    INTRODUCTION

    1.1 PROBLEM STATEMENT

    Power system for must have a reliable and efficient protection scheme. Once

    fault occurred on the system, it must be isolated as quickly as possible. This action could

    minimize the effects on system stability and damage to plant. Referring to figure 1.1,

    when a fault occurred on the system, one of the relay should be operated. However,

    sometimes the relay that should be operated due to the fault does not work properly

    delay in operation or does not function at all. It might be due to the problems from the

    setting of the relay. Therefore, relay should be set properly to make it will function

    accordingly. So, related to the problem, the study will be focused to the setting and

    coordination of the relays that used in distribution system.

    POWER SYSTEM PROTECTION

    2.1 INTRODUCTION

    Protection system for power system has been developed to minimize the damage

    and to make sure supply in safe condition, continuously and economically. Relay is one

    of the most important components in protection system. There is several kind of relay

    that each kind has own characteristic. A relay is device that makes a measurement or

    receives a signal that causes it to operate and to effect the operation of other equipment.

    It responds abnormal conditions in faulty section of the system with the minimum

    interruption of supply. The advantages of isolating a system fault as quickly as possible

    include safety for personnel and public, minimizing damage to plant and minimizing

    effects on system stability.

  • 6

    2.2 PROTECTION FOR POWER DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM

    The distribution system need a protection to minimize the damage and to ensure

    supply is reliable and economically. Protection systems distinguish between the

    protections against overload currents, effect of short circuit current and excessive

    temperature rise. Protective system should provide reliability, selectivity, speed,

    economy and stability in power system.

    2.3 PROTECTION DEVICES

    There are three-protection device used in distribution system:

    1. Fuse

    2. Circuit breaker

    3. Relay

    2.3.1 Fuse

    The fuse is a preliminary protective device. As the power capacity and voltage of

    electrical installations increase and their switching circuits become complicated, fuse

    protection become inadequate. This leads to the development of protective gears based

    on special, automatic device relays that are called protective relaying.

  • 7

    2.3.2 Circuit breaker

    A circuit breaker is a device that is not designed for frequent operation, but is

    capable of making and breaking all currents including fault currents up to its relative

    high rated breaking capacity. One great advantage of circuit breakers is their speedy

    operation, comparatively speaking, on a small overloads and the considerable control of

    operating time under these conditions.

    2.3.3 Relay

    Relays are used to respond to the various functions of the power system

    quantities to protect against system hazards. A protection relay is devices that respond to

    fault conditions and give a signal for circuit breaker to operate and isolate the fault.

    2.4 RELAYS

    A relay is a device that makes a measurement or receives a signal, which causes

    it to operate and to effect the operation of other equipment. A protection relay is a device

    that responds to abnormal conditions in an electrical power system to operate a circuit

    breaker to disconnect the faulty section of the system with the minimum interruption of

    supply. Many designs of relay elements have been produced but these are based on a

    few basic operating principles. The great majority of electro-mechanical relays are in

    one of the following groups:

    1. Induction relays

  • 8

    2. Attracted-armature relays

    3. Moving-coil relays

    4. Thermal relays

    5. Timing relays

    6. Static relays

    2.4.1 Induction Relays

    The induction relay is based on the domestic kilowatt-hour meter, which

    has a metal disc free to rotate between the poles of two electromagnets. Torque is

    produced by the interaction of upper electromagnet flux and eddy currents

    induced in the disc by the lower electromagnet flux, and vice versa. The torque

    produced is proportional to the product of upper and lower electromagnet fluxes

    and the sine of the angle between them.

    T a b sin A

    This means that maximum torque is produced when the angles between

    the fluxes are 90 and as are proportional to Ia and Ib T Ia Ib sin A. Torque applied to a disc without control would, of course, continually accelerate

    the disc to a speed limited only by friction and windage. Control is provided in

    two ways:

    1. By a permanent magnet whose field passes through the disc and produces a

    braking force proportional to disc speed. This controls the time characteristic

    of the relay.

    2. By a control spring which produces a torque proportional to disc angular

    displacement. This controls disc speed at low values of torque and

    determines the relay setting.

