nications channels. The algorithm is unconditionally stable. In the case of 2 and 3 terminal systems, asymmetric communi-
cations channel delay is automatically compensated for. In all cases, an estimate of phase error is computed and used to
automatically adapt the restraint region to compensate. Frequency tracking is provided that will accommodate any fre-
quency shift normally encountered in power systems.

8.1.9 FREQUENCY TRACKING AND PHASE LOCKING
Each relay has a digital clock that determines when to take data samples and which is phase synchronized to all other
clocks in the system and frequency synchronized to the power system frequency. Phase synchronization drives the relative
timing error between clocks to zero, and is needed to control the uncertainty in the phase angle of phasor measurements,
which will be held to under 26 microseconds (0.6 degrees). Frequency synchronization to the power system eliminates a
source of error in phasor measurements that arises when data samples do not exactly span one cycle.
The block diagram for clock control for a two terminal system is shown in the following figure. Each relay makes a local esti-
mate of the difference between the power system frequency and the clock frequency based on the rotation of phasors.
Each relay also makes a local estimate of the time difference between its clock and the other clocks either by exchanging
timing information over communications channels or from information that is in the current phasors, depending on which-
ever one is more accurate at any given time. A loop filter then uses the frequency and phase angle deviation information to
make fine adjustments to the clock frequency. Frequency tracking starts if the current at one or more terminals is above
0.125 pu of nominal; otherwise, the nominal frequency is used.

Figure 8–1: BLOCK DIAGRAM FOR CLOCK SYNCHRONIZATION IN A TWO-TERMINAL SYSTEM

The L30 provides sensitive digital current differential protection by computing differential current from current phasors. To
improve sensitivity, the clocks are controlling current sampling are closely synchronized via the ping-pong algorithm. How-
ever, this algorithm assumes the communication channel delay is identical in each direction. If the delays are not the same,
8 the error between current phasors is equal to half of the transmit-receive time difference. If the error is high enough, the
relay perceives the “apparent” differential current and misoperates.
For applications where the communication channel is not symmetric (for example, SONET ring), the L30 allows the use of
GPS (Global Positioning System) to compensate for the channel delay asymmetry. This feature requires a GPS receiver to
provide a GPS clock signal to the L30. With this option there are two clocks as each terminal: a local sampling clock and a
local GPS clock. The sampling clock controls data sampling while the GPS clock provides an accurate, absolute time refer-
ence used to measure channel asymmetry. The local sampling clocks are synchronized to each other in phase and to the
power system in frequency. The local GPS clocks are synchronized to GPS time using the externally provided GPS time
signal.
GPS time stamp is included in the transmitted packet along with the sampling clock time stamp. Both sampling clock devia-
tion and channel asymmetry are computed from the four time-stamps. One half of the channel asymmetry is then sub-
tracted from the computed sampling clock deviation. The compensated deviation drives the phase and frequency lock loop

(PFLL) as shown on the diagram above. If GPS time reference is lost, the channel asymmetry compensation is not
enabled, and the relay clock may start to drift and accumulate differential error. In this case, the 87L function has to be
blocked. Refer to Chapter 10: Application of Settings for samples of how to program the relay.
8.1.10 FREQUENCY DETECTION
Estimation of frequency deviation is done locally at each relay based on rotation of positive sequence current, or on rotation
of positive sequence voltage, if it is available. The counter clockwise rotation rate is proportional to the difference between
the desired clock frequency and the actual clock frequency. With the peer to peer architecture, there is redundant frequency
tracking, so it is not necessary that all terminals perform frequency detection.
Normally each relay will detect frequency deviation, but if there is no current flowing nor voltage measurement available at
a particular relay, it will not be able to detect frequency deviation. In that case, the frequency deviation input to the loop filter
is set to zero and frequency tracking is still achieved because of phase locking to the other clocks. If frequency detection is
lost at all terminals because there is no current flowing then the clocks continue to operate at the frequency present at the
time of the loss of frequency detection. Tracking will resume as soon as there is current.
The rotational rate of phasors is equal to the difference between the power system frequency and the ratio of the sampling
frequency divided by the number of samples per cycle. The correction is computed once per power system cycle at each
relay. For conciseness, we use a phasor notation:
I  n  = Re  Phasor n  + j  Im  Phasor n 
I a k  n  = I  n  for phase a from the kth terminal at time step n
(EQ 8.21)
I b k  n  = I  n  for phase b from the kth terminal at time step n
I c k  n  = I  n  for phase c from the kth terminal at time step n
Each terminal computes positive sequence current:

1 j2  3 j2  3
I pos k  n  = ---  I a k  n  + I b k  n   e + I c k  n   e  (EQ 8.22)
3
Each relay computes a quantity derived from the positive sequence current that is indicative of the amount of rotation from
one cycle to the next, by computing the product of the positive sequence current times the complex conjugate of the posi-
tive sequence current from the previous cycle:
Deviation k  n  = I pos k  n   I pos k  n – N  (EQ 8.23)
The angle of the deviation phasor for each relay is proportional to the frequency deviation at that terminal. Since the clock
synchronization method maintains frequency synchronism, the frequency deviation is approximately the same for each
relay. The clock deviation frequency is computed from the deviation phasor:
–1
FrequencyDeviation =   Im  Deviation   Re  Deviation  -
-----f = tan
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ (EQ 8.24)
f 2
Note that a four quadrant arctangent can be computed by taking the imaginary and the real part of the deviation separately
for the two arguments of the four quadrant arctangent. Also note that the input to the loop filter is in radian frequency which
is two pi times the frequency in cycles per second; that is,  = 2  f .
8
So the radian frequency deviation can be calculated simply as:
–1
 = f  tan  Im  Deviation   Re  Deviation   (EQ 8.25)
8.1.11 PHASE DETECTION
There are two separate sources of clock phase information; exchange of time stamps over the communications channels
and the current measurements themselves (although voltage measurements can be used to provide frequency information,
they cannot be used for phase detection). Current measurements can generally provide the most accurate information, but
are not always available and may contain large errors during faults or switching transients. Time stamped messages are

the most reliable source of phase information but suffer from a phase offset due to a difference in the channel delays in
each direction between a pair of relays. In some cases, one or both directions may be switched to a different physical path,
leading to gross phase error.
The primary source of phase information are CPU time-tagged messages. If GPS compensation is enabled, GPS time
stamps are used to compensate for asymmetry. In all cases, frequency deviation information is also used when available.
The phase difference between a pair of clocks is computed by an exchange of time stamps. Each relay exchanges time
stamps with all other relays that can be reached.
It is not necessary to exchange stamps with every relay, and the method works even with some of the channels failed. For
each relay that a given relay can exchange time stamps with, the clock deviation is computed each time a complete set of
time stamps arrives. The net deviation is the total deviation divided by the total number of relays involved in the exchange.
For example, in the case of two terminals, each relay computes a single time deviation from time stamps, and divides the
result by two. In the case of three terminals, each relay computes two time deviations and divides the result by three. If a
channel is lost, the single deviation that remains is divided by two.
Four time stamps are needed to compute round trip delay time and phase deviation. Three stamps are included in the mes-
sage in each direction. The fourth time stamp is the time when the message is received. Each time a message is received
the oldest two stamps of the four time stamps are saved to become the first two time stamps of the next outgoing message.
The third time stamp of an outgoing message is the time when the message is transmitted. A fixed time shift is allowed
between the stamp values and the actual events, provided the shift for outgoing message time stamps is the same for all
relays, and the shift incoming message time stamps is also identical.
To reduce bandwidth requirements, time stamps are spread over 3 messages. In the case of systems with 4 messages per
cycle, time stamps are sent out on three of the four messages, so a complete set is sent once per cycle. In the case of sys-
tems with 1 message per cycle, three time stamps are sent out each cycle in a single message. The transmit and receive
time stamps are based on the first message in the sequence.
One of the strengths of this approach is that it is not necessary to explicitly identify or match time stamp messages. Usually,
two of the time stamps in an outgoing message are simply taken from the last incoming message. The third time stamp is
the transmittal time. However, there are two circumstances when these time stamps are not available. One situation is
when the first message is transmitted by a given relay. The second is when the exchange is broken long enough to invali-
date the last received set of time stamps (if the exchange is broken for longer than 66 ms, the time stamps from a given
clock could roll over twice, invalidating time difference computations). In either of these situations, the next outgoing set of
time stamps is a special start-up set containing transmittal time only. When such a message is received, nothing is com-
puted from it, except the message time stamp and the received time stamp are saved for the next outgoing message (it is
neither necessary nor desirable to “reset” the local clock when such a message is received).
Error analysis shows that time stamp requirements are not very stringent because of the smoothing behavior of the phase
locked loop. The time stamp can be basically a sample count with enough bits to cover the worst round trip, including chan-
nel delay and processing delay. An 8 bit time stamp with 1 bit corresponding to 1/64 of a cycle will accommodate a round
trip delay of up to 4 cycles, which should be more than adequate.
The computation of round trip delay and phase offset from four time stamps is as follows:
a = Ti – 2 – Ti – 3
b = Ti – Ti – 1
8 i = a + b (EQ 8.26)
i = a – b-
-----------
2
The Ts are the time stamps, with Ti the newest. Delta is the round trip delay. Theta is the clock offset, and is the correct sign
for the feedback loop. Note that the time stamps are unsigned numbers that wrap around, while a and b can be positive or
negative; i must be positive and i can be positive or negative. Some care must be taken in the arithmetic to take into
account possible roll over of any of the time stamps. If Ti – 2 is greater than Ti – 1, there was a roll over in the clock respon-
sible for those two time stamps.
To correct for the roll over, subtract 256 from the round trip and subtract 128 from the phase angle. If Ti – 3 is greater than Ti,
add 256 to the round trip and add 128 to the phase angle. Also, if the above equations are computed using integer values
of time stamps, a conversion to phase angle in radians is required by multiplying by  / 32.

Time stamp values are snapshots of the local 256 bit sample counter taken at the time of the transmission or receipt of the
first message in a time stamp sequence. This could be done either in software or hardware, provided the jitter is limited to
less than plus or minus 130 s. A fixed bias in the time stamp is acceptable, provided it is the same for all terminals.

8.1.12 PHASE LOCKING FILTER
Filters are used in the phase locked loop to assure stability, to reduce phase and frequency noise. This is well known tech-
nology. The primary feedback mechanism shown in the Loop Block Diagram is phase angle information through the well
known proportional plus integral (PI) filter (the Z in the diagram refers to a unit delay, and 1 / (Z – 1) represents a simple
digital first order integrator). This loop is used to provide stability and zero steady state error.
A PI filter has two time parameters that determine dynamic behavior: the gain for the proportional term and the gain for the
integral. Depending on the gains, the transient behavior of the loop can be underdamped, critically damped, or over
damped. For this application, critically damped is a good choice.
This sets a constraint relating the two parameters. A second constraint is derived from the desired time constants of the
loop. By considering the effects of both phase and frequency noise in this application it can be shown that optimum behav-
ior results with a certain proportion between phase and frequency constraints.
A secondary input is formed through the frequency deviation input of the filter. Whenever frequency deviation information is
available, it is used for this input; otherwise, the input is zero. Because frequency is the derivative of phase information, the
appropriate filter for frequency deviation is an integrator, which is combined with the integrator of the PI filter for the phase.
It is very important to combine these two integrators into a single function because it can be shown if two separate integra-
tors are used, they can drift in opposite directions into saturation, because the loop would only drive their sum to zero.
In normal operation, frequency tracking at each terminal matches the tracking at all other terminals, because all terminals
will measure approximately the same frequency deviation. However, if there is not enough current at a terminal to compute
frequency deviation, frequency tracking at that terminal is accomplished indirectly via phase locking to other terminals. A
small phase deviation must be present for the tracking to occur.
Also shown in the loop is the clock itself, because it behaves like an integrator. The clock is implemented in hardware and
software with a crystal oscillator and a counter.

8.1.13 MATCHING PHASELETS
An algorithm is needed to match phaselets, detect lost messages, and detect communications channel failure. Channel fail-
ure is defined by a sequence of lost messages, where the length of the sequence is a design parameter. In any case, the
sequence should be no longer than the maximum sequence number (4 cycles) in order to be able to match up messages
when the channel is assumed to be operating normally.
A channel failure can be detected by a watchdog software timer that times the interval between consecutive incoming mes-
sages. If the interval exceeds a maximum limit, channel failure is declared and the channel recovery process is initiated.
While the channel is assumed to be operating normally, it is still possible for an occasional message to be lost, in which
case fault protection is suspended for the time period that depends on that message, and is resumed on the next occa-
sional message. A lost message is detected simply by looking at the sequence numbers of incoming messages. A lost
message will show up as a gap in the sequence.
Sequence numbers are also used to match messages for the protection computation. Whenever a complete set of current
measurements from all terminals with matching sequence numbers are available, the differential protection function is com-
puted using that set of measurements.
8.1.14 START-UP
Initialization in our peer-to-peer architecture is done independently at each terminal. Relays can be turned on in any order
with the power system either energized or de-energized. Synchronization and protection functions are accomplished auto-
matically whenever enough information is available.
After a relay completes other initialization tasks such as resetting of buffer pointers and determining relay settings, initial
values are computed for any state variables in the loop filters or the protection functions. The relay starts its clock at the
nominal power system frequency. Phaselet information is computed and transmitted.
• Outgoing messages over a given channel are treated in the same way as during the channel recovery process. The
special start-up message is sent each time containing only a single time step value.
• When incoming messages begin arriving over a channel, that channel is placed in service and the loop filters are
started up for that channel.
• Whenever the total clock uncertainty is less than a fixed threshold, the phase locking filter is declared locked and differ-
ential protection is enabled.
8.1.15 HARDWARE AND COMMUNICATION REQUIREMENTS
The average total channel delay in each direction is not critical, provided the total round trip delay is less than 4 power sys-
tem cycles. The jitter is important, and should be less than ±130 s in each direction. The effect of a difference in the aver-
age delay between one direction and the other depends on the number of terminals. In the case of a 2 or 3 terminal system,
the difference is not critical, and can even vary with time. In the case of a 4 or more terminal system, variation in the differ-
ence limits the sensitivity of the system.
• The allowable margin of 130 s jitter includes jitter in servicing the interrupt generated by an incoming message. For
both incoming and outgoing messages, the important parameter is the jitter between when the time stamp is read and
when the message begins to go out or to come in. 8
• The quality of the crystal driving the clock and software sampling is not critical, because of the compensation provided
by the phase and frequency tracking algorithm, unless it is desired to perform under or over frequency protection.
From the point of view of current differential protection only, the important parameter is the rate of drift of crystal fre-
quency, which should be less than 100 parts per million per minute.
• A 6 Mhz clock with a 16-bit hardware counter is adequate, provided the method is used for achieving the 32-bit resolu-
tion that is described in this document.
• An 8-bit time stamp is adequate provided time stamp messages are exchanged once per cycle.
• A 4-bit message sequence number is adequate.

