Description
The SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ80 relays can be used for line/
feeder protection of high and medium-voltage networks with
grounded, low-resistance grounded, isolated or a compensa-
ted neutral point. The relays have all the required functions
to be applied as a backup relay to a transformer differential
relay.
The SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ80 features “flexible protection
functions”. Up to 20 additional protection functions can be
created by the user. For example, a rate of change of fre-

quency function or a reverse power function can be created.
The relay provides circuit-breaker control, additional primary
switching devices (grounding switches, transfer switches
LSP3.01-0022.eps
and isolating switches) can also be controlled from the relay.
Automation or PLC logic functionality is also implemented in
the relay.
The integrated programmable logic (CFC) allows the user
to add own functions, e.g. for the automation of switch-
gear (including: interlocking, transfer and load shedding
schemes). The user is also allowed to generate user-defined
messages. The communication module is independent from
the protection. It can easily be exchanged or upgraded to
future communication protocols.

When applying the high-impedance measurement principle,
all current transformers in the protected area are connected
in parallel and operated through one common resistor of
relatively high R.
The voltage is measured across this resistor (see Fig. 2/6).
The voltage is measured by detecting the current through
the (external) resistor R at the sensitive current measure-
ment input IEE. The varistor V serves to limit the voltage in
the event of an internal fault. It limits the high instantaneous
voltage spikes that can occur at current transformer satura-
tion.
At the same time, this results to smooth the voltage without
any noteworthy reduction of the average value. If no faults
have occurred and in the event of external or through faults,
the system is at equilibrium, and the voltage through the
resistor is approximately zero. In the event of internal faults,
an imbalance occurs which leads to a voltage and a current
flowing through the resistor R.
The same type of current transformers must be used and
must at least offer a separate core for the high-impedance
restricted ground-fault protection. They must have the same

Thermal overload protection (ANSI 49)

To protect cables and transformers, an overload protection
function with an integrated warning/alarm element for
temperature and current can be used. The temperature is
calculated using a thermal homogeneous body model (per
IEC 60255-8), it considers the energy entering the equip-
ment and the energy losses. The calculated temperature is
constantly adjusted according to the calculated losses. The
function considers loading history and fluctuations in load.
Settable dropout delay times

If the relays are used in conjunction with electromechanical

relays, in networks with intermittent faults, the long dropout
times of the electromechanical relay (several hundred mil-
liseconds) can lead to problems in terms of time coordination/
grading. Proper time coordination/grading is only possible if
the dropout or reset time is approximately the same. This is
why the parameter for dropout or reset times can be defined
for certain functions, such as time-overcurrent protection,
ground short-circuit and phase-balance current protection.

or the remaining service life of a circuit-breaker that takes
2 arc-chamber’s physical conditions into account when the CB
opens.
This is why various methods of determining CB wear have
evolved which reflect the different operator philosophies. To
do justice to these, the relay offers several methods: P1: Permissible number
• ΣI of operating cycles
at rated normal
LSA4083en.eps
• ΣIx, with x = 1..3 current
• Σi2t. P2: Permissible number
of operating cycles
The devices also offer a new method for determining the at rated short-
remaining service life: circuit current Breaking current
• Two-point method
The CB manufacturers double-logarithmic switching cycle Fig. 2/8 Permissible number of operating cycles as a function of
diagram (see Fig. 2/8) and the breaking current at the time breaking current
of contact opening serve as the basis for this method. After Commissioning

To prevent transmission of information to the control center
during maintenance, the communications can be disabled
to prevent unnecessary data from being transmitted. During

for Low-Power Current Transformer Applications – Description
Description
The SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ81 provides 4 low-power current
transformer inputs. With the same low-power current trans-
former (LPCT) a wide range of primary rated line currents
1
can be covered. Objects with rated currents in the range
from 50 A to 5000 A can be protected when using low-power
current transformers with a transmission ratio of 50 A /
22.5 mV. Any other low-power current transformer with a
different transmission ratio can be combined with 7SJ81
(transmission ratio settable by software).

LSP3.01-0024-en.eps
Please refer to page 3/4 for a list of available low-power
current transformers from TRENCH.
The SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ81 relays can be used for line/
feeder protection of high and medium-voltage networks with
grounded, low-resistance grounded, isolated or a compensa- 3
ted neutral point. The relays have all the functionality to be
applied as a backup relay to a transformer differential relay.
The SIPROTEC Compact 7SJ81 offers highest reliability at
major functionality by the synergy of reliable algorithms
with newly developed hardware. The reliability is proven by
the experience in the field of almost 1,000,000 SIPROTEC 4
devices.
The relay provides numerous functions to respond flexibly to Fig. 3/1 7SJ81 front view
the system requirements and to deploy the invested capital
economically. Examples for this are: exchangeable interfaces,
flexible protection functions and the integrated automation
level (CFC). Freely assignable LEDs and a six-line display
5
ensure a unique and clear display of the process states.
In combination with up to 9 function keys, the operating
personnel can react quickly and safely in any situation. This
guarantees a high operational reliability.

