ABB Features Application High impedance differential relay RADHA MAK 509 015-8EN oe! en ote (eco vets) + Secure operation, not affected by CT saturation + Voltage limiting resistors + High speed operation, typical one cycle + Three-phase operation ‘The high impedance differential relays are suitable as reliable restricted earth (single phase) or short-circuit (three-phase) protec- tion for generators, auto transformers, reac- tors, motors and busbars. Applications are not limited by CT saturation al or external faults since this is con- in the setting formulas, CT’s must be dedicated for this application and without turn correction. Non-linear resistors are used to protect against peak voltages during saturation ‘The operating level of the high impedance relay is to be set to the lowest value not giving operation caused by faults outside the + 10-400 V setting in five models + Electromechanical pick-up element + Test device included + CT supervision optional (ero Fig. 1 Principle application of a high impedance relayHigh impedance differential relay RADHA MRK $09 015-BEN Design The RADHA relay is part of the COMBI- FLEX family, Ibis available in eight versions, five of these versions each with reconnecting. operate values U,, and U,a, and three ver= sions with continuously settable operate value between 100 and 400 V. The lowest operate value is 10 V. The basic relay includes RTXP 18 test switch, RXTLA 1 rectifier modules, RXTCA 1 capacitor modules and RXID 1 overcurrent relays, Inall versions the operate value of the protec- tion is set on resistors, either mounted in the RXTLA 1 unit or for the 100-400 V version ‘on adjustable resistors mounted on an appara- tus plate together with the non-linear resis tors, The RXID 1 is an instantancous electromechanical relay containing one heavy-duty and two medium- (tip-) duty contacts. It has fixed operate values, The relay curtent-measuring circuit is fed through the short-circuiting connector type RTXK so that the current transformer secondary circuit is automatically short-circuited when the relay is removed from the terminal base. Flag relay type RXSF | for trip indication is included in five versions. The RADHA is normally connected for U,g, operate value, when delivered. On roquest, non standard operate value can be obtained, The RADHA relay has been designed with filter circuits which will attenuate the de component. Practical experience has shown that a relay setting, according to the formula below, is sulficient to secure correct relay ‘operation, even for the most extreme transient CT saturation, U, is calculated for the maximum fault current using the formula: Usshte where Us ‘Operating voltage setting p= Secondary current at maximum fault te Sum of maximum secondary CT and lead loop-resistance upto junction point ‘When a fault current occurs, a voltage is rap- idly generated across the relay circuit, To pre- vent this voltage from becoming too high, the relay is connected in parallel with a non linear resistor.