  • 9

    Disc speed is dependent on torque and as disc travel over a fixed distance is

    inversely proportional to time, an inverse time characteristic is produced. Figure

    2.1 shows the basic operational of induction relays.

    Typical applications:

    a) Wattmetric relay

    b) KVAr relay

    c) Phase-angle-compensated relay

    d) Overcurrent relay

    e) Over/under voltage relay

    Figure 2.1 Induction relays

    2.4.2 Attracted-armature relays

    The attracted-armature relay comprises an iron-cored electromagnet,

    which attracts an armature, which is pivoted, hinged or otherwise supported to

    permit motion in the magnetic field. The magnetic circuit can be presented in a

    similar manner to an electric circuit, using magneto-motive force (m.m.f) in

    ampere-turns applied to the reluctance of the iron and air gap in series-

    represented by resistance-which causes a flux to flow in the circuit. The

    permeability of the iron is much higher than that of air, which means that most of

  • 10

    the mmf will be used to magnetise the air gap. When the relay starts to operate,

    the length of the air gap, and therefore the reluctance, decreases which causes the

    flux, and the force, to increase. The effect of this in practical terms is that when

    the current in the coil reaches a value which produces sufficient force to move

    the armature-movement of the armature itself causes the flux and the operating

    forces to increase. So that once the armature moves it accelerates with increasing

    force until it is fully closed. This is the reason that contactors are very successful

    because once the contactor starts to move positive contact making is assured.

    In d.c. operated relays residual flux is a problem and may prevent release

    of the armature. In order to reduce it to alow value the armature should not bed

    entirely on both poles of the electromagnet in the closed position but should

    always have a non-magnetic stop, to ensure that there is a small air gap. In

    general attracted-armature relays are used:

    1. As auxiliary repeat relays and for flag indicators. These are

    known as all-or-nothing relays.

    2. As measuring relays where a drop-off/pick-up ratio of less than

    90% can be tolerated.

    Typical applications:

    a) All-or-nothing relays

    b) Measuring relays

    2.4.3 Moving-coil relays

    The moving coil relay consists of a light coil which when energized

    moves in a strong permanent magnet field. The coil can either be pivoted

    between bearings as in the usual moving-coil instrument or suspended in the

    magnet field in the manner of the moving-coil. In both cases the movement very

    sensitive that is very little energy is required to produce operating force. The

  • 11

    forced produced is proportional to the product of the permanent magnet flux and

    the coil current. The axial relay is less sensitive but is very robust. It has the

    advantage of having no bearings but on the other hand is affected by gravity if

    the relay case is not correctly aligned on the panel. In general moving-coil relays

    are used:

    1. Where a sensitive relay is required

    2. To provide a high drop-off/pick up ratio

    3. Where the relay can be subjected to a continuous overload of

    many times its setting

    4. In high-speed protection schemes.

    2.4.4 Thermal relays

    These are relays in which the operating quantity generates heat in a

    resistance winding and so affects some temperature-sensitive component. Most

    protective relays of the thermal type are based upon the expansion of metal, a

    typical example being the use of bimetal material. Thermal relays are suitable for

    use as overload relays where good accuracy and a long time delay are required.

    2.4.5 Timing relays

    In some circumstances a time delay is required in conjunction with

    protection relays. These fall into three distinct groups:

    1. Short-time relays

    2. Medium-value accurate-time delays

  • 12

    3. Long time relays

    Design of the protective relays with certain certain principles as:

    a) Simplicity

    b) High operating force

    c) High contact pressure

    d) Contact circuit voltage

    e) Contact-making action

    f) Minimum size of wire

    g) Enclosures

    2.4.6 Static relays

    At the outset, change from electromechanical relays to static relays was

    very slow because of the relative costs. Since the cost of electronic relays

    became less than the cost of equivalent electromechanical relays the transition

    has been rapid and practically all-new installations are being equipped with

    electronic types. The electromechanical relay will be with us for many years to

    come and so are described not only for this reason but because the operation and

    application of the electronic equivalents will be more easily understood.