Motor protection
Restart inhibit (ANSI 66/86)

If a motor is subjected to many successive
starts, the rotor windings or rotor bars can
be heated up to a point where the electrical
connections between the rotor bars and the
end rings are damaged. As it is not possible
to physically measure the heat of the rotor
we need to determine the heat by measuring
the current the rotor is drawing through the
stator to excite the rotor. A thermal replica
of the rotor is established using a I2t curve.
The restart inhibit will block the user from
starting the motor if the relay determined
that the rotor reached a temperature that
will damage the rotor should a start be
attempted. The relay will thus only allow a
restart if the rotor has a sufficient thermal
reserve to start (see Fig.). T - TRIP

Description
The SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 is a numerical, multi-function
relay for connection to voltage transformers. It can be used
in distribution systems, on transformers and for electrical
machines. If the SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 detects any
deviation from the permitted voltage, frequency or overex-
citation values, it will respond according to the values set.
The relay can also be applied for the purposes of system
decoupling and for load shedding if ever there is a risk of a
system collapse as a result of inadmissibly large frequency
drops. An integrated load restoration function allows the
re-establishment of the power system after recovery of the

In the 7SD80, three definite-time overcurrent protection stages
are integrated for protection against phase faults, as well as for
protection against earth faults. The current threshold and the
delay time can be set for each stage. Furthermore, inverse-time
overcurrent protection characteristics can be added.

monitored with a current criterion. Three-phase and single-
phase connections are possible.

Frequency protection can be used for overfrequency and un-
derfrequency protection. Electric machines and parts of the
system are protected from unwanted frequency deviations.
Unwanted frequency changes in the network can be detected
and the load can be removed at a specified frequency set-
ting. Frequency protection can be used over a wide frequen-
dV/dt cy range (± 10 Hz rated frequency). There are four elements

and each element can be delayed separately. Blocking of the
frequency protection can be performed by activating a binary
input or by using an undervoltage element.

Description
Description
The SIPROTEC 7SC80 feeder automation controller can be
used for protection and automation of medium-voltage dis-
tribution feeders with grounded or low-resistance grounded
neutral point.
The 7SC80 features “flexible protection functions”. 20
additional protection functions can be created by the user.
For example, a rate of change of frequency function or a
reverse power function can be created. The relay provides
circuit-breaker control. Additional primary switching devices
(grounding switches, transfer switches and isolating swit-
ches) can also be controlled from the relay. Automation or
PLC logic functionality is also implemented in the relay.

Construction and hardware
Housing with many advantages

The 7SC80 has a complete other form factor than all other
SIPROTEC Compact relays. It is slightly bigger (approx. 295
x 310 x 70 mm) because it has to carry some more external
interfaces with regards to other compact relays. All interfaces
are at the left and right hand side of the relay. A small print
onto the enclosure next to the clamps describes each port in
detail. All clamps are pluggable and therefore a pre-wiring
and easy replacement in case of maintenance is possible. A
short circuit is integrated in the pluggable CT clamp to avoid
SIP-COM-04.tif

any risk of unclosed secondary CT circuits.
The first eight binary inputs and the second four binary in-
puts have a common ground. The threshold is fixed for 24 V
and higher. The secondary values of the CTs 1 A or 5 A can
be set via DIGSI.
Fig. 7/4 Process terminal Fig. 7/5 Current terminal
The relay has a web-based HMI which provides 32 virtual
connections
LEDs and 9 programmable pushbuttons to configure short-
cuts for menu or various applications (see Fig. 7/6).
The 7SC80 variants are always equipped with at least one
single voltage input Vx. This input can be used to detect line
voltage of a single phase.
In the variant with a 24/48 V DC power supply, the relay is
equipped with an internal battery charger/management.
The relay can control charging and draining of batteries,
which are frequently used in pole mounted applications. An
external battery test resistor can be connected directly to the
relay. A switchable port which provides the battery voltage
to an external device is also available.
An optional internal GPS module can be ordered to provide
high accuracy time synchronization to each relay.
The 7SC80 relays are always equipped with either an electri-
cal or an optical Ethernet module running under IEC 61850.
The optical module is available with single mode ports to
