Note
The functions and default settings available depend on the device version ordered.
2.1.1.2
Control of the Main Protection Functions
Differential and Distance Protection
If the order option specifies that the 7SD5 universal line protection includes the distance protection, the device
can be operated in three modes:
1. Differential protection with distance protection
2. Differential protection only
3. Distance protection only
In mode 1, the distance protection operates in parallel with the differential protection. In this mode, both protec-
tion functions are configured (address
112
DIFF.PROTECTION
; address
115
Phase Distance
, address
116
Earth Distance
and address
117
Dis. PICKUP
), and can be switched
ON
or
OFF
with the addresses
1201
STATE OF DIFF.
and
1501
FCT Distance
. When the differential protection is switched off or blocked,
the distance protection continues to operate without restrictions.
You can also operate the differential protection without distance protection (mode 2, addresses
115
,
116
and
117
=
Disabled
). The device behaves in this case like a normal line differential protection relay.
In mode 3 the differential protection is not configured (address
112
DIFF.PROTECTION
=
Disabled
), the dis-
tance protection operates as main protection (provided that it is activated).

Setting Notes
Configuring the functional scope
The scope of functions with the available options is set in the
Functional Scope
dialog box to match plant re-
quirements.
Most settings are self-explanatory. The special cases are described below:
Special features
If use of the setting group changeover function is desired, address
103
Grp Chge OPTION
should be set to
Enabled
. In this case, up to four different groups of settings may be changed quickly and easily during device
operation (see also Section 2.1.3). With the setting
Disabled
only one parameter group is available.
Address
110
Trip mode
is only valid for devices that can trip single-pole or three-pole. Set
1-/3pole
to
enable also single-pole tripping, i.e. if you want to utilise single-pole or single-pole/three-pole automatic reclo-
sure. This requires that an internal automatic reclosure function exists or that an external reclosing device is
used. Furthermore, the circuit breaker must be capable of single-pole tripping.
Note
If you have changed address
110
, save your changes first via
OK
and reopen the dialog box since the other
setting options depend on the selection in address
110
.
