5.4.23 Underimpedance protection (Z<; 21U)
Underimpedance protection is an alternative for voltage-restrained overcurrent protection. It can be
used to detect short-circuit faults near the generator even when the short-circuit current is small.
Additionally, under impedance protection can be used as backup protection for transformer protection.
Figure. 5.4.23 - 121. Operating characteristics of underimpedance protection.
The underexcitation function uses a total of eight (8) separate setting groups which can be selected
from one common source.
The function can operate on instant or time-delayed mode (DT).
The operational logic consists of the following:
• input magnitude selection
• input magnitude processing
• threshold comparator
• block signal check
• time delay characteristics
• output processing.
The inputs for the function are the following:
• operating mode selections
• setting parameters