  • 13

    2.5 REQUIREMENTS

    Main characteristics of protective relaying equipment are sensitivity,

    selectivity, speed and reliability. Relaying equipment must be sufficiently

    sensitive to operate reliably when required under the actual conditions that

    produce a slight operating tendency. However, it should not operate in a wrong

    manner. The ability of the protective relay system to operate so as to trip only the

    minimum number of breakers directly controlling the defective part of the system

    is called selectivity of the relaying system. A protective relay must operate at the

    required speed and must be reliable. The speed at which relays and circuit

    breakers operate has a direct bearing on the quality of service to the consumer,

    stability of the system, and the amount of power that could be transmitted

    without endangering the life and equipment. The use of protective relays should

    be evaluated on the basis of its contribution to the best economy in service to

    consumers.

    2.6 PROTECTIVE RELAY APPLICATION IN ELECTRICAL NETWORK

    1. Phase overcurrent relay

    This relay is set to avoid operation on all of those normal conditions to which they may be subjected.

    2. Ground overcurrent relays

    This relay is advantage of utilizing a current source that supplies little or no normal current to the relays.

    3. Directional overcurrent relays.

    4. Phase overcurrent relays.

    5. Ground overcurrent relays.

  • 14

    2.7 PROTECTIVE RELAYING

    Protective relaying is the basic form of electrical automatic equipment and is

    indispensable for normal and dependable operation of modern power distribution

    systems. When a fault occurs, the protection detects and disconnects the faulty section

    from the system, acting on the circuit breakers for tripping. When an abnormal

    condition, protection detects and depending on the nature of disturbance, performs the

    necessary operations to restore the normal conditions or a tripping action to circuit

    breaker.

    2.7.1 Applications

    Types There are two broad categories of protection; primary and backup. The

    primary is the first line protection but some form of backup protection must be

    provided. There are two such forms; local and remote. Local backup protection is

    provided at the same location as the primary protection, whereas remote backup

    protection as the name implies, is applied at another switching station. An

    example of remote backup protection is the simple time graded relays as shown

    in figure 2.2. A fault at F1 would normally be seen first by relay R1 and isolated

    by the circuit breaker at R1. In the event of failure of the relay or associated

    equipment at R1, the fault would be isolated by the operation of the relay R2.

    Similarly, if a fault were at F2, in case the relay or allied equipment fails at R2,

    the fault would be cleared by relay R3.

  • 15

    Figure 2.2 Circuit of Time Graded Scheme

    2.7.2 System

    Successful application of protective gear involves thorough knowledge of

    the system to be protected and the method of its operation. The maximum and

    minimum fault levels for different types of faults occurring at different points of

    the system must be calculated. The maximum load current must be known to

    determine whether the ratio of the minimum fault current to maximum load

    currents is high enough to enable simple overcurrent operated relays to be used

    successfully.

  • 16

    2.7.3 Scheme

    After the system details have been studied, a suitable protective scheme

    can be chosen. The choice depends on following factors. The protective scheme

    chosen will normally be supplied with samples of the system current and voltage

    by means of current and voltage transformers.

    The following are the common protection scheme used:

    a) Time-graded overcurrent protection

    This is based on the time/current principle of protection.

    b) Distance protection

    It serves the need for faster clearing times as the fault level increases and

    also because of the difficulty in grading time/overcurrent relays with the

    ever increasing number of switching stations creating more stage of

    protection. Normally applied for feeder protection of 66,110 and 132kV

    and above lines.

    c) Differential protection

    It consists of pilot wire protection and is quick acting. Generally applied

    for transformers having capacity about 5-10MVA and above.

    d) Restricted earth fault protection

    Normally used for winding of the transformer connected in star, where

    the neutral point is either solidly earthed or earthed through impedance.

    The relay used is of high impedance type to make the scheme stable for

    external faults.

    2.8 RELAY COORDINATION CONCEPT

    2.8.1 Radial System

    The specific protective relay as primary or backup is important in

    distribution system. When relay applied to protect its own system element it is

    thought of primary relay, when to backup other relays for fault at remote

    location, it is serving as backup relay. Providing both functions simultaneously;

    serving primary relay for its own zone protection and backup relay for remote

    zone of protection. The protective relay must be time-coordinated, so that the

    primary relay will always operate faster than the backup relay. So, the setting and

    coordination of the relay is the very important part to make sure which relay

    stands for primary and the other one for backup.

    2.8.2 Ring System

    To setting relay, the same method is used for both ring and radial system.

