Chapter 1: Introduction
Introduction
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, will result in death or serious injury.
DANGER
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in death or serious injury.
WARNING
Indicates a hazardous situation which, if not avoided, could result in minor or moderate injury.
CAUTION
Indicates practices not related to personal injury.
NOTICE
Ensure that all connections to the product are correct so as to avoid accidental risk of shock
DANGER and/or fire, for example such as can arise from high voltage connected to low voltage terminals.
Follow the requirements of this manual, including adequate wiring size and type, terminal torque settings, voltage,
current magnitudes applied, and adequate isolation/clearance in external wiring from high to low voltage circuits.
Use the device only for its intended purpose and application.
Ensure that all ground paths are uncompromised for safety purposes during device operation and service.
Ensure that the control power applied to the device, the AC current, and voltage input match the ratings specified on
the relay nameplate. Do not apply current or voltage in excess of the specified limits.
Only qualified personnel are to operate the device. Such personnel must be thoroughly familiar with all safety
cautions and warnings in this manual and with applicable country, regional, utility, and plant safety regulations.
1 Hazardous voltages can exist in the power supply and at the device connection to current transformers, voltage
transformers, control, and test circuit terminals. Make sure all sources of such voltages are isolated prior to
attempting work on the device.
Hazardous voltages can exist when opening the secondary circuits of live current transformers. Make sure that
current transformer secondary circuits are shorted out before making or removing any connection to the current
transformer (CT) input terminals of the device.
For tests with secondary test equipment, ensure that no other sources of voltages or currents are connected to such
equipment and that trip and close commands to the circuit breakers or other switching apparatus are isolated,
unless this is required by the test procedure and is specified by appropriate utility/plant procedure.
When the device is used to control primary equipment, such as circuit breakers, isolators, and other switching
apparatus, all control circuits from the device to the primary equipment must be isolated while personnel are
working on or around this primary equipment to prevent any inadvertent command from this device.
Use an external disconnect to isolate the mains voltage supply.
LED transmitters are classified as IEC 60825-1 Accessible Emission Limit (AEL) Class 1M. Class 1M
CAUTION devices are considered safe to the unaided eye. Do not view directly with optical instruments.
This product is rated to Class A emissions levels and is to be used in Utility, Substation Industrial
NOTICE environments. Not to be used near electronic devices rated for Class B levels.
Product description
and PTP (according to IEEE Std. 1588-2008 or IEC 61588), and it allows access to the relay via any standard web browser
(M60 web pages). The IEC 60870-5-104 protocol is supported on the Ethernet port. The Ethernet port also supports the
Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) of IEC 62439-3 (clause 4, 2012) when purchased as an option.
The EnerVista UR Setup software suite contains an automatic configurator for motor starting settings. The configurator
automatically populates settings and operands for input relays, output relays, trip bus, AC inputs, and signal sources based
on user requirements and the relay features.
Settings and actual values can be accessed from the front panel or EnerVista software.
2 The M60 uses flash memory technology that allows field upgrading as new features are added. Firmware and software are
upgradable.
The following single-line diagram illustrates the relay functionality using American National Standards Institute (ANSI)
device numbers.

2.2 Security
The following security features are available:
• Password security — Basic security present by default
• EnerVista security — Role-based access to various EnerVista software screens and configuration elements. The
feature is present by default in the EnerVista software.
• CyberSentry security — Advanced security available as a software option. When purchased, the options are
automatically enabled, and the default Password security and EnerVista security are disabled.

842838A2.CDR
The following types of authentication are supported by CyberSentry 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 the 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-attributable.
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 is displayed in plain text by the EnerVista software or UR device, nor is such
information ever transmitted without cryptographic protection.
Table Notes:
RW = read and write access
R = read access
Supervisor = RW (default), Administrator = R (default), Administrator = RW (only if Supervisor role is disabled)
NA = the permission is not enforced by CyberSentry security

The UR samples its AC signals at 64 samples per cycle, that is, at 3840 Hz in 60 Hz systems, and 3200 Hz in 50 Hz systems.
The sampling rate is dynamically adjusted to the actual system frequency by an accurate and fast frequency tracking
system.
The A/D converter has the following ranges of AC signals:
Voltages:
RMS values include harmonics, inter-harmonics, DC components, and so on, along with fundamental frequency values.
The true RMS value reflects thermal effects of the current and is used for the thermal related monitoring and protection
functions.
Protection and control functions respond to phasors of the fundamental and/or harmonic frequency components
(magnitudes and angles), with an exception for some functions that have an option for RMS or fundamental
measurements, or some function responding to RMS only. This type of response is explained typically in each element's
section in the instruction manual.
Currents are pre-filtered using a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter. The filter is designed to reject DC components
and low-frequency distortions, without amplifying high-frequency noise. This filter is referred to as a modified MIMIC filter, 2
which provides excellent filtering and overall balance between speed and accuracy of filtering. The filter is cascaded with
the full-cycle Fourier filter for the current phasor estimation.
Voltages are pre-filtered using a patented Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter. The filter has been optimized to reject
voltage transformers specific distortions, such as Capacitive Voltage Transformer (CVT) noise and high-frequency
oscillatory components. The filter is cascaded with the half-cycle Fourier filter for the voltage phasor estimation.
The URs measure power system frequency using the Clarke transformation by estimating the period of the waveform from
two consecutive zero-crossings in the same direction (negative-to-positive). Voltage or current samples are pre-filtered
using a Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter to remove high frequency noise contained in the signal. The period is
used after several security conditions are met, such as true RMS signal must be above 6% nominal for a certain time and
others. If these security conditions are not met, the last valid measurement is used for a specific time after which the UR
reverts to nominal system frequency.
Synchrophasors are calculated using a patented convolution integral algorithm. This algorithm allows use of the same
time stamped samples, which are used for protection and taken at the same sampling frequency. This allows URs to use
one sampling clock for both protection algorithms and synchrophasors.
Synchrophasors on firmware versions 7.23 and up have been tested and certified to meet IEEE C.37.118-2011 and
C.37.118.1a-2014 standards for both metering and protection classes with outputs available up to 60 synchrophasors per
second for the metering class and 120 synchrophasors per second for the protection class. Synchrophasors measurement
are also available via IEC 61850-90-5 protocol.
Contact inputs threshold is settable in the firmware with 17, 33, 84, 166 VDC settings available. Inputs are scanned every
0.5 ms and can be conditioned for the critical applications, using debounce time timer, settable from 0.0 ms to 16.0 ms.
Contact inputs with auto-burnishing are available as well, when external contacts are exposed to the contamination in a
harsh industrial environment.
All measured values are available in the UR metering section on the front panel and via communications protocols.
Measured analog values and binary signals can be captured in COMTRADE format with sampling rates from 8 to 64
samples per power cycle. Analog values can be captured with Data Logger, allowing much slower rates extended over
long period of time.
Other advanced UR order code options are available to support IEC 61850 Ed2.0 (including fast GOOSE, MMS server, 61850
services, ICD/CID/IID files, and so on), IEEE 1588 (IEEE C37.238 power profile) based time synchronization, CyberSentry
(advanced cyber security), the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP), IEC 60870-5-103, and so on.

RS422 distance is based on transmitter power and does not take into consideration the clock source provided
by the user.
NOTE
These power budgets are calculated from the manufacturer’s worst-case transmitter power and worst case
receiver sensitivity.
NOTE
The power budgets for the 1300 nm ELED are calculated from the manufacturer's transmitter power and
receiver sensitivity at ambient temperature. At extreme temperatures these values deviate based on
component tolerance. On average, the output power decreases as the temperature is increased by a factor
1 dB / 5 °C.
Typical distances listed are based on the following assumptions for system loss. As actual losses vary from one
installation to another, the distance covered by your system can vary.

Do not touch any rear terminals while the relay is energized, else death or serious injury can
WARNING result from electrical shock.
The small form-factor pluggable ports (SFPs) are pluggable transceivers. Do not use non-validated
NOTICE 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 and
assigned 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), indicated by an arrow marker on the terminal block. The figure shows an
example of rear terminal assignments.

The operation of voltage and current monitors is reflected with the corresponding FlexLogic operands (CONT OP # VON, CONT OP
# VOFF, and CONT OP # ION) that 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.
See 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. Death or serious injury can
WARNING result from touching live relay contacts.
Where a tilde “~” symbol appears, substitute the slot position of the module. Where 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, give the
NOTICE FlexLogic operand driving the contact output 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 values in the
region of the pickup value).

3 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. The 50 to 70 mA peak current burns any film on the
contacts, 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
contact inputs have common ground, as opposed to four contact inputs sharing one common ground (see the Contact
Input and Output Module Wiring diagrams). This is beneficial when connecting contact inputs to separate voltage sources.
Consequently, 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.
Figure 3-18: Auto-burnish DIP switches
842751A1.CDR
The auto-burnish circuitry has an internal fuse for safety purposes. During regular maintenance, check the auto-burnish
functionality using an oscilloscope.
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
terminals 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 following figure illustrates the
transducer module types (5A, 5C, 5D, 5E, and 5F) and channel arrangements that can be ordered for the relay.

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 provided internally at both communication ports. An
isolated power supply with an optocoupled data interface also acts to reduce noise coupling. To ensure maximum
reliability, ensure that all equipment has similar transient protection devices installed.

IRIG-B is a standard time code format that allows stamping of events to be synchronized among connected devices. The
IRIG-B code allows time accuracies of up to 100 ns. Using the IRIG-B input, the M60 operates an internal oscillator with 1 µs
resolution and accuracy. The IRIG time code formats are serial, width-modulated codes that can be either DC level shifted
or amplitude modulated (AM). Third party equipment is available for generating the IRIG-B signal; this equipment can use a
global positioning system (GPS) satellite system to obtain the time reference so that devices at different geographic
locations can be synchronized.

The interconnection for dual-channel type 7 communications modules is shown as follows. Two-channel modules allow for
a redundant ring configuration. That is, two rings can be created to provide an additional independent data path. The
required connections are: UR1-Tx1 to UR2-Rx1, UR2-Tx1 to UR3-Rx1, UR3-Tx1 to UR4-Rx1, and UR4-Tx1 to UR1-Rx1 for the
first ring; and UR1-Tx2 to UR4-Rx2, UR4-Tx2 to UR3-Rx2, UR3-Tx2 to UR2-Rx2, and UR2-Tx2 to UR1-Rx2 for the second ring.

The following diagram shows the connection for three UR-series relays using two independent communication channels.
UR1 and UR3 have single type 7 communication modules; UR2 has a dual-channel module. The two communication
channels can be of different types, depending on the type 7 modules used. To allow the direct input and output data to
cross-over from channel 1 to channel 2 on UR2, set the DIRECT I/O CHANNEL CROSSOVER setting to “Enabled” on UR2. This
forces UR2 to forward messages received on Rx1 out Tx2, and messages received on Rx2 out Tx1.

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.
AWG 24 twisted shielded pair is recommended for external connections, with the shield grounded only at one end.
Connecting the shield to pin X1a or X6a grounds the shield since these pins are connected internally to ground. Thus, if
pin X1a or X6a is used to ground the shield at one end, do not ground the shield at the other end. This interface module is
protected by surge suppression devices.

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.

3.4.5.1 Description
There are two RS422 inter-relay communications modules available: single-channel RS422 (module 7T) and dual-channel
RS422 (module 7W). The modules can be configured to run at 64 kbps or 128 kbps. AWG 20-24 twisted shielded pair cable
is recommended for external connections. These modules are protected by optically-isolated surge suppression devices.
The shield pins (6a and 7b) are connected internally 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
Match the clock terminating impedance with the impedance of the line.

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. The
following figure shows the concept.
842756A2.CDR
In 2008, GE Digital Energy released revised modules 76 and 77 for C37.94 communication to enable multi-ended fault
location functionality with firmware 5.60 release and higher. All modules 76 and 77 shipped since the change support this
feature and are fully backward compatible with firmware releases below 5.60. For customers using firmware release 5.60
and higher, the module can be identified with "Rev D" printed on the module and is to be used on all ends of M60
3 communication for two and three terminal applications. Failure to use it at all ends results in intermittent communication
alarms. For customers using firmware revisions below 5.60, it is not required to match the revision of the modules installed.
The UR-series C37.94 communication module has six switches to set the clock configuration. The following figure shows
the functions of these control switches.
Figure 3-45: Switches

842753A2.CDR
For the internal timing mode, the system clock is generated internally. Therefore, set the timing switch selection to 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, set the timing selection to
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 2G, 2H, 2I, 2J, 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.
2. Simultaneously pull the ejector/inserter clips located at the top and 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 (channels 1 and 2) to the required timing modes (see description earlier).
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
position as the module is inserted smoothly 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 inserted fully.

the operation of the LEDs on these panels.
Status indicators
• IN SERVICE — Indicates that control power is applied, all monitored inputs/outputs and internal systems are fine, the
relay has been programmed
• TROUBLE — Indicates that the relay has detected an internal problem
• TEST MODE — Indicates that the relay is in test mode. For more information, see the Test Mode section in the Settings
chapter.
• TRIP — Indicates that the selected FlexLogic operand serving as a Trip switch has operated. This indicator always
latches; the reset command must be initiated to allow the latch to be reset.
• ALARM — Indicates that the selected FlexLogic operand serving as an Alarm switch has operated. This indicator is
never latched.
• PICKUP — Indicates that an element is picked up. This indicator is never latched.
Event-cause indicators
Event-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 the 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, and so on. This means that the phase A, B, and C operate
operands 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

5.2 Overview
5.2.1 Introduction to elements
For URs, the term element is used to describe a feature that is based around a comparator. The comparator is provided
with an input (or set of inputs) that is tested against a programmed setting (or group of settings) to determine if the input is
within the defined range that sets the output to logic 1, also referred to as setting the flag. A single comparator can 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 actual values as the input.
An exception to this rule is 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
5 setting group.
The main characteristics of an element are shown on a logic diagram. This includes the inputs, settings, fixed logic, and the
output operands generated. The previous chapter explains how to read a logic diagram, and the abbreviations used in a
diagram are defined in the Abbreviations chapter.
Some settings are specified in per-unit (pu) calculated quantities:
pu quantity = (actual quantity) / (base quantity)
Where the current source is from a single current transformer (CT), the base quantity is the nominal secondary or primary
current of the CT. Use the secondary current base to convert per-unit settings to/from a secondary current value, and use
the primary current base to convert to/from a primary current value.
Where the current source is the sum of two or more CTs with different nominal primary current, the primary base quantity
is the largest nominal primary current. For example, if CT1 = 300 / 5 A and CT2 = 100 / 1 A, then in order to sum these, CT2
is scaled to the CT1 ratio. In this case, the base quantity is 300 A primary, 5 A secondary for CT1, and 300/(100/1) = 3 A
secondary for CT2.
For voltage elements, the primary base quantity is the nominal phase-to-phase primary voltage of the protected system
provided that the VT ratio setting is set to the nominal ratio of the VTs and the secondary voltage setting is set to the
phase-to-phase voltage seen by the relay when the voltage of the protected system in nominal. The UR uses the
convention that nominal voltages in a three-phase system are phase-to-phase voltages.
For example, on a system with a 13.8 kV nominal primary voltage, the base quantity is 13800 V. With 14400:120 V delta-
connected VTs, the secondary base quantity and secondary voltage setting is:
13800
-------------- × 120 = 115 V Eq. 5-1
14400
For wye-connected VTs, the primary and secondary base quantities are as before, but the secondary voltage setting (here
a phase-to-ground value) is:
13800 120
-------------- × -------- = 66.4 V Eq. 5-2
14400 3
Many settings are common to most elements, outlined as follows:
• FUNCTION setting — This setting programs the element to operate when selected as “Enabled.” The factory default is
“Disabled.” Once “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 AC source to be monitored. See the Introduction to AC Sources
section later.
• 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 can be provided to define the
range of the measured parameters that cause the element to pick up.
• 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 remains 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
5
<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 can happen when the element is in the operate state if the reset delay time is not zero.
Not every operand of a given element in a UR relay generates events, only the major output operands. Elements,
asserting output per phase, log operating phase output only, without asserting the common three-phase operand
event.
5.2.2.1 Background
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 can 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.
The basic idea of an AC source is to select a point on the power system where the voltages and currents are of interest. To
illustrate the concept of sources, as applied to current inputs only, consider the breaker-and-a-half scheme that follows. 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 can need access to the individual currents from CT1 and
CT2.

827791A3.CDR
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 can 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
summation 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
5 example as additional information to calculate a restraint current, or to allow the provision of additional protection
features 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 are to be added to form the net current into the protected device.
The internal grouping of current and voltage signals forms an AC 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 for later use. For example, in the scheme shown in the preceding figure, 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
protection elements and as metered quantities.
The UR platform allows for a maximum of six 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 as follows.
Item Maximum number
CT/VT Module 2
CT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 ground channel) 4
VT Bank (3 phase channels, 1 auxiliary channel) 2
Lost password
If all passwords are lost, recovery is possible by resetting the unit to default values. Note that the relay is reset to default
values, not just the passwords.
To reset the unit after a lost password:
1. Email GE customer service at multilin.tech@ge.com with the serial number and using a recognizable corporate email
account. Customer service provides a code to reset the relay to the factory defaults.
2. Enter the reset code on the front panel, under COMMANDS RELAY MAINTENANCE SERVICE COMMAND.
3. Change the default password of ChangeMe1# as outlined in the Set Up CyberSentry and Change Default Password
section at the end of the Installation chapter.
Password requirements
A user account requires an alpha-numeric password that meets the following requirements:
• Password is case-sensitive
• Password cannot contain the user account name or parts of the user account that exceed two consecutive
characters
• Password must be 6 to 20 characters in length
• Password must contain characters from three of the following four categories:
– English uppercase characters (A through Z)
– English lowercase characters (a through z)
– Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
– Non-alphabetic characters (for example, ~, !, @, #, $,%, &)
5 PASSWORD ACCESS:
EVENTS: Disabled
Range: Disabled, Enabled
When entering a settings or command password via EnerVista or any serial interface, the user must enter the
corresponding connection password. If the connection is to the back of the M60, the remote password must be used. If the
connection is to the RS232 port of the faceplate, the local password must be used.
The local setting and command sessions are initiated by the user through the front panel display and are disabled either by
the user or by timeout (via the setting and command level access timeout settings). The remote setting and command
sessions are initiated by the user through the EnerVista software and are disabled either by the user or by timeout.
The state of the session (local or remote, setting or command) determines the state of the following FlexLogic operands:
• ACCESS LOC SETG OFF — Asserted when local setting access is disabled
• ACCESS LOC SETG ON — Asserted when local setting access is enabled
• ACCESS LOC CMND OFF — Asserted when local command access is disabled
• ACCESS LOC CMND ON — Asserted when local command access is enabled
• ACCESS REM SETG OFF — Asserted when remote setting access is disabled
• ACCESS REM SETG ON — Asserted when remote setting access is enabled
• ACCESS REM CMND OFF — Asserted when remote command access is disabled
• ACCESS REM CMND ON — Asserted when remote command access is enabled
A command or setting write operation is required to update the state of the remote and local security
operands listed.
NOTE
PASSWORD ACCESS EVENTS — This setting allows recording of password access events in the event recorder.
As outlined in the previous section, there are two user security access levels, setting and command. Use of a password for
each level controls whether users can enter commands or change settings.
Proper password codes are required to enable each access level. When a CHANGE COMMAND PASSWORD or CHANGE
SETTING PASSWORD setting is programmed to “Yes” via the front panel interface, the following message sequence is
invoked:
1. ENTER NEW PASSWORD: ____________.
2. VERIFY NEW PASSWORD: ____________.
3. NEW PASSWORD HAS BEEN STORED.
To gain write access to a “Restricted” setting, program the ACCESS LEVEL setting in the main security menu to “Setting” and
then change the setting, or attempt to change the setting and follow the prompt to enter the programmed password. If the
password is correctly entered, access is allowed. Access automatically reverts to the “Restricted” level according to the
access level timeout setting values and when power is cycled.
If the setting and command passwords are identical, then this one password allows access to both commands
and settings.
NOTE
If a remote connection is established, local passcodes are not visible.
If you establish a local (serial) connection to the relay, you cannot view remote passcodes.
NOTE
Access supervision
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP SECURITY ACCESS SUPERVISION
ACCESS ACCESS LEVEL See below
SUPERVISION TIMEOUTS
The M60 provides a means to raise an alarm upon failed password entry. If password verification fails 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 ALARMS
command. Therefore, to apply this feature with security, password-protect the Command level. The operand does not
generate events or targets.
If events or targets are required, the UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS operand can be assigned to a digital element programmed with
event logs or targets enabled.
The following table outlines access level timeout settings.
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP SECURITY ACCESS SUPERVISION ACCESS LEVEL TIMEOUTS
ACCESS LEVEL COMMAND LEVEL ACCESS Range: 5 to 480 minutes in steps of 1
TIMEOUTS TIMEOUT: 5 min
These settings allow the user to specify the length of inactivity required before returning to the Restricted access level.
Note that the access level is set to Restricted when control power is cycled.
COMMAND LEVEL ACCESS TIMEOUT — This setting specifies the length of inactivity (no local or remote access) required to
return to Restricted access from the Command password level.
SETTING LEVEL ACCESS TIMEOUT — This setting specifies the length of inactivity (no local or remote access) required to return
to Restricted access from the Command password level.
This feature provides a mechanism to prevent unauthorized or unintended upload of settings to a relay through the local
or remote 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 (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 displays on the front panel.
If this setting is "Off," firmware upgrades are blocked. If this setting is "On," firmware upgrades are allowed.
• REMOTE SETTING AUTH — This setting is used for remote (Ethernet or RS485 interface) 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
providing the remote setting password to gain setting access.
If this setting is "Off," firmware upgrades are blocked. If this setting is "On," firmware upgrades are allowed.
• 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 monitored continuously for an off-to-on transition. When this occurs, local access is permitted and the timer
programmed 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 updates every five 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.
5
The Remote Settings Authorized setting is used for remote (Ethernet or RS485 interface) 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 (on) prior to providing the remote setting
password to gain setting access.
The Access Authorized Timeout setting represents the timeout delay remote setting access. It applies when the Remote
Settings Authorized setting is programmed to any operand except “On” or “Off.” The state of the FlexLogic 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 denied immediately. 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 updates every five seconds.
2. Enable the Enable Security check box in the lower-left corner to enable the security management system.
3. Click the Ok button.
If you force password entry by using this feature, ensure that you know the Administrator password. If you do 5
not know the password and are locked out of the software, contact GE Digital Energy for the default password
NOTE
of a UR device. When using CyberSentry, the default password is "ChangeMe1#".
Security is now enabled for the EnerVista UR Setup software. Upon starting the software, users are now required to enter a
username and password.
3. Select the user access rights by enabling the check box of one or more fields.
3. Modify the user access rights by enabling or disabling one or more of the check boxes.
When the "Server" Authentication Type is selected, the M60 uses the RADIUS server and not its local authentication
database to authenticate the user.
When the "Device" button is selected, the M60 uses its local authentication database and not the RADIUS server to
authenticate the user. In this case, it uses built-in roles (Administrator, Engineer, Supervisor, Operator, Observer), as login
accounts and the associated passwords are stored on the M60 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
authentication (RADIUS) only.
No password or security information is displayed in plain text by the EnerVista software or the UR device, nor are they ever
transmitted without cryptographic protection.
Only (TCP/UDP) ports and services that are needed for device configuration and for customer enabled features
5 NOTE
are open. All the other ports are closed. For example, Modbus is on by default, so its TCP port 502, is open. But if
Modbus is disabled, port 502 is closed. This function has been tested and no unused ports have been found
open.
When CyberSentry is enabled, Modbus communications over Ethernet is encrypted, which is not always tolerated by
SCADA systems. The UR has a bypass access feature for such situations, which allows unencrypted Modbus over Ethernet.
This "Bypass Access" setting is available on the SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP SECURITY SUPERVISORY screen. Note that
other protocols (DNP, 101, 103, 104, EGD) are not encrypted, and they are good communications options for SCADA
systems when CyberSentry is enabled.

LOGIN — This setting is applicable for Device authentication only. This setting allows a user to log in with a specific role, as
outlined here. For the Supervisor role, enable the “Supervisor Role” setting.
Whenever a new role is logged in, the user is prompted to enter a password. Passwords must obey the requirements
specified earlier in the chapter in the Password Requirements section.The UR device supports five roles. Roles have their
corresponding passwords, except the Observer role, which does not require a password.
The roles are defined as follows:
• Administrator — Complete read/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/write access to all settings and commands except configuring Security settings and
firmware upgrades. This role does not allow concurrent access.
• Operator — The Operator has read/write access to all settings under the Commands menu/section. This role does not
exist offline.
• Supervisor — This is only an approving role. This role’s authentication commits setting changes submitted by
Administrator or Engineer. The Supervisor role authenticates to unlock the UR relay for setting changes and not
approve changes after the fact. Only a Supervisor can set the Settings Lock and Firmware Lock in the Security
settings. This role also has the ability to forcefully log off 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 M60 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. It is for factory use only.
NOTE
The Change Local Passwords menu is shown on the front panel and in EnerVista upon successful login of the Administrator
role.
The LOGIN setting in this menu is similar to that described in SETTINGS > PRODUCT SETUP > SECURITY except for the factory
role.
Passwords are stored in text format. No encryption is applied.
In Device authentication mode, the Observer role does not have a password associated with it. In Server
5
authentication mode the Observer role requires a password.
NOTE
If you are locked out of the software, contact GE Digital Energy for the default password. When using
CyberSentry, the default password is "ChangeMe1#".
Once the passwords are set, the Administrator with Supervisor approval can change the role-associated
password.
In CyberSentry, password encryption is not supported.

authentication 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 permission is to re-enable Device authentication. To re-enable Device authentication, the Supervisor unlocks the
device for settings 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
disabled, can enable this feature.

Example: If this setting is enabled and an attempt is made to change settings or upgrade the firmware, the UR device
denies the settings changes or denies upgrading the firmware. If this setting is disabled, the UR device accepts settings
changes and firmware upgrade.
This role is disabled by default.
FACTORY SERVICE MODE — When Enabled, the device can go into factory service mode. For this setting to become enabled a
Supervisor authentication is necessary. The default value is Disabled.
SUPERVISOR ROLE — When Enabled, the Supervisor role is active. To Disable this setting a Supervisor authentication is
necessary. If disabled, the Supervisor role is not allowed to log in. 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
their role after authentication, the Supervisor session remains valid until they switch to another role using MMI or until they
end 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 setup.
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.
5. 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
EnerVista software. The RADIUS server itself also must be configured. The appendix called RADIUS Server at the end of
this instruction manual gives an example of how to set up a simple RADIUS server. Once both the RADIUS server and
the parameters for connecting the 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
NOTICE 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 a 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 (Administrator,
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.
5 When changing settings offline, ensure that only settings permitted by the role that performs the
NOTICE settings 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
displayed 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.
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. This setting displays
when a language other than English was purchased, and the range depends on the order code of the relay.
FLASH MESSAGE TIME — Flash messages are status, warning, error, and information messages displayed in response to
certain key presses during settings programming. These messages override any normal messages. Use this setting to
change the duration of flash messages on the display.
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 using this setting to ensure that 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 M60 has a liquid crystal display
(LCD) and control its backlighting. When the SCREEN SAVER FEATURE is “Enabled,” the LCD backlighting turns off after the
DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT followed by the SCREEN SAVER WAIT TIME, provided that no keys have been pressed and no
target messages are active. When a keypress occurs or a target becomes active, the LCD backlighting turns 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 to
display even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The M60 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 substituted with zero. This applies to
phase and ground current phasors as well as true RMS values and symmetrical components. The cut-off operation applies
5 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.
VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL — This setting modifies the voltage cut-off threshold. Very low secondary voltage measurements
(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 signal. The M60
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 to 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 using the following equations. For Delta connections:
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 does not display. As well, the three-phase energy data do not accumulate 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 signals as
valid measurements. Unless dictated otherwise by a specific application, the default settings of “0.02 pu” for
CURRENT CUT-OFF LEVEL and “1.0 V” for VOLTAGE CUT-OFF LEVEL are recommended.
NOTE
Selected records can be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic operands. Assigning user-
programmable pushbuttons to clear specific records is a typical application for these commands. Since the M60 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-
programmable pushbuttons are protected by the command password. Thus, if they are used to clear records, the user-
programmable pushbuttons can provide extra security if required.
For example, to assign user-programmable pushbutton 1 to clear demand records, apply the following settings.
1. Assign the clear demand function to pushbutton 1 by making the following change in the SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP
CLEAR RELAY RECORDS menu:
CLEAR DEMAND: “PUSHBUTTON 1 ON”

It is important that the baud rate and parity settings agree with the settings used on the computer or other equipment that
is connected to these ports.
The RS485 port 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 distributed control system (DCS), power line carrier (PLC), or a computer using the RS485 ports.
The baud rate for standard RS485 communications can be selected as 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, 19200, 28800,
33600, 38400, 57600, or 115200 bps.
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 that hold the RS485 transmitter active for some time after each transmission.
If the COM2 USAGE setting is “RRTD,” then the COM2 port is used to monitor the RTDs on a remote RTD unit. The remote RTD
unit uses the Modbus RTU protocol over RS485. The RRTD device must have a unique address from 1 to 254. The baud rate
for RRTD communications can be selected as 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 14400, or 19200 bps.
If the RS485 COM2 port is used for an RRTD, then there must not be any other devices connected in the daisy-chain for any
other purpose. The port is strictly dedicated to RRTD usage when COM2 USAGE is selected as “RRTD.”
For changes to the COM2 USAGE setting to take effect, cycle power to the M60.
Example 1
IP1/Mask1: 10.1.1.2/255.255.255.0 (where LAN 1 is 10.1.1.x/255.255.255.0)
5
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)
IP2/Mask2: 11.1.1.2/255.0.0.0 (where LAN2 is 11.x.x.x/255.0.0.0)
IP3/Mask3: 12.1.1.2/255.0.0.0 (where LAN3 is 12.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.

