APPLICATION NOTES (P34x/EN AP/G44)

2.1 Configuration column The P34x relays include a column in the menu called the CONFIGURATION column. This affects the operation of each of the individual protection functions. The aim of this column is to allow general configuration of the relay from a single point in the menu. Any of the functions that are disabled or made invisible from this column do not then appear within the main relay menu. The following table shows the relay menu for the configuration column, with default settings. The brief description of the function of each setting is also provided.

2.3 2.3.1
Phase rotation Description A facility is provided in the P340 to maintain correct operation of all the protection functions even when the generator is running in a reverse phase sequence. This is achieved through user configurable settings available for the four setting groups. The default phase sequence for P340 is the clockwise rotation ABC. Some power systems may have a permanent anti-clockwise phase rotation of ACB. In pump storage applications there is also a common practice to reverse two phases to facilitate the pumping operation, using phase reversal switches. However, depending on the position of the switches with respect to the VTs and CTs, the phase rotation may not affect all the voltage and current inputs to the relay. The following sections describe some common scenarios and their effects. In the description, CT1 provides current measurements for all the current based protection (IA-1/IB-1/IC-1), CT2 (IA-2/IB-2/IC-2) is used for the generator differential protection only. For pump storage applications the correct phase rotation settings can be applied for a specific operating mode and phase configuration in different setting groups. The phase configuration can then be set by selecting the appropriate setting group, see section 3.10 for more information of changing setting groups. This method of selecting the phase configuration removes the need for external switching of CT circuits or the duplication of relays with connections to different CT phases. The phase rotation settings should only be changed when the machine is off-line so that transient differences in the phase rotation between the relay and power system due to the switching of phases dont cause operation of any of the protection functions. To ensure that setting groups are only changed when the machine is off-line the changing of the setting groups could be interlocked with the IA/IB/IC undercurrent start signals and an undervoltage start signal in the PSL.
2.3.1.1
Case 1 - phase reversal switches affecting all CTs and VTs The phase reversal affects all the voltage and current measurements in the same way, irrespective of which two phases are being swapped. This is also equivalent to a power system that is permanently reverse phase reversed.
All the protection functions that use the positive and negative sequence component of voltage and current will be affected (NPS overcurrent and NPS overvoltage, thermal overload, voltage transformer supervision). Directional overcurrent is also affected as the polarizing signal (Vbc, Vca, Vab) is reversed by the change in phase rotation. The generator differential protection is not affected, since the phase reversal applies to CT1 and CT2 in the same way. The relationship between voltages and currents from CT1 for the standard phase rotation and reverse phase rotation are as shown below.

Case 2 - phase reversal switches affecting CT1 only The phase reversal affects CT1 only. All the protection functions that use CT1 currents and the 3 phase voltages (power, pole slipping, field failure, underimpedance, voltage controlled overcurrent, directional overcurrent) will be affected, since the reversal changes the phase relationship between the voltages and currents. The generator differential protection and protection that use positive and negative sequence current and voltage will also be affected.

The Phase Sequence setting applies to a power system that has a permanent phase sequence of either ABC or ACB. It is also applicable for temporary phase reversal which affects all the VTs and CTs. As distinct from the other phase reversal settings, this setting does not perform any internal phase swapping of the analogue channels. The Phase Sequence setting affects the sequence component calculations as follows: Standard ABC The calculations of positive (I1, V1) and negative (I2, V2) phase sequence voltage and current remain unchanged as follows:
X1 =
X2 =
Reverse ACB
1 Xa + Xb + 2 Xc 3
1 Xa + 2 Xb + Xc 3
The calculations of positive (I1, V1) and negative (I2, V2) phase sequence voltage and current are given by the equations:
X1 = X2 =
1 X a + 2 Xb + Xc 3 1 Xa + Xb + 2 Xc 3

