4 General description General Instructions 1. General description The ekor.rp.ci (ekor.rpg.ci and ekor.rpt.ci) protection, metering and control units bring together an entire family of different equipment, which, depending on the model, may incorporate overcurrent protection functions as well as other functions such as local control, remote control, electrical parameter meter, presence and absence of voltage, automation, recloser, phase unbalance, cumulative breaking current value, etc., which are related to the current and future automation, control and protection of medium voltage electrical installations. The ekor.rp.ci units are equipped with outputs that enable the switch of the cubicle where the unit is installed to be opened and closed both locally and remotely, as well as with inputs that detect the status of this switch. Their use in Ormazabal s cgmcosmos and cgm.3 cubicle systems means specific products can be used for different requirements in the facilities. The ekor.rp.ci protection, metering and control units have been designed to meet the national and international standard requirements and recommendations that are applied to each part that makes up the unit: Designed to be integrated in a cubicle, the ekor.rp.ci, units also provide the following advantages over conventional systems: 1. Reduction in handling of interconnections when installing the cubicle. The only necessary connection is reduced to the medium voltage cables. 2. Simplification of the control boxes installed on cubicles. 3. Voltage and current sensors are installed in the cubicle cable bushing. 4. Avoidance of wiring and installation errors; minimisation of commissioning time. 5. All the units are factory installed, adjusted and checked; each piece of equipment (relay + control + sensors) also undergoes a comprehensive check before being installed. The final unit tests are carried out once the unit is incorporated in the cubicle before delivery. 6. They protect a broad power range with the same model (e.g.: ekor.rpg-2002b from 160 kva up to 15 MVA, in cgmcosmos system cubicles).

5 General Instructions General description 1.1. General operating features All the relays of the ekor.rp.ci units include a microprocessor for processing the signals from the metering sensors. They process voltage and current readings and eliminate the influence of transitory states, calculate the magnitudes required to ensure protection, presence or absence of voltage, automatic operation, etc. At the same time they calculate the efficient values of the electrical readings that report the instantaneous value of these parameters of the facility. They are equipped with keypad for local display, set-up and operation of the unit, as well as communication ports to handle these functions from a computer, whether locally or remotely. A user-friendly design has been employed, so that the use of the various menus is intuitive. Current metering is by means of several current sensors with a high transformation ratio, making it possible for the same equipment to detect a wide range of power levels. These transformers or current sensors maintain the accuracy class in all of their rated range. Voltage is detected by capturing the signal via a capacitor divider built into the cubicle bushing. The local interface uses menus to provide the instantaneous values of the current metering for each phase and zerosequence current, as well as the setting parameters, tripped unit (whether phase or earth), total number of trips, voltage detection parameters, etc. These can also be accessed through the communication ports. From a maintenance perspective, the ekor.rp.ci units have a series of features that reduce the time and the possibility of errors in the test and service restoration tasks. Among the main characteristics, the most prominent are the large diameter toroidal-core current transformers installed in the cubicle bushing, their built-in test bars to facilitate its testing and accessible terminal blocks for conducting current injection tests as well as checking the relay inputs and outputs. This configuration enables a comprehensive testing of the unit. Figure 1.2. ekor.sys family relays IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016 5

6 General description General Instructions 1.2. Components The ekor.rp.ci protection, metering and control unit contains the following components: electronic relay, voltage and current sensors, auxiliary circuits (terminal block and wiring), the bistable trigger and the tripping coil. 1 Terminal block 2 ekor.rpg.ci electronic relay 3 Voltage and current sensors Figure 1.3. Example of installation of an ekor.rpg.ci unit in circuit breaker cubicles Electronic relay The electronic relay has keys and a display to set and view the protection, metering and control parameters. The relay includes a seal on the <<SET>> key to ensure that once the settings have been made they cannot be changed unless the seal is broken. The protection trips are registered on the display with the following parameters: reason for tripping, fault current value, the tripping time and the time and date the event occurred. Unit errors are also permanently displayed. The "On" LED is activated when the equipment receives power from an external source. In this situation, the unit is operational to perform the protection functions. The voltage and current analogue signals are conditioned internally by small and very accurate transformers that isolate the electronic circuits from the rest of the installation. The equipment has two communication ports, one on the front used for local configuration (RS232), and another one on the rear used for remote control (RS485). A second rear F.O. port is available as an option. The standard communication protocols for all models are MODBUS and PROCOME. 1 "On" signalling LED 2 Signalling of reason for tripping 3 Metering and parameter setting display 4 SET key 5 Keyboard for scrolling through screens 6 RS232 front communication port Figure 1.4.