Depending on the 87L settings, channel asymmetry (the difference in the transmitting and receiving paths channel delay)
cannot be higher than 1 to 1.5 ms if channel asymmetry compensation is not used. However, if the relay detects asymmetry
higher than 1.5 ms, the 87L DIFF CH ASYM DET FlexLogic™ operand is set high and the event and target are raised (if they
are enabled in the CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL menu) to provide an indication about potential danger.
8.1.16 ONLINE ESTIMATE OF MEASUREMENT ERRORS
GE's adaptive elliptical restraint characteristic is a good approximation to the cumulative effects of various sources of error
in determining phasors. Sources of error include power system noise, transients, inaccuracy in line charging current com-
putation, current sensor gain, phase and saturation error, clock error, and asynchronous sampling. Errors that can be con-
trolled are driven to zero by the system. For errors that cannot be controlled, all relays compute and sum the error for each
source of error for each phase. The relay computes the error caused by power system noise, CT saturation, harmonics,
and transients. These errors arise because power system currents are not always exactly sinusoidal. The intensity of these
errors varies with time; for example, growing during fault conditions, switching operations, or load variations. The system
treats these errors as a Gaussian distribution in the real and in the imaginary part of each phasor, with a standard deviation
that is estimated from the sum of the squares of the differences between the data samples and the sine function that is
used to fit them. This error has a spectrum of frequencies. Current transformer saturation is included with noise and tran-
sient error. The error for noise, harmonics, transients, and current transformer saturation is computed as follows. First, the
sum of the squares of the errors in the data samples is computed from the sum of squares information for the present
phaselet:
N 2 1
2
SumSquares 1_A  k 
4-
---
N
  i 1_f_A  k p  (EQ 8.28)
p 0
Then fundamental magnitude is computed as follows for the same phaselet:
2 2
I 1_MAG_A  I 1_RE_A   I 1_IM_A  (EQ 8.29)
Finally, the local adaptive restraint term is computed as follows, for each local current:
2 4- 2
 I 1_ADA_A  ---  SumSquares 1_A  k   I 1_MAG_A   (EQ 8.30)
N
Another source of the measurement errors is clock synchronization error, resulting in a clock uncertainty term. The L30
algorithm accounts for two terms of synchronization error corresponding to:
• Raw clock deviation computed from time stamps. There are several effects that cause it to not track exactly. First, the
ping-pong algorithm inherently produces slightly different estimates of clock deviation at each terminal. Second,
because the transmission of time stamps is spread out over several packets, the clock deviation estimate is not up to
date with other information it is combined with. Channel asymmetry also contributes to this term. The clock deviation
computation is indicated in equation 8.15 as i. If 2 channels are used, clock deviation is computed for both channels
and then average of absolute values is computed. If GPS compensation is used, then GPS clock compensation is sub-
tracted from the clock deviation.
• Startup error. This term is used to estimate the initial startup transient of PFLLs. During startup conditions, a decaying
8 exponential is computed to simulate envelope of the error during startup
The clock uncertainty is expressed as:
clock_unc clock_dev start_up_error (EQ 8.31)
Eventually, the local clock error is computed as:

8.1.17 CT SATURATION DETECTION
Current differential protection is inherently dependent on adequate CT performance at all terminals of the protected line,
especially during external faults. CT saturation, particularly when it happens at only one terminal of the line, introduces a
spurious differential current that may cause the differential protection to misoperate.
The L30 applies a dedicated mechanism to cope with CT saturation and ensure security of protection for external faults.
The relay dynamically increases the weight of the square of errors (the so-called ‘sigma’) portion in the total restraint quan-
tity, but for external faults only. The following logic is applied:
• First, the terminal currents are compared against a threshold of 3 pu to detect overcurrent conditions that may be
caused by a fault and may lead to CT saturation.
• For all the terminal currents that are above the 3 pu level, the relative angle difference is calculated. If all three termi-
nals see significant current, then all three pairs (1, 2), (2, 3), and (1, 3) are considered and the maximum angle differ-
ence is used in further calculations.
• Depending on the angle difference between the terminal currents, the value of sigma used for the adaptive restraint
current is increased by the multiple factor of 1, 5, or 2.5 to 5 as shown below. As seen from the figure, a factor of 1 is
used for internal faults, and a factor of 2.5 to 5 is used for external faults. This allows the relay to be simultaneously
sensitive for internal faults and robust for external faults with a possible CT saturation.
If more than one CT is connected to the relay (breaker-and-the half applications), the CT saturation mechanism is executed
between the maximum local current against the sum of all others, then between the maximum local and remote currents to
select the secure multiplier MULT. A Maximum of two (local and remote) is selected and then applied to adaptive restraint.

8.1.18 CHARGING CURRENT COMPENSATION 8

The basic premise for the operation of differential protection schemes in general, and of the L30 line differential element in
particular, is that the sum of the currents entering the protected zone is zero. In the case of a power system transmission
line, this is not entirely true because of the capacitive charging current of the line. For short transmission lines the charging
current is a small factor and can therefore be treated as an unknown error. In this application the L30 can be deployed with-
out voltage sensors and the line charging current is included as a constant term in the total variance, increasing the differ-
ential restraint current. For long transmission lines the charging current is a significant factor, and should be computed to
provide increased sensitivity to fault current.
Compensation for charging current requires the voltage at the terminals be supplied to the relays. The algorithm calculates
C  dv  dt for each phase, which is then subtracted from the measured currents at both ends of the line. This is a simple
approach that provides adequate compensation of the capacitive current at the fundamental power system frequency. Trav-
elling waves on the transmission line are not compensated for, and contribute to restraint by increasing the measurement of
errors in the data set.

The underlying single phase model for compensation for a two and three terminal system are shown below.

Apportioning the total capacitance among the terminals is not critical for compensating the fundamental power system fre-
quency charging current as long as the total capacitance is correct. Compensation at other frequencies will be approximate.
If the VTs are connected in wye, the compensation is accurate for both balanced conditions (i.e. all positive, negative and
zero sequence components of the charging current are compensated). If the VTs are connected in delta, the compensation
is accurate for positive and negative sequence components of the charging current. Since the zero sequence voltage is not
available, the L30 cannot compensate for the zero sequence current.
The compensation scheme continues to work with the breakers open, provided the voltages are measured on the line side
of the breakers.
For very long lines, the distributed nature of the line leads to the classical transmission line equations which can be solved
for voltage and current profiles along the line. What is needed for the compensation model is the effective positive and zero
sequence capacitance seen at the line terminals.
Finally, in some applications the effect of shunt reactors needs to be taken into account. With very long lines shunt reactors
may be installed to provide some of the charging current required by the line. This reduces the amount of charging current
flowing into the line. In this application, the setting for the line capacitance should be the residual capacitance remaining
after subtracting the shunt inductive reactance from the total capacitive reactance at the power system frequency.
8.1.19 DIFFERENTIAL ELEMENT CHARACTERISTICS
8 The differential element is completely dependent on receiving data from the relay at the remote end of the line, therefore,
upon startup, the differential element is disabled until the time synchronization system has aligned both relays to a common
time base. After synchronization is achieved, the differential is enabled. Should the communications channel delay time
increase, such as caused by path switching in a SONET system or failure of the communications power supply, the relay
will act as outlined in the next section.
The L30 incorporates an adaptive differential algorithm based on the traditional percent differential principle. In the tradi-
tional percent differential scheme, the operating parameter is based on the phasor sum of currents in the zone and the
restraint parameter is based on the scalar (or average scalar) sum of the currents in the protected zone - when the operat-
ing parameter divided by the restraint parameter is above the slope setting, the relay will operate. During an external fault,
the operating parameter is relatively small compared to the restraint parameter, whereas for an internal fault, the operating
parameter is relatively large compared to the restraint parameter. Because the traditional scheme is not adaptive, the ele-
ment settings must allow for the maximum amount of error anticipated during an out-of-zone fault, when CT errors may be
high and/or CT saturation may be experienced.

The major difference between the L30 differential scheme and a percent differential scheme is the use of an estimate of
errors in the input currents to increase the restraint parameter during faults, permitting the use of more sensitive settings
than those used in the traditional scheme. The inclusion of the adaptive feature in the scheme produces element character-
istic equations that appear to be different from the traditional scheme, but the differences are minimal during system
steady-state conditions. The element equations are shown in the Operating condition calculations section.
8.1.20 RELAY SYNCHRONIZATION
On startup of the relays, the channel status will be checked first. If channel status is OK, all relays will send a special
“startup” message and the synchronization process will be initiated. It will take about 5 to 7 seconds to declare PFLL status
as OK and to start performing current differential calculations. If one of the relays was powered off during the operation, the
synchronization process will restart from the beginning. Relays tolerate channel delay (resulting sometimes in step change
in communication paths) or interruptions up to four power cycles round trip time (about 66 ms at 60 Hz) without any deteri-
oration in performance. If communications are interrupted for more than four cycles, the following applies:
In two-terminal mode:
1. With second redundant channel, relays will not lose functionality at all if second channel is live.
2. With one channel only, relays have a five second time window. If the channel is restored within this time, it takes about
two to three power cycles of valid PFLL calculations (and if estimated error is still within margin) to declare that PFLL is
OK. If the channel is restored later than 5 seconds, PFLL at both relays will be declared as failed and the re-synchroni-
zation process will be initiated (about 5 to 7 seconds) after channel status becomes OK.
In three-terminal mode:
1. If one of the channels fails, the configuration reverts from master-master to master-slave where the master relay has
both channels live. The master relay PFLL keeps the two slave relays in synchronization, and therefore there is no
time limit for functionality. The PFLL of the slave relays will be suspended (that is, the 87L function will not be per-
formed at these relays but they can still trip via DTT from the master relay) until the channel is restored. If the esti-
mated error is within margin upon channel restoration and after two to three power cycles of valid PFLL calculations,
the PFLL will be declared as OK and the configuration will revert back to master-master.
2. If 2 channels fail, PFLL at all relays will be declared as failed and when the channels are back into service, the re-syn-
chronization process will be initiated (about 5 to 7 seconds) after channel status becomes OK.
Depending on the system configuration (number of terminals and channels), the 87L function operability depends on the
status of channel(s), status of synchronization, and status of channel(s) ID validation. All these states are available as Flex-
Logic™ operands, for viewing in actual values, logged in the event recorder (if events are enabled in 87L menu), and also
trigger targets (if targets are enabled in the 87L function). These FlexLogic™ operands can to be used to trigger alarms,
illuminate LEDs, and be captured in oscillography.
However, the 87L BLOCKED FlexLogic™ operand reflects whether the local current differential function is blocked due to
communications or settings problems. The state of this operand is based on the combination of conditions outlined above.
As such, it is recommended that it be used to enable backup protection if 87L is not available.
The 87L BLOCKED operand is set when the 87L function is enabled and any of the following three conditions apply:
1. At least one channel failed on a two or three-terminal single-channel system, or both channels failed on a two-terminal
two-channel system.
8
2. PFFL has failed or is suspended,
3. A channel ID failure has been detected on at least one channel in a two-terminal single-channel system or in a three-
terminal system, or a channel ID failure has been detected on both channels in a two-terminal dual-channel system.
All L30 communications alarms can be divided by major and minor alarms.
The major alarms are CHANNEL FAIL, PFLL FAIL, and CHANNEL ID FAIL. The relay is blocked automatically if any of these
conditions occur. Therefore, there is no need to assign these operands to a current differential block setting.
The minor alarms are CRC FAIL and LOST PACKET, which are indicators of a poor or noisy communications channel. If the
relay recognizes that a packet is lost or corrupted, the 87L feature is not processed at that protection pass. Instead, it waits
for the next valid packet.

