Graphical representation of an electric single line diagram(abbreviated SLD) is supplied to be

shown on the LCD display of this device.
1.3 Features
 The device makes use of a fully-closed chassis with a complete panel, has completely
separated spaces for electronic and electrical systems. The traditional motherboard wiring
mode is cancelled. At the same time, its software features corresponding anti-interference
measures which enhance their anti-interference capacity; and its electromagnetic radiation
also satisfy relevant standards.
 This device makes use of new PowerPC hardware platform, 16 bits parallel A/D converter,
320*240 graphic dot matrix LCD, and real time multi-task operating system for industrial
purpose so as to realize high-capacity, high-precision, fast, real time information processing.
With high-precision parallel A/D converter, synchronization sampling can be conducted for all
the AC signals to ensure the accuracy of analog quantity measurement which is up to the
15th harmonic component.
 Software and hardware clock synchronization are both adopted with 1ms timing accuracy to
ensure the resolution of Sequence Of Events(abbreviated SOE).
 Large scale LCD provides graph and text HMI which makes operation convenient.
 The devices are equipped with duplex Ethernet with 100M optical fiber or twisted pair cable.
 The devices make use of back plug-in module structure. Electrical and electronic circuits are
strictly separated, which enhances EMC immunity performance.
 Low power consumption and wide ambient temperature range.
 This device supports IEC61850, IEC60870-5-103 and DNP 3.0 protocols. Please refer to the
Chapter “Communication”for more details of these communication protocols.
 This device can process the Sampled Values(abbreviated SV) received from MU or ECT/EVT.
Either the conventional sampling method or the digital sampling method can be adopted by
this device.
 The functions of BCU, MU, LCU and interposing relay set are integrated in this device.
 When the circuit breaker(abbreviated CB) is tripped by a protection device or tripped by a

control command, CB wear will be caused by the breaking current.
If the CB wear value is greater than a threshold, overhaul will be necessary for the CB.
During the CB tripping process, when the CB Wear Management module receives a
command to trip 3 phases of the CB, or a command to trip 1 phase of the CB, the CB wear
statistical process will be triggered.
During the CB wear statistical process, CB Wear Management module acquires the

breaking current of each phase. By comparing the current in the CB wear table (provided by
the CB manufacturer) with the acquired breaking current, the CB Wear Management
module can calculate [Stat_CB_Wear], [Stat_CB_Wear_A], [Stat_CB_Wear_B], ,
[Stat_CB_Wear_C] by linear interpolation.

3.1 Operating Mode Management

 Operation mode: When the equipment is operating normally, this device is in the operation
mode. The “ALARM”LED on the front panel of this device is off. The “HEALTHY”LED on the
front panel of this device is lit on as green.
 Maintenance mode: If the corresponding isolator link is closed, the binary input 1(i.e.
[BI_Maintenance]) will be set as “1”, now this device is in the maintenance mode. The
“ALARM”LED on the front panel of this device is off. The “HEALTHY”LED on the front panel
of this device is lit on as green.
For the details about the maintenance mode, please refer to the Section “Operation
Theory”->“Binary Input”.
 Fault mode: When this device has detected a major self-check failure or after a parameter
modification, this device is in the fault mode. The “ALARM”LED on the front panel of this
device will be lit on as yellow. The “HEALTHY”LED on the front panel of this device will be off.
The execution of binary output is blocked, but the analog values and binary inputs can also be
sent to SCADA/RTU.
3.2 Digital Sampling Input
NOTE: Only one of the 3 optional sampling methods can be chosen at one time:
1) Conventional sampling method via AI(AC) module(e.g.:NR4402) equipped in slot B02 and
slot B03.
2) IEC60044-8 digital sampling method via slot B02 AI(ECVT) module(e.g.:NR4202A).
3) IEC61850-9-2 digital sampling method via slot B03 NET-DSP module(e.g.:NR4136A).
3.3 Digital Sampling Output

This device can be applied as a merging unit. In this method, digital sampling signals are acquired
via the slot B02 AI(ECVT) module(e.g.:NR4202A), and then this device will send out digital
sampling signals via slot B03 NET-DSP module(e.g.:NR4136A).
3.4 Binary Input

Binary input is used for the signaling of switching positions. With a free contact way, all binary
inputs are optically isolated to remove all external disturbances and can also be free configured.
Two methods of binary input signal handling is designed. One is a filtering circuit and the other is
via a well-designed debouncing technique to avoid any hazardous behavior (multiple state
changes during a given duration) as shown in the following figure. The start transition is signaled
Date: 2011-04-09
3 Operation Theory
with the correct time, the following changes within the debounce time are ignored. The debouncing
time can be set with a range of 0~60000ms. The event is time tagged at the instant of the first
transition. This device checks the state of binary input every 0.625 millisecond.
Figure 3.4-1 Debouncing technique
There are two types of binary input: physical binary input which indicates the apparatus switching
position and virtual binary input. The state of the physical binary input can be displayed in the
menu “Status”and can be sent to SCADA/RTU as states or as changes of state depending on the
protocol. The binary input can be written into the SOE record.
All the first binary inputs on BI module on slot B04~B09 are used for specific usages. These
binary inputs are called as Special Purpose Binary Input: Please refer to the Section
“Hardware”->“BI Module (NR4501) on Slot B04~B10 and B13(Mandatory)”for more details.
3.5 Receiving and Sending GOOSE Variables

