28 WHY ARE PROTECTIVE RELAYS NECESSARY? Faults in electrical circuits are always possible Three-phase circuits can experience a variety of fault types Single-phase-to ground (most common type) Phase-to-phase Phase-to-phase-to ground Three-phase Open conductors Faults are caused by Electrical insulation failure Lightning strikes, strong wind, ice accumulation, contact by foreign objects Elevated current & arcs (>3000 f) cause equipment damage 28

29 PROTECTION SYSTEM COMPONENTS Measuring devices (instrument transformers) Current transformers (CTs): most important measurement Potential or voltage transformers (VTs, CCVTs) Power circuit breakers Circuit switchers Motor operated disconnect switches Protective relays or protection systems Teleprotection equipment 29

30 CURRENT TRANSFORMERS (CTs) Reduce large currents (thousands of amperes) to safe levels for instruments (5 amperes nominal). Are designed to accurately scale down the magnitude and phase of primary currents. Multi-ratio units have taps. Function similar to ideal current sources. Bushing current transformers are placed around the high voltage bushings of equipment like generators, transformers and power circuit breakers. Free-standing current transformers are separate high voltage devices that are connected to buses and lines. 30

31 BUSHING CURRENT TRANSFORMERS 31

32 BUSHING CURRENT TRANSFORMERS 32

33 FREE-STANDING CURRENT TRANSFORMERS 33

34 VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS (VTs & CCVTs) Reduce large voltages (10s to 100s of kilovolts) to safe levels for instruments ( 115 volt nominal). Are designed to accurately scale down the magnitude and phase of primary voltages. Many provide two ratios. CCVTs are also used to couple high frequency power line carrier signals on to power lines. 34

35 VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS: 345 KV 35

36 CAPACITOR VOLTAGE TRANSFORMERS: 345 KV 36

37 PROTECTIVE RELAYS IEEE definition of a protective relay: an electric device that is designed to interpret input conditions in a prescribed manner and after specified conditions are met to respond to cause contact operation or other similar abrupt change in associated electric control circuits. Inputs are usually electric, but may be mechanical, thermal, or other quantities. Have evolved over time as technology has advanced: electromechanical, solid state, microprocessor. Most protection functions are the same: different technology. 37

38 ELECTROMECHANICAL PROTECTIVE RELAYS Operate on the principles of electromagnetic attraction and induction using power system voltages and currents. Logical functions can be performed using combinations of series and parallel contacts. Each function usually requires a discrete device, which must be wired to other devices to implement logic. Electromechanical targets for post-operation analysis Rapidly being replaced by newer technology. 38

39 ELECTROMECHANICAL PROTECTIVE RELAYS ELECTROMECHANICAL TRANSMISSION LINE PROTECTION 39

40 SOLID STATE PROTECTIVE RELAYS Convert ac current and voltage input signals from instrument transformers into dc levels and square waves. Use solid state timers and logic gates to measure power system conditions and respond with contact or solid state outputs. Small scale integration (SSI) of electronics and modular circuit boards allow more functions to be incorporated into less control panel space. Much less wiring between protective devices is required since much of it is done on the foil traces of printed circuits LCD displays and LEDS for post-operation analysis. 40

41 SOLID STATE PROTECTIVE RELAYS SOLID STATE TRANSMISSION LINE PROTECTION 41

42 MICROPROCESSOR PROTECTIVE RELAYS Ac current and voltage input signals from instrument transformers are digitized by analog to digital converters. Microprocessors use algorithms to measure power system conditions and respond with contact or solid state outputs. Continuous self-diagnostics raise alarms if problems are detected within the protection system. Large scale integration (LSI) of electronics and modern fast, powerful microprocessors allow an incredible number of functions to be incorporated into very little control panel space. Virtually no wiring between protective devices is required. Extensive data recording capability: oscillographyand sequence of events for post operation analysis. Also called numerical protective relays. Perform so many functions are more correctly called protection systems. 42

43 MICROPROCESSOR PROTECTIVE RELAYS COMPLETELY REDUNDANT LINE PROTECTION 43

44 TELEPROTECTION EQUIPMENT Teleprotection equipment is used with protective relays primarily for transmission line and breaker failure protection schemes. These functions require high speed ( 4 millisecond back-to-back operate time), high dependability, and security against incorrect operation. Equipment used to carry teleprotection signals include metallic cable (short transmission lines), power line carrier, analog microwave, digital microwave, leased telephone lines, fiber optic cable, and spread spectrum radio. Modern microprocessor based transmission line protection systems can be equipped with a variety of built-in communication hardware to interface with the relay at the other terminal: RS232, RS422, G.703, IEEE C37.94 fiber optic, 820 or 1300 nm multi-mode fiber optic, and 1300 or 1550 nm single-mode fiber optic. 44