5.3.4.4 Network
As outlined in the previous section, when using more than one Ethernet port, configure each to belong to a different
network or subnet using the IP addresses and mask. Configure the network IP and subnet settings before configuring the
routing settings.
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP COMMUNICATIONS NETWORK 1(3)
NETWORK PORT 1 PRT1 IP ADDRESS: Range: standard IPV4 address format
127.0.0.1
The IP addresses are used with the DNP, Modbus/TCP, IEC 61580, IEC 60870-5-104, TFTP, HTTP, and PRP protocols. PRP is
explained in its own section later.
PRT1 (2 or 3) IP ADDRESS — This setting sets the port’s 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 port’s IPv4 subnet mask in standard IPV4 format. This setting is valid on
port 3 if port 2 REDUNDANCY is set to None.
PRT2 REDUNDANCY — 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 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
Multilink 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 itself and the
switch is good and that communication is healthy for five minutes, then switching back to port 2 is performed. The
delay in switching back ensures that rebooted switching devices connected to the M60, which signal their ports as
active prior to being completely functional, have time to completely initialize themselves and become active. Once
port 2 is active again, port 3 returns to 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.
5 • 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
synchronizes 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 any changes to this setting 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.
This setting is available if REDUNDANCY is set to PRP. All devices in the same PRP network need to have the same multicast
address. Choose an address that does not conflict with another multicast protocol.
It is strongly recommended to have switches used for substation automation that support the Far-End Fault feature,
especially when UR 7 redundancy Failover is selected for redundancy.
The M60 is provided with optional PRP capability. This feature is specified as a software option at the time
of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
The Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) defines a redundancy protocol for high availability in substation automation
networks. It applies to networks based on Ethernet technology (ISO/IEC 8802-3) and is based on the second edition (July
2012) of 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. Identical frames are sent on two completely independent networks that connect 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 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
supply) is encountered, as such scenarios can bring down both LANs simultaneously.
Figure 5-8: Example of parallel redundant network
PRP uses specialized nodes called doubly attached nodes (DANPs) for handling the duplicated frames. DANP devices have
an additional module, called a 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
transparent to the higher layers of the stack.
In addition, 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 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 version. 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 PRP-1.
The relay implements PRP on two of its Ethernet ports, specifically Ports 2 and 3 of the CPU module. Use the previous
section (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 (Ports 2 and 3) operate in redundant mode.
In this mode, Port 3 uses the MAC, IP address, and mask of Port 2.

5 Configure the network IP and subnet settings before configuring the routing settings.
• 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 & Prt1Mask) == (Prt1IP & Prt1Mask) || (RtGwy & Prt2Mask) == (Prt2IP & Prt2Mask) || (RtGwy & Prt3Mask) == (Prt3IP

The serial communication ports utilize the Modbus protocol, unless the port is configured for DNP or IEC 60870-5-103
operation. This allows the EnerVista UR Setup software to be used on the port. UR devices operate as Modbus slave
devices only.
For more information on the protocol, including the memory map table, see the UR Series Communications Guide.
MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS — When using the Modbus protocol on the RS232 port, the M60 responds regardless of the
MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS programmed. For the RS485 port, each device on the serial bus must have a unique slave address
from 1 to 254. Address 0 and addresses from 248 and up are reserved by the Modbus protocol specification, and so their
use here is not recommended. Address 0 is the broadcast address to which all Modbus slave devices listen. When MODBUS
SLAVE ADDRESS is set to 0, the M60 accepts broadcast messages, but in compliance with protocol specifications for
broadcast messages, never replies. Addresses do not have to be sequential, but no two devices can have the same
address or conflicts resulting in errors occur. Generally, starting at 1, set each device added to the link to use the next
higher address. When using Modbus TCP/IP, the client must use the programmed MODBUS SLAVE ADDRESS value in the Unit
Identifier field.
MODBUS TCP PORT NUMBER — Modbus over TCP/IP can also be used on any of the Ethernet ports. The listening TCP port 502
is reserved for Modbus communications, and only in exceptional cases when MODBUS TCP PORT NUMBER is set to any other
port. The MODBUS TCP PORT NUMBER setting sets the TCP port used by Modbus on Ethernet. A MODBUS TCP PORT NUMBER of
0 disables Modbus over TCP/IP, meaning closes the Modbus TCP port. When the port number is changed to 0, the change
takes effect when the M60 is restarted. When it is set to 0, use the front panel or serial port to communicate with the relay.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.

The Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) allows for the optimization of control and data acquisition between the equipment
in the substation and the central control center. The protocol is scalable; that is, it is designed to be compatible with the
latest high speed LAN technology yet still be implemented over slower speed serial links.
The DNP improves upon many master-slave protocols by improving overall communication performance requirements
and provides time-stamping with millisecond accuracy.
The M60 supports the Distributed Network Protocol (DNP) version 3.0. DNP is enabled when the SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP
COMMUNICATIONS PROTOCOL setting is set to DNP 3.0. The M60 can be used as a DNP slave device connected to
multiple DNP masters (usually an RTU or a SCADA master station). Since the M60 maintains two sets of DNP data change
buffers and connection information, two DNP masters can actively communicate with the M60 at one time.
See the UR Series Communications Guide for more information on DNP.
The DNP Channels sub-menu is shown.
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP COMMUNICATIONS DNP PROTOCOL DNP CHANNELS
DNP CHANNELS DNP CHANNEL 1 PORT: Range: NONE, COM2 - RS485, FRONT PANEL - RS232,
NONE NETWORK - TCP, NETWORK - UDP
DNP CHANNEL 2 PORT: Range: NONE, COM2 - RS485, FRONT PANEL - RS232,
NONE NETWORK - TCP
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, DNP is the only protocol running on that port; Modbus or IEC
60870-5-103 are disabled. If DNP is assigned to RS485, the protocol must be set to DNP on the serial port configuration as
well, for the change to take effect. When the DNP CHANNEL 1(2) PORT setting is set to “Network - TCP,” the channel 1(2) DNP
protocol can be used over TCP/IP on the Ethernet ports. When this value is set to “Network - UDP,” the DNP protocol can be
used over UDP/IP on channel 1 only.
Changes to these port settings take effect when power has been cycled to the relay.
5 Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.
NOTE
The DNP ADDRESS setting is the DNP slave address. This number identifies the M60 on a DNP communications link. Assign a
unique address to each DNP slave.
The M60 can specify a maximum of five clients for its DNP connections. These are IP addresses for the controllers to which
the M60 can connect. The settings follow.

DNP NETWORK CLIENT ADDRESS 1: Range: standard IP address
CLIENT ADDRESSES 0.0.0.0

The DNP TCP/UDP PORT NUMBER setting is for normal DNP operation. To close the port, set the port number to 0. The change
takes effect when the M60 is restarted.
The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE FUNCTION is set to “Disabled” for RS485 applications since there is no collision avoidance
mechanism. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE TIMEOUT sets the time the M60 waits for a DNP master to confirm an unsolicited
response. The DNP UNSOL RESPONSE MAX RETRIES setting determines the number of times the M60 retransmits an
unsolicited 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
solicited responses are sent is determined by the M60 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 M60 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 are returned with values 1000 times smaller (for example, a value of 72000 V
on the M60 is returned as 72). These settings are useful when analog input values must be adjusted to fit within certain
ranges in DNP masters. Note that a scale factor of 0.1 is equivalent to a multiplier of 10 (that is, the value is 10 times larger).
The DNP DEFAULT DEADBAND settings determine when to trigger unsolicited responses containing analog input data. These
settings group the M60 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
unsolicited responses from the M60 when any current values change by 15 A, the DNP CURRENT DEFAULT DEADBAND setting
is set to “15.” Note that these settings are the deadband default values. DNP object 34 points can be used to change
deadband values, from the default, for each individual DNP analog input point. Whenever power is removed and re-
applied to the M60, the default deadbands are in effect.
The DNP TIME SYNC IIN PERIOD setting determines how often the Need Time Internal Indication (IIN) bit is set by the M60.
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 provides more robust data transfer over noisy communication channels.
Check the “DNP Points Lists” M60 web page to view the analog inputs and/or binary inputs points lists. This
page can be viewed with a web browser by entering the IP address of the M60 Ethernet port employed to
NOTE
access the M60 Main Menu, then by clicking the Device Information Menu item, then the DNP Points Lists
item.
The DNP OBJECT 1 DEFAULT VARIATION to DNP OBJECT 32 DEFAULT VARIATION settings 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. See the DNP Implementation section in the UR Series Communications
Guide.
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 M60 relay, DNP binary outputs are mapped to virtual inputs. However, 5
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 M60 can be
configured to support paired control points, with each paired control point operating two virtual inputs. The DNP NUMBER
OF PAIRED CONTROL POINTS setting allows configuration of 0 to 32 binary output paired controls. Points not configured as
paired operate on a one-to-one basis.
The DNP TCP CONNECTION TIMEOUT setting specifies a time delay for the detection of dead network TCP connections. If
there is no data traffic on a DNP TCP connection for greater than the time specified by this setting, the connection is
aborted by the M60. This frees up the connection to be re-used by a client. Any change takes effect after cycling power to
the relay.
Up to 256 binary and up to 256 analog input points for the DNP protocol, or the MSP and MME points for IEC 60870-5-104
protocol, can be configured. The value for each point is user-programmable and can be configured by assigning FlexLogic
operands for binary inputs / MSP points or FlexAnalog parameters for analog inputs / MME points.
The menu for the binary input points (DNP) or MSP points (IEC 60870-5-104) follows.

The M60 is provided with optional IEC 61850 communications capability. This feature is specified as a
software option at the time of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
The IEC 61850 settings are accessible in EnerVista software or a substation configuration language (SCL) generating tool.
The path is Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850. The settings are not accessible from the front panel
of the device.
IEC 61850 messaging can form part of protection schemes. Consider IEC 61850 settings with the same
criticality as protection element settings. To ensure reliable performance of protection schemes utilizing IEC
NOTE
61850 messaging, route IEC 61850 traffic on a separate port from SCADA communications, or use redundant,
independent ports, and a high speed network recovery method, such as PRP.
Overview
IEC 61850 is a series of international standards and technical reports applicable to power utility automation systems. It
includes semantics, abstract communication services, specific communication services, performance specifications,
network engineering guidelines, configuration description methodologies, and engineering processes. The standard
enables interoperability among intelligent electronic devices (IEDs) from different suppliers and interoperability among
software configuration tools from different suppliers. Interoperability in this case is the ability for IEDs to operate on the
same network or communication path sharing information and commands, and for configuration tools to understand
each other's configuration files.
The UR series supports a large subset of IEC 61850 features. These are detailed in the UR Series Communications Guide
and include the information model, GOOSE publish, GOOSE subscribe, buffered report server, unbuffered report server, and
Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) query, read, write, and control services. In addition, the UR and EnerVista UR
Setup software support IEC 61850 Substation Configuration Language (SCL) file import/export.
Whereas prior UR releases used edition 1.0 of IEC 61850, this release uses edition 2.0, with certain modifications according
to IEC/TR 61850-90-5. Only edition 2.0 61850 configuration tools can interoperate with edition 2.0 devices such as the UR
7.3x release. The UR release uses edition 2.0 SCL, which differs from edition 1.0 SCL. GSSE, fixed GOOSE, and fixed report
services of previous releases are no longer supported, and thus UR devices of previous releases using these features have
to be converted to configurable GOOSE to communicate with a 7.3x device.
Many settings of UR protection, control, and monitoring elements, that is to say elements that are not concerned with the
IEC 61850 protocol, can nevertheless be accessed via IEC 61850. These settings are documented elsewhere in this Settings
chapter. This section of the Settings chapter deals solely with the settings that configure the IEC 61850 protocol itself.
The maximum number of simultaneous clients supported by the UR series is five.
The IEC 61850 window is divided into a navigation pane on the left and a settings panel on the right. You expand and click
an option on the left to display its panel on the right. The following figure shows an example for Server Configuration. The
setting entry panel contains in the SETTING column the names of the settings, and the settings entry boxes are in the
PARAMETER column. Hovering the mouse over a setting name displays a tool-tip showing the 61850 information model
name of the setting or its location in SCL files.
Figure 5-11: Main IEC 61850 panel
5 Opening the IEC 61850 window while online causes the UR Setup software to retrieve and import an SCL file from the
connected M60. This SCD file contains all the settings in the UR at the time of the file request, both those that are mapped
into the IEC 61850 information model (that is, the "public" sections) and those that are not in the model (that is, the "private"
section). The UR Setup software imports all of these settings into the current session, not just those in the IEC 61850
window. To avoid loss of any unsaved setting changes made in other panels during the current session, all other panels for
the M60 must be closed before the IEC 61850 panel can be opened; the software prompts for this when applicable. Panels
for other devices can be open concurrently to facilitate parameter coordination.
The Restore button restores all settings in the IEC 61850 window to their last saved values. The Default button causes all
settings in the IEC 61850 window to revert to factory default values. Both buttons affect the current panel being displayed.
Neither button affects settings in other than the IEC 61860 window.
Server configuration
The Server Configuration panel contains IEC 61850 settings relevant to the server functions of the IED implementation.
The path is Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > Server Configuration.
The following settings are available, where <iedName> is a syntactic variable representing the present value of the IED
NAME setting.
IED NAME
Range: 1 to 64 VisibleString characters
Default: TEMPLATE
The value entered sets the IED name used by IEC 61850 for the M60. An IED name unique within the network must be
entered for proper operation. Valid characters are upper and lowercase letters, digits, and the underscore (_) character.
The first character must be a letter.
Master functional ldName
Range: 0 to 64 VisibileString characters
Default:
The Master logical device contains the UR logical nodes modelling communications and setting group control. Valid
characters are upper and lowercase letters, digits, and the underscore (_) character. If the number of characters entered
is greater than zero, this setting sets the name used in communications for the Master logical device. If an ldName is
entered, a name unique within the network must be entered for proper operation. The standard recommends choosing
this name according to IEC 81346-1. If the number of characters entered is zero, the name used in communications for
the Master logical device is "<iedName>Master", where <iedName> is the value of setting IED NAME described earlier.
Throughout the remainder of this section, <LDName> is a syntactic variable representing the present name of
the master logical device. Depending on its context, <LDName> can be a product-related name or a function-
NOTE
related name. In SCL files, <LDName> is always the product-related name. In IEC 61850 messages, <LDName>
is the function-related name if one is set by the Master functional ldName setting, otherwise <LDName> is
again the product-related name. The product-related name of the Master logical device is 5
"<iedName>Master". The function related name of the Master logical device is the value of the Master
functional ldName setting.
Master configRev
Range: 0 to 255 ASCII characters
Default:
This data attribute is provided by the protocol to allow the user to declare changes to the semantic of the data model of
the UR. The intent is that the user changes Master configRev each time that the semantic or data model changes, so
that clients can readily detect the change. A semantic change is a logical node getting a new semantic use; for example,
an instance of logical node CSWI is now serving a different physical switch, or an instance of a logical node PDIS is now
used for another zone. A data model change is a change in the presence of logical nodes, data objects, data attributes,
or instance names.
The scope of Maser configRev is the entire relay configuration as the Master logical device is the root logical device.
Similar settings are provided for the other logical nodes; the scope of these other configRev settings is limited to the
corresponding logical device configuration.
paramRev
Range: -2,147,483,648 to 2,147,483,647 in steps of 1
Default: 0
This data attribute is provided by the protocol to make changes to the settings of the M60 apparent to clients. The
Substation Configuration Tool and UR Setup software advance the value of paramRev each time any setting changes.
The M60 increments the value of parmRev when a setting change is made other than through CID file download.
LLN0.Mod.ctlModel
Range: status-only, direct-with-normal-security, sbo-with-normal-security
Default: sbo-with-normal-security
This setting specifies the control service that clients must use to control the TEST MODE FUNCTION of the M60. An "on"
control to <LDName>/LLN0.Mod changes TEST MODE FUNCTION to Disabled, an "on-blocked" control changes it to
Forcible, and a "test/blocked" changes it to Isolated. 5
IEC/MMS TCP PORT NUMBER
Range: 0 to 65535 in steps of 1
Default: 102
This setting allows the user to change the TCP port number for Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) connections.
It is recommended that this setting be left at the default value.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.
NOTE
Configuration Type
Range: G2, E3-2.0
Default: G2
This setting specifies the method used to describe GOOSE subscription configuration in SCL. See the UR Series
Communications Guide for details. Basically, in the G2 mode, the CID file contains IED elements for IEDs subscribed to by
this IED containing GOOSE subscription information. In the E3 2.0 mode, the CID file has only one IED element and GOOSE
subscription information is coded in data objects in the standard LGOS logical node used to monitor reception of the
subscribed GOOSE. UR 7.30 or later accepts either mode.

TxGOOSE
IEC 61850 GOOSE is an efficient method for simultaneous high-speed delivery of a set of generic substation event
information in a publishing physical device to more than one subscribing physical device. A TxGOOSE is a UR element
5 implementing a single IEC 61850 GOOSE message publishing service. The subscribing function in URs is performed by
RxGOOSE elements, as described in the next section. Each UR with IEC 61850 order code options has eight TxGOOSE
elements. Each TxGOOSE element can publish the values of up to 64 FlexLogic or FlexAnalog operands in the UR.
Published TxGOOSE messages configured in the EnerVista UR Setup software can be subscribed by and the published
operand values understood by other UR devices. In fact, they can be subscribed to and understood by any device of any
manufacturer that implements the IEC 61850 edition 1.0 or 2.0 GOOSE subscription mechanism. The messages are
published with a multicast address so that the network sends the messages to all devices; any number of devices that
want to subscribe can.
The entities whose values are published in GOOSE messages are known as members. The members are itemized in an
ordered list known as a data set. Each TxGOOSE can use any one of the data sets provided. See the DataSets section later
for details.
Each enabled TxGOOSE transmits its message whenever a value change is detected in one or more of its members. To
guard against the possibility that such a message is lost in the network before it reaches all subscribers, the message is
quickly retransmitted several times. To allow subscribers to verify that their link to the publisher and the publisher itself are
healthy, each message is also periodically retransmitted even while the values are unchanging. These latter messages are
known as heartbeat messages, while the former are known as event messages. Heartbeat messages also provide means
for a subscriber newly online to receive the published values in the absence of an event.
TxGOOSE1 and TxGOOSE2 scan for value changes in its FlexLogic operand members as frequently as such a change can
occur. TxGOOSE1 and TxGOOSE2 are therefore suitable for highly time critical signals, such as tripping and dynamic
blocking. FlexAnalog members are scanned for value changes only every 250 ms. See the Deadband Settings section later
for a description of what is considered a value change in an analog member.
The remaining TxGOOSE, meaning TxGOOSE3 and up, scan both their FlexLogic and FlexAnalog members for value
changes every 250 ms. They are suited for control applications, such as voltage control or power factor regulation.
The details of TxGOOSE message construction are contained in the UR Series Communications Guide. Knowledge of these
details is not required to configure GOOSE.
The UR does not implement the Fixed-Length encoded GOOSE messages option specified in IEC 61850-8-1:2011 clause
A.3; the UR always uses the ASN.1 Basic encoding rules (as specified in ISO/IEC 8825-1) as specified in IEC 61850-8-1:2004
and as optional in IEC 61850-8-1:2011 clause A.3. So do not try to configure the UR for fixed-offset TxGOOSE.
TxGOOSE
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > TxGOOSE > Access Points to access
the settings that are common to all GOOSE messages published.
The following settings are available.
PORT1 GOOSE ENABLE
Range: Enabled, Disabled
Default: Enabled
When set to Disabled, no GOOSE messages are published on M60 Ethernet port 1, and any GOOSE messages received
on port 1 are ignored. When set to Enabled, all enabled GOOSE messages are published on M60 Ethernet port 1, and any
GOOSE messages received on port 1 are listened to.
M60 Ethernet ports 2 and 3 each have a similar setting.
TxGOOSE UPDATE TIME
Range: 1 to 60 s in steps of 1 s
Default: 60 s
This setting specifies the time interval between heartbeat messages, which are messages that are sent periodically
while no events are detected. The standard suggests that the heartbeat time be less than (actually half) of the
timeAllowedtoLive parameter, which is set by the TxGOOSE TIME TO LIVE settings described later.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > TxGOOSE > TxGOOSE1 to access the
settings for the first TxGOOSE. The settings and functionality for the others are similar.
Figure 5-13: IEC 61850 TxGOOSE panel
TxGOOSE1 FUNCTION
Range: Enabled, Disabled
Default: Enabled
When set to Disabled, TxGOOSE1 messages are not published. When set to Enabled, TxGOOSE1 messages are published.
When TxGOOSE1 to 8 are set to Disabled in EnerVista and subsequently Enabled by writing via MMS, the panel continues
to read Disabled until relaunched. There is no polling capability to update automatically the IEC 61860 readings, so the
panel needs to be closed then opened for the correct status to display.
TxGOOSE1 GoID
Range: 0 to 129 VisibleString characters
Default: TxGOOSE1
The entered value sets the goID value published in TxGOOSE1 messages, and can be used by subscribers to discriminate
the TxGOOSE1 messages from other GOOSE messages.
TxGOOSE1 DatSet
Range: None, DataSet01, DataSet02,...
Default: None
This setting selects the published data set using the UR Setup software designator for the data set. The IEC 61850 name
of the data sets are configured in the Datasets panel, as described later.
An ObjectReference to the data set, which consists of the concatenation of the string "<LDName>/LLN0." and the data
set name, is published in the datSet field of TxGOOSE1 messages and can be used by subscribers to discriminate
TxGOOSE1 messages from other GOOSE messages.
TxGOOSE1 DST MAC
Range: any 12 digit hexadecimal number
Default: 01-0C-CD-01-00-00
The value entered sets the Ethernet destination Media Access Control (MAC) address in published TxGOOSE1 messages.
As the standard requires that the address have the multicast bit set TRUE, that is to say the second digit is set to an odd
number, messages transmitted have the multicast bit set TRUE no matter its value in this setting.
The destination MAC address can be used by the network to restrict message delivery to selected devices that need to
receive them, reducing network loading. This address also can be used by hardware in receiving devices to filter out
messages that are of no interest to them, reducing processor burden. Different filtering algorithms are implemented by
different devices. The standard recommends that the algorithm used by hardware of the receiving device be considered
when assigning destination multicast addresses.
Subscribers can use this address to discriminate TxGOOSE1 messages from other GOOSE messages.
TxGOOSE1 VLAN PRIORITY
Range: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 5-4, 6-4, 6-5, 7-4, 7-5, 7-6
Default: 4
5 When the value entered is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, or 7, the User Priority value in the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag included in published
TxGOOSE1 messages is set to that value. When one of the two-digit values is entered, the dynamic priority feature is
selected: the first event message has the User Priority value of the first digit, and User Priority is decremented in each
following message until reaching the value of the second digit. For instance, if the selected value is 7-5, then the User
Priority values in successive messages beginning with the message triggered by an event is 7, 6, 5, 5, 5, 5, 5, and so on.
Do not make a dynamic priority selection when standard behavior is required.
Network devices can forward a message with a higher priority value before a message with a lower priority value, which
speeds delivery of high priority messages in heavily loaded networks. The standard recommends that higher priority
messages, such as GOOSE, have priority values in the range of 4 to 7.
TxGOOSE1 VLAN ID
Range: 0 to 4095 in steps of 1
Default: 0
The value entered sets the VID value in the IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tag included in published TxGOOSE1 messages. VID can be
used by network devices to direct messages to only selected devices, reducing network burden. VID values of 0 and 1
are assigned by IEEE 802.1Q to other functions and are not to be used for GOOSE.
TxGOOSE1 ETYPE APPID
Range: 0 to 65535 in steps of 1
Default: 0
The value entered sets the APPID value in published GOOSE messages and can be used by subscribers to discriminate
TxGOOSE1 messages from other GOOSE messages.
The standard reserves the value range 0 to 16383 for GOOSE Type 1 (Fast messages), and reserves the value range
32768 to 41151 for GOOSE Type 1A (Trip messages). Some subscribers can process messages in the Type 1A range
faster than messages in the Type 1 range. The standard reserves the default value (0) to indicate lack of configuration.
The standard strongly recommends unique, source-orientated APPIDs within a given system.
TxGOOSE1 ConfRev
Range: 0 to 4294967295 in steps of 1
Default: 1
The value entered sets the confRev value in published GOOSE messages, and can be used by subscribers to discriminate
TxGOOSE messages of the expected configuration revision from messages of a different revision. The standard requires
that confRef be incremented each time the members or the order of the members published is changed, and each time
the data set name is changed. The standard states that the value of 0 is reserved.
TxGOOSE1 RETRANS TIME
Range: 0 to 100 ms in steps of 1 ms
Default: 4 ms
If the entered time is non-zero, when a member value change is detected, four event transmissions are sent, then
heartbeat transmissions resume. The interval between the first and second event transmissions, and between the
second and third, is the time set here. The interval between the third and the fourth event transmission is double the set
time. If the entered time is zero, only a single event transmission occurs, then heartbeat transmissions resume.
TxGOOSE1 TIME TO LIVE
Range: 1 to 300 s in steps of 1 s
Default: 300 s
The value entered sets the timeAllowedtoLive value in published TxGOOSE1 messages. The standard requires
subscribers to assume a failure has occurred when another TxGOOSE1 message is not received within the published
timeAllowedtoLive time.
Base this setting on the TxGOOSE UPDATE TIME and the tolerable number of contiguous message delivery misses. For
example, if the heartbeat time is 10 s, and missing up to three successive messages is tolerable, make the setting 10*3 +
1 = 31 s. The extra second is to ensure that arrival of the third heartbeat transmission beats the timeAllowedtoLive timer.
The standard suggests that the heartbeat time be less than (actually half) of the timeAllowedtoLive parameter. 5
RxGOOSE
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > RxGOOSE > RxGOOSE Messages.
IEC 61850, GOOSE is an efficient method for simultaneous high-speed delivery of the same generic substation event
information in a publishing physical device to more than one subscribing physical device. An RxGOOSE is a UR element
implementing a single IEC 61850 GOOSE message subscribing service. The publishing function in URs is performed by
TxGOOSE elements, as described in the previous section. Each M60 has 16 RxGOOSE elements. Each RxGOOSE element
can subscribe to GOOSE messages from a specified publisher. Subscribed messages can contain up to 64 of any set of
data attributes with basic types BOOLEAN, FLOAT32, INT32, Dbpos, TimeStamp, or Quality. Messages containing data
objects, that is to say structured data, are not accepted.
With these conditions, GOOSE messages from any device of any manufacturer that implements the IEC 61850 edition 1.0
or 2.0 GOOSE publish service can be subscribed to. The UR accepts both the variable-length encoded GOOSE messages
specified in IEC 61850-8-1:2004 and the Fixed-Length encoded GOOSE messages as specified in IEC 61850-8-1:2011
clause A.3.
Each enabled RxGOOSE monitors for interruption of the GOOSE messages that it subscribes to based on the value in the
timeAllowedtoLive field of the last message received. If a new message is not received within that time interval, the
RxGOOSE assumes that connectivity is lost. FlexLogic operands (for example, RxGOOSE1 On, RxGOOSE1 Off) reflect the
status of each RxGOOSE connectivity. RxGOOSE connectivity of an RxGOOSE with non-zero MAC address is also considered
lost after the M60 finishes restart until a message is received. When RxGOOSE connectivity is lost, a common RxGOOSE Fail
self-test activates.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > RxGOOSE > RxGOOSE Messages >
RxGOOSE1 to access the settings that specify the messages to be accepted by the first RxGOOSE element. Messages that
contain the value true in the ndsCom field are never accepted. Messages that contain the value true in the simulation field
(test field in edition 1.0 messages) are accepted only when the UR test mode is Forcible; see the Testing section at the end
of this chapter for details. The settings and functionality for the other RxGOOSE are similar.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GOOSE > RxGOOSE > RxGOOSE Messages >
RxGOOSE1. The following settings are available.
Figure 5-14: IEC 61850 RxGOOSE Messages panel
RxGOOSE1 ID
Range: 0 to 129 VisibleString characters
Default:
If the value entered has one or more characters, the goID field of incoming GOOSE messages must exactly match this
5 value for the message to be accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message. If the entered value is the empty string, RxGOOSE1
does not check the value received in the goID field.
RxGOOSE1 Dst MAC
Range: any 12 digit hexadecimal number
Default: 00-00-00-00-00-00
Set this setting to the MAC address of the publisher. Only received GOOSE messages having a Media Access Control
(MAC) address equal to this value are accepted as valid RxGOOSE1 messages. An entered address of zero disables
RxGOOSE1.
If the publisher is a UR Series 7.3x device, the setting needs to match the value of the publisher’s TxGOOSE Dst MAC
setting.
RxGOOSE1 ETYPE APPID
Range: 0 to 65535 in steps of 1
Default: 0
If the value entered is non-zero, the APPID field of incoming GOOSE messages must exactly match this value for the
message to be accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message. If the value entered is zero, RxGOOSE1 does not check the value
received in the APPID field.
If the publisher is a UR Series 7.3x device, the setting needs to match the value of the publisher’s TxGOOSE ETYPE APPID
setting.
RxGOOSE1 GoCBRef
Range: 0 to 129 alphanumeric, underscore, slash and period characters, beginning with an alpha character
Default:
The gocbRef field of incoming GOOSE messages must match this value for the message to be accepted as a valid
RxGOOSE1 message. If the entered value is the empty string, RxGOOSE1 is disabled. If not the empty string, the entry
needs to be an ACSI ObjectReference to the publishing control block in the format:
<LDName>/LLN0.<GoCBName>
where <LDName> is the function-related name if any of the logical device containing the publishing control block,
otherwise the product-related name of that logical device, and <GoCBName> is the name of the publishing control
block.
The M60 translates the ACSI format required for this setting to the MMS format used in GOOSE messages:
<LDName>/LLN0$GO$<GoCBName>
If the publisher is a UR 7.3x series device, <LDName> is the value of the publisher's Master functional ldName setting if
that setting is not empty, otherwise it is the value of the publisher's IED NAME suffixed with "Master". If the publisher is a
UR 7.3x series device, <GoCBName> is "GoCB" suffixed with the two digit TxGOOSE instance number, for example
"GoCB01".
RxGOOSE1 datSet
Range: 0 to 32 alphanumeric and underscore characters, beginning with an alpha character
Default:
If the entered value has one or more characters, the datSet field of incoming GOOSE messages must exactly match this
value prefixed by <LDName>/LLN0$ for the message to be accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message. <LDName> is as
specified in the RxGOOSE GoCBRef setting above. If the entered value is the empty string, RxGOOSE1 does not check the
value received in the datSet field.
If the publisher is a UR 7.3x series device, set this setting to the value of the publisher's DataSetxx name setting, where xx
is the instance number of the data set selected by the publisher's TxGOOSE datSet setting.
RxGOOSE1 ConfRev
Range: 0 to 4294967295 in steps of 1
Default: 1
If the value entered is non-zero, the confRev field of incoming GOOSE messages must exactly match this value for the
message to be accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message. If the entered value is zero, RxGOOSE1 does not check the value
received in the confRev field. 5
If the publisher is a UR 7.3x series device, set this setting to match the value of the publisher's TxGOOSE ConfRev setting.
RxGOOSE1 Member 1
Range: End of List, BOOLEAN, Dbpos, FLOAT32, INT32, Quality, TimeStamp
Default: End of List
This setting specifies the type that the first member of incoming GOOSE messages must be for the message to be
accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message. There are similar settings for each of the members that the UR is able to
subscribe to in a given GOOSE message. The member before the first member setting set to "End of List" must be the last
member of the message for the message to be accepted as a valid RxGOOSE1 message.
If the publisher is a UR 7.3x series device, set these settings to match the basic type of the members of the publisher's
data set selected by the publisher's TxGOOSE datSet setting.
RxGOOSE inputs
The values received by RxGOOSE elements need to be converted to FlexLogic or FlexAnalog operands so that they can be
used by other UR elements. This conversion is done by RxGOOSE Boolean, RxGOOSE DPS, and RxGOOSE Analog elements.
Each RxGOOSE Boolean can convert the value of a specified Boolean member received by a specified RxGOOSE to a
FlexLogic operand. Each RxGOOSE DPS can convert the value of a specified Dbpos (Double bit position) member to four
FlexLogic operands, one for each of the four possible Dbpos states. Each RxGOOSE Analog can convert the value of a
specified FLOAT32 member to a FlexAnalog operand. Each of these operands reverts to its default state when the
RxGOOSE connectivity is lost. INT32, Quality, and TimeStamp members cannot be converted to operands, and thus
although they can be accepted in GOOSE messages, they have no effect on the UR.
RxGOOSE Boolean, RxGOOSE DPS, and RxGOOSE Analog elements are mapped to various data objects in
<iedName>Master/GGIO3. This is to allow reading of their values via MMS and to allow references to them in SCL files.
GGIO3 has no settings, nor is it visible via UR Setup software. See the UR Communications Guide for more information on
GGIO3.
RxGOOSE Boolean1 ID
5 Range: 0 to 12 characters
Default: RxG Bool1
This setting allows the user to assign descriptive text to the name of the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand. The full
operand name is the value of this setting appended with " On". This descriptive text also appears in the SCL files
associated with the UR.
RxGOOSE Boolean1 RxGOOSE
Range: None, RxGOOSE1, RxGOOSE2, and so on
Default: None
This setting selects the RxGOOSE containing the value that drives the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand. If set to
None, the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand assumes its default state.
RxGOOSE Boolean1 Member
Range: 1 to 64 in steps of 1
Default: 1
This setting selects the GOOSE message member that drives the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand. A setting of 1
selects the first member, 2 selects the second member, and so on. Entering a number greater than the number of
members in the message and entering the number of a member that is not a BOOLEAN results in the RxGOOSE
Boolean1 FlexLogic operand assuming its default state.
RxGOOSE Boolean1 DEFAULT STATE
Range: On, Off, Latest/On, Latest/Off
Default: On
This setting selects the logic state for the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand if the UR has just completed startup and
the selected RxGOOSE has not yet received a message, or the selected RxGOOSE has lost its connectivity with the
publisher. The following choices are available:
– "On" value defaults the input to logic 1
– "Off" value defaults the input to logic 0
– "Latest/On" freezes the input in case of lost connectivity. If the latest state is unknown, such as after UR power-up
but before the first communication, the input defaults to logic 1. When communication resumes, the input
becomes fully operational.
– "Latest/Off" freezes the input in case of lost connectivity. If the latest state is unknown, such as after UR power-up
but before the first communication, the input defaults to logic 0. When communication resumes, the input
becomes fully operational.
RxGOOSE Boolean1 EVENTS
Range: Disabled, Enabled
Default: Disabled
This setting selects whether Off to On transitions of the RxGOOSE Boolean1 FlexLogic operand are recorded by the event
recorder. If set to Enabled, Off to On transitions are recorded. On to Off transitions are not recorded, even if events are
enabled.
RxGOOSE DPS1 ID
Range: 0 to 12 characters
Default: RxG DPS1
This setting allows the user to assign descriptive text to the names of the four RxGOOSE DPS1 FlexLogic operands. The
full operand name is the value of this setting appended with "Intermediate," "On," "Off," or "Bad." This descriptive text
also appears in the SCL files associated with the M60.
RxGOOSE DPS1 RxGOOSE
Range: None, RxGOOSE1, RxGOOSE2, and so on
Default: None
This setting selects the RxGOOSE containing the value that drives the RxGOOSE DPS1 FlexLogic operand. If set to None,
the RxGOOSE DPS1 FlexLogic operand assumes its default state.
RxGOOSE Analog1 ID
Range: 0 to 12 characters
Default: RxG Analog1
This setting allows the user to assign descriptive text to RxGOOSE Analog1. This descriptive text also appears in the SCL
files associated with the M60. Unlike RxGOOSE Booleans and RxGOOSE DPS, the RxGOOSE Analog operands have fixed
names, for example RxGOOSE Analog1.
RxGOOSE Analog1 RxGOOSE
Range: None, RxGOOSE1, RxGOOSE2, and so on
Default: None
This setting selects the RxGOOSE containing the value that drives the RxGOOSE Analog1 FlexAnalog operand. If set to
None, the RxGOOSE Analog1 FlexAnalog operand assumes its default state.
RxGOOSE Analog1 Member
Range: 1 to 64 in steps of 1
Default: 1
This setting selects the GOOSE message member that drives the RxGOOSE Analog1 FlexAnalog operand. A setting of 1
selects the first member, 2 selects the second member, and so on. Entering a number greater than the number of
members in the message and entering the number of a member that is not a FLOAT32 results in the RxGOOSE Analog1
FlexAnalog operand assuming its default state.
RxGOOSE Analog1 DEFAULT
Range: -1000000.000 to 1000000.000 in steps of 0.001
Default: 1000.000
This setting specifies the value of the GOOSE analog input when the selected RxGOOSE has lost its connectivity with the
publisher and the RxGOOSE Analog1 DEFAULT MODE is set to "Default Value." Otherwise this setting has no effect. This
setting is stored as an IEEE 754 / IEC 60559 floating point number. Because of the large range of this setting, not all 5
possible values can be stored. Some values can be rounded to the closest possible floating point number.
RxGOOSE Analog1 DEFAULT MODE
Range: Default Value, Last Known
Default: Default Value
When the selected RxGOOSE has lost its connectivity with the publisher and this setting is "Last Known," the value of the
RxGOOSE Analog1 FlexLogic operand remains at the last received value. When the selected RxGOOSE has lost its
connectivity with the publisher and this setting value is "Default Value," then the RxGOOSE Analog1 FlexLogic operand is
defined by the RxGOOSE Analog1 DEFAULT setting. After restart, until a message is received, the operand value is the
default value.
RxGOOSE Analog1 UNITS
Range: up to 4 characters
Default:
This setting specifies a four-character string that can is used in the actual values display of RxGOOSE Analog1.
RxGOOSE Analogs are floating-point values, with no units. The RxGOOSE UNIT and PU base settings allow the user to
configure RxGOOSE Analog, so that it can be used in a FlexElement.
RxGOOSE Analogs that represent current, voltage, power, frequency, angles, or power factor can be used in a
FlexElement. The following text must be used in the UNITS setting, to represent these types of analogs: A, V, W, var, VA,
Hz, deg, and no text (blank setting) for power factor.
RxGOOSE Analogs can be compared to other RxGOOSE Analogs with any character string or no string.
RxGOOSE Analog1 PU
Range: 0.000 to 1000000000.000 in steps of 0.001
Default: 1.000
This setting specifies the per-unit base value for other M60 features to use with the RxGOOSE Analog1 operand. A
FlexElement for instance subtracts two quantities after converting their values to integers rescaled to a common base,
the common base being the largest of the base values of the two quantities. If one of quantities is RxGOOSE Analog1 and
its per-unit base value is not appropriate, the rescaling operation can result in unnecessary loss of precision or overflow
in the integer result. The FlexElement Base Units table in the Settings > FlexLogic > FlexElements section later, which
tabulates the per-unit base value used by its pickup setting and implies the per-unit base used by other FlexAnalogs, can
be of use in selecting a value for the RxGOOSE Analog1 PU setting.
Some UR elements have requirements for the type of input operands, for instance current type or voltage type. These
elements assume that RxGOOSE Analog operands are of whatever type is necessary to meet these requirements.
The per-unit base setting represents thousands, not single units. For example, a PU base of 1.000 is actually 1000 and a
PU base of 0.001 is 1.
When using RxGOOSE Analogs and PU base in FlexElements, the largest value that can be displayed in the FlexElement
actual values is 2,140,000.000.