The NET-DSP module receives signals from outer devices by GOOSE and forwards them to the
SCADA system. It also sends the GOOSE variables to the interposing set in the process level
according to the telecontrol commands sent by the SCADA system.
3.6 Binary Output

Binary output is used to trip or close primary apparatus, such as circuit breakers, disconnectors
and earthing switches within a bay, or for any signaling purpose. Permission to operate is given
after evaluation of conditions from other functions such as interlocking, synchronism-check,
operator place selection and external or internal blockings. The execution of binary output is
severe according to the principle of Select-Before-Execute to ensure high reliability. In addition,
with hardware self-check function this device will block binary output once a hardware fault is
detected to prevent misoperation result from hardware fault. As all the binary outputs are potential
free contacts, they are available for free configuration.

3 Operation Theory
3.7 Records
Please refer to the Section “Human Machine Interface”->“Understand the HMI Menu Tree”
->“Records”for more details.
3.8 Interlocking
Before a switching command, output is executed, the interlocking logic of this device will check
whether the preprogrammed interlocking logic equations are met to permit the operation or not.
The logic interlocking function is enabled by setting the parameter [En_TrpXX_Blk] and/or
[En_ClsXX_Blk] to “1”. (XX=CB;DS1;DS2;DS3;DS4;ES1;ES2;ES3;ES4;ES5;DS5;DS6;DS7)
Please refer to the Section “Settings”->“Interlock_Settings”for more details.
Interlocking logic equations can be configured straight forwardly upon the devices to meet the
customer’ s specific requirements via adding configurable logic by the interlocking configuration
tool with a user-friendly interface.
The interlocking conditions depend on the circuit configuration and apparatus position status at
any given time.
If the setting [En_Hardware_Blk] is set as “1”, hardware interlocking is enabled. This function is
based on software interlocking logic function and provides one more output contact for every
remotely-controlled apparatus as user purpose which is built in the BO(IL) module(i.e. interlocking
module). When executing a switching command output, if the interlocking logic conditions are met,
besides internal software interlocking corresponds remote trip or remote closing contact, this
device also provides an additional normal open contact for the remotely-controlled apparatus via
BO(IL) module.
3.9 Synchronism-check
The synchronism-check function in this device is designed to check whether the voltages with
respect to phase angle, frequency and magnitude on both sides of the CB are in synchronism to
ensure that CB closing can be done safely.
3 configurable synchronism-check modes are designed: No check mode, Dead check mode and
Synchronism-check mode.
Two groups of settings about synchronism -check are configured in this device:
1) Some parameters about synchronism-check in the “Function_Links”submenu of the

menu “Settings”in this device. These links will determine remote CB closing by SCADA
or control centers.
2) All the parameters in the “Syn_Settings”menu of the “Settings”submenu of the menu

“Settings”in this device.
Please refer to the Section “Settings”->“Function_Links”for the function links of this device.
Please refer to the Section “Settings”->“Syn_Settings” for the synchronism settings of this

3 Operation Theory
device.
2 special binary inputs([BI_DeadChk] and [BI_SynChk]) will determine the synchronism-check

modes during local CB closing by operating on PCS-221A.
Please refer to the Section “Hardware”->“BI Module (NR4501) on Slot B04~B10 and
B13(Mandatory)”for more details of [BI_DeadChk] and [BI_SynChk].
NOTE: 4 remote control commands are optional: Normal telecontrol, No check mode,
Dead check mode and Synchronism-check mode.
When Binary input 6 ([BI_RmtCtrlCB]) is set as “1”, if the remote control command adopts “No
check mode”, “Dead check mode” or “Synchronism-check mode”, the settings
[Link_DeadChk] and [Link_SynChk] in the menu “Function_Links”will be invalid. Whether “No
check mode”, “Dead check mode”or “Synchronism-check mode”will take effect is determined
by the remote control command from SCADA.
When Binary input 6 ([BI_RmtCtrlCB]) is set as “1”, if the remote control command adopts
“Normal remote control”, and then whether “No check mode”, “Dead check mode” or
“Synchronism-check mode”will take effect is determined by the settings [Link_DeadChk] and
[Link_SynChk] in the menu “Function_Links”of this device.
When Binary input 6 ([BI_RmtCtrlCB]) is set as “0”, whether “No check mode”, “Dead check
mode” or “Synchronism-check mode” will take effect is determined by the settings
[Link_DeadChk] and [Link_SynChk] in the menu “Function_Links”of this device.
When this device is set to work in No check mode and receives a closing command, the CB will
be closed without synchronism-check and dead check.
When this device is set to work in Dead check mode and receives a closing command, if the
secondary value of the 2 voltages (Synchronisim side voltage and measurement side voltage)
involved in synchronism-check can meet the dead check criterion corresponding to the setting
[Opt DeadChk], the CB is closed.
When this device is set to work in Synchronism-check mode, synchronism-check conditions