7 General Instructions General description Current sensors The current sensors are toroidal-core current transformers with a 300/1 A or 1000/1 A ratio, depending on the models. Their range of action is the same as the switchgear where they are installed. They are factory-installed in the cubicle bushings, which significantly simplifies the on-site assembly and connection. This way, once the medium voltage cables are connected to the cubicle, the installation protection is operational. Installation errors of the sensors, due to earth grids, polarities, etc., are removed upon installation and checked directly at the factory. The inner diameter of the toroidal-core current transformers is 82 mm, which means they can be used in cables of up to 400 mm 2 without any problems for performing maintenance testing afterwards. All the current sensors have integrated protection against the opening of secondary circuits, which prevents overvoltages. 1 Current sensors 2 Bushing Figure 1.5. Location of the current sensors Tripping and bistable trip coil The bistable trigger is an electromechanical actuator that is integrated into the switch driving mechanism. This trigger acts upon the switch when there is a protection trip. It is characterised by the low actuation power it requires for tripping. This power is delivered in pulses in order to ensure that the switch opens. The operations ordered by the ekor.rp.ci unit outputs are performed by means of conventional tripping coils. This way, a redundant and therefore more reliable operational system is achieved. Figure 1.6. Tripping Coil IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016 7

8 General description General Instructions 1.3. Communications and programming software All the ekor.rp.ci units have two serial communication ports. The standard RS232 front port is used to set the parameters with the ekor.soft programme [2]. At the rear, there is an RS485 port which is used for remote control. This remote control connection uses twisted pair wiring and, if desired, optical fibre. The standard communication protocols implemented in all equipment are MODBUS-RTU (binary) transmission mode and PROCOME, although other specific protocols can be implemented depending on the application. The ekor.soft set-up programme has four main operating modes: 1. Display: indicates the unit status, including electrical readings, current settings, date and time. 2. User settings: allows the protection or fault detection parameters to be changed. 3. Logs: displays both the parameters of the last and penultimate detected fault and the total number of trips executed by the protection unit or the total number of faults detected by the corresponding integrated control unit. 4. Test mode: allows information to be generated on the unit inputs/outputs, without direct electrical interaction with the switchgear adjoining terminal block, so that it can be sent to the dispatching centre without cutting off the power. Minimum system requirements for installing and using the ekor.soft software: 1. Processor: Pentium II 2. RAM: 32 Mb 3. Operating system: MS Windows 4. CD-ROM / DVD drive 5.

9 General Instructions Applications 2. Applications 2.1. Remote controlled transformer and switching substations The ekor.rp.ci protection, metering and control units make it possible to handle remote control applications of the transformer and switching substations, by implementing the control and monitoring of each switch through the units associated with each functional unit. The remote control applications are rounded off with the built-in ekor.rci control unit associated to the line functions [3].

10 Applications General Instructions 2.2. Automatic reclosing of lines The reclosing function performs the automatic reclosing of lines once the protection unit has commanded the trip and the switch has opened. This is always associated to cubicles with Ormazabal circuit breaker. The protection units with automatic reclosing have a series of advantages over protections without reclosing: 1. They reduce the time in which electrical power is interrupted. 2. They avoid the need to locally re-establish the service in substations without remote control for temporary faults. 3. They reduce the fault time using a combination of rapid switch trips and automatic reclosings, which results in lesser damage caused by the fault and generates a lesser number of permanent faults derived from temporary faults. The unit that includes this function is: Unit Type of cubicle Maximum rated current ekor.rpg Circuit-breaker 630 A Table 2.2. Recloser function 2.3. Line protection with circuit-breaker The purpose of the line protection is to isolate this part of the network in the case of fault, without it affecting the rest of the lines. In a general way, it covers any faults that originate between the substation, transformer substation or switching substation and the consumption points. The types of fault that occur in these areas of the network depend primarily on the nature of the line, overhead line or cable and the neutral used. In networks with overhead lines, the majority of faults are temporary, which makes many line reclosings effective; in these cases, the reclosing function associated with circuitbreakers is used. Figure 2.3. Feeder protection This is not the case for underground cables where faults are usually permanent. On the other hand, in the case of phase-to-earth faults in overhead lines, when the ground resistance is very high, the zero-sequence fault currents have a very low value In these cases, an "ultrasensitive" neutral current detection is required. The underground cables have earth coupling capacities, which causes the single phase faults to include capacitive currents. This phenomenon makes detection difficult in isolated or resonant earthed neutral networks and thus requires the use of the directional function. 10 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

11 General Instructions Applications Line protection is mainly accomplished by the following functions: Instantaneous phase overcurrent. Protects against short-circuits between phases Phase overload. Protects against excessive overloads, which can deteriorate the installation N Instantaneous earth fault. Protects against phase-toearth short-circuits N Earth leakage. Protects against highly resistive faults between phase and earth Ns Ultra-sensitive earth instantaneous overcurrent. Protects against phase to earth short-circuits of very low value Ns Ultra-sensitive earth leakage protection. Protects against highly resistive faults between phase and earth of very low value Recloser. This enables the automatic reclosing of lines. The unit which provides the line protection functions is: Unit ekor.rpg Table 2.3. Type of cubicle Automatic circuitbreaker Line protection with circuit-breaker Maximum rated current 630 A 2.4. Transformer protection The distribution transformers require various protection functions. Their selection depends primarily on the power and level of responsibility they have in the installation. As an example, the protection functions that must be implemented to protect distribution transformers with a power rating between 160 kva and 2 MVA are the following: Instantaneous phase overcurrent. Protects against short-circuits between phases in the primary circuit, or high value short-circuit currents between phases on the secondary side. This function is performed by the fuses when the protection cubicle does not include a circuit-breaker Phase overload. Protects against excessive overloads, which can deteriorate the transformer, or against shortcircuits in several turns of the primary winding N Instantaneous earth fault. Protects against phase to earth short-circuits or secondary winding short-circuits, from the interconnections and windings in the primary circuit N Earth leakage. Protects against highly resistive faults from the primary circuit to earth or to the secondary circuit T Thermometer. Protects against excessive transformer temperature.

