Station dc supply associated with protective functions
(including batteries, chargers, and non-battery based dc supply)
Associated Alarms
Loss of AC to Battery Charger
Low Battery Voltage
Loss of DC

Battery Chargers
• Convert an AC source to DC, and maintain adequate charge on the batteries.
• Do NOT have the capacity to carry the full station DC load.
![Page 6: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Protective Relay Principles
• Cannot prevent faults• Proactive – pilot wire relays; temperature relays• Reactive – relays that initiate action after fault occurs
• Use inputs from Monitoring devices• Current, Voltage, Temperature, Pressure
• Initiates corrective action as needed to remove fault• Minimize Damage from the fault by quick interruption
• The quicker the fault is removed, the less damage.• Isolate Only the Faulted Area (Zone).• Maintain Service to Other Areas (Zones) During and/or after Isolation of the Fault.
![Page 7: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Protective Relay Principles
• Designed & utilized to protect against Faults.• But could potentially trip due to loading in excess Facility Ratings or
System Operating Limits (SOLs). • It is incumbent on the System Operator to alleviate these conditions real
time and Day ahead planners pre-contingency.• Settings determined with system normal
• During System Restoration / Islanding events• May not have enough fault current available to reach trip values.• Have Switching Personnel monitor ammeters when closing devices.• When closing by supervisory control, monitor ammeters on SCADA.

Network verses Radial
• Radial • One source - fault interrupting devices are in series with lateral feeds to
customers.• Distribution Circuits are typically radial.
• Network• Dual or Multiple Sources• The Transmission system is largely a Transmission Network.• Relay coordination becomes more complicated and more expensive.
• Magnitude of current and Time Delay• Direction of current• Communication channels
![Page 10: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Primary verses Backup Relays
• Primary relays are normally expected to operate first and trip breakers when faults occur within the zone they protect. • Instantaneous on Transmission and EHV (>500kV) circuits• Sub-transmission (<100kV) may or may not be instantaneous
• Depending on relaying used and location of fault
• Backup relays operate to clear around a CB that fails to interrupt a fault within a specific time period.• Local Backup (7 – 15 cycles)
• Breaker Failure or Transfer Trip relays at the local station• Remote Backup (20 – 30 cycles)
• Time Delay or Zone 2 relays at remote stations
![Page 11: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Zones of Protection
• Defined by Current Transformers (CTs) that sense current flow into the zone.• Each zone will have unique targets
• All primary equipment is included in at least one zone of protection.• Overlapping ensures no equipment is left unprotected.

Potential Sources for Relays
• Some relays require a voltage/potential input in addition to the current input, to monitor the zone determined by the associated CTs.• Do NOT define the zone of protection• Should be attached close to equipment they protect
• Sources of Relay Potential• Potential Transformer (PT) – Most accurate• Coupling Capacitor Potential Device (CCPD)• Coupling Capacitor Voltage Transformer (CCVT)• Resistive Potential Device
![Page 15: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Fundamentals of Relay Protection Potential for Relaying (cont.)
Coupling Capacitor Potential Device. (CCPD)
Coupling Capacitor Voltage Transformer (CCVT)
• Uses a series capacitor voltage divider principle.• Typically used for relay potential 138 kV and above.• CCVT is more accurate and has more capacity.
![Page 16: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Potential for Relaying (cont.)
•Cascading of Capacitor cans•All cans intact, each group has same
impedance and voltage divides equally.• If one can fails in a group, the impedance of
that group increases.• That group then has more of the voltage.
• More stress on cans in the group.•As other cans fail, more voltage (and more
stress) is on cans in the group, and cascading can occur.

Overcurrent Relays
• Can be Instantaneous (50) or time-delayed (51)• Can be non-directional or directional.
• Non-directional used on radial circuits• Directional used on Network circuits
• Ground Relay• Sees only imbalance current.• Usually set lower than phase relay• Ground target only on some faults
• Phase relays• Phase relays must be set above load current. • Use Undervoltage scheme where load approaches available fault current

Undervoltage/OverCurrent Scheme
• A special scheme in which the over-current relays can’t operate unless low voltage indicates a fault.• The Voltage Relay keeps the over-current relay coils
shorted for normal voltage• Removes the short to place the over-current relay coils
in service when voltage is depressed due to fault conditions.
• Cheaper than adding Electro-Mechanical impedance relay

Differential Relaying
• Operate when the power into a protected zone does NOT equal the power out of the protected zone. • Basically - CTs algebraically add for paths into and out of the zone to
cancel at the relay operate coil.• The differential relay is preset to operate instantaneously when the
difference that is seen by the relay exceeds its trip setting.• Bus Zones (87B)• Transformer Zones (87T)• Generator Zones (87G)
![Page 21: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

Impedance (Distance) Relays
• Sub-transmission circuits have high impedances • Instantaneous overcurrent relays can be set for proper coordination.
• Impedances of circuits operated at 138kV and above are much lower• Coordination with overcurrent relays is more difficult
• Impedance (Distance) relays use the secondary current and secondary voltage during a fault to calculate the impedance to the fault.• Since the impedance per mile of the circuit is known, the impedance to the fault
can be used to estimate the distance to the fault. • If impedance to the fault is within the Zone 1 setting, an
instantaneous trip occurs.