must be met to close CB. From receiving a closing command, this device will continuously check
synchronism-check conditions. If the synchronism-check condition is not met in
[t_Reset_SynChk], after [t_Reset_SynChk], this device will not check the synchronism-check
condition any longer, the failure of synchronism-check will be confirmed and an alarm signal
[Alm_SynChkFail] will be issued and it can be sent to SCADA.
If the synchronism-check conditions are met during the time [t_Reset_SynChk], the CB is closed.
When this device is set to work in Dead check mode, dead check conditions must be met to close
CB. From receiving a closing command, this device will continuously check dead check conditions.
If the dead check condition is not met in [t_Reset_SynChk], after [t_Reset_SynChk], this
device will not check the dead check condition any longer, the failure of dead check will be
confirmed and an alarm signal [Alm_SynChkFail] will be issued and it can be sent to SCADA.
Date: 2011-04-09
3 Operation Theory
If the dead check conditions are met during the time [t_Reset_SynChk], the CB is closed.
Manual closing as well as remote closing can be checked by the function with the same settings.
3.10 CB Wear Function

When the circuit breaker (abbreviated CB) is tripped by a protection device or tripped by a control
command, CB wear will be caused by the breaking current.
If the CB wear value
(i.e.:[Stat_CB_Wear],[Stat_CB_Wear_A],[Stat_CB_Wear_B] or [Stat_CB_Wear_C]) is greater

than a threshold (i.e.: the setting [Th_CB_Wear]), overhaul will be necessary for the CB.
During the CB tripping process, when the CB Wear Management module receives a command to
trip 3 phases of the CB, or a command to trip 1 phase of the CB, the CB wear statistical process
will be triggered.
NOTE: Only when the initial status of the CB is “CLOSE”and the CB has been tripped
sucessfully, the CB wear statistical process will be effective. If the initial status of the CB
is “OPEN”, the CB wear statistical process will not be triggered.
->“Analog”->“CB_Wear_Stat in Measurements3”and the Section “Settings”->“Misc_Settings”
for more details.
3.11 Clock Management

 Real time clock: The CPU module of this device has a real time clock with high precision.
 Clock synchronization: This device can realize clock synchronization through timing message
sent by the monitoring system. It can also realize synchronization of the device’ s clock and
the standard time by receiving IRIG-B or PPS signals from an external timing device(e.g.:
RCS-9785C or RCS-9785D).
 Supporting SNTP clock synchronization.
3.12 Detection of VT Disconnection

Three-phase VT disconnection can be detected by this device. Please refer to the Chapter
“Supervision”for the details of [Alm_VTS_Measmt].
Besides three-phase VT disconnection function, this device also supports single phase VT
disconnection by the status of the binary unput [BI_VTS_Line]. Please refer to the Section
“Hardware”->“BI Module (NR4501) on Slot B04~B10 and B13(Mandatory)”for more details of
[BI_VTS_Line].
3.13 Diagnostic Self-test

When the CPU has detected any hardware fault of the device itself, an alarm event is generated
Date: 2011-04-09
3 Operation Theory
and displayed on the LCD of this device. The LED HEALTHY on front panel is off and LED
ALARM is lit on. The alarm signal can also be sent to SCADA. During this time, a normal open
contact is closed to issue an alarm signal to indicate a device fault via terminals 1-2 on PWR
module. Here, all the binary outputs are blocked.
The hardware faults include the faults of RAM,E2PROM, and binary output circuits.
The LED HEALTHY can not be lit on again automatically after a fault clearing. The device needs
to be reset or powered on manually.

Generally speaking, the BO(IL) module in this device adopts the board named as NR4521.
NOTE: The BO module and the BO(IL) module share the same board: NR4521. If an
NR4521 board is equipped in B15~B16, it will be used as a BO(IL) module. If an

NR4521 board is equipped in BI17~B19, it will be used as a BO module.
BO(IL) module is an interlocking module which provides a normal open contact for every
remotely-controlled object when the setting [En_Hardware_Blk] is set as “1”.
When executing a switching command output, if the interlocking logic conditions are met, besides
internal software interlocking corresponds remote trip or remote closing contact, this device also
provides an additional normal open contact for the remotely-controlled object.
If a contact is closed, it means that the interlocking criterion of corresponding binary output is met.
If a contact is open, it means that the interlocking criterion of corresponding binary output is not
met.
Interlocking criteria can be configured by interlocking configuration tool.
NOTE: Each BO(IL) module can only provide up to 11 open contact corresponds to each
binary output, since there are 13 binary outputs in this device, so the last 2 binary outputs
does not have corresponding contacts in the BO(IL) module.
2 BO(IL) modules are recommended to be configured in this device at the same time: one in slot
B15 and the other in slot B16.

Compensation angle for synchronism side voltage.

