Basic Protection Philosophy

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Protection - Why Is It Needed? All Power Systems may experience faults at some time. PROTECTION IS INSTALLED TO : X Detect fault occurrence and isolate the faulted equipment. SO THAT : X Damage to the faulted equipment is limited; X Disruption of supplies to adjacent unfaulted equipment is minimised. PROTECTION IS EFFECTIVELY AN INSURANCE POLICY - AN INVESTMENT AGAINST DAMAGE FROM FUTURE FAULTS. > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Protection - Why Is It Needed? FAULTS ON POWER SYSTEMS RISK : Severe damage to the faulted equipment : X Excessive current may flow; X Causes burning of conductors or equipment windings; X Arcing - energy dissipation; X Risk of explosions for oil - filled switchgear, or when in hazardous environments. Damage to adjacent plant : X As the fault evolves, if not cleared quickly; X Due to the voltage depression / loss of supply. > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Protection - Why Is It Needed? FAULTS ON POWER SYSTEMS RISK : Danger to staff or the public : X Risk of shock from direct contact with the faulted equipment; X Danger of potential (voltage) rises in exposed metalwork – accessible to touch; X Fumes released by burning insulation; X Burns etc. Disruption to adjacent plant : X Prolonged voltage dips cause motors to stall; X Loss of synchronism for synchronous generators / motors. > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Protection - Why Is It Needed?

SUMMARY : Protection must : X Detect faults and abnormal operating conditions; X Isolate the faulted equipment. So as to : X Limit damage caused by fault energy; X Limit effect on rest of system.

Autoreclose Benefits (1) X Improved continuity of supply Š Supply restoration is automatic (does not require human intervention) Š Shorter duration interruptions Š Less consumer hours lost X Use of instantaneous protection for faster fault clearance (NB: some healthy circuits may also be tripped) Š Less damage Š Less pre-heating of circuit breaker contacts (reduced maintenance?) Š Less chance of transient fault becoming permanent

Definitions & Considerations

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Classes of Protection Non-Unit, or Unrestricted Protection : No specific point downstream up to which protection will protect X Will operate for faults on the protected equipment; X May also operate for faults on downstream equipment, which has its own protection; X Need for discrimination with downstream protection, usually by means of time grading.

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Classes of Protection

Unit, or Restricted Protection : Has an accurately defined zone of protection X An item of power system plant is protected as a unit; X Will not operate for out of zone faults, thus no back-up protection for downstream faults.

Important Considerations When Applying Protection

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Important Considerations When Applying Protection

X Phase Discrimination Correct indication of phases involved in the fault Important for single phase tripping and autoreclosing applications

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Cost

The cost of protection is equivalent to an insurance policy against damage to plant, and loss of supply and customer goodwill. Acceptable cost is based on a balance of economics and technical factors. Cost of protection should be balanced against the cost of potential hazards. There is an economic limit on what can be spent. MINIMUM COST : Must ensure that all faulty equipment is isolated by protection. > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Cost

TOTAL COST should take account of : X Relays, schemes and associated panels and panel wiring X Setting studies X Commissioning X CTs and VTs X Maintenance and repairs to relays X Damage repair if protection fails to operate X Lost revenue if protection operates unnecessarily

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Cost DISTRIBUTION SYSTEMS X Large numbers of switching and distribution points, transformers and feeders X Economics often overrides technical issues X Protection may be the minimum consistent with statutory safety regulations X Speed less important than on transmission systems X Back-up protection can be simple and is often inherent in the main protection X Although important, the consequences of maloperation or failure to operate is less serious than for transmission systems > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Cost TRANSMISSION SYSTEMS X Emphasis is on technical considerations rather than economics X Economics cannot be ignored but is of secondary importance compared with the need for highly reliable, fully discriminative high speed protection X Higher protection costs justifiable by high capital cost of power system elements protected X Risk of security of supply should be reduced to lowest practical levels X High speed protection requires unit protection X Duplicate protections used to improve reliability X Single phase tripping and auto-reclose may be required to maintain system stability > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Important Considerations When Applying Protection Current and Voltage Transformers X These are an essential part of the protection scheme to reduce primary current and volts to a low level suitable to input to relay. X They must be suitably specified to meet the requirements of the protective relays. X Correct connection of CTs and VTs to the protection is important. In particular for directional, distance, phase comparison and differential protections. X VTs may be electromagnetic or capacitor types. X Busbar VTs : Special consideration needed when used for line protection. > Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Current Transformer Circuits

