KINGSINE ELECTRIC AUTOMATION CO., LTD.

Attentions It is prohibited to connect the host instrument with 380V three-phase AC or DC power supply. Make sure of grounding well for the tester before testing in case of damage caused by Electrostatic induction. There are good Grounding picture in the right bottom of each interface menu. Make sure of grounding well for the relay test set before testing in case of damage caused by Electrostatic induction. There is the icon to indicating well grounding at the right bottom of each interface Please check the grounding linking if showing picture .

External voltage source or current source is forbidden to be conducted into the output contacts of voltage/current of the tester. The voltage circuit can not be short circuit or overload, and the load of the current circuit should meet Impedance values given by the technical parameters so that it can prevent the overload from affecting the testing results. When there is overload or short-circuit in the voltage source, the tester will automatically shut down the amplifier power and testing, and give out some warning signal. When the heavy current output has been continued for a long time and the power amplifier temperature is over high, K10 series will automatically shut down the amplifier power supply and give out warning signal. At that time, the test will not be continued until the amplifier power is cooling to the normal degree. If any fault was detected on the tester, please contact the factory or the local agent for repair issue instead of open the box without any approval. If there is any emergency during the test, please right away exit out the button of amplifier, then shut down the power supply of the host. The tester is supposed to bring back to the package box on condition it has not been used.

instrument is light load; when it request higher resistance value with load or the bigger current for output in instrument, suggest switching the state of the heavy load before testing. 11 Exit Exit this module and return to the K1066i Main menu of the system.

4.2.2 Time parameter setting


Pre-fault time: Before each subtest item starts, the tester always outputs a certain period of time called pre-fault time (i.e. empty load state) which ensure the protective contacts is reliably drop off and that the reclose is prepared. Thus, this time setting is bigger than the drop-off time of protective relay (include the charge time of reclose), usually its value is at around 20s...25s. Fault time: the time from the moment when entering the fault state to the moment when test is over, covering the time for reclose and permanent trip. Interval time: After one subtest item is finished during the test, the tester will stop output until the interval time is over; then the test set will go on to do the next test item. Hold time: Set the output holding time for each state, generally, the settings of hold time is bigger than the action time of the protective relay. Step time: When automatic testing, the time of each step change when variable change from the start value to the end value; the automatic time setting usually should be more than action time and Return time of the protection relay. Maximum automatic testing time is set to 1000s. When manually testing, users can decide the time of each step changing. Timer startup mode: set the trigger mode for the timer. When meeting the condition of trigger, then the timer will start, there are 17 kinds in total for timer starts time-counting. Timer stop mode: when the timer begins to count, if meeting the condition of stop, then the timer will stop, there are 17 kinds in total for timer stopping. Deglitch: Generally, it can be set to 1015 ms and this kind of time parameter is to set prevent the protection contact from jittering which affect the tested result in the process of testing when it is the automatic test; and the
- 18 -

Basic operation

located state will be recognized only when the reclosed contact or the lasting disconnection meets the set time.

4.2.3 Test trigger mode & start mode


Key-press trigger: after test start, select by manual to determine whether to enter the fault state or not. Time trigger: Enter the fault state after the tester finished its output under some state for a certain period. Contact H overturn starting: automatically entering the next state when contact H receives the signal of protective action. GPS triggering: trigger at per solid minute by GPS clock synchronizing device to realize the synchronization test among several testers.

4.2.4 Binary I/O Setting


Binary input logic: there are two options, namely are logic or and logic and. Logic or means action signal is perceived on condition any one of the eight selected binary input contacts meet the requirement; logic and means action signal is perceived on condition all of the eight selected binary input contacts meet the requirement; Given that one binary input terminal is selected, then same effect for logic or and logic and. Definition of Binary input: Three pairs binary input are namely A, B, C is able to define as (protective) trip A, trip B, trip C or triplet trip signal even user can close them. No more testing the state change of the binary input contact during the test. Binary input 4 is generally perceived as reclose binary input signal, K10 series has another four pairs of binary input contacts a, b, c, r. Binary output: The tester can output the Binary of side-board "1", "2", "3", "4" 4-pair contact in air contact, and enable the tester to disconnect or open a relay contact closure before pre-fault or transient fault. Binary 1 means close or high-potential and 0 means open or low-potential.