Figure 5-18: IEC 61850 buffered report panel
An IEC 61850 Report server is an efficient method for delivery of generic substation event information in a single server to
a single client, such as a supervisory control IED. A Configurable Report is a UR element implementing an IEC 61850 Report
server, either of the buffered or unbuffered kind. The following table lists the number of Configurable Report elements. Each
Configurable Report element can report the values of up to 64 FlexLogic or FlexAnalog operands. Buffered report elements
queue value changes that occur while the client is offline and delivered when the client re-connects. Up to 512 events can
be queued. Unbuffered control blocks purge all value change events when the connection to the client is lost; any events
that occur while the client is not connected are lost.
Table 5-9: Number of report elements
Number
Buffered reports 20
Unbuffered reports 14
Configurable Reports interoperate with any client device of any manufacturer that conforms to the IEC 61850 edition 1.0 or
2.0 report client requirements.
The entities whose values are reported by a Configurable Report are known as members. The members are itemized in an
ordered list known as a data set. Each Configurable Report can use any one of the data sets provided that no more than
four data sets are used for reports. This restriction is to limit the amount of processing power that can be allocated to
reporting.
Each enabled Configurable Report transmits an update to its client whenever a value change is detected in one or more of
its members. Also, the control block can be configured to send integrity reports containing the present value of all
members either on demand from the client or periodically. A TCP handshaking mechanism causes messages that are not
read and acknowledged by the client to be retransmitted.
For a Configurable Report to operate, its members must be selected (that is, its data set configured) and a client must open
a connection to, configure, and enable its report control block. Control blocks and data sets can be pre-configured by
sending the M60 a CID file. See the UR Series Communications Guide for details. EnerVista UR Setup also can be used to
select the data set members and to pre-configure the control blocks.
Each buffered report has the following settings.
Buffered Report1 RptID
Range: 0 to 129 VisibleString characters
Default: empty string
The entered value sets the RptID value in Buffered Report1 messages, and it can be used by the client to discriminate
Buffered Report1 messages from other messages. If the number of characters entered is zero, the value used for RptID
in messages is an ObjectReference to the report's control block, that is, "<LDName>/LLN0$BR$"BRCB01".
Buffered Report1 DatSet
Range: None, DataSet01, DataSet02, …
Default: None
This setting selects the data set whose members' status is reported in Buffered Report1 messages using the UR Setup
software designator for the data set. The IEC 61850 name of the data sets are configured in the Datasets panel, as
described later.
An ObjectReference to the data set, which consists of the concatenation of the string "<LDName>/LLN0$" and the data
set name, is used in the datSet field of report messages, and it can be used by the client to discriminate Buffered Report1
messages from other messages.
Buffered Report1 ConfRev
Range: 0 to 4294967295 in steps of 1
Default: 1
The entered value sets the confRev value in Buffered Report1 messages, and it can be used by clients to discriminate
5
report messages of the expected configuration revision from messages of a different revision. The standard requires
that confRef be incremented each time the members or the order of the members is changed, and each time the data
set name is changed. The standard states that the value of 0 is reserved.
Buffered Report1 OptFlds
Range: The check box for each individual bit can be enabled or not (see figure)
Default: All bits true
The OptFlds setting is bitstring that controls which of the optional fields are included in report messages. The figure
shows the available option bits.
Figure 5-19: Options for buffered report messages
– report-time-stamp
– reason-for-inclusion
– data-set-name
– data-reference
– conf-revision
Notice that OptFlds bits buffer-overflow and entryID are not applicable to unbuffered reports even though the bits exist
in the protocol. They are therefore labelled N/A (not applicable) on the display.
Unbuffered Report1 BufTm
Range: 0 to 4294967295 in steps of 1
Default: 0
The entered value sets the time interval in milliseconds for the buffering of events for inclusion into a single report.
Unbuffered Report1 TrgOps
Range: The check box for an individual bit can be enabled or not
Default: All bits true
The TrgOps setting is bitstring that controls which trigger conditions are monitored in this report. The options are as
follows:
– data-change
– quality-change
– integrity
– general interrogation
Unbuffered Report1 IntgPd
Range: 0 to 4294967295 in steps of 1. 5
Default: 0
The entered value sets the period in milliseconds for generating Unbuffered Report1 integrity reports. An integrity report
includes the values of all members of the referenced data set, whether a change has occurred or not.
DataSets
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > DataSets.
As mentioned in the preceding GOOSE and Reports sections, the members whose values are communicated by these
services are itemized in an ordered list known as a data set. Each UR with the IEC 61850 option has 12 data sets. Each data
set can contain as many as 64 members. Any data set can be used simultaneously by any number of TxGOOSE elements
and/or by any number of Configurable Report elements. UR Setup software can configure any FlexLogic operands and any
FlexAnalog operands as members.
Figure 5-20: IEC 61850 DataSets
UR Setup requires data set members to be IEC 61850 data objects or data attributes with Functional Constraint ST or MX.
Certain FlexLogic and FlexAnalog operands have factory assigned data attributes as tabulated in the UR Series
Communications Guide. All FlexLogic and FlexAnalog operands can be user-assigned to GGIO1 or GGIO4 data attributes,
so that operands without factory assigned data attributes can still have their values published. See the GGIO1 and GGIO4
sections later for details.
Datasets used by TxGOOSE1, TxGOOSE2, and/or by reports also provide a chatter suppression service for their Boolean
members. Oscillation in a value, also known as chatter, can be caused by errors in logic programming, inadequate
hysteresis (deadband) on a threshold, or a failed station component. Chatter can flood a communications network with
GOOSE messages, degrading response time for all users. If chatter is detected in a Boolean member, TxGOOSE suspends
GOOSE event message triggering and report message triggering from that member for as long as the condition exists, and
for a minimum period of one second. While sending is suspended, a self-test message identifying the specific data item
detected as oscillating is activated.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > DataSets > DataSet01 to access the settings for
the first data set. The settings and functionality for the others are similar.
DataSet01 name
Range: 0 to 32 VisibleString characters
Default: DataSet01
The value entered sets the name of the data set, which is required to be unique within the UR for proper operation. An
ObjectReference to the data set consists of a string that is the concatenation of "<LDName>/LLN0$" and the DataSet01
name setting value. An ObjectReference to the data set is published in the datSet field of TxGOOSE messages, and it can
be used by subscribers to discriminate the messages of that TxGOOSE from other GOOSE messages. An ObjectReference
to the data set is optionally published in the DatSet field of Report messages. Valid characters are upper and lowercase
letters, digits, and the underscore (_) character. The first character must be a letter.
5 DataSet01 Member1
Range: End of List or any instantiated 61850 data object or data attribute with Functional Constraint ST or MX
Default: End of List
This setting specifies the first member in TxGOOSE1 messages. There is a similar setting for each of the up to 64
members that the UR allows in a Dataset. Only values of members before the first set to End of List are published.
Deadband settings
A deadband is a range in which no action occurs, expressed as a percentage.
The IEC 61850 panels contain hundreds of deadband settings, such as in the following panels: System Setup > Signal
Sources, FlexLogic, Grouped Elements, Control Elements, and GGIO4. Each panel is not outlined here.
Deadband setting names all end either with "DEADBAND" or .db. As they all work the same way, but each on a different
analog value, a single description applicable to all deadband settings is given here. The analog value that each deadband
setting applies to is usually obvious from the name of the setting. However, a tabulation of the analog values and their
associated deadband setting can be found in the UR Series Communications Guide.
Figure 5-21: Deadband settings with .db suffix
GOOSE, buffered report, and unbuffered report messages are for the most part transmitted only when there is a value
change in one or more of their members. Most analog values continuously dither by an amount that is not significant.
Were a report to be sent each time an insignificant analog value change occurred, then the communications network
floods with GOOSE and report messages, degrading response time for all users.
To control this, a deadband setting is provided for each analog value. Also, in addition to the present actual value of each
analog ("instMag" in the following figure), there is a deadbanded value ("mag" in the figure), which is updated with the
present value only when the difference between the two exceeds the deadband setting (db in the figure). Changes to this
deadbanded value trigger transmissions when included in GOOSE and report data sets.
Figure 5-22: Deadband settings
Deadband settings are entered in UR Setup in units of percent of the difference between the "max." and "min." of the
associated analog value. A zero deadband setting suppresses transmission triggering. The range of deadband settings is
0.000 to 100.000% in steps of 0.001. The default value is 10.000%.
GGIO4 elements have individual settings for "min." and "max." The min. and max. for FlxEIGAPC#.OpSig.db (FLEXELEMENT #
OpSig) are -50 pu and +50 pu respectively. The min. value for all other quantities is 0. The max. values are as follows:
• Phase current — 46 x phase CT primary setting
• Neutral current — 46 x ground CT primary setting 5
• Phase and phase-to-phase voltage — 275 x VT ratio setting
• Power (real, reactive, apparent, 3-phase, and 1-phase) — 46 x phase CT primary setting x 275 x VT ratio setting
• Energy (real or imaginary) — 46 x phase CT primary setting x 275 x VT ratio setting x 1 hour
• Frequency — 90 Hz
• Frequency rate of change — 90 Hz/s
• Power factor — 2
• Angle — 360 degrees
Select the deadband settings from knowledge of the characteristics of the power system quantity measured and
knowledge of the demands of the applications receiving the measurement via GOOSE or report such that changes of
significance to the application are promptly reported, yet the network is not overly burdened with event messages.
Breaker 1
The UR breaker control and status monitoring elements have certain settings that configure how the IEC 61850 protocol

GGIO1
GGIO1 is a UR feature that allows up to 128 UR FlexLogic operands to be user-mapped to IEC 61850 information model
data attributes.
For the value of a FlexLogic operand to be read via MMS, included in TxGOOSE messages, or included in buffered/
unbuffered reports, the value must be assigned to a data attribute. GGIO1 allows those FlexLogic operands that have not
yet been factory-assigned to a data attribute to be user-assigned to a generic data attribute, and thus have their values
included in IEC 61850 communications.
Navigate to Settings > Product Setup > Communications > IEC 61850 > GGIO > GGIO1 to access the settings for GGIO1.
GGIO1 INDICATION 1

ANALOG IN 1 VALUE
Range: any FlexAnalog operand
5 Default: OFF
This setting selects the FlexAnalog operand whose value is mapped into the IEC 61850 data attribute
<LDName>/GGIO4.AnIn01.instMag.f. The value of the FlexAnalog operand is converted automatically to the format and
scaling required by the standard, that is to say primary amperes, primary volts, and so on. See Appendix A for a list of
FlexAnalog operands.
ANALOG IN 1 DB
Range: 0.000 to 100.000% in steps of 0.001
Default: 10.000%
This setting specifies the deadband for the ANALOG IN 1 VALUE. 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 "max." and "min." values. Here, the "max." and "min." are as specified by the settings ANALOG IN 1 MAX and ANALOG IN
1 MIN.
See the Deadband Settings section earlier for a description of deadbanded values.
ANALOG IN 1 MIN
Range: -1000000000.000 to 1000000000.000 in steps of 0.001
Default: 1000.000
This setting specifies the "min." value used in deadband calculations. The scaling of this setting is the same as used by
<LDName>/GGIO4.AnIn01.instMag.f. 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 are rounded to the closest possible
floating point number.
ANALOG IN 1 MAX
Range: -1000000000.000 to 1000000000.000 in steps of 0.001
Default: 0.000
This setting specifies the "max." value used in deadband calculations. The scaling of this setting is the same as used by
<LDName>/GGIO4.AnIn01.instMag.f. 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 are rounded to the closest possible
floating point number.
The M60 contains an embedded web server and can display pages in a web browser. The web pages are organized as a
series of menus that can be accessed starting at the M60 “Main Menu.” Web pages are read-only and are available
showing DNP and IEC 60870-5-104 points lists, Modbus registers, event records, fault reports, and so on. First connect the
M60 and a computer to an Ethernet network, then enter the IP address of the M60 Ethernet port in a web browser.
To close the port, set the port number to 0. The change takes effect when the M60 is restarted.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.

The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) can be used to transfer files from the M60 over a network. The M60 operates as a
TFTP server. TFTP client software is available from various sources, including Microsoft Windows NT. The dir.txt file obtained
from the M60 contains a list and description of all available files, for example event records and oscillography.
While TFTP is supported, the put function is not for security reasons. For example, you can enter a "get" command but not
a "put" command.
TFTP MAIN UDP PORT NUMBER — To close the port, set the port number to 0. The change takes effect when the M60 is
restarted.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.
NOTE
IEC 60870-5-104 is a transmission protocol for network access, specifically for communication between a control station
and substation over a TCP/IP network.
The M60 supports the IEC 60870-5-104 protocol. This protocol is enabled when the SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP 5
COMMUNICATIONS PROTOCOL setting is set to IEC 60870-5-104. The M60 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 M60 maintains two
sets of IEC 60870-5-104 data change buffers, ideally no more than two masters actively communicate with the M60 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 M60 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 M60 when any current values change by 15 A, the IEC CURRENT DEFAULT THRESHOLD
setting is set to 15. Note that these settings are the default values of the deadbands. P_ME_NC_1 (parameter of measured
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 M60, 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.
IEC TCP PORT NUMBER — To close the port, set the port number to 0. The change takes effect when the M60 is restarted.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of

The M60 can specify a maximum of five clients for its IEC 104 connections. These are IP addresses for the controllers to
which the M60 can connect. A maximum of two simultaneous connections are supported at any given time.
The M60 is provided with optional Ethernet Global Data (EGD) communications capability. This feature is
specified as a software option at the time of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for
details.
Ethernet Global Data (EGD) is a suite of protocols used for the real-time transfer of data for display and control purposes.
The relay can be configured to ‘produce’ EGD data exchanges, and other devices can be configured to ‘consume’ EGD data
exchanges. The number of produced exchanges (up to three), the data items in each exchange (up to 50), and the
exchange production rate can be configured.
The relay supports one fast EGD exchange and two slow EGD exchanges. There are 20 data items in the fast-produced
EGD exchange and 50 data items in each slow-produced exchange.
5 EGD cannot be used to transfer data between UR series relays. The relay supports EGD production only. An EGD exchange
is not be transmitted unless the destination address is non-zero, and at least the first data item address is set to a valid
Modbus register address. The default setting value of “0” is considered invalid.
Fast exchanges (50 to 1000 ms) are generally used in control schemes. The M60 has one fast exchange (exchange 1) and
two slow exchanges (exchange 2 and 3).
The settings menu for the fast EGD exchange follows.
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP COMMUNICATIONS EGD PROTOCOL FAST PROD EXCH 1 CONFIGURATION
FAST PROD EXCH 1 EXCH 1 FUNCTION: Range: Disable, Enable
CONFIGURATION Disable
Slow EGD exchanges (500 to 1000 ms) are generally used for the transfer and display of data items. The settings for the
fast and slow exchanges are as follows.
EXCH 1 DESTINATION — This setting specifies the destination IP address of the produced EGD exchange. This is usually
unicast or broadcast.
EXCH 1 DATA RATE — This setting specifies the rate at which this EGD exchange is transmitted. If the setting is 50 ms, the
exchange data is updated and sent once every 50 ms. If the setting is 1000 ms, the exchange data is updated and sent
once per second. EGD exchange 1 has a setting range of 50 to 1000 ms. Exchanges 2 and 3 have a setting range of 500 to
1000 ms.
EXCH 1 DATA ITEM 1 to 20/50 — These settings specify the data items that are part of this EGD exchange. Almost any data
from the M60 memory map can be configured to be included in an EGD exchange. The settings are the starting Modbus
register address for the data item in decimal format. See the Modbus memory map in the UR Series Communications
Guide for details. The Modbus memory map display shows addresses in hexadecimal format. Convert these hex values to
decimal format before entering them as values for these setpoints.
To select a data item to be part of an exchange, it is only necessary to choose the starting Modbus address of the item.
That is, for items occupying more than one Modbus register (for example, 32 bit integers and floating point values), only the
first Modbus address is required. The EGD exchange configured with these settings contains the data items up to the first
setting that contains a Modbus address with no data, or 0. That is, if the first three settings contain valid Modbus addresses 5
and the fourth is 0, the produced EGD exchange contains three data items.
The M60 is provided with optional IEC 60870-5-103 communications capability. This feature is specified
as a software option at the time of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
IEC 60870-5-103 is a companion standard to the IEC 60870-5 suite of standards for transmission protocols. It defines
messages and procedures for interoperability between protection equipment and devices of a control system in a
substation for communicating on a serial line.
The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is enabled when the SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP COMMUNICATIONS PROTOCOL setting
is set to IEC 60870-5-103.
The IEC 60870-5-103 is an unbalanced (master-slave) protocol for coded-bit serial communication, exchanging
information with a control system. In the context of this protocol, the protection equipment is the slave and the control
system is the master. The communication is based on a point-to-point principle. The master must be able to interpret the
IEC 60870-5-103 communication messages.
The UR implementation of IEC 60870-5-103 consists of the following functions:
• Report binary inputs
• Report analog values (measurands)
• Commands
• Time synchronization
The RS485 port supports IEC 60870-5-103.
The UR Series Communications Guide contains more information on the protocol.
IEC103 COMMON ADDRESS OF ASDU — This setting uniquely defines this M60 on the serial line. Select an ID between 0 and
254. This ID does not need to be in sequential order for all stations that communicate with a controller, but it is
recommended. Note that RS485 only allows a maximum of 32 slave stations on a communication line, so the entire range
of 254 addresses is never exhausted.
IEC103 SYNC TIMEOUT — This setting defines the time that the M60 waits for a synchronization message. The M60
synchronizes its clock using all available sources, with the source synching more frequently overwriting the time of the
other sources. Since the synchronization message received from the IEC 60870-5-103 master is less frequent than IRIG-B,
PTP, or SNTP, its time is overwritten by these three sources, if any of them is active. If the synchronization timeout occurs
and none of IRIG-B, PTP, or SNTP is active, the M60 sets the invalid bit in the time stamp of a time-tagged message.
The settings for the remaining menus are outlined as follows.
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP COMMUNICATIONS IEC 60870-5-103 IEC103 INPUTS BINARY
5 IEC103 INPUTS
POINT 0 See below
BINARY
The binary input points are mapped using elements from a list of possible FlexLogic operands. A maximum of 96 binary
inputs (points) can be mapped this way.
The IEC 60870-5-103 point list always starts with point 0 and ends at the first "Off" value. Since the IEC 60870-5-103 point
list must be in a continuous block, any points assigned after the first "Off" point are ignored.
For each defined point, set appropriate values for the Function Type (FUN) and Information Number (INF), which form the
Information Object Identifier field of the ASDU, as defined in IEC 60870-5-103.
The binary input points are sent as Class 1 data. They are sent either as a response to a general interrogation received
from the controller or reported spontaneously. Spontaneous transmission occurs as a response to cyclic Class 2 requests.
If the M60 wants to transmit Class 1 data at that time, it demands access for Class 1 data transmission (ACD=1 in the
control field of the response).

Pt = 0.017 * P
For a max power 100000 KW * 2.4 = 240000 KW, we transmit
Pt = 0.017 * 240000 = 4080
A value above 240 MW is indicated by overflow.
Commands are received as General Command (Type Identification 20). The user can configure the action to perform when
an ASDU command comes.
A list of available mappings is provided on the M60. This includes 64 virtual inputs (see the following table). The ON and OFF
for the same ASDU command can be mapped to different virtual inputs.
Each command is identified by the unique combination made by the function type (FUN) and information number (INF). If
the master sends an ASDU command that does not have the FUN and INF of any configured command, the relay rejects it.