The Phase Sequence setting also affects the directional overcurrent protection as follows: Phase Rotation Standard ABC 67 (Directional Overcurrent) Phase A Phase B Phase C Reverse ACB Phase A Phase B Phase C use Ia, Vbc use Ib, Vca use Ic, Vab use Ia, -Vbc use Ib, -Vca use Ic, -Vab
The VT Reversal, CT1 Reversal and CT2 Reversal settings apply to applications where some or all of the voltage or current inputs are temporarily reversed, as in pump storage applications. The settings affect the order of the analogue channels in the relay and are set to emulate the order of the channels on the power system. So, assuming the settings emulate the change in phase configuration on the power system all the protection functions will naturally operate as per a standard phase rotation system. The phase sequence calculations and the protection functions all remain unchanged. Note, there are 2 approaches to using the System Config settings where 2 phases are swapped. The settings can be used to maintain a generator view of the phase sequence or a system (or busbar) view of the phase sequence for a generator fault. For example, in Case 2, for a generator A-phase winding fault, the relay will report a B phase fault if the CT1 Reversal setting is set to A-B Swapped (system or busbar view of faulted phase). For a busbar fault the correct faulted phase will be given in the fault record. In the above example, instead of swapping A-B phase of CT1, the user can alternatively set A-B Swapped for CT2 Reversal and the VT Reversal and apply the Phase Sequence setting to Reverse ACB. With this approach, internal faults (e.g., A-phase winding fault) will give the correct phase information in the fault records (generator view of faulted phase), whereas an external A-phase fault will be presented as a B-phase fault. So, to obtain a phase sequence maintaining a generator viewpoint for a generator fault the CTs/VTs not affected by the change must have the phase swapping setting to match the external switching. Also, since the machines sequence rotation has been affected, the Sequence Reversal setting will also need to be applied accordingly. To obtain a phase sequence maintaining a system viewpoint for a generator fault the CTs/VTs affected by the change must have the phase swapping setting to match the external switching. The Sensitive Power is a single phase power element using A phase current and voltage. If Sensitive Power is applied and the A phase current only has been swapped, the power calculation will be wrong since the voltage and current inputs are not from the same phase. If for example in Case 2 the A-B phases are swapped and the sensitive CT is on the generator side of the switch. It is possible to use the alternative approach where the CT2 and VT phases are swapped so that the A-phase voltage (from generators view point) is restored for the correct calculation of the A-phase power. This problem cannot be resolved with the other approach where only CT1 phases are swapped, therefore the protection will need to be disabled or the phase reversal switches arranged such that the A phase is not swapped or the sensitive power CT placed on the same side of the switch as the VT.
3.8
Disturbance recorder The integral disturbance recorder has an area of memory specifically set aside for record storage. The number of records that may be stored by the relay is dependent upon the selected recording duration. The relay can typically store a minimum of 50 records, each of 1.5 seconds duration (8 analog channels and 32 digital channels). VDEW relays, however, have the same total record length but the VDEW protocol dictates that only 8 records (of 3 seconds duration) can be extracted via the rear port. Disturbance records continue to be
recorded until the available memory is exhausted, at which time the oldest record(s) are overwritten to make space for the newest one. The recorder stores actual samples which are taken at a rate of 24 samples per cycle. Each disturbance record consists of a maximum of 9/12/13 analog data channels for P342/3/4 and thirty-two digital data channels. Note: The relevant CT and VT ratios for the analog channels are also extracted to enable scaling to primary quantities. If a CT ratio is set less than unity, the relay will choose a scaling factor of zero for the appropriate channel. The DISTURBANCE RECORDER menu column is shown below: Menu Text Default Setting Setting Range Min. Max. Step Size