8.2 OPERATING CONDITION CHARACTERISTICS 8 THEORY OF OPERATION
8.2OPERATING CONDITION CHARACTERISTICS 8.2.1 DESCRIPTION
Characteristics of differential elements can be shown in the complex plane. The operating characteristics of the L30 are
fundamentally dependant on the relative ratios of the local and remote current phasor magnitudes and the angles of I loc /
I rem as shown in the Restraint Characteristics figure.
The main factors affecting the trip-restraint decisions are:
1. Difference in angles (+ real represents pure internal fault when currents are essentially in phase, – real represents
external fault when currents are 180° apart).
2. The magnitude of remote current.
3. The magnitude of the local current.
4. Dynamically estimated errors in calculations.
5. Settings.
The following figure also shows the relay's capability to handle week-infeed conditions by increasing the restraint ellipse
when the remote current is relatively small (1.5 pu). Therefore, uncertainty is greater when compared with higher remote
currents (3 pu). The characteristic shown is also dependant on settings. The second graph shows how the relay's trip-
restraint calculation is made with respect to the variation in angle difference between local and remote currents. The char-
acteristic for 3 terminal mode is similar where both remote currents are combined together.

8.3 FAULT LOCATOR 8 THEORY OF OPERATION
8.3FAULT LOCATOR 8.3.1 DESCRIPTION
Fault type determination is required for calculation of fault location – the algorithm uses the angle between the negative and
positive sequence components of the relay currents. To improve accuracy and speed of operation, the fault components of
the currents are used; that is, the pre-fault phasors are subtracted from the measured current phasors. In addition to the
angle relationships, certain extra checks are performed on magnitudes of the negative and zero-sequence currents.
The single-ended fault location method assumes that the fault components of the currents supplied from the local (A) and
remote (B) systems are in phase. The figure below shows an equivalent system for fault location.

9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS 9.1 CT REQUIREMENTS
9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS 9.1CT REQUIREMENTS 9.1.1 INTRODUCTION
In general, proper CT selection is required to provide both adequate fault sensitivity and prevention of operation on high-
current external faults that could result from CT saturation. The use of high-quality CTs (such as class X) improves relay
stability during transients and CT saturation and can increase relay sensitivity. A current differential scheme is highly
dependent on adequate signals from the source CTs. Ideally, CTs selected for line current differential protection should be
based on the criteria described below. If the available CTs do not meet the described criteria, the L30 will still provide good
security for CT saturation for external faults. The L30 adaptive restraint characteristics, based on estimates of measure-
ment errors and CT saturation detection, allow the relay to be secure on external faults while maintaining excellent perfor-
mance for severe internal faults. Where CT characteristics do not meet criteria or where CTs at both ends may have
different characteristics, the differential settings should be adjusted as per section 9.2.1.
The capability of the CTs, and the connected burden, should be checked as follows:
1. The CTs should be class TPX or TPY (class TPZ should only be used after discussion with both the manufacturer of
the CT and GE Multilin) or IEC class 5P20 or better.
2. The CT primary current rating should be somewhat higher than the maximum continuous current, but not extremely
high relative to maximum load because the differential element minimum sensitivity setting is approximately 0.2  CT
rating (the L30 relay allows for different CT ratings at each of the terminals).
3. The VA rating of the CTs should be above the Secondary Burden  CT Rated Secondary Current. The maximum sec-
ondary burden for acceptable performance is:
CT Rated VA

 CT Secondary I rated 
where: Rb = total (two-way) wiring resistance plus any other load

Rr = relay burden at rated secondary current
4. The CT kneepoint voltage (per the Vk curves from the manufacturer) should be higher than the maximum secondary
voltage during a fault. This can be estimated by:

9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS 9.2 CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL (87L) SETTINGS
9.2CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL (87L) SETTINGS 9.2.1 INTRODUCTION
Software is available from the GE Digital Energy website that is helpful in selecting settings for the specific applica-
tion. Checking the performance of selected element settings with respect to known power system fault parameters
NOTE
makes it relatively simple to choose the optimum settings for the application.
This software program is also useful for establishing test parameters. It is strongly recommended this program be
downloaded.
The differential characteristic is defined by four settings: CURRENT DIFF PICKUP, CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 1, CURRENT DIFF
RESTRAINT 2, and CURRENT DIFF BREAK PT (breakpoint). As is typical for current-based differential elements, the settings
are a trade-off between operation on internal faults against restraint during external faults.
9.2.2 CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL PICKUP
This setting established the sensitivity of the element to high impedance faults, and it is therefore desirable to choose a low
level, but this can cause a maloperation for an external fault causing CT saturation. The selection of this setting is influ-
enced by the decision to use charging current compensation. If charging current compensation is Enabled, pickup should
be set to a minimum of 150% of the steady-state line charging current, to a lower limit of 10% of CT rating. If charging cur-
rent compensation is Disabled, pickup should be set to a minimum of 250% of the steady-state line charging current to a
lower limit of 10% of CT rating.
If the CT at one terminal can saturate while the CTs at other terminals do not, this setting should be increased by approxi-
mately 20 to 50% (depending on how heavily saturated the one CT is while the other CTs are not saturated) of CT rating to
prevent operation on a close-in external fault.
9.2.3 CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 1
This setting controls the element characteristic when current is below the breakpoint, where CT errors and saturation
effects are not expected to be significant. The setting is used to provide sensitivity to high impedance internal faults, or
when system configuration limits the fault current to low values. A setting of 10 to 20% is appropriate in most cases, but this
should be raised to 30% if the CTs can perform quite differently during faults.
9.2.4 CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 2
This setting controls the element characteristic when current is above the breakpoint, where CT errors and saturation
effects are expected to be significant. The setting is used to provide security against high current external faults. A setting
of 30 to 40% is appropriate in most cases, but this should be raised to 70% if the CTs can perform quite differently during
faults.
Assigning the CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 1(2) settings to the same value reverts dual slope bias characteristics into
single slope bias characteristics.
NOTE
9.2.5 CURRENT DIFF BREAK POINT
This setting controls the threshold where the relay changes from using the restraint 1 to the restraint 2 characteristics. Two
approaches can be considered.
1. Program the setting to 150 to 200% of the maximum emergency load current on the line, on the assumption that a
maintained current above this level is a fault.
2. Program the setting below the current level where CT saturation and spurious transient differential currents can be
expected. 9
The first approach gives comparatively more security and less sensitivity; the second approach provides less security for
more sensitivity.

9.2 CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL (87L) SETTINGS 9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS
9.2.6 CT TAP
If the CT ratios at the line terminals are different, the CURRENT DIFF CT TAP 1(2) setting must be used to correct the ratios to
a common base. In this case, a user should modify the CURRENT DIFF BREAK PT and CURRENT DIFF PICKUP settings
because the local current phasor is used as a reference to determine which differential equation is used, based on the
value of local and remote currents. If the setting is not modified, the responses of individual relays, especially during an
external fault, can be asymmetrical, as one relay can be below the breakpoint and the other above the breakpoint. There
are two methods to overcome this potential problem:
1. Set CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 1 and CURRENT DIFF RESTRAINT 2 to the same value (e.g. 40% or 50%). This converts the
relay characteristics from dual slope into single slope and the breakpoint becomes immaterial. Next, adjust differential
pickup at all terminals according to CT ratios, referencing the desired pickup to the line primary current (see below).
2. Set the breakpoints in each relay individually in accordance with the local CT ratio and the CT TAP setting. Next, adjust
the differential pickup setting according to the terminal CT ratios. The slope value must be identical at all terminals.
Consider a two-terminal configuration with the following CT ratios for relays 1 and 2.
CT ratio  relay 1  1000  5
(EQ 9.10)
Consequently, we have the following CT tap value for relays 1 and 2.

CT tap  relay 1  2.0
(EQ 9.11)
CT tap  relay 2  0.5
To achieve maximum differential sensitivity, the minimum pickup is set as 0.2 pu at the terminal with the higher CT primary
current; in this case 2000:5 for relay 2. The other terminal pickup is adjusted accordingly. The pickup values are set as fol-
lows:
Pickup  relay 1  0.4
(EQ 9.12)
Choosing relay 1 as a reference with a breakpoint of 5.0, the break point at relay 2 is chosen as follows:
CT ratio  relay 1 
Breakpoint  relay 2  Breakpoint  relay 1   ----------------------------------------
(EQ 9.13)
1000  5
5.0  -------------------- 2.5
2000  5
Use the following equality the verify the calculated breakpoint:
Breakpoint  relay 1   CT ratio  relay 1  Breakpoint  relay 2   CT ratio  relay 2  (EQ 9.14)
Therefore, we have a breakpoint of 5.0 for relay 1 and 2.5 for relay 2.
Now, consider a three-terminal configuration with the following CT ratios for relays 1, 2, and 3.
CT ratio  relay 2  2000  5 (EQ 9.15)
Consequently, we have the following CT tap value for relays 1, 2, and 3.
9 CTtap1  relay 1  2.00 CT tap2  relay 1  0.50

CT tap1  relay 2  0.50 CT tap2  relay 2  0.25 (EQ 9.16)
CT tap1  relay 3  2.00 CT tap2  relay 3  4.00
In this case, the relay channels communicate as follows:

• For relay 1, channel 1 communicates to relay 2 and channel 2 communicates to relay 3

9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS 9.2 CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL (87L) SETTINGS

Consequently, to achieve the maximum sensitivity of 0.2 pu at the terminal with a CT ratio of 2000/5 (400 amps line primary
differential current), the following pickup values are chosen:
Pickup  relay 2  0.2 (EQ 9.17)
Choosing relay as a reference with a breakpoint value of 5.0 pu, breakpoints for relays 2 and 3 are calculated as follows:
(EQ 9.18)
1000  5
5.0  -------------------- 2.5
2000  5
(EQ 9.19)
1000  5
5.0  -------------------- 10.0
500  5
To verify the calculated values, we have:
Breakpoint  relay 1   CT ratio  relay 1  5.0  1000  5 1000
Breakpoint  relay 2   CT ratio  relay 2  2.5  2000  5 1000 (EQ 9.20)
Breakpoint  relay 3   CT ratio  relay 3  10.0  5000  5 1000
This satisfies the equality condition indicated earlier.

During on-load tests, the differential current at all terminals should be the same and generally equal to the charging current
if the tap and CT ratio settings are chosen correctly.

9.3 CHANNEL ASYMMETRY COMPENSATION USING GPS 9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS
9.3CHANNEL ASYMMETRY COMPENSATION USING GPS 9.3.1 DESCRIPTION
As indicated in the Settings chapter, the L30 provides three basic methods of applying channel asymmetry compensation
using GPS. Channel asymmetry can also be monitored with actual values and an indication signalled (FlexLogic operands
87L DIFF 1(2) MAX ASYM asserted) if channel asymmetry exceeds preset values. Depending on the implemented relaying
philosophy, the relay can be programmed to perform the following on the loss of the GPS signal:
1. Enable GPS compensation on the loss of the GPS signal at any terminal and continue to operate the 87L element
(using the memorized value of the last asymmetry) until a change in the channel round-trip delay is detected.
2. Enable GPS compensation on the loss of the GPS signal at any terminal and block the 87L element after a specified
time.
3. Continuously operate the 87L element but only enable GPS compensation when valid GPS signals are available. This
provides less sensitive protection on the loss of the GPS signal at any terminal and runs with higher pickup and
restraint settings.
9.3.2 COMPENSATION METHOD 1
Enable GPS compensation on the loss of the GPS signal at any terminal and continue to operate the 87L element until a
change in the channel round-trip delay is detected.
If GPS is enabled at all terminals and the GPS signal is present, the L30 compensates for the channel asymmetry. On the
loss of the GPS signal, the L30 stores the last measured value of the channel asymmetry per channel and compensates for
the asymmetry until the GPS clock is available. However, if the channel was switched to another physical path during GPS
loss conditions, the 87L element must be blocked, since the channel asymmetry cannot be measured and system is no lon-
ger accurately synchronized. The value of the step change in the channel is preset in L30 POWER SYSTEM settings menu
and signaled by the 87L DIFF 1(2) TIME CHNG FlexLogic™ operand. To implement this method, follow the steps below:
1. Enable Channel Asymmetry compensation by setting it to ON. Assign the GPS receiver failsafe alarm contact with the
setting Block GPS Time Ref.
2. Create FlexLogic™ similar to that shown below to block the 87L element on GPS loss if step change in the channel
delay occurs during GPS loss conditions or on a startup before the GPS signal is valid. For three-terminal systems, the
87L DIFF 1 TIME CHNG operand must be ORed with the 87L DIFF 2 TIME CHNG FlexLogic™ operand. The Block
87L (VO1) output is reset if the GPS signal is restored and the 87L element is ready to operate.

3. Assign virtual output BLOCK 87L (VO1) to the 87L Current Differential Block setting. It can be used to enable backup
protection, raise an alarm, and perform other functions as per the given protection philosophy.
Enable GPS compensation on the loss of the GPS signal at any terminal and block the 87L element after a specified time.
This is a simple and conservative way of using the GPS feature. Follow steps 1 and 3 in compensation method 1. The Flex-
Logic™ is simple: 87L DIFF GPS FAIL-Timer-Virtual Output Block 87L (VO1). It is recommended that the timer be set no
higher than 10 seconds.
Continuously operate the 87L element but enable GPS compensation only when valid GPS signals are available. This pro-
vides less sensitive protection on GPS signal loss at any terminal and runs with higher pickup and restraint settings.
This approach can be used carefully if maximum channel asymmetry is known and doesn't exceed certain values (2.0 to
2.5 ms). The 87L DIFF MAX ASYM operand can be used to monitor and signal maximum channel asymmetry. Essentially,
the L30 switches to another setting group with higher pickup and restraint settings, sacrificing sensitivity to keep the 87L
function operational.
1. Create FlexLogic similar to that shown below to switch the 87L element to Settings Group 2 (with most sensitive set-
tings) if the L30 has a valid GPS time reference. If a GPS or 87L communications failure occurs, the L30 will switch
back to Settings Group 1 with less sensitive settings.

