Current protection

Instantaneous phase overcurrent protection (PIOC, 50)

The instantaneous three phase overcurrent function has a low transient overreach and short tripping

time to allow use as a high set short-circuit protection function, with the reach limited to less than

typical eighty percent of the power line at minimum source impedance.

Four step phase overcurrent protection (POCM, 51_67)

The four step phase overcurrent function has an inverse or definite time delay independent for each

step separately.

All IEC and ANSI time delayed characteristics are available together with an optional user defined

time characteristic.

The function can be set to be directional or non-directional independently for each of the steps.

Instantaneous residual overcurrent protection (PIOC, 50N)

The single input overcurrent function has a low transient overreach and short tripping times to

allow use as a high set short circuit protection function, with the reach limited to less than typical

eighty percent of the power line at minimum source impedance. The function can be configured

to measure the residual current from the three phase current inputs or the current from a separate

current input.

Functionality

Differential protection

High impedance differential protection(PDIF, 87)

The high impedance differential protection can be used when the involved CT cores have same turn

ratio and similar magnetizing characteristic. It utilizes an external summation of the phases and neu

tral current and a series resistor and a voltage dependent resistor externally to the relay.

The single input overcurrent function has a low transient overreach and short tripping times to

allow use as a high set short circuit protection function, with the reach limited to less than typical

eighty percent of the power line at minimum source impedance. The function can be configured

to measure the residual current from the three phase current inputs or the current from a separate

current input.

Four step residual overcurrent protection (PEFM, 51N/67N)

The four step single input overcurrent function has an inverse or definite time delay independent for

each step separately.

All IEC and ANSI time delayed characteristics are available together with an optional user

defined characteristic.

High set instantaneous phase and earth overcur rent, 4 step directional or un-directional delayed

phase and earth overcurrent, thermal overload and two step under and overvoltage functions are

examples of the available functions allowing user to fulfill any application requirement.

Disturbance recording and fault locator are avail able to allow independent post-fault analysis after

primary disturbances with a single failure in the protection system.

6 x 32 dual directional channels for intertrip and binary signals transfer is available in the commu

nication between selected IEDs inside the station or in a near-by station.

The advanced logic capability, where the user logic is prepared with a graphical tool, allows spe

cial applications such as automatic opening of disconnectors in multi-breaker arrangements, closing

of breaker rings, load transfer logics etc. The graphical configuration tool ensures simple and

fast testing and commissioning.

Serial data communication is via optical connections to ensure immunity against disturbances.

The wide application flexibility makes this product an excellent choice for both new installations and

the refurbishment of existing installations.