4.2.5 Parameters
Rated Voltage: to protect PT secondary side, usually set as 57.735V. Rated Frequency: the real-time frequency of voltage/current under the prevailing fault state. Loaded current: the amplitude value of current under the normal state, which usually set as 0.
- 19 -

Basic operation

Loaded phase: the phase of current under the normal state. The start angle of Short-circuit: the angle between the transient short-circuit voltage and short-circuit current before entering the fault. Reclose delay: the reclosed time of the circuit breaker simulator; the tester will wait for one section of the Binary I/O recloses delay after receiving reclose action signal, and then switch voltage volume and current volume to the post-reclose state. It can be set 0 S if the circuit breaker is being connected. Trip delay: the open time of the circuit breaker simulator; the tester will wait for one section of the open delay of Binary I/O after receiving the protective trip signal, and then switch voltage and current to the post-trip state. It can be set 0 S if the circuit breaker is connected. DC-offset: when setting the overlapping non-periodic weight/heft there is an attenuated DC weight/heft overlapping in sine signal during the startup moment. If the impedance angle of the circuit equals the impedance angle of the system, when, there is no attenuated DC voltage weight/heft. When the mode option to be calculated is constant voltage or constant current mode, and there is no DC voltage weight/heft. Under Random, since it is the manual setting current and voltage value, the effect on non-periodic weight/heft will not be considered when computing. The starting value of non-periodic voltage and current weight/heft is relevant to the hour when the short-circuiting happens, that is to say the hour of short-circuit that happens is relevant to the starting phase angle (the closed angle) of power voltage.

Distance
when CT position point to bus bar, IN is polarity terminal while IA, IB, IC is non-polarity terminal 4. The counting models involved

There are three counting models: short-circuit current constant/invariable, short-circuit voltage constant/invariable, power supply impedance constant/invariable . Current constant/invariable There is an ideal current source in the fault circuit assumed by the model. Short-circuit voltage computed by short-circuit current and short-circuit impedance.

Current constant/invariable counting model

. Voltage constant/invariable There is an ideal voltage source in the fault circuit assumed by the model. Short-circuit current computed by short-circuit voltage and short-circuit impedance.

Voltage constant/invariable counting model

. impedance constant/invariable There is a power impedance in series with the ideal voltage source, connecting with the fault circuit. The model is similar to the true grid.

Power supply (system side) constant/invariable counting model

For the count model of the constant current, the amount of short-circuit voltage Vf worked out by current and impedance will not more than VnomNominal Voltage. Given that V>Vnom, then the amount of short-circuit current If will automatically get lower when calculating which results in it meets the conditions of Vf<Vnom.
- 39 -

Distance
For the count model of the voltage constant, when the amount of fault current If computed by voltage and impedance is excessive big, that is If>Imax (30 A), the program will give off the alarm. The solution is to reduce the setting of short-circuit voltage. For the count model of the constant powersystemimpedance, when the amount of short-circuit impedance and the power impedance is near or equals zero, the computed short-circuit current will be over big, that is If>Imax, then the reminder of current beyond the limit will display on the bottom of the screen. The solution is to increase the power impedance to remove the existing number beyond the limit. 5. The settings of Zero-sequence Compensation factor

There are two ways of settings 1. KL 2. Re/Rl & Xe/Xl 3. KL= (Z0-Z1)/ (3*Z1) indicated by Re and Im

Considering zero sequence impedance angle equal to the line impedance angle, now KL is a real number, and the virtual part Im is zero. As for RCS900, ISA300 etc series microcomputer protection relay, its fixed value calibration is stipulated that KL is the zero sequence compensation factors. User must select the mode of KL when testing, at then, Im is set as zero. Re/Rl=Kr=

Xe/Xl = Kx =

As for CSL, PSL, WXB etc series microcomputer protection relay, its fixed value calibration are stipulated that KrKx are the zero sequence compensation factor. User must select the mode of Re/Rl & Xe/Xl as compensation mode. Setting mode: As calibration of fixed value in X direction, please set shortcircuit impedance angle as 90 degree, set Kr as zero.
- 40 -

Distance
As calibration of fixed value in R direction, please set shortcircuit impedance angle as zero degree, set Kr as zero. Note: With regard to non-grounding shortcircuit fault, zero sequence compensation factors are not involved in the computation of shortcircuit.

to 3U0, its value conforms to 3U0 value of the phase-sequence diagram; when Ux is set to be the random value, its amplitude value, phase and frequency can be setting randomly, when Ux phase refers to UA. 7. The definition of Binary input

Three pairs binary input are namely A, B, C is able to define as (protective) trip A, trip B, trip C or triplet trip signal even user can close them. No more testing the state change of the binary input contact during the test. Binary input 4 is generally perceived as reclose binary input signal, K10 series has another four pairs of binary input contacts 5, 6, 7, 8. 8. The setting of binary output The setting of pre-fault time and the setting of binary output based on GPS-trigger fault. Pre-fault time is to set the time before entering the fault. Binary output setting is perceived as output reclose. Once entering the fault state, the tester, in terms of the settings, will give off a signal by the reclose of binary output after delaying one period time. Binary output time delay is set as to cooperate the setting of binary output. And binary output remain is the holding time of giving off signal of binary output. 9. The open/reclose mode of binary output