In the synchronism-check criterion, the sum of the measurement side
voltage angle and [phi_Comp_Diff] will be compared with the
synchronism side voltage angle.
[phi_Comp_Diff] is applied to deal with various extra phase angle
differences as introduced below:
1) If the measurement side and synchronism side adopt the voltages
of different sides of the transformer (For two-winding transformer: HV
side and LV side; for three-winding transformer: HV side, MV side
and LV side), a phase angle difference will be generated due to
different connection groups of the transformer.
E.g.:For a two-winding transformer with Y/△11 connection group, if
11 phi_Comp_Diff
the measurement side and synchronism side of this device adopt
the voltages of different sides of this transformer, and then a phase
angle difference of 30°will exist between the measurement side
voltage and synchronism side voltage.
2) If the measurement side and synchronism side adopt the voltages
of different phases, and then a phase angle difference will be
generated due to different phases of the voltages.
E.g.: If the measurement side voltage of this device adopts phase
A, and the synchronism side voltage of this device adopts phase B,
a phase angle difference of 120° will exist between the
measurement side voltage and synchronism side voltage.
3) Phase angle differences generated by other factors.
Synchronism voltage type is determined by [Opt_U_SynChk] as shown in

the following table.

NOTE: “DPU”is the abbreviation of “the debouncing time of Delay Pick Up”.
Binary input state is processed by well-designed anti-jitter technique. Every binary input is
corresponding to a parameter named as [t_DPU_BIn] (n=1,… ,160), i.e. the signal state change
confirmation time. The default value is 20ms. It can be set up to be longer to ensure a fine binary
signal input according to the specific application.
The 1st terminal of each BI module is the Power supervision (PwrSuperv) terminal.
If the PwrSuperv_X(X=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) terminal of the BI module on slot BXX (BXX=B04, B05,

B06, B07, B08, B09, B10, B13) is not connected to positive pole of binary input auxiliary power,
[Alm_Pwr_BI_BXX] (BXX=B04, B05, B06, B07, B08, B09, B10, B13) will be issued and it can be
sent to SCADA.
[t_VBI]: The signal state change confirmation time for all the virtual double point binary inputs. This
device supports up to 16 virtual double point binary inputs （ i.e.: [Sig_CB],[Sig_CB_A],
[Sig_CB_B],[Sig_CB_C],[Sig_DS1] ,… [Sig_DS4],[Sig_ES1] ,… [Sig_ES5],[Sig_DS6],[Sig_DS7],
[Sig_DS8] displayed in the submenu “Test”->“Internal_Signal”）.
If a double point binary input changes to 0x00 or 0x11(i.e.: double point information error occurs),
the anti-jitter technique will be applied. [t_VBI] will be regarded as the debouncing time for all the
virtual double point binary inputs of this device.
If a double point binary inputs changes to 0x01 or 0x10(i.e.: no double point information error), the
anti-jitter technique will not be applied.

NOTE: When the dual busbar arrangement is applied, [Opt_BusArrange] in the
submenu “Settings”->“System_Settings”should be set as “0”. Now the synchronism

side voltages(the voltages in synchronism -check when closing a CB) of the 2 busbars
can be selected to output by this device, but only one of them is proper.
This device can select the synchronism side voltage of the proper busbar to output by
considering the status of DS1 and DS2.
DS2: the disconnector linked to the 2nd busbar.
Now the setting [t_VBI] will influence the output of the status of DS1 and DS2 directly, in
this way, [t_VBI] will indirectly take effect on selecting the synchronism side voltage of
which busbar to output, please configure the setting [t_VBI] carefully.
Please refer to the Section “Settings”->“System_Settings”for the setting [Opt_BusArrange] for

7.3.2.7 CB_Wear_Stat in Measurements3

“Analog”->“Measurements3”-> “CB_Wear_Stat”in this device.
Date: 2011-04-09
Table 7.3-10 Parameters description of “CB_Wear_Stat”in Measurements3
When the circuit breaker (abbreviated CB) is tripped by a protection

device or tripped by a control command, CB wear will be caused by the
breaking current.
If the CB wear value
(i.e.:[Stat_CB_Wear],[Stat_CB_Wear_A],[Stat_CB_Wear_B] or
[Stat_CB_Wear_C]) is greater than a threshold (i.e.: the setting
[Th_CB_Wear]), overhaul will be necessary for the CB.
1 Alm_CB_Wear During the CB tripping process, when the CB Wear Management

module receives a command to trip 3 phases of the CB, or a command
to trip 1 phase of the CB, the CB wear statistical process will be
triggered.
NOTE: Only when the initial status of the CB is “CLOSE”and
the CB has been tripped sucessfully, the CB wear statistical

process will be effective. If the initial status of the CB is
“OPEN”, the CB wear statistical process will not be triggered.
For the 3 phases tripping and single phase tripping, the CB Wear
Management will be introduced one by one as following.
1) CB Wear Management module receives a command to trip 3

phases of the CB:
If the CB open position is detected within 10s, the CB wear statistical

process will be effective. If the CB open position can not be detected
after 10s, the CB wear statistical process will be terminated and the
[Stat_CB_Wear] calculated in this process will be ignored.
2 Stat_CB_Wear During an effective CB wear statistical process, when the CB open

position is detected, the CB wear statistical process will be ended and
the [Stat_CB_Wear] will be recorded.
During the CB wear statistical process, CB Wear Management module

acquires the breaking current of each phase. By comparing the current in
the CB wear table (provided by the CB manufacturer) with the acquired
breaking current, the CB Wear Management module can calculate
[Stat_CB_Wear] by linear interpolation.
Date: 2011-04-09
Generally speaking, the value of [Stat_CB_Wear] is proportional to the

