CHARGE CURRENT COMPENSATION
•
CHARGING CURRENT COMPENSATN
: This setting enables and disables the charging current calculations and cor-
rections of the mixed current used as an operating quantity for fault detectors and square pulses. The voltage signals
used for charging current compensation are taken from source 3 or 4 assigned with the three-phase voltage bank on
the L5 voltage bank. As such, it is critical to ensure that three-phase line voltage is assigned to this source and voltage
bank settings are entered correctly. Half (or one-third for the three-terminal line, as defined by the
87PC SCHEME
SELECT
setting) of the line charging current is subtracted from the line current.
This setting is forced to “Disabled” if a phase VT bank is not assigned at either source 3 or source 4.
The following diagram shows possible configurations.

•
CHARGE COMPENST BLOCK
: This setting selects an input to block charging current compensation. This input is
typically the VT fuse fail element of the source, where the three-phase VT is configured with this setting to block com-
pensation. Blocking charging current compensation at one end of the line does not block charging current compensa-
tion on the other end. However, even with compensation operating at one end ½ (or 1/3) of the charging current is still
removed from the net phase comparison current. Alternatively, the customer may choose to switch to another setting
group with more conservative phase comparison settings during a VT fuse fail condition.
•
POSITIVE and ZERO SEQUENCE CAPACITIVE REACTANCE:
The values of positive and zero sequence capacitive
reactance of the protected line are required for charging current compensation calculations. The line capacitive reac-
tance values should be entered in
primary kilo-ohms
for the total line length. Details of the charging current compen-
sation algorithm can be found in Chapter 8:
Theory of operation
.
If shunt reactors are also installed on the line, the resulting value entered in the
POS SEQ CAPACITIVE REACTANCE
and
ZERO SEQ CAPACITIVE REACTANCE
settings should be calculated as follows:
1.
No shunt reactors on the line or reactor current is subtracted from the line current, forcing the L60 to measure the
uncompensated by shunt reactors load/fault current plus the full charging current.