12 Applications General Instructions 2.5. Automatic transfer The automatic transfer of lines with circuit-breakers minimises power outages in loads fed by transformer or switching substations with more than one incoming line, thereby improving the continuity of service. Under normal conditions with voltage present on two possible incoming lines, the switch selected as preferred remains closed and the reserve one is opened. A voltage drop in the preferred line will cause the switch of this line to open and the reserve switch to close afterwards. Once normality has been re-established in the preferred line, the inverse cycle is performed and the system returns to its initial status. Figure 2.6. Automatic transfer 2.6. Detection of a phase with earthing In networks with isolated or resonant earthed neutral, the fault currents are very low. In the event of a fault in a system of this type, the fault current may not reach the set threshold for overcurrent protection, and therefore this fault may not be detected. A programmed logic, which analyses both the installation's voltage and its current, is used for detecting this type of fault. Figure 2.7. Detection of a phase with earthing 12 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

13 General Instructions Applications 2.7. Interlocks Earthing prevention The earthing prevention interlock does not allow the cubicle earthing switch to close when voltage is detected in the line. If the voltage presence/absence detection function of the integrated control unit detects voltage, an electromechanical interlock associated to this operation is activated. Figure 2.8. Earthing prevention Closure blocking with return voltage Through this functionality, any closing attempt can be avoided when return voltage is detected in the line output. Additionally, the reclosing attempts can be determined by the presence of voltage in the line. Figure 2.9. Closure blocking with return voltage IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

14 Protection functions General Instructions 3. Protection functions 3.1. Overcurrent The units have an overcurrent function for each one of the phases (3 x 50-51) and, depending on the model, they may have another one for earth (50N-51N). The implemented protection curves are the ones listed in standard IEC Overcurrent functions that can be performed depending on the model: 1. Overload multicurve protection for phases (51) 2. Protection of phase-to-earth multicurve faults (51N) 3. Short-circuit protection (instantaneous) at a defined time between phases (50) 4. Short-circuit protection (instantaneous) at a defined time between phase and earth (50N) Meaning of the curve parameters for phase settings: t(s) Theoretical tripping time for a fault which evolves with a constant current value I Actual current flowing through the phase with the largest amplitude I n Rated setting current I> Withstand overload increment K Curve factor I>> Short-circuit current factor (instantaneous) T>> Short-circuit delay time (instantaneous) 5.

17 General Instructions Protection functions 3.2. Ultra-sensitive earth device This protection corresponds to a particular type of overcurrent protections. It is primarily used in networks with isolated or resonant earthed neutral, where the phaseto-earth fault current value depends on the system cable capacity value and on the point in which the fault occurs. Generally, in Medium Voltage private installations with short cable stretches, simply determine a minimum zerosequence current threshold at which the protection must trip. The ultra-sensitive protection is also used in highly resistive soils, since the earth fault values are very low. The current flowing to earth is detected using a toroidal-core current transformer which covers the three phases. In this way, the metering is independent from the phase current, thus avoiding errors in the phase metering transformers. In general, this type of protection must be used when the set earth current is less than 10% of the rated phase current (e.g.: for a rated phase current of 400 A with earth faults below 40 A). On the other hand, in the lines, whose cable stretches are usually long, it is necessary to identify the fault direction. Otherwise, trips can occur due to capacitive currents from other lines, when there is not any fault in the line. 1 Voltage and current sensors 2 0-sequence toroidal transformer Figure 3.5. Sensors The available curves are: normally inverse (NI), very inverse (VI), extremely inverse (EI) and defined time (DT). The setting parameters are the same as in the earth faults of the overcurrent functions (section 3.1. Overcurrent ), with the exception that factor I o > is replaced with the value directly in amps I g. This way, this parameter can be set to very low earth current values, regardless of the phase setting current. 1. Pick-up current value of NI, VI, and EI curves = 1.1x I g 2.