    However, the circuit must be opened, start at the source point to form a two

    radial circuit before setting the relay. First, followed the clockwise and system

    will form the relay as 5-4-3-2-1 by referring figure 2.3. The relay setting start

    with R1 and the concept same like radial system. Second, followed the anti-

    clockwise and the system will form a radial circuit like e-d-c-b-a as shown

    below. The relay setting start with Ra and the coordination concept same like

    radial system. For time setting multiplier (TSM) value, set with minimum value

    for primary relay and increased for backup relay.

  • 18

    Figure 2.3 Relay coordination concepts for ring system

    2.9 OVERCURRENT RELAY

    2.9.1 Overcurrent Protection

    The overcurrent relay is probably the most straightforward type of

    protective relay. It monitors the current flowing in the phase conductor and

    therefore its operating level must be set above the normal healthy level of current

    in the circuit. It is important to realize that overcurrent relays are designed as

    fault detecting devices and should not be thought of as overload devices.

    2.9.2 Overcurrent IDMT Type Relays

    The overcurrent relay, which gives inverse definite minimum time

    characteristics essentially, consists of an ac metre mechanism modified to give

    the required characteristics. The upper electromagnet has two windings. One is

    connected to the CT in line for the equipment to be protected and is tapped at

    intervals. The tappings are connected to a plug setting bridge by which the

    number of turns in use can be adjusted, thus giving the desired current setting.

    The second winding is energized by induction from the primary and is connected

    to the winding of the lower electromagnet. The disc spindle carries a moving

    contact which bridges two fixed contacts when the disc has rotated through an

    angle, which can be adjusted to give any desired time setting.

    2.10 OVERCURRENT SCHEMES

    2.10.1 Shortcomings

    The inherent shortcomings of overcurrent schemes are:

    a. Inability to distinguish between operating conditions at maximum

    generation and fault conditions at minimum generation.

    b. Comparatively large fault clearing time involved in clearing the

    faults.

    c. Increased settings at the generating ends in order to provide

    suitable discrimination times between sections.

    2.10.2 Overcurrent Relay in a Distribution System

    The application of overcurrent relays in a system is not simple and

    requires a thorough checking of the other components for coordination within the

    system for reliable protection. To ensuring proper protection in distribution

    system, the following steps are involved. A single line diagram of the system is

    drawn with various elements, such as bus bars, transformers, CTs ratio marked

    so that a clear picture is obtained of the system. Information of the relays used

    and all the settings must collect and recorded. Current settings are tentatively

    decided next to allow maximum full load currents continuously.

    2.11 TIME GRADED OVERCURRENT PROTECTION

    The principle electromechanical relay used for this application is the

    inverse-time relay that is an induction relay in which torque is proportional to I2.

    This relay has a range of current settings, usually 50% to 200% of nominal

    current in 25% steps. The setting is generally selected by the position of a plug in

    a plug bridge, which determines the number of active turns on the operating coil

    and therefore the current setting. The relay operating time can also be varied. At

    the maximum time setting the disc has to travel through 180 before contact is made. By moving the disc reset position closer to the contact-making position the

    operating time can be reduced. There is an adjuster, known as the multiplier,

    with a calibrated scale of 0.1 to 1.0, which is used to set, the disc reset position.

    The standard relay has a characteristic:

    T = 3(logM)-1 or 3/ log M

  • 21

    Where, M is the multiple of setting. This type of relay is known as the Inverse

    Definite-Minimum Time (IDMT) relay.

    2.11.1 Settings

    When determining a setting for an IDMT relay a number of allowances

    made by BS142 must be taken into account. BS142 states that the relay must

    definitely operate at 130% setting. Modern electromechanical relays have a reset

    figure of 90% and a operate figure of 110%. These affect the choice of plug

    setting in two ways:

    1. Under normal full-load conditions, the relay occupies the fully reset position

    2. Plug setting should be chosen so that the overload current does not exceed

    1.1 times the setting.

    The current setting can be adjusted in 5% steps which allow a much closer

    setting than that which is possible with the 25% steps associated with

    electromechanical relays. If the relay which should operate first was given a

    current setting higher than the following relay, at lower values of current

    discrimination may result. Therefore the general rule is that the current setting of

    a relay nearer the source must always be the same or higher than the setting of

    the preceding relay.