root-mean-square (abbreviated RMS) of the breaking current.
If [Stat_CB_Wear] is greater than [Th_CB_Wear], an alarm signal

named as [Alm_CB_Wear] will be issued, this alarm signal will be
displayed in the HMI of this device and can be sent to SCADA.
2) CB Wear Management module receives a command to trip 1

phase of the CB:
3 Stat_CB_Wear_A NOTE: Here phase A is taken as an example, it is the same
for phase B & phase C.
For example, if CB Wear Management module receives a command to

trip phase A of the CB.
If the phase A open position is detected within 10s, the CB wear

statistical process will be effective. If the phase A open position can not
be detected after 10s, the CB wear statistical process will be terminated
and the [Stat_CB_Wear_A] calculated in this process will be ignored.
During an effective CB wear statistical process, when the CB open

position is detected, the CB wear statistical process will be ended and
the [Stat_CB_Wear_A] will be recorded.
During the CB wear statistical process, CB Wear Management module

acquires the breaking current of each phase. By comparing the current in
the CB wear table (provided by the CB manufacturer) with the acquired
breaking current, the CB Wear Management module can calculate
[Stat_CB_Wear_A] by linear interpolation.
Stat_CB_Wear_B Generally speaking, the value of [Stat_CB_Wear_A] is proportional to

4
the RMS of the breaking current.
If any one of [Stat_CB_Wear_A], [Stat_CB_Wear_B],

[Stat_CB_Wear_C] is greater than [Th_CB_Wear], an alarm signal
named as [Alm_CB_Wear] will be issued, this alarm signal will be
displayed in the HMI of this device and can be sent to SCADA.
NOTE: The submenu “Local_Cmd”->“Reset_Target” is
designed to reset the alarm signal [Alm_CB_Wear] in the
Date: 2011-04-09
submenu “Analog”->“Measurements3”->“CB_Wear_Stat”.
[Stat_CB_Wear] in the submenu

“Analog”->“Measurements3”->“CB_Wear_Stat”will not be
cleared by access the submenu
“Local_Cmd”->“Reset_Target”.
If you want to clear the value [Stat_CB_Wear] in the submenu

“Analog”->“Measurements3” ->“CB_Wear_Stat”, please
access the submenu
“Local_Cmd”->“Clear_CBWear_Counter”.
5 Stat_CB_Wear_C
When the user access the submenu
“Local_Cmd”->“Clear_CBWear_Counter”to clear the value
[Stat_CB_Wear] and reset the alarm signal [Alm_CB_Wear]
in the submenu “Analog”->“Measurements3”
->“CB_Wear_Stat”, the [Sig_Counter_Cleared] in the
submenu “Status”->“Virtual_Binary”will change from “0”
to ”1”.
The setting [Th_CB_Wear] will not be changed by all the

commands in the menu “Local_Cmd”.
7.3.3 Status
This menu is mainly used to display the state of binary inputs (including binary inputs via

8.4 IEC61850 Interface

8.4.1 Overview
The IEC61850 software module is adopted in the device.
The IEC61850 standard is the result of years of work by electric utilities and vendors of electronic
equipment to produce standardized communications systems. IEC61850 is a series of standards
describing client/server and peer-to-peer communications, substation design and configuration,
testing, environmental and project standards. The complete set includes:

that all those involved with any IEC61850 implementation obtain this document set.
8.4.2 Communication Profiles

This device supports IEC61850 server services over TCP/IP communication protocol stacks. The
TCP/IP profile requires this device to have an IP address to establish communications. These
addresses are located in the submenu “Comm_Settings”. See Section
“Settings”->“Comm_Settings”for further details.
1） MMS protocol
IEC61850 specifies the use of the Manufacturing Message Specification (MMS) at the upper
(application) layer for transfer of real-time data. This protocol has been in existence for a number
of years and provides a set of services suitable for the transfer of data within a substation LAN
environment. Actual MMS protocol services are mapped to IEC61850 abstract services in
IEC61850-8-1.
2） Client/server
This is a connection-oriented type of communication. The connection and communication activity

is initiated and controlled by the client. Substation computers running HMI programs or SOE
logging software are considered as IEC61850 clients. Substation equipment such as protection
relays, meters, RTUs, transformer, tap changers, or bay control units are considered as servers.
Please note that RTUs can also be considered as clients.
3） Peer-to-peer
This is a non-connection-oriented, high speed type of communication usually between substation

equipment, such as protection relays, bay control units. GOOSE is the method of peer-to-peer
communication.
4） Substation configuration language (SCL)
A substation configuration language is a number of files used to describe IED and communication
system realized according to IEC 61850-5 and IEC 61850-7. Each configured device has an IED
Capability Description (ICD) file and a Configured IED Description (CID) file. The substation single
line information is stored in a System Specification Description (SSD) file. The entire substation
configuration is stored in a Substation Configuration Description (SCD) file. The SCD file is the
combination of the individual ICD files and the SSD file, moreover, add commu nication system
parameters (MMS, GOOSE, control block, SV control block) and the connection relationship of
GOOSE and SV to SCD file.
8.4.3 Server Data Organization
IEC61850 defines an object-oriented approach to data and services. An IEC61850 physical

device can contain one or more logical device(s) (for proxy). Each logical device can contain
many logical nodes. Each logical node can contain many data objects. Each data object is
composed of data attributes and data attribute components. Services are available at each level
for performing various functions, such as reading, writing, control commands, and reporting.