18 Detection, automation and control functions General Instructions 4. Detection, automation and control functions 4.1. Recloser The reclosing function is implemented in the ekor.rpg.ci units, which are used in circuit-breaker protection cubicles. This allows the automatic reclosing of lines once any protection units has sent the trip command and the switch has opened. This function is primarily used in overhead lines, where a great number of faults are usually temporary (electrical arcs due to the proximity between two conductors caused by the wind, tree falling on lines, etc.). Temporary faults can be cleared by momentarily de-energising the line. Once enough time has elapsed to deionise the air, there is a very high probability that the fault will not re-occur when power is re-established. The recloser installed in the ekor.rpg.ci protection, metering and control unit is three-pole type recloser with simultaneous reclosing for all three phases. The recloser can execute up to four reclosing attempts and, for each of them, it is possible to define a different "reclosing time", T 1R to T 4R. The reclosing cycle starts when the recloser is activated and a protection trip occurs. Under these conditions, the relay waits for the first reclosing time and sends a command signal for the switch to close. When the switch closes, the blocking time delay starts counting. The reclosing is considered successful if, once the blocking time delay has elapsed, the fault disappears after the switch closes. Any trip that occurs afterwards is considered to be caused by a new fault and the first reclosing time delay restarts. If after the first switch closing, a new trip occurs before the blocking time delay has elapsed, it is considered to be caused by the same fault. The function thus starts the time delay of the second reclosing. The logic explained in the paragraph above will continue to be applied until the number of configured reclosings is exhausted. This means that the fault is permanent and it will change to the final trip condition. Setting parameters of the reclosing function: 1. 79_h : reclosing function enabled or disabled. 2. "Reclosing time", T 1R to T 4R: time elapsed from the protection trip until the command to reclose is sent. For each one of the reclosing commands, from the first to the fourth, it enables a different time delay to be defined, T 1R to T 4R. If any of the reclosing times is equal to zero, the recloser will recognise that neither this reclosing cycle nor any other reclosing cycle afterwards is available, even though the next time delay is configured. For example, a recloser with time delays configured at T 1R = 0.3, T 2R = 15, T 3R = 0 and T 4R = 210, will execute two reclosing attempts; one at 300 ms and the other at 15 s. 3. The "blocking time" (Tb) parameter defines the time elapsed from when the recloser sends the closing command until it is ready to start a new cycle. If a trip occurs during this time, the next reclosing process starts. If the maximum number of reclosings is reached, the recloser sequence ends (final trip). 4. The "blocking time after manual closing" (Tbm) parameter is defined as the time that elapses until the recloser changes to the standby condition after a manual closing operation, whether local or remote. If a trip occurs during this time period, the recloser will signal final trip due to manual closing against short-circuit. 5. Protection unit to be reclosed : In the reclosing function, it is possible to configure in which protection units a reclosing cycle should start and which units do not cause an automatic reclosing of the line. 18 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

Recloser 4.2. Presence / Absence of voltage This function enables the presence or absence of voltage to be detected in those lines where the ekor.rp.ci units are installed. The metering is carried out by using the capacitive coupling of the cubicle bushings. Thus, conventional voltage transformer systems are not required. Furthermore, it has the advantage of detecting voltage in the line itself without using LV from auxiliary services, which could cause errors in the display. The ekor.rp.ci units individually detect the presence or absence of voltage in each of the line phases. For this purpose, there are three input signals, one per phase. The ekor.rp.ci units detect the presence of voltage in each of the phases, when the metered voltage exceeds 70% of the voltage defined as "line voltage (U r )", for longer than the value set as "voltage time delay (T U ). Likewise, the unit detects the absence of voltage when the voltage drops below 70% of the line voltage for more than T U seconds. The "line voltage" parameter is the rated phase-to-phase operating voltage of the MV line. 1. U r: Line voltage. From 3 kv to 36 kv in steps of 0.1 kv. Figure 4.1. Detection of voltage presence 2.

20 Detection, automation and control functions General Instructions 4.3. Switch control The ekor.rp.ci units are equipped with inputs and outputs to operate the switch of the cubicle where it is installed, and monitoring functions that detect the current status of the primary circuit. The unit ensures that the switch operation is performed within the time allowed by the switchgear. In the event of a switchgear failure, the power supply to the driving mechanism is cut off. This prevents a switchgear failure from causing a total loss of control over the entire substation. The ekor.rp.ci protection, metering and control units also display the earthing switch position. Moreover, the unit can monitor the tripping and closing circuit. The switch can be controlled locally from the ekor.rp.ci keypad, through a PC with ekor.soft connected to the front port of the unit, or by remote control through a communication bus. 1 Control terminal block Figure 4.2. Switch control 4.4. Remote control The ekor.rp.ci units have two serial communication ports, of which one of them is used for remote control following the RS-485 standard. This can be connected on the same bus with a maximum of 32 pieces of equipment. The RS485 port has a connection for twisted-pair wiring and for optical fibre as an option. The remote control terminal of the transformer or switching substation sends the coded frames for each ekor.rp.ci unit. The only connection between each cubicle and the remote control terminal is the communication bus (whether via optical fibre or twisted pair). The communication between the communications terminal and the dispatching centre depends on the protocol used. Some of the functions available through remote control: 1. Display of switch status 2. Display of earthing switch position 3. Switch operation 4. Switch failure monitoring 5. Coil monitoring 6. Phase and zero sequence current metering I1, I2, I3 and I0 7.

Current The current values measured by the ekor.rp.ci units correspond to the efficient values of each of the phases I 1, I 2 and I 3. 8 samples from a half-period are used and the mean of 5 consecutive values is calculated. This reading is updated every second. It offers class 1 meter accuracy, from 5 A up to 120% of the current sensor s maximum rated range. Zero-sequence current metering is carried out in the same way as the phase currents. 1. Current meters: I 1, I 2, I 3 and I o Figure 5.1. Metering functions 5.2.

