Chapter 12Instrumentation Elements
This chapter addresses editors for all Instrumentation elements in the One-Line Diagram. Except for theelement IDs, bus connections, and status, all other data that appear in the editors are consideredengineering properties, which are subject to Base & Revision Data. The following table lists all theInstrumentation elements in ETAP as seen from the Instrumentation (Inst) toolbar.Transformers Current Transformer Potential TransformerMetersVoltmeterMultimeterAmmeterRelaysVoltage RelayFrequency RelayMotor RelayPower RelayMV Solid State RelayOvercurrent RelayDifferential RelayTag Link Multi-Function Relay

ID
Enter a unique ID with up to 25 alphanumeric characters.ETAP automatically assigns a unique ID to each current transformer. The assigned IDs consist of thedefault current transformer ID plus an integer, starting with the number one and increasing as the numberof current transformers increase. The default current transformer ID (CT) can be changed from theDefaults Menu in the menu bar or from the Project View.

From & To
Bus IDs for the connecting buses of a current transformer are designated as From and To buses. If aterminal of current transformer (From or To) is not connected to any bus, a blank entry will be shown forbus ID. If a terminal of a current transformer is connected to a branch (directly or indirectly), the ID of the branch will be displayed for the terminal connection. To connect or reconnect a current transformer toa bus, select a bus from the list box. The one-line diagram will be updated to show the new connectionafter you click on OK. Note that you can only connect to buses that reside in the same view where thecurrent transformer resides, i.e., you cannot connect to a bus that resides in Dumpster or in anothercomposite network.If a current transformer is connected to a bus through a number of other protective devices, reconnectionof the current transformer to a new bus from this editor will reconnect the last existing protective deviceto the new bus, as shown below where CT2 is reconnected from Bus10 to Bus4.ETAP displays the
 
nominal kV of the buses next to the From and To bus IDs for your convenience.
Reverse Polarity
Check the Reverse Polarity box to change the polarity of the current transformer.
Condition
 
Service
The operating condition can be set by clicking on the radio buttons for either In Service or Out of Service.The engineering properties within the editor of an Out of Service element can be edited like an In Serviceelement; however, an Out of Service element will not be included in any system studies. When thecontinuity check is activated, an Out of Service element is automatically color coded with the deenergizedcolor (theme manager). The default color for a deenergized element is grey.
Note
: The In/Out of Service option is independent of the configuration status. Therefore, you can set abranch to be In Service for the Base Data and Out of Service in Revision Data.
State
State is used to describe the service status of an element. Certain states have flexible service status likeAs-Built, New, Future, Moved and Modified can be both In or Out of Service. Certain states have fixedservice status like Removed, Warehouse, Abandoned, Repair Shop and Other are out of service states.
