Importance Of Generator Protection
Scheme
Generator is a having vital importance in the generating stations. It is
one of the expensive equipments installed in thermal power plant.
Hence it is worth to have reliable and accurate protective system for
the generator. Though the protective relays cannot prevent the faults to
occur but the correct protection system can definitely avoid or minimize
the secondary damage to the generator under fault condition or
running under abnormal working conditions this includes external
faults, working beyond capability, etc.
Previous Generator Protection Scheme

Previously ABB Make Static conventional Generator protection Scheme was
installed at Parli Unit No. 4 during first commissioning of the unit.
During every annual over haul of the unit the protective relays are
being tested and the results of relay testing shows the generator
protection relays are loosing its accuracy and reliability, it was
observed since few years. Some of the relays getting mal operated
hence the reliability of operation was decreased. This might be due to
aging.
Most of the relays used were basically designed for 110Vdc and by
using voltage dropping resistances, those were used with 220 vdc
hence internal heating caused damage to the relays.
Also the relays were of old technology and the setting ranges were
limited. Hence it was difficult to set the relays accurately, according to
the generator capabilities.
The event logging and disturbance recording was not available with old
relays. Hence it was difficult to analyze the fault / events occurred and
the tripping analysis was based on imagination only.
The on-line healthiness checking was not available with old relays. This
was always creating doubt in the mind about the availability of
protection.
Considering the above it was necessary to change the generator

protection scheme.

 Calculation of settings for P343
1. Gen differential protection
Previous setting = 20mA, 100V
Setting for P343
Function- high impedance
Is1=250mA (min available setting)
Stabilizing resistance value
Rst = Vs/Is1= (1.5*If(Rct+2RL))/Is1
If – maximum through fault current that can flow through the generator
From previous SCC results
To circulate 9000A stator currents, excitation current required 1920A as
there is limit for maximum excitation that is 3200A therefore maximum short
circuit stator current corresponding to maximum excitation will be
Isc max=(3200*9000)/1920 A
= 15000 A (C.T. secondary 7.5 A)
Rct+2RL=3.2ohm (measured)
Rst=1.5*7.5*3.2/0.25
= 144 ohm
Actual set at 400 ohms , to get 100 V differential voltage.
2. Gen power protection
Operating mode generator
a) Reverse power protection
-P>1 = -20 watts (5.72 MW) minimum setting available on relay
selected
PSL time settings
Electrical RPP = 10 sec
Mechanical RPP = 1 sec (interlocked with turbine trip)
b) Generator low forward power protection
P>2 = 20 watts (5.72 MW) minimum setting available on relay
selected
Delay = 2 sec
PSL interlocked with turbine trip
PAGE 9 OF 58
3. Gen field failure protection
Previous settings
Xa1 = 2 ohm
Xa1 +Xb1 = 42.5 ohm
Hence Xb1 = 40.5 ohm delay 2
sec
Setting criteria
Xa1 = 0.5*Xd*CTR/PTR
Xd = 30.5% = 0.305 pu …………sub-transient reactance of generator
Xa1 = 0.5*Xd*(10000/5)*(110/15750)
Xd in ohms = Xd (pu)*kv*kv/MVA
= 0.305*15.75*15.75/247
=0.306311993 ohm
Xa1 = 2.139 ohm
Nearest settable value is 2.099 ohms
Xb1 = Xd * CTR/PTR
Xd (ohmic) = Xd(pu)*kv*kv/MVA
Xb1 = 2.22*(15.75*15.75/247)*(10000/5)*(110/15750)
= 31.14 ohm
Nearest settable value is 31.2 ohms
Time delay = 2 sec for trip
Field fail alarm angle = 25 degrees
Alarm delay = 1 sec
4. Negative phase sequence protection

