magnitude of all three phase current or voltages goes below
Current block value and
Voltage block value respectively, the timer reset state is activated. The reset timer
depends on the
Reset delay time setting.
The Timer 1 calculates the start duration value START_DUR, which indicates the
percentage ratio of the start situation and the set operating time. The value is
available in the Monitored data view.
Timer 2
Once activated, the Timer 2 activates the alarm timer. The timer characteristic is
according to DT. When the alarm timer has reached the value set by
Alarm delay
time in the DT mode, the
ALARM
output is activated. If a drop-off situation occurs,
that is, a power factor improves and exceeds the
Alarm reset value in the direction
as defined by
Dir alarm reset value before the alarm delay is exceeded or either
magnitude of all three phase current or voltages goes below
Current block value and
Voltage block value respectively, the timer reset state is activated. The reset timer
depends on the
Reset delay time setting.
Blocking logic
There are three operation modes in the blocking function. The operation modes
are controlled by the
BLOCK
input and the global setting in Configuration >
System > Blocking mode which selects the blocking mode. The
BLOCK
input can be
controlled by a binary input, a horizontal communication input or an internal signal
of the protection relay's program. The influence of the BLOCK signal activation is
preselected with the global setting
Blocking mode.
The
Blocking mode setting has three blocking methods. In the "Freeze timers"
mode, the operation timer is frozen to the prevailing value, but the
OPERATE
output
is not deactivated when blocking is activated. In the "Block all" mode, the whole
function is blocked and the timers are reset. In the "Block OPERATE output" mode,
the function operates normally but the
OPERATE
output is not activated.
4.8.4.6 Application
The MPUPF function can be used to detect loss of excitation or for power factor
correction. Synchronous motors are mostly operated at leading power factor and
its operation as lagging power for extended period can be used an indication of an
out-of-step condition possibly caused by under or loss of excitation. To detect such
a situation, the relay is typically set to operate when the current into a motor lags
more than 30 degrees, that is, a power factor goes below +0.87 lagging.
The function provides alarm facility which can be used as an early indication that
the power factor is moving outside the allowable range; therefore the
Alarm value
setting should be set higher than the
Start value. The delay time for alarm should
also be set as low as possible, only long enough to prevent spurious activation of
the output.
In a power factor correction application, the
ALARM
and
START
outputs can be used
as controls to switch in capacitive loads when the
Alarm value and Start value
settings, respectively, are exceeded. The
ALARM
output is set for a higher value
to add the first corrective load and the
START
output set for a second stage of
corrective load, if needed. The
Start reset value and Alarm reset value settings allow
their respective outputs to remain activated to maintain the correction after power
factor rises as a result, but to drop out after it reaches a level where corrective
capacitive loading is no longer needed.