The available analog and digital signals will differ between relay types and models and so the individual courier database in the Relay Menu Database (P34x/EN GC) should be referred to when determining default settings etc.
The pre and post fault recording times are set by a combination of the Duration and Trigger Position cells. Duration sets the overall recording time and the Trigger Position sets the trigger point as a percentage of the duration. For example, the default settings show that the overall recording time is set to 1.5s with the trigger point being at 33.3% of this, giving 0.5s pre-fault and 1s post fault recording times. If a further trigger occurs whilst a recording is taking place, the recorder will ignore the trigger if the Trigger Mode has been set to Single. However, if this has been set to Extended, the post trigger timer will be reset to zero, thereby extending the recording time. As can be seen from the menu, each of the analog channels is selectable from the available analog inputs to the relay. The digital channels may be mapped to any of the opto isolated inputs or output contacts, in addition to a number of internal relay digital signals, such as protection starts, LEDs etc. The complete list of these signals may be found by viewing the available settings in the relay menu or via a setting file in MiCOM S1. Any of the digital channels may be selected to trigger the disturbance recorder on either a low to high or a high to low transition, via the Input Trigger cell. The default trigger settings are that any dedicated trip output contacts (e.g. relay 3) will trigger the recorder. It is not possible to view the disturbance records locally via the LCD; they must be extracted using suitable software such as MiCOM S1. This process is fully explained in SCADA Communications (P34x/EN CT).
3.10
Changing setting groups The setting groups can be changed either via 2 DDB signals or via a menu selection selection or via the hotkey menu. In the Configuration column if Setting Group - select via PSL is selected then DDBs 629 (SG Select 1x) and 628 (SG Select x1), which are dedicated for setting group selection, can be used to select the setting group as shown in the table below. These DDB signals can be connected to opto inputs for local selection or control inputs for remote selection of the setting groups. If Setting Group - select via menu is selected then in the Configuration column the Active Settings - Group1/2/3/4 can be used to select the setting group. The setting group can be changed via the hotkey menu providing Setting Group select via menu is chosen. SG Select 1x 0 1 0 1 Note: SG Select x1 0 0 1 1 Selected Setting Group 1 2 3 4
Setting groups comprise both Settings and Programmable Scheme Logic. Each is independent per group - not shared as common. The settings are generated in the Settings and Records application within MiCOM S1, or can be applied directly from the relay front panel menu. The programmable scheme logic can only be set using the PSL Editor application within MiCOM S1, generating files with extension .psl. It is essential that where the installation needs application-specific PSL that the appropriate .psl file is downloaded (sent) to the relay, for each and every setting group that will be used. If the user fails to download the required .psl file to any setting group that may be brought into service, then factory default PSL will still be resident. This may have severe operational and safety consequences.
Update Documentation MiCOM P342, P343, P344 3.17 Any trip
The Any Trip DDB (DDB 626) has been made independent from Relay 3 in the version 32 software. In Previous versions of software the Any Trip signal was the operation of Relay 3. In the version 32 software DDB 626 is the Any Trip signal and any output contact used for tripping can be connected to the Any Trip DDB leaving Relay 3 to be freely assigned for any function. The Any Trip signal affects the following functions: Operates the Trip LED Triggers CB condition maintenance counters Used to measure the CB operating time Triggers the circuit breaker failure logic Used in the Fault recorder logic
In the default PSL, Relay 3 is still mapped to the Any Trip DDB and the Fault REC TRIG DDB signals. If the user wants to make use of the CB maintenance features, CB failure function etc. they should map the output contact(s) assigned for tripping the monitored circuit breaker to the Any Trip DDB. The output contact(s) assigned for tripping the monitored circuit breaker should also be connected to the fault record trigger Fault REC TRIG DDB 623 for fault record triggering. Note, where relay 3 or any other contact is used to initiate the Any Trip signal the contact should not be set to latched as the Any Trip is used to trigger (on pick-up) and reset (on drop-off) the fault recorder window. So if the Any Trip is latched the fault recording window never resets and so you wont see a fault record on the relay front display as the relay thinks the fault is still present. The default setting for relay 3 is a dwell time of 100ms, a dwell is the minimum time the contact will be ON and is used for trip functions to ensure a good quality trip signal is obtained. As an example of a dwell timer, a dwell of 100ms means that if the initiating signal is ON for 10ms then the output contact is ON for 100ms and if the initiating signal is ON for 200ms then the output contact is ON for 200ms.

For Class-X current transformers, the excitation current at the calculated kneepoint voltage requirement should be less than 2.5n (<5% of the maximum perspective fault current 50 n, on which these CT requirements are based). For IEC standard protection class current transformers, it should be ensured that class 5P are used.