Each IED represents one IEC61850 physical device. The physical device contains one or more
logical device(s), and the logical device contains many logical nodes. The logical node LPHD
contains information about the IED physical device. The logical node LLN0 contains information
about the IED logical device.
8.4.3.1 Digital Status Values
The GGIO logical node is available in this device to provide access to digital status points
(including general I/O inputs and warnings) and associated timestamps and quality flags. The data
content must be configured before the data can be used. GGIO provides digital status points for
access by clients. It is intended that clients use GGIO in order to access digital status values from
in this device. Clients can utilize the IEC61850 buffered reporting features available from GGIO in
order to build sequence of events (SOE) logs and HMI display screens. Buffered reporting should
generally be used for SOE logs since the buffering capability reduces the chances of missing data
state changes. All needed status data objects are transmitted to HMI clients via buffered reporting,
and the corresponding buffered reporting control block (abbreviated BRCB) is defined in LLN0.
8.4.3.2 Analog Values
Most of analog measured values are available through the MMXU logical nodes, and metering
values in MMTR, the others in MMXN, MSQI and so on. Each MMXU logical node provides data
from an IED current/voltage “source”. There is one MMXU available for each configurable source.
MMXU1 provides data from CT/VT source 1 (usually for protection purpose), and MMXU2
provides data from CT/VT source 2 (usually for monitor and display purpose). All these analog
data objects are transmitted to HMI clients via unbuffered reporting periodically, and the
corresponding unbuffered reporting control block (URCB) is defined in LLN0. MMXUx logical
nodes provide the following data for each source:
MMXU.MX.TotW: three-phase active power

MMXU.MX.TotVAr: three-phase reactive power
MMXU.MX.TotPF: three-phase power factor
MMXU.MX.Hz: frequency
MMXU.MX.PPV.phsAB: phase AB voltage magnitude and angle

8.4.3.3 Logical Nodes about Disturbance Recorder Function
The following list describes the logical nodes about disturbance recorder function for this device.
RDRE: Disturbance recorder function.
For consistent modelling, the disturbance recorder function described as a requirement

in IEC 61850-5 is decomposed into one LN class for analogue channels (RADR) and
another LN class for binary channels (RBDR). The output refers to the “IEEE Standard
RDRE: Format for Transient Data Exchange (COMTRADE) for Power Systems” (IEC
60255-24). Disturbance recorders are logical devices built up with one instance of LN
RADR or LN RBDR per channel. Since the content of Logical Devices (LD) are not
standardised, other LNs may be inside the LD “Disturbance recorder”if applicable. All
enabled channels are included in the recording, independently of the trigger mode
(TrgMod).
Similar to digital status values, disturbance & fault recording information is reported via BRCB,
and BRCB locates in LLN0.
8.4.3.4 LLN0 and Other Logical Nodes
Logical node LLN0 is essential for an IEC61850 based IED. This LN shall be used to address
common issues for Logical Devices. In this device, most of the public services, the common
settings, control values and some device oriented data objects are available here. The public
services may be BRCB, URCB and GSE control blocks and similar global defines for the whole
device; the common settings (the logic nodes LPHD also contain some related common settings)
include all the setting items of communication settings, system settings and some of the setting
items, which can be configured to 2 or more logical nodes. In LLN0, the item Loc is a device
control object, this Do item indicates the local operation for complete logical device, when it is true,
all the remote control commands to the IED will be blocked and those commands make effective
until the item Loc is changed to false. Besides the logical nodes we describe above, there are
some other logical nodes below in the IEDs:
This LN shall be used to acquire values from CTs and VTs and calculate measurands
such as r.m.s. values for current and voltage or power flows out of the acquired voltage
MMXU: and current samples. These values are normally used for operational purposes such as
power flow supervision and management, screen displays, state estimation, etc. The
requested accuracy for these functions has to be provided.
This LN shall be used to “enable”a switching operation if the interlocking conditions are
fulfilled. One instance per switching device is needed. At least all related switchgear
positions have to be subscribed. The interlocking algorithm is a local issue.
CILO: This LN is used for the interlocking function at station level and/or at bay level.
Interlocking may be totally centralized or totally decentralized. Since the interlocking

rules are basically the same on bay and station level and based on all related position
indications, the different interlocking LNs may be seen as instances of the same LN