X X X X

Never open circuit a CT secondary circuit, so : Never fuse CT circuits; VTs must be fused or protected by MCB. Do wire test blocks in circuit (both VT and CT) to allow commissioning and periodic injection testing of relays. X Earth CT and VT circuits at one point only; Wire gauge > 2.5mm2 recommended for mechanical strength.

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Auxiliary Supplies Required for : TRIPPING CIRCUIT BREAKERS CLOSING CIRCUIT BREAKERS PROTECTION and TRIP RELAYS AC AUXILIARY SUPPLIES are only used on LV and MV systems. DC AUXILIARY SUPPLIES are more secure than AC supplies. SEPARATELY FUSED SUPPLIES used for each protection. DUPLICATE BATTERIES are occasionally provided for extra security. MODERN PROTECTION RELAYS need a continuous auxiliary supply. During unoperated (healthy) conditions, they draw a small ‘QUIESCENT’ load to keep relay circuits energised. During operation, they draw a larger current which increases due to operation of output elements.

> Basic Protection Philosophy - January 2004

Relay Outputs TRIP OUTPUT CONTACTS : X Check that these are rated sufficiently to make and carry the circuit breaker trip coil current. If not, a heavier duty tripping relay will be needed. X Use a circuit breaker normally open (52a) contact to interrupt trip coil current. This extends the life of the protection relay trip contacts. TYPE OF CONTACTS : Make (M) / Normally Open (NO)

Close when energised, typically used for tripping.

Break (B) / Normally Closed (NC)

Close when de-energised.

Changeover (C/O)

Can be break before make (BBM) or make before break (MBB).

Protective Relays Primary Function

¾ Detection of faults on primary power system plant

Š Feeders Š Transformers Š Busbar Š Generators Š Motors ¾ The relay must identify faults on the protected plant section and isolate this from power system. ¾ The relay should remain stable for faults, or system instabilities outside of protected section, unless required to do so as back-up protection. 4

5

> Relay design tutorial - Feb 2005

5

Protective Relays Technologies Employed (1) ¾ ELECTROMECHANICAL (1950) These relays typically use attracted armature or induction disc type elements to implement the protection functions. The emphasis is on an electromagnetic force causing mechanical operation of the relay. ¾ Single Function Devices ¾ Configured by selection and manual settings ¾ Outputs via contact, need for auxiliary relays ¾ Local Indications via Flag

6

> Relay design tutorial - Feb 2005

6

Protective Relays Technologies Employed (2) ¾ STATIC (1970) Static implies that the relay does not have moving parts to create its characteristic, however the trip output contacts would generally be of attracted armature type. Static relays use discrete electronic components (generally analogue devices) for creation of the operating characteristics. ¾ More Compact, higher level of integration ¾ Lower maintenance ¾ Configuration via switches ¾ Indication via LED

7

> Relay design tutorial - Feb 2005

7

Protective Relays Technologies Employed (3) ¾ DIGITAL (1980) Digital relays use microprocessors/micro-controllers to implement protection elements, rather than relying on discrete analogue components. Protection functions are not generally implemented by mathematical algorithms - the only numerical states within the relay are high/low logic (logic one or zero). ¾ Internal logic is more flexible using DIP switches ¾ Devices and smaller, less expensive ¾ Use of keypad/LED interfaces on some digital units ¾ Application of scheme not significantly altered

8

> Relay design tutorial - Feb 2005

8

Protective Relays Technologies Employed (4) ¾ NUMERICAL (Today) Numerical technology implies sampling of the relay inputs, then A/D conversion into number format. These numbers are then used by mathematical algorithms which generate the relay operating characteristics. Š Integration of multiple protection and control functional blocks Š High level of flexibility Š Each device implements complex submodule of complete scheme Š Integrated measurement and recording facilities Š Advanced communication facilities

Sequence Networks (1)

It can be shown that providing the system impedances are balanced from the points of generation right up to the fault, each sequence current causes voltage drop of its own sequence only.