9 APPLICATION OF SETTINGS 9.4 INSTANTANEOUS ELEMENTS
9.4INSTANTANEOUS ELEMENTS 9.4.1 INSTANTANEOUS ELEMENT ERROR DURING L30 SYNCHRONIZATION
As explained in the Theory of Operation chapter, two or three L30 relays are synchronized to each other and to system fre-
quency to provide digital differential protection and accurate measurements for other protection and control functions.
When an L30 system is starting up, the relays adjust their frequency aggressively to bring all relays into synchronization
with the system quickly. The tracking frequency can differ from nominal (or system frequency) by a few Hertz, especially
during the first second of synchronization. The 87L function is blocked during synchronization; therefore, the difference
between system frequency and relay sampling frequency does not affect 87L function. However, instantaneous elements
have additional error caused by the sensitivity of Fourier phasor estimation to the difference between signal frequency and
tracking frequency.
To secure instantaneous element operation, it is recommended either to use FlexLogic as shown below to block the instan-
taneous elements during synchronization, or to use a different setting group with more conservative pickup for this brief
interval.

The elements must be treated selectively. If, for example, the phase undervoltage setting includes margin sufficient to
accommodate the maximum additional error on startup, blocking or delay are not needed for phase undervoltage. Similarly,
if the phase instantaneous overcurrent setting has sufficient margin, blocking is not needed. Note that significant zero-
sequence and negative-sequence current or voltage error will not appear during L30 startup, therefore all elements using
these quantities are safe.

10.1.3 CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL
The 87L element has adaptive restraint and dual slope characteristics. The pickup slope settings and the breakpoint set-
tings determine the element characteristics. The relay displays both local and remote current magnitudes and angles and
the differential current which helps with start-up activities. When a differential condition is detected, the output operands
from the element will be asserted along with energization of faceplate event indicators.
1. Ensure that relay will not issue any undesired signals to other equipment.
2. Ensure that relays are connected to the proper communication media, communications tests have been performed
and the CHANNEL and PFLL STATUS displays indicate OK.
3. Minimum pickup test with local current only:
• Ensure that all 87L setting are properly entered into the relay and connect a test set to the relay to inject current
into Phase A.
• Slowly increase the current until the relay operates and note the pickup value. The theoretical value of operating
current below the breakpoint is given by the following formula, where P is the pickup setting and S1 is the Slope 1
setting (in decimal format):

• Repeat the above test for different slope and pickup settings, if desired.
• Repeat the above tests for Phases B and C.
4. Minimum pickup test with local current and simulated remote current (pure internal fault simulation):
• Disconnect the local relay from the communications channel.
• Loop back the transmit signal to the receive input on the back of the relay.
• Wait until the CHANNEL and PFLL status displays indicate OK.
• Slowly increase the current until the relay operates and note the pickup value. The theoretical value of operating
current below breakpoint is given by the following formula:

 1 TAP  2S 1  1 TAP 
where TAP represents the CT Tap setting for the corresponding channel.
• Repeat the above test for different slope and pickup settings, if desired.
• During the tests, observe the current phasor at ACTUAL VALUES  METERING  87L DIFF CURRENT  LOCAL IA.
This phasor should also be seen at ACTUAL VALUES  METERING  87L DIFF CURRENT  TERMINAL 1(2) IA along
with a phasor of twice the magnitude at ACTUAL VALUES  METERING  87L DIFF CURRENT  IA DIFF.
• Repeat the above tests for Phases B and C.
• Restore the communication circuits to normal.

10.1.4 LOCAL-REMOTE RELAY TESTS
a) DIRECT TRANSFER TRIP (DTT) TESTS

The direct transfer trip is a function by which one relay sends a signal to a remote relay to cause a trip of remote equipment.
The local relay trip outputs will close upon receiving a direct transfer trip from the remote relay. The test procedure is as fol-
lows:
1. Ensure that relay will not issue any undesired signals to other equipment and all previous tests have been completed
successfully.
2. Cycle power off/on in both relays.
3. Verify and record that both relays indicate In Service on the faceplate display.
4. Make the following setting change in the SETTINGS  GROUPED ELEMENTS  LINE DIFFERENTIAL ELEMENT  CUR-
RENT DIFFERENTIAL menu of both relays:
CURRENT DIFF FUNCTION: “Enabled”
5. Verify and record that both relays have established communications by performing the following status check thorough
the ACTUAL VALUES  STATUS  CHANNEL TESTS menu:
CHANNEL 1(2) STATUS: “OK”
6. At the remote relay, make the following changes in the SETTINGS  GROUPED ELEMENTS  LINE DIFFERENTIAL ELE-
MENT  CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL menu:
CURRENT DIFF DTT: “Enabled”
7. At the Local relay, make the following changes in the SETTINGS  INPUTS/OUTPUTS  CONTACT OUTPUT N1 menu:
CONTACT OUTPUT N1 OPERATE: “87L DIFF RECVD DTT”
8. At the Local relay, verify that ACTUAL VALUES  STATUS  CONTACT OUTPUTS  Cont Op N1 is in the “Off” state.
9. Apply current to phase A of the remote relay and increase until 87L operates.
10. At the Local relay, observe ACTUAL VALUES  STATUS  CONTACT OUTPUTS  Cont Op N1 is now in the “On” state.
11. Repeat steps 8 through 10 for phases A and B and observe Contact Outputs N2 and N3, respectively.
12. Repeat steps 8 through 11 with the Remote and Local relays inter-changed.
13. Make the following setting change in the SETTINGS  GROUPED ELEMENTS  LINE DIFFERENTIAL ELEMENT  CUR-
RENT DIFFERENTIAL menu of both relays:
CURRENT DIFF FUNCTION: “Disabled”
14. At the Remote relay, set SETTINGS  INPUTS/OUTPUTS  CONTACT OUTPUT N1  CONTACT OUTPUT N1 OPERATE to
the CURRENT DIFF KEY DTT operand.
15. At the Local relay, observe under the ACTUAL VALUES  STATUS  CONTACT OUTPUTS menu that CONTACT OUTPUT
N1, N2 and N3 are “Off”.
16. At the Remote relay, set SETTINGS  TESTING  FORCE CONTACT INPUTS  FORCE Cont Ip N1 to “Closed”.
17. At the Local relay, observe under ACTUAL VALUES  STATUS  CONTACT OUTPUTS that CONTACT OUTPUT N1, N2 and
N3 are now “On”.
18. At both the Local and Remote relays, return all settings to normal.
b) FINAL TESTS
As proper operation of the relay is fundamentally dependent on the correct installation and wiring of the CTs, it must be con-
firmed that correct data is brought into the relays by an on-load test in which simultaneous measurements of current and
voltage phasors are made at all line terminals. These phasors and differential currents can be monitored at the ACTUAL VAL-
UES  METERING  87L DIFFERENTIAL CURRENT menu where all current magnitudes and angles can be observed and con-
clusions of proper relay interconnections can be made.

11 MAINTENANCE 11.1 MODULES
11 MAINTENANCE 11.1 MODULES 11.1.1 REPLACE A MODULE
Withdraw or insert a module only when control power has been removed from the unit, and be
11
sure to insert only the correct module type into a slot, else personal injury, damage to the unit
or connected equipment, or undesired operation can result.
To avoid damage to the equipment, use proper electrostatic discharge protection (for example, a
static strap) when coming in contact with modules while the relay is energized.
The relay, being modular in design, allows for the withdrawal and insertion of modules. Modules must only be replaced with
like modules in their original factory configured slots.
The enhanced faceplate can be opened to the left, once the thumb screw has been removed, as shown below. This allows
for easy accessibility of the modules for withdrawal. The new wide-angle hinge assembly in the enhanced front panel opens
completely and allows easy access to all modules in the L30.

Figure 11–1: UR MODULE WITHDRAWAL AND INSERTION (ENHANCED FACEPLATE)

The standard faceplate can be opened to the left, once the sliding latch on the right side has been pushed up, as shown
below. This allows for easy accessibility of the modules for withdrawal.
Figure 11–2: UR MODULE WITHDRAWAL AND INSERTION (STANDARD FACEPLATE)

To properly remove a module, the ejector/inserter clips, located at the top and bottom of each module, must be pulled
simultaneously. Before performing this action, control power must be removed from the relay. Record the original loca-
tion of the module to ensure that the same or replacement module is inserted into the correct slot. Modules with current
input provide automatic shorting of external CT circuits.

11.1 MODULES 11 MAINTENANCE
To properly insert a module, ensure that the correct module type is inserted into the correct slot position. The ejector/
11 inserter clips located at the top and at the bottom of each module must be in the disengaged position as the module is
smoothly inserted into the slot. Once the clips have cleared the raised edge of the chassis, engage the clips simultaneously.
When the clips have locked into position, the module will be fully inserted.
CPU connections must be individually disconnected from the module before the module can be removed from the
chassis.

APPENDIX B B.1 MODBUS RTU PROTOCOL
APPENDIX B MODBUS COMMUNICATIONSB.1MODBUS RTU PROTOCOL B.1.1 INTRODUCTION
The UR-series relays support a number of communications protocols to allow connection to equipment such as personal
computers, RTUs, SCADA masters, and programmable logic controllers. The Modicon Modbus RTU protocol is the most
basic protocol supported by the UR. Modbus is available via RS232 or RS485 serial links or via ethernet (using the Mod-
bus/TCP specification). The following description is intended primarily for users who wish to develop their own master com-
munication drivers and applies to the serial Modbus RTU protocol. Note that:
• The UR always acts as a slave device, meaning that it never initiates communications; it only listens and responds to B
requests issued by a master computer.
• For Modbus, a subset of the Remote Terminal Unit (RTU) protocol format is supported that allows extensive monitor-
ing, programming, and control functions using read and write register commands.
B.1.2 PHYSICAL LAYER
The Modbus RTU protocol is hardware-independent so that the physical layer can be any of a variety of standard hardware
configurations including RS232 and RS485. The relay includes a faceplate (front panel) RS232 port and two rear terminal
communications ports that may be configured as RS485, fiber optic, 10Base-T, or 10Base-F. Data flow is half-duplex in all
configurations. See chapter 3 for details on communications wiring.
Each data byte is transmitted in an asynchronous format consisting of 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and possibly 1 parity
bit. This produces a 10 or 11 bit data frame. This can be important for transmission through modems at high bit rates (11 bit
data frames are not supported by many modems at baud rates greater than 300).
The baud rate and parity are independently programmable for each communications port. Baud rates of 300, 1200, 2400,
4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800, 33600, 38400, 57600, or 115200 bps are available. Even, odd, and no parity are avail-
able. Refer to the Communications section of chapter 5 for further details.
The master device in any system must know the address of the slave device with which it is to communicate. The relay will
not act on a request from a master if the address in the request does not match the relay’s slave address (unless the
address is the broadcast address – see below).
A single setting selects the slave address used for all ports, with the exception that for the faceplate port, the relay will
accept any address when the Modbus RTU protocol is used.
B.1.3 DATA LINK LAYER
Communications takes place in packets which are groups of asynchronously framed byte data. The master transmits a
packet to the slave and the slave responds with a packet. The end of a packet is marked by dead-time on the communica-
tions line. The following describes general format for both transmit and receive packets. For exact details on packet format-
ting, refer to subsequent sections describing each function code.
Table B–1: MODBUS PACKET FORMAT

DESCRIPTION SIZE
SLAVE ADDRESS 1 byte
FUNCTION CODE 1 byte
DATA N bytes
CRC 2 bytes
DEAD TIME 3.5 bytes transmission time
• SLAVE ADDRESS: This is the address of the slave device that is intended to receive the packet sent by the master
and to perform the desired action. Each slave device on a communications bus must have a unique address to prevent
bus contention. All of the relay’s ports have the same address which is programmable from 1 to 254; see chapter 5 for
details. Only the addressed slave will respond to a packet that starts with its address. Note that the faceplate port is an
exception to this rule; it will act on a message containing any slave address.
A master transmit packet with slave address 0 indicates a broadcast command. All slaves on the communication link
take action based on the packet, but none respond to the master. Broadcast mode is only recognized when associated
with function code 05h. For any other function code, a packet with broadcast mode slave address 0 will be ignored.

B.1 MODBUS RTU PROTOCOL APPENDIX B
• FUNCTION CODE: This is one of the supported functions codes of the unit which tells the slave what action to per-
form. See the Supported Function Codes section for complete details. An exception response from the slave is indi-
cated by setting the high order bit of the function code in the response packet. See the Exception Responses section
for further details.
• DATA: This will be a variable number of bytes depending on the function code. This may include actual values, set-
tings, or addresses sent by the master to the slave or by the slave to the master.
• CRC: This is a two byte error checking code. The RTU version of Modbus includes a 16-bit cyclic redundancy check
B (CRC-16) with every packet which is an industry standard method used for error detection. If a Modbus slave device
receives a packet in which an error is indicated by the CRC, the slave device will not act upon or respond to the packet
thus preventing any erroneous operations. See the CRC-16 Algorithm section for details on calculating the CRC.
• DEAD TIME: A packet is terminated when no data is received for a period of 3.5 byte transmission times (about 15 ms
at 2400 bps, 2 ms at 19200 bps, and 300 µs at 115200 bps). Consequently, the transmitting device must not allow gaps
between bytes longer than this interval. Once the dead time has expired without a new byte transmission, all slaves
start listening for a new packet from the master except for the addressed slave.
B.1.4 CRC-16 ALGORITHM
The CRC-16 algorithm essentially treats the entire data stream (data bits only; start, stop and parity ignored) as one contin-
uous binary number. This number is first shifted left 16 bits and then divided by a characteristic polynomial
(11000000000000101B). The 16-bit remainder of the division is appended to the end of the packet, MSByte first. The
resulting packet including CRC, when divided by the same polynomial at the receiver will give a zero remainder if no trans-
mission errors have occurred. This algorithm requires the characteristic polynomial to be reverse bit ordered. The most sig-
nificant bit of the characteristic polynomial is dropped, since it does not affect the value of the remainder.
A C programming language implementation of the CRC algorithm will be provided upon request.

