Negative sequence overcurrent - 46
Preface
Two operation thresholds, independently adjustable (
I
2
>,
I
2
>>) with adjustable delay (
t
2
>,
t
2
>>).
The first one may be programmed with definite or inverse time according the IEC and ANSI/IEEE
standard, as well as with I
2
t or EM curve.
The second threshold has a definite time characteristic.
For each threshold a reset time can be set (
t
2>RES
,
t
2>>RES
) useful to reduce the clearing time for
intermittent faults.
The first threshold trip may be inhibited by start of the second threshold (
I
2
>>).
Operation and settings
The negative sequence current is computed as:
I
2
=(
I
L1
+e-
j120°
·
I
L2
+e
+j120°
·
I
L3
)/3
where e
-j120°
=-1/2-j√3/2, e
j120°
=-1/2+j√3/2.
The negative sequence current is compared with the setting values. Currents above the associated
pickup value are detected and a start is issued. After expiry of the associated operate time (
t
2
>,
t
2
>>)
a trip command is issued; if instead the current drops below the threshold, the element is restored.
The first threshold (
I
2
>) may be programmed with definite or inverse time according the following
characteristic curves:
• Standard Inverse Time (IEC 255-3/BS142 type A or SIT):
t

The second threshold has a definite time characteristic.
For all inverse time characteristics, following data applies:
• Asymptotic reference value (minimum pickup value): 1.1
I
2
>
inv
• Minimum operate time: 0.1
s
• Range where the equation is valid:
[1]
1.1 ≤
I
2
/
I
2
>
inv
≤ 20
For all definite time elements the upper limit for measuring is 50
I
n
.
All overcurrent elements can be enabled or disabled by setting
ON
or
OFF
the
I2> Enable
and/or
I2>> Enable
parameters inside the
Set \ Profile A(or B) \ Negative sequence overcurrent - 46 \
I2> Element
(
I2>> Element) \ Setpoints
menus.
The first overcurrent element can be programmed with definite or inverse time characteristic by
setting the
I2>Curve
parameter (
DEFINITE, IEC/BS A, IEC/BS B, IEC/BS C, ANSI/IEE MI,
ANSI/IEE VI, ANSI/IEE EI, I2t, EM
) available inside the
Set \ Profile A(or B) \ Negative sequence
overcurrent - 46 \
I2> Element \ Setpoints
menu.
The trip of
I2

I2

ting
ON
the Disable I2> by start I2>> (
I2>disbyI2>>
) parameter available inside the
Set \ Profile A(or B) \ Negative sequence overcurrent-46 \ I2>> Element \ Setpoints

Note 1 When the input value is more than 20 times the set point , the operate time is limited to the value corresponding to 20 times the set point
