either by means of current measurement or as detection of closed status using auxiliary
contact.
CCSRBRF can also give a retrip command. This means that a second trip signal is sent to the
protected object circuit breaker. The retrip function can be used to increase the probability of
operation of the breaker, or it can be used to avoid backup trip of many breakers in case of
mistakes during relay maintenance and test.
7.7.3 Setting guidelines
SEMOD127980-4 v6
The parameters for Breaker failure protection, single phase version (CCSRBRF) are set via the
local HMI or PCM600.
The following settings can be done for the breaker failure protection.
GlobalBaseSel: Selects the global base value group used by the function to define IBase, UBase
and
SBase. Note that this function will only use IBase value.
Operation: Off or On to enable/disable the complete function.
FunctionMode: It defines the way the detection of failure of the breaker is performed. In the
mode
Current the current measurement is used for the detection. In the mode CB Pos, the CB
auxiliary contact status is used as indicator of failure of the breaker. The mode
Current or CB
Pos means that both ways of detections can be activated. CB Pos mode can be usable in
applications where the fault current through the circuit breaker is small. This can be the case
for some generator protection application (for example reverse power protection) or in case of
line ends with weak end infeed.
By setting the StartMode, it is possible to select how t1 and t2 timers are run and consequently
how output commands are given from the function:
• Option 1 - LatchedStart: “By external start signal which is internally latched”.
When function is once started by external START signal, the timers
t1 and t2 will always
elapse and then measurement criterion defined by parameter
FunctionMode will be
always checked in order to verify if the appropriate command shall be given out from the
function. Timers cannot be stopped by removing the external START signal. Function can
be started again only when all of the following three timers
t1, t2, and fixed timer of 150ms
in function internal design has expired and the measurement criterion defined by
parameter
FunctionMode has deactivated, see
Figure 103 . Note that this option
corresponds to the function behavior in previous versions of the 670 Series from version
1.0 up to and including version 2.1
• Option 2 - FollowStart: “Follow the external start signal only”.
The timers
t1 and t2 will run while external START signal is present. If they elapse then
measurement criterion defined by parameter
FunctionMode will be checked in order to
verify if the appropriate command shall be given out from the function. Timers can be
always stopped by resetting the external START signal, see Figure 104 .
•
Option 3 - FollowStart&Mode: “Follow external start signal and selected FunctionMode”.
The timers
t1 and t2 will run while external START signal is present and in the same time
the measurement criterion defined by parameter
FunctionMode is active. If they elapse
then the appropriate command will be given out from the function. Timers can be stopped
by resetting the external START signal or if the measurement criterion de-activates, see
Figure 105 .
When one of the two “follow modes” is used, there is a settable timer tStartTimeout which will
block the external START input signal when it times-out. This will automatically also reset the
t1 and t2 timers and consequently prevent any backup trip command. At the same time the
STALARM output from the function will have logical value one. To reset this signal external
START signal shall be removed. This is done in order to prevent unwanted operation of the
