Distance protection (ZM15)


Application

Xph-e

Xph-ph

Distance protection provides fast and reliable protection for overhead lines and power cables in all kinds of power networks. For each independent distance protection zone, full scheme design provides continuous measurement of impedance separately in three independent phase-phase measuring loops as well as in three independent phase-earth measuring loops. Phase-earth distance protection serves as basic earth-fault protection in networks with directly or low-impedance earthed networks. Together with an independent phase-preference-logic, it also serves as selective protection function at cross-country faults in isolated or resonantly earthed networks. Independent reactive reach setting for phasephase and for phase-earth measurement secures high selectivity in networks with different protective relays used for short-circuit and earth-fault protection.

Schematic presentation of the operate characteristic for one distance protection zone in forward direction

The distance protection zones can operate, independently of the others, in directional (forward or reverse) or non-directional mode. This makes it suitable, together with different communication schemes, for the protection of power lines and cables in complex network configurations, such as double-circuit, parallel lines, multiterminal lines, etc. Zone one, two and three has a built-in option for a phase selective operation.

characteristic angle. The earth-return compensation factor for the earth-fault distance protection is calculated automatically by the terminal itself. Voltage polarisation for directional measurement uses continuous calculation and updating of the positive sequence voltage for each measuring loop separately. This secures correct directionality of the protection on different evolving faults within the complex network configurations. Positive-sequence memory voltage secures reliable directional operation on close-up three-phase faults. The distance protection function blocks are independent of each other for each zone. Each function block comprises a number of different functional inputs and outputs, which are freely configurable to different external functions, logic gates, timers and binary inputs and outputs. This makes it possible to influence the operation of the complete measuring zone or only its trip function by the operation of the fuse-failure function, the power-swing-detection function, etc.

Different digital signal processors calculate the impedance as seen for different measuring loops in different distance protection zones. The results are updated each millisecond for all measuring loops and each distance protection zone separately. Measurement of the impedance for each fault follows the differential equation, which considers a complete line replica impedance, as presented schematically on Fig. 2.

Application

The general fault criteria is an independent impedance measuring function, which serves as an overall fault detection and/or phase selection element in all kinds of networks. Observe that the GFCn function is not used as start function, because full scheme measurement is utilised for the distance protection zones. The GFC function is specially suitable in cases when the fault resistance to be detected exceeds the minimum expected load impedance. The shaped operate characteristic in the impedance plane (see Fig. 3) prevents the operation of the impedance measuring elements for low load impedances and at the same time allows coverage of higher fault resistance with remote infeed of the fault current.

Setting of all line parameters, such as positive sequence resistance and reactance as well as zero-sequence resistance and reactance, together with expected fault resistance for phase-phase and phase-earth faults, are independent for each zone. The operate characteristic is thus automatically adjusted to the line

The power swing detection function detects power swings with a periodic swing time as low as 200 ms (i.e. slip frequency as high as 10% of the rated frequency on a 50 Hz basis). It detects swings under normal system conditions as well as during the dead-time of the single-pole reclosing cycle.
Design

General fault criteria - schematic presentation of the operate characteristic in the impedance plane

Independent measurement for each fault loop secures reliable phase selection and correct operation for complex network faults, such as simultaneous faults on parallel circuits, evolving faults, etc. It also serves, together with an independent phase-preference-logic, as a selective protection function on crosscountry faults in isolated or high-impedance earthed networks.Independent reactive reach setting for phase-phase and for phase-earth measurement secures high selectivity in networks with different protective relays used for short-circuit and earth-fault protection.
Design

The operation of the PSD function is based on the measurement of the transition time that the power swing transient impedance needs to pass the impedance area between two impedance measuring characteristics (known as Z/ t measurement). The impedance measuring principle is the same as the one used for the distance protection zones (see Fig. 2). The transient impedance time is measured in all three phases separately and one-out-of-three or two-out-of-three operating modes can be selected permanently or according to the specific system operate conditions. The use of different timers for initial and consecutive swings secures a high degree of differentiation between power swing and fault conditions. Built-in logic circuits and configurable functional inputs makes it possible to combine the function with other functions and conditions, as well as to use it in the same way as with older distance relays.