Including time control, contact control and GPS control three modes. As for time control, K10 series output the corresponding state when the fault time automatically enters various states by the value amount order of the fault time value, trip time value and reclose time value. Binary Input state change will not cause any response. Here the input time value is the duration of the corresponding state (that means fault time, off time and overlapping time)

Pre-fault(s) setting: can be setting under optional fault type. Fault output: can only be set when fault type is Random Change mode: including FromTo ,Quick Scanand FromToFrom Three modes, FromTo is the one-way change, and only action value can be measured by it; FromToFrom is round-way change, and action value and return value can be measured simultaneously. Note: FromToFrom mode must be adopted for testing the sensitive angle; the starting value and final values of the variable, Pre-fault time are only applicable to the automatic testing mode. Pre-fault(s) time: reliable reversion of protection relay should be insured. Fault time: when the fault is simulated every time, it is maximum fault output time which must be over the operating time of the relay. When Pre-fault(s) is set over zero, a dynamic test can be done for the protection relay. The dynamic test equals a number of tests of simulating fault and there are the front fault and fault process every time, but all output faults are different every time, and they will change

The Testing Module is used to test the operate boundary curve of impedance relay under different angle, and then form the action characteristic figure automatically, such as round, quadrangle and ellipse type, etc., shown as the Fig. 4.9-1.

Fig. 4.8-1 Advanced Distance I

4.9.1 Parameter description


Scanning central point: generally to adopt half of angle of maximum sensitivity value of impedance relay. The scanning central point could be setting on the left top corner, or click the central point by mouse left key in the graph on the right. To be mentioned that the impedance value of relay should be acted, or it will not be able to test. Start angle and final angle: set the scan range, namely, the start angle and final angle of impendence relative to the central point; Angle steps: it depends on the total amount of scanning line, the smaller angle steps is, the more scanning lines; Scanning radius: the semi-diameter relative to central point and the unit is ohm. Scanning precision: the min variant step of impendence during boundary scan (Note: do
- 60 -

Advance Distance Testing not set the min step of impendence to big, or it will not search the action boundary exactly, generally use 2% of scanning semi-diameter); Pre-fault time: firstly, output the nominal quantity of state before fault simulation, namely, the 3-phase symmetric voltage and nominal quantity of no-current of V=Vnom, and then enter the fault state when the pre-fault time ends. For the nominal impendence or distance protection, generally set it as zero in order to speedup the testing. But sometimes, it could be set as one of the time value, like 0.1 seconds, to test the dynamic impendence characteristics of relay, so the tested relay can return to the nominal state before this period of time. It is necessary to set time of nominal state before faults to protect the micro-computer, since the sudden-change quantity start mode is used and it needs several or over ten seconds to return. Max. fault time: the max output time of fault quantity for each fault simulation. The time value should be over the action time of protection relay to guarantee the test precision. Min action time: during the test, if the action time of relay is below the min action time, the action of relay will not be recognized, and it can search a lot of distance protection action boundary to match this time and the fault time. Example: in a triple-section distance, the action time of distance section II and distance section III is 0.5s and 1s respectively. In case of testing the impedance action characteristic, to prevent the influence of action of distance section III and distance section I over the boundary test, we select the fault time as 0.7s, which enable distance section II to act reliably while distance section III do not act. Take min action time as 0.3s, and remove the influence of distance section I in order to make sure the result is the impedance action boundary of distance section II.

Wire connection mode: adopt line voltage output mode for single-phase impendence relay test to enlarge the scope of impendence search. When the fault type are Phase A, B and C fault, we choose Uab, Ubc and Uca as the voltage output. If Vnom=80V, I=5A and zero-sequence compensation factor is zero, the max test impendence could reach 32 ohm (Z=2*80V/5A). Fixed value: the setting of fixed value Z1, Z2, Ph1 and Ph2 is used to define the action area of tested impendence relay, so that it can set the parameters of the central

Definition of Z1, Z2, Ph1 and Ph2

4.9.2 Test mode


1. Choose radial scanning mode. 2. Principle of setting scanning central point No matter the impendence characteristics of round or other shapes, the location of central point impendence value should be at the center of impendence center of relay, so the layout of boundary point could be more uniform. 3. Principle of setting the scan range The searched area is determined by central point impendence position; scan semi-diameter, start and final angel of scan range, etc. Scan area should totally cover the impendence action area of tested impendence relay, otherwise, it maybe can not find some boundary impendence value, but the search area should not be too bigger than action area to make test time very long. When the initial angle is at certain degree, the angle steps will decide the intensity of test line and the quantity of test points. If the radiation mode is used to test the impendence characteristics, it not only can be used to test the round characterized impendence action boundary but also other polygon or out-of-shape type, like apple type, ellipse and parallelogram, etc. 4. Test flow When the test is started, the test device enters the pre-fault state (0) and output the normal voltage and current. Before the pre-fault state ends, firstly make the short-circuit impendence equal to the scan center impendence, the simulated fault of the internal side of area enters the short-circuit state. If the protection action takes place at this point, and the action time is over the min action time, the test device shall choose the impendence value of external side of area or start end of scan line to simulate the short circuit course after returning and the pre-short-circuit course. If it does protect at this point, there should be an action boundary in the memory of scan line. Then change the impendence value at 10
- 62 -

