Overview
Applications
PCS-9691 provides a cost-effective protection &
control solution for distribution system. The relay offers
extensive protection, control, monitoring and measuring
functions in one enclosed unit. The relay is suitable for
the application in solidly grounded, impedance grounded,
Peterson coil grounded or ungrounded networks. The
hardware is designed for the installation in distribution
cabinets.
• The draw-out structure is adopted in the hardware
design to achieve convenient maintenance without
opening the cabinet door.
• Operating temperature: –40° to +70°C (for LCD –20°
to +70°C)
• Combined 1/5A current inputs are integrated.
• Wide-range power supply is integrated with24–
250Vdc, or 110–240Vac
• The CT terminals are automatically short-circuited
when the relay is drawn out.
• Four current inputs, four voltage inputs, fifteen binary
inputs and eight binary outputs are supported by the
relay. Two binary outputs provide one NC contact and
one NO contact.
• The relay integrates the full flexibility including
configurable binary inputs/outputs, self-definable
LEDs, programmable logics. And it is easy to assign
any binary input and output signal to the internal logic
circuits via PCS-Explorer.
• Two Ethernet ports (one optical and one RJ-
45) and one RS-485 port are provided for remote
communication. The protocol supports IEC 61850
(Ethernet), IEC 60870-5-103 (RS-485), MODBUS
(Ethernet and RS-485) and DNP3.0 (Ethernet and
RS-485).
• Time synchronization with IRIG-B or pulse-per-second
(PPS) is provided based on the differential-level
interface (three-wire: sync+, sync- and shield).
• Fourteen configurable 3-color LEDs, two fixed LEDs
and four button LEDs are provided for indication.
• The relay can be configured, set and commissioned
via PCS-Explorer assistant tool.
• External wirings and size are designed for easy
replacement of an existing relay.
• Both 50Hz & 60Hz are supported in this relay.
• 10 setting groups are supported for various operating
scenarios.
• Enhanced screw terminals are employed for AC
voltage/current, binary input and binary output.

Features
• High-setting and low-setting elements are provided for
Restricted Earth Fault protection (REF). CT saturation
detection element is integrated for the blocking of low-
setting REF. The CT ratio compensation is provided
to eliminate the unbalance due to CT ratio.
• Six-stage over- & under- frequency protections and
four-stage change-of-frequency (df/dt) are integrated
to implement load shedding and other control
schemes. The over- & under- frequency protection
is controlled by voltage element to avoid the mal-
operation due to short-circuit faults.
• Cold load pickup logic is integrated to automatically
increase the setting of phase overcurrent and zero
sequence overcurrent protections to improve the
adaptability for various loads.
• Fault locator function is integrated for the post-fault
checking and maintenance.
• Dead zone protection is integrated to clear the faults
between the CT coil and the circuit breaker.
• Directional power element is provided for the reverse
power protection or forward power protection.
• Thermal model based on IEC60255-8 standard
is integrated for thermal overload protection. The
fundamental current and 2nd to 7th harmonics are
utilized for thermal accumulation.
• Broken conduct protection can be automatically
blocked for a very short time to avoid the mal-
operation due to the circuit breaker switching.
• Up to six stages of phase overcurrent protection
are provided for various applications. Four stages
can be controlled by directional element, harmonic
blocking element and voltage element (phase-phase
undervoltage or negative sequence overvoltage)
• Up to six stages of neutral/ground(zero sequence)
overcurrent protection are integrated. Four stages can
be controlled by directional element and harmonic
blocking element.
• 12 IDMT curves are integrated: five IEC curves
(short time inverse, standard inverse, very inverse,
extremely inverse, long time inverse), six IEEE/
ANSI curves (short time inverse, moderately inverse,
inverse, very inverse, extremely inverse, long time
inverse) and one self-defined curve.
• Self-adaptive polarized voltage is employed for
directional element to avoid the mal-operation due to
the close-in severe three-phase faults. The memorized
voltage or measured voltage is automatically selected
according to different scenario.
• Independent phase overcurrent element and zero
sequence overcurrent element are employed for the
Switch-Onto-Fault (SOTF) logic to achieve the high-
speed tripping.
• Phase-ground voltage or phase-phase voltage can be
selected for overvoltage and undervoltage protections.
Selective 1-phase (‘OR’ logic) and 3-phase (‘AND’
logic) modes are supported.
• Up to 13th harmonics are measured for power quality
monitoring.
• Four self-definable buttons are provided in the
faceplate for easy control and maintenance. The
button can be set as the remote/local, lock/unlock,
open/close for the circuit breaker control.
• Powerful disturbance recording function is
integrated in the relay for after-fault analysis. Up
to 64 disturbance reports can be stored in non-
volatile memory. Each report includes 5-cycle pre-
fault waveform and 100-cycle to 416-cycle post-fault
waveform.