The basic operate principle is the same as for the basic distance protection zones (see Fig. 2). It is possible to set the reactive reach in forward and reverse direction for phase-phase and for phase-earth measurement separately and independently of each other. Setting of the resistive reach can also be different for phase-phase and for phase-earth measurement. The user can program the influence of the GFC function on the operation of the distance protection zones used. The GFC function can prevent the operation of the distance protection zones with a reach longer than the reach

Scheme communication logic (ZCOM)


Application

To achieve fast fault clearing for a fault on the part of the line not covered by the instantaneous zone 1, the stepped distance protection function can be supported with logic, utilising communication channels. One communication channel, capable of transmitting an on/ off signal, is required in each direction.

ABB

Line distance protection terminal

REL 511
1MDB06309-YN

Functions (contd)

Depending on whether a reverse or forward directed impedance zone is used to issue the send signal, the communication schemes are divided in Blocking and Permissive schemes, respectively. This function can support any scheme communication requirements.

configurations where more than one circuit breaker can energise the protected line at one line end.
Design

Current reversal and weak end infeed logics (ZCAL)


Application

This function is a complement to the ZCOM or to the ZC1P function. In interconnected systems, the fault current can change direction when circuit breakers open to clear the fault. The permissive overreach scheme should have a current reversal logic which, when activated, will prevent unwanted operation in case of current reversal. If the infeed of the fault current at the remote end is too low to operate the forward directed measuring element, no carrier signal will be obtained from the remote end when there is a fault on the line and the communication scheme will not operate properly. This will be the case if the zero sequence source at the remote line end is too high, e.g. if the line circuit breaker is open. The permissive communication scheme should therefore include a weak end infeed logic which, when activated, reflects the carrier signal and thereby secures tripping. It can also be used to trip the local circuit breaker in cases when fault current distribution prevent carrier signal.

The function is active for one second after the breaker closing conditions have been reported by the external auxiliary contact or by the DLD function (automatic mode). The output signal will be generated if the fault has been detected within the non-directional reach of the selected distance protection zone. Configurable function inputs and outputs make it possible to configure different use of the function. Note: The presence of the deadline-detection function is absolutely required, if the function shall operate in the automatic mode.

Local acceleration logic (ZCLC)


Application

To achieve fast fault clearing for faults on the whole line, also in cases where no communication channel is available, local acceleration logic is used. The logic can be controlled either by the autorecloser or by the loss of the load current.

Current, phase wise


Instantaneous phase overcurrent protection (IOC)
Application

Automatic switch onto fault logic (SOTF)


Application

The switch-onto-fault protection secures high-speed operation of the distance protection on energising of faulty or shortcircuited (earthed for safety reasons) power lines. Two operating modes are available for the detection of a breaker closing condition: Use of an auxiliary contact from a line CB control switch or the operation of a built-in dead-line-detection (DLD) function. The second mode is highly recommended for busbar

Different system conditions, such as source impedance and the position of the faults on long transmission lines, influence the fault currents to a great extent. The IOC function, with low overreaching of the measuring elements, secure very short operate times, down to 10 ms and selective tripping for close-in faults on long power lines, where short fault clearing times are extremely important in maintaining system stability
Design

The IOC function comprises a three phase instantaneous overcurrent protection. When single-pole tripping is required, the single and/or three-pole trip logic allows for phase selective starting signals from the function.

Time delayed phase overcurrent protection (TOC)


Application

Current, residual (earth fault)


Current residual
Application

The time-delayed overcurrent protection operates in different system conditions for currents exceeding the pre-set value and remain high for longer than the delay time set on the corresponding timer. The function can also be used as supervision and fault detector for some other protection functions, to increase the security of a complete protection system. It can serve as a reserve function for the line distance protection, if activated under fuse failure conditions which disables the operation of the line distance protection.
Design

In case of single-phase to earth faults, the primary fault resistance will vary with the network conditions and location of the fault. In many cases the fault resistance is much higher than the resistance that can be covered by an impedance measuring distance function. Earth faults with high fault resistance can be detected by measuring the residual current (3Io). Hence, the current residual functions can be used as complement to the impedance measuring distance function for sensitive earth fault detection. To prevent unwanted operation when energising a directly grounded power transformer, the functions are provided with 2nd harmonic restraint blocking feature. The inverse time delayed function is provided with minimum operate current and minimum operate time for improved selectivity in certain applications. The instantaneous and time-delayed functions can be made directional together with logics for communication scheme cooperation, weak-end-infeed and current reversal.
Design

The TOC function comprises a three phase time-delayed overcurrent protection. Phase selective starting signals are available from the function.

