Troubleshooting Test Results
The following information is intended to help you troubleshoot relay tests if
the relay does not perform as you expected.
Table 13.9
Test Result Problems

Symptom
What to Check:
Incorrect Targets
Check the relay event report. Determine the
asserted elements at the instant the TRIP output was asserted.
Verify the ac connections by
plotting currents and voltages from event report data.
Verify the TR, TRCOMM, and TRSOTF settings
to ensure the appropriate elements are enabled to trip.
Verify the ULTR setting. If a trip occurs and does not unlatch
following clearance of the fault, new faults do not generate new
targets. You may need to turn off ac current applied to the relay,
deassert 52A inputs, or press the
{TARGET RESET}
button.
Incorrect Tripping
Check the current and voltage connections by applying small
signals to the connected current and voltage inputs. Trigger an event
report through use of the
TRIGGER
command. Plot the magnitude
and angle of measured currents and voltages.
Check the TR, TRCOMM, and TRSOTF
settings to determine which elements are enabled to trip.
Check the output logic equation settings
to determine which outputs are enabled to trip.
Check the settings of elements that are enabled to trip.
Check the settings of elements
that supervise elements that are enabled to trip.
Incorrect Distance
Element
Characteristic
Shape
Check the voltage and current connections by applying small
signals to the connected current and voltage inputs. Trigger an event
report through use of the
TRIGGER
command. Plot the magnitude
and angle of measured currents and voltages.
Verify the distance element settings, including Zone 1 Extension
logic settings.
Verify the supervisory overcurrent element settings that apply to the
element under test: 50PP overcurrent elements supervise the phase
distance elements; 50GZ and 50L overcurrent elements supervise
the ground mho and quadrilateral distance elements.
Verify the directional element settings. The element 32QF super-
vises forward-reaching phase and ground distance elements. The
element 32QR supervises reverse-reaching phase and ground
distance elements.
Verify the Loss-of-Potential (LOP) logic and element settings.
If ELOP = Y or Y1, the relay blocks operation of the distance
elements when LOP conditions are detected.
The Load-Encroachment function blocks operation of the relay
phase distance elements if measured positive-sequence impedance
is within a defined load characteristic. Verify your Load-Encroach-
ment logic settings and review event report data to determine if this
function is interfering with your phase distance element test.
Incorrect Contact
Operation
Check the logic equation settings to determine
which elements are enabled to operate the contact.