45 TELEPROTECTION EQUIPMENT The IEEE C37.94 standard defines a point-to-point optical link for synchronous data between a multiplexer and a teleprotection device. Data is usually 64 kbps but the standard allows for speeds up to 64n kbps, where n = 1, 2,F,12. IEEE C37.94 fiber optic interface can be used on multi-mode direct fiber for short-haul applications (up to 2 km) or with C37.94 compliant digital multiplexers for long distance transport. 45

46 TELEPROTECTION EQUIPMENT Fiber optic communications is an excellent application for communications within and between electric power substations because it is immune to electromagnetic interference and ground potential differences. 46

49 51 - OVERCURRENT FUNCTION As current magnitude increases operating time decreases. When a short circuit occurs on a power system element the current it draws greatly increases. 49

50 21 - DISTANCE FUNCTION Distance functions operate on the impedance plane plotted using the R & X axis. They possess a characteristic shape that defines the border of the operate and restraint regions. The mho circle is one of the most commonly used shapes in protective relaying. Other shapes like the quadrilateral are also used. Transmission line protection is a common application. When a short circuit occurs on a power system element the impedance measured by its protective relay changes suddenly and dramatically. 50

56 BASIC OBJECTIVES OF PROTECTIVE RELAYING Reliability Selectivity Speed Simplicity Economy 56

57 RELIABILITY Protection systems spend 99.9% of their service time monitoring power system elements and very little of it operating so they must work when called on. Periodic testing of protective relays is done to verify that they are functioning properly. Electromechanical and solid state protective relays provided no indication that they had failed until they incorrectly operated. Microprocessor relays use selfdiagnostics that will alarm on many failures. 57

58 SELECTIVITY Maximizes continuity of service for power system elements. When faults do occur the minimum amount of high voltage equipment must be disconnected: only that required to isolate the fault. Prevents larger, cascading power outages. 58

59 SPEED Quick clearing of faults minimizes damage and enhances power system stability. Modern EHV protection system equipment can clear a fault in less than four cycles (.067 seconds). Human eye blink = seconds. 59

60 SIMPLICITY Utilizing the minimum amount of equipment and the simplest schemes to provide protection saves time and money and maximizes the odds of a scheme working correctly. K.I.S.S. (Keep it simple) 60

61 ECONOMICS Minimum total cost is important for everyone that uses electricity. Cheap electricity enhances a nation's prosperity. With their greatly increased capabilities and smaller size modern protection systems are a bargain compared to legacy (electromechanical & solid state) systems. Fully optioned modern transmission line protection systems can be purchased for $10k to $15k. They are extremely versatile and can do practically anything the protection engineer desires. 61

62 ZONES OF PROTECTION Are defined by the locations of current transformers. Allow protection systems to isolate only the faulted element. Will discuss four zones: Generator Bus Transformer Transmission line 62

63 ZONES OF PROTECTION GENERATOR TRANSFORMER BUS TRANSMISSION LINE BUS LINE 63

64 GENERATOR PROTECTION Faults Phase or ground faults in the stator or protection zone Ground faults in the rotor (field windings) Abnormal conditions Loss of or low excitation Overload Overvoltage Low or high frequency Motoring Connecting to grid out of synchronism Loss of synchronism with the grid 64

65 BUS PROTECTION Ground faults Phase faults Overvoltage protection normally not applied 65

66 TRANSFORMER PROTECTION Ground and phase faults (87) Overvoltage (59) Overload or backup protection (51, 21) 66

67 TRANSMISSION LINE PROTECTION Ground and phase faults (21, 87, 67n) Overvoltage (59) Time delayed backup protection ( 2, 21) High speed clearing of faults is dependent upon communications between protective relays at the ends of the line: pilot or communications based protection schemes 67

68 TYPES OF PILOT PROTECTION Pilot wire (requires a cable) Directional comparison systems DCB - directional comparison blocking DCUB - directional comparison unblocking POTT - permissive overreaching transfer trip (popular) DUTT - direct underreaching transfer trip (permissive and non-permissive Phase comparison Current differential (87) [increasing in popularity] 68