Advance Distance Testing times of the test precision, to approach the central point along the scan line. If it does not protection or protect at the first point (scan central point) when the test starts, then there is no boundary impendence in the memory of scan line, so it will give up to search in this scan line to enter the next scan line. In order to save the searching time with the same test precision, choose the mode of impendence-turn-step to do impedance approach. Whenever each boundary value is found, will be marked on the corresponding scan line by system, then it continue to scan the impendence boundary of next angle until it finally finish within the given range. Shown as the Fig. 4.9-3 for whole search sequence:

Fig. 4.9-3 Figure of search

5. Notes Precision of test is not supposed to be over big, generally it is 2% of scan semi-diameter; With regard to micro-computer protection, pre-fault time or action return time should be longer than the reverting time of the whole group. For LZ series impendence relay: Pre-fault time: Fault time: Action returns time: Pre-fault time: Fault time: Action returns time: 0.0S 0.2S according to action time 0.2S 15.0S 0.2S according to action time 0.0S

In case of testing the impedance action characteristic, to prevent the influence of action of distance section III and distance section I over the boundary test, we select the fault time as 0.7s, which enable distance section II to act reliably while distance section III do not act. Take min action time as 0.3s, and remove the influence of distance section I in order to make sure the test result is the impedance action boundary of distance section II. Max scan impedance: while search the boundary impedance of corresponding current points, the starting searching point of scan line should be determined by max scan impedance and impedance angle, and should be out of the action area. Test precision: during searching the boundary impedance, Impedance angle: the impedance angle of max scan impedance, generally it is taken as the sensitive angle of impedance relay or protection relay. Setting of fixed value: The setting of fixed value of Z1, Z2, Ph1 and Ph2 is used to roughly decide the action area of the tested protection relay, providing the reference for the setting of central point impedance, scan semi-diameter, etc.

4.10.2 Testing device


Once the test starts, the test device enters the pre-fault state first (if this time value is set), and output the normal state voltage and current value. When the pre-fault states ends, choose short-circuit current as the nominal current and move the short-circuit impedance to the end of scan line, to calculate the short-circuit voltage and simulate the short-circuit fault. If it protects at the impedance of this point, the test device shall move the short-circuit impedance to the end of scan line after the return state (normal state value) and pre-fault state, and then starts the next short-circuit simulation course. If it does not protect at this point, then it show there is a boundary impedance in the area of this distance, and then reduce the short-circuit impedance gradually, until the boundary point impedance value is found. When each impedance value is found, the fault phase current shall increase or decrease according to the specified step and then start the search of impedance value of next action. If it does not protect at the impedance value of first point or protects at the impedance of second point, then it shows there is not impedance boundary value at this short-circuit current, and the search of impedance at this current shall stop.

4.11.1 Parameter description


Pre-fault time: before each sub-test is started, the tester output a section of pre-fault time (no-load state), to make sure the reliable reversion of protection contact and make sure that reclose brake is ready. So the pre-fault time should be longer than the time of reversion time of protection (including the charge time of the reclose brake), generally is should be around 20-25s. Fault time: the time from the moment when entering the fault state to the moment when test is over, covering the time for reclose and permanent trip. Reclose delay: the reclosed time of the circuit breaker simulator; the tester will wait for one section of the Binary I/O recloses delay after receiving reclose action signal, and then switch voltage volume and current volume to the post-reclose state. It can be set 0 S if the circuit breaker is being connected. Break delay: the trip action time of circuit breaker simulator; the tester will based on the connection of the binary output, whenever on receipt of the trip signal of the protection relay, will be allowed to enter the after-trip state of voltage/current. The start angle of Shortcircuit: the angle between the transient short-circuit voltage and short-circuit current before entering the fault Multiple of short-circuit impedance:

Distance Plus If the fixed multiple is 0.95, the protection should have reliable action; if 1.05, it should have no action, if 0.7, then it measures the action time of protection relay. The protection relay shall be reliable without action when setting the backward fault Setting of binary output: it is set according to the need of protection test. When testing the high frequency protection, it should connect the binary output to the high frequency signal contacts, and then to simulate the receiving time of the high frequency signal by using the closing time of binary output, and then high frequency protection starts and trips when the closing time of binary output is over. Definition of binary output: the binary output is set differently when test different times. In the circuit protection, the protection device has comprehensive reclosing (triggering per phase) and three-phase reclosing (triple mode). The binary output setting should be corresponding to the mode of reclosing. If it is triple mode, the binary output 1, 2 and 3 should be set as three tipping, and the output contact of protection can be connected to any one of 1, 2 and 3, and the reclosing contact connects to contact 4. If it is comprehensive type, the binary output 1, 2 and 3 should be connected to the output contact of triggering A, B and C, and the reclosing contact connects to contact 4.