Original setting
Start time capability
I22 *t = 8
I2 start = 7.5%
Continuous rated I2 = 5% of rated current
PAGE 10 OF 58
tmax = 300 sec
New settings
Alarm
I2>1 alarm enabled
I2>1 current setting
Alarm for 5% of Im
I2> 1 current set = I2 continuous rating (pu)*( Ifull load /Ip)*In
Ifull load = rated full load current in primary = 9050 A
Ip = Rated C.T. primary current = 10000 A
In = Rated C.T. secondary current = 5 A
I2>1 (set) = 0.05*9050*5/10000 = 0.226 A
Nearest available setting = 200 mA
Alarm delay = 2 sec
I2>2 trip enabled
I2 >2 start = 6%
I2>2 set = I2 start (pu)*( Ifull load /Ip)*In
= 0.06*9050*5/10000 = 0.271 A
Nearest settable value = 250 mA
K setting calculations
Generator capability for I2 is I22*t = 8
To operate the relay earlier than the capability of generator relay
characteristic selected I22*t = 7
in standard format kg = I22*t hence kg = 7
K = kg*(Ifull load/Ip)2
K = 7*(9050/10000)2 = 5.733
Nearest available setting of K = 5.7
Kreset
Kept same as K that is 5.7
I2>2 tmax
This is the maximum operating time for negative phase sequence
thermal characteristic
I2>2 tmax set at 500 sec (minimum setting available)
PAGE 11 OF 58
I2>2 tmin
This is the minimum operating time and set at 250 msec
5. Gen backup impedance protection
Original setting Z = 1.5 ohms (per phase)

Function under impedance
Z (G.T.) = 12.5%
Ohmic value of Z (G.T.) = Z(pu)*KV2/MVA
= 0.125*15.752/250
= 0.124 ohm
Impedance protection to be covered up to 220 KV bus bar that is Z
= Z(G.T.)
Z at C.T.,P.T. secondary level = Z*(CTR/PTR)
= 0.124*(10000/5)*(110/15750)
= 1.73 ohm
For three phase impedance 1.73*sqrt(3) = 2.996 ohm
Z<2 set = 3 Ohm (nearest setting available)
Time setting = 2.5 sec (considering the line under impedance time
setting that is to allow the line protections to clear the fault before
tripping of generator)
Z<1 setting (for P343 main only)

Setting criteria: for long faults and sustained overloading the setting
of this stage should be kept to operate at 30% overloading i.e. it
should be set at 70% impedance of the full load parameters of the
generator.
Zfull load at C.T., P.T. level = rated volts (phase to phase)/ Ifull load
= 110/4.525
= 24.3 ohms
Z 70% = Zfull load*0.7 = 24.3*0.7 = 17.01 ohms
Hence Z<1 setting = 17 ohms (nearest available value)
Z<1 delay = 5 sec

OFFICE – NOTE
Date: 15/05/2006
Sub: Approval for Modification of Generator Protection Scheme with
microprocessor based Integrated Generator Protection Relay.
Generator is a having vital importance in the generating stations. It is

one of the expensive equipments installed in thermal power plant. Hence it
is worth to have reliable and accurate protective system for the generator.
Though the protective relays cannot prevent the faults to occur but the
correct protection system can definitely avoid or minimize the secondary
damage to the generator under fault condition or running under abnormal
working conditions this includes external faults, working beyond capability,
etc.
Nowadays it is utmost to know the exact picture of occurrences

happened in the system. The occurrence may be happened due to internal
(Gen) fault or it may be due to external (Grid) reason, the analysis of
occurrence is very much important. Exact analysis can save lot of downtime
and ultimately money.
Presently ABB Make Electromagnetic Generator protection Scheme is

in service at Parli Unit No. 4 since commissioning of the unit.
The relays are of old technology and the setting ranges are limited.
Hence it is difficult to set the relays accurately, according to the generator
capabilities.
The event logging and disturbance recording is not available with

existing relays. Hence it is difficult to analyze the fault / events occurred and
the tripping analysis is based on imagination only.
PAGE 52 OF 58
The on-line healthiness checking is not available with existing relays.
This is always creating doubt in the mind about the availability of protection.
The existing relays are deteriorating due to ageing and heating of

relays (the voltage dropping resistances are provided inside the relays and
relays gets heated up). The deterioration is like hardening of internal control
wire, dry soldering of PCBs and cases of mal operations also noticed.
Similar modification has been done in unit No. 3 and working

satisfactory since oct. 2005. during this period it proved the imporatance of
disturbance recording during AC failuere and during the different disturbances
occurred. Also these relays are used in unit no. 2 during rehabilitation after
fire. The same relays are also being used in new parli.
Considering the above it is necessary to change the generator

protection scheme by Microprocessor based integrated Generator protection
relays.
Considering the vital importance of generator protection scheme two

numbers of relays are proposed (One as main and other as Redundant).
The relays proposed to procure vide G. O. – 2 / CS 93 clause No. 6
Total estimated amount for 2 relays is Rs 2200000/-
Budget provision is already made in 2006-07.
Submitted for approval please.