Regard each current flowing within own network thro’ impedances of its own sequence only, with no interconnection between the sequence networks right up to the point of fault.

Sequence Networks (2)

X +ve, -ve and zero sequence networks are drawn for a ‘reference’ phase. This is usually taken as the ‘A’ phase. X Faults are selected to be ‘balanced’ relative to the reference ‘A’ phase. e.g. For Ø/E faults consider an A-E fault For Ø/Ø faults consider a B-C fault X Sequence network interconnection is the simplest for the reference phase.

Establishing Direction:- Polarising Quantity

The DIRECTION of Alternating Current may only be determined with respect to a COMMON REFERENCE. In relaying terms, the REFERENCE is called the POLARISING QUANTITY. The most convenient reference quantity is POLARISING VOLTAGE taken from the Power System Voltages.

Directional Earth Fault Requirements are similar to directional overcurrent i.e. need operating signal and polarising signal Operating Signal obtained from residual connection of line CT's i.e. Iop = 3Io Polarising Signal The use of either phase-neutral or phase-phase voltage as the reference becomes inappropriate for the comparison with residual current.

Current Polarising A solidly earthed, high fault level (low source impedance) system may result in a small value of residual voltage at the relaying point. If residual voltage is too low to provide a reliable polarising signal then a current polarising signal may be used as an alternative. The current polarising signal may be derived from a CT located in a suitable system neutral to earth connection. e.g.

Differential Feeder Protection Why Needed ? -

Overcomes application difficulties of simple overcurrent relays when applied to complex networks, i.e. co-ordination problems and excessive fault clearance times. Basic Principle Involves measurement of current at each end of feeder and Transmission of information between each end of feeder

Protection should operate for faults inside the protected zone (i.e. the feeder) but must remain stable for faults outside the protected zone. Thus can be instantaneous in operation. 3

Generator Protection Requirements

To detect faults on the generator To protection generator from the effects of abnormal power system operating conditions To isolate generator from system faults not cleared remotely

Action required depends upon the nature of the fault.

Usual to segregate protection functions into : Urgent Non-urgent Alarm 5

5

Generator Faults Mixture of mechanical and electrical problems. Faults include :Insulation Failure Stator Rotor

Excitation system failure Prime mover / governor failure Bearing Failure Excessive vibration Low steam pressure etc.

Generator Protections to be Considered Earth faults on stator and generator connections Phase faults on stator and generator connections Interturn faults on stator Backup protection :- External Earth faults External Phase faults Failure of prime mover Loss of field Unbalanced loading Rotor earth faults and interturn faults Overload Failure of speed governing system Sudden loss of load

8

8

Stator Earth Fault Protection

Fault caused by failure of stator winding insulation Leads to

burning of machine core welding of laminations

Rebuilding of machine core can be a very expensive process Earth fault protection is therefore a principal feature of any generator protection package TYPE OF PROTECTION

9

METHOD OF EARTHING

METHOD OF CONNECTION 9

Method of Earthing (1) Machine stator windings are surrounded by a mass of earthed metal Most probable result of stator winding insulation failure is a phase-earth fault Desirable to earth neutral point of generator to prevent dangerous transient overvoltages during arcing earth faults Several methods of earthing are in use Damage resulting from a stator earth fault will depend upon the earthing arrangement

10

10

Method of Earthing (2)

Solidly Earthed Machines :

Fault current is high Rapid damage occurs burning of core iron welding of laminations

Used on LV machines only

11

11

Method of Earthing (3) Desirable to limit earth fault current : limits damage reduces possibility of developing into phase-phase fault Degree to which fault current is limited must take into account : detection of earth faults as near as possible to the point ease of discrimination with system earth fault protection (directly connected machines)

12

neutral

12

Method of Earthing : Limitation of Earth Fault Current (1) Less than 5A :

F

Earth faults on the power system are not seen by the generator earth fault protection.