The Modbus user map provides read-only access for up to 256 registers. To obtain a memory map value, enter the address
in the ADDRESS line (converted from hex to decimal format). The corresponding value (if programmed) displays in the VALUE
line. A value of “0” in subsequent register ADDRESS lines automatically returns values for the previous ADDRESS lines
incremented by 1. An address value of “0” in the initial register means “none” and values of “0” display for all registers.
Different ADDRESS values can be entered as required in any of the register positions.
The UR Series Communications Guide outlines the Modbus memory map. The map is also viewable in a web browser; enter

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 synchronizing
time delivered to the relay.
The SYNCHRONIZING SOURCE setting configures the priority sequence of the time synchronization source, to determine
which of the available external time sources to use for time synchronization. A setting of None causes the RTC and the
synchrophasor clock to free-run. A setting of PP/IRIG-B/PTP/SNTP, IRIG-B/PP/PTP/SNTP, or PP/PTP/IRIG-B/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, and 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.
Setup for IRIG-B is illustrated in the Installation chapter.
The clock is updated by all sources active in the device. This means that whenever a time synchronization message is
received through any of the active protocols, the M60 clock updates. However, given that IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 60870-5-
104, Modbus, and DNP are low-accuracy time synchronization methods, avoid their use for synchronization when better
accuracy time protocols, such as IRIG-B, PTP, and SNTP, are active in the system.
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

The M60 is provided with optional Precision Time Protocol capability. This feature is specified as the IEEE
1588 software option at the time of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
The M60 supports the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) specified in IEEE Std 1588 2008 using the Power Profile (PP) specified in
IEEE Std C37.238 2011. This enables the relay to synchronize to the international time standard over an Ethernet network
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
messages, 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).
PTP is a protocol that allows multiple clocks in a network to synchronize with one another. It permits synchronization
accuracies better than 1 ns, but this requires that 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 network, time error can 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 interoperability 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
themselves “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. When a clock on start-up discovers that it is “better” than 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, and due to processing delays in the Ethernet switches. Each clock and switch
5 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. If one of the network devices in the hierarchy does not fully implement PP, the
associated propagation delay and/or latency may not be compensated for, and the time received at the end-device can be
in error by more than 100 µs.
See the preceding Real Time Clock section 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. The PTP menu displays only when the option was
purchased.
STRICT POWER PROFILE — Power profile (IEEE Std C37.238 2011) requires that the relay only select a power profile compliant
clock as a grandmaster, 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 only selects as master the clocks displaying the
IEEE_C37_238 identification codes. It uses a port only when the peer delay mechanism is operational. With the strict power
profile setting disabled, the relay uses clocks without the power profile identification when no power profile clocks are
present, and uses 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 — Set this setting to the domain number of the grandmaster-capable clock(s) to be synchronized to. A
network can support multiple time distribution domains, each distinguished with a unique domain number. More
commonly, there is a single domain using the default domain number zero.
This setting applies to all of the relay’s PTP capable ports.
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 it be
set to 7 in accordance with PTP. Depending on the characteristics of the device to which the relay is linked directly, VLAN
Priority can have no effect.
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 can be left at its default value. Depending on the
characteristics of the device to which the relay is linked directly, VLAN ID can have no effect. This setting applies to all of
the relay’s PTP capable ports.
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, make this setting 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 is later than the time indicated in the message. This
setting can be used to approximately compensate for this delay. However, as the relay is not aware of network switching
that dynamically changes the amount of uncompensated delay, there is no setting that always and completely corrects
for uncompensated delay. A setting can be chosen that reduces the worst-case error to half of the range between
minimum and maximum uncompensated delay, if these values are known.
PORT 1 ... 3 PATH DELAY ASSYMMETRY — 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 make this setting zero.
In unusual cases where the length of the link is different in different directions, set this setting 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 9000 ns and that the delay from the switch to the relay
is 11000 ns, then the mean delay is 10000 ns, and the path delay asymmetry is 11000 - 10000 = +1000 ns. 5
5.3.6.3 SNTP protocol
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP REAL TIME CLOCK SNTP PROTOCOL
SNTP PROTOCOL SNTP FUNCTION: Range: Enabled, Disabled
Disabled
The M60 supports the Simple Network Time Protocol specified in RFC-2030. With SNTP, the M60 can obtain clock time over
an Ethernet network. The M60 acts as an SNTP client to receive time values from an SNTP/NTP server, usually a dedicated
product using a GPS receiver. UR series relays support unicast, broadcast, multicast, and anycast SNTP functionality.
The SNTP FUNCTION setting enables or disables the SNTP feature on the M60.
To use SNTP in unicast mode, set SNTP SERVER IP ADDR to the SNTP/NTP server IP address. Once this address is set and SNTP
FUNCTION is “Enabled,” the M60 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 M60 clock is closely synchronized with the SNTP/
NTP server. It takes up to two minutes for the M60 to signal an SNTP self-test error if the server is offline.
To use SNTP in broadcast mode, set the SNTP SERVER IP ADDR setting to “0.0.0.0” and SNTP FUNCTION to “Enabled.” The M60
then listens to SNTP messages sent to the “all ones” broadcast address for the subnet. The M60 waits up to 18 minutes
(>1024 seconds) without receiving an SNTP broadcast message before signaling an SNTP self-test error.
The SNTP UDP PORT NUMBER is 123 for normal SNTP operation. If SNTP is not required, close the port by setting the port
number to 0, after which the change takes effect when the M60 is restarted.
Do not set more than one protocol to the same TCP/UDP port number, as this results in unreliable operation of
those protocols.

The M60 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 timestamps reported in historical records and communication protocols can be incorrect if
the Local Time settings are not configured properly.
LOCAL TIME OFFSET FROM UTC — 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 synchronized with a
communications protocol providing only local time or it is free-running, the offset setting is used to calculate 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.
DAYLIGHT SAVINGS TIME and DST — 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.

When enabled, this function monitors the pre-fault trigger. The pre-fault data are stored in the memory for prospective
creation of the fault report on the rising edge of the pre-fault trigger. The element waits for the fault trigger as long as the
pre-fault trigger is asserted, but not shorter than 1 second. When the fault trigger occurs, the fault data is stored and the
complete report is created. If the fault trigger does not occur within 1 second after the pre-fault trigger drops out, the
element resets and no record is created.
The user programmable record contains the following information: the user-programmed relay name, detailed firmware
revision (x.xx, for example) and relay model (M60), the date and time of trigger, the name of pre-fault trigger (a specific
FlexLogic operand), the name of fault trigger (a specific FlexLogic operand), the active setting group at pre-fault trigger, the
active setting group at fault trigger, pre-fault values of all programmed analog channels (one cycle before pre-fault trigger), 5
and fault values of all programmed analog channels (at the fault trigger).
Each fault report is stored as a file to a maximum capacity of ten files. An eleventh trigger overwrites the oldest file. The
EnerVista software is required to view all captured data. A FAULT RPT TRIG event is automatically created when the report
is triggered.
The relay includes two user-programmable fault reports to enable capture of two types of trips (for example, trip from
thermal protection with the report configured to include temperatures, and short-circuit trip with the report configured to
include voltages and currents). Both reports feed the same report file queue.
The last record is available as individual data items via communications protocols.
PRE-FAULT 1 TRIGGER — Specifies the FlexLogic operand to capture the pre-fault data. The rising edge of this operand stores
one cycle-old data for subsequent reporting. The element waits for the fault trigger to actually create a record as long as
the operand selected as PRE-FAULT 1 TRIGGER is “On.” If the operand remains “Off” for 1 second, the element resets and no
record is created.
FAULT 1 TRIGGER — Specifies the FlexLogic operand to capture the fault data. The rising edge of this operand stores the
data as fault data and results in a new report. The trigger (not the pre-fault trigger) controls the date and time of the
report.
FAULT REPORT 1 #1 to FAULT REPORT 1 #32 — These settings specify an actual value such as voltage or current magnitude,
true RMS, phase angle, frequency, temperature, and so on, to be stored when the report is created. Up to 32 channels can
be configured. Two reports are configurable to cope with variety of trip conditions and items of interest.

SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP OSCILLOGRAPHY
OSCILLOGRAPHY NUMBER OF RECORDS: Range: 1 to 64 in steps of 1

Oscillography records contain waveforms captured at the sampling rate as well as other relay data at the point of trigger.
Oscillography records are triggered by a programmable FlexLogic operand. Multiple oscillography records can be captured
simultaneously.
When EnerVista UR Setup creates a new settings file, a Smart defaults feature automatically enters a basic oscillography
configuration. The basic configuration changes the factory default values to make the number of samples per cycle 32,
adds a selection of digital and analog channels that are often of interest, and adds a FlexLogic equation to trigger
oscillography. Review and update this basic configuration as required for the application at hand.
The NUMBER OF RECORDS is selectable, but the number of cycles captured in a single record varies considerably based on
other factors, such as sample rate and the number of operational modules. There is a fixed amount of data storage for
oscillography; the more data captured, the less the number of cycles captured per record. See the ACTUAL VALUES
5 RECORDS OSCILLOGRAPHY menu to view the number of cycles captured per record. The following table provides sample
configurations with corresponding cycles/record. The minimum number of oscillographic records is three.

TRIGGER MODE — A new record automatically overwrites an older record when TRIGGER MODE is set to “Automatic
Overwrite.”
TRIGGER POSITION — Set this to a percentage of the total buffer size (for example, 10%, 50%, 75%, and so on). A trigger
position of 25% consists of 25% pre- and 75% post-trigger data.
TRIGGER SOURCE — Always captured in oscillography and can be any FlexLogic parameter (element state, contact input,
virtual output, and so on). The relay sampling rate is 64 samples per cycle.
AC INPUT WAVEFORMS — 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 are cleared.
NOTE
DIGITAL 1(63) CHANNEL — This setting selects the FlexLogic operand state 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 data logger samples and records up to 16 analog parameters at a user-defined sampling rate. This recorded data can
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, so 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. The
following table outlines examples of storage capacities for a system frequency of 60 Hz.

Changing any setting affecting data logger operation clears data in the log.
NOTE
DATA LOGGER MODE — This setting configures the mode in which the data logger operates. When set to “Continuous,” the
data logger actively records any configured channels at the rate as defined by the DATA LOGGER RATE. The data logger is
idle in this mode when no channels are configured. When set to “Trigger,” the data logger records any configured channels
at the instance of the rising edge of the DATA LOGGER TRIGGER source FlexLogic operand. The data logger ignores all
subsequent triggers and continues 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 record can be started. Performing the CLEAR
DATA LOGGER command also stops the current record and resets the 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. This 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 is recorded.
DATA LOGGER CHNL 1(16) — This setting selects the metering actual value that is to be recorded in Channel 1(16) of the data
log. 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
automatically prepares the parameter list. A list of all possible analog metering actual value parameters is shown 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 time-consuming to scan through the list of parameters via the
relay keypad/display—entering this number via the relay keypad causes the corresponding parameter to display.
DATA LOGGER CONFIG — This display presents the total amount of time that the Data Logger can record the channels not
selected to “Off” without overwriting old data.
The 48 amber LEDs on relay panels 2 and 3 can be customized to illuminate when a selected FlexLogic operand is in the
logic 1 state. The trip and alarm LEDs on panel 1 can also be customized in a similar manner. To ensure correct
functionality of all LEDs, an LED test feature is also provided. 5

When enabled, the LED test can be initiated from any digital input or user-programmable condition, such as a user-
programmable 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 the following 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 ends.
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
monitoring 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 does 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 initiated,
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
setting. The control pulses must last at least 250 ms to take effect. The following diagram explains how the test is
executed.

The test is initiated when the user-programmable pushbutton 1 is pressed. Keep the pushbutton pressed for as long as the
LEDs are being visually inspected. When finished, release the pushbutton. The relay then automatically starts stage 2. At
this point, test can be cancelled by pressing the pushbutton.
Application example 2
Assume one needs to check if any LEDs are “burned” as well as exercise one LED at a time to check for other failures. This
is to be performed via user-programmable pushbutton 1.
After applying the settings in application example 1, hold down the pushbutton as long as necessary to test all LEDs. When
finished, release the pushbutton so that the relay then automatically starts stage 2. When stage 2 is completed, stage 3
starts automatically. The test can be cancelled at any time by pressing the pushbutton.
The trip and alarm LEDs are in the first LED column (enhanced faceplate) and on LED panel 1 (standard faceplate). Each
indicator can be programmed to become illuminated when the selected FlexLogic operand is in the logic 1 state.
There are 48 amber LEDs across the relay faceplate LED panels. Each of these indicators can be programmed to illuminate
when the selected FlexLogic operand is in the logic 1 state.
For the standard faceplate, the LEDs are located as follows: 5
• LED Panel 2 — User-programmable LEDs 1 through 24
• LED Panel 3 — User programmable LEDs 25 through 48
For the enhanced faceplate, the LEDs are located as follows:
• LED column 2 — User-programmable LEDs 1 through 12
• LED column 3 — User-programmable LEDs 13 through 24
• LED column 4 — User-programmable LEDs 25 through 36
• LED column 5 — User-programmable LEDs 37 through 48
See the LED Indicators section in chapter 4 for information on the location of these indexed LEDs.
The user-programmable LED settings select the FlexLogic operands that control the LEDs. If the LED 1 TYPE setting is “Self-
Reset” (the default setting), the LED illumination tracks the state of the selected LED operand. If the LED 1 TYPE setting is
“Latched,” the LED, once lit, remains so until reset by the faceplate RESET button, from a remote device via a
communications channel, or from any programmed operand, even if the LED operand state de-asserts.
See the figure in the Setting Groups section of the Control Elements section later in this chapter for an example of group
activation.

All major self-test alarms are reported automatically with their corresponding FlexLogic operands, events, and targets.
Most of the minor alarms can be disabled if so wanted.
When in the Disabled mode, minor alarms do not assert a FlexLogic operand, write to the event recorder, or display target
messages. Moreover, they do not trigger the ANY MINOR ALARM or ANY SELF-TEST messages. When in Enabled mode,
minor alarms continue to function along with other major and minor alarms. See the Relay Self-tests section in chapter 7
for information on major and minor self-test alarms.
There are three standard control pushbuttons, labeled USER 1, USER 2, and USER 3, on the standard and enhanced front
panels. These are user-programmable and can be used for various applications such as performing an LED test, switching
setting groups, and invoking and scrolling though user-programmable displays.
The location of the control pushbuttons are shown in the following figures.

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. Each operand need to be configured appropriately to perform
the required function. Each 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 is recognized
by various features that can 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.

order code for your device, see the order codes in chapter 2 for details.
User-programmable pushbuttons provide an easy and error-free method of entering 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
operands) 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.
The figure shows user-configurable pushbuttons for the enhanced faceplate.

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 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 active,
the ANY PB ON operand is asserted.
Each pushbutton has an associated LED indicator. By default, this indicator displays the present status of the
corresponding 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
PUSHBTN 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
setting 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
settings. 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
control is not executed within a specified time period.
• Self-reset mode — In self-reset mode, a pushbutton remains 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
PUSHBTN 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
TIME setting expires.
The pulse duration of the remote set, remote reset, or local pushbutton must be at least 50 ms to operate the
pushbutton. This allows the user-programmable pushbuttons to properly operate during power cycling events
NOTE
and various system disturbances that can 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 ignores set and reset commands
executed through the front panel pushbuttons. If remote locking is applied, the pushbutton ignores set and reset
commands executed through FlexLogic operands.
5 The locking functions are not applied to the autoreset 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 pushbutton 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 FlexLogic
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. If power supply is lost, the correct state of
the pushbutton is retained upon subsequent power up of the relay.
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. See 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. See 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 requires 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 pushbutton
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 5
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 the PUSHBUTTON 1 ON operand.
PUSHBTN 1 MESSAGE — If pushbutton message is set to “High Priority,” the message programmed in the PUSHBTN 1 ID and
PUSHBTN 1 ON TEXT settings are 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, 10 seconds of keypad
inactivity restores 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
are 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 is 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 displays in conjunction with PUSHBTN 1 ID only if
pushbutton element is in the “Latched” mode. The PUSHBTN 1 OFF TEXT message displays 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 is logged as an event into the event
recorder.

This feature provides a mechanism where any of 256 selected FlexLogic operand states can be used for efficient
monitoring. The feature allows user-customized access to the FlexLogic operand states in the relay. The state bits are
packed so that 16 states are readable in a single Modbus register. The state bits can be configured so that all states of
interest are available in a minimum number of Modbus registers.
The state bits can 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. Sixteen registers accommodate the 256
state bits.
5.3.15.1 Menu
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP USER-DEFINABLE DISPLAYS
USER-DEFINABLE INVOKE AND SCROLL: Range: FlexLogic operand
DISPLAYS Off
This menu provides a mechanism for manually creating up to 16 user-defined information displays in a convenient
viewing sequence in the USER DISPLAY menu (between the TARGETS and ACTUAL VALUES top-level menus). The sub-menus
5 facilitate 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 DISPLAY 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 arrow keys. The
display disappears after the default message time-out period specified by the PRODUCT SETUP DISPLAY PROPERTIES
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 arrow key operate concurrently.
When the default timer expires (set by the DEFAULT MESSAGE TIMEOUT setting), the relay starts to cycle through the user
displays. The next activity of the INVOKE AND SCROLL input stops the cycling at the currently displayed user display, 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 then prompts with ADD TO USER DISPLAY LIST? After selecting “Yes,” a message
indicates 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 can be edited subsequently.
This menu is used to enter user-defined text and user-selected Modbus-registered data fields into the particular user
display. 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 can be entered from the faceplate keypad or the EnerVista 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 can 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
system 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 usage conveniently facilitates this 5
conversion).
Use the MENU key to go to the user displays menu to view the user-defined content. The current user displays 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.
An example of user display setup and result is shown as follows.
USER DISPLAY 1 DISP 1 TOP LINE: Shows user-defined text with first tilde marker
Current X ~ A
DISP 1 BOTTOM LINE: Shows user-defined text with second tilde marker
Current Y ~ A
If the parameters for the top line and the bottom line items have the same units, then the unit is displayed on the bottom
line only. The units are only displayed on both lines if the units specified both the top and bottom line items are different.

5 MESSAGES ALARM CH2
This option is available when an Inter-Relay Communications card is specified at the time of ordering (see
the Order Code tables). With the option, direct inputs/outputs display by default. When you enable the
teleprotection feature, direct I/O is not visible.
Direct inputs and outputs exchange status information (inputs and outputs) between UR-series relays connected directly
via type 7 digital communications cards. The mechanism is very similar to IEC 61850 GOOSE, except that communications
takes place over a non-switchable isolated network and is optimized for speed. On type 7 cards that support two channels,
direct output messages are sent from both channels simultaneously. This effectively sends direct output messages both
ways around a ring configuration. On type 7 cards that support one channel, direct output messages are sent only in one
direction. Messages are resent (forwarded) when it is determined that the message did not originate at the receiver.
Teleprotection inputs/outputs and direct inputs/outputs are mutually exclusive. As such, they cannot be used
simultaneously. Once teleprotection inputs and outputs are enabled, direct inputs and outputs are blocked,
NOTE
and vice versa.
Direct output message timing is similar to GOOSE message timing. Integrity messages (with no state changes) are sent at
least every 1000 ms. Messages with state changes are sent within the main pass scanning the inputs and asserting the
outputs unless the communication channel bandwidth has been exceeded. Two self-tests are performed and signaled by
the following FlexLogic operands:
• DIRECT RING BREAK (direct input/output ring break). This FlexLogic operand indicates that direct output messages sent
from a UR-series relay are not being received back by the relay.
• DIRECT DEVICE 1 OFF to DIRECT DEVICE 16 OFF (direct device offline). These FlexLogic operands indicate that direct output
messages from at least one direct device are not being received.
Direct input and output settings are similar to remote input and output settings. The equivalent of the remote device name
strings for direct inputs and outputs is the DIRECT OUTPUT DEVICE ID setting, which identifies the relay in all direct output
messages. All UR-series IEDs in a ring need to have unique numbers assigned. The IED ID is used to identify the sender of
the direct input and output message.
If the direct input and output scheme is configured to operate in a ring (DIRECT I/O CH1 RING CONFIGURATION or DIRECT I/O
CH2 RING CONFIGURATION is “Yes”), all direct output messages are received back. If not, the direct input/output ring break
self-test is triggered. The self-test error is signaled by the DIRECT RING BREAK FlexLogic operand.
Select the DIRECT I/O DATA RATE to match the data capabilities of the communications channel. All IEDs communicating
over direct inputs and outputs must be set to the same data rate. UR-series IEDs equipped with dual-channel
communications cards apply the same data rate to both channels. Delivery time for direct input and output messages is
approximately 0.2 of a power system cycle at 128 kbps and 0.4 of a power system cycle at 64 kbps, per each "bridge."

NOTE
5 The DIRECT I/O CHANNEL CROSSOVER setting applies to M60s with dual-channel communication cards and allows crossing
over messages from channel 1 to channel 2. This places all UR-series IEDs into one direct input and output network
regardless of the physical media of the two communication channels.

Message delivery time is approximately 0.2 of power system cycle (at 128 kbps) times number of ‘bridges’ between the
origin and destination. Dual-ring configuration effectively reduces the maximum ‘communications distance’ by a factor of
two.
In this configuration the following delivery times are expected (at 128 kbps) if both rings are healthy:
IED 1 to IED 2: 0.2 of power system cycle
IED 1 to IED 3: 0.4 of power system cycle
IED 1 to IED 4: 0.2 of power system cycle
IED 2 to IED 3: 0.2 of power system cycle
IED 2 to IED 4: 0.4 of power system cycle
IED 3 to IED 4: 0.2 of power system cycle
If one ring is broken (say TX2-RX2) the delivery times are as follows:
IED 1 to IED 2: 0.2 of power system cycle
IED 1 to IED 3: 0.4 of power system cycle
IED 1 to IED 4: 0.6 of power system cycle
IED 2 to IED 3: 0.2 of power system cycle
IED 2 to IED 4: 0.4 of power system cycle
IED 3 to IED 4: 0.2 of power system cycle
A coordinating timer for this bus protection scheme could be selected to cover the worst case scenario (0.4 of a power
system cycle). Upon detecting a broken ring, the coordination time is adaptively increased to 0.6 of a power system cycle.
The complete application requires addressing a number of issues, such as failure of both the communications rings, failure
or out-of-service conditions of one of the relays, and so on. Self-monitoring flags of the direct inputs and outputs feature
primarily are used to address these concerns.

The M60 checks integrity of the incoming direct input and output messages using a 32-bit CRC. The CRC alarm function is
available for monitoring the communication medium noise by tracking the rate of messages failing the CRC check. The
monitoring function counts all incoming messages, including messages that failed the CRC check. A separate counter
adds up messages that failed the CRC check. When the failed CRC counter reaches the user-defined level specified by the
CRC ALARM CH1 THRESHOLD setting within the user-defined message count CRC ALARM 1 CH1 COUNT, the DIR IO CH1 CRC ALARM
FlexLogic operand is set.
When the total message counter reaches the user-defined maximum specified by the CRC ALARM CH1 MESSAGE COUNT
setting, both the counters reset and the monitoring process is restarted.
Configure the operand to drive an output contact, user-programmable LED, or selected communication-based output.
Latching and acknowledging conditions—if required—are programmed accordingly.
The CRC alarm function is available on a per-channel basis. The total number of direct input and output messages that
failed the CRC check is available as the ACTUAL VALUES STATUS DIRECT INPUTS CRC FAIL COUNT CH1 actual value.
5 • Message count and length of the monitoring window — To monitor communications integrity, the relay sends 1
message per second (at 64 kbps) or 2 messages per second (128 kbps) even if there is no change in the direct outputs.
For example, setting the CRC ALARM CH1 MESSAGE COUNT to “10000,” corresponds a time window of about 160 minutes
at 64 kbps and 80 minutes at 128 kbps. If the messages are sent faster as a result of direct outputs activity, the
monitoring time interval shortens. Take this into account when determining the CRC ALARM CH1 MESSAGE COUNT
setting. For example, if the requirement is a maximum monitoring time interval of 10 minutes at 64 kbps, then the CRC
ALARM CH1 MESSAGE COUNT is set to 10 × 60 × 1 = 600.
• Correlation of failed CRC and bit error rate (BER) — The CRC check can fail if one or more bits in a packet are
corrupted. Therefore, an exact correlation between the CRC fail rate and the BER is not possible. Under certain
assumptions an approximation can be made as follows. A direct input and output packet containing 20 bytes results
in 160 bits of data being sent and therefore, a transmission of 63 packets is equivalent to 10,000 bits. A BER of 10–4
implies 1 bit error for every 10000 bits sent or received. Assuming the best case of only 1 bit error in a failed packet,
having 1 failed packet for every 63 received is about equal to a BER of 10–4.
The M60 checks integrity of the direct input and output communication ring by counting unreturned messages. In the ring
configuration, all messages originating at a given device should return within a pre-defined period of time. The unreturned
messages alarm function is available for monitoring the integrity of the communication ring by tracking the rate of
unreturned messages. This function counts all the outgoing messages and a separate counter adds the messages have
failed to return. When the unreturned messages counter reaches the user-definable level specified by the UNRET MSGS
ALARM CH1 THRESHOLD setting and within the user-defined message count UNRET MSGS ALARM CH1 COUNT, the DIR IO CH1
UNRET ALM FlexLogic operand is set.
When the total message counter reaches the user-defined maximum specified by the UNRET MSGS ALARM CH1 MESSAGE
COUNT setting, both the counters reset and the monitoring process is restarted.
Configure the operand to drive an output contact, user-programmable LED, or selected communication-based output.
Latching and acknowledging conditions, if required, are programmed accordingly.
The unreturned messages alarm function is available on a per-channel basis and is active only in the ring configuration.
The total number of unreturned input and output messages is available as the ACTUAL VALUES STATUS DIRECT INPUTS
UNRETURNED MSG COUNT CH1 actual value.
5.3.17 Teleprotection
SETTINGS PRODUCT SETUP TELEPROTECTION
TELEPROTECTION TELEPROTECTION Range: Disabled, Enabled
FUNCTION: Disabled
This option is available when an Inter-Relay Communications card is specified at the time of ordering (see
the Order Code tables). With the option, direct inputs/outputs display by default. When you enable the
teleprotection feature, direct I/O is not visible.
Digital teleprotection transfers protection commands between two or three relays in a secure, fast, dependable, and
deterministic way. Possible applications are permissive or blocking pilot schemes and direct transfer trip (DTT).
Teleprotection can be applied over any analog or digital channels and any communications media, such as direct fiber,
copper wires, optical networks, or microwave radio links. A mixture of communication media is possible.
Once teleprotection is enabled and the teleprotection input/outputs are configured, data packets are transmitted
continuously every 1/4 cycle (3/8 cycle if using C37.94 modules) from peer-to-peer. Security of communication channel
data is achieved by using CRC-32 on the data packet.
Teleprotection inputs/outputs and direct inputs/outputs are mutually exclusive. As such, they cannot be used
simultaneously. Once teleprotection inputs and outputs are enabled, direct inputs and outputs are blocked,
NOTE
and vice versa.
NUMBER OF TERMINALS — Specifies whether the teleprotection system operates between two peers or three peers.
NUMBER OF CHANNELS — Specifies how many channels are used. If the NUMBER OF TERMINALS is “3” (three-terminal system),
set the NUMBER OF CHANNELS to “2.” For a two-terminal system, the NUMBER OF CHANNELS can set to “1” or “2” (redundant
channels).
LOCAL RELAY ID NUMBER , TERMINAL 1 RELAY ID NUMBER , and TERMINAL 2 RELAY ID NUMBER — In installations that use
multiplexers or modems, it is desirable to ensure that the data used by the relays protecting a given line is from the correct
relays. The teleprotection function performs this check by reading the message ID sent by transmitting relays and
comparing it to the programmed ID in the receiving relay. This check is also used to block inputs if inadvertently set to
loopback mode or data is being received from a wrong relay by checking the ID on a received channel. If an incorrect ID is
found on a channel during normal operation, the TELEPROT CH1 ID FAIL or TELEPROT CH2 ID FAIL FlexLogic operand is set, driving the
event with the same name and blocking the teleprotection inputs. For commissioning purposes, the result of channel
identification is also shown in the STATUS CHANNEL TESTS VALIDITY OF CHANNEL CONFIGURATION actual value. The
default value of “0” for the LOCAL RELAY ID NUMBER indicates that relay ID is not to be checked. On two- terminals two-
channel systems, the same LOCAL RELAY ID NUMBER is transmitted over both channels; as such, only the TERMINAL 1 ID
NUMBER has to be programmed on the receiving end.

To safeguard against the installation of a relay without any entered settings, the unit does not allow signaling of any
output relay until RELAY SETTINGS is set to "Programmed." This setting is "Not Programmed" by default. The UNIT NOT
PROGRAMMED self-test error message displays until the relay is put into the "Programmed" state.
The RELAY NAME setting allows the user to uniquely identify a relay. This name appears on generated reports.

5.4 Remote resources
5.4.1 Remote resources configuration
When the M60 is ordered with a process card module as a part of HardFiber system, an additional Remote Resources
menu tree is available in the EnerVista software to allow configuration of the HardFiber system.
Figure 5-46: Remote Resources configuration menu
The remote resources settings configure a M60 with a process bus module to work with HardFiber Bricks. Remote
resources configuration is only available through the EnerVista software, and is not available through the M60 front panel.
A Brick provides eight AC measurements, along with contact inputs, DC analog inputs, and contact outputs, to be the
remote interface to field equipment such as circuit breakers and transformers. The M60 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 M60 process card and specific Brick. The relay is then configured to measure
specific 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 M60 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
functionality. 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
distinct 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 the HardFiber Process Bus System
Instruction Manual.