class Interlocking (IL).
1) Interlocking of switchgear at bay level
All interlocking rules referring to a bay are included in this LN. Releases or
blockings of requested commands are issued. In the case of status changes
affecting interlocking, blocking commands are issued.
2) Interlocking of switchgear at station level
All interlocking rules referring to the station are included in this LN. Releases
or blockings of requested commands are issued. Information with the LN bay
interlocking is exchanged.
This LN is used for the sequences and imbalances, for example for stability purpose.
MSQI: This LN is used to acquire values from CTs and VTs and to calculate the sequences and
imbalances in a three/multi-phase power system.
This LN is used for synchrocheck/synchronizing or synchronism check.
The voltage phasor difference from both sides of an open breaker is calculated and
compared with predefined switching conditions (synchrocheck). Included is the case
that one side is dead (example: energizing a dead line) and the case that the phasor on
one side can be actively controlled by “higher”or “lower”(means synchronising).
RSYN:
Synchronizing or synchronism-check device is a device that operates when two AC
circuits are within the desired limits of frequency, phase-angle and voltage, to permit or
to cause the paralleling of these two circuits (IEEE C37.2-1996).
To avoid stress for the switching device and the network, closing of the circuit breaker is
allowed by the synchrocheck only, if the differences of voltage, frequency and phase
angle are within certain limits.
This LN is used for tap changer.

YLTC:
Device allocated to YPTR allowing changing taps of the winding for voltage regulation.
This LN is used for automatic tap changer control.
ATCC: This LN provides automatic function to keep the voltage of a busbar within a specific
range using tap changers. This node operates the tap changer automatically according
to given setpoints or by direct operator commands (manual mode).

Generic automatic process control, it is used to model in a generic way the
GAPC: processing/automation of functions, for example the sequence control functions for this
device.
Switch controller. This class is used to control all switching conditions of XCBR and
CSWI: XSWI. A remote switching command (for example select-before-operate) arrives here
firstly.

Breaker control. The XCBR logical node is directly associated with the breaker control
XCBR:
feature.
This is the position of the breaker. If the breaker control logic
indicates that the breaker, or any single pole of the breaker, is
XCBR1.ST.Pos: closed, then the breaker position state is “on”. If the breaker
control logic indicates that the breaker is open, then the breaker
position state is “off”.
This is the state of the block open command logic. When true,
XCBR1.ST.BlkOpn:
breaker open commands from IEC61850 clients will be rejected.
This is the state of the block close command logic. When true,
XCBR1.ST.BlkCls: breaker close commands from IEC61850 clients will be
rejected.
This is where IEC61850 clients can issue open or close
commands to the breaker. Select Before Operate (abbreviated
XCBR1.CO.Pos:
SBO) with enhanced security is the only supported IEC61850
control model.
8.4.4 Server Features and Configuration
8.4.4.1 Buffered/Unbuffered Reporting

8.4.4.2 File Transfer
MMS file services are supported to allow transfer of event record or other files from this device.
8.4.4.3 Timestamps
The Universal Time Coordinated (abbreviated UTC) timestamp associated with all IEC61850 data
items represents the latest change time of either the value or quality flags of the data item.
8.4.4.4 Logical Node Name Prefixes
IEC61850 specifies that each logical node can have a name with a total length of 11 characters.
The name is composed of:
 A five or six-character name prefix.
 A four-character standard name (for example, MMXU, GGIO, PIOC, etc.).
 A one or two-character instantiation index.
Complete names are of the form xxxxxxPTOC1, where the xxxxxx character string is configurable.
Details regarding the logical node naming rules are given in IEC61850 parts 6 and 7-2. It is
recommended that a consistent naming convention be used for an entire substation project.
8.4.4.5 GOOSE Services
IEC61850 specifies the type of broadcast data transfer services: Generic Object Oriented
Substation Events (GOOSE). IEC61850 GOOSE services provide virtual LAN (VLAN) support,
Ethernet priority tagging, and Ether-type Application ID configuration. The support for VLANs and
priority tagging allows for the optimization of Ethernet network traffic. GOOSE messages can be
given a higher priority than standard Ethernet traffic, and they can be separated onto specific
VLANs. Devices that transmit GOOSE messages also function as servers. Each GOOSE
publisher contains a “GOOSE control block”to configure and control the transmission.
The GOOSE transmission (including subscribing and publishing) is controlled by GOOSE link
settings in device.
This device supports IEC61850 Generic Object Oriented Substation Event (GOOSE)
communication. All GOOSE messages contain IEC61850 data collected into a dataset. It is this
dataset that is transferred using GOOSE message services. The GOOSE related dataset is
configured in the CID file and it is recommended that the fixed GOOSE be used for
implementations that require GOOSE data transfer between PCS-221A CBCs.
IEC61850 GOOSE messaging contains a number of configurable parameters, all of which must
be correct to achieve the successful transfer of data. It is critical that the configured datasets at
the transmission and reception devices are an exact match in terms of data structure, and that the
GOOSE addresses and name strings match exactly.
Date: 2011-04-09

The general steps required for transmission configuration are:
1) Configure the data.
2) Configure the transmission dataset.
3) Configure the GOOSE service settings.
The general steps required for reception configuration are:
1) Configure the data.
2) Configure the reception dataset.
3) Configure the GOOSE service settings.