    2.11.2 Time-multiplier setting

    There are four factors which affect the discrimination period between relays.

    1. A variation from the ideal characteristic curve for which an error in time of

    0.1s is used for calculation purposes.

  • 22

    2. Overshoot, disc movement after the removal of current.

    3. Circuit breaker operating time, 0.15s is allowed.

    4. Contact gap. To ensure that a relay still has a short distance to travel when

    the fault is cleared by the relay with which it is discriminating.

    The minimum discrimination period of 0.4s is the time interval between relay

    operations at the maximum fault level. Figure 2.4 shows the standard IDMT

    current-time characteristic of different value Time Setting Multiplier. The

    vertical axis of current-time graph is Time Setting multiplier and horizontal axis

    is Plug Setting Multiplier.

    3.1 INTRODUCTION

    This project used SKM Power Tools for Windows for simulation part. Two

    functions, Distribution Analysis for Power Planning Evaluation and Reporting

    (DAPPER) and Computer Aided Plotting for Time Overcurrent Reporting (CAPTOR)

    are used to setting and coordination of overcurrent relay. The simulation used real data

    such as bus voltage, load demand, and nominal transformer rating, which are taken from

    Universiti Teknologi Malaysia Distribution.

    Figure 3.4 shows the single line diagram of UTM Distribution used in this

    project. For simulation using SKM Power Tools, the whole system was dividing into 2

    zones. This will make the coordination work easier and systematic.

    3.2 SKM Power Tools for Windows

    SKM Power Tools for Windows is used to model and analyze power system and

    coordinate protective relays. SKM Power Tools is electrical engineering analysis

    software developed by SKM Systems Analysis. SKM also provides several analysis and

    simulation with the functions of report and graph generating automatically. The several

    purposes are:

    1. Power Systems designing/modeling

    2. Short circuit test and fault analysis

    3. Load flow and demand load current analysis

    4. Time current coordination for protection system

    5. Harmonic analysis

    6. Motor starting analysis

    7. Transient stability simulation

    Two main functions from SKM Power Tools will be used in the simulation, namely

    Distribution Analysis for Power Planning Evaluation and Reporting (DAPPER) and

    Computer Aided Plotting for Time Overcurrent Reporting (CAPTOR).

    3.2.1 DAPPER (Distribution Analysis for Power Planning Evaluation and

    Reporting)

    This function is used to analyze and modeling power system with balance system

    studies including load flow, demand load and power system fault. Start with modeling

    the single line diagram and enter all the required data for the component that been used

    in the system. After modeling, run the balance system and all the result will be listed

    down in report function. Results will be used for other studies such as relay setting and

    coordination.

    Component editor

    Component Editor is a dialog box that lets you easily add, edit, copy, and delete

    system components in a convenient list format. Automatically generate one-line

    diagrams from system data entered through the Component Editor. Equipment list

    expands to show connections between system components allowing easy navigation.

    Sort devices by type, or run queries to list equipment according to your own criteria such

    as component type, voltage drop limits, voltage range, group association, etc. Figure 3.1

    shows the component editor function used in SKM to modeling the single line power

    system.

    3.2.2 CAPTOR (Computer Aided Plotting for Time Overcurrent Reporting)

    This function is used for coordination the protective devices. CAPTOR allows us

    to change the setting for protective devices and plot the current-time graph

    automatically. The current-time coordination report shows the information of device

    setting, operating time and fault duty of the relay. Appendix A shows the example of

    CAPTOR Report.

    3.3 SKM in Relay Coordination

    There are four major steps for setting and coordination of overcurrent relay in

    distribution system in order to design good protection system.

    1. Modeling

    2. Simulation and analysis

    3. Coordination

    4. Evaluation

  • 27

    3.3.1 Modeling

    Start with modeling the single line diagram based on real diagram. Select the

    components in software library that categorized by function and specification. Based on

    the real data of the component, components rating will be set in Component Editor.

    3.3.2 Simulation and analysis

    After modeling the system, run the model to get basic data such as fault current

    and load flow. To run the system, select the balanced system studies function. The

    output report will generate automatically for each studies for review. The examples of

    balanced system study setup are demand load (dl.rpt), load flow (lf.rpt) and short circuit

    (sc.rpt) shown in Appendix E and Appendix F.

