M-3520 Intertie Protection Relay
Configuration Options
The M-3520 Intertie Protection Relay can be purchased with standard protective functions or as a base
system with reduced functionality. The user can also select optional protective functions as required to
expand the functionality of the Standard Protection System or Base System to satisfy specific application
needs. The optional Human-Machine Interface (HMI) Module, Target Module, and redundant power supply
are available for either configuration.
Metering
The relay provides metering of voltages (phase, neutral and sequence quantities), currents (phase, neutral
and sequence quantities), real power, reactive power, power factor and impedance measurements.
Metering Accuracies are:
Voltage
:
± 0.5 V or ± 0.5%, whichever is greater
&
0.8 V or
&
0.75%, whichever is greater (when line-ground to line-line is selected)
Current
:
5 A rating, ± 0.1 A or ± 3%, whichever is greater
1 A rating, ± 0.02 A or ± 3%, whichever is greater
Power
± 0.01 PU or ± 2%, whichever is greater
(real and reactive)
Frequency
:
± 0.02 Hz (from 57 to 63 Hz for 60 Hz models; from 47 to 53 Hz for 50 Hz models)
Oscillographic Recorder
The oscillograph recorder provides comprehensive data recording of all monitored waveforms, storing up to
170 cycles of data. The total record length may be user-configured for 1, 2, 3 or 4 partitions. The sampling
rate is 16 times the power system nominal frequency (50 or 60 Hz). The recorder is triggered either via the
designated status inputs, trip outputs, or via serial communications. When untriggered, the recorder
continuously stores waveform data, keeping the most recent data in memory. When triggered, the recorder
stores pre-trigger data, then continues to store data in memory for a user-defined, post-trigger delay period.
Target Storage
A total of 32 targets can be stored. Recorded information includes the type of function(s) operated, the
functions picked up, input/output contact status, timer status, and phase and neutral currents at the time of trip.
Calculations
Current and Voltage Values: Uses discrete Fourier transform algorithm on sampled (16 times per cycle)
voltage and current signals to extract fundamental frequency phasors for calculations.
Power Input Options
Nominal 110/120/230/240 V ac, 50/60 Hz, or nominal 110/125/220/250 V dc. Operates properly from 85 V ac
to 265 V ac and from 80 V dc to 288 V dc; Withstands 300 V ac or 300 V dc for 1 second; Burden 20 VA at
120 V ac/125 V dc.
Nominal 24/48 V dc. Operates properly from 18 V dc to 56 V dc; Withstands 65 V dc for 1 second; Burden
25 VA at 24 V dc and 30 VA at 48 V dc.
Unit is available with an optional redundant power supply.
Sensing Inputs
Five Voltage Inputs: Rated nominal voltage of 60 V ac to 140 V ac, 60 Hz (50 Hz optional). Withstands 240 V
continuous voltage and 360 V for 10 seconds. Source voltages may be line-to-ground or line-to-line connected.
Phase sequence ABC/ACB is selectable. Voltage transformer burden less than 0.2 VA at 120 V ac.
Four Current Inputs: Rated current (I
R
) of 5.0 A or 1.0 A (optional), 60 Hz (50 Hz optional). Withstands 2 I
R
continuous current and 100 I
R
for 1 second. Current transformer burden is less than 0.5 VA at 5 A (5 A
option), or 0.3 VA at 1 A (1 A option).