Breaker failure protection (BFP)


Application

The breaker failure protection provides backup protection in case of failure of the breaker to trip and clear the fault as requested by the object protection. It is obtained by checking that fault current persists after a brief time from the operation of the object protection.
Design

The breaker failure protection is initiated by the trip commands from the protection functions, either internal to the terminal or from external commands through binary inputs. The start can be single-phase or three-phase. The operate values of the three current measuring elements are settable within a wide setting range. The measurement is stabilised against the dc-transient that can cause unwanted operation with saturated current transformers. Time measurement is individual for each phase. Two independent timers are available, T1 for repeated tripping of own breaker and T2 which operates trip logic for adjacent breakers.

Following current residual functions are selectable; 1. Instantaneous 2. Time delayed; - Independent time delay 3.

The 4-step earth fault overcurrent protection has three current steps with independent time delay and a fourth current step with independent time delay or inverse time characteristics. For all four steps, one of the following modes can be selected independently of other steps: Non-directional overcurrent function without second harmonic restraint Non-directional overcurrent function with second harmonic restraint Forward directional overcurrent function without second harmonic restraint Forward directional overcurrent function with second harmonic restraint Overcurrent function without second harmonic restraint, with blocking from the reverse direction measuring element Overcurrent function with second harmonic restraint, with blocking from the reverse direction measuring element

function or by an auxiliary contact detecting the open position of a line isolator. The function has phase-selective indication.

Time delayed overvoltage protection (TOV)


Application

Different system conditions might increase the system voltage and cause damage to exposed primary and secondary equipment. The overvoltage protection detects such voltage changes and initiates different measures to the power system. Both instantaneous and time-delayed operation of the overvoltage function are available.
Design

Voltage
Time delayed undervoltage protection (TUV)
Application

The function measures the phase voltages of a three-phase system and calculates the residual (3U0) voltage. It initiates the corresponding output signals if the measured phase or the residual voltages exceed the pre-set value (starting) and remains high longer than the time delay set on the corresponding timers (trip). The function detects the phases which caused the operation.

Power system supervision


Broken conductor check (BRC)
Application

The time-delayed undervoltage protection function is applicable in all situations, where reliable detection of low phase voltages is necessary. The function can also be used as a supervision and fault detection function for some other protection functions, to increase the security of a complete protection system.
Design

The function operates as a three-phase voltage measuring function, which issues an output signal if any of the three measured phase voltages falls below the pre-set value. The operation can be delayed by a built-in timer with settable time delay. The function can be disabled by various external conditions, for example by the operation of a fuse-failure

The broken-conductor check function detects non-symmetrical current conditions in the three phases. The BRC function is especially suitable for the detection of broken conductors on protected power lines and cables (series faults) without the presence of the additional short circuits (phase-earth or phase-phase faults). It will also detect interruptions in secondary current circuits.
Design

The function measures all three-phase currents and operates when the ratio between the minimum of measured phase currents and the maximum phase current falls below the set value. The phase current must be higher than 20% of the terminal rated current.

Functions (contd)

Loss of voltage check (LOV)


Application

The loss-of-voltage function is suitable for use in networks with automatic restoration function. The LOV function initiates a threepole tripping of a circuit breaker, if all three phase voltages fall below the set value for longer than 7 seconds. The operation of the function is supervised by the fuse-failure function and the information about the closed position of an associated circuit breaker.

the terminal. Different output signals can be used to block, in the case of faults in the ac voltage secondary circuits, the operation of the distance protection and other voltagedependent functions, such as the synchrocheck function, the undervoltage protection function, etc. Negative-sequence based measurement is recommended in isolated or high-impedance earthed systems. Zero-sequence based measurement is recommended in directly- or low-impedance earthed systems.
Design

Overload supervision (OVLD)


Application

The overload protection prevents excessive loading of power lines. Its operation is based on the measurement of the maximum phase current and its duration, which must not exceed the pre-set values. The operate current and the operate time are settable within a wide range.

