Setting Guidelines - ABB Relion SAM600 Applications Manual

Section 5
Monitoring
Disturbance report function is a common name for several functions; Indications (IND), Event
recorder (ER), Event list (EL), Disturbance recorder (DR).
Disturbance report function is characterized by great flexibility as far as configuration,
starting conditions, recording times, and storage capacity are concerned. Thus, disturbance
report is not dependent on the operation of protective functions, and it can record
disturbances that were not discovered by protective functions for one reason or another.
Disturbance report can be used as an advanced stand-alone disturbance recorder.
Every disturbance report recording is saved in the IED. The same applies to all events, which
are continuously saved in a ring-buffer. Local HMI can be used to get information about the
recordings, and the disturbance report files may be uploaded in the PCM600 using the
Disturbance handling tool, for report reading or further analysis (using WaveWin, that can be
found on the PCM600 installation CD). The user can also upload disturbance report files using
FTP or MMS (over 61850–8–1) clients.
If the IED is connected to a station bus (IEC 61850-8-1), the disturbance recorder is available.

Setting guidelines

The setting parameters for the Disturbance report function DRPRDRE are set via PCM600.
It is possible to handle up to 10 analog and 352 binary signals, either internal signals or signals
coming from external inputs. The binary signals are identical in all functions that is,
Disturbance recorder (DR), Event recorder (ER), Indication (IND) and Event list (EL) function.
User-defined names of binary input signals are set using PCM600. The binary signals appear
with their user-defined names. The name is used in all related functions (Disturbance recorder
(DR), Event recorder (ER), Indication (IND) and Event list (EL)).

blocks. Event list (EL), Event recorder (ER) and Indication (IND) uses information from the
binary input function blocks (BxRBDR). Disturbance report function acquires information from
both AxRADR and BxRBDR.
