Bay control REC670 2.1 IEC
EF4PTOC can also be used to provide a system back-up
for example, in the case of the primary protection being
out of service due to communication or voltage
transformer circuit failure.
Directional operation can be combined together with
corresponding communication logic in permissive or
blocking teleprotection scheme. Current reversal and
weak-end infeed functionality are available as well.
Residual current can be calculated by summing the three
phase currents or taking the input from neutral CT
Four step negative sequence overcurrent protection
NS4PTOC
Four step negative sequence overcurrent protection
(NS4PTOC) 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.
The directional function is voltage polarized.
NS4PTOC can be set directional or non-directional
independently for each of the steps.
NS4PTOC can be used as main protection for
unsymmetrical fault; phase-phase short circuits, phase-
phase-earth short circuits and single phase earth faults.
NS4PTOC can also be used to provide a system backup
for example, in the case of the primary protection being
out of service due to communication or voltage
transformer circuit failure.
Directional operation can be combined together with
corresponding communication logic in permissive or
blocking teleprotection scheme. The same logic as for
directional zero sequence current can be used. Current
reversal and weak-end infeed functionality are available.
Sensitive directional residual overcurrent and power
protection SDEPSDE
In isolated networks or in networks with high impedance
earthing, the earth fault current is significantly smaller
than the short circuit currents. In addition to this, the
magnitude of the fault current is almost independent on
the fault location in the network. The protection can be
selected to use either the residual current or residual
power component 3U0·3I0·cos j, for operating quantity
with maintained short circuit capacity. There is also
available one nondirectional 3I0 step and one 3U0
overvoltage tripping step.
No specific sensitive current input is needed. SDEPSDE
can be set as low 0.25% of IBase.

Thermal overload protection, one time constant
LCPTTR/LFPTTR
The increasing utilization of the power system closer to
the thermal limits has generated a need of a thermal
overload protection for power lines.
A thermal overload will often not be detected by other
protection functions and the introduction of the thermal
overload protection can allow the protected circuit to
operate closer to the thermal limits.
The three-phase current measuring protection has an I
characteristic with settable time constant and a thermal
memory. The temperature is displayed in either Celsius
or Fahrenheit, depending on whether the function used
is LCPTTR (Celsius) or LFPTTR (Fahrenheit).
An alarm level gives early warning to allow operators to
take action well before the line is tripped.
Estimated time to trip before operation, and estimated
time to reclose after operation are presented.
Thermal overload protection, two time constant
TRPTTR
If a power transformer reaches very high temperatures
the equipment might be damaged. The insulation within
the transformer will experience forced ageing. As a
consequence of this the risk of internal phase-to-phase
or phase-to-earth faults will increase.
The thermal overload protection estimates the internal
heat content of the transformer (temperature)
continuously. This estimation is made by using a
thermal model of the transformer with two time
constants, which is based on current measurement.
Two warning levels are available. This enables actions in
the power system to be done before dangerous
temperatures are reached. If the temperature continues
to increase to the trip value, the protection initiates a
trip of the protected transformer.
The estimated time to trip before operation is
presented.
Breaker failure protection CCRBRF
Breaker failure protection (CCRBRF) ensures a fast
backup tripping of the surrounding breakers in case the
own breaker fails to open. CCRBRF can be current-
based, contact-based or an adaptive combination of
these two conditions.
A current check with extremely short reset time is used
as check criterion to achieve high security against
inadvertent operation.
Contact check criteria can be used where the fault
current through the breaker is small.
