Fault tracing Chapter 13
Fault tracing and repair
The internal events are time tagged with a resolution of 1 ms and stored in a list. The list can
store up to 40 events. The list is based on the FIFO principle, when it is full, the oldest event is
overwritten. The list cannot be cleared; its content cannot be erased.
The internal events in this list not only refer to faults in the IED, but also to other activities, such
as change of settings, clearing of disturbance reports, and loss of external time synchronization.
The information can only be retrieved with the aid of the PST software package. The PC can be
connected either to the port at the front or at the rear of the IED.
These events are logged as internal events.
Table 24: Events available for the internal event list in the IED
The events in the internal event list are time tagged with a resolution of 1 ms.
This means that when using the PC for fault tracing, it provides information on the:
