Identifying runtime errors

1. Check the error origin from IED's internal event list Main menu /Diagnostics /IED status /
General .
2. Reboot the IED and recheck the supervision events to see if the fault has cleared.
3. In case of persistent faults, contact Hitachi Power grids for corrective actions.
8.1.3

Identifying blocked functions

1. Check the list of blocked functions from the LHMI under Main menu/Diagnostics /IED status/
Function overview .
2. In case of persistent faults, contact Hitachi Power grids for corrective actions.
8.1.4

Identifying communication errors

Communication errors are normally communication interruptions or synchronization message errors
due to communication link breakdown.
• Check the IEC61850 communication status in internal event list in Main menu/
Diagnostics /IED Status/General .

Troubleshooting

Check the general IED status in Main menu /Diagnostics /IED status /General for a
faulty hardware module.
Check the history of changes in internal event list in Main menu /Diagnostics /Internal
events .
Inspect the IED visually to find any physical error causes.
If you can find some obvious physical damage, contact Hitachi Power grids for repair or
replacement actions.
Check that the error is not caused by external origins.
Remove the wiring from the IED and test the input and output operation with an external
test device.
If the problem remains, contact Hitachi Power grids for repair or replacement actions.