Directional Comparison Carrier Blocking
• Impedance relays (Z1, Z2, Z3) remain in service, and function as Backup Relays
• The Directional Comparison Carrier Blocking scheme uses a Zone-3 impedance relay with no time delay
• Communication channel used only to transmit a blocking signal for external faults
Relays of CB B will send blocking signal to prevent CB A from tripping for a fault on circuit C - D.

• When fault current is detected• A blocking signal is transmitted ONLY for external faults
• No signal is transmitted for internal faults• Trip occurs when a fault is detected and no blocking signal is received

• Multiple circuits (Fault on G-H)• Carrier Relays for CBs _________________see fault into the circuit; and therefore
will not transmit• Carrier Relays for CBs _______________ see fault into the bus; and therefore will
transmit• CBs G and H trip because their respective relays see fault current into the circuit
and no blocking signal was received.

Phase Comparison
• Phase comparison systems use only current for fault location (i.e. internal or external)• Very desirable on lines with variable impedance, such as a line with switched series
capacitor or series reactor compensation.• Upon fault detection, the comparer logic relay compares the current
at each terminal.• If the phase angle and magnitude are within a preset comparison
window, no tripping will occur.• If the angle reverses at either end (signifying a 180o power reversal,
(which is indicative of an internal fault), the comparer will initiate trip of the breaker.
![Page 33: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Phase Comparison External Fault
• The over-current fault detector relays see fault current but neither comparer sees a difference in phase angle.• No trip occurs for Breakers 1 or 2
![Page 34: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Phase Comparison Internal Fault
• The over-current fault detector relays see fault current. • Comparers see a 180o difference in phase angles.• Trip occurs for Breakers 1 & 2
![Page 35: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Transfer Trip Schemes
• Direct Transfer Trip (DTT)• Also used for Breaker failure to trip remote breakers, lines terminated by transformers, and
with shunt reactors.• Direct Under-reach Transfer Trip (DUTT)• Permissive Under-Reach Transfer Trip (PUTT)• Permissive Over-Reach Transfer Trip (POTT)
• Most common TT scheme used for line protection• Guard signal is transmitted constantly to check integrity of the Transfer Trip
Channel.• When a trip signal is needed, the signal is shifted from the Guard frequency to the Trip
frequency.• Used as backup to the two redundant primary relays on EHV
![Page 36: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Direct Under-Reach Transfer Trip
• When under-reaching Zone 1 element detects a fault:• Trips local CB instantaneously, and• Sends Direct Transfer Trip signal to trip remote CBs
• Upon receipt of Direct Transfer Trip signal, CBs trip instantaneously with no other condition necessary
• Transfer trip signal important when fault is beyond Z1

Permissive Under-reach Transfer Trip
• When under-reaching Zone 1 element detects a fault:• Trips local CBs instantaneously, and• Sends permissive Transfer Trip signal to relays at remote terminal.
• If relays at remote terminal see only a Zone 2 fault:• The permissive signal will bypass the time delay and allow the CBs at the remote terminal to trip
instantaneously.
• For faults in the middle 80%• CBs at both terminals will trip instantaneously by Zone 1• Will also receive TT signal
• For faults beyond Zone 1 reach of one terminal• Permissive Transfer Trip signal becomes very important

Permissive Under-reach Transfer Trip
• For a fault close to CB 2• Permissive Transfer Trip will set up instantaneous tripping of CB 1

Permissive Over-reach Transfer Trip
• More common as line protection scheme than other TT schemes.
• If the overreaching Distance Relay sees a fault, a permissive TT signal is sent to the other end.
• To trip instantaneously:• The overreaching Distance Relay must see a fault, and• Receive a permissive transfer trip signal from the opposite terminal.

Permissive Over-reach Transfer Trip
• For a fault at any point on the circuit• Fault is seen by over-reaching element at both terminals• Both terminals receive the permissive signal• Both terminals trip instantaneously

![Page 43: Introduction To Protective Relays This training is applicable to protective relaying and System Monitoring tasks associated with NERC Standards PRC-001.](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022062301/5697bf951a28abf838c90a72/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Summary
• Standards require Operators to have knowledge of relay systems• Importance of DC system in Protection systems• Digital relays emulate control and reclose switch positions• Principles of relay protections
• Can’t prevent faults• Three main purposes
• Quick interruption of faults• For permanent faults, isolate only the faulted zone• Use reclosing relays to restore as much of the system as possible after a fault
• Transmission relays set for fault current• During blackout restoration, relay protection is compromised

Summary
• Primary and Backup relays• Zones of Protection
• Targets indicate in which zone the fault was• Zones overlap at a CB
• Potential sources for relays• Overcurrent relays• Differential relays• Lockout Relays• Impedance (Distance) Relays
• Zones 1, 2 and 3