22 Sensors General Instructions 6. Sensors 6.1. Current sensors The electronic current transformers are designed for optimal adaptation to digital equipment technology, with a slight modification of the secondary interface. Therefore, the protection, metering and control equipment for these sensors operate with the same algorithms and with the same consistency as conventional devices. The low power outputs from the sensors can be adapted to standard values using external amplifiers. In this way, it is possible to use conventional equipment or electronic relays. Main advantages derived from the use of sensor based systems: 1. Small volume. The decreased power consumption of these transformers enables drastic reduction of their volume. 2. Improved accuracy. Signal acquisition is much more accurate due to high transformation ratios. 3. Wide range. It is not necessary to replace the sensors with others with higher ratios when the power of the facility is increased. 4. Greater safety. Open-air live parts are eliminated to enhance personnel safety. 5. Greater reliability. Comprehensive insulation of the entire facility provides greater levels of protection against external agents. 6. Easy maintenance. It is not necessary to disconnect the sensors when the cable or cubicle is being tested. Figure 6.1. Current sensor 22 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

P. [kva] [kva] ekor.rpg with toroidals A Max. P. [kva] (1) (1) (1) For cgm.3system cubicles. Table 8.5. Powers to protect The process to select the ekor.rpg.ci unit protection parameters in protection cubicles with circuit breaker by Ormazabal is as follows: 1. Determine the system power to be protected and select the ekor.rpg.ci model in accordance with the table above. 2. Calculate the rated current In= S/ 3 x U n. 3. Define the continuous overload level I>. Normal values in transformers of up to 2000 kva are 20% for distribution installations and 5% for power generation installations. 4. Select the transitory overload curve. Coordination between relay curves and LV fuses is performed with the EI type curve. 5. Define the delay in transient overload K. This parameter is defined by the transformer's thermal constant. This way, the greater the constant, the longer it takes for the transformer s temperature to increase under an overload condition; and therefore, the protection trip can be delayed longer. The normal value for distribution transformers is K = 0.2, which means that it trips in 2 s if the overload is 300% in the EI curve. 6. Short-circuit level I>>. The maximum value of the transformer s magnetisation current must be determined. The current peak produced when a no-load transformer is connected, due to the effect of a magnetised nucleus, is several times greater than the rated current. This peak value, up to 12 times the rated value (10 times for more than 1000 kva) has a very high harmonic content, so its fundamental 50 Hz component is much less. Therefore, a usual setting value for this parameter is between 7 and 10. This value may be lower in the case of general protections for several machines. 7. Instantaneous time delay T>>. This value corresponds with the protection trip time in the event a short-circuit occurring. It depends on the coordination with other protections and the normal values are between 0.1 and 0.5 s. In the case of a general protection for two transformers, 1000 kva each: S = 2000 kva, U n =15 kv The steps to follow for proper setting of the protection relay are the following: 1. Rated current. I n = S/ 3xU n = 2000 kva/ 3 x A 2. Continuous withstand overload 20%. I n x I> = 77 A x 92 A 3. Extremely Inverse Curve type. E.I. 4. Transitory overload factor. K = Short-circuit level. I n x I> x I>> = 77 A x 1.2 x 924 A 6. Instantaneous time delay T>> = 0.1 s The earth unit setting depends on the characteristics of the network where the equipment is installed. In general, the earth fault values are high enough to be detected as overcurrent. In the isolated or resonant earthed neutral networks, when the fault value is very low, in other words, when the earth protection is set to a value below 10% of the rated phase current, it is recommended that an ultrasensitive earth protection be used. 34 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

35 General Instructions Protection, metering and control models The values of the setting parameters must guarantee selectivity with the main switch protections. Given the variety of protection criteria and types of neutral used in the networks, a single parameterisation does not exist; each case requires a specific parameterisation. In general, for machines up to 2000 kva, the settings below are given as a general example. It must be ensured that they properly apply to the protections upstream (general, line or main switch protections, among others.)

Table 8.7. Earth adjustment parameters Installation in a cubicle The main components of the ekor.rpg.ci units are the electronic relay, voltage and current sensors, the bistable trigger, the tripping coil and the terminal block. The electronic relay is fastened to the cubicle control panel. The front of the equipment, which contains the components of the user interface, display, keys, communication ports, etc., is accessible from the outside without the need to remove the mechanism enclosure. The rear contains both the X1 and X2 connectors (refer to section8.3.5), as well as the wiring that connects it to the voltage and current sensors and to the terminal block. The signals that are operational for the user are located on a terminal block that can be short-circuited and accessed from the upper part of the cubicle. This enables use of conventional current injection equipment to test the protection relays. The role of the shortable terminal block for connecting the user is described below.

IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

38 Protection, metering and control models General Instructions Checking and maintenance The ekor.rpg.ci- protection, metering and control unit is designed to perform the operating checks necessary for both commissioning and regular maintenance checks. Several levels of checks are available depending on the possibility of interrupting service and accessing the MV cubicle cable compartment. 1. Check through the primary circuit: In this case the tests are performed on the equipment when it is completely shut down, since it involves actuating the circuit-breaker and earthing the outgoing cables from the cubicle. When current is injected through the toroidal-core current transformers, it must be checked that the protection opens the circuitbreaker within the selected time. In addition, you must make sure that the tripping indications are correct and that all the events are being recorded in the history log. To perform this check, follow the steps indicated below: a. Open the cubicle s circuit-breaker. Close the earthing switch and then close the circuit-breaker for an effective earthing. b. Access the cable compartment and connect the test cable to the test connector of the toroidal-core current transformers. c. Connect the test cable to the current circuit of the tester. d. Connect signal S1, trip indication (depending on the programmed operation), to the tester s time delay stop input. e. Open the circuit-breaker. Open the earthing switch and then close the circuit-breaker. To open the circuit-breaker using the protection unit, the earthing switch must be open. f. Inject the test currents and verify the tripping times are correct. Check that the trips are correctly displayed. In order to detect phase trips the test cable must be connected to the test bars of two toroidal-core current transformers. The current must go through each one in opposite directions. In other words, if the current flows up bottom in one of the test cables, in the other it must flow bottom up so that the sum of the two currents is zero and no earth fault trips occur. For earth trips, the test cable is connected to a single toroidal-core current transformer (zero-sequence or phase toroidal transformer, depending on whether a zero-sequence toroidal is available or not). Trip tests must be performed for all toroidal-core current transformers to check the proper operation of the complete unit. 1 I-1 2 I-3 3 I-11 Figure Test terminal block 38 IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/2016

39 General Instructions Protection, metering and control models 2. Check through the secondary circuit with circuit-breaker: In this case, the tests are performed on the equipment when the cable compartment is not accessible. This occurs because the cubicle outgoing cables are energised and cannot be connected to earth. In this case, the test cable cannot be connected to the test connection in the toroidal-core current transformers and the current injection is performed through the test terminal block. This testing method is also used when the primary circuit current values being tested are much greater than those produced by test equipment (normally greater than 100 A). To perform this check, follow the steps indicated below: a. Access the driving mechanism upper compartment where the checks and test terminal block is located. b. Short-circuit, and then disconnect the current circuit terminals I1, I3, I5, I7, I9 and I11. This procedure shortcircuits the current transformer secondary circuits. c. Connect the test cable to terminals I1 to I11, taking into account the following relation between terminals and phases. Current through L1 - I1 and I11. Current through L2 - I3 and I11. Current through L3 I5 and I11. Current through L1 and L2 (without earthing current) - I1 and I3. Current through L1 and L3 (without earthing current) - I1 and I5. Current through L2 and L3 (without earthing current) I3 and I5. d. Connect the test cable to the current circuit of the tester. e. Connect output S1 - trip indication (depending on the programmed operation) - to the tester s time delay stop input. f. If the circuit-breaker can be opened, put it in closed position. If the circuit-breaker cannot be operated, make sure the bistable trigger and the tripping coil remain disconnected, and start the check as explained in the following section "Check without using the circuit breaker. g. Inject the secondary test currents taking into account that the transformation ratio is 300/1 A or 1000/1 A, depending on the model. Check that the tripping times are correct. Check that the trips are correctly displayed. 3. Check through the secondary circuit without using the circuit-breaker: Not infrequently, the protection cubicle circuit-breaker cannot be operated and therefore the maintenance checks are performed exclusively on the electronic unit. In these cases, the following points should be considered: a. Always disconnect the bistable trigger and the tripping coil. This way, the relay can trip without acting upon the opening mechanism. b. Inject the current according to the section above, "check by secondary circuit without using the circuit breaker". c. The toroidal-core current transformers can be verified if the approximate consumption is known. The current that runs through the secondary circuit (terminals I1, I3, and I5) must match the 300/1 A or 1000/1 A ratios. IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

40 Protection, metering and control models General Instructions 8.4. ekor.rpt.ci units Functional description The ekor.rpt.ci protection, metering and control unit is used for the protection of distribution transformers. It is installed in fuse-combination switch cubicles so the electronic system performs all the protection functions, except high polyphase short-circuit values, which are cleared by the fuses. When an overcurrent that is within the values in which the load break switch can open is detected, the relay acts upon a low power bistable trigger that opens the switch. If the fault current is greater than the breaking capacity of the load break switch [5], the switch trip is blocked so that the fuses will blow. On the other hand, the equipment is disconnected and the fuses do not remain energised Definition of inputs / outputs The ekor.rpt.ci protection, metering and control unit can have five physical inputs and seven physical outputs or eight physical inputs and four physical outputs, as shown in the following table (refer to diagram section 8.3.2). All physical inputs and outputs are isolated from the rest of independent circuits. The inputs and outputs can be accessed through the ekor.rpt.ci. terminal block. The input status and the output actions can be checked both in local mode and through the communications protocol. You can also have access to the settings, parameters, readings, etc., in this way.