The function continuously measures the zerosequence and/or the negative-sequence voltage and current in three-phase ac voltage circuits. It operates if the measured zero and/or negative-sequence voltage increases over the pre-set operate value, and if the measured zero and/or negative-sequence current remains below the pre-set operate value. Two function output signals are available. The first depends directly on the voltage and current measurement. The second depends on the operation of the dead-line detection function, to prevent unwanted operation of the distance protection if the line has been deenergised and energised under fuse-failure conditions. A special function input serves the connection to the auxiliary contact of the MCB (when used), to secure correct operation of the function on simultaneous interruption of all three measured phase voltages.

Secondary system supervision


Current circuit supervision (CTSU)
Application

Wrong information on current flowing in a protected element might influence the security (line differential protection) or dependability (line distance protection) of a complete protection system. The current circuit supervision function, as built in REx 5xx terminals, detects different types of faults in CT secondary circuits and influence the operation of corresponding main protection functions.
Design

Control
Command control (16 signals)
Application

The function compares the 3I0 secondary currents from two different sets of current instrument transformers or different cores of the same instrument transformer. The function issues an output signal when the difference is greater than set value. The signal can be configured to block different protection functions or initiate the alarm.

Fuse failure supervision (FUSE)


Application

The terminals may be provided with 16 output functions that can be controlled either from a Substation Automation system or from the built-in HMI. The output functions can be used, for example, to control highvoltage apparatuses in switchyards. For local control functions, the built-in HMI can be used. Together with the configuration logic circuits, the user can govern pulses or steady output signals for control purposes within the terminal or via binary outputs.

The fuse-failure-supervision function continuously supervises the ac voltage measuring circuits between the voltage transformers and

Functions (contd)

Synchro-check and energising check (SYNX)


Application

Autoreclosing (ARxx)
Application

The synchro-check function is used for controlled interconnection of a line in an already interconnected network. When used, the function gives an enable signal at satisfactory voltage conditions across the breaker that is to be closed. The synchro-check function measures the voltages on the busbar side and the line side. It operates and permits closing of the circuit-breaker when the set conditions are met, with respect to the voltage difference (UDiff), the phase-angle difference (PhaseDiff), and the frequency difference (FreqDiff). The energising condition can be set to allow energising in one, or the other, or both directions, e.g. live busbar and dead line. It is possible to have different energising settings for a manual close command and an autoreclose command.
Design

The reclosing function can be selected to perform single-, two- and/or three-phase reclosing from eight single-shot or multi-shot reclosing programs. The three-phase autoreclose open time can be selected to give either high-speed autoreclosing or delayed autoreclosing. Three-phase autoreclosing can be performed with or without the use of the synchronism check or energising function.
Design

The autoreclosing function co-operates with the line protection functions, the trip function, the circuit breaker and the synchro-check function. It can also be influenced by other protection functions through binary input signals.The autoreclosing is a logical function built up by logical elements.

Logic
Three-pole trip logic (TRIP)
Application

The synchro-check for double busbar arrangements includes the voltage selection function. From the auxiliary contacts of the breakers and disconnectors, the terminal can select the right voltage for the synchronism and energising function. The function is also designed to allow manual closing when both sides of the breaker are dead.

The function is intended for use when only a simultaneous three-pole tripping of the circuit breaker(s) is required.
Design

Phasing
Note: This function is not separately available. It is an addition to the Synchro-check and energising check described above.
Application

Phasing of network breakers is to be performed, together with synchro-check, when two asynchronous systems are going to be connected in order to avoid stress on the network and its components. The phasing function compensates for measured slip frequency as well as the circuit-breaker closing delay.
Design

Two functional inputs initiate the outgoing trip command. The first will initiate the trip command only if the function is not blocked or its operation has not been switched off or the terminal is not in a test mode. The second functional input overrides all the above conditions. It is intended for use together with station protection functions, such as breaker failure protection or transfer trip commands received from the remote ends of protected power lines.

