• SOURCE setting — This setting is used to select the AC source to be monitored. See the Introduction to AC Sources
section later.
• PICKUP setting — For simple elements, this setting is used to program the level of the measured parameter above or
below which the pickup state is established. In more complex elements, a set of settings can be provided to define the
range of the measured parameters that cause the element to pick up.
• PICKUP DELAY setting — This setting sets a time-delay-on-pickup, or on-delay, for the duration between the pickup
and operate output states.
• RESET DELAY setting — This setting is used to set a time-delay-on-dropout, or off-delay, for the duration between the
operate output state and the return to logic 0 after the input transits outside the defined pickup range.
• BLOCK setting — The default output operand state of all comparators is a logic 0 or “flag not set.” The comparator
remains in this default state until a logic 1 is asserted at the RUN input, allowing the test to be performed. If the RUN
input changes to logic 0 at any time, the comparator returns to the default state. The RUN input is used to supervise
the comparator. The BLOCK input is used as one of the inputs to RUN control.
• TARGET setting — This setting is used to define the operation of an element target message. When set to "Disabled,"
no target message or illumination of a faceplate LED indicator is issued upon operation of the element. When set to
“Self-Reset,” the target message and LED indication follow the operate state of the element and self-resets once the
operate element condition clears. When set to “Latched,” the target message and LED indication remains visible after
the element output returns to logic 0 until a RESET command is received by the relay.
• EVENTS setting — This setting is used to control whether the pickup, dropout, or operate states are recorded by the
event recorder. When set to “Disabled,” element pickup, dropout, or operate are not recorded as events. When set to
“Enabled,” events are created for
<Element> PKP (pickup)
<Element> DPO (dropout)
<Element> OP (operate)
The DPO event is created when the measure and decide comparator output transits from the pickup state (logic 1) to
the dropout state (logic 0). This can happen when the element is in the operate state if the reset delay time is not zero.
Not every operand of a given element in a UR relay generates events, only the major output operands. Elements,
asserting output per phase, log operating phase output only, without asserting the common three-phase operand
event.
5.2.2 Introduction to AC sources
5.2.2.1 Background
The L60 is ordered with two CT/VT modules. If two breakers are involved in an application, the current must be summed
externally. With two CT/VT modules, the L60 allows the connection of two breaker CTs directly to the relay, processing the
currents individually for some functions and summing them for other functions by employing the sources mechanism. Two
CT/VT modules are generally required on systems with breaker-and-a-half or ring bus configurations.
In these applications, each of the two three-phase sets of individual phase currents (one associated with each breaker) can
be used as an input to a breaker failure element. The sum of both breaker phase currents and 3I_0 residual currents can
be required for the circuit relaying and metering functions. Two separate synchrocheck elements can be programmed to
check synchronization between two different buses VT and the line VT. These requirements can be satisfied with a single
L60, equipped with sufficient CT and VT input channels, by selecting proper parameter to measure. A mechanism is
provided to specify the AC parameter (or group of parameters) used as the input to protection/control comparators and
some metering elements. Selection of the measured parameters is partially performed by the design of a measuring
element or protection/control comparator by identifying the measured parameter type (fundamental frequency phasor,
harmonic phasor, symmetrical component, total waveform RMS magnitude, phase-phase or phase-ground voltage, and
so on). The user completes the process by selecting the instrument transformer input channels to use and some
parameters calculated from these channels. The input parameters available include the summation of currents from
multiple input channels. For the summed currents of phase, 3I_0, and ground current, current from CTs with different ratios
are adjusted to a single ratio before summation. A mechanism called a source configures the routing of CT and VT input
channels to measurement sub-systems.