Determine the required fuse rating to protect the transformer in accordance with the fuse table in document IG 078 by Ormazabal. The maximum ratings that can be used are 160 A for voltages up to and including 12 kv, and 125 A for voltages up to and including 24 kv. 2. Calculate the transformer rated current I n = S/ 3 x U n. 3. Define the continuous overload level I>. Normal values in transformers of up to 2000 kva are 20% for distribution installations and 5% for power generation installations. 4. Select the transitory overload curve. Coordination between relay curves and LV fuses is performed with the EI type curve. 5. Define the delay in transient overload K. This parameter is defined by the transformer's thermal constant. This way, the greater the constant, the longer it takes for the transformer s temperature to increase under an overload condition; and therefore, the protection trip can be delayed longer. The usual value for distribution transformers is K = 0.2, which means that it trips in 2 s if the overload is 300% in the EI curve. 6. Short-circuit level I>>. The maximum value of the transformer s magnetisation current must be determined. The current peak produced when a no-load transformer is connected, due to the effect of a magnetised nucleus, is several times greater than the rated current. This peak value, up to 12 times the rated value (10 times for more than 1000 kva), has a very high harmonic content, so its fundamental 50 Hz component is much lower. Therefore, a usual setting value for this parameter is between 7 and Instantaneous time delay T>>. This value corresponds with the protection trip time in the event a short-circuit occurring. It depends on the coordination with other protections and the normal values are between 0.1 and 0.5 s. Whenever the shortcircuit value is high, the fuses will act in the time specified by their characteristic curve. 8. Determine the current value in the case of secondary threephase short-circuit. This fault must be cleared by the fuses, and it corresponds with the intersection point s maximum value between the relay and the fuse curves. If the intersection point is greater than the secondary short-circuit value, the settings must be adjusted to meet this requirement. To select the ekor.rpt.ci unit protection parameters in cgm.3 p cubicles, the steps to follow are similar to those proposed in the paragraphs above, except for the first step. The fuse rating required to protect the transformer is determined according to the fuse table of Ormazabal s documents IG-034 and IG-136 respectively. Please take into consideration that the minimum protection powers are listed in the table above. In the case of protecting a transformer with following characteristics in a cgmcosmos cubicle system: S = 1250 kva, U n =15 kv and U k = 5% Follow the procedure below for proper coordination between the fuses and the protection relay: 1.

44 Protection, metering and control models General Instructions The earth unit setting depends on the characteristics of the line where the unit is installed. In general, the earth fault values are high enough to be detected as overcurrent. Even in isolated or resonant earthed neutral networks, the fault value in transformer protection installations is clearly different from the capacitive currents of the lines. This way, the transformer protection ekor.rpt.ci units are used in isolated neutral networks that do not require the directional function. The values of the setting parameters must guarantee selectivity with the main switch protections. Given the variety of protection criteria and types of neutral used in the networks, a single parameterisation does not exist; each case requires a specific parameterisation. In general, for machines up to 2000 kva, the settings below are given as a general example. It must be ensured that they properly apply to the protections upstream (general, line or main switch protections, among others.)

45 General Instructions Protection, metering and control models Installation in a cubicle The main components of the ekor.rpt.ci units are the electronic relay, voltage and current sensors, the bistable trigger, the tripping coil and the terminal block. The electronic relay is fastened to the cubicle control panel. The front of the equipment, which contains the components of the user interface, display, keys, communication ports, etc., is accessible from the outside without the need to remove the mechanism enclosure. The rear contains both the X1 and X2 connectors and the wiring that connects it to the voltage and current sensors and the terminal block. 1 ekor.rpt.ci electronic relay 2 Current sensors 3 Voltage sensors Figure Example of installation of an ekor.rpt.ci in fuse protection cubicles Figure ekor.rpt.ci front and rear view 1 ekor.rpt.ci relay configuration interconnection 2 DB-9 Male (relay) 3 DB-9 Female (PC) 4 RS485 communications connection Figure Front and back connections diagram ekor.rpt.ci IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

47 General Instructions Protection, metering and control models Installation of toroidal-core current transformers The installation of toroidal-core current transformers requires special attention. It is the main cause of untimely tripping problems, and its improper operation can cause trips that go undetected during commissioning. Aspects that must be considered in the installation: 1. The toroidal-core current transformers are installed on the outgoing cables of the cubicle. The inner diameter is 82 mm, which means that MV cables can easily pass through the inside. 2. The earthing screen MUST go through the toroidal-core current transformer when it comes out of the part of cable remaining above the toroidal-core current transformer. In this case, the braided pair goes through the inside of the toroidal-core current transformer before it is connected to the earthing of the cubicle. The braided pair must not touch any metal part, such as the cable support or other areas of the cable compartment, before it is connected to the cubicle's earth. 3. The earthing screen must NOT go through the toroidal-core current transformer when it comes out of the part of the cable remaining under the toroidal-core current transformer. In this case, the braided pair is connected directly to the earthing collector of the cubicle. If there is no braided pair for the earthing window because it is connected at the other end (as in metering cubicles), the twisted pair should also not go through the toroidal-core current transformer. 1 Earth screen: it must pass through the inside of the toroidalcore current transformers Figure Installation of toroidal-core current transformers Checking and maintenance The ekor.rpt.ci protection, metering and control unit is designed to be able to perform the required operational checks. 1. Check through the primary circuit: This case corresponds to the tests that are performed on the equipment when it is completely shut down, since it involves actuating the switchdisconnector and earthing the cubicle outgoing cables. When current is injected through the toroidal-core current transformers, it must be checked that the protection opens the switch within the selected time. In addition, you must make sure that the tripping indications are correct and that all the events are being recorded in the history log. To perform this check, follow the steps indicated below: a. Open the cubicle s switch-disconnector and then earth the output. b. Access the cable compartment and pass a test cable through the toroidal-core current transformers. c. Connect the test cable to the current circuit of the tester. d. Connect output S1, trip signal (according to the programmed operation), to the tester's time delay stop input. e. Open the earthing switch and close the switch. Reset the latch and remove the actuating lever in order to leave the cubicle ready for tripping. f. Inject the test currents and verify the tripping times are correct. Check that the trips are correctly displayed. For phase trips, the test cable must pass through two toroidalcore current transformers. The cable must pass through each of them in opposite direction; in other words, if in the first one current flows up bottom, in the other it must flow bottom up so that the sum of the two currents equals zero and no earth trip occur. For earth trips, the test cable is passed through a single toroidal-core current transformer (zero-sequence or phase toroidal, depending on whether a zero-sequence toroidal is available or not). Trip tests must be performed through all toroidal-core current transformers to check the proper operation of the complete unit. IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