Single- or two-pole trip logic (TRIP)


Application

The phasing function also includes the synchro-check function. The phasing function is used when the difference in frequency is less than the set value of the frequency difference for phasing and larger than the set value for synchro-check.

TRIP operates in single-pole trip mode for single-phase faults, in two-pole operating mode for two-phase faults (with or without earth) and in three-pole trip mode for threephase faults. It is also possible to achieve three-pole tripping for both one-phase and two-phase faults.

ABB

Line distance protection terminal

REL 511
1MDB06309-YN
Page 10

Functions (contd)

The function is applicable for all terminals which have built-in phase selection functionality and is used in applications where singlepole tripping is required for single-phase faults due to system stability reasons. The two-pole operating mode can be used on double-circuit parallel lines with single-pole breakers.
Design

Additional configurable logic


Application

Configurable logic is included in basic. Additional logic circuits including more AND/OR gates are also available as an option. With this logic the user can configure different logical functions in the terminals to suit special requirements for different applications.

Special functional inputs are provided for the initiation of a single, two and three-pole trip command. Decision to initiate outgoing trip signals in different phases depends on a presence of corresponding phase selective signals on specially provided functional inputs. Additional logic circuits secure a three-pole final trip command in the absence of the required phase selection signals. The function is equipped with logic circuits, which secure correct operation on evolving faults as well as after the reclosing on persistent faults. Special function inputs are provided to override the internal conditions and initiate an instantaneous three-pole trip command. These inputs could be initiated by different external functions, such as station breaker failure protection, transfer trip from the remote end line terminal, etc.

Communication channel test logic (CCHT)


Application

Many applications in secondary systems require testing of some functionality with confirmed information about the result of the test. Channel test function perform testing of communication (power line carrier) channels in applications, where it is not possible to monitor them continuously by some other means.
Design

Pole discordance logic, contact based (PD)


Application

The logic initiates the sending of an impulse (carrier send signal), which starts the operation of different external functions and checks the feedback from the external function. It reports the successful or non-successful response on initiated test. It is also possible to abort the test with an external signal, which overrules all internal process.

Breaker pole position discordance can occur on operation of a breaker with independent operating gears for the three poles. The reason may be an interruption in the closing or trip coil circuit, or a mechanical failure resulting in a stuck breaker pole. A discordance caused by one pole failing to close or open can be tolerated for a limited time, for instance during a single-phase trip-reclosing cycle.
Design

Binary signal transfer to remote end (RTC)


Application

The binary signal transfer function is preferably used for sending communication scheme related signals, transfer trip and/or other binary signals required at the remote end. Up to 32 freely selectable binary signals, internal or external to the terminals, can be transmitted in both directions over a protected line.
Design

The operation of the pole discordance protection is based on checking the position of the breaker auxiliary contacts. Three parallel normally-open contacts in series with three normally-closed contacts in parallel for the respective breaker poles form a condition of pole discordance, connected to a binary input dedicated for the purpose.

Together with the binary signals internal to the terminal, the function is utilising binary inputs and outputs. The function can be provided with various 56/64 kbit/s communication modules for fibreoptic or galvanic connection. For more information about the available communication alternatives, see Remote end data communication.

Binary signal interbay communication


Application

Fault locator (FLC)


Application

One receiving function block for 16 binary signals and with fast execution time is used to receive information over the LON bus from other REx 5xx terminals. The other terminals must have a corresponding Event function block to send the information. Additional 79 receiving blocks with slower execution time are also available as an option.

An accurate fault locator is an essential complement to the line protection. The fault locator provides distance to the fault together with information about the measuring loop that has been used in the calculation. Possibility of recalculation with changed parameter settings exists. Information on the last 10 disturbances are available. The fault locator algorithm compensates the effect of the load currents, the apparent fault resistance and zero sequence mutual impedance.

