Operation Function
Under current protection operating
disappearing or sinking Current Flow
This may be happened by switching operation
and or by falling loads or supply
This Protection shall detect the unbalance
currents with two levels start and operate
The phase unbalance protection function shall
be able to detect the unsymmetrical feeder
Voltages

The circuit breaker Failure protection shall be

initiated by trip signal from any protection
function. The initiation signal can be external
through binary input or internally.
Where single pole tripping is applied, the
breaker Failure protection shall be phase
segregated.
The fibre optic core shall be provided for
communication. An extra redundant full duplex
2.0 Mbit/Sec Channels shall be provided for
unit protection which shall essentially be
synchronized through the GPS system and
inter tripping through the telecom network
It shall be provided with 5 distance zones and
selectable Quadrature and Mho characteristics
and shall have independent zone reach
setting. Each zone shall be adjustable for
forward or reverse looking
The protection shall support parallel line and
load current compensation features
Single phase, sensitive, for directional
comparison earth fault protection for high
resistance ground faults using permissive
scheme using tele protection scheme via fibre
optics, with echo back feature for open end
line and weak in feed and permissive over
reach features
SOTF feature shall initiate 3-phase
instantaneous tripping and block the auto
reclosing relay
The distance protection shall be provided with
VT fuse failure blocking internally or via binary
input signal
Power swing blocking scheme provided and it
shall be quadrilateral
The ground fault protection of all zones shall
be provided with residual compensation or

both positive and zero sequence resistance

and reactance independently settable for each
zones
The operating time of zone-1 protection shall
not be unduly increased dueto CVT transients.
The transient performance CVT as per IEC
61869-5: 2011 shall provide protection
stability & security for close-in faults in both
directions.

This function only applicable for overhead

lines/feeders, it shall be blocked for
underground cable line/feeders
The thermal overload and switch on to fault
protection function shall be settable to block
the auto reclosing function if operated and
unblock AR function when resettled
The three pole AR function shall be released
by a syncrochek signal internally from
incorporated synchrochek function or
externally via binary input signal

The distance protection scheme shall include but not limited to the following
additional functions/features as shown in table

Case or Condition for lockout of CB closing

Unsuccessful Auto reclosing
Close time out and the Circuit Breaker did not close
A new shot is initiated during the discrimination time
The protection trip signal has been active longer than the dead time

Charging Current Calculation!

Charging current Ic = 2 x pi x f x C x V
Where f is the frequency of the supply
C is the Capacitance of the line
V is the voltage of the line