4.12 Zero Sequence Protection


It is used to calibrate the fixed value of the line zero-sequence overcurrent protection, and it can test single test point or several testing points at one time, shown as Fig. 4.12-1.

Fig. 4.12-1 Zero Sequence Protection

4.12.1 Parameter description


Fault time: From the beginning of fault state to the end of the test, including the reclose time and trip time. Pre-fault time: Before each subtest item starts, the tester always outputs a certain period of time called *** (i.e. empty load state) which ensure the protective contacts is reliably drop off and that the reclose is ready. Thus, this time setting is bigger than the drop-off time of protective relay (include the charge time of reclose), usually its value is around 20s...25s. Break Delay: Its the trip time of the simulator circuit breaker. According to the connection of binary input, once the equipment receiving the switch-off signal sent by the protection device, the equipment will enter the voltage and current state after the delaying. Reclose delay: Its the reclose time of the simulator circuit breaker. When receiving the reclose action signal, the tester will wait for a period of binary I/O reclose delay, and then shift the quantities of voltage/current to the reclose state; it can be set

Zero Sequence to Os without the connection to the circuit breaker. The output mode of current 3I0: as to the single phase grounding fault, in theory, the zero-sequence current should correspond to the fault current. For example: phase A grounding, 3I0=Ia; phase B grounding, 3I0=IBb; phase C grounding, 3I0=Ic. However, because the output range of tester is limitedit is not suitable for the situation when the value of zero-sequence current 3IO is too big. So in order to simulate 3IO heavy current, it should use the parallel connection mode of two phases or three phases. Therefore, the procedure provides five output modes of 3IO current, they are the single phase output ( fault phase), parallel connection of phase A and B current output, parallel connection of phase B and C current output, parallel connection of phase C and A current output, and parallel connection of phase A, B and C current output. The fault current output and the theoretical situation is entirely consistent in the first mode, and the others only represent the synthetic modes of 3IO current, that is to say it only ensure the exactitude of 3IO current output (include direction and value), but ignore the correspondence with fault current. Take phase A grounding for example, Select 3I0 single, Ia=3I0Ib=0Ic=0; Select 3I0 A||BIa=3I0/2Ib=3I0/2Ic=0; Select 3I0 B||C Ia=0Ib=3I0/2Ic=3I0/2; Select 3IO C||A, Ia=3I0/2Ib=0Ic=3I0/2; Select 3I0 A||B||C, Ia=3I0/3Ib=3I0/3Ic=3I0/3. The value and the direction simulation of Ua, Ub, Uc and 3UO will ensure to be in compliance with the situations inferred by the theory in spite of the output mode of 3IO. Note: the 3IO current output mode only represent the supply mode, it doesnt represent the connection mode between current output terminal and fault phase current terminal. The connection between tester and protection device still obey the one-to-one correspondence rule. As for the equipment with 6 channel current output, terminal IA is connected with phase A current, terminal IB is connected with phase B current, and terminal IC is connected with phase C current when the current is output in three phase. Short-circuit initial angle: the angle of instance short-voltage and short-circuit before entering fault state. Multiple of zero-sequence current

- 79 -

Zero Sequence Fixed multiple 0.950, the protection will be reliable without action; Fixed multiple 1.050, the protection will be reliable with action; The protection device without direction should be reliable without action when setting the backward direction fault. Binary output setting: set the binary output according to the requirements of protection test. Connect the binary output with high-frequency signal contact when testing the high-frequency protection device. And use the close time of binary output to simulate the reception time of high-frequency signal. The high-frequency protection device will start and trip when closing time of binary output is over. Definition of binary output: There are different testing items in protection relay. Likewise, the corresponding binary I/O will have different settings. The modes of reclose restraint of the protection relay are namely comprehensive reclose (separate phase trip), triplet reclose (triplet mode); the setting of binary I/O shall be in accordance with the reclose modes. For instance, the protection is about triplet mode, binary input terminal 1, 2, 3 will be set as triplet, the output contacts of protective trip are connected with any one of the 1, 2, 3. Reclose contact connect to contact ; Take example with comprehensive mode protection, binary output terminal 1, 2, 3 are supposed to be connected with trip A, trip B, trip C of the output contacts of protective trip. Reclose contact connect to contact 4.

Fig. 4.13-1 Differential Protection Note: The module is suitable for testing split/separate phase differential protection.

Ratio restraint testing IA is used as the input current of transformer HV side or the input terminal current of generator and electromotor. IB is used as the input current of transformer HV side or the neutral terminal input current of generator and electromotor. IC is used as offset current ( it need to add offset current to counteract the current caused by non-testing phase of inside of protection relay when the protection device is using inner turn-over angle).