Monitoring
Disturbance recorder (DREP)
Application

Trip value recorder (TRVAL)


Application

The disturbance recording function is an important part of a station monitoring system, which enables the evaluation of different events within the power system. The highperformance disturbance recorder can memorise up to 10 analogue channels and 48 binary signals (internal signals to the terminal and/or external signals connected to the binary inputs of the terminal). Any of the recorded analogue channels and binary signals can be programmed to start a recording. Furthermore, analogue channels are programmable for over- and under-functions and the binary signals can start recording on transition from a logical 0 to a logical 1 and vice versa. Pre-fault, post-fault and limit time can be set in wide ranges. Collection of disturbance records is possible locally as well as remotely, using HMI software. Evaluation of the disturbances can be done in the program, type REVAL.

Information on the actual primary and secondary phasors of the voltages and currents are available in the trip value recorder. The prefault and fault values of the applicable voltages and currents are recorded with their phase relations for the last 10 disturbances.

Increased measuring accuracy for U, I, P, Q


Application

To reach a high accuracy in the measurements, a factory calibration of the five current and the five voltage input transformers is made.

Metering
Pulse counter logic
Application

Event recorder (EVR)


Application

An event recording function is available. It presents in a logical order, starting and tripping signals that have occurred in the terminal. Up to 150 time-tagged events for each of the last 10 recorded disturbances are stored. Also internal events, such as setting changes, are stored in the event recorder.

The pulse counter function provides the Substation Automation system with the number of pulses, which have been accumulated in the terminal during a defined period of time, for calculation of, for example, energy values. The pulses are captured on the Binary input module that is read by the Pulse counter function. The number of pulses in the counter is then reported via LON to the station HMI or read via SPA as a service value. The normal use for this function is the counting of energy pulses for kWh and kVarh in both directions from external energy meters.

Functions (contd)

Miscellaneous
Activation of active setting group (GRP)
Application

The function operates on a phase-segregated basis, if single-pole trip logic has been selected for a particular terminal.

Serial communication
Application

Different system operate conditions require different settings of protection functions used. The 500 series terminals have basically four sets of independent setting groups builtin, which contains all setting parameters for all protection-, control- and monitoring functions used. The user can change the active setting group at any time, locally by means of local HMI or a personal computer, or remotely by means of SMS and SCS as well as by activation of the corresponding functional inputs to the GRP function. Adaptive changing of the active setting group is possible by means of the GRP and some other functions, available within the 500 series terminals.
Design

One or two optional optical serial interfaces, one with SPA or IEC 870-5-103 and the other with LON protocol, for remote communication, enable the terminal to be part of a Substation Control System (SCS) and/or Substation Monitoring System (SMS). These interfaces are located at the rear of the terminal. Two buses can be built up, one independent of another, each of them with different functionalities regarding monitoring and setting of the functions in the terminal. Plastic fibres can be used up to a distance of 30 m (90 ft.). Glass fibres for distances up to 500 m (1500 ft.). An optical network can be used within the SCS system. This enables communication with the terminal through the LON bus from the operators workplace and the control centre. The second bus is used for SMS. It can include different numerical relays/terminals from the PANORAMA range with remote communication possibilities. Connection to a personal computer (PC) can be made directly (if the PC is located in the substation) or by telephone modem through a telephone network with CCITT characteristics.

The GRP functional block has four functional inputs, each corresponding to one of the setting groups stored within the terminal. Activation of any of these inputs changes the active setting group. Four functional output signals are available for the configuration purposes, so that continuous information on active setting groups is available for different purposes.

Dead-line detection (DLD)


Note: This function is not separately available. It is an addition to the automatic switchonto-fault function, the weak-end infeed detection function and the fuse failure function.
Application

Time synchronisation
Application

Different protection, control and monitoring functions require for their proper operation information on the condition of a protected element, such as power lines, etc. The DLD function detects the conditions of a protected element, whether or not it is connected to the rest of the power system.
Design

The terminal has an internal clock, which can be synchronised by means of a minute pulse through a binary input or via the station bus communication.

Local HMI
Application

The function continuously measures all three phase currents and phase voltages of a protected power line. The line is declared as a dead (non-energised) line if all three measured currents and voltages fall below the pre-set values for longer than 200 ms.