Modbus officially defines function codes from 1 to 127 though only a small subset is generally needed. The relay supports
some of these functions, as summarized in the following table. Subsequent sections describe each function code in detail.

06 6 Preset single register Store single setting
10 16 Preset multiple registers Store multiple settings
B.2.2 READ ACTUAL VALUES OR SETTINGS (FUNCTION CODE 03/04H)
This function code allows the master to read one or more consecutive data registers (actual values or settings) from a relay.
Data registers are always 16-bit (two-byte) values transmitted with high order byte first. The maximum number of registers
that can be read in a single packet is 125. See the Modbus memory map table for exact details on the data registers.
Since some PLC implementations of Modbus only support one of function codes 03h and 04h. The L30 interpretation
allows either function code to be used for reading one or more consecutive data registers. The data starting address will
determine the type of data being read. Function codes 03h and 04h are therefore identical.
The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows a master device requesting
three register values starting at address 4050h from slave device 11h (17 decimal); the slave device responds with the val-
ues 40, 300, and 0 from registers 4050h, 4051h, and 4052h, respectively.

always 16 bit (two byte) values transmitted high order byte first. The following table shows the format of the master and
slave packets. The example shows a master device storing the value 200 at memory map address 4051h to slave device
11h (17 dec).

This function code allows the master to modify the contents of a one or more consecutive setting registers in a relay. Setting
registers are 16-bit (two byte) values transmitted high order byte first. The maximum number of setting registers that can be
stored in a single packet is 60. The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows

B.2.6 EXCEPTION RESPONSES
Programming or operation errors usually happen because of illegal data in a packet. These errors result in an exception
response from the slave. The slave detecting one of these errors sends a response packet to the master with the high order
bit of the function code set to 1.
The following table shows the format of the master and slave packets. The example shows a master device sending the
unsupported function code 39h to slave device 11.

B.3 FILE TRANSFERS APPENDIX B
B.3FILE TRANSFERS B.3.1 OBTAINING RELAY FILES VIA MODBUS
a) DESCRIPTION
The UR relay has a generic file transfer facility, meaning that you use the same method to obtain all of the different types of
files from the unit. The Modbus registers that implement file transfer are found in the "Modbus File Transfer (Read/Write)"
and "Modbus File Transfer (Read Only)" modules, starting at address 3100 in the Modbus Memory Map. To read a file from
the UR relay, use the following steps:
B 1. Write the filename to the "Name of file to read" register using a write multiple registers command. If the name is shorter
than 80 characters, you may write only enough registers to include all the text of the filename. Filenames are not case
sensitive.
2. Repeatedly read all the registers in "Modbus File Transfer (Read Only)" using a read multiple registers command. It is
not necessary to read the entire data block, since the UR relay will remember which was the last register you read. The
"position" register is initially zero and thereafter indicates how many bytes (2 times the number of registers) you have
read so far. The "size of..." register indicates the number of bytes of data remaining to read, to a maximum of 244.
3. Keep reading until the "size of..." register is smaller than the number of bytes you are transferring. This condition indi-
cates end of file. Discard any bytes you have read beyond the indicated block size.
4. If you need to re-try a block, read only the "size of.." and "block of data", without reading the position. The file pointer is
only incremented when you read the position register, so the same data block will be returned as was read in the pre-
vious operation. On the next read, check to see if the position is where you expect it to be, and discard the previous
block if it is not (this condition would indicate that the UR relay did not process your original read request).
The UR relay retains connection-specific file transfer information, so files may be read simultaneously on multiple Modbus
connections.
b) OTHER PROTOCOLS
All the files available via Modbus may also be retrieved using the standard file transfer mechanisms in other protocols (for
example, TFTP or MMS).
c) COMTRADE, OSCILLOGRAPHY, AND DATA LOGGER FILES

Oscillography and data logger files are formatted using the COMTRADE file format per IEEE C37.111-1999 Standard Com-
mon Format for Transient Data Exchange (COMTRADE) for Power Systems. The files can be obtained in either text or
binary COMTRADE format.
d) READING OSCILLOGRAPHY FILES

Familiarity with the oscillography feature is required to understand the following description. Refer to the Oscillography sec-
tion in Chapter 5 for additional details.
The Oscillography Number of Triggers register is incremented by one every time a new oscillography file is triggered (cap-
tured) and cleared to zero when oscillography data is cleared. When a new trigger occurs, the associated oscillography file
is assigned a file identifier number equal to the incremented value of this register; the newest file number is equal to the
Oscillography_Number_of_Triggers register. This register can be used to determine if any new data has been captured by
periodically reading it to see if the value has changed; if the number has increased then new data is available.
The Oscillography Number of Records register specifies the maximum number of files (and the number of cycles of data
per file) that can be stored in memory of the relay. The Oscillography Available Records register specifies the actual num-
ber of files that are stored and still available to be read out of the relay.
Writing “Yes” (i.e. the value 1) to the Oscillography Clear Data register clears oscillography data files, clears both the Oscil-
lography Number of Triggers and Oscillography Available Records registers to zero, and sets the Oscillography Last
Cleared Date to the present date and time.
To read binary COMTRADE oscillography files, read the following filenames:
OSCnnnn.CFG and OSCnnn.DAT
e) READING DATA LOGGER FILES

Familiarity with the data logger feature is required to understand this description. Refer to the Data Logger section of Chap-
ter 5 for details. To read the entire data logger in binary COMTRADE format, read the following files.

APPENDIX B B.3 FILE TRANSFERS
datalog.cfg and datalog.dat

To read the entire data logger in ASCII COMTRADE format, read the following files.
dataloga.cfg and dataloga.dat
To limit the range of records to be returned in the COMTRADE files, append the following to the filename before writing it:
• To read from a specific time to the end of the log: <space> startTime
• To read a specific range of records: <space> startTime <space> endTime
B
• Replace <startTime> and <endTime> with Julian dates (seconds since Jan. 1 1970) as numeric text.
f) READING EVENT RECORDER FILES

To read the entire event recorder contents in ASCII format (the only available format), use the following filename:
EVT.TXT
To read from a specific record to the end of the log, use the following filename:
EVTnnn.TXT (replace nnn with the desired starting record number)
To read from a specific record to another specific record, use the following filename:
EVT.TXT xxxxx yyyyy (replace xxxxx with the starting record number and yyyyy with the ending record number)
g) READING FAULT REPORT FILES

Fault report data has been available via the L30 file retrieval mechanism since UR firmware version 2.00. The file name is
faultReport#####.htm. The ##### refers to the fault report record number. The fault report number is a counter that
indicates how many fault reports have ever occurred. The counter rolls over at a value of 65535. Only the last ten fault
reports are available for retrieval; a request for a non-existent fault report file will yield a null file. The current value fault
report counter is available in “Number of Fault Reports” Modbus register at location 0x3020.
For example, if 14 fault reports have occurred then the files faultReport5.htm, faultReport6.htm, up to
faultReport14.htm are available to be read. The expected use of this feature has an external master periodically poll-
ing the “Number of Fault Reports' register. If the value changes, then the master reads all the new files.
The contents of the file is in standard HTML notation and can be viewed via any commercial browser.
B.3.2 MODBUS PASSWORD OPERATION

and the faceplate RS232 connection. Remote access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear com-
munications port. This includes both Ethernet and RS485 connections. Any changes to the local or remote passwords
is to the RS232 port of the faceplate, the local password must be used.
The command password is set up at memory location 4000. Command security is required to change the command pass-
word. Similarly, the setting password is set up at memory location 4002. These are the same settings found in the SETTINGS
 PRODUCT SETUP  PASSWORD SECURITY menu via the keypad. Enabling password security for the faceplate display will
also enable it for Modbus, and vice-versa.
To gain command level security access, the command password must be entered at memory location 4008. To gain setting
level security access, the setting password must be entered at memory location 400A. The entered setting password must
match the current setting password setting, or must be zero, to change settings or download firmware.
Command and setting passwords each have a 30 minute timer. Each timer starts when you enter the particular password,
and is re-started whenever you use it. For example, writing a setting re-starts the setting password timer and writing a com-
mand register or forcing a coil re-starts the command password timer. The value read at memory location 4010 can be used
to confirm whether a command password is enabled or disabled (a value of 0 represents disabled). The value read at mem-
ory location 4011 can be used to confirm whether a setting password is enabled or disabled.

B.3 FILE TRANSFERS APPENDIX B
Command or setting password security access is restricted to the particular port or particular TCP/IP connection on which
the entry was made. Passwords must be entered when accessing the relay through other ports or connections, and the
passwords must be re-entered after disconnecting and re-connecting on TCP/IP.

UR_UINT16 UNSIGNED 16 BIT INTEGER DISPLAY_SCALE DISPLAY SCALING
(unsigned 16-bit integer)
MSB indicates the SI units as a power of ten. LSB indicates the
F002
number of decimal points to display.
UR_SINT16 SIGNED 16 BIT INTEGER
Example: Current values are stored as 32 bit numbers with three
decimal places and base units in Amps. If the retrieved value is
F003 12345.678 A and the display scale equals 0x0302 then the dis-
UR_UINT32 UNSIGNED 32 BIT INTEGER (2 registers) played value on the unit is 12.35 kA.
High order word is stored in the first register.

Low order word is stored in the second register.
F013
POWER_FACTOR (SIGNED 16 BIT INTEGER)
F004 Positive values indicate lagging power factor; negative values

UR_SINT32 SIGNED 32 BIT INTEGER (2 registers) indicate leading.
High order word is stored in the first register/

Low order word is stored in the second register. F040

UR_UINT16 FLEXCURVE DATA (120 points) UR_UINT32 DATE in SR format (alternate format for F050)
A FlexCurve is an array of 120 consecutive data points (x, y) which First 16 bits are Month/Day (MM/DD/xxxx). Month: 1=January,
are interpolated to generate a smooth curve. The y-axis is the user 2=February,...,12=December; Day: 1 to 31 in steps of 1
defined trip or operation time setting; the x-axis is the pickup ratio Last 16 bits are Year (xx/xx/YYYY): 1970 to 2106 in steps of 1
and is pre-defined. Refer to format F119 for a listing of the pickup
ratios; the enumeration value for the pickup ratio indicates the off-
set into the FlexCurve base address where the corresponding time F052
value is stored. UR_UINT32 TIME in SR format (alternate format for F050)
First 16 bits are Hours/Minutes (HH:MM:xx.xxx).
Hours: 0=12am, 1=1am,...,12=12pm,...23=11pm;
Minutes: 0 to 59 in steps of 1
Last 16 bits are Seconds (xx:xx:.SS.SSS): 0=00.000s,
1=00.001,...,59999=59.999s)

0 = H4a, 1 = H4b 2 = H3a, 3 = H3b, 4 = H2a, 5 = H2b, 6 = H1a, descriptor and 1 bit for protection element to form a 16-bit value.
7 = H1b The combined bits are of the form: PTTTTTTTDDDDDDDD,
where P bit if set, indicates that the FlexLogic type is associated
with a protection element state and T represents bits for the BASE
F245 type, and D represents bits for the descriptor.
ENUMERATION: TEST MODE FUNCTION The values in square brackets indicate the base type with P prefix
[PTTTTTTT] and the values in round brackets indicate the descrip-
Value Function tor range. The right most T bit indicates whether the type is an ON
0 Disabled or OFF type. There can be a total of 64 types (plus protection ele-
1 Isolated ments). There can be a total of 256 descriptors of each type.

• IEC 61850-10: Conformance testing
These documents can be obtained from the IEC (http://www.iec.ch). It is strongly recommended that all those involved with
any IEC 61850 implementation obtain this document set.
C.1.2 COMMUNICATION PROFILES
IEC 61850 specifies the use of the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) at the upper (application) layer for transfer
of real-time data. This protocol has been in existence for several of years and provides a set of services suitable for the
transfer of data within a substation LAN environment. Actual MMS protocol services are mapped to IEC 61850 abstract ser-
vices in IEC 61850-8-1.
The L30 relay supports IEC 61850 server services over TCP/IP. The TCP/IP profile requires the L30 to have an IP address
to establish communications. These addresses are located in the SETTINGS  PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATIONS 
NETWORK menu. It is possible to have up to five simultaneous connections (in addition to DNP and Modbus/TCP (non-IEC
61850) connections).
• Client/server: This is a connection-oriented type of communication. The connection is initiated by the client, and com-
munication activity is controlled by the client. IEC 61850 clients are often substation computers running HMI programs
or SOE logging software. Servers are usually substation equipment such as protection relays, meters, RTUs, trans-
former tap changers, or bay controllers.
• Peer-to-peer: This is a non-connection-oriented, high speed type of communication usually between substation equip-
ment such as protection relays. GSSE and GOOSE are methods of peer-to-peer communication.
• Substation configuration language (SCL): A substation configuration language is a number of files used to describe
the configuration of substation equipment. Each configured device has an IEC Capability Description (ICD) file. The
substation single line information is stored in a System Specification Description (SSD) file. The entire substation con-
figuration is stored in a Substation Configuration Description (SCD) file. The SCD file is the combination of the individ-
ual ICD files and the SSD file.