Calculation of ratio restraint coefficient K: K=Id/Ir. 6. Calculation of restraint coefficient Kxb of harmonic restraint: Kxbz=Ixb/Id, Ixb is harmonic current, Id is fundamental wave current. 7. Setting mode of balance coefficient: this module only supply the direct setting mode. 8. Restraint equation selection: select restraint equation according to different restraint mode and the coefficient K can be set at discretion. 9. Searching mode selection: it supplies two modes, one is unidirectional approach, and the other is bidirectional approach. In order to save testing time, suggest selecting the bidirectional approach. 10. Scan precision setting: the allowable minimum error during the scanning of action current when selecting the unidirectional approach.

4.13.2 Testing mode


1. Use normal differential to search ratio restraint characteristic Change the current amplitude of I side according to the II side to change the break current amplitude and action current. The procedure first output the start value of break current and action current, and then fix break current. As for each break current, the action current output from start value to end value changes with the step length. It will continue until the tester receives the action signal of differential relay or until the current reaching end value. And then search the next action current value of break current. 2. To search the ratio restraint characteristic by the use of microcomputer differential Regarding dynamic searching for the ratio restraint characteristic curve within the given range, please fill in the threshold value and quick-break current value of protection action current according to the protection fixed value sheet, and then set the start value and end value of the action current and break current. After testing, output the break current based on step while changing action current, and then search the action current corresponds to the action boundary point; and then the test is not over without the mentioned above till the end value of break current 3. Test ratio restraint fixed point by microcomputer differential When ratio restraint characteristic auto test on the break current of the fixed points, please first set the start value and end value of action current, then select the given current change in the box of break current, user can at most set seven break current at arbitrary value. The tester will search according to the given break current and the given action current during

Differential testing. 4. Use microcomputer differential to search harmonic restraint characteristic It can automatically make dynamic search the harmonic characteristic curve of the given range. First select the harmonic orders, then set the angle difference between harmonic and the fundamental wave, and then set the harmonic characteristic curve according to the protection setting sheet, finally set the start value and end value of action current. After starting test, gradually overlap the harmonic content in the output of action current, and search action current of harmonic heft correspond to the protection action boundary point, then repeat the operation method above until the action current corresponds to the protection boundary points that relate to the end value of differential current

4.13.3 Offset current


When the protection device is using inner turn-over angle mode, in order to counteract the current generated by non-testing phase (caused by arithmetic) of inside of protection relay. As to the transformer of Y/D-11 wire-connection, the angle difference between HV and LV side current is 30, if the two sides are both star-wired, there will also be 30 angle difference between the two sides. Set the secondary current of HV side to be IHa, IHb, IHc; and the LV side to be ILa, ILb, and ILc. In order to rectify the angel difference of the two sides, the protection device uses the calculation to rectify the angle in the HV side (Y side). IHa= (IHa- IHb)/ 3 IHb= (IHb- IHc)/ IHc= (IHc- IHa)/

3 3

Normally, we take the split phase testing. Take phase A for example, assumption: phase B and C current of HV side H side is IHb=0IHc=0 then the equation above can be predigested as follows: IHa=IHa/ 3 IHc=0-IHa/ 3 From the equation above, we can see when calculating current of phase C IHc=0-IHa / 3 , it may cause the malfunction of phase C differential protection, and effect the testing result of phase A. So you should add the compensation current to the LV side (D side) to counteract the current of HV side (Y side) during testing. Here are several wire-connection methods of compensation current under different kinds of transformer wire-connection mode for you to reference.

Frequency-modulated pulse-width: testing the frequency-modulated pulse-width 7. Auto adjustment test: If frequency difference and voltage difference does not meets the synchronizer's requirements, the synchronism device will send the signal of the voltage/frequency adjustment to increase or deduce the voltage/frequency according to the setting V/t &f/t until synchronization satisfaction, then sending closing signal and record the Leading angle and leading time right now. 8.

Synchronous time In auto-adjusting testingtesting will stop at the end of this time if getting no Synchronizer signal. 11.

After setting, the corresponding effect diagram can be real-time observed in the right diagram. 12. Inherent angle difference at both sides: This is the amount of various inherent angle differences, such as connection angle difference, transformer's Y/angle difference at both sides. The software will automatically compensate the secondary angle when testing. 13. Closed time of breaker: It is the Close delay of the breaker and the delay switch-on of the breaker after the synchronism device sends out the switch-on command.