Discrimination not required ∴ can limit current to very low value. 20A : Used on oil and gas platforms. Limits power supply disturbance, but still enables grading of up to 3 zones.

13

13

Method of Earthing : Limitation of Earth Fault Current (2)

100A : As for 20A, but higher current allows better discrimination and sensitivity. Generator Full Load Current (1200A max) : Most popular. Used for ease of fault detection and discrimination. Residual connection of CTs can be used, BUT Can result in serious core damage.

14

14

Stator Earth Fault Protection and Protection Against Earth Faults on Generator Connections Depending on the Generator arrangement this can be provided by :Time delayed overcurrent protection Time delayed earth fault protection Sensitive earth fault protection Neutral displacement voltage relay Neutral displacement voltage detection by overcurrent relay High impedance restricted earth fault protection High impedance differential protection Biased differential protection Directional earth fault protection 100% stator earth fault protection

15

15

Overcurrent Protection (1) For small generators this may be the only protection applied. With solid earthing it will provide some protection against earth faults. For a single generator, CTs must be connected to neutral end of stator winding.

51 16

16

Overcurrent Protection (2) For parallel generators, CTs can be located on line side.

Stator Phase-Phase Fault Protection (1)

Phase-phase faults caused by :

Insulation failure Flashover in terminal box

Majority of phase-phase faults begin as earth faults. High fault current causes rapid damage ∴ fast protection required.

Prime Mover Failure (1) Isolated Generators : Machine slows down and stops. Other protection initiates shut down.

Parallel Sets : System supplies power - generator operates as a motor. Seriousness depends on type of drive.

Steam Turbine Sets : Steam acts as a coolant. Loss of steam causes overheating. Turbulence in trapped steam causes distortion of turbine blades. Motoring power 0.5% to 6% rated. Condensing turbines, rate of heating slow. Loss of steam instantly recognised.

41

Prime Mover Failure (2) Diesel Driven Sets : Prime mover failure due to mechanical fault. Serious mechanical damage if allowed to persist. Motoring power from 35% rated for stiff machine, to 5% rated for run in machine.

Gas Turbines : Motoring power 100% rated for single shaft machine, 10% to 15% rated for double shaft.

Hydro Sets : Mechanical precautions taken if water level drops. Low head types - erosion and cavitation of runner can occur. Additional protection may be required.

Unbalanced Loading (1)

Effects Gives rise to negative phase sequence (NPS) currents results in contra-rotating magnetic field. Stator flux cuts rotor at twice synchronous speed. Induces double frequency current in field system and rotor body. Resulting eddy currents cause severe over heating.

50

50

Unbalanced Loading (2) Protection Machines are assigned NPS current withstand values : * *

Continuous NPS rating, I2R Short time NPS rating, I22t

If possible level of system unbalance approaches machin continuous withstand, protection is required. Use negative sequence overcurrent relay. Relay should have inverse time characteristic to match generator I22t withstand. Relay pick-up setting should be just below I2R rating. Can use an alarm setting of 70% to 100% to pick-up. 51

Under & Over Frequency Conditions (1)

Over Frequency Results from generator over speed caused by sudden loss of load. In isolated generators may be due to failure of speed governing system. Over speed protection may be provided by mechanical means. Desirable to have over frequency relay with more sensitive settings.

64

64

Under & Over Frequency Conditions (2) Under Frequency Results from loss of synchronous speed due to excessive overload. In isolated generators may be due to failure of speed governing system. Under frequency condition gives rise to: Overfluxing of stator core at nominal volts Plant drives operating at lower speeds - can affect generator output Mechanical resonant condition in turbines

Desirable to supply an under frequency relay. Protection may be arranged to initiate load shedding as a first step.