The HMI (Human-Machine-Interface) serves as an information unit, presenting in a logical order starting and tripping signals that have appeared during each of the last ten recorded disturbances.

Functions (contd)

Furthermore, each of the two local HMI possibilities takes over the functionality of the measuring instruments such as the A-meter, V-meter, VAr-meter, W-meter and Hz-meter. The current statuses of all binary input signals and internal logical signals are available too.

Self-supervision with internal event recorder


Application

The self-supervision function operates continuously and includes: - Normal micro-processor watchdog function - Checking of digitized measuring signals - Checksum verification of PROM contents - Checksum verification of types of signal communication - Read-Write-Read-Write cycling of the memory cells and internal registers The self-supervision status is available from the local HMI or via a SMS or SCS system. When an internal fault has occurred, you can retrieve extensive information about the fault from the list of internal events available in the terminal from SMS or SCS. A time-tagged list with the date and time of the last 40 internal events is available here.

Ac/dc measurements
Application

This function provides three-phase or singlephase values of voltage and current. At threephase measurement, the values of active power (W), reactive power (var), frequency (Hz) and the mean value for voltage (U) and current (I) can be calculated. Alarm limits to be used as conditions in the configuration logic can be set. Besides the direct inputs of voltage and current, analogue inputs for mA signals are also available.

Remote end data communication


Application
REx 5xx

REx 5xx < 30 km

The line distance protection terminals are using the communication facilities below, except the dedicated links, together with the optional function, binary signal transfer to remote end. The fibre optical module can communicate without additional units over dedicated fibres up to around 30 km. When greater distances are required to be covered, an external FOX 20 system, available from ABB Network Partner Ltd. (Switzerland), can be used. The FOX 20 works as a repeater in this case and is optically connected, sending the signals on dedicated fibres. With this configuration it is possible to cover distances up to 120 km on single-mode fibres. The FOX 20 can also operate as a multiplexer, in which case a number of 64 kbit/s data channels and RS 232 channel can be transmitted in parallel. Direct galvanic connection to a multiplexer can be done up to a distance of 100 m. The built-in interface in these modules can support the CCITT standard V.35/36 contradirectional, X.21 64 kbit/s and EIA RS 530/ 544 contra-directional 56 kbit/s communication modes. V.35/36 and RS 530/544 codirectional communication modes can be supplied upon request. The CCITT G.703 can be connected over an optional RS 530/544 contra-directional to G.703 converter. The distance between the terminal and the converter is limited to 10 meters. When the distance is too great for direct galvanic connection, a short-range optical modem is used. The distance can be up to 5 km and the optical/galvanic converter can directly support CCITT standard V.35/36 contra-directional as well as X.21 and G.703 communication modes. Direct galvanic communication over twisted pair cable for distances up to 4 km can be done using the short range galvanic modem.

Hardware design

The REx 5xx series mechanical packaging and connecting system consist of a case in which printed circuit boards are inserted. The case is available in different sizes (widths) with the height 6U (265.9 mm). REL 511 is normally assembled in a case with the width 1/2x19". The cover is made of preplated steel sheet, with the different details spot welded together. The outside surfaces are painted light beige. The front plate, which is made of aluminium profile, has a cut-out with a local HMI module. The degree of protection is IP 40, according to IEC 529, for cases with the widths 1/2x19" and 3/4x19". IP 54, for the front area, can be obtained with accessories for flush and semiflush mounting.

The REx 5xx series can be flush, 19"-structure or projection mounted with different mounting kits available. Products assembled in the 1/2x19" and 3/4x19" cases can also be semi-flush mounted. Two cases 1/2x19" can be mounted side-by-side for maximum utilising of space in 19" panels. A test switch, type RTXP, and/or COMBIFLEX modules are added in separate cases of the same basic design as the mechanical packaging of the 500 series. These cases, type RHGS, exist in sizes 1/4x19" and 1/2x19" and can be mounted by the side of REx 5xx products smaller than 1/1x19". All connections are made on the rear of the cases with compression type screw terminal blocks for electrical connections. Serial communication connections are made by fibre optic connectors type Hewlett Packard (HFBR) for plastic fibres or bayonet type ST for glass fibres.
