Description
A
A fault summary report and an oscillograph record are triggered when either the SG-
TRIGGER pickup or logic expression becomes TRUE. These reports are also triggered
through the HMI interface by issuing the ASCII command RF=TRIG.
B
During the time that the SG-TRIGGER trip expression is TRUE, targets are logged from
each of the protective functions that reach a trip state. If a protective function is not being
used for tripping purposes, the associated target function can be disabled through the SG-
TARG setting.
C
Fault clearing time is calculated as the duration of the time that either the SG-TRIGGER
pickup or logic expression is TRUE.
D
Breaker operate time is calculated as the time from when the SG-TRIGGER trip expression
becomes TRUE until the fast-dropout current detector senses that the breaker has
successfully interrupted the current in all poles of the breaker.
E
A second oscillographic record is triggered to record the end of the fault if the SG-TRIGGER
pickup or logic trigger expression remains in the TRUE state at the time that the first
oscillographic record ends. This second record will have from ¼ to five cycles of pre-trigger
data depending upon when both the SG-TRIGGER pickup and logic expressions become
FALSE.
F
Recorded fault current magnitudes are displayed on the Target screen of the optional HMI. If
the SG_TRIGGER TRIP expression does not become TRUE, the fault was cleared by a
down stream device. For these pickup-only events, fault current recorded in the fault
summary report will be for the power system cycle ending two cycles prior to the end of the
fault record. This is also the case if the fault record was triggered through the ASCII
command interface by the RF=TRIG command.
G
During the time that the SG-TRIGGER pickup expression is TRUE, the red Trip LED on the
front panel flashes indicating that the relay is picked up.
H
During the time the SG-TRIGGER trip expression is TRUE, the red Trip LED on the front
panel lights steadily indicating that the relay is in a tripped state. If targets have been logged
for the fault, the Trip LED is sealed in until the targets have been reset.
I
Breaker operations and interruption duty functions are driven by the breaker status function.
The operations counter is incremented on breaker opening. The magnitudes of the currents
that are used for accumulating breaker duty are recorded for the power system cycle ending
when the breaker status changes state. Thus, breaker duty is accumulated every time that
the breaker opens even if it is not opening under fault.
J
The transformer through fault counter is incremented each time that the SG-TRIGGER
pickup expression returns to FALSE. The time used in calculating
It
or
I
2
t
for transformer
through fault duty monitoring is the time that the SG-TRIGGER pickup expression in TRUE.
K
Setting group changes are blocked when the SG-TRIGGER pickup expression is TRUE to
prevent protective functions from being reinitialized with new operating parameters while a
fault is occurring.
Setting the Breaker Duty Monitoring Function
Breaker Duty Monitoring settings are made using BESTCOMS. Figure 6-10 illustrates the BESTCOMS
screen used to select settings for the Breaker Duty Monitoring function for Circuits 1 or 2. To open the
screen, select Reporting and Alarms from the Screens pull-down menu. Then select the Breaker
Monitoring tab. Alternately, settings may be made using the SB-DUTY ASCII command.