5.5 System setup
5.5.1 AC inputs
PHASE CT F1 Range: 1 A, 5 A
SECONDARY: 1 A
GROUND CT F1 Range: 1 A, 5 A
SECONDARY: 1 A
Because energy parameters are accumulated, record these values and then reset immediately prior to changing CT
characteristics.
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, M} and a = {1, 5}
See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for 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
circuit primary conductors, or a CT in a neutral grounding conductor can 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 can be used. In this
case, the sensitive ground CT primary rating must be entered. See 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 operation,
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
following current banks:
• F1: CT bank with 500:1 ratio
• F5: CT bank with 1000:1 ratio
• M1: CT bank with 800:1 ratio
The following rule applies:
SRC 1 = F1 + F5 + M1 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 is
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 operates on 1000 A primary.
The same rule applies for current sums from CTs with different secondary taps (5 A and 1 A).
Because energy parameters are accumulated, these values should be recorded and then reset immediately prior to
changing VT characteristics.
Two banks of phase/auxiliary VTs can be set, where voltage banks are denoted in the following format (X represents the
module slot position letter):
Xa, where X = {F, M} and a = {5}
See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for additional details.
With VTs installed, the relay can perform voltage measurements as well as power calculations. Enter the PHASE VT F5
CONNECTION made to the system as “Wye” or “Delta.” An open-delta source VT connection is entered as “Delta.”
The nominal PHASE VT F5 SECONDARY voltage setting is the voltage across the relay input terminals when
nominal voltage is applied to the VT primary.
NOTE
For example, on a system with a 13.8 kV nominal primary voltage and with a 14400:120 volt VT in a delta
connection, the secondary voltage is 115; that is, (13800 / 14400) × 120. For a wye connection, the voltage
value entered must be the phase to neutral voltage, which is 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 is 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 can 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.
5
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 and 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 connected 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 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 during
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 always displays zero degrees and all other phase angles are relative to this signal. 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 GE Digital Energy for special variable-
frequency applications.
The frequency tracking feature functions only when the M60 is in the “Programmed” mode. If the M60 is “Not
Programmed,” then metering values are available but can exhibit significant errors.
NOTE
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
represents 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. See the Introduction to AC Sources section at the beginning of this chapter for details.
It is possible to select the sum of all CT combinations. The first channel displayed is the CT to which all others are 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
5 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 are summed together.
This configuration can be used on a two-winding transformer, with one winding connected into a breaker-and-a-half
system. The following figure shows the arrangement of sources used to provide the functions required in this application,
and the CT/VT inputs that are used to provide the data.

5.5.4 Motor
SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR
MOTOR MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS Range: 0.050 to 1.000 pu in steps of 0.001
(FLA): 1.000 pu
These settings reflect the design and configuration of the motor that the relay protects. Some protection elements depend
on these settings for correct operation.
Prior to revision 5.40, RTDs used for motor stator thermal model were defined in this section. With revisions 5.40 and higher,
RTDs are defined in the SETTINGS TRANSDUCER I/O RTD INPUTS menu.
MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS — This setting represents the full load current (FLA) of the motor as a fraction of the CT primary
rating. FLA is a standard motor parameter that can be found on the motor nameplate.
5 MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR — This setting defines the current level at which the motor is considered to be overloaded. If the
motor current exceeds the MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR threshold, the M60 thermal model reacts by accumulating thermal
capacity. Normally, this factor is set slightly above the motor service factor to account for inherent load measuring errors
(CTs and limited relay accuracy). The typical total inaccuracy factor is 8 to 10%; as such, for motors with a thermal
capability at rated service factor of 1 or 1.15, set the MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR to 1.1 or 1.25, respectively.
If the average load current is between full load and the overload factor, the thermal capacity remains constant. If the
average current is less than the full load current, the thermal capacity decays exponentially.
MOTOR NAMEPLATE VOLTAGE — This setting represents the rated phase-to-phase motor voltage. It is used as a reference for
the voltage dependant thermal overload curve feature and indicates a 100% voltage starting condition.
MOTOR OFFLINE — This input must be connected to the appropriate external contact. This setting is selected to a contact
input that is connected to an auxiliary contact of the breaker or contactor used to switch the motor. The motor is declared
to be stopped when the phase current falls below 2% of motor full load current (FLA) and the external contact indicates the
switching device is open.
For example, a circuit breaker 52b auxiliary contact is closed when the breaker is open and open when the breaker is
closed. Therefore the setting is "Cont Ip n On." For a 52a contact, the setting is "Cont Ip n Off."
Four mutually exclusive FlexLogic operands that reflect the motor state are generated by a state machine in the relay to
determine motor status. They are MOTOR OFFLINE, MOTOR STARTING, MOTOR RUNNING, and MOTOR OVERLOAD.
The state machine initially sets the MOTOR OFFLINE operand, as the auxiliary contact reports the switching device is open
and motor current is less than 2% of FLA. If the previous motor status is offline, a phase current greater than 2% of FLA is
detected, and the MOTOR OFFLINE operand de-asserts, then the MOTOR STARTING operand becomes true. After one second, if
motor current is less than FLA times the MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR setting, the MOTOR RUNNING operand is set (this accounts
for the use of a soft-starter mechanism that slowly increases current such that it never exceeds FLA × overload factor
during a starting sequence). For normal starting, the MOTOR STARTING operand remains set until the current falls below FLA
× overload factor, at which time the MOTOR RUNNING operand is set. If current rises above FLA × Service Factor at that point,
the MOTOR OVERLOAD operand is set. If current then falls below FLA × overload factor, the MOTOR OVERLOAD operand is reset
and the MOTOR RUNNING operand is set. A MOTOR OFFLINE state is determined per the logic noted.
When two-speed motor functionality is employed, this setting is used to indicate the breaker or contactor position at speed
1. As such, the speed 1 auxiliary contact is connected to the input specified by this setting for two-speed applications.
EMERGENCY RESTART — As the name implies, this feature i s only used in an emergency, as it defeats the purpose of the
relay—protecting the motor. The input selected by this setting is used to reset the motor thermal capacity used from its
current value to 0% so that a hot motor can be restarted. However, trip conditions that are still present (for example, hot
RTD) still cause a trip. In the event of a real emergency, the EMERGENCY RESTART operand should remain at logic 1 until the
emergency is over. Any EMERGENCY RESTART operand transition is logged as an event.
MOTOR LINE SOURCE — This setting selects the source connected to phase current transformers on the power system side
of the stator winding.
NUMBER OF STARTS TO LEARN — This setting selects number of motor start and stop records to average data presented in
the ACTUAL VALUES RECORDS MOTOR LEARNED DATA menu.
MOTOR LOAD AVERAGE CALC. PERIOD — This setting specifies the period of time over which parameter averages are
calculated. The calculation is a sliding window.
2-SPEED MOTOR PROTECTION — This setting enables/disables the two-speed motor function. This function provides proper
protection for a two-speed motor where there are two different full load values. The two-speed functionality is required for
motors having two windings wound into one stator. One winding, when energized, provides one of the speeds. When the
second winding is energized, the motor takes on the speed determined by the second winding. The M60 algorithm
integrates the heating at each speed into one thermal model using a common thermal capacity used register value for
both speeds. Using the M60 for such applications provides several options, allowing the removal of traditional wiring and
interlocking:
• Use the M60 front panel pushbuttons and provide necessary operate and interlock logic via FlexLogic
• Use external pushbuttons and provide necessary operate and interlock logic using FlexLogic shown as follows
• Use a traditional external control schematic with some connections to the M60 for control and protection
SPEED2 MOTOR SWITCH — If the two-speed motor feature is used, this setting specifies a FlexLogic operand to indicate the
current motor speed. This is typically an indication that the contactor at speed 2 is energized. When the assigned FlexLogic
operand (typically a contact input operand) is asserted, the algorithm switches to speed 2 (high speed). If the assigned
FlexLogic operand is de-asserted, the algorithm switches to speed 1 (low speed). This allows the M60 to determine which
5
settings are to be active at any given time. To maintain correct motor status indication, the M60 expects a transition from
speed 1 to speed 2 within two seconds; otherwise, the motor status value can be reset.
SPEED2 SWITCH 2-1 DELAY — This setting specifies the time delay to transfer from high to low speed. This allows the motor to
slow down before energizing at low speed.
SPEED2 MOTOR SOURCE — This setting selects source for a motor protection when two-speed motor functionality is used.
This can be separate voltage and current banks or one voltage and current bank one with different full load current value
at the second speed (entered in the SPEED2 MOTOR FLA setting). If separate CTs with different ratios or secondary currents
are required for speed 2, then order the relay with two CT banks.
SPEED2 MOTOR FLA — This setting specifies the motor full load current for speed 2.

FUNCTION: Disabled
Range: Disabled, Enabled
A description of the operation of the breaker control and status monitoring features is provided in chapter 4. Information to
program the settings is covered here. These features are provided for two or more breakers; a user can use only those
portions of the design relevant to a single breaker, which must be breaker 1.
The number of breaker control elements depends on the number of CT/VT modules specified with the M60. The following
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 pushbutton operations.
BREAKER 1 NAME — Assign a user-defined name (up to six characters) to the breaker. This name is used in flash messages
related to breaker 1. 5
BREAKER 1 MODE — 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 — Selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay to open breaker 1.
BREAKER 1 BLK OPEN — 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 — Selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate an output relay to close breaker 1.
BREAKER 1 BLK CLOSE — 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 ΦA/3P CLOSED — Selects an operand, usually a contact input connected to a breaker auxiliary position tracking
mechanism. This input is a normally-open 52/a status input to create a logic 1 when the breaker is closed. If the BREAKER 1
MODE setting is selected as “3-Pole,” this setting selects a single input as the operand used to track the breaker open or
closed position. If the mode is selected as “1-Pole,” the input mentioned is used to track phase A and the BREAKER 1 ΦB and
BREAKER 1 ΦC settings select operands to track phases B and C, respectively.
BREAKER 1 ΦA/3P OPND — Selects an operand, usually a contact input, that is 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 ΦB 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 outlined for phase A.
BREAKER 1 ΦB 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 outlined for phase A.
BREAKER 1 ΦC 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 outlined for phase A.
BREAKER 1 ΦC 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 outlined 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 does not declare a pole disagreement. This allows for non-simultaneous operation 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 breaker element has direct hard-coded connections to the IEC 61850 model as shown in the logic diagram. This allows
remote open/close operation of each breaker, using either CSWI or XCBR IEC 61850 logical nodes. IEC 61850 select-before-
operate functionality, local/remote switch functionality, along with blocking of open/close commands are provided. Note
that the dwell time for the IEC 61850 trip and close commands shown is one protection pass only. To maintain the close/
open command for a certain time, do so on the contact outputs using the "Seal-in" setting, in the Trip Output element, or in
FlexLogic.
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
create 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 M60.
SWITCH 1 FUNCTION — This setting enables and disables operation of the disconnect switch element.
SWITCH 1 NAME — Assign a user-defined name (up to six characters) to the disconnect switch. This name is used in flash
messages related to disconnect switch 1.
SWITCH 1 MODE — This setting selects “3-Pole” mode, where disconnect switch poles have a single common auxiliary
switch, or “1-Pole” mode where each disconnect switch pole has its own auxiliary switch.
SWITCH 1 OPEN — This setting selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate a contact output to open
disconnect switch 1.
SWITCH 1 BLK OPEN — This setting selects an operand that prevents opening of the disconnect switch. This setting can be
used for select-before-operate functionality or to block operation from a panel switch or from SCADA.
SWITCH 1 CLOSE — This setting selects an operand that creates a programmable signal to operate a contact output to close
disconnect switch 1.
SWITCH 1 BLK CLOSE — This setting selects an operand that prevents closing of the disconnect switch. This setting can be
used for select-before-operate functionality or to block operation from a panel switch or from SCADA.
SWTCH 1 ΦA/3P CLSD — This setting selects an operand, usually a contact input connected to a disconnect switch auxiliary
position tracking mechanism. This input is 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 is used to
track phase A and the SWITCH 1 ΦB and SWITCH 1 ΦC settings select operands to track phases B and C, respectively.
SWTCH 1 ΦA/3P OPND — This setting selects an operand, usually a contact input, that is 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 ΦB 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 outlined for phase A.
SWITCH 1 ΦB 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 outlined for phase A.
SWITCH 1 ΦC 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 C closed position as outlined for phase A.
SWITCH 1 ΦC 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 outlined 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.
5 SWITCH 1 ALARM DELAY — This setting specifies the delay interval during which a disagreement of status among the three-
pole position tracking operands do not declare a pole disagreement. This allows for non-simultaneous operation of the
poles.
IEC 61850 functionality is permitted when the M60 is in “Programmed” mode and not in local control mode.

The switch element has direct hard-coded connections to the IEC 61850 model as shown in the logic diagram. This allows
remote open/close operation of each switch, using either CSWI or XSWI IEC 61850 logical nodes. IEC 61850 select-before-
operate functionality, local/remote switch functionality, along with blocking open/close commands are provided. Note that
the dwell time for the IEC 61850 trip and close commands shown is one protection pass only. To maintain close/open
command for a certain time, do so either on the contact outputs using the "Seal-in" setting or in FlexLogic.

The relay using a given FlexCurve applies linear approximation for times between the user-entered points. Take
care when setting the two points that are close to the multiple of pickup of 1; that is, 0.98 pu and 1.03 pu. It is
NOTE
recommended to set the two times to a similar value, otherwise the linear approximation can result in
undesired behavior for the operating quantity that is close to 1.00 pu.
Addr: Adds the time specified in this field (in ms) to each
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.
The Multiplier and Adder settings only affect the curve portion of the characteristic and not the MRT and HCT
settings. The HCT settings override the MRT settings for multiples of pickup greater than the HCT ratio.
NOTE
5.5.7.4 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 times pickup with an operating time of 30 ms. At approximately four times pickup, the curve operating
time is equal to the MRT and from then onwards the operating time remains at 200 ms.
842719A1.CDR
With the HCT feature enabled, the operating time reduces to 30 ms for pickup multiples exceeding eight times pickup.

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

5.6 FlexLogic
5.6.1 FlexLogic operands
For flexibility, 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 contact input signals through elements or
combinations of elements to contact outputs, is variable. The user has complete control of all variable logic through
FlexLogic. In general, the system receives analog and digital inputs that it uses to produce analog and digital outputs. The
figure shows major subsystems of a generic UR-series relay involved in this process.

The states of all digital signals used in the M60 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
element 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 wanted, 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 shown in the figure is required, it is implemented via FlexLogic. For example, 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 that 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
auxiliary components and wiring while making more complex schemes possible.
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 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 output.
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
parameters to be used to set a Virtual Output flag. Evaluation of an equation results in either a 1 (=ON, or flag set) or 0
(=OFF, or flag not set). Each equation is evaluated at least four times every power system cycle.
Some types of operands are present in the relay in multiple instances, for example contact and remote inputs. These types
of operands are grouped together (for presentation purposes only) on the faceplate display. The table lists characteristics
of the different types of operands.

FlexLogic provides built-in latches that by definition have a memory action, remaining in the set state after the
set input has been asserted. These built-in latches are reset dominant, meaning that if logical "1" is applied to
NOTE
both set and reset entries simultaneously, then the output of the latch is logical "0." However, they are volatile,
meaning that they reset upon removal of control power.
When making changes to FlexLogic entries in the settings, all FlexLogic equations are re-compiled whenever
any new FlexLogic entry value is entered, and as a result of the re-compile all latches are reset automatically.

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 done, count the inputs
to 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, 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 (that is, Virtual Output 3). The final output must also
be assigned to a virtual output as virtual output 4, which is programmed in the contact output section to operate 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
virtual output 4, shown as follows.

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

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".
5 – 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

7. Now write the complete FlexLogic expression required to implement the logic, making an effort to assemble the
5
equation in an order where Virtual Outputs that are used as inputs to operators are created before needed. In cases
where a lot of processing is required to perform logic, this can be difficult to achieve, but in most cases does 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 following

In this expression, 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. Always test the logic after it is loaded into the relay, in the same way 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 are 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.
There are 512 FlexLogic entries available, numbered from 1 to 512, with default END entry settings. If a "Disabled" element
is selected as a FlexLogic entry, the associated state flag is never set to ‘1’. Press the +/– key when editing FlexLogic

A FlexElement is a universal comparator 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 can be treated as a signed
number or its absolute value can be used.
FlexElements run every half power cycle (every four protection passes).
The element can be programmed to respond either to a signal level or to a rate-of-change (delta) over a pre-defined period 5
of time. The output operand is asserted when the operating signal is higher than a threshold or lower than a threshold, as
per your choice.

FLEXELEMENT 1 +IN — This 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
does not assert its output operands.
FLEXELEMENT 1 –IN — 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 does not
assert its output operands. This input is 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 does 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
element 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
FLEXELEMENT 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
FLEXELEMENT 1 dt UNIT and FLEXELEMENT 1 dt settings specify how the rate of change is derived.
FLEXELEMENT 1 DIRECTION — Enables the relay to respond to either high or low values of the operating signal. The following

FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP — This 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.
FLEXELEMENT 1 HYSTERESIS — This setting controls the element dropout. Notice that both the operating signal and the
pickup threshold can be negative, facilitating applications such as reverse power alarm protection. The FlexElement can be
programmed to work with all analog actual values measured by the relay. The FLEXELEMENT 1 PICKUP setting is entered in

Many motors have a large time margin between acceleration-time and the stall limit. It is advantageous to detect stalling
during a start as early as possible to minimize re-starting delays once the cause of the stall is remedied, for example
neglecting to release a fan brake.
The acceleration time element compares actual starting time with a pre-determined time setting and operates when it is
exceeded. This element has the functionality to adapt the tripping time for starts with lower starting current, and it stores
acceleration time and current of the last five starts. The element uses currents configured under SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR
MOTOR LINE SOURCE and motor status asserted by the thermal model element. Both the signal source and thermal
protection must be configured properly in order for the acceleration time protection to operate.
The following figure shows examples of constant and variable acceleration currents and explains measurement of the
acceleration time and current. Part A represents a constant current start, and part B represents a variable current start.
The element stores the basic statistics for the last five successful starts. The following values are retained, available for
display, and accessible via communications: date and time of starting; acceleration time (in seconds); effective
acceleration current (in multiplies of FLC); and peak acceleration current (in multiplies of FLC). Recorded effective
acceleration current and time can be used to fine-tune the relay settings.

ACCELERATION CURRENT — This setting is only used in the Adaptive mode. It defines a constant current that accelerates the
motor within the normal acceleration time. The setting is used to adapt the tripping action when the current is changing
significantly during the start, such as due to voltage dips.
ACCELERATION TIME — This setting specifies the maximum acceleration time. If the motor is not in the running state when
this time expires, the element operates. This setting can be estimated experimentally by starting a given motor several
times under various load and electrical conditions and measuring the starting time. Also apply a security margin.
ACCELERATION MODE — This setting defines the operating mode of the acceleration time element. When set to “Definite
Time,” the element times duration of the motor start and operates when the starting time exceeds the ACCELERATION TIME
setting. When set to “Adaptive,” the element uses the effective accelerating current to adapt to the starting conditions. The
operating equation assumes that the accelerating power is proportional to the square of the current and neglects any
current unbalance or impact of the rotor slip. Consequently, in the adaptive mode, the element operates when the square
of the current integrated from the beginning of the start up to a given time exceeds

The thermal model is the primary protective function of the relay. It consists of the following five key functions:
• Thermal model curve (overload)
• Overload pickup level
• Unbalance biasing of the motor current while the motor is running
• Motor cooling time constants
• Biasing of the thermal model based on hot/cold information and/or measured stator temperature
The algorithm integrates both stator and rotor heating into a single model. The motor heating level is maintained in the
thermal capacity used register. When the motor has been stopped for a long time, it is at ambient temperature and
thermal capacity used is zero. When the motor is in overload, the output operand is set once the thermal capacity used
reaches 100%.
Once the motor load current exceeds the overload level (FLA x overload factor), it enters an overload phase; that is, the
heat accumulation becomes greater than the heat dissipation. The M60 thermal model reacts by incrementing the thermal
capacity used (TCU) at a rate dependent on the selected thermal curve and overload level. When the thermal capacity
reaches 100%, the MOTOR THERMAL OP operand (typically configured to trip the motor) is set. This operand remains asserted
until TCU decays to the level that permits a new motor start. For details, see the description of the START INHIBIT TCU
MARGIN setting in this section.
THERMAL MODEL CURVE — The thermal model curve determines the thermal limit overload conditions that can damage the
motor. This curve accounts for motor heating in both the stator and rotor during stall, acceleration, and running conditions.
The overload curve can take one of the following six formats: Motor, FlexCurve A, FlexCurve B, FlexCurve C, FlexCurve D, or
IEC. The selected curve can also serve as a base for a voltage dependent overload curve if the VOLTAGE DEPENDENT
FUNCTION setting is “Enabled.” The algorithm uses memory in the form of a register called Thermal Capacity Used. This
register is updated every power cycle using the following equation:
1 ⁄ f (in ms)
TC used ( t ) = TCused (t – 1) + ---------------------------- × 100% Eq. 5-7
time_to_trip
where time_to_trip represents the time coordinate on the time-current overload curve, corresponding to the equivalent
motor current detected within any power cycle period of motor overload. Always set the overload curve slightly lower than
the thermal limits provided by the motor manufacturer. This ensures that the motor is tripped before the thermal limit is
reached.
The “Motor” curve is based on typical motor thermal limit curves and is normally used for standard motor applications (see
the Standard Motor Curves figure and Standard Curve Multipliers table that follow). The pickup level for the “Motor” curve is
calculated as MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR setting (OF) times the MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS setting (FLA). The MOTOR FULL LOAD
AMPS (FLA) setting can be found in the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR menu.
If “IEC” is selected as the thermal model curve, the M60 can apply the IEC 255-8 hot and cold curve characteristics to the
thermal model. The M60 evaluates the thermal capacity at motor start and chooses the appropriate curve. The hot curve
characteristic is applied when the thermal capacity is greater than or equal to 5% (that is, a point above where the motor
is not at complete rest, or cold). Otherwise, the cold curve characteristic is applied.
The IEC255-8 cold curve trip time is defined as follows:

THERMAL MODEL CURVE EFFECT — This setting affects the time-to-trip thermal curves when the THERMAL MODEL CURVE is
selected as “Motor.” This setting takes into account the design of the machine with respect to overload capability as
determined by the overload (service) factor. For motor designs where temperature rise above ambient is based on full load
current, select this setting as “Cutoff.” The time to trip is then calculated using the following equation.

For specialized motor designs where temperature rise above ambient is based on the product of the service factor and full
load current (OF × FLA), select “Shifted” for this setting. The time to trip is then calculated using the following equation.

IEC CURVE k FACTOR — This setting applies only to the IEC motor curve and is applied as described in the THERMAL MODEL
CURVE setting description. See the IEC 255-8 standard for details on its application.
IEC CURVE TIME CONSTANT — This setting specifies the thermal time constant for IEC motor curves in the previous equations
per the IEC 255-8 standard. When the IEC motor curves are selected, the M60 calculates the time to trip using the IEC255-
8 cold curve and IEC255-8 hot curve equations and increases thermal capacity used as defined by the thermal capacity
used equation earlier. If the overload disappears or the motor is tripped (stopped), then the thermal capacity used
decreases as per the following equations to simulate motor cooling, depending on the motor status and the values
programmed for the COOL TIME CONSTANT RUNNING and COOL TIME CONSTANT STOPPED settings.
If the IEC curve is selected, then the following applies:
• For two-speed motor applications, the IEC CURVE k FACTOR and IEC CURVE TIME CONSTANT settings are used at both
speeds
• Voltage dependent overload curves are not applicable
• The motor status is evaluated using motor FLA (Ib) and the IEC CURVE k FACTOR setting
THERMAL MODEL TD MULTIPLIER — This multiplier is used to shift the overload curve on the time axis to create a family of the
different curves. The TD multiplier value is used to select the curve that best matches the thermal characteristics of the
protected motor.
If thermal model curve is selected as “Motor,” then the THERMAL MODEL TD MULTIPLIER can be specified between “1.00” and
“15.00” as indicated in the following Standard Motor Curves diagram.

During the interval of discontinuity, the longer of the two trip times is used to reduce the chance of nuisance tripping
during motor starts.
In some applications, the shape of the motor thermal damage curve substantially deviates from the standard.
Furthermore, the characteristics of the starting (locked rotor and acceleration) and running thermal damage curves may
not correspond smoothly. In these cases, it can be necessary to use a custom curve so the motor can be started
successfully and used to its full potential without compromising protection. For these conditions, it is recommended that
the FlexCurves be used. FlexCurves allows the user to program selected trip times for pre-determined current levels. As
seen in the following figure, if the running (2) and the locked rotor thermal limit curves were smoothed into one standard
overload curve, the motor cannot start at 80% line voltage. A custom curve (1) is required.
For high inertia load applications (when the VOLTAGE DEPENDENT FUNCTION is enabled), the locked rotor thermal limit
section of the programmed motor or the FlexCurve overload curve is modified and becomes dynamically adaptive to
system voltage changes. This function is explained later in this section.

The FlexCurve programming is based on per-unit current values. The equivalent primary amperes and multiplier of full load
current are also indicated above.
UNBALANCE BIAS K FACTOR — Unbalanced phase currents cause rotor heating that is not shown in the motor thermal
damage curve. When the motor is running, the rotor rotates in the direction of the positive sequence current at near
synchronous speed. Negative sequence current, which has a phase rotation that is opposite to the positive sequence
current, and hence opposite to the direction of rotor rotation, generates a rotor voltage that produces a substantial
current in the rotor. This current has a frequency that is approximately twice the line frequency: 100 Hz for a 50 Hz system
or 120 Hz for a 60 Hz system. Skin effect in the rotor bars at this frequency cause a significant increase in rotor resistance
and therefore, a significant increase in rotor heating. This extra heating is not accounted for in the thermal limit curves
supplied by the motor manufacturer as these curves assume positive sequence currents from a perfectly balanced supply
voltage and motor design.
The thermal model can be biased to reflect the additional heating that is caused by negative sequence current when the
motor is running. This biasing is done by creating an equivalent motor heating current rather than simply using average
three phase RMS. This equivalent current is calculated using the following equation.
I_2 2

The following figure shows the motor derating as a function of voltage unbalance as recommended by the National
Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA). Assuming a typical induction motor with an inrush of 6 x FLA and a negative
sequence impedance of 0.167, voltage unbalances of 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5% equals current unbalances of 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30%
respectively. Based on this assumption, the amount of motor derating for different values of k entered for setting
UNBALANCE BIAS K FACTOR is also shown. Note that the curve created when k = 8 is almost identical to the NEMA derating
curve.

HOT/COLD SAFE STALL RATIO — The motor manufacturer sometimes provides thermal limit information for a hot/cold motor.
The M60 algorithm uses this data if this setting is programmed. The value entered for this setting dictates the level at which
thermal capacity used settles for current that is below the motor service factor times FLA. When the motor is running at a
level that is below this limit, thermal capacity used rises or falls to a value based on Iequivalent (average three phase RMS
and the selected setting. Thermal capacity used either rises at the fixed rate of 5% per minute or falls as dictated by the
running cool time constant.

RTD BIAS — This setting enables or disables the RTD bias mechanism. The RTD bias feature is active only if the optional RTD
Input module (module 5C or 5E) has been installed. See the RTD BIAS MINIMUM, RTD BIAS CENTER , and RTD BIAS MAXIMUM
setting descriptions that follow for details on using the RTD bias mechanism.
RTD BIAS MINIMUM / CENTER / MAXIMUM — The relay thermal replica operates as a complete and independent model. The
thermal overload curves however, are based solely on measured current, assuming a normal 40°C ambient and normal
motor cooling. If there is an unusually high ambient temperature, or if motor cooling is blocked, motor temperature
increases. If the motor stator has embedded RTDs, use the RTD bias feature to augment the thermal model calculation of
Thermal Capacity Used.
The RTD bias feature is a two-part curve (RTD Bias Thermal Capacity Used) constructed from three points: minimum, center
and maximum. If the maximum stator RTD temperature is below the RTD BIAS MINIMUM setting (typically 40°C), no biasing
occurs. If the maximum stator RTD temperature is above the RTD BIAS MAXIMUM setting (typically at the stator insulation
rating or slightly higher), then the thermal memory is fully biased and RTD bias thermal capacity used is forced to 100%. At
values in between, the present RTD bias thermal capacity used created by other features of the thermal model is
compared to the RTD bias thermal capacity used. If the value of the RTD bias thermal capacity used is higher, then this
value is used from that point onward. Set the RTD BIAS CENTER setting to the rated running temperature of the motor. The
relay automatically determines the RTD bias thermal capacity used value for the center point using the HOT/COLD SAFE
STALL RATIO setting.

Tempcenter = RTD Bias center setting
Tempmax = RTD Bias maximum setting
TCU at RTD_Bias_Center = thermal capacity used defined by the HOT/COLD SAFE STALL RATIO setting
In simple terms, the RTD bias feature is feedback of measured stator temperature. This feedback acts to correct the
assumed thermal model. Since RTDs have a relatively slow response, RTD biasing is useful for slow motor heating. Other
portions of the thermal model are required during starting and heavy overload conditions when motor heating is relatively
fast.
The RTD bias feature alone cannot create a trip. Even if the RTD bias feature forces the RTD bias thermal capacity used to
100%, the load current must be above the overload pickup setting to set the output.
Do not program RTD BIAS MAXIMUM setpoint greater than 200°C if using a remote RTD unit, since the RRTD only measures
temperatures up to 200°C.