C.2 SERVER DATA ORGANIZATION APPENDIX C
C.2SERVER DATA ORGANIZATION C.2.1 OVERVIEW
IEC 61850 defines an object-oriented approach to data and services. An IEC 61850 physical device can contain one or
more logical device(s). Each logical device can contain many logical nodes. Each logical node can contain many data
objects. Each data object is composed of data attributes and data attribute components. Services are available at each
level for performing various functions, such as reading, writing, control commands, and reporting.
Each L30 IED represents one IEC 61850 physical device. The physical device contains one logical device, and the logical
device contains many logical nodes. The logical node LPHD1 contains information about the L30 IED physical device. The
logical node LLN0 contains information about the L30 IED logical device.
C.2.2 GGIO1: DIGITAL STATUS VALUES
C The GGIO1 logical node is available in the L30 to provide access to as many 128 digital status points and associated time-
stamps and quality flags. The data content must be configured before the data can be used. GGIO1 provides digital status
points for access by clients.
It is intended that clients use GGIO1 in order to access digital status values from the L30. Configuration settings are pro-
vided to allow the selection of the number of digital status indications available in GGIO1 (8 to 128), and to allow the choice
of the L30 FlexLogic operands that drive the status of the GGIO1 status indications. Clients can utilize the IEC 61850 buff-
ered and unbuffered reporting features available from GGIO1 in order to build sequence of events (SOE) logs and HMI dis-
play screens. Buffered reporting should generally be used for SOE logs since the buffering capability reduces the chances
of missing data state changes. Unbuffered reporting should generally be used for local status display.
C.2.3 GGIO2: DIGITAL CONTROL VALUES
The GGIO2 logical node is available to provide access to the L30 virtual inputs. Virtual inputs are single-point control
(binary) values that can be written by clients. They are generally used as control inputs. GGIO2 provides access to the vir-
tual inputs through the IEC 61850 standard control model (ctlModel) services:
• Status only.
• Direct control with normal security.
• SBO control with normal security.
Configuration settings are available to select the control model for each point. Each virtual input used through GGIO2
should have its VIRTUAL INPUT 1(64) FUNCTION setting programmed as “Enabled” and its corresponding GGIO2 CF SPSCO1(64)
CTLMODEL setting programmed to the appropriate control configuration.
C.2.4 GGIO3: DIGITAL STATUS AND ANALOG VALUES FROM GOOSE DATA
The GGIO3 logical node is available to provide access for clients to values received via configurable GOOSE messages.
The values of the digital status indications and analog values in GGIO3 originate in GOOSE messages sent from other
devices.
C.2.5 GGIO4: GENERIC ANALOG MEASURED VALUES
The GGIO4 logical node provides access to as many as 32 analog value points, as well as associated timestamps and
quality flags. The data content must be configured before the data can be used. GGIO4 provides analog values for access
by clients.
It is intended that clients use GGIO4 to access generic analog values from the L30. Configuration settings allow the selec-
tion of the number of analog values available in GGIO4 (4 to 32) and the choice of the FlexAnalog values that determine
the value of the GGIO4 analog inputs. Clients can utilize polling or the IEC 61850 unbuffered reporting feature available
from GGIO4 in order to obtain the analog values provided by GGIO4.
C-2 L30 Line Current Differential System GE Multilin

APPENDIX C C.2 SERVER DATA ORGANIZATION
C.2.6 MMXU: ANALOG MEASURED VALUES
A limited number of measured analog values are available through the MMXU logical nodes.
Each MMXU logical node provides data from a L30 current and voltage source. There is one MMXU available for each con-
figurable source (programmed in the SETTINGS  SYSTEM SETUP  SIGNAL SOURCES menu). MMXU1 provides data
from L30 source 1, and MMXU2 provides data from L30 source 2.
MMXU data is provided in two forms: instantaneous and deadband. The instantaneous values are updated every time a
read operation is performed by a client. The deadband values are calculated as described in IEC 61850 parts 7-1 and 7-3.
The selection of appropriate deadband settings for the L30 is described in chapter 5 of this manual.
IEC 61850 buffered and unbuffered reporting capability is available in all MMXU logical nodes. MMXUx logical nodes pro-
vide the following data for each source:
•
•
MMXU1.MX.TotW: three-phase real power
MMXU1.MX.TotVAr: three-phase reactive power
C
• MMXU1.MX.TotVA: three-phase apparent power
• MMXU1.MX.TotPF: three-phase power factor
• MMXU1.MX.Hz: frequency
• MMXU1.MX.PPV.phsAB: phase AB voltage magnitude and angle
• MMXU1.MX.PPV.phsBC: phase BC voltage magnitude and angle

• MMXU1.MX.PF.phsB: phase B power factor
• MMXU1.MX.PF.phsC: phase C power factor
C.2.7 PROTECTION AND OTHER LOGICAL NODES
The following list describes the protection elements for all UR-series relays. The L30 relay will contain a subset of protec-
tion elements from this list.
• PDIF: bus differential, transformer instantaneous differential, transformer percent differential, current differential

C.2 SERVER DATA ORGANIZATION APPENDIX C
• PDIS: phase distance, ground distance

• PIOC: phase instantaneous overcurrent, neutral instantaneous overcurrent, ground instantaneous overcurrent, nega-
tive-sequence instantaneous overcurrent.
• PTOC: phase time overcurrent, neutral time overcurrent, ground time overcurrent, negative-sequence time overcur-
rent, neutral directional overcurrent, negative-sequence directional overcurrent
• PTUV: phase undervoltage, auxiliary undervoltage, third harmonic neutral undervoltage
• PTOV: phase overvoltage, neutral overvoltage, auxiliary overvoltage, negative sequence overvoltage
• RBRF: breaker failure
• RREC: autoreclosure
• RPSB: power swing detection
C • RFLO: fault locator

• XCBR: breaker control
• XSWI: circuit switch
• CSWI: switch controller
The protection elements listed above contain start (pickup) and operate flags. For example, the start flag for PIOC1 is
PIOC1.ST.Str.general. The operate flag for PIOC1 is PIOC1.ST.Op.general. For the L30 protection elements, these flags
take their values from the pickup and operate FlexLogic operands for the corresponding element.
Some protection elements listed above contain directional start values. For example, the directional start value for PDIS1 is
PDIS1.ST.Str.dirGeneral. This value is built from the directional FlexLogic operands for the element.
The RFLO logical node contains the measurement of the distance to fault calculation in kilometers. This value originates in
the fault locator function.
The XCBR logical node is directly associated with the breaker control feature.
• XCBR1.ST.Loc: This is the state of the XCBR1 local/remote switch. A setting is provided to assign a FlexLogic operand
to determine the state. When local mode is true, IEC 61850 client commands will be rejected.
• XCBR1.ST.Opcnt: This is an operation counter as defined in IEC 61850. Command settings are provided to allow the
counter to be cleared.
• XCBR1.ST.Pos: This is the position of the breaker. The breaker control FlexLogic operands are used to determine this
state.
– Intermediate state (00) is indicated when the BREAKER 1 OPEN and BREAKER 1 CLOSED operands are both On.
– Off state (01) is indicated when the BREAKER 1 OPEN operand is On.
– On state (10) is indicated when the BREAKER 1 CLOSED operand is On.
– Bad state (11) is indicated when the BREAKER 1 OPEN and BREAKER 1 CLOSED operands are Off.
• XCBR1.ST.BlkOpn: This is the state of the block open command logic. When true, breaker open commands from IEC
61850 clients will be rejected.
• XCBR1.ST.BlkCls: This is the state of the block close command logic. When true, breaker close commands from IEC
61850 clients will be rejected.
• XCBR1.CO.Pos: This is where IEC 61850 clients can issue open or close commands to the breaker. SBO control with
normal security is the only supported IEC 61850 control model.
• XCBR1.CO.BlkOpn: This is where IEC 61850 clients can issue block open commands to the breaker. Direct control
with normal security is the only supported IEC 61850 control model.
• XCBR1.CO.BlkCls: This is where IEC 61850 clients can issue block close commands to the breaker. Direct control
with normal security is the only supported IEC 61850 control model.

APPENDIX C C.3 SERVER FEATURES AND CONFIGURATION
C.3SERVER FEATURES AND CONFIGURATION C.3.1 BUFFERED/UNBUFFERED REPORTING
IEC 61850 buffered and unbuffered reporting is provided in the GGIO1 logical nodes (for binary status values) and MMXU1
to MMXU6 (for analog measured values). Report settings can be configured using the EnerVista UR Setup software, sub-
station configurator software, or via an IEC 61850 client. The following items can be configured:
• TrgOps: Trigger options. The following bits are supported by the L30:
– Bit 1: data-change
– Bit 4: integrity
– Bit 5: general interrogation
• OptFlds: Option Fields. The following bits are supported by the L30:
–
–
Bit 1: sequence-number
Bit 2: report-time-stamp
C
– Bit 3: reason-for-inclusion
– Bit 4: data-set-name
– Bit 5: data-reference
– Bit 6: buffer-overflow (for buffered reports only)
– Bit 7: entryID (for buffered reports only)
– Bit 8: conf-revision
– Bit 9: segmentation
• IntgPd: Integrity period.
• BufTm: Buffer time.
C.3.2 FILE TRANSFER
MMS file services are supported to allow transfer of oscillography, event record, or other files from a L30 relay.
C.3.3 TIMESTAMPS AND SCANNING
The timestamp values associated with all IEC 61850 data items represent the time of the last change of either the value or
quality flags of the data item. To accomplish this functionality, all IEC 61850 data items must be regularly scanned for data
changes, and the timestamp updated when a change is detected, regardless of the connection status of any IEC 61850 cli-
ents. For applications where there is no IEC 61850 client in use, the IEC 61850 SERVER SCANNING setting can be pro-
grammed as “Disabled”. If a client is in use, this setting should be programmed as “Enabled” to ensure the proper
generation of IEC 61850 timestamps.
C.3.4 LOGICAL DEVICE NAME
The logical device name is used to identify the IEC 61850 logical device that exists within the L30. This name is composed
of two parts: the IED name setting and the logical device instance. The complete logical device name is the combination of
the two character strings programmed in the IEDNAME and LD INST settings. The default values for these strings are “IED-
Name” and “LDInst”. These values should be changed to reflect a logical naming convention for all IEC 61850 logical
devices in the system.
C.3.5 LOCATION
The LPHD1 logical node contains a data attribute called location (LPHD1.DC.PhyNam.location). This is a character string
meant to describe the physical location of the L30. This attribute is programmed through the LOCATION setting and its
default value is “Location”. This value should be changed to describe the actual physical location of the L30.

C.3 SERVER FEATURES AND CONFIGURATION APPENDIX C
C.3.6 LOGICAL NODE NAME PREFIXES
IEC 61850 specifies that each logical node can have a name with a total length of 11 characters. The name is composed of:
• A five or six-character name prefix.
• A four-character standard name (for example, MMXU, GGIO, PIOC, etc.).
• A one or two-character instantiation index.
Complete names are of the form xxxxxxPIOC1, where the xxxxxx character string is configurable. Details regarding the
logical node naming rules are given in IEC 61850 parts 6 and 7-2. It is recommended that a consistent naming convention
be used for an entire substation project.
C.3.7 CONNECTION TIMING
C A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the L30 to detect ‘dead’ connections. If there is no data
traffic on a TCP connection for greater than two minutes, the connection will be aborted by the L30. This frees up the con-
nection to be used by other clients. Therefore, when using IEC 61850 reporting, clients should configure report control
block items such that an integrity report will be issued at least every 2 minutes (120000 ms). This ensures that the L30 will
not abort the connection. If other MMS data is being polled on the same connection at least once every 2 minutes, this
timeout will not apply.
C.3.8 NON-IEC 61850 DATA
The L30 relay makes available a number of non-IEC 61850 data items. These data items can be accessed through the
“UR” MMS domain. IEC 61850 data can be accessed through the standard IEC 61850 logical device. To access the non-
IEC data items, the INCLUDE NON-IEC DATA setting must be “Enabled”.
C.3.9 COMMUNICATION SOFTWARE UTILITIES
The exact structure and values of the supported IEC 61850 logical nodes can be seen by connecting to a L30 relay with an
MMS browser, such as the “MMS Object Explorer and AXS4-MMS” DDE/OPC server from Sisco Inc.