4.16.2 Testing mode


1. Test method for Leading angle and leading time:
- 109 -

Synchronizer Before testing, at first set the voltage at the side to be in parallel to equal the voltage at the system side and set the frequency not to meet the synchronism conditions of the device. After the test begins, as the frequency difference is bit, during the rotation process of angle, the synchronism device will not send a closing command. Manually or automatically increase and decrease the frequency of the voltage at the side to be in parallel; when the frequency at the side to be in parallel is the temporary operation value, and when the angle enters the scope of operation, the synchronism device will send a closing command for the first time. Test instrument will calculate and record the leading angle and leading item when frequency difference meeting the synchronism conditions. The relationship between the leading angle and leading time: =t/Tw360 Where: Tw=1/f1-f2 t is the leading time is the leading angle

f1 is the frequency of the voltage at the side to be in parallel f2 is the frequency of the voltage at the system side. When automatically testing, the software always checks whether there is the closing pulse to come for the synchronism device in each cycle. If test instrument does not receive the closing pulse in a cycle, the frequency difference will be automatically reduced (if the frequency at the side to be in parallel is greater than the frequency at the system side, the frequency at the system side will be reduced), by the same way, it will not be adjusted for each circle until the synchronism device has the closing operation. The software calculates and records at this time the leading angle and leading time. 2. Test method for voltage-modulated pulse-width: Before testing, at first set the voltage at the side to be in parallel and not to meet the synchronism conditions (provided it is lower or higher than the voltage at the side to be in parallel), and the frequency meets but does not equals the conditions, so that the angle difference at both sides can be cyclically undrawn and closed. And the voltage increasing (decreasing) signal of the synchronism device is input Binary-Input a and b of Test instrument. When testing, as the voltage does not meet the synchronism conditions, the device will not sent the closing signal, but will send a cyclical "voltage increasing or (decreasing)" signal then test instrument can measure the voltage-modulated pulse-width and voltage-modulated cycle under the voltage difference. The voltage-modulated pulse-width has a linear relationship with the voltage difference. 3. Test method for frequency-modulated pulse-width:
- 110 -

Synchronizer Before testing, at first set the voltage at the side to be in parallel and the frequency not to meet the synchronism conditions (provided it is lower or higher than the frequency at the side to be in parallel). And the frequency increasing (decreasing) signal of the synchronism device is input Binary-Input c and h of Test instrument. When testing, as the frequency does not meet the synchronism conditions, the device will not sent the closing signal, but will send a cyclical "voltage increasing or (decreasing) " signal When the test instrument can measure the frequency-modulated pulse-width and frequency -modulated cycle under the frequency difference. The frequency-modulated pulse-width has a linear relationship with the frequency difference. 4. Auto adjustment test: Before the test, the set amplitude value and frequency at the side to be in parallel are far away from the difference value at the system side and do not meet the synchronism conditions, when testing, the synchronism device will send voltage increasing, voltage decreasing or frequency increasing and frequency decreasing signal to the test instrument. Test instrument will not adjust the frequency and voltage according to the received signal and automatically by the change rate to "satisfy the synchronism conditions" until voltage difference, frequency difference and angle difference meet the synchronism conditions and the synchronism device sends the closing command. Test instrument will record the closing voltage difference, frequency difference and angle difference. During the test, when the frequency difference or voltage difference meets the synchronism requirements, the qualified light of the voltage difference or the qualified light of the frequency difference in the synchronism device is on, when the angle difference also meets the requirements, the synchronism device will send the closing signal, as are the three operation conditions necessary of the synchronism: and the frequency at the side to be in parallel is basically the same as the frequency at the system side, the voltages are the same basically and phase difference is less than a fixed value.

Fault Recurrence

4.20 Fault Recurrence


This testing module can be used to play COMTRADE standard format data file and realize Fault Recurrence in The tester.

Fig. 4.20-1 Interface of Fault Recurrence

Testing Description Use the tester to play the data file of COMTRADE (Common Format for Transient Data Exchange) format to achieve fault recurrence. Have the following Property: 1. Playback characteristic: Support the data file of COMTRADE format Adjust the setting of output amplitude value of voltage and current of every channel in proportion with their percent Improve the sampling rate of playback data by interpolation counting of the original record data. With key-press triggering and GPS triggering two triggering modes. Repeatedly playback of one-section of data by setting the times of repeating, the starting time and duration. Arithmetic operation of add and subtraction can be done on the same type of channel data to generate a new channel data by the same type of channel data. Define its output ranges for the playing data.

- 133 -

Fault Recurrence 2. The data files relate to COMTRADE format COMTRADE format data file includes three types of files with three same names but their suffix name is different: direct file (*HDR) to provide users with a description sample of additional information in order to better understand the transient records. Direct/boot file is not controlled by application program. Configuration file (*CFG) provides the necessary information for computer program to read data files. Configuration file is an ASC II format file, including the following information: Channel type and channel number Station name and ID number Circuit frequency50Hz or 60Hz Channel name, unit and change factor Sampling rate and the number of sampling dots at the corresponding sampling rate Date and time for the first data Date and time of triggering File typeASC II or BINARY Data file*DATcontains the actual numerical value of transient data.