START INHIBIT TCU MARGIN — This setting prevents starting of a motor if there is insufficient thermal capacity available for a
successful start. The motor start inhibit logic algorithm is defined by MOTOR START INHIBIT MARGIN setpoint. If MOTOR START
INHIBIT MARGIN is set to “0”, the MOTOR START INHIBIT FlexLogic operand is asserted only when motor is tripped by thermal
protection (TCU = 100%). After being asserted, the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand resets and a new motor start is permitted
when TCused decays to a level of 15%. The thermal lockout time is calculated as follows.
–T ⁄ τ
TCU end = TCU start × e Eq. 5-20
where
5 TCUstart is the thermal capacity level when the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand is asserted
TCUend is the thermal capacity level when the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand is reset
τ is the COOL TIME CONSTANT STOPPED setpoint
To calculate the thermal lockout time for the case when MOTOR START INHIBIT MARGIN is set to “0,” the following TCU values
are to be applied to the previous equation: TCUstart = 100% and TCUend = 15%.
If the motor is tripped or stopped by a means other than thermal protection (TCU < 100%), the MOTOR START
INHIBIT operand is not asserted and a new start is permitted. There is a potential risk in this situation to trip out
NOTE
the motor by thermal protection during the new start.
If MOTOR START INHIBIT MARGIN is greater than “0,” the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand is asserted either when the motor is
tripped by thermal protection (TCU = 100%) or tripped/stopped for any other reason (TCU < 100%).
Each time the motor is tripped/stopped by a means other than thermal protection (TCU < 100%) the available thermal
capacity (100% – TCU) is evaluated and compared to the TC required for starting the motor. If the available thermal
capacity is not sufficient to perform a new motor start, then the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand is asserted. The thermal
capacity required for starting the motor (TCUonStart) is defined from the following equation:
TCUmargin + 100%
TCUonStart = TCU maxStart × ----------------------------------------- Eq. 5-21
100%
where
TCUmargin is the relay setpoint
TCUmaxStart is the maximum thermal capacity value from the last five successful motor starts
The relay monitors motor starting and captures the TCU for each successful start. The largest value from the last five starts
is used in the start inhibit calculation.
In this case, the MOTOR START INHIBIT operand resets when TCU decays to the level satisfying the following equation.
TCU margin + 100%
TCU ≤ 100% – TCU maxStart × ----------------------------------------- Eq. 5-22
100%
To calculate the thermal lockout time for the case when the MOTOR START INHIBIT MARGIN setting is greater than “0,” the
following TCU values are applied.
TCU start = TC accumulated from the moment the motor was stopped
TCU margin Eq. 5-23
TCU end = 100% – TCU maxStart × 1 + ---------------------
-
100%
If MOTOR START INHIBIT MARGIN is greater than “0,” but the relay does not contain records for five successful starts, then the
MOTOR START INHIBIT operand can be asserted again either when the motor is tripped by thermal protection (TCU = 100%) or
tripped/stopped by any other reason (TCaccumulated < 100%). However, operand reset is evaluated based on 15% level of
thermal capacity. To calculate the thermal lockout time in this case, the following values of TCU are applied to the previous
equation: TCUstart = thermal capacity accumulated from the moment the motor was stopped, and TCUend = 15%.
VOLTAGE DEPENDENT FUNCTION — If the motor is called upon to drive a high inertia load, it is quite possible and acceptable
for the acceleration time to exceed the safe stall time (keeping in mind that a locked rotor condition is different than an
acceleration condition). The voltage dependent overload curve feature is tailored to protect these types of motors. This
curve is composed of the three characteristic of thermal limit curve shapes as determined by the stall or locked rotor
condition, acceleration, and running overload. The following figure presents the typical thermal limit curve for high inertia
application.

Voltage dependent overload functionality is operational only if the selected MOTOR LINE SOURCE in the SYSTEM
MOTOR SETUP menu is assigned to a valid three-phase VT.
NOTE
In this instance, each distinct portion of the thermal limit curve must be known and protection coordinated against the
curve. The relay protecting the motor must be able to distinguish between a locked rotor condition (curve 4) and an
accelerating condition for different levels of the system voltage (curves 2 and 3). Voltage is continually monitored during
motor starting and the acceleration thermal limit portion of the relay overload curve is dynamically adjusted based on
motor voltage variations.
The acceleration thermal limit is a function of motor speed during the start. The dynamically shifted voltage dependent
overload curve inherently accounts for the change in motor speed as a function of motor impedance. The change in
impedance is reflected by motor terminal voltage and line current. This method aids to set dynamically the appropriate
value of the thermal limit time for any given line current at any given terminal voltage.
The VOLTAGE DEPENDENT FUNCTION setpoint enables the voltage dependent feature and modifies the locked rotor portion
of the programmed relay overload curve with respect to the acceleration thermal limits. These thermal limits are typically
available from the machine specifications provided by motor manufacturer.
VOLTAGE DEPENDENT MIN MOTOR VOLTS — This setting defines the minimum allowable line voltage applied to the motor
during the acceleration if the VOLTAGE DEPENDENT FUNCTION is enabled. This voltage is expressed as a percentage of the
SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR NAMEPLATE VOLTAGE setting. If the measured line voltage drops below this setting
during acceleration, the thermal curve is switched to one based on the programmed minimum voltage thermal limit, as
follows.

VD VOLTAGE LOSS — This setting is used to address situations when the voltage input into thermal model has been lost. In
this case, the voltage dependent algorithm readjusts the voltage dependent curve to avoid an inadequate thermal
protection response. The VT fuse failure function typically is used to detect a voltage loss condition. If a voltage loss has
been detected while motor accelerates, the thermal curve is switched to one based on the programmed 100% voltage
thermal limit, as follows.

This figure and the following procedure illustrate the construction of the voltage overload curves.
1. Draw a curve for the running overload thermal limit. The curve is one that has been selected in the relay as a THERMAL
MODEL CURVE.
2. Determine the point of intersection between the THERMAL MODEL CURVE and the vertical line corresponding to the per-
unit current value of VD ACCEL. INTERESECT @ MIN V (see point 2).
3. Determine the locked rotor thermal limit point for the minimum voltage motor start. The coordinates of this point are
the per-unit current value of VD STALL CURRENT @ MIN VOLTS and the time value of VD SAFE STALL TIME @ MIN V (see point
1).
4. The line connecting points 1 and 2 constructs the acceleration curve for the system voltage level defined by the
VOLTAGE DEPENDENT MIN MOTOR VOLTS setting. The acceleration time-current curve for the minimum voltage starting
is calculated from the following equation.
–I ⁄ σ
trip_time = A FACTOR × e

where σ = --------------------
ln ( t 2 ⁄ t 1 )
where
I is a variable multiplier of the motor rated current (values between I1 and I2)
I1 is a multiplier of the rated motor current (FLA) specified by the VD STALL CURRENT @ MIN V setting
t1 is a time value specified by the VD SAFE STALL TIME @ MIN V setting
I2 is a multiplier of the rated motor current (FLA) specified by the VD ACCEL. INTERESECT @ MIN V setting
t2 is a time coordinate of the intersection point between the thermal model curve and the vertical line corresponding
to the per-unit current value of the VD ACCEL. INTERESECT @ MIN V setting
5. Determine the point of intersection between the thermal model curve and the vertical line corresponding to the
multiplier of the rated current value of the VD ACCEL. INTERESECT @ 100% V setting (see point 4). 5
6. Draw the locked rotor thermal limit point for the 100% voltage motor start. The coordinates of this point are the
multiplier of the rated current value (FLA) of the VD STALL CURRENT @ 100% V setting and the time value of the VD SAFE
STALL TIME @ 100% V setting (see point 3).
7. The line connecting points 3 and 4 constructs the acceleration curve for the motor rated system voltage. The
acceleration time-current curve for the rated voltage starting is calculated from the same equations, but the setpoints
associated with the 100% voltage starting are applied.
8. The line connecting points 1, 3, and 5 represent the motor safe stall conditions for any system voltage from the
minimum to 110% of rated. Ideally, all the points on this line are characterized by the same thermal limit (I2t), but the
equivalent starting impedance at reduced voltage is greater than the impedance at full voltage. As such, the higher
terminal voltages tend to reduce I2t. The rate of I2t reduction is dictated by the VD STALL CURRENT and VD SAFE STALL
TIME setpoints for rated and minimum voltage conditions. For voltage conditions above rated, the locked rotor
thermal limit and acceleration curve are extrapolated up to 110% of the terminal voltage. The point coordinates (Is, Ts)
for 110% are extrapolated based on the I1, T1, I3, and T3 values. For starting currents at voltages higher than 110%, the
trip time computed from 110% V thermal limit value will be used.
The voltage dependent curve for current values above 8 times pickup (OF x FLA) are clamped and the time to
trip is frozen at the level calculated for the 8 times pickup current.
NOTE
The following three figures illustrate the resultant overload protection curve for minimum, 100%, and maximum line
voltages. For voltages between these limits, the M60 shifts the acceleration curve linearly and constantly, based on the
measured line voltage during a motor start.

THERMAL MODEL BLOCK — The thermal model can be blocked by any asserted FlexLogic operand. While the blocking signal
is applied, the element remains running and updates the thermal memory, but the states of the MOTOR START INHIBIT and
MOTOR THERMAL OP operands remain unchanged. When the element blocking signal is removed, the element logic is based
on the new value of thermal capacity and updates the status of the MOTOR START INHIBIT and MOTOR THERMAL OP operands.
In the event of a loss of control power to the relay while the motor status is not offline, the thermal capacity remains
unchanged when control power is restored. If the motor status is offline when control power is lost, the thermal capacity
decays for the duration of the loss of control power based on the stopped motor cooling rate.

This element receives current inputs from the source selected by the SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR
LINE SOURCE setting. Generally, this element compares the ratio of motor negative sequence current (I_2) to the positive
sequence current (I_1) times an adjustment factor to compensate for the actual motor load to a set threshold. The
adjustment factor is used to prevent nuisance alarms at light loads. If the motor is operating at an average current level
equal to or greater than the programmed full load current (FLA, as selected by the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR
FULL LOAD AMPS setting) the adjustment factor is one. If the motor is operating at an average current level less than the
programmed full load current (as selected by the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS setting) the
adjustment factor is the ratio of average current to full load current. It is intended that the Amp Unbalance 1 element is
used to generate an alarm and Amp Unbalance 2 element is used to generate a trip.
A declaration of a “single-phasing” condition is made two seconds after the unbalanced current level exceeds 40%, or the
average current is above 25% of FLA and the current in any one phase is less than 2% of FLA.
AMP UNBAL 1(2) PICKUP — This setting selects the level of unbalanced current that generates a stage 1 (intended to alarm)
output. Note that a supply voltage unbalance of 1% creates a current unbalance of 6% in a typical three-phase induction
motor; a supply voltage unbalance of 2% creates a current unbalance of 12%. As a 2% voltage unbalance is common in
most applications, a setting of 0.15 is often used as the alarm level, and AMP UNBAL 1 PICKUP is usually set to this level or
higher.
AMP UNBAL 1(2) PICKUP DELAY — The alarm delay is often set from 5 to 10 seconds. A higher level of unbalance causes
motor stress in a shorter period; a reasonable setting is 3 to 10 seconds.
AMP UNBAL 1(2) RESET DELAY — This timer can be used to maintain the output until other equipment or an operator can
react to the unbalance condition.

A motor load can become constrained (mechanical jam) during startup or when running. The starting current magnitude
alone cannot provide a definitive indication of a mechanical jam. The running current magnitude can. The Mechanical Jam
element is specifically designed to operate for running load jams. Startup load jams are detected by monitoring
acceleration time and speed. The thermal element also operates during mechanical jams but after a delay when the
thermal capacity reaches 100%. Not only is this ineffective due to the delay, but it also implies the maximum waiting time
for cooling before a restart, which can be restrictive.
This element is armed as long as the motor status is not “Starting.” This includes “Running,” “Overload,” and “Offline.” As
soon as any phase current exceeds the user-selectable threshold, the element picks up and operates after the
programmed time delay. The element uses currents configured under SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR LINE SOURCE
and motor status asserted by the thermal model element. Both the signal source and thermal protection must be
configured properly in order for the mechanical jam protection to operate.
MECH JAM OVERCURRENT PICKUP — This setting defines excessive current condition that identifies a mechanical jam. As the
element is not armed during start conditions, this threshold can be set below the starting current. Since the element is
armed during overload conditions, make this setting higher than the maximum overload current. The setting is entered in 5
multiplies of FLA (defined in the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR menu).
MECH JAM PICKUP DELAY — This setting specifies the pickup delay of the element. In the case of large motors that can feed
close-in feeder faults, this setting can coordinate with feeder protection to avoid false tripping due to excessive fault
currents fed by the motor.
MECH JAM RESET DELAY — This setting defines the reset delay of the element. Typical application includes time seal-in of the
tripping command.

The undercurrent function uses the source defined by the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR LINE SOURCE setting. Phase
currents must be configured on this source; otherwise, the undercurrent function is not operational. The element responds
to a per-phase current.
If the undercurrent function is enabled, a trip or alarm is initiated once the IA, IB, or IC current magnitude falls below the
pickup level for a time specified by the delay setting. For example, the undercurrent element can be used to detect loss-of-
load conditions. This can be especially useful for detecting process related problems.
The undercurrent element is active when the motor is running at speed 1, that is, when the motor status is running and
speed 2 is not employed or active.
UNDERCURRENT START BLOCK DLY — This setting specifies the length of time to block the undercurrent function when motor
is starting. If not in the starting state, the motor status is indicated by the MOTOR OFFLINE operand. See the Motor section
under SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR for information on using the MOTOR OFFLINE operand for state determination.
The undercurrent element is active only when the motor is running and is blocked upon the initiation of a motor start for a
period of time specified by this setting. For example, this block delay can be used to allow pumps to build up head before
the undercurrent element trips or alarms. A value of 0 specifies that the feature is not blocked from start. For values other
than 0, the feature is disabled when the motor is stopped and also from the time a start is detected until the time entered
expires.
UNDERCURRENT ALARM PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the alarm stage. Set the alarm pickup
threshold less than the motor load current during normal operations.
UNDERCURRENT ALARM PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the alarm stage. Set the time delay long enough
to overcome any short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
UNDERCURRENT TRIP PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the trip stage. Set the pickup less than the
corresponding setting for the alarm stage.
UNDERCURRENT TRIP PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the trip stage. Set the time delay long enough to
overcome any short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
UNDERCURRENT TRIP RESET DLY — This setting specifies a time delay to reset the trip command. Set this delay to be long
enough to allow breaker or contactor to disconnect the motor.
UNDERCURRENT BLOCK — This setting specifies an operand used to block the undercurrent function. A panel cutoff switch
or other user specified condition is typically used to block the function.

If the speed 2 acceleration time functionality is enabled, the element reads current from the source selected for speed 2 by
the SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR 2-SPEED MOTOR SOURCE setting when the motor is switched from speed 1 to
speed 2.
Acceleration time settings and functionality at speed 2 are identical to those of speed 1 and are described in the
Acceleration Time section earlier. This applies to the SPEED2 ACCELERATION CURRENT, SPEED2 ACCELERATION TIME, and
SPEED2 ACCEL MODE settings.
Two additional settings define the transition between speeds. A two-speed motor is usually started at a low speed (speed
1) and then switched to a higher speed (speed 2) when required. When the motor starts directly at high speed, then the
SPEED2 ACCELERATION TIME setting specifies the maximum acceleration time at speed 2. When the motor is switched from
a low-to-high speed setting, the SPEED2 TIMER FROM SPEED 1-2 setting specifies the acceleration time. When motor is
switched from high speed to low speed, the SPEED2 TRANS 2-1 OP FlexLogic operand is set for time defined by the SPEED2
SWITCH 2-1 DELAY setting to allow inputs for control logic of contactors and breakers at both speeds. FlexLogic operands
required for contactor and breaker control are provided. The acceleration time at speed 2 becomes functional only if the
acceleration time at speed 1 is enabled. When the acceleration time at any speed is not required, it can be permanently
blocked.
SPEED2 ACCEL TIME FROM SPEED 1-2 — This setting is provide to select maximum accelerating time from speed 1 to speed 2

The speed 2 undercurrent function uses the same source as other speed 2 motor functions as defined by the SYSTEM SETUP
MOTOR 2-SPEED MOTOR SOURCE setting. The phase currents must be configured on this source; otherwise, the
function is disabled. The element responds to per-phase currents.
If the speed 2 undercurrent function is enabled, a trip or alarm are initiated once the IA, IB or IC current magnitude falls
below the pickup level for a period of time specified by the delay. For example, undercurrent can be used to detect loss-of-
load conditions. This can be especially useful for detecting process related problems.
This element is active if the motor is running at speed 2. The undercurrent function at speed 2 becomes functional only if
undercurrent at speed 1 is enabled. When the undercurrent function at any speed is not required, it can be permanently
blocked.
SPEED2 U/CURR START BLOCK DLY — This setting specifies a time to block the undercurrent function when motor is starting
directly at speed 2. Prior to starting, the motor state is determined from the MOTOR OFFLINE operand. See the Motor section
under the SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR menu for additional information on the motor offline state
determination. The speed 2 undercurrent element is active only when the motor is running at speed 2 and is blocked upon
the initiation of a motor start for a period of time defined by the SPEED2 U/CURR START BLOCK DLY setting (for example, this
block can be used to allow pumps to build up head before the undercurrent element trips or alarms). A value of 0 specifies
5 that the feature is not blocked from start. For values other than 0, the feature is disabled when the motor is stopped and
also from the time a start is detected until the time entered expires.
SPEED2 U/CURR ALARM PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the alarm stage. Set it less than the motor load
current during normal operations.
SPEED2 U/CURR ALARM PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the alarm stage. Set it long enough to overcome
any short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
SPEED2 U/CURR TRIP PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the trip stage. Set it less than the corresponding
setting for the alarm stage.
SPEED2 U/CURR TRIP PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the trip stage. Set it long enough to overcome any
short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
SPEED2 U/CURR TRIP RESET DLY — This setting specifies a time delay to reset the trip command. Set it long enough to allow
the breaker or contactor to disconnect the motor.
SPEED2 U/CURR BLOCK — This setting specifies an operand used to block the speed 2 undercurrent function. A panel cutoff
switch or other user specified condition typically is used to block the function.

This element has a dual slope characteristic. The main purpose of the percent-slope characteristic is to prevent a
maloperation caused by unbalances between CTs during external faults. CT unbalances arise as a result of the following
factors:
• CT accuracy errors
5 • CT saturation
The characteristic allows for very sensitive settings when fault current is low and less sensitive settings when fault current
is high and CT performance can produce incorrect operate signals.
STATOR DIFF LINE END SOURCE — This setting selects the source connected to CTs in the end of the machine stator winding
closest to the load and farthest from the winding neutral point. Wire both line and neutral-side CTs to measure their
currents in the same direction with respect to the neutral point of the winding.
If the two-speed motor functionality is employed with two separate CTs at each speed, the source that is sum of currents
of two CT banks at line side should be assigned with this setting for proper differential functionality.
STATOR DIFF NEUTRAL END SOURCE — Selects the source connected to CTs in the end of the machine stator winding farthest
from the load and closest to the winding neutral point. Wire both line and neutral-side CTs to measure their currents in the
same direction with respect to the neutral point of the winding.
STATOR DIFF PICKUP — Defines the minimum differential current required for operation. This setting is based on the amount
of differential current that can be seen under normal operating conditions. A setting of 0.1 to 0.3 pu is generally
recommended.
STATOR DIFF SLOPE 1 — This setting is applicable for restraint currents from zero to STATOR DIFF BREAK 1, and it defines the
ratio of differential to restraint current above which the element operates. This slope is set to ensure sensitivity to internal
faults at normal operating current levels. The criteria for setting this slope is to allow for maximum expected CT mismatch
error when operating at the maximum permitted current. This maximum error is generally in the range of 5 to 10% of CT
rating.
STATOR DIFF BREAK 1 — Defines the end of the Slope 1 region and the start of the transition region. Set it just above the
maximum normal operating current level of the machine.
STATOR DIFF SLOPE 2 — This setting is applicable for restraint currents above the STATOR DIFF BREAK 2 setting when the
element is applied to generator stator windings. This slope is set to ensure stability under heavy external fault conditions
that can lead to high differential currents as a result of CT saturation. A setting of 80 to 100% is recommended. The
transition region (as shown on the characteristic plot) is a cubic spline, automatically calculated by the relay to result in a
smooth transition between STATOR DIFF SLOPE 1 and STATOR DIFF SLOPE 2 with no discontinuities.
STATOR DIFF BREAK 2 — This setting defines the end of the transition region and the start of the Slope 2 region. Set it to the
level at which any of the protection CTs are expected to begin to saturate.

DIRECTIONAL POWER
The sensitive directional power element responds to three-phase directional power and is designed for reverse power and
low forward power applications for synchronous machines or interconnections involving co-generation. The relay
measures the three-phase power from either a full set of wye-connected VTs or a full set of delta-connected VTs. In the
latter case, the two-wattmeter method is used. See the UR-series Metering Conventions section in chapter 6 for details
regarding the active and reactive powers used by the sensitive directional power element.
The element has an adjustable characteristic angle and minimum operating power as shown in the Directional Power
Characteristic diagram that follows. The element responds to the following condition:
P cos θ + Q sin θ > SMIN Eq. 5-28
where
P and Q are active and reactive powers as measured per the UR metering convention
θ is a sum of the element characteristic (DIR POWER 1 RCA) and calibration (DIR POWER 1 CALIBRATION) angles
SMIN is the minimum operating power
The operating quantity is displayed in the ACTUAL VALUES METERING SENSITIVE DIRECTIONAL POWER 1(2) actual value.
The element has two independent (as to the pickup and delay settings) stages for alarm and trip, respectively.

DIR POWER 1 RCA — Specifies the relay characteristic angle (RCA) for the sensitive directional power function. Application of
this setting is threefold:
• It allows the element to respond to active or reactive power in any direction (active overpower/underpower, and so on)
• Together with a precise calibration angle, it allows compensation for any CT and VT angular errors to permit more
sensitive settings
• It allows for required direction in situations when the voltage signal is taken from behind a delta-wye connected
power transformer and the phase angle compensation is required
For example, the active overpower characteristic is achieved by setting DIR POWER 1 RCA to “0°,” reactive overpower by
setting DIR POWER 1 RCA to “90°,” active underpower by setting DIR POWER 1 RCA to “180°,” and reactive underpower by
setting DIR POWER 1 RCA to “270°.”
DIR POWER 1 CALIBRATION — This setting allows the relay characteristic angle to change in steps of 0.05°. This is useful
when a small difference in VT and CT angular errors is to be compensated to permit more sensitive settings. This setting
virtually enables calibration of the directional power function in terms of the angular error of applied VTs and CTs. The
element responds to the sum of the DIR POWER 1 RCA and DIR POWER 1 CALIBRATION settings.
DIR POWER 1 STG1 SMIN — This setting specifies the minimum power as defined along the relay characteristic angle (RCA)
for the stage 1 of the element. The positive values imply a shift towards the operate region along the RCA line; the negative
values imply a shift towards the restrain region along the RCA line. See the Directional Power Sample Applications figure
for details. Together with the RCA, this setting enables a wide range of operating characteristics. This setting applies to
three-phase power and is entered in per-unit (pu) values. The base quantity is 3 x VT pu base x CT pu base.
For example, a setting of 2% for a 200 MW machine is 0.02 × 200 MW = 4 MW. If 13.8kV is line voltage and 10 kA is a
primary CT current, the source pu quantity is 239 MVA, and thus, SMIN needs to be set at 4 MW / 239 MVA = 0.0167 pu ≈
0.017 pu. If the reverse power application is considered, RCA = 180° and SMIN = 0.017 pu.
The element drops out if the magnitude of the positive-sequence current becomes virtually zero, that is, it drops below the
cutoff level.
DIR POWER 1 STG1 DELAY — This setting specifies a time delay for stage 1. For reverse power or low forward power
applications for a synchronous machine, stage 1 is typically applied for alarming and stage 2 for tripping.

The underpower function uses the source selected by the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR LINE SOURCE setting. Phase
currents and voltages must be configured on that source, otherwise the underpower function is not functional. The
underpower element responds to total three-phase apparent power measured from the phase current and voltages.
When the underpower element is enabled, a trip or alarm is initiated once the magnitude of three-phase apparent power
falls below the pickup level for a period of time specified by the delay. For example, underpower can be used to detect
loss-of-load conditions. Loss of load conditions do not always cause a significant loss of current. Power is a more accurate
representation of loading and can be used for more sensitive detection of load loss or pump cavitations. This can be
especially useful for detecting process related problems.
UNDERPOWER 1 START BLOCK DELAY — This setting specifies the length of time to block the underpower function when the
motor is starting. If not in the starting state, the motor status is indicated by the MOTOR OFFLINE operand. See the Motor
setup section under the SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR menu for additional information on using the MOTOR
OFFLINE operand for state determination.
The underpower element is active only when the motor is running and is blocked upon the initiation of a motor start for a
period of time specified by this setting. For example, this block can be used to allow pumps to build up head before the
underpower element trips or alarms. A value of 0 specifies that the feature is not blocked from start. For values other than
0, the feature is disabled when the motor is stopped and also from the time a start is detected until the time entered
expires.
UNDERPOWER 1 ALARM PWR PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the alarm stage. The base per-unit power 5
quantity is 3 × VT pu base × CT pu base per source selected as a motor line source. Set it less than the motor load current
during normal operations.
UNDERPOWER 1 ALARM PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the alarm stage. Set it long enough to overcome
any short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
UNDERPOWER 1 TRIP PWR PICKUP — This setting specifies a pickup threshold for the trip stage. The base quantity is 3-phase
power on primary side, which is calculated as √3 x Phase CT Primary x Phase VT Ratio x Phase VT Secondary in case of
delta connected VTs, and as 3 x Phase CT Primary x Phase VT Ratio x Phase VT Secondary in case of wye connected VTs.
Set this setting less than the corresponding setting for the alarm stage.
UNDERPOWER 1 TRIP PICKUP DLY — This setting specifies a time delay for the trip stage. Set it long enough to overcome any
short lowering of the current (for example, during system faults).
UNDERPOWER 1 TRIP RESET DLY — This setting specifies a time delay to reset the trip command. Set it long enough to allow
breaker or contactor to disconnect the motor.
UNDERPOWER 1 BLOCK — This setting specifies an operand used to block the underpower function. A panel cutoff switch or
other user specified condition typically is used to block the function.
PHASE
DIRECTIONAL 2
The M60 has up to eight phase instantaneous overcurrent elements (dependent on CT/VT modules ordered) and two phase
directional overcurrent elements.
The phase instantaneous overcurrent element can be used as an instantaneous element with no intentional delay or as a
definite time element. The input current is the fundamental phasor magnitude. For timing curves, see the publication
Instantaneous Overcurrent (IOC) Element Response to Saturated Waveforms in UR Series Relays (GET-8400A).
FUNCTION — This setting enables and disables the phase instantaneous overcurrent protection element.
SOURCE — Selects the signal source for the phase instantaneous overcurrent protection element.
PICKUP — Specifies the phase instantaneous overcurrent pickup level in per-unit values.
DELAY —Delays the assertion of the PHASE IOC OP operands. It is used to achieve timing coordination with other elements
and relays.
RESET DELAY — Specifies a delay for the reset of the phase instantaneous overcurrent element between the operate output
state and the return to logic 0 after the input passes outside the defined pickup range. This setting is used to ensure that
the relay output contacts are closed long enough to ensure reception by downstream equipment.
BLOCK A — Assertion of the operand assigned to this setting block’s phase A of the phase instantaneous overcurrent

element.
EVENTS — Enables and disables the logging of phase instantaneous overcurrent events in the sequence of events recorder.
The phase directional elements (one for each of phases A, B, and C) determine the phase current flow direction for steady
state and fault conditions and can be used to control the operation of the phase overcurrent elements via the BLOCK inputs
of these elements.

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 table shows the operating and polarizing signals used for phase directional control.
Mode of operation
• When the function is “Disabled” or the operating current is below 5% × CT nominal, the element output is logic “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 blocks the operation of any phase
overcurrent element under directional control when voltage memory expires
– 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 is permitted to resume when the polarizing voltage becomes greater than the polarizing
voltage threshold.

Settings
PHASE DIR 1 FUNCTION — This setting enables and disables the phase directional overcurrent protection element.
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 polarizing
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 BLOCK — Assertion of the operand assigned to this setting blocks operation of the phase directional
overcurrent element.
PHASE DIR 1 ECA — This setting specifies the element characteristic angle, that is, the angle by which the polarizing 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. Program the phase directional overcurrent element using
this 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.
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.
PHASE DIR 1 EVENTS — This setting enables and disables the logging of phase directional overcurrent events in the
sequence of events recorder.
The phase directional element responds to the forward load current. In the case of a following reverse fault, the
element needs some time—in the order of 8 ms—to establish a blocking signal. Some protection elements, such
NOTE
as instantaneous overcurrent, 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
supervision of the phase directional element. If current reversal is of concern, a longer delay—in the order of 20
ms—is needed.

The M60 has up to eight neutral instantaneous overcurrent elements (dependent on CT/VT modules ordered) and two
neutral directional overcurrent elements.
The neutral instantaneous overcurrent element can be used as an instantaneous function with no intentional delay or as a
definite time function. The element essentially responds to the magnitude of a neutral current fundamental frequency 5
phasor 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. 5-29
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 for the NEUTRAL DIR
OC1 FWD and NEUTRAL DIR OC1 REV operands, respectively. The output operand is asserted if the magnitude of the operating
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 either the neutral current
calculated 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
performance: 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. 5-30
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 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 5
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 can
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 CURRENT
CUT-OFF LEVEL setting value and IG must be greater than 0.05 pu to be validated as the operating quantity for directional
current. The following tables define the neutral directional overcurrent element. V_0 is the zero-sequence voltage, I_0 is
the zero-sequence current, ECA is the element characteristic angle, and IG is the ground current.

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 polarizing 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 validated 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, ensure that a reversal of the ground current does not occur for a high-side fault. Assume that the
low-side system impedance is minimal when checking for this condition. A similar situation arises for a wye/delta/wye
transformer, where current in one transformer winding neutral can reverse when faults on both sides of the
transformer are considered.
• If “Dual” polarizing is selected, the element performs both directional comparisons as described. 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.
• If "Dual-V" polarizing is selected, "Voltage" polarizing is performed and "Current" polarizing is ignored if the voltage
polarizing signal is valid; otherwise "Current" polarizing is performed if the current polarizing signal is valid. If neither of
them is valid, neither forward nor reverse indication is given. 5
• If "Dual-I" polarizing is selected, "Current" polarizing is performed and "Voltage" polarizing is ignored if the current
polarizing signal is valid; otherwise "Voltage" polarizing is performed if the voltage polarizing signal is valid. If neither of
them is valid, neither forward nor reverse indication is given.
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 is used by this protection. This setting acts as a switch between the neutral and ground modes of operation
(ANSI devices 67N and 67G). If set to “Calculated 3I0,” the element uses the phase currents and applies the positive-
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 simultaneously. 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 it to 0.063
for backward compatibility with firmware revision 3.40 and older. Set it to zero to remove the restraint. Set it 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 application 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 is not to be larger than the zero-sequence impedance of the protected
circuit. Practically, it shall be several times smaller. Enter the offset impedance 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.
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, keep 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, keep in mind that the design uses a positive-sequence restraint technique for the
“Calculated 3I0” mode of operation.

