Overvoltage Protection
Overvoltage protection serves to protect the electrical machine and connected electrical plant components
from the effects of inadmissible voltage increases. Overvoltages can be caused by incorrect manual operation
of the excitation system, faulty operation of the automatic voltage regulator, (full) load shedding of a gener-
ator, separation of the generator from the system or during island operation.
Functional Description
The overvoltage protection monitors one of the 6 voltage inputs of the device 7VE61 and 7VE63. A phase-
tophase voltage is usually connected. In case of a high overvoltage, tripping switchoff is performed with a
shorttime delay, whereas in case of less severe overvoltages, the switchoff is performed with a longer time
delay. Voltage thresholds and time delays can be set individually for both elements.
Each stage can be blocked individually and/or for both stages can be blocked, via binary input(s).
The following figure shows the logic diagram for the overvoltage protection function.

Setting Notes
General
Overvoltage protection is only effective and available if this function was set during protective function config-
uration (Section
, address 141)
OVERVOLTAGE
is set to
Enabled
. If the function is not
required
Disabled
is set. Address 4101
OVERVOLTAGE
serves to switch the function
ON
or
OFF
or to block
only the trip command (
Block relay
).
Setting Values
Using the parameter