65

65

Under & Over Voltage Conditions (1)

66

66

Under & Over Voltage Conditions (2) Over Voltage Results from generator over speed caused by sudden loss of load. May be due to failure of the voltage regulator. An over voltage condition : Causes overfluxing at nominal frequency Endangers integrity of insulation

MiCOM P341 Applications G59 Protection Equipment Voltage Vector Shift Protection An expression for a sinusoidal mains voltage waveform is generally given by the following: V = Vp sin (wt) or V = Vp sin θ (t) where

θ(t) = wt = 2πft

If the frequency is changing at constant rate Rf from a frequency fo then the variation in the angle θ(t) is given by: θ(t) = 2π∫f dt, (F = Fo + Rf t) which gives

θ(t) = 2π{fo t + t Rf t/2}

and

V = V sin {2π(fo + t Rf/2)t}

Hence the angle change ∆θ(t) after time t is given by: ∆θ(t) = πRf t2

Current Transformer Ratings (1) Rated Burden X Value of burden upon which accuracy claims are based X Usually expressed in VA X Preferred values :2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 15, 30 VA

Continuous Rated Current X Usually rated primary current

Short Time Rated Current X Usually specified for 0.5, 1, 2 or 3 secs X No harmful effects X Usually specified with the secondary shorted

Rated Secondary Current X Commonly 1, 2 or 5 Amps 24

24

Current Transformer Ratings (2) Rated Dynamic Current Ratio of :IPEAK : IRATED (IPEAK = Maximum current C.T. can withstand without suffering any damage). Accuracy Limit Factor - A.L.F. (or Saturation Factor) Ratio of :IPRIMARY : IRATED up to which the C.T. rated accuracy is maintained. e.g. 200 / 1A C.T. with an A.L.F. = 5 will maintain its accuracy for IPRIMARY < 5 x 200 = 1000 Amps 25

25

Choice of Ratio Clearly, the primary rating IP ≥ normal current in the circuit if thermal (continuous) rating is not to be exceeded. Secondary rating is usually 1 or 5 Amps (0.5 and 2 Amp are also used). If secondary wiring route length is greater than 30 metres - 1 Amp secondaries are preferable. A practical maximum ratio is 3000 / 1. If larger primary ratings are required (e.g. for large generators), can use 20 Amp secondary together with interposing C.T. e.g. 5000 / 20 - 20 / 1 26

Due to the machine construction internal phase-phase faults are almost impossible Most phase-phase faults occur at the machine terminals or occasionally in the cabling Ideally the S/C protection should be set just above the max Istart (I>>=1.25Istart), however, there is an initial start current of up to 2.5Istart which rapidly reduces over 3 cycles – Increase I>> or delay tI>> in small increments according to start conditions – Use special I>> characteristic

Argues z z

08/02 2 05/02/03

There are fewer faults on busbars than on other parts of the power system. No risk of dislocation of system due to accidental operation of busbar protection. 2

Drawbacks z

08/02 3 05/02/03

Slow fault clearance. Busbar faults at F1 and F2 are cleared by remote time delayed protection on circuits feeding the faults: Time Delayed Overcurrent or Time Delayed Distance Protection 3

Busbar Faults Are Usually Permanent Causes of Busbar Faults : z

Falling debris

z

Insulation failures

z

Circuit breaker failures

z

Current transformer failures

z

Isolators switchs operated on load or outside their ratings

z

Safety earths left connected

Therefore : Circuit breakers should be tripped and locked out by busbar protection 08/02 1105/02/03

11

Busbar Protection must be : z

RELIABLE – Failure to trip could cause widespread damage to the substation

08/02 1205/02/03

z

STABLE – False tripping can cause widespread interruption of supplies to customers / possible power system instability

z

DISCRIMINATING – Should trip the minimum number of breakers to clear the fault

z

FAST – To limit damage and possible power system instability