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.
5
Time overcurrent time calculations are made with an internal energy capacity memory variable. When this variable
indicates that the energy capacity has reached 100%, a time overcurrent element operates. If less than 100% energy
capacity 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
“Instantaneous” 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 coordinate with electromechanical relays.
IEEE curves
The IEEE time overcurrent curve shapes conform to industry standards and the IEEE C37.112-1996 curve classifications for
extremely, very, and moderately inverse curves. The IEEE curves are derived from the operate and reset time equations.

Recloser curves
The M60 uses the FlexCurve feature to facilitate programming of 41 recloser curves. See the FlexCurves settings section
earlier in this chapter for details.
This element can provide a required time-delay operating characteristic versus the applied current or be used as a simple
definite time element. The ground current input value is the quantity measured by the ground input CT and is the
fundamental phasor or RMS magnitude. Two methods of resetting operation are available: “Timed” and “Instantaneous”
(see the Inverse TOC Curve Characteristics section for details). When the element is blocked, the time accumulator resets
according to the reset characteristic. For example, if the element reset characteristic is set to “Instantaneous” and the
element is blocked, the time accumulator clears immediately.
GROUND TOC1 FUNCTION — This setting enables and disables the ground time overcurrent protection element.
GROUND TOC1 SIGNAL SOURCE — This setting selects the signal source for the ground time overcurrent protection element.
GROUND TOC1 INPUT — This setting selects how ground current input quantities are interpreted by the M60. Inputs can be
selected as fundamental phasor magnitudes or total waveform RMS magnitudes as required by the application.
GROUND TOC1 PICKUP — This setting specifies the ground time overcurrent pickup level in per-unit values.
GROUND TOC1 CURVE — This setting selects the inverse time overcurrent curve style.
GROUND TOC1 TD MULTIPLIER — This setting specifies a multiple of the base curve shape specified by the CURVE setting.
Programming this value to zero results in an instantaneous response to all current levels above pickup.
GROUND TOC1 RESET — The “Instantaneous” reset method 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” reset
method can be used where the relay must coordinate with electromechanical relays.
GROUND TOC1 BLOCK — Assertion of the operand assigned to this setting blocks operation of the ground time overcurrent
element.
GROUND TOC1 EVENTS — This setting enables and disables the logging of ground time overcurrent events in the sequence
of events recorder.
These elements measure the current that is connected to the ground channel of a CT/VT module. The
conversion range of a standard channel is from 0.02 to 46 times the CT rating.
NOTE
This channel can be also equipped with a sensitive input. The conversion range of a sensitive channel is from
0.002 to 4.6 times the CT rating.
NOTE
The ground instantaneous overcurrent element can be used as an instantaneous element with no intentional delay or as a
definite time element. The ground current input is the quantity measured by the ground input CT and is the fundamental
phasor magnitude.
These elements measure the current that is connected to the ground channel of a CT/VT module. The

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 causes
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
single-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 is 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
5 element not being initiated for a breaker that has very little or no current flowing through it, which can be the case for
transformer 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, do not use a current supervised initiate. Utilize this feature for
those situations where coordinating margins can 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.
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
overcurrent 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
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)

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 is initiated if current flowing through the breaker is above the supervision
pickup level.
BF1 USE SEAL-IN — If set to "Yes," the element is sealed-in if current flowing through the breaker is above the supervision
pickup level.
BF1 3-POLE INITIATE — This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that initiates 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 detects 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 guarantee correct
operation.
BF1 N AMP SUPV PICKUP — This setting is used to set the neutral current initiate and seal-in supervision level. Generally this
setting detects 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 equipment. In
microprocessor relays this time is not significant. In M60 relays, which use a Fourier transform, the calculated current
magnitude ramps-down to zero one power frequency cycle after the current is interrupted, and this lag needs to be
5 included in the overall margin duration, as it occurs after current interruption. The Breaker Failure Main Path Sequence
figure that follows 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 φA/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 protected breaker
early-type auxiliary switch contact on pole A. This is normally a non-multiplied form-A contact. The contact can even be
adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time.
BF1 BKR POS2 φA/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 can 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 is to 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 is to 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 is to 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 is to 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.
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 element 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 initiate 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 φB / BF1 BKR POS 1 φC — 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 can even be adjusted to have the shortest possible operating time. This setting is valid only for single-pole
breaker failure schemes.
BF1 BKR POS2 φB — Selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type auxiliary switch
contact on pole B (52/a). This can be a multiplied contact. This setting is valid only for single-pole breaker failure schemes.
BF1 BKR POS2 φC — This setting selects the FlexLogic operand that represents the protected breaker normal-type auxiliary
switch contact on pole C (52/a). This can 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 needs to be
given via output operand BKR FAIL 1 TRIP OP.

At 0% of pickup, the operating time equals the PHASE UNDERVOLTAGE DELAY setting.
This element is used to give a 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” allows a dead source to be considered a fault condition).

FUNCTION: Disabled
There are three neutral overvoltage elements available. The neutral overvoltage element can be used to detect
asymmetrical system voltage condition due to a ground fault or to the loss of one or two phases of the source. The
element responds to the system neutral voltage (3V_0), calculated from the phase voltages. The nominal secondary
voltage of the phase voltage channels entered under SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP AC INPUTS VOLTAGE BANK PHASE
VT SECONDARY is the p.u. base used when setting the pickup level.
The neutral overvoltage element can provide a time-delayed operating characteristic versus the applied voltage (initialized
from FlexCurves A, B, or C) or be used as a definite time element. The NEUTRAL OV1 PICKUP DELAY setting applies only if the
NEUTRAL OV1 CURVE setting is “Definite time.” The source assigned to this element must be configured for a phase VT.
VT errors and normal voltage unbalance must be considered when setting this element. This function requires the VTs to
be wye-connected.

The M60 contains one auxiliary undervoltage element for each VT bank. This element monitors undervoltage conditions of

AUXILIARY VT X5 SECONDARY is the per-unit base used when setting the pickup level.
The AUX UV1 DELAY setting selects the minimum operating time of the auxiliary undervoltage element.
Both AUX UV1 PICKUP and AUX UV1 DELAY settings establish the operating curve of the undervoltage element. The auxiliary
undervoltage element can be programmed to use either definite time delay or inverse time delay characteristics. The
operating characteristics and equations for both definite and inverse time delay are as for the phase undervoltage
element.
The element resets instantaneously. The minimum voltage setting selects the operating voltage below which the element
is blocked.

The M60 contains one auxiliary overvoltage element for each VT bank. This element is intended for monitoring overvoltage
conditions of the auxiliary voltage. The nominal secondary voltage of the auxiliary voltage channel entered under SYSTEM
SETUP AC INPUTS VOLTAGE BANK X5 AUXILIARY VT X5 SECONDARY is the per-unit (pu) base used when setting the
pickup level.
A typical application for this element is monitoring the zero-sequence voltage (3V_0) supplied from an open-corner-delta
VT connection.
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 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 can be assigned directly from the trip bus menu.

The setting groups menu controls the activation and deactivation of up to six possible groups of settings in the GROUPED
ELEMENTS settings menu. The active setting group can be indicated on the front display of the UR by configuring User-
Programmable LEDs to display the state of the SETTING GROUP ACT FlexLogic operands.
SETTING GROUPS FUNCTION — When Enabled, allows setting groups other than group 1 (the default active group) to be
activated. The default setting group is forced active while the SETTING GROUPS FUNCTION setting is Disabled.
SETTING GROUPS BLK — Prevents the active setting group from changing when the selected FlexLogic operand is "On." This
can be useful in applications where it is undesirable to change the settings under certain conditions, such as during a
control sequence.
GROUP 2 ACTIVATE ON to GROUP 6 ACTIVATE ON — Selects a FlexLogic operand which, when set, makes the particular 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.
SETTING GROUP 1 NAME to SETTING GROUP 6 NAME — 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
settings 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 particular
settings group, and requests from several overcurrent pickup measuring elements to inhibit the use of the particular
settings group. The assigned VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 operand is used to control the “On” state of a particular settings group.

A setting group selection can also be made by the IEC 61850 MMS service SelectActiveSG to the control block @Master/
LLN0.SGCB. The priority scheme mentioned makes active the highest numbered group selected by SelectActiveSG or the
GROUP ACTIVATE ON settings. The SelectActiveSG selection has a default value of 1, so until a higher SelectActiveSG
selection is received, the GROUP ACTIVATE ON settings control the active group.
The most recent SelectActiveSG selection is preserved while the UR is powered down or reset.
If it becomes necessary to cancel the SelectActiveSG selection without using a SelectActiveSG service request, change the
SETTING GROUPS FUNCTION setting to Disabled. This resets the SelectActiveSG selection to 1.
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
setting the selector to the position defined by a three-bit word. 5
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 setting). Basic alarm functionality alerts the user under abnormal conditions; for example, the three-bit control input
being out of range.
A selector switch runs every two power cycles.
SELECTOR 1 FULL RANGE — This setting defines the upper position of the selector. When stepping up through available
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 three 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 does not take place and an alarm is 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
changes 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
changes 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 three 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 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 control 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-
5 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 position 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 three 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,” the 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 attempts 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 is to 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 is to be applied automatically after five seconds of inactivity of
the control inputs. When the relay powers up, it is to synchronize the setting group to the three-bit control input.
Make the following changes to setting group control in the SETTINGS CONTROL ELEMENTS SETTING GROUPS menu:

SETTINGS CONTROL ELEMENTS START SUPERVISION
START SUPERVISION MAXIMUM STARTING See below
RATE (STARTS/HR)
The motor start supervision feature consists of three elements that guard against excessive starting duty. These elements
are in addition to the start inhibit that can be imposed by the thermal model. A method to prevent starting is by wiring an
M60 output contact actuated by motor start supervision elements in the motor energizing control circuit. The output
contact changes state only when the motor is stopped to accommodate control circuits that must be continuously
energized, such as a contactor.
The three elements of motor start supervision are
• Maximum starting rate (starts per hour) — This element defines the number of start attempts allowed in a
programmable time interval. Only the number of restart attempts during the interval is controlled and not the time
between. The latter is controlled by the time between starts element. When the motor is stopped after the last allowed
start, the energizing or closing control circuit is disabled until the end of the defined interval. Every start initiates a new
interval in which the start number is limited. A typical starting frequency is three starts per hour.
5 • Time between starts — This function enforces a programmable minimum time duration between two successive start
attempts. A time delay is initiated with every start, and if the motor is stopped a restart is not allowed until the
specified interval has lapsed.
• Restart delay — The restart delay function defines a programmable delay after a motor has stopped before it can be
started again. It allows load interruption transient conditions, such as down-hole pump applications where
gravitational force causes reverse rotation to subside. Starting when the load is reversing can cause damage to the
motor or pump.
The element can be programmed to perform the classical monitoring function of Starts Per Hour. However, time interval
units specified by the START/HR TIME INTERVAL setting are in minutes for increased flexibility. The STARTS/HR MAX NUMBER OF
STARTS setting specifies the start attempt number limit during the interval. The time unit and ranges accommodate the
starting requirements of large direct-on-line motors.
The element asserts the following three FlexLogic operands:
• The STARTS-PER-HOUR PKP operand indicates that the maximum permitted starting rate has been reached. When
stopped, the motor is not restarted until the lockout time elapses.
• The STARTS-PER-HOUR OP operand indicates that the motor stopped when the maximum permitted starting rate was
already reached. Use this operand to inhibit the start command.
• The STARTS-PER-HOUR DPO operand indicates that the maximum permitted starting rate has not been reached. When
stopped, the motor can be restarted immediately.
The element uses motor status asserted by the Thermal Model element. The thermal protection must be configured
properly in order for this function to operate.

The time between starts element prevents restart attempts in quick succession. It requires that the minimum duration
specified by the TIME BETWEEN STARTS MIN TIME setting expires before a subsequent start attempt is allowed. The time
between starts supervising element complements the maximum starting rate element in that the former controls the time
spacing between starts and the latter limits the number of starts.
The element asserts the following three FlexLogic operands:
• The TIME-BTWN-STARTS PKP operand indicates that the time since the last start was too short. When stopped, the motor
should not be restarted until the lockout time elapses.
• The TIME-BTWN-STARTS OP operand indicates that the motor stopped when the time since the last start was too short.
Use this operand to inhibit the start command.
• The TIME-BTWN-STARTS DPO operand indicates that the time between the last two starts was long enough. When
stopped, the motor can be restarted immediately.
The element uses motor status asserted by the Thermal Model element. The thermal protection must be configured
properly in order for this function to operate.

The M60 can control the transition of a motor start from reduced to full voltage. This feature uses motor load and a
supervisory timer to initiate a one second control signal (the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand) that can be used to switch to full
voltage. The feature can also assert a trip signal (the REDUCED VOLT OP operand) from the starting logic if the current or
timer transitions do not occur as expected. This transition can be defined as current only, current or timer, or current and
timer.

All FlexLogic operands are asserted upon the initiation of a motor start. The REDUCED VOLT OP operand is set

status is starting. The REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand is set when the transition timer expires and the motor load
has dropped below the motor full load current setting; that is, the motor status is not starting.
REDUCED VOLTAGE STARTING — This setting enables and disables the reduced voltage starting feature.
TRANSITION MODE — This setting selects the reduced voltage starting transition method. The reduced voltage timer is
initiated at the beginning of a motor start; that is, when the motor status transitions from offline to starting. There are three
modes of transition:
• “Current Only” — When the motor load falls below the REDUCED VOLTAGE FLA setting prior to the expiration of the
reduced voltage timer, a transition is initiated by asserting the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand for a period of one second.
Any contact output assigned to this operand operates for this period of time. If the reduced voltage timer expires prior
to the motor load dropping below the REDUCED VOLTAGE FLA setting, the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand does not change
state and the REDUCED VOLT OP operand is asserted.
• “Current Or Timer” — When the motor load falls below the REDUCED VOLTAGE FLA setting, or if the reduced voltage
timer expires, a transition is initiated by asserting the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand for one second. Any contact output
assigned to this control signal operates for this period of time.
• “Current And Timer” — A transition is initiated by asserting the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand for one second when the
reduced voltage timer expires and the motor load has dropped below the REDUCED VOLTAGE FLA setting prior to the
expiration of the reduced voltage timer. If the reduced voltage timer expires prior to the motor load dropping below
the REDUCED VOLTAGE FLA setting, the REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand does not change state and the REDUCED VOLT OP
operand is asserted.
REDUCED VOLT FLA — This setting specifies the current level used when determining the transition mode and initiating the
REDUCED VOLT CTRL operand. Set it greater than the product of the MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS setting and the MOTOR OVERLOAD
FACTOR setting. See the Motor section under the SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR menu for details.

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

and a timer for pickup and reset delays for the output operand. 5
DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 INPUT — Selects a FlexLogic operand to be monitored by the digital element.
DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 PICKUP DELAY — Sets the required time delay from element pickup to element operation. If a pickup delay
is not required, set to "0," To avoid nuisance alarms, set the delay greater than the operating time of the breaker.
DIGITAL ELEMENT 1 RESET DELAY — Sets the time delay to reset. If a reset delay is not required, set to “0.”

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 is 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 drops below the threshold and the Cont Op 1
VOff FlexLogic operand is 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.

Assume the output contact H1 is a trip contact. Using the contact output settings, this output is 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 is given an ID name, for example, “Cont Ip 1," and is set “On” when the breaker is
closed. The settings to use digital element 1 to monitor the breaker trip circuit are indicated (EnerVista example shown).
The wiring connection for two examples above is applicable to both form-A contacts with voltage monitoring
and solid-state contact with voltage monitoring.
NOTE
There are eight 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 (for example, 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 appears 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
5 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 rolls over 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 rolls over 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 sets to the
preset value in the following situations:
• 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 sets to 0)
• 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)
• 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 sets to 0)
COUNTER 1 RESET — Selects the FlexLogic operand for setting the count to either “0” or the preset value depending on the
state of the CNT1 SET TO PRESET operand.
COUNTER 1 FREEZE/RESET — Selects the FlexLogic operand for capturing (freezing) the accumulated count value into a
separate register with the date and time of the operation, and resetting the count to “0.”
COUNTER 1 FREEZE/COUNT — Selects the FlexLogic operand for capturing (freezing) the accumulated count value into a
separate register with the date and time of the operation, and continuing counting. The present accumulated value and
captured frozen value with the associated date/time stamp are available as actual values. If control power is interrupted,
the accumulated and frozen values are saved into non-volatile memory during the power-down operation.

Settings
BRK 1 FLSHOVR SIDE 1 SRC — This setting specifies a signal source used to provide three-phase voltages and three-phase
currents from one side of the current breaker. The source selected as a setting and must be configured with breaker phase
voltages and currents, even if only three VTs are available across the breaker.
BRK 1 FLSHOVR SIDE 2 SRC — This setting specifies a signal source used to provide another set of three phase voltages
whenever six VTs are available across the breaker.
BRK 1 STATUS CLSD A to BRK 1 STATUS CLSD C — These settings specify FlexLogic operands to indicate the open status of the
breaker. A separate FlexLogic operand can be selected to detect individual breaker pole status and provide flashover
detection. The recommended setting is 52a breaker contact or another operand defining the breaker poles open status.
BRK 1 FLSHOVR V PKP — This setting specifies a pickup level for the phase voltages from both sides of the breaker. If six VTs
are available, opening the breaker leads to two possible combinations – live voltages from only one side of the breaker, or
live voltages from both sides of the breaker. Either case sets the scheme for flashover detection upon detection of voltage
above the selected value. Set BRK FLSHOVR V PKP to 85 to 90% of the nominal voltage.
BRK 1 FLSHOVR DIFF V PKP — This setting specifies a pickup level for the phase voltage difference when two VTs per phase
are available across the breaker. The pickup voltage difference should be below the monitored voltage difference when
close or open breaker resistors are left in service. The setting is selected as primary volts difference between the sources.
BRK 1 FLSHOVR AMP PKP — This setting specifies the normal load current which can flow through the breaker. Depending on
the flashover protection application, the flashover current can vary from levels of the charging current when the line is de-
energized (all line breakers open), to well above the maximum line (feeder) load (line/feeder connected to load).
BRK 1 FLSHOVR SPV A to BRK 1 FLSHOVR SPV C — These settings specify FlexLogic operands (per breaker pole) that supervise
the operation of the element per phase. Supervision can be provided by operation of other protection elements, breaker
failure, and close and trip commands. A six-cycle time delay applies after the selected FlexLogic operand resets.
BRK FLSHOVR PKP DELAY — This setting specifies the time delay to operate after a pickup condition is detected.

The CT failure function detects 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 later) 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:
• Zero-sequence current at different source current (can be different set of CTs or different CT core of the same CT)
• Zero-sequence voltage at the assigned source
• Appropriate protection element or remote signal
Settings are described as follows.
CT FAIL 1 FUNCTION — Enables or disables operation of the CT failure element.
CT FAIL 1 BLOCK — Selects a FlexLogic operand to block operation of the element during some condition (for example, an

CT FAIL 1 3I0 INPUT 2 — 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 1 3I0 INPUT 2 PICKUP — Selects the 3I_0 pickup value for input 2 (different CT input) of the relay.

5 The M60 is provided with optional broken rotor bar detection. This feature is specified as an option at the
time of ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.
The broken rotor bar detection function uses the same source as other motor protection functions. This source is defined
by the SYSTEM SETUP MOTOR MOTOR LINE SOURCE setting. The following items must addressed for the broken rotor
bar detection function to operate:
• Phase Currents must be configured on this source for the broken rotor bar detection function
• The AC INPUT WAVEFORMS oscillography setting must not be “Off”
• The Thermal Model must be enabled.
This function monitors only phase A current.
When the broken rotor bar detection function is enabled, an alarm is initiated once the value of ratio of the broken bar
related sideband component versus the system fundamental component is greater than the pickup level for two
consecutive measurements. To reduce probability of a false alarm (caused by impairments other than a rotor bar failure),
the element is active only if the following conditions hold:
• The motor status is “Running” and the motor load is between preset minimum acceptable value and a value just below
the overload (defined by MOTOR FULL LOAD AMPS × MOTOR OVERLOAD FACTOR).
Trying to detect the broken rotor bar during a motor start returns an incorrect result because of the rapid movement
of broken rotor bar components and a heavy change in the motor current. On the other hand, while the motor load is
small, there is not enough resolution to accurately calculate a miniscule spectral component caused by a rotor bar
failure.
• The motor load is steady.
Variations in motor load cause spectral components that can be misinterpreted as rotor bar failure. Instantaneous
motor load values are collected alongside with data for the broken rotor bar algorithm to prevent this from happening.
The average motor load and its standard deviation are calculated. If the standard deviation is greater than its
corresponding setting, the data set is discarded and the broken bar algorithm is not initiated.
• The motor current unbalance is below a corresponding setpoint.
The excessive current unbalance stresses the motor, and it can cause false broken rotor bar detection.
It is recommended that frequency tracking be enabled to avoid possible false broken rotor bar detection results when the
system frequency drifts from the nominal frequency.
The following settings are available for the broken rotor bar detection element.
START OF BRB OFFSET — This setting specifies the beginning of the frequency range where the spectral component due to a
rotor bar failure is searched. The beginning of the frequency range is defined as follows, where f1 is the system frequency
and fstart_offset is this setting.
f start = f 1 + f start_offset Eq. 5-40
If the upper sideband is to be measured, this setting is programmed as follows, where f1 is the system frequency and s is
the motor slip at full load.
f start_offset = 2sf 1 – max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) ) Eq. 5-41
For example, if the full load slip is 0.01, program this setting as follows for a 60 Hz power system.
f start_offset = 2sf 1 – max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) )
Eq. 5-42
= 2 × 0.01 × 60 Hz – 0.8 = 0.40 Hz
If the lower sideband is to be measured, this setting is programmed as follows, where f1 is the system frequency and s is
the motor slip at full load.
f start_offset = – 2 sf 1 – max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) ) Eq. 5-43
Using the same values from previous example, this value is programmed as follows.
f start_offset = – 2 sf 1 – max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) )
Eq. 5-44
= – 2 × 0.01 × 60 Hz – 0.8 = – 2.00 Hz
END OF BRB OFFSET — This setting specifies the end of the frequency range where the spectral component due to a rotor 5
bar failure is searched. The end of the frequency range is defined as follows, where f1 is the system frequency and
fend_offset is this setting.
f end = f 1 + f end_offset Eq. 5-45
If the upper sideband is to be measured, this setting is programmed as follows, where f1 is the system frequency and s is
the motor slip at full load.
f end_offset = 2sf 1 + max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) ) Eq. 5-46
For example, if the full load slip is 0.01, program this setting as follows for a 60 Hz power system.
f end_offset = 2sf 1 + max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) )
Eq. 5-47
= 2 × 0.01 × 60 Hz + 0.8 = 2.00 Hz
If the lower sideband is to be measured, this setting is programmed as follows, where f1 is the system frequency and s is
the motor slip at full load.
f end_offset = – 2 sf 1 + max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) ) Eq. 5-48
Using the same values from previous example, this value is programmed as follows.
f end_offset = – 2 sf 1 + max ( 0.3, min ( 2sf 1 – 0.4, 1.0 ) )
Eq. 5-49
= – 2 × 0.01 × 60 Hz + 0.8 = – 0.40 Hz
BRB START BLOCK DELAY — This setting is used to block the broken rotor bar detection function while the motor is starting for
the time specified. This ensures that the broken rotor bar element is active only when the motor is running.
MINIMUM MOTOR LOAD — When the motor load is less than the value specified by this setting, the data acquisition of the
broken rotor bar detection function is blocked. The broken rotor bar detection algorithm cannot accurately determine the
broken rotor bar spectral component when a motor is lightly loaded.
MAX. LOAD DEVIATION — When the standard deviation of the motor load is greater than the value specified by this setting,
the data acquisition of the broken rotor bar detection function is blocked. The broken rotor bar detection algorithm cannot
accurately determine the broken rotor bar spectral component when the motor load varies.
MAXIMUM CURRENT UNBALANCE — When the current unbalance is greater than the value specified by this setting, the data
acquisition of the broken rotor bar detection function is blocked. The broken rotor bar detection algorithm cannot
accurately determine the broken rotor bar spectral component in a current unbalance situation.
BROKEN ROTOR BAR PICKUP — This setting specifies the pickup threshold for the broken rotor bar detection feature. The
pickup threshold normally is set to a level between –54 dB (very likely, a cracked rotor bar) and –50 dB (probably a broken
rotor bar).
BROKEN ROTOR BAR RESET DLY — This setting specifies a time delay to reset the broken rotor bar detection feature. This
setting can be left at its default value since the element updates its state one to two times per minute.
BRB BLOCK — This setting selects a FlexLogic operand used to block the broken rotor bar detection feature. Typically, a
panel cut-off switch or other user-specified conditions blocks this function.

THRESHOLDS
A contact inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with connections to hard-wired contacts. Wet and dry contacts
are supported.
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 can be assigned to a contact input for diagnostic, setting, and event recording purposes. The CONTACT IP
X On (Logic 1) FlexLogic operand corresponds to contact input “X” being closed, while CONTACT IP X Off corresponds 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 maximum 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 triggers an event.
A raw status is scanned for all Contact Inputs synchronously at the constant rate of 0.5 ms as shown in the following
figure. 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 M60 to validate the new contact state. In the following figure, 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
contact input into the Event Recorder (mark no. 2 in the figure).
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
figure 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.
The FlexLogic operand response time to the contact input change is equal to the debounce time setting plus up to one
protection 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 1 ms.
For example, eight protection passes per cycle on a 60 Hz system correspond to a protection pass every 2.1 ms. With a
contact 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 μs accuracy using the
5
time of the first scan corresponding to the new state (mark no. 2 shown). 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 timer. Keep in mind that the associated FlexLogic operand is asserted/de-asserted later, after validating the
change.
The debounce algorithm is symmetrical: the same procedure and debounce time are used to filter the LOW-HIGH (marks
no.1, 2, 3, and 4 in the figure) and HIGH-LOW (marks no. 5, 6, 7, and 8) transitions.

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 is 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.
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.
There are 64 virtual inputs that can be individually programmed to respond to input signals from the keypad (via the
COMMANDS menu) and communications protocols. All virtual input operands are defaulted to “Off” (logic 0) unless the
appropriate input signal is received.
If the VIRTUAL INPUT x FUNCTION is to “Disabled,” the input is 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
transits from off to on, the output operand is 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.
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 likely needs to be lengthened in time. A
FlexLogic timer with a delayed reset can perform this function.

A contact inputs and outputs are digital signals associated with connections to hard-wired contacts. Wet and dry contacts
are supported.
Upon startup of the relay, the main processor determines from an assessment of the modules installed in the chassis
which contact outputs are available and then present the settings for only these outputs.
An ID can be assigned to each contact output. The signal that can OPERATE a contact output can be any FlexLogic operand
(virtual output, element state, contact input, or virtual input). An additional FlexLogic operand can 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
contacts (see the trip circuit example in the Digital Elements section). The monitor sets 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
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
operation 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 M60 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”
CONTACT OUTPUT H1 EVENTS: “Enabled”
The M60 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 populates 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
contacts when replacing a module.
Since the relay asserts the output contact and reads back its position, it is possible to incorporate self-monitoring
capabilities 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 seals-
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, does 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 seals-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, does 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 closes if set to
“Operate-dominant” and opens if set to “Reset-dominant.”
Application example 1
A latching output contact H1a is to be controlled from two user-programmable pushbuttons (buttons number 1 and 2). The
following settings are applied.
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS INPUTS/OUTPUTS CONTACT
OUTPUTS CONTACT OUTPUT H1a menu (assuming an H4L module):

PUSHBUTTON 2 FUNCTION: “Self-reset”

Application example 2
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.
Program the Latching Outputs by making the following changes in the SETTINGS INPUTS/OUTPUTS CONTACT
OUTPUTS CONTACT OUTPUT H1a and CONTACT OUTPUT H1c menus (assuming an H4L module):
OUTPUT H1a OPERATE: “VO1”
OUTPUT H1a RESET: “VO2”
OUTPUT H1c OPERATE: “VO2”
OUTPUT H1c RESET: “VO1” 5
Since the two physical contacts in this example are mechanically separated and have individual control inputs, they do not
operate at exactly the same time. A discrepancy in the range of a fraction of a maximum operating time can occur.
Therefore, a pair of contacts programmed to be a multi-contact relay do 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
control inputs as shown in the next application example.
Application example 3
A make before break functionality must be added to the preceding example. An overlap of 20 ms is required to implement
this functionality.
Write the following FlexLogic equation (EnerVista example shown).
Application example 4
A latching contact H1a is to be controlled from a single virtual output VO1. The contact is to remain closed as long as VO1
is high, and is to remain opened when VO1 is low. Program the relay as follows.

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.
There are 96 virtual outputs that can be assigned using FlexLogic. If not assigned, the output is forced to ‘OFF’ (Logic 0). An
ID also can be assigned to each virtual output. Virtual outputs are resolved in each pass through the evaluation of the
FlexLogic 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 is
programmed as follows:
VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 ID: "Trip"
VIRTUAL OUTPUT 1 EVENTS: "Disabled"

Some events can be programmed to latch the faceplate LED event indicators and the target message on the display. Once
set, the latching mechanism holds 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 stored
as events, reset the latches if the initiating condition has cleared. The three sources of RESET commands each create the
RESET OP FlexLogic operand. Each individual source of a RESET command also creates its individual operand RESET OP
(PUSHBUTTON), RESET OP (COMMS) or RESET OP (OPERAND) to identify the source of the command. The RESET OPERAND setting here
selects the operand that creates the RESET OP (OPERAND) operand.