APPENDIX C C.4 GENERIC SUBSTATION EVENT SERVICES: GSSE AND GOOSE
C.4GENERIC SUBSTATION EVENT SERVICES: GSSE AND GOOSE C.4.1 OVERVIEW
IEC 61850 specifies two types of peer-to-peer data transfer services: Generic Substation State Events (GSSE) and Generic
Object Oriented Substation Events (GOOSE). GSSE services are compatible with UCA 2.0 GOOSE. IEC 61850 GOOSE
services provide virtual LAN (VLAN) support, Ethernet priority tagging, and Ethertype Application ID configuration. The sup-
port for VLANs and priority tagging allows for the optimization of Ethernet network traffic. GOOSE messages can be given
a higher priority than standard Ethernet traffic, and they can be separated onto specific VLANs. Because of the additional
features of GOOSE services versus GSSE services, it is recommended that GOOSE be used wherever backwards com-
patibility with GSSE (or UCA 2.0 GOOSE) is not required.
Devices that transmit GSSE and/or GOOSE messages also function as servers. Each GSSE publisher contains a “GSSE
control block” to configure and control the transmission. Each GOOSE publisher contains a “GOOSE control block” to con-
figure and control the transmission. The transmission is also controlled via device settings. These settings can be seen in
the ICD and/or SCD files, or in the device configuration software or files.
IEC 61850 recommends a default priority value of 4 for GOOSE. Ethernet traffic that does not contain a priority tag has a
C
default priority of 1. More details are specified in IEC 61850 part 8-1.
IEC 61850 recommends that the Ethertype Application ID number be configured according to the GOOSE source. In the
L30, the transmitted GOOSE Application ID number must match the configured receive Application ID number in the
receiver. A common number may be used for all GOOSE transmitters in a system. More details are specified in IEC 61850
part 8-1.
C.4.2 GSSE CONFIGURATION
IEC 61850 Generic Substation Status Event (GSSE) communication is compatible with UCA GOOSE communication.
GSSE messages contain a number of double point status data items. These items are transmitted in two pre-defined data
structures named DNA and UserSt. Each DNA and UserSt item is referred to as a ‘bit pair’. GSSE messages are transmit-
ted in response to state changes in any of the data points contained in the message. GSSE messages always contain the
same number of DNA and UserSt bit pairs. Depending the on the configuration, only some of these bit pairs may have val-
ues that are of interest to receiving devices.
The GSSE FUNCTION, GSSE ID, and GSSE DESTINATION MAC ADDRESS settings are used to configure GSSE transmission.
GSSE FUNCTION is set to “Enabled” to enable the transmission. If a valid multicast Ethernet MAC address is entered for the
GSSE DESTINATION MAC ADDRESS setting, this address will be used as the destination MAC address for GSSE messages. If
a valid multicast Ethernet MAC address is not entered (for example, 00 00 00 00 00 00), the L30 will use the source Ether-
net MAC address as the destination, with the multicast bit set.
C.4.3 FIXED GOOSE
The L30 supports two types of IEC 61850 Generic Object Oriented Substation Event (GOOSE) communication: fixed
GOOSE and configurable GOOSE. All GOOSE messages contain IEC 61850 data collected into a dataset. It is this dataset
that is transferred using GOOSE message services. The dataset transferred using the L30 fixed GOOSE is the same data
that is transferred using the GSSE feature; that is, the DNA and UserSt bit pairs. The FlexLogic operands that determine
the state of the DNA and UserSt bit pairs are configurable via settings, but the fixed GOOSE dataset always contains the
same DNA/UserSt data structure. Upgrading from GSSE to GOOSE services is simply a matter of enabling fixed GOOSE
and disabling GSSE. The remote inputs and outputs are configured in the same manner for both GSSE and fixed GOOSE.
It is recommended that the fixed GOOSE be used for implementations that require GOOSE data transfer between UR-
series IEDs. Configurable GOOSE may be used for implementations that require GOOSE data transfer between UR-series
IEDs and devices from other manufacturers.
C.4.4 CONFIGURABLE GOOSE
The configurable GOOSE feature allows for the configuration of the datasets to be transmitted or received from the L30.
The L30 supports the configuration of eight (8) transmission and reception datasets, allowing for the optimization of data
transfer between devices.

C.4 GENERIC SUBSTATION EVENT SERVICES: GSSE AND GOOSE APPENDIX C
Items programmed for dataset 1 and 2 will have changes in their status transmitted as soon as the change is detected.
Dataset 1 should be used for high-speed transmission of data that is required for applications such as transfer tripping,
blocking, and breaker fail initiate. At least one digital status value needs to be configured in dataset 1 to enable transmis-
sion of all data configured for dataset 1. Configuring analog data only to dataset 1 will not activate transmission.
Items programmed for datasets 3 through 8 will have changes in their status transmitted at a maximum rate of every
100 ms. Datasets 3 through 8 will regularly analyze each data item configured within them every 100 ms to identify if any
changes have been made. If any changes in the data items are detected, these changes will be transmitted through a
GOOSE message. If there are no changes detected during this 100 ms period, no GOOSE message will be sent.
For all datasets 1 through 8, the integrity GOOSE message will still continue to be sent at the pre-configured rate even if no
changes in the data items are detected.
The GOOSE functionality was enhanced to prevent the relay from flooding a communications network with GOOSE mes-
sages due to an oscillation being created that is triggering a message.
C The L30 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be
caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station
components. If erroneously oscillation is detected, the L30 will stop sending GOOSE messages from the dataset for a min-
imum period of one second. Should the oscillation persist after the one second time-out period, the L30 will continue to
block transmission of the dataset. The L30 will assert the MAINTENANCE ALERT: GGIO Ind XXX oscill self-test error mes-
sage on the front panel display, where XXX denotes the data item detected as oscillating.
The configurable GOOSE feature is recommended for applications that require GOOSE data transfer between UR-series
IEDs and devices from other manufacturers. Fixed GOOSE is recommended for applications that require GOOSE data
transfer between UR-series IEDs.
IEC 61850 GOOSE messaging contains a number of configurable parameters, all of which must be correct to achieve the
successful transfer of data. It is critical that the configured datasets at the transmission and reception devices are an exact
match in terms of data structure, and that the GOOSE addresses and name strings match exactly. Manual configuration is
possible, but third-party substation configuration software may be used to automate the process. The EnerVista UR Set-
upsoftware can produce IEC 61850 ICD files and import IEC 61850 SCD files produced by a substation configurator (refer
to the IEC 61850 IED configuration section later in this appendix).
Use independent ports for IEC 61850 communication and take care when configuring the settings,
else loss of protection or misoperation of the relay can result.
The following example illustrates the configuration required to transfer IEC 61850 data items between two devices. The
general steps required for transmission configuration are:
1. Configure the transmission dataset.
The general steps required for reception configuration are:
1. Configure the reception dataset.
This example shows how to configure the transmission and reception of three IEC 61850 data items: a single point status
value, its associated quality flags, and a floating point analog value.
The following procedure illustrates the transmission configuration.
1. Configure the transmission dataset by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION 
IEC 61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  TRANSMISSION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGURABLE
GOOSE 1  CONFIG GSE 1 DATASET ITEMS settings menu:
The transmission dataset now contains a set of quality flags and a single point status Boolean value. The reception
dataset on the receiving device must exactly match this structure.

APPENDIX C C.4 GENERIC SUBSTATION EVENT SERVICES: GSSE AND GOOSE
2. Configure the GOOSE service settings by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION
 IEC 61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  TRANSMISSION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGU-
RABLE GOOSE 1 settings menu:
– Set CONFIG GSE 1 FUNCTION to “Enabled”.

– Set CONFIG GSE 1 ID to an appropriate descriptive string (the default value is “GOOSEOut_1”).
– Set CONFIG GSE 1 DST MAC to a multicast address (for example, 01 00 00 12 34 56).
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 VLAN PRIORITY; the default value of “4” is OK for this example.
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 VLAN ID value; the default value is “0”, but some switches may require this value to be “1”.
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 ETYPE APPID value. This setting represents the Ethertype application ID and must match the
configuration on the receiver (the default value is “0”).
– Set the CONFIG GSE 1 CONFREV value. This value changes automatically as described in IEC 61850 part 7-2. For
this example it can be left at its default value. C
3. Configure the data by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION  IEC 61850 PROTO-
COL  GGIO1 STATUS CONFIGURATION settings menu:
– Set GGIO1 INDICATION 1 to a FlexLogic operand used to provide the status of GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal (for example, a
contact input, virtual input, a protection element status, etc.).
The L30 must be rebooted (control power removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect.
The following procedure illustrates the reception configuration.
1. Configure the reception dataset by making the following changes in the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATION  IEC
61850 PROTOCOL  GSSE/GOOSE CONFIGURATION  RECEPTION  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE  CONFIGURABLE GOOSE

log value. This matches the transmission dataset configuration above.
2. Configure the GOOSE service settings by making the following changes in the INPUTS/OUTPUTS  REMOTE DEVICES
 REMOTE DEVICE 1 settings menu:
– Set REMOTE DEVICE 1 ID to match the GOOSE ID string for the transmitting device. Enter “GOOSEOut_1”.
– Set REMOTE DEVICE 1 ETYPE APPID to match the Ethertype application ID from the transmitting device. This is “0” in
the example above.
– Set the REMOTE DEVICE 1 DATASET value. This value represents the dataset number in use. Since we are using
configurable GOOSE 1 in this example, program this value as “GOOSEIn 1”.
3. Configure the data by making the following changes in the INPUTS/OUTPUTS  REMOTE INPUTS  REMOTE INPUT 1
settings menu:
– Set REMOTE IN 1 DEVICE to “GOOSEOut_1”.
– Set REMOTE IN 1 ITEM to “Dataset Item 2”. This assigns the value of the GGIO3.ST.Ind1.stVal single point status
item to remote input 1.
Remote input 1 can now be used in FlexLogic equations or other settings. The L30 must be rebooted (control power
removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect.
The value of remote input 1 (Boolean on or off) in the receiving device will be determined by the GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal value
in the sending device. The above settings will be automatically populated by the EnerVista UR Setup software when a com-
plete SCD file is created by third party substation configurator software.

C.4 GENERIC SUBSTATION EVENT SERVICES: GSSE AND GOOSE APPENDIX C
C.4.5 ETHERNET MAC ADDRESS FOR GSSE/GOOSE
Ethernet capable devices each contain a unique identifying address called a Media Access Control (MAC) address. This
address cannot be changed and is unique for each Ethernet device produced worldwide. The address is six bytes in length
and is usually represented as six hexadecimal values (for example, 00 A0 F4 01 02 03). It is used in all Ethernet frames as
the ‘source’ address of the frame. Each Ethernet frame also contains a destination address. The destination address can
be different for each Ethernet frame depending on the intended destination of the frame.
A special type of destination address called a multicast address is used when the Ethernet frame can be received by more
than one device. An Ethernet MAC address is multicast when the least significant bit of the first byte is set (for example, 01
00 00 00 00 00 is a multicast address).
GSSE and GOOSE messages must have multicast destination MAC addresses.
By default, the L30 is configured to use an automated multicast MAC scheme. If the L30 destination MAC address setting
C is not a valid multicast address (that is, the least significant bit of the first byte is not set), the address used as the destina-
tion MAC will be the same as the local MAC address, but with the multicast bit set. Thus, if the local MAC address is 00 A0
F4 01 02 03, then the destination MAC address will be 01 A0 F4 01 02 03.
C.4.6 GSSE ID AND GOOSE ID SETTINGS
GSSE messages contain an identifier string used by receiving devices to identify the sender of the message, defined in IEC
61850 part 8-1 as GsID. This is a programmable 65-character string. This string should be chosen to provide a descriptive
name of the originator of the GSSE message.
GOOSE messages contain an identifier string used by receiving devices to identify the sender of the message, defined in
IEC 61850 part 8-1 as GoID. This programmable 65-character string should be a descriptive name of the originator of the
GOOSE message. GOOSE messages also contain two additional character strings used for identification of the message:
DatSet - the name of the associated dataset, and GoCBRef - the reference (name) of the associated GOOSE control block.
These strings are automatically populated and interpreted by the L30; no settings are required.

APPENDIX C C.5 IEC 61850 IMPLEMENTATION VIA ENERVISTA UR SETUP
C.5IEC 61850 IMPLEMENTATION VIA ENERVISTA UR SETUP C.5.1 OVERVIEW
The L30 can be configured for IEC 61850 via the EnerVista UR Setup software as follows.
1. An ICD file is generated for the L30 by the EnerVista UR Setup software that describe the capabilities of the IED.
2. The ICD file is then imported into a system configurator along with other ICD files for other IEDs (from GE or other ven-
dors) for system configuration.
3. The result is saved to a SCD file, which is then imported back to EnerVista UR Setup to create one or more settings
file(s). The settings file(s) can then be used to update the relay(s) with the new configuration information.
The configuration process is illustrated below.
Figure C–1: IED CONFIGURATION PROCESS

• SSD: System Specification Description
• SCD: Substation Configuration Description
The following IEC related tools are referenced in the procedures that describe the IED configuration process for IEC 61850:
• System configurator or Substation configurator: This is an IED independent system level tool that can import or
export configuration files defined by IEC 61850-6. It can import configuration files (ICD) from several IEDs for system
level engineering and is used to add system information shared by different IEDs. The system configuration generates
a substation related configuration file (SCD) which is fed back to the IED configurator (for example, EnerVista UR
Setup) for system related IED configuration. The system configurator should also be able to read a system specifica-
tion file (SSD) to use as base for starting system engineering, or to compare it with an engineered system for the same
substation.
• IED configurator: This is a vendor specific tool that can directly or indirectly generate an ICD file from the IED (for
example, from a settings file). It can also import a system SCL file (SCD) to set communication configuration parame-
ters (that is, required addresses, reception GOOSE datasets, IDs of incoming GOOSE datasets, etc.) for the IED. The
IED configurator functionality is implemented in the GE Multilin EnerVista UR Setup software.
C.5.2 CONFIGURING IEC 61850 SETTINGS
Before creating an ICD file, the user can customize the IEC 61850 related settings for the IED. For example, the IED name
and logical device instance can be specified to uniquely identify the IED within the substation, or transmission GOOSE
datasets created so that the system configurator can configure the cross-communication links to send GOOSE messages
from the IED. Once the IEC 61850 settings are configured, the ICD creation process will recognize the changes and gener-
ate an ICD file that contains the updated settings.
Some of the IED settings will be modified during they system configuration process. For example, a new IP address may be
assigned, line items in a Transmission GOOSE dataset may be added or deleted, or prefixes of some logical nodes may be
changed. While all new configurations will be mapped to the L30 settings file when importing an SCD file, all unchanged
settings will preserve the same values in the new settings file.
These settings can be configured either directly through the relay panel or through the EnerVista UR Setup software (pre-
ferred method). The full list of IEC 61850 related settings for are as follows:
• Network configuration: IP address, IP subnet mask, and default gateway IP address (access through the Settings >
Product Setup > Communications > Network menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).
• Server configuration: IED name and logical device instance (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Com-
munications > IEC 61850 > Server Configuration menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).
• Logical node prefixes, which includes prefixes for all logical nodes except LLN0 (access through the Settings > Prod-
uct Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > Logical Node Prefixes menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).

