A permanent fault will cause the line protection to trip again when it recloses in an
attempt to clear the fault.
The auto-reclosing function allows a number of parameters to be adjusted.
Examples:
•
number of auto-reclosing shots
•
auto-reclosing open times (dead time) for each shot
10.2.2.1
Auto-reclosing operation OFF and ON
Operation of the automatic reclosing can be set OFF and ON by a setting parameter
and by external control. Parameter
Operation
=
Off
, or
On
sets the function OFF and
ON. In setting
Operation
=
ExternalCtrl
, OFF and ON control is made by input signal
pulses, for example, from the control system or from the binary input (and other
systems).
When the function is set ON and operative (other conditions such as CB closed and CB
Ready are also fulfilled), the output SETON is activated (high). When the function is
ready to accept a reclosing start.
10.2.2.2
Start auto-reclosing and conditions for start of a reclosing cycle
The usual way to start a reclosing cycle, or sequence, is to start it at tripping by line
protection by applying a signal to the input START. Starting signals can be either,
General Trip signals or, only the conditions for Differential, Distance protection Zone
1 and Distance protection Aided trip. In some cases also Directional Earth fault
function Aided trip can be connected to start an Auto-Reclose attempt.
A number of conditions need to be fulfilled for the start to be accepted and a new auto-
reclosing cycle to be started. They are linked to dedicated inputs. The inputs are:
•
CBREADY, CB ready for a reclosing cycle, for example, charged operating gear.
•
CBPOS to ensure that the CB was closed when the line fault occurred and start
was applied.
•
No signal at input INHIBIT that is, no blocking or inhibit signal present. After the
start has been accepted, it is latched in and an internal signal “Started” is set. It can
be interrupted by certain events, like an “Inhibit” signal.
10.2.2.3
Start auto-reclosing from CB open information
If a user wants to initiate auto-reclosing from the "CB open" position instead of from
protection trip signals, the function offers such a possibility. This starting mode is
selected with the setting parameter
StartByCBOpen
=
On
. It is then necessary to block
reclosing for all manual trip operations. Typically
CBAuxContType
=
NormClosed
is
also set and a CB auxiliary contact of type NC (normally closed) is connected to inputs
CBPOS and START. When the signal changes from “CB closed” to “CB open” an