    3.3.3 Coordination

    After running the balanced system studies, the simulations continue with

    coordination part. In order to do that, data like fault current and demand load must be

    obtained in advanced. To start the coordination, select the specific component in single

    line diagram, and then press the right click mouse. Select the TCC drawing and as a

    result, the current-time graph will be plotted together with component curve. The

    voltage and fault current that applied to component are shown in component setting.

    From the voltage and fault current data, the setting and coordination for overcurrent

    relay can be done. The series rating must be filled with a value that larger than fault

    current. Series rating is the value of current rating multiple with instantaneous value. So

    that, the specified device can operates within the current range. The current transformer

  • 28

    ratio and relay setting can be found in setting section. The value of current transformer

    ratio should be referring to demand load of that components, normally set higher than

    demand current. Relay setting- (Tap, Standard Inverse, and Instantaneous) will make the

    curve and operating time of relay change depend on that value. Adder/Shifter has to be

    set to find out the operating time of protection devices. Figure 3.4 shows the relay adder,

    shifter, and calibration points function. The value of adder/shifter should refer to

    Instantaneous.

    Figure 3.2 Relay adder, shifter, and calibration points function.

    3.3.4 Evaluation

    The TCC report includes the device setting, fault duty, voltage and operating

    time. The report is generating automatically, choose the report function to see all the

    report data. Coordination of protection devices can be evaluated by referring to TCC

    report and checking the relay operating time. TCC also give the information about

    functionality of protection system. There are four setting used in this report:

    1. Time Setting Multiplier (TSM) is the Standard Inverse

  • 29

    2. Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) is the Instantaneous

    3. Relay Operating Time (ROT) is the Test Point in TCC report

    4. RCOT is ROT/TSM

    RESULT AND DISCUSSION

    4.1 Introduction

    This chapter presents the simulation results of setting and coordination of

    overcurrent relay in UTM distribution system. Start with modeling the single line using

    DAPPER in SKM Power Tools and enter the real components rating. Then, run the

    balanced system studies to get the data like load flow, short circuit current and demand

    load. To setting and coordinate the overcurrent relays, used the CAPTOR TCC function

    for each relay and the current-time graph will be plotted automatically. Finally, go to the

    TCC report function to generate the CAPTOR TCC report that shown in Appendix A.

    Figure 4.1 shows the single line diagram for Zon 1 that used in simulation part. For

    simulation using SKM Power Tools, the whole system was dividing into 2 zones, Zon 1

    and Zon 2. This will make the coordination work easier and systematic.

    functions. All the components rating must be correct to make sure the system working

    properly.

    Figure 4.3 shows the current-time graph for Zon1, UTM. From the graph, the

    coordination of the relay will be obtained. For example, R21, R22 and R27 will be work

    as primary relay because the curve was plotted at minimum operating time. But, R13

    and R14 will be work as back-up relay because the curve was plotted at maximum

    operating time.

    Figure 4.4 shows the current-time graphs for different setting of TSM in Zon 1,

    UTM. Compare the graph from figure 4.3; the curve of selected relay was plotted at

    different operating time because the different setting of Time Setting Multiplier. Figure

    4.4 shows when the TSM increased, the operating time of relay also increased.

    4.2.1 Result for overcurrent relay setting in Zon 1, UTM

    Table 4.1 shows the setting of overcurrent relay in Zon 1, UTM. A relay setting

    like PSM, TSM, ROT and RCOT was shown in this table. The different value of Relay

    Operating Time (ROT) depends on the setting of Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) and

    Time Setting Multiplier (TSM). For example, the setting of PSM for relay R1 is 18 and

    setting of TSM is 0.1. Then, the relay will take 0.235s to send the signal to circuit

    breaker to operate. This time is called as Relay Operating Time (ROT).

    4.2.2 Different setting of Time Setting Multiplier (TSM) in Zon 1, UTM

    Meanwhile, results for different setting of overcurrent relay in Zon 1 are shown

    in Table 4.2. A relay setting like PSM, TSM, ROT and RCOT was shown in this table.

    The different value of Relay Operating Time (ROT) depends on the setting of Plug

    Setting Multiplier (PSM) and Time Setting Multiplier (TSM). Different setting of Time

    Setting Multiplier was conduct to see the relation between Time Setting Multiplier and

    Relay Operating Time. From the result, when the TSM value is minimum (0.1), the

    operating time of relay will be the minimum value. That means, the operating time of

    relay depends on the setting of TSM value. For example, the setting of PSM for relay

    R27 is 27 and setting of TSM is 0.1. Then, the relay will take 0.205s to send the signal to

    circuit breaker to operate. This time is called as Relay Operating Time (ROT). But,

    when the TSM is 0.5 the relay will take 1.027s to send the signal to circuit breaker.

    like PSM, TSM, ROT and RCOT was shown in this table. The different value of Relay

    Operating Time (ROT) depends on the setting of Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM) and

    setting of TSM is 0.9. Then, the relay will take 2.565s to send the signal to circuit

    4.3.2 Different setting of Time Setting Multiplier (TSM) in Zon 2, UTM

    Table 4.4 shows the different setting of overcurrent relay in Zon 2, UTM. A relay

    setting like PSM, TSM, ROT and RCOT are shown in this table. The different value of

    Relay Operating Time (ROT) depends on the setting of Plug Setting Multiplier (PSM)

    and Time Setting Multiplier (TSM). Different setting of Time Setting Multiplier was

    conduct to see the relation between Time Setting Multiplier and Relay Operating Time.

    From the result, when the TSM value is minimum (0.1), the operating time of relay will

    be the minimum value. That means, the operating time of relay depends on the setting of

    TSM value. For example, the setting of PSM for relay R35 is 25 and setting of TSM is

    0.1. Then, the relay will take 0.211s to send the signal to circuit breaker to operate. This

    time is called as Relay Operating Time (ROT). But, when the TSM is 0.5 the relay will

    take 1.053s to send the signal to circuit breaker.

    4.3 DISCUSSION

    Based on the result, it is observed that the Time Setting Multiplier (TSM) was set

    to 0.1 for primary relay and the delay time for backup relay is 0.5s. The setting of relay

    can be adjusted from the TCC graph in order to determine the right setting and

    coordination. For relay setting, Tap will set the starting operate time for relay and it will

    move the curve vertically. Standard inverse will influence the real operating time (ROT)

    as it is the time setting multiplier. The standard inverse also will move the curve

    vertically in the current-time graph. Instantaneous is plug setting multiplier (PSM) it will

    control the operating range of relay and can extend the curve in TCC graph. For the different setting of TSM, the lower value of TSM will make the relay work as primary

    relay. Appendix A, Appendix B, Appendix C, and Appendix D shows CAPTOR TCC

    report for single line diagram in UTMs distribution. The setting value of overcurrent

    relay such as Plug Setting Multiplier, Time Setting Multiplier, Tap, and Current Rating

    will be checked by referring this CAPTOR Report.

    Overcurrent relays are added to protect the system and relay coordination can be

    done. For a huge system, separate the whole system to several zones according to bus

    voltage. This will make the setting and coordination work much easier and systematic.

  • CHAPTER 5

    CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATION

    5.1 CONCLUSION

    For the conclusion, the main objective to setting and coordinate the overcurrent

    relay types IDMT for power distribution system are obtained. The setting and

    coordination of relay has been done for radial and ring system. The current-time graph

    for each relays that used in distribution system was automatically plotted by CAPTOR

    TCC function. The Relay Operating Time depends on the setting of PSM and TSM

    value. The effect of increasing Time Setting Multiplier is to increase the Relay

    Operating Time.

  • 55

    5.2 RECOMMENDATIONS

    There are some recommendations for further study in this topic:

    1. Used different types of relays such as directional overcurrent relay, earth

    fault protection and others. Some distribution system used different types of

    relay like earth fault relay and directional overcurrent relay. The different

    types of relay can be used to compare the operating time at different setting

    of relays.

    2. Combined all the protection system for distribution system and transmission

    system. For transmission system, the protection that applied was different

    with distribution system. So, if distribution and transmission system was

    combined, we should get the different setting and coordination according to

    the system.