• MMXU deadbands, which includes deadbands for all available MMXUs. The number of MMXUs is related to the num-
ber of CT/VT modules in the relay. There are two MMXUs for each CT/VT module. For example, if a relay contains two
CT/VT modules, there will be four MMXUs available (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Communica-
tions > IEC 61850 > MMXU Deadbands menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).
• GGIO1 status configuration, which includes the number of status points in GGIO1 as well as the potential internal map-
pings for each GGIO1 indication. However only the number of status points will be used in the ICD creation process
(access through the Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GGIO1 Status Configuration
menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).
• GGIO2 control configuration, which includes ctlModels for all SPCSOs within GGIO2 (access through the Settings >
Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GGIO2 Control Configuration menu tree in EnerVista UR
Setup).
• Configurable transmission GOOSE, which includes eight configurable datasets that can be used for GOOSE transmis-
sion. The GOOSE ID can be specified for each dataset (it must be unique within the IED as well as across the whole
substation), as well as the destination MAC address, VLAN priority, VLAN ID, ETYPE APPID, and the dataset items.
C
The selection of the dataset item is restricted by firmware version; for version 7.1x, only GGIO1.ST.Indx.stVal and
GGIO1.ST.Indx.q are valid selection (where x is between 1 to N, and N is determined by number of GGIO1 status
points). Although configurable transmission GOOSE can also be created and altered by some third-party system con-
figurators, we recommend configuring transmission GOOSE for GE Multilin IEDs before creating the ICD, and strictly
within EnerVista UR Setup software or the front panel display (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Com-
munications > IEC 61850 > GSSE/GOOSE Configuration > Transmission > Tx Configurable GOOSE menu tree
in EnerVista UR Setup).
• Configurable reception GOOSE, which includes eight configurable datasets that can be used for GOOSE reception.
However, unlike datasets for transmission, datasets for reception only contains dataset items, and they are usually cre-
ated automatically by process of importing the SCD file (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Communi-
cations > IEC 61850 > GSSE/GOOSE Configuration > Reception > Rx Configurable GOOSE menu tree in
EnerVista UR Setup).
• Remote devices configuration, which includes remote device ID (GOOSE ID or GoID of the incoming transmission
GOOSE dataset), ETYPE APPID (of the GSE communication block for the incoming transmission GOOSE), and
DATASET (which is the name of the associated reception GOOSE dataset). These settings are usually done automat-
ically by process of importing SCD file (access through the Settings > Inputs/Outputs > Remote Devices menu tree
in EnerVista UR Setup).
• Remote inputs configuration, which includes device (remote device ID) and item (which dataset item in the associated
reception GOOSE dataset to map) values. Only the items with cross-communication link created in SCD file should be
mapped. These configurations are usually done automatically by process of importing SCD file (access through the
Settings > Inputs/Outputs > Remote Inputs menu tree in EnerVista UR Setup).
C.5.3 ABOUT ICD FILES
The SCL language is based on XML, and its syntax definition is described as a W3C XML Schema. ICD is one type of SCL
file (which also includes SSD, CID and SCD files). The ICD file describes the capabilities of an IED and consists of four
major sections:
• Header
• Communication
• IEDs
• DataTypeTemplates

The root file structure of an ICD file is illustrated below.
SCL
Header (id, version, revision, toolID, nameStructure)
Communication
IED (name, type, manufacture, configVersion)
DataTypeTemplates

Figure C–2: ICD FILE STRUCTURE, SCL (ROOT) NODE

The Header node identifies the ICD file and its version, and specifies options for the mapping of names to signals
C The Communication node describes the direct communication connection possibilities between logical nodes by means of
logical buses (sub-networks) and IED access ports. The communication section is structured as follows.
Communication

Figure C–3: ICD FILE STRUCTURE, COMMUNICATIONS NODE

The SubNetwork node contains all access points which can (logically) communicate with the sub-network protocol and
without the intervening router. The ConnectedAP node describes the IED access point connected to this sub-network. The
Address node contains the address parameters of the access point. The GSE node provides the address element for stat-
ing the control block related address parameters, where IdInst is the instance identification of the logical device within the
IED on which the control block is located, and cbName is the name of the control block.
The IED node describes the (pre-)configuration of an IED: its access points, the logical devices, and logical nodes instanti-
ated on it. Furthermore, it defines the capabilities of an IED in terms of communication services offered and, together with
its LNType, instantiated data (DO) and its default or configuration values. There should be only one IED section in an ICD
since it only describes one IED.

The DataTypeTemplates node defines instantiable logical node types. A logical node type is an instantiable template of the
data of a logical node. A LnodeType is referenced each time that this instantiable type is needed with an IED. A logical
node type template is built from DATA (DO) elements, which again have a DO type, which is derived from the DATA classes
(CDC). DOs consist of attributes (DA) or of elements of already defined DO types (SDO). The attribute (DA) has a func-
tional constraint, and can either have a basic type, be an enumeration, or a structure of a DAType. The DAType is built from
BDA elements, defining the structure elements, which again can be BDA elements of have a base type such as DA.

C.5.4 CREATING AN ICD FILE WITH ENERVISTA UR SETUP
An ICD file can be created directly from a connected L30 IED or from an offline L30 settings file with the EnerVista UR
Setup software using the following procedure:
1. Right-click the connected UR-series relay or settings file and select Create ICD File.
2. The EnerVista UR Setup will prompt to save the file. Select the file path and enter the name for the ICD file, then click
OK to generate the file.
The time to create an ICD file from the offline L30 settings file is typically much quicker than create an ICD file directly from
the relay.
C.5.5 ABOUT SCD FILES
System configuration is performed in the system configurator. While many vendors (including GE Multilin) are working their
own system configuration tools, there are some system configurators available in the market (for example, Siemens DIGSI
version 4.6 or above and ASE Visual SCL Beta 0.12).
Although the configuration tools vary from one vendor to another, the procedure is pretty much the same. First, a substation
project must be created, either as an empty template or with some system information by importing a system specification
file (SSD). Then, IEDs are added to the substation. Since each IED is represented by its associated ICD, the ICD files are
imported into the substation project, and the system configurator validates the ICD files during the importing process. If the
ICD files are successfully imported into the substation project, it may be necessary to perform some additional minor steps
to attach the IEDs to the substation (see the system configurator manual for details).
Once all IEDs are inserted into the substation, further configuration is possible, such as:
• Assigning network addresses to individual IEDs.
• Customizing the prefixes of logical nodes.
• Creating cross-communication links (configuring GOOSE messages to send from one IED to others).
When system configurations are complete, the results are saved to an SCD file, which contains not only the configuration
for each IED in the substation, but also the system configuration for the entire substation. Finally, the SCD file is passed
back to the IED configurator (vendor specific tool) to update the new configuration into the IED.
The SCD file consists of at least five major sections:

• Header.
• Substation.
• Communication.
• IED section (one or more).
• DataTypeTemplates.
The root file structure of an SCD file is illustrated below.

ing the control block related address parameters, where IdInst is the instance identification of the logical device within the
IED on which the control block is located, and cbName is the name of the control block.

C.5.6 IMPORTING AN SCD FILE WITH ENERVISTA UR SETUP
The following procedure describes how to update the L30 with the new configuration from an SCD file with the EnerVista
UR Setup software.
1. Right-click anywhere in the files panel and select the Import Contents From SCD File item.
2. Select the saved SCD file and click Open.

3. The software will open the SCD file and then prompt the user to save a UR-series settings file. Select a location and
name for the URS (UR-series relay settings) file.
If there is more than one GE Multilin IED defined in the SCD file, the software prompt the user to save a UR-series set-

Explanation of ‘Sometimes’: Object 12 points are mapped to UR Virtual Inputs. The persistence of Virtual Inputs is
determined by the VIRTUAL INPUT X TYPE settings. Both “Pulse On” and “Latch On” operations perform the same func-
tion in the UR; that is, the appropriate Virtual Input is put into the “On” state. If the Virtual Input is set to “Self-Reset”,
it will reset after one pass of FlexLogic. The On/Off times and Count value are ignored. “Pulse Off” and “Latch Off”
operations put the appropriate Virtual Input into the “Off” state. “Trip” and “Close” operations both put the appropriate
Virtual Input into the “On” state.

The following table identifies the variations, function codes, and qualifiers supported by the L30 in both request messages
and in response messages. For static (non-change-event) objects, requests sent with qualifiers 00, 01, 06, 07, or 08, will be
responded with qualifiers 00 or 01. Static object requests sent with qualifiers 17 or 28 will be responded with qualifiers 17 or
28. For change-event objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are always responded.

Note 1: A default variation refers to the variation responded when variation 0 is requested and/or in class 0, 1, 2, or 3 scans. The default varia-
tions for object types 1, 2, 20, 21, 22, 23, 30, and 32 are selected via relay settings. Refer to the Communications section in Chapter 5
for details. This optimizes the class 0 poll data size.
Note 2: For static (non-change-event) objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are only responded when a request is sent with qualifiers 17 or 28, respec-
tively. Otherwise, static object requests sent with qualifiers 00, 01, 06, 07, or 08, will be responded with qualifiers 00 or 01 (for change-
event objects, qualifiers 17 or 28 are always responded.)
Note 3: Cold restarts are implemented the same as warm restarts – the L30 is not restarted, but the DNP process is restarted.

A counter freeze command has no meaning for counters 8 and 9. L30 Digital Counter values are represented as 32-bit inte-
gers. The DNP 3.0 protocol defines counters to be unsigned integers. Care should be taken when interpreting negative
counter values.

APPENDIX E E.2 DNP POINT LISTS
E.2.4 ANALOG INPUTS
The DNP analog input data points are configured through the PRODUCT SETUP  COMMUNICATIONS  DNP / IEC104 POINT
LISTS  ANALOG INPUT / MME POINTS menu. Refer to the Communications section of Chapter 5 for additional details.
It is important to note that 16-bit and 32-bit variations of analog inputs are transmitted through DNP as signed numbers.
Even for analog input points that are not valid as negative values, the maximum positive representation is 32767 for 16-bit
values and 2147483647 for 32-bit values. This is a DNP requirement.
The deadbands for all Analog Input points are in the same units as the Analog Input quantity. For example, an Analog Input
quantity measured in volts has a corresponding deadband in units of volts. This is in conformance with DNP Technical Bul-

APPENDIX F F.1 RADIUS SERVER CONFIGURATION
APPENDIX F RADIUS SERVERF.1 RADIUS SERVER CONFIGURATION F.1.1 RADIUS SERVER CONFIGURATION
The following procedure is an example of how to set up a simple RADIUS server, where the third-party tool used is also an
example.
1. Download and install FreeRADIUS as the RADIUS server.
2. In the RADIUSD.CONF file, locate the "bind_address" field and enter your RADIUS server IP address.
3. In the USERS.CONF file in the <Path_to_Radius>\etc\raddb folder, add the following text to configure a user "Tester"
with an Administrator role.
Tester:
->User-Password == "Testing1!1"
->GE-UR-Role = Administrator
4. In the CLIENTS.CONF file in the <Path_to_Radius>\etc\raddb folder, add the following text to define a RADIUS client,
where the client IP address is 10.0.0.2, the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0, the shared secret specified here is also
configured on the UR device for successful authentication, and the shortname is a short, optional alias that can be
used in place of the IP address.
client 10.0.0.2/24 {
secret = testing123
shortname = private-network-1
}
5. In the <Path_to_Radius>\etc\raddb folder, create a file called dictionary.ge and add the following content.
# ##########################################################
# GE VSAs
############################################################
VENDOR GE 2910
# Management authorization
BEGIN-VENDOR GE
# Role ID F
ATTRIBUTE GE-UR-Role 1 integer
# GE-UR-ROLE values
VALUE GE-UR-Role Administrator 1
VALUE GE-UR-Role Supervisor 2
VALUE GE-UR-Role Engineer 3
VALUE GE-UR-Role Operator 4
VALUE GE-UR-Role Observer 5
END-VENDOR GE
#############################################################
6. In the dictionary file in the <Path_to_Radius>\etc\raddb folder, add the following line.
$INCLUDE dictionary.ge
7. For the first start, run the RADIUS server in debug mode by entering
<Path_to_Radius>/start_radiusd_debug.bat
8. Set up the RADIUS client on the UR as follows. Access Device > Settings > Product Setup > Security. Configure the
IP address and ports for the RADIUS server. Leave the GE vendor ID field at the default of 2910. Update the RADIUS
shared secret as specified in the CLIENTS.CONF file.