48 Settings and managing menus General Instructions 9. Settings and managing menus 9.1. Keypad and alphanumeric display As can be seen in the image, the ekor.rp.ci protection, metering and control units have a total of 6 keys: SET: gives access to the "parameter setting" mode. In addition, the key has a confirmation function within the various menus of the "parameter setting" mode. This function is explained in greater detail throughout this section. ESC: This key allows the user to return to the main screen ("display") from any screen without saving changes made to the settings up to this point. Using this key, the unit's trip indications can be reset. Scrolling keys: The "up" and "down" arrows enable the user to scroll through the various menus and change values. The "right" and "left" arrows allow values in the "parameter setting" menu to be selected for modification, as detailed later. Along with the keypad, the relays have an alphanumeric display which makes it easier to use them. To save energy, the relay has a standby mode (display switched off), which starts to operate any time the relay does not receive an external signal for 1 minute (pressing of any key, except the SET key, or communication via RS-232), or for 2 minutes if the user is modifying the parameters in the "parameter adjustment" mode. Likewise, if either type of external signal is received (pressing the ESC, arrow up, down, left or right keys; or communication via RS-232) the relay will exit the standby mode and return to its active status, as long as the relay remains powered.

49 General Instructions Settings and managing menus 9.2. Display The "display" mode is the normal mode of the relay when in operation. Its main function is to allow the user to view various unit parameters which can be summarised in 5 groups: 1. Current metering 2. Detection of voltage presence / absence 3. Viewing the setting values 4. Values of the last and penultimate trip 5. Current date and time The "display" mode is shown by default in the relay, both when it is switched on and when it returns from its standby status, or when pressing the ESC key from any screen. In this operating mode, the up and down keys are enabled so that the user can scroll through the various parameters in the "display" mode. The SET key accesses the "parameter setting" mode. Figure 9.5. Current date and time Figure 9.6 shows some of the "Display" mode screens of the ekor.rp.ci units. The screens shown in the relay display consist of 2 data lines. The first one indicates the parameter for the specific window; the second one establishes the value of this parameter. Additionally, both this display screen and the two data lines can show error codes (refer to section 9.5. Error codes ) and the status of the reclosing cycle (refer to section 9.6. Recloser codes ). These indications are displayed with the other indications. Figure 9.6. "Display" mode screens A table with the Display mode parameters sequence is shown below.

51 General Instructions Settings and managing menus 9.3. Parameter setting The "parameter setting" menu can be accessed from any window of the "display" menu by pressing the SET key. The protection remains operational with the initial parameters, until the user returns to the "display" menu by pressing the SET key again. When the relay is in the "parameter setting" menu, the text <<SET>> that appears in the bottom centre section of the relay screen (see drawing) allows the user to quickly identify the menu. As a precautionary measure, the "parameter setting" menu is protected by a password, which is entered each time the user wishes to access this menu. By default all the ekor.rp.ci units have the key This password can be changed by the user, as explained below. This menu allows the user to make changes to various relay parameters. These parameters can be grouped as follows: 1. Parameters for the protection and detection functions 2. Input menu 3. Output menu 4. Date and time 5. Communication parameters 6. Information on the number of trips 7. Password change Figure 9.7. Parameter setting Protection parameters The ekor.rp.ci units include two methods for selecting parameter settings: manual or automatic. The manual method consists of entering each protection parameter one by one. On the other hand, the automatic method makes the parameter entry easier and quicker for the user. In this method, the user simply enters 2 pieces of data: Installation transformer power (P t ), and line voltage (T r ). From these 2 pieces of data, the relay sets the parameters according to: I n P = t ( T The selected full load current value is achieved by always rounding up the value. r 3) IG-157-EN version 04; 31/05/

The settings introduction area is accessed once it is verified that the password is correct. At this moment, manual configuration (CONF PAR) or automatic configuration (CONF TRAF) must be selected. Change from one to the other using the "right" and "left" keys. Press the SET key to select the desired option. The diagram on the right graphically explains this process. Once inside any of the two settings entry areas, the user can move from one parameter to another using the "up" and "down" keys, the same as in the "display" mode. Press the ESC or SET key to exit this menu and access the "display" menu. The ESC key will disregard all setting changes made previously, whereas the SET key will save all data before continuing.