4.20.1 Parameter description


Analog Output: Output channel can be selected, and output amplitude value can be adjusted by the setting of the ratio of voltage to current in each channel Channel options: The tester can output four-channel voltage and three-channel current. Press the pull-key in the icon of channel option, all voltage channels are listed correspond to the voltage values; and all current channels are listed that correspond to current values. The each channel that corresponds to its output value will be selected or not according to the needs of the customers. Output setting: when testing, the waveform of voltage and current start output at the given moment. Max. value and min. value: display the maximum value and minimum value of the waveform in the chosen channel; Suppose that the recorded waveform is primary value, and it can set the conversion of the primary and secondary transformer ratio on the page of the analog signal attributes, showing the maximum value and the minimum value of the conversion.

- 134 -

Fault Recurrence Proportion: Output the waveform in the corresponding channel by the given proportion. If the maximum value and the minimum value of the channel exceed the output range of the tester, they can be further adjusted by the setting of proportion. Triggering condition and repeat sections: there are two kinds of triggering modes. It can be repeatedly played by the setting of someone section data. Triggering condition No triggering: without external triggering condition, it will directly output according to the setting of waveform. Key-press triggering: set the wait hour, it will repeatedly output at the given interval when it is the wait hour; It will continuously output the subsequent waveform till user press down the key-press triggering. GPS triggering: set the wait hour, it will repeatedly output at the given interval when it is the wait hour; It will continuously output the subsequent waveform till the tester receives the GPS signal. Wait hour: When choosing key-press triggering, GPS triggering and Binary Input triggering, if the triggering signal is not received, the waveform will be repeatedly output by the corresponding given repeated interval at the hour, waiting for triggering signal. Repeat section: The setting of repeat outputting can be chosen if someone section of waveform is required to output repeatedly. Repeat start hour: the waveforms are output repeatedly at the time Repeat number: it is the number of repeated waveforms. Sampling rate: to display the sampling rate of the wave-recorded file, some recorded files lists many sampling rates; these ones will list one by one, and list the number of sampling points under each sampling rate. Interpolation operation: Some waveform-record files have excessive few sampling points, which may cause a bad continuity of the waveform when playing back. So, the output waveform is guaranteed through interpolation, or a wave-recording file has a number of sampling rates, which may be unified through interpolation. The front item interpolation of Newton and offset differential fitting algorithm are used for the mode of interpolation, and the interpolation may not be presented. First, the interpolation mode is to put the data into DSP to calculate interpolation, and its advantages are: no memory space occupied and waveform output for a long time; the drawback is the less interpolation points. Second, the interpolation method is calculated to interpolate by the PC, and the advantages are more
- 135 -

Fault Recurrence interpolation points and good waveform; the drawbacks are the memory space occupied and short time for playing. Note: When a wave-recording file has a number of sampling rates, they must be unified into the same sampling rate to play, at this time only the second method can be used to interpolate by the waveform with the most of sampling rates. After interpolating, the sampling rate and the longest output time will be automatically calculated by the sampling rate and interpolation points with the software. Waveform processing View: the view of the graphical recorded data of COMTRADE format, on this basis, the waveform data of each channel can be set and edited, while providing convenient analysis tool on waveform to obtain the detailed information.

4.21.2 System swing characteristic analysis


Swing simulation takes two-machine system as the model. When the power system swings, generally all units can be divided into two units, to analyze the characteristic by two-machine equivalence system, and its brief equivalence network see the Fig. 4.21-2, of which ZM, ZN are respectively the equivalence impedance of generatrix M side, N side; ZL is the MN line impedance; EM, EN, respectively are the equivalence electric potential at P, Q side, with the angle ; ZS is the equivalence impedance of the system, ZS=ZM+ZN+ZL. See the figure below.

Fig. 4.21-3Two-machine system sketch map

In the process of simulating the swing of the system, the voltage amplitude value of two-generator will be unchanged. Take voltage En angle of the system as a reference point at the system side; fix it at 0, and angle of voltage Em oscillates to change at the generator side. The program automatically calculates three-phase voltage and current of A0 point in the process of swing, and outputs the protection to be tested through Test instrument. The Property of the protection will be observed and recorded. The diagram above is two-machine system, the wiring impedance is ZL, power EM impedance is ZM, and EN impedance is ZN. If the system is integrated with impedance ZS=ZM+ZL+ZN, the relationship between the measuring impedance ZA and power angle at the installation A of the protection is shown in the diagram below. In the circumstance of swing, when |EN|=|EM|, ZA trail is the perpendicular bisector of ZS, that is the curve 1; when |EN|>|EM|, ZA trail is the impedance round whose center is in the first quadrant, that is the curve 2; and when |EN|<|EM|, ZA trail is the impedance round whose center is in the third quadrant, that is the curve 3.