5.9.7 Teleprotection
5.9.7.1 Overview 5
The relay provides 16 teleprotection inputs on communications channel 1 (numbered 1-1 through 1-16) and 16
teleprotection inputs on communications channel 2 (on two-terminals two-channel and three-terminal systems only,
numbered 2-1 through 2-16). The remote relay connected to channels 1 and 2 of the local relay is programmed by
assigning FlexLogic operands to be sent via the selected communications channel. This allows the user to create
distributed protection and control schemes via dedicated communications channels. Some examples are directional
comparison pilot schemes and direct transfer tripping. Note that failures of communications channels affect
teleprotection functionality. The teleprotection function must be enabled to utilize the inputs.
Setting the TELEPROT INPUT ~~ DEFAULT setting to “On” defaults the input to logic 1 when the channel fails. A value of “Off”
defaults the input to logic 0 when the channel fails.
The “Latest/On” and “Latest/Off” values freeze 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, then the input defaults to logic 1 for “Latest/
On” and logic 0 for “Latest/Off.”
As the following figure demonstrates, processing of the teleprotection inputs/outputs is dependent on the number of
communication channels and terminals. On two-terminal two-channel systems, they are processed continuously on each
channel and mapped separately per channel. Therefore, to achieve redundancy, the user must assign the same operand
on both channels (teleprotection outputs at the sending end or corresponding teleprotection inputs at the receiving end).
On three-terminal two-channel systems, redundancy is achieved by programming signal re-transmittal in the case of
channel failure between any pair of relays.

The M60 is provided with optional DCmA capability. This feature is specified as an option at the time of
ordering. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details.

Hardware and software are provided to receive signals from external transducers and to convert these signals into a
digital format for use as required. The relay accepts 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. Hardware details are
contained 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.
DCmA input channels are arranged in a manner similar to CT and VT channels. Configure the 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 automatically generates 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
inclusive, which is used as the channel number. The relay generates an actual value for each available input channel.
Settings are generated automatically 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 can be “Enabled” or “Disabled.” If “Disabled,” no actual values are created for the channel. An
alphanumeric “ID” is assigned to each channel; this ID is included in the channel actual value, along with the programmed
units associated with the parameter measured by the transducer, such as volts, °C, megawatts, and so on. 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 is a watts transducer with a span
from –20 to +180 MW; in this case the DCMA INPUT H1 MIN VALUE value is “–20” and the DCMA INPUT H1 MAX VALUE value is
“180.” Intermediate values between the minimum and maximum values are scaled linearly.

RTD input channels are arranged in a manner similar to CT and VT channels. Configure 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,

Settings are generated automatically for every channel available in the specific relay as shown above for the first channel
of a type 5C transducer module installed in the first available slot.
RTD INPUT H1 FUNCTION — The function of the channel can be either “Enabled” or “Disabled.” When disabled, there is no
actual value created for the channel.
RTD INPUT H1 ID — Assigns an alphanumeric ID to the channel. This ID is 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.
RTD INPUT H1 TYPE — Specifies the RTD type. Four different RTD types are available: 100 Ω Nickel, 10 Ω Copper, 100 Ω
Platinum, and 120 Ω Nickel. The following table outlines reference temperature values for each type.
RTD INPUT H1 APPLICATION — This setting allows each individual RTD to be assigned to a group application. This is useful for
applications that require group measurement for voting. A value of “None” specifies that the RTD operates individually and
not part of any RTD group. All RTDs programmed to “Stator” are used for RTD biasing of the M60 thermal model. Common
groups are provided for rotating machines applications such as ambient, bearing, group 1, or group 2. If the RTD INPUT H1
TRIP VOTING setting value is “Group”, then it is allowed to issue a trip if N – 1 RTDs from the same group also pick up, where
N is the number of enabled RTDs from the group.
RTD INPUT H1 ALARM TEMPERATURE — Specifies the temperature pickup level for the alarm stage.
RTD INPUT H1 ALARM PKP DELAY — Specifies time delay for the alarm stage until the output can be asserted.
RTD INPUT H1 TRIP TEMPERATURE — Specifies the temperature pickup level for the trip stage.
RTD INPUT H1 TRIP PKP DELAY — Specifies time delay for the trip stage until the output can be asserted.
RTD INPUT H1 TRIP RST DELAY — Specifies the reset delay to seal-in the trip signal.
RTD INPUT H1 TRIP VOTING — Allows securing trip signal by voting with other RTDs. A value of “None” indicates that element
operates individually and no voting takes place.
A value of “Group” indicates that element is allowed to issue a trip if N – 1 of other RTDs of the same group pick up as well
(where N is the number of enabled RTDs from the group). For example, if three RTDs are assigned to the same group, there
needs to be at least one additional RTD of the same group picked up to issue a trip command.
The “RTD Inp H1” through “RTD Inp W8” values indicate that element is allowed to issue a trip if the corresponding peer RTD
is also picked up.
RTD INPUT H1 OPEN — Allows monitoring of an open RTD sensor circuit. If this functionality is not required, then a value of
“None” disables monitoring and assertion of output operands. If set to “Alarm”, the monitor sets an alarm when a broken
sensor is detected. If set to “Block,” the monitor sets an alarm and simultaneously blocks RTD operation when a broken
sensor is detected.
If targets are enabled, a message appears on the display identifying the broken RTD. If this feature is used, it is
recommended that the alarm be programmed as latched so that intermittent RTDs are detected and corrective action can
be taken.
RTD INPUT H1 BLOCK — This setting is used to block RTD operation.

On power up, the M60 reads and saves all application and type settings from the RRTD. This synchronizes the RRTD and
M60. Any changes to RRTD settings (function, application, or type) from the M60 interface are immediately reflected in the
RRTD. The following rules are followed:
• If the RRTD 1 FUNCTION setting is “Enabled,” then the RRTD 1 APPLICATION setting value is written to RRTD device
• If the RRTD 1 FUNCTION setting is “Disabled,” then RRTD1 APPLICATION setting value is set as “None”
• If the RRTD 1 APPLICATION or RRTD 1 TYPE settings are changed, then these settings are immediately written to the RRTD
device
• If the RRTD 1 APPLICATION setting is “Group 1” or “Group 2,” then a value of “Other” is written to the RRTD device
An RRTD actual value of –43°C implies that the RRTD 1 FUNCTION setting is “Enabled” but the corresponding RRTD 1
APPLICATION setting is “None.”
If the RRTD communication link with the M60 is broken, then the last temperature actual values are retained until the RRTD
communication failure is detected. When this occurs, a RRTD COMM FAILURE self-test alarm and target message is
generated, an event is logged in the event recorder, and the temperature actual values are reset to 0. When the link is re-
established, the RRTD 1 APPLICATION and RRTD 1 TYPE settings are read from the RRTD to re-synchronize the device.
RRTD 1 FUNCTION — This setting enables and disables the remote RTD. When disabled, no actual value is created for the
remote RTD.
RRTD 1 ID — Assign an alphanumeric ID to the remote RTD. This ID is included in the remote RTD actual values. It is also used
to reference the remote RTD input to features using the remote RTD.
RRTD 1 TYPE — This setting specifies the remote RTD type. Four different RTD types are available: 100 Ω Nickel, 10 Ω Copper,
100 Ω Platinum, and 120 Ω Nickel.
The RRTD converts resistance to temperature as per the values in the following table. The M60 reads the RTD temperatures
from the RRTD once every five seconds and applies protection accordingly. The RRTDs can be used to provide RTD bias in
the existing thermal model.

An RRTD open condition is detected when actual RRTD resistance is greater than 1000 ohms and RRTD open is displayed
as “250°C” in the M60.
An RRTD short condition is detected when actual RRTD temperature is less than –40°C and RRTD short is displayed as is “–
50°C” in the M60.
RRTD 1 APPLICATION — This setting allows each remote RTD to be assigned to a group application. This is useful for
applications that require group measurement for voting. A value of “None” specifies that the remote RTD operates
individually and not part of any RTD group. All remote RTDs programmed to “Stator” are used for RTD biasing of the M60
thermal model. Common groups are provided for rotating machines applications, such as ambient, bearing, group 1, or
group 2. If the REMOTE RTD 1 TRIP VOTING setting value is “Group”, then it is allowed to issue a trip if N – 1 RTDs from the
same group also pick up, where N is the number of enabled RTDs from the group.
RRTD 1 ALARM TEMPERATURE — This setting specifies the temperature pickup level for the alarm stage. The range of 1 to
200°C differs from the existing RTD settings to correspond to the range of the RRTD unit.
RRTD 1 ALARM PKP DELAY — This setting specifies time delay for the alarm stage until the output can be asserted. The range
of 5 to 600 seconds differs from the existing RTD settings to correspond to the range of the RRTD unit.
RRTD 1 TRIP TEMPERATURE — This setting specifies the temperature pickup level for the trip stage. The range of 1 to 200°C
differs from the existing RTD settings to correspond to the range of the RRTD unit.
RRTD 1 TRIP PKP DELAY — This setting specifies time delay for the trip stage until the output can be asserted. The range of 5
to 600 seconds differs from the existing RTD settings to correspond to the range of the RRTD unit.
RRTD 1 TRIP RST DELAY — This setting specifies the reset delay to seal-in the trip signal.
RRTD 1 TRIP VOTING — This setting allows securing trip signal by voting with other RTDs. A value of “None” indicates that
element operates individually and no voting takes place.
A value of “Group” indicates that element is allowed to issue a trip if N – 1 of other RTDs of the same group pick up as well
(where N is the number of enabled RTDs from the group). For example, if three RTDs are assigned to the same group, there
needs to be at least one additional RTD of the same group picked up to issue a trip command.
The “Remote RTD 1” through “Remote RTD 12” values indicate that element is allowed to issue a trip if the corresponding
peer RTD is also picked up.
RRTD 1 OPEN — This setting allows monitoring an open remote RTD sensor circuit. If this functionality is not required, then a
value of “None” disables monitoring and assertion of output operands. If set to “Alarm”, the monitor sets an alarm when a
broken sensor is detected. If set to “Block”, the monitor sets an alarm and simultaneously block remote RTD operation
when a broken sensor is detected.
If targets are enabled, a message appears on the display identifying the broken RTD. If this feature is used, it is
recommended that the alarm be programmed as latched so that intermittent RTDs are detected and corrective action can
be taken.
RRTD 1 BLOCK — This setting is used to block remote RTD operation.

Hardware and software is provided to generate DCmA signals that allow interfacing with external equipment. Hardware
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 as follows.
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
example for channel M5 is shown).
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
following equation is applied:
where
x is a driving signal specified by the SOURCE setting
5 Imin and Imax are defined by the RANGE setting
k is a scaling constant calculated as:

The feature is intentionally inhibited if the MAX VAL and MIN VAL settings are entered incorrectly, for example when MAX VAL
– MIN VAL < 0.1 pu. The resulting characteristic is illustrated in the following figure.

Settings
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. See Appendix A for a list of FlexAnalog parameters.
DCMA OUTPUT H1 RANGE — This setting allows selection of the output range. Each DCmA channel can be set independently
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
The minimum and maximum power values to be monitored (in pu) are:
– 20.65 MW 20.65 MW
minimum power = -------------------------- = – 1.247 pu, maximum power = ----------------------- = 1.247 pu Eq. 5-55
16.56 MW 16.56 MW
The following settings are 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.
The base unit for current (see the FlexElements section in this chapter for additional details) is:
I BASE = 5 kA Eq. 5-57
The minimum and maximum power values to be monitored (in pu) are:
0 kA 6.3 kA
minimum current = ---------- = 0 pu, maximum current = -------------- = 1.26 pu Eq. 5-58
5 kA 5 kA
The following settings are entered:
DCMA OUTPUT H2 SOURCE: “SRC 1 Ia RMS”
DCMA OUTPUT H2 RANGE: “4 to 20 mA”
DCMA OUTPUT H2 MIN VAL: “0.000 pu”
DCMA OUTPUT H2 MAX VAL: “1.260 pu”
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 × ( 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.

The base unit for voltage (see the FlexElements section in this chapter for additional details) is:
V BASE = 0.0664 kV × 6024 = 400 kV Eq. 5-60
The minimum and maximum voltage values to be monitored (in pu) are:
161.66 kV 254.03 kV
minimum voltage = ----------------------- = 0.404 pu, maximum voltage = ----------------------- = 0.635 pu Eq. 5-61
400 kV 400 kV
The following settings are entered:
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”
DCMA OUTPUT H3 MAX VAL: “0.635 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” (see 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 × 230.94 kV + 1.27 kV = 2.42 kV.
5.11 Testing
5.11.1 Test mode function
SETTINGS TESTING TEST MODE FUNCTION
TESTING TEST MODE Range: Disabled, Isolated, Forcible
FUNCTION: Disabled
The M60 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 can be in any of three states: Disabled, Isolated, or Forcible.
The Disabled mode is intended for normal in service operation; relay protection, control and communication function is
normal. Test features are disabled, except channel tests and phasor measurement unit tests remain usable when
provided.
The Isolated mode is intended to allow the relay to be quickly placed in a state where the relay cannot negatively impact
the power system or other parts of the substation automation system. This is to allow changing settings, loading new
firmware, changing hardware modules, and changing communication connections. As far as practical all relay output
signals are blocked. Contact outputs are de-energized, latching outputs are frozen. Commands to bricks are blocked.
GOOSE transmissions have their "simulation" flag (also known as "test" flag) set, which results in the messages not being
accepted by compliant receiving devices that do not have a "Sim" data attribute set. The quality attribute of values that
can be output via 61850 MMS services are set to "invalid," which results in the values not being used for operational
purposes by compliant receiving devices.
The Forcible mode is intended for testing involving forcing relay operation by test signal injection and verifying correct
relay output. This mode is also for tests to verify the relay outputs (both contact and communications) have the intended
5
impact on specific power system devices or on specific other substation automation devices. Contact outputs can be
selectively enabled or forced as described in the following two sections. Shared outputs to bricks have their test mode flag
raised, which results in their value only being accepted by relays also in forcible mode. GOOSE transmissions have the
"simulation" flag set, which results in these only being accepted by other devices that have their "Sim" data attribute set.
The "Sim" data attribute in the relay is set, so that if GOOSE messages are received with the "simulation" flag set, these are
used in place of the normal messages. The quality attribute of values that are output via 61850 MMS services are set to
"valid" + "test," which signals that the values should not be used for operational purposes.
Otherwise, the UR remains fully operational while in the Forcible test mode, allowing for various testing procedures. In
particular, the protection and control elements, and FlexLogic function normally. Other than the IEC 61850 protocol,
communications based inputs and outputs remain fully operational. The test procedure must take this into account.
The test mode can be selected either through the front panel, through EnerVista UR Setup, or through IEC 61850 control to
LLN0.Mod. LLN0.Mod.ctlVal "on" selects Disabled, "test/blocked" selects Isolated, and "test" selects Forcible. The TEST MODE
FUNCTION setting can only be changed by a direct user command. Following a restart, power up, settings upload, or
firmware upgrade, the test mode remains at the last programmed value. This allows a UR that has been placed in isolated
mode to remain isolated during testing and maintenance activities.
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.
On restart, the TEST MODE FORCING setting and the force contact input and force contact output settings revert
to their default states.
NOTE
The force contact inputs feature provides a method of performing checks on the function of all contact inputs.
While in Forcible test mode, the relay contact inputs can be pre-programmed to respond in the following ways:
• If set to “Normal,” 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. Select this value 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) while the operand selected by TEST MODE FORCING
setting is On, regardless of the voltage across the input terminals. While the selected operand is Off, the input behaves
as it does when in service.
• If set to “Closed,” the input is forced to report as closed (Logic 1) while the operand selected by TEST MODE FORCING
setting is On regardless of the voltage across the input terminals. While the selected operand is Off, the input behaves
as it does when in service.
On restart, the TEST MODE FORCING setting and the force contact input and force contact output settings revert
to their default states.
NOTE
The force contact outputs feature provides a method of performing checks on the function of all contact outputs.
While in Forcible test mode, the relay contact outputs can be pre-programmed to respond in the following ways:
• If set to “Normal,” the contact output remains fully operational. It operates when its control operand is logic 1 and
resets when its control operand is logic 0.
• If set to “Energized,” the output closes and remains closed while the operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING
setting is On, regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact. While the selected
operand is Off, the output behaves as it does when in service.
• If set to “De-energized,” the output opens and remains opened while the operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING
setting is On, regardless of the status of the operand configured to control the output contact. While the selected
operand is Off, the output behaves as it does when in service.
• If set to “Freeze,” the output retains its position at the instant before the TEST MODE FUNCTION was Forcible and the
operand selected by the TEST MODE FORCING setting was On, regardless of later changes in the status of the operand
configured to control the output contact. While the selected operand is Off, the output behaves as it does when in
service.
On restart, the TEST MODE FORCING setting and the force contact input and force contact output settings revert
to their default states.

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:
• 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
• 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.

The AVERAGE MSG RETURN TIME is the time taken for direct output messages to return to the sender in a direct input/output
ring configuration (this value is not applicable for non-ring configurations). This is a rolling average calculated for the last
ten messages. There are two return times for dual-channel communications modules.
The UNRETURNED MSG COUNT values (one per communications channel) count the direct output messages that do not
make the trip around the communications ring. The CRC FAIL COUNT values (one per communications channel) count the
direct output messages that have been received but fail the CRC check. High values for either of these counts can indicate
on a problem with wiring, the communication channel, or one or more relays. The UNRETURNED MSG COUNT and CRC FAIL
COUNT values can be cleared using the CLEAR DIRECT I/O COUNTERS command.
The DIRECT INPUT 1 to DIRECT INPUT (32) values represent the state of each direct input.
These actual values represent the state of direct devices 1 through 16.

These values specify the remaining number of TCP connections still available for each protocol. The display depends on the
options applicable to your device, for example the PMU entry does not display when not applicable. Each 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 protocol.
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.
MMS TCP — The number of IEC 61850 connections remaining.
PMU TCP — The maximum number of PMU TCP connections matches the number of aggregators. The maximum number of
aggregators for the N60 is 4. The maximum number for the C60 is 2. The maximum number is 1 for other products with a
PMU. The remaining number of aggregators displays here.
The M60 is provided with optional PRP capability. This feature is specified as a software option at the time

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 first determines 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. The figure illustrates this.

This menu displays the metered values available for each source.
Metered values presented for each source depend on the phase and auxiliary VTs and phase and ground CTs assignments
for this particular source. For example, if no phase VT is assigned to this source, then any voltage, energy, and power
values are unavailable.
The metered phase current values are displayed in this menu. The "SRC 1" text gets replaced by whatever name was
programmed by the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES).
The metered ground current values are displayed in this menu. The "SRC 1" text is replaced by the name programmed by
the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES).
The metered phase voltage values are displayed in this menu. The "SRC 1" text is replaced by the name programmed by
the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES).
The metered auxiliary voltage values are displayed in this menu. The "SRC 1" text is replaced by the name programmed by
the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES).
This menu displays metered values for real, reactive, and apparent power, as well as power factor. The "SRC 1" text is
replaced by the name programmed by the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL
SOURCES).
When VTs are configured in wye, the M60 calculates power in each phase and three-phase power is measured as
S = VA x ÎA + VB x ÎB + VC x ÎC Eq. 6-1
When VTs are configured in delta, the M60 does not calculate power in each phase and three-phase power is measured as
S = VAB x ÎA + VCB x ÎC Eq. 6-2
where
S is the apparent power
VA , VB, VC, IA , IB, IC are phase voltage and phase current phasors
This menu displays metered values for real and reactive energy. The "SRC 1" text is replaced by the name programmed by
the user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES). Because energy values are
accumulated, record them and then reset them immediately prior to changing CT or VT characteristics.
The metered frequency values are displayed in this menu. The "SRC 1" text is replaced by the name programmed by the
user for the associated source (see SETTINGS SYSTEM SETUP SIGNAL SOURCES).
SOURCE FREQUENCY is measured via software-implemented zero-crossing detection of an AC signal. The signal is either a
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 6
transients.

This value is updated whenever new values become available.
Up to 250 motor learned data records are stored and accessible via the EnerVista UR Setup software through the following
methods:
• Select the Actual Values > Records > Motor Learned Data menu item
• Select the Maintenance > Retrieve File menu item and open the “MotorLD.htm” file
• Select the Maintenance> Retrieve File menu item and open the “MotorLD.txt” file
The following historical data is displayed in the motor learned data records:
• Report number
• Report date
• Learned acceleration time (in seconds)
• Learned starting current (in multiples of full load current)
• Learned starting capacity (in percent)
• Learned average motor load (in multiples of full load current)
• Learned run time after start (in hours)
The learned values for acceleration time and effective starting current are the maximum of the individual values acquired
for the last N successful starts, where N is defined by the NUMBER OF STARTS TO LEARN setting.
The learned value for the starting thermal capacity is calculated using the maximum of the last motor start measurements
and incorporates a security margin defined by the SETTINGS GROUPED ELEMENTS SETTING GROUP 1(6) MOTOR
THERMAL MODEL START INHIBIT TCU MARGIN setting. For example, if the thermal capacity used for the last five starts is
24, 23, 27, 26, and 21%, respectively, with the START INHIBIT TCU MARGIN = 25%, then the LEARNED STARTING CAPACITY is
27% × 1.25 = 33.75%.
Learned values associated with motor acceleration require the acceleration time function to be enabled. The
learned features are not be used until at least N + 1 successful motor starts have occurred.
NOTE
The starting capacity, starting current, and acceleration time values for the last start are displayed in the ACTUAL VALUES

This menu contains commands for clearing historical data such as the event records. Data is cleared by changing a
command setting to “Yes” and pressing the ENTER key. After clearing data, the command setting automatically reverts to
“No.”
The Clear XSWI commands clear the disconnect operation counters for each phase and the three-phase counter. Similarly,
the Clear XCBR commands clear the circuit breaker operation counters for each phase and the three-phase counter.
The date and time can be entered on the faceplate keypad. The time setting is based on the 24-hour clock. The complete
date, as a minimum, must be entered to allow execution of this command. The new time and date take effect when the
ENTER key is pressed.
When the relay is synchronizing to an external time source such as PTP, IRIG-B, or SNTP, the manually entered time is over-
written.
The timescale of the entered time is local time, including daylight savings time where and when applicable.
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 then automatically
reverts to “No.” The service command is activated by entering a numerical code and pressing the ENTER key.
PERFORM LAMPTEST — Turns on all faceplate LEDs and display pixels for a short duration.
UPDATE ORDER CODE — This 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 displays.
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 displays.
REBOOT RELAY — Restarts 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.
NOTE
SERVICE COMMAND — Performs specific M60 service actions. Presently, there are two service actions available. Code
"20511" returns all settings to their factory default value. Code “101” is used to clear factory diagnostic information stored
in the non-volatile memory. If a code other than these two is entered, the command is ignored and no action is taken.
Various self-checking diagnostics are performed in the background while the M60 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 M60 is shipped from the factory, the user can want to clear the diagnostic information for
themselves under certain circumstances. For example, you 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 restart
from scratch.
SAVE VOLATILE DATA — Saves this data to compact flash memory prior to shutdown. This allows the saved data to be as
recent as possible instead of relying on the periodic timer to save the data.
7.1.5 Security
COMMANDS SECURITY
SECURITY ADMINISTRATOR Range: Yes, No
LOGOFF: No
With the CyberSentry option, this setting is available to enable or disable the following commands.
ADMINISTRATOR LOGOFF — Selecting ‘Yes’ allows the Supervisor to forcefully logoff an administrator session.
ENGINEER LOGOFF — Selecting ‘Yes’ allows the Supervisor to forcefully logoff an engineer session.
OPERATOR LOGOFF — Selecting ‘Yes’ allows the Supervisor to forcefully logoff an operator session.
CLEAR SECURITY DATA — Selecting ‘Yes’ allows the Supervisor to forcefully clear all the security logs and clears all the
operands associated with the self-tests.

and Digital Element 48 target settings are active and so have their targets displayed. The down arrow below the two
elements indicates that there can be other active elements beyond these two.
For more information, see the description of target messages in the next section, and the Introduction to Elements section
in the Settings chapter for instructions on TARGET setting.
When no targets are active, the display reads NO ACTIVE TARGETS.
If a self test error is detected, a message appears indicating the cause of the error. For example UNIT NOT PROGRAMMED
indicates that the minimal relay settings have not been programmed.

8.1 Testing
8.1.1 Testing underfrequency and overfrequency elements
Underfrequency and overfrequency protection requires techniques with subtle testing implications. Whereas most
protection is designed to detect changes from normal to fault conditions that occur virtually instantaneously, power
system inertia requires frequency protection to pick up while the frequency is changing slowly. Frequency measurement is
inherently sensitive to noise, making high precision in combination with high speed challenging for both relays and test
equipment.
Injection to a particular M60 frequency element must be to its configured source and to the channels that the source uses
for frequency measurement. For frequency measurement, a source uses the first quantity configured in the following
order:
1. Phase voltages
2. Auxiliary voltage
3. Phase currents
4. Ground current
For example, if auxiliary voltage and phase currents are configured, the source uses the auxiliary voltage, not the phase
voltages or any of the currents.
When phase voltages or phase currents are used, the source applies a filter that rejects the zero-sequence component. As
such, the same signal must not be injected to all three phases, or the injected signal is completely filtered out. For an
underfrequency element using phase quantities, the phase A signal must be above the MIN VOLT/AMP setting value.
Therefore, either inject into phase A only, or inject a balanced three-phase signal.

The static accuracy of the frequency threshold is determined by slowly adjusting the frequency of the injected signal about
the set pickup. If the M60 frequency metering feature is used to determine the injected frequency, verify the metering
accuracy by checking it against a known standard (for example, the power system).
To accurately measure the time delay of a frequency element, a test emulating realistic power system dynamics is
required. Let the injected frequency ramp smoothly through the set threshold, with the ramp starting frequency sufficiently
outside the threshold so that the relay becomes conditioned to the trend before operation. For typical interconnected
power systems, the recommended testing ramp rate is 0.20 Hz/s.
The required delay time is the interval from the point the frequency crosses the set threshold to the point that the element
operates. Some test sets can measure only the time from the ramp start to element operation, necessitating the
subtraction of the pre-threshold ramp time from the reading. For example, with a ramp rate of 0.20 Hz/s, start the ramp
0.20 Hz before the threshold and subtract 1 second from the test set time reading of ramp start to relay operation.
Note that the M60 event records only show the “pickup delay” component, a definite time timer. This is exclusive of the
time taken by the frequency responding component to pickup.
M60 oscillography can be used to measure the time between the calculated source frequency crossing the threshold and
element operation; however, this method omits the delay in the calculated source frequency. The security features of the
source frequency measurement algorithm result in the calculated frequency being delayed by two to four cycles (or longer
with noise on the input). In addition, oscillography resolution is 0.004 Hz, which at 0.20 Hz/s corresponds to a delay of 20
8 ms. Do not use the tracking frequency in timing measurements, as its algorithm involves phase locking, which purposely
sets its frequency high or low to allow the M60 sample clock to catch-up or wait as necessary to reach synchronism with
the power system.

To restore settings from an IID using SFTP:
1. In Windows, make a copy the IID file with a cid extension.
2. On a computer on the same subnetwork as the UR device, open a SFTP client application, such as WinSCP. Note that
TFTP cannot be used here.
3. Use the device's IP address as the host name.
4. If the device has the CyberSentry option, use the User Name of "Administrator" or "Engineer", and the password
programmed for the selected role. The default password is "ChangeMe1#" (without quotation marks).
5. If the device does not have the CyberSentry option, use the User Name of "Setting", and the password programmed for
the Setting role. The default password is "ChangeMe1#" (without quotation marks).
6. Upload the backup file copy with the CID extension. WinSCP uses drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste for this.
7. Manually copy the remaining settings, outlined as follows.
5. Set the device to "programmed" under Settings > Produce Setup > Installation.
6. If you changed the Remote Setting Authorized, the Local Setting Authorized settings, or relay lock settings, return
them to their previous settings.
7. To apply any previously saved settings, right-click the saved settings file in the Offline Window area and select Write
to Device.

To make the order codes consistent:
1. In EnerVista, click the Device Setup button. The window opens.
2. Expand the entry for the UR device.
3. Click the Read Order Code button. The order code and version of the device are populated to the software.
Withdraw or insert a module only when control power has been removed from the unit, and be
WARNING 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
NOTICE 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. Replace modules only with like
modules in their original factory configured slots.
To replace a module:
1. Open the enhanced faceplate to the left once the thumb screw has been removed. This allows for easy access 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 M60.
Figure 9-4: Modules inside relay with front cover open (enhanced faceplate)
842812A1.CDR
The standard faceplate can be opened to the left once the black plastic sliding latch on the right side has been pushed
up, as shown below.
2. With power to the unit off, disconnect individually the connections from the module before removing the module from
the chassis.
3. To properly remove a module, pull simultaneously the ejector/inserter clips, located at the top and bottom of the
module. Record the original location 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.
4. To properly insert a module, 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.
The new CT/VT modules can only be used with new CPUs; similarly, old CT/VT modules can only be used with
old CPUs. In the event that there is a mismatch between the CPU and CT/VT module, the relay does not function
NOTE
and a DSP ERROR or HARDWARE MISMATCH error displays.
9.6 Battery

6. In the dictionary file in the <Path_to_Radius>\etc\raddb folder, add the following line.
$INCLUDE dictionary.ge
For example, the file can look like the following:
$INCLUDE ../shareéfreeradius/dictionary
$INCLUDE dictionary.ge
7. For the first start, run the RADIUS server in debug mode to ensure that there are no compiling errors.
<Path_to_Radius>/start_radiusd_debug.bat
8. Set up the RADIUS parameters on the UR as follows.
8.1. If logging in, select Device for the Authentication Type, and use Administrator for the User Name. The default
password is "ChangeMe1#".
8.2. Access 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.
9. Verify operation. Log in to the UR software as follows. In the login window, select Server as the Authentication Type,
enter the user name entered (for example user name Tester and password "testpw"). Check that the RADIUS server log
file shows the access with an "Access-Accept" entry.
Recall that If you tried another third-party tool and it did not work, you can use the FreeRADIUS software from
freeradius.net.