8.5 GOOSE Service

8.5.1 GOOSE Introduction
The General Object oriented substation event (GOOSE) defined in IEC61850 standard is based
on the fast Ethernet multi-broadcasting message transmission, taking place of the hard-wired
communication mode between classic intelligent electronic device (IED) and providing a fast,
efficient and reliable method for communication among logic nodes.
The GOOSE service supports the exchange of public data comprised of data sets, it is used to
protect the data transmission which requires high real-time like tripping, breaker position and
Date: 2011-04-09
8 Communication
interlocked information. The information exchange of GOOSE service is based on the

publish/subscribe mechanism, and any IED device in the same GOOSE network can be
conducted as subscription terminal to receive data and as publication terminal to provide
data to other IED device as well, so that the increasing or modification of communication data
between IED devices can be realized in a much easier way.
8.5.2 GOOSE Function

This device uses independent high efficient DSP board to realize GOOSE, so it has super-high
real-time property and reliability. Two 100M FDX optical fiber Ethernet interfaces on the DSP
board can be corresponded to different VLAN networks. The GOOSE dual-networks configuration
improves the reliability and stability of system.
1) GOOSE receiving/sending mechanism
In order to ensure the real-time property and reliability of GOOSE service, GOOSE message
adopts ASN.1 code which relates to basic encoding rule (BER) and transmit data directly in
Ethernet link layer without passing through TCP/IP protocol and also adopts special
receiving/sending mechanism.
Sending of the GOOSE message adopts heartbeat message and position-altering message fast
resending combination mechanism. If the data in GOOSE data sets is not changed, the heartbeat
message whose interval is T0 will be sent, the status number (stnum) in message will not be
changed and the sequence number (sqnum) will be increased progressiv ely. If the data in
GOOSE data set is changed, after sending a frame of position-altering message, the
position-altering message will be fast resent in the interval of T0, T1, T2, and T3. The status
number (stnum) in the message whose data is position-altered will be increased, and the
sequence number (sqnum) will be started from zero.
The GOOSE receiving can detect link interrupt according to the TATL (Time Allow to Live) in the
GOOSE message. The GOOSE data receiving mechanism can be divided into single frame
receiving and dual-frames receiving. The intelligent operation box uses dual-frames receiving
mechanism and update data after receiving two frames of messages with the same GOOSE data.
Other protection and monitoring devices use single frame receiving mechanism and update data
immediately after receiving position-altering message (stnum changed). If the status number
(stnum) in the received message is not changed, dual-frames message confirmation will be used
to update data.
2) GOOSE Alarm
GOOSE will alarm the abnormal conditions produced during receiving/sending process, the
GOOSE alarms mainly include: GOOSE network A/B network link breaking alarm, GOOSE
configuration inconformity alarm and GOOSE network A/B network-storm alarm.
The GOOSE network A/B link breaking alarm is: this alarm will be produced when correct GOOSE
message is not received in 2 times of the TATL (Time Allow to Live).
The GOOSE configuration inconformity alarm is: the attribute of GOOSE control block of GOOSE
publisher and subscriber like configuration version number must be identical. Otherwise this
Date: 2011-04-09
8 Communication
GOOSE configuration inconformity alarm will be produced.
The GOOSE network A/B network-storm alarm is: when network-storm is produced in GOOSE
network, if data flow of network port is beyond normal range and abnormal message is produced,
this GOOSE network A/B network-storm alarm will be produced.
3) GOOSE Service
When service status of the device is set to 1, the GOOSE message sent by the device has a Test
Flag and receiving terminal can obtain service status of sending terminal by the test flag of
message. When the service status of sending terminal conforms to that of receiving terminal, the
device will carry out normal processing to the received GOOSE data. When the service status of
sending terminal doesn’
t conform to that of receiving terminal, the device will process the received
GOOSE data accordingly to ensure that the serviced device will not influence the normal running
of device, improving the flexibility and reliability of GOOSE service.

9.7 Electrial Installation and Wiring

9.7.1 Grounding Guidelines
Switching operations in HV installations generate transient over voltages on control signal cables.
There is also a background of electromagnetic RF fields in electrical installations that can induce
spurious currents in the devices themselves or the leads connected to them.
All these influences can influence the operation of electronic apparatus.
On the other hand, electronic apparatus can transmit interference that can disrupt the operation of
other apparatus.
In order to minimize these influences as far as possible, certain standards have to be observed
with respect to grounding, wiring and screening.
NOTE: All these precautions can only be effective if the station ground is of good quality.
9.7.2 Cubicle Grounding

The cubicle must be designed and fitted out such that the impedance for RF interference of the
ground path from the electronic device to the cubicle ground terminal is as low as possible.
Metal accessories such as side plates, blanking plates etc., must be effectively connected
surface-to-surface to the grounded frame to ensure a low-impedance path to ground for RF
interference. The contact surfaces must not only conduct well, they must also be non-corroding.
NOTE: If the above conditions are not fulfilled, there is a possibility of the cubicle or parts
of it forming a resonant circuit at certain frequencies that would amplify the transmission
of interference by the devices installed and also reduce their immunity to induced
interference.
Movable parts of the cubicle such as doors (front and back) or hinged equipment frames must be
effectively grounded to the frame by three braided copper strips (see Figure 9.7-1).
The metal parts of the cubicle housing and the ground rail are interconnected electrically
conducting and corrosion proof. The contact surfaces shall be as large as possible.
Date: 2011-04-09
9 Installation
NOTE: For metallic connections please observe the voltage difference of both materials
according to the electrochemical code.
The cubicle ground rail must be effectively connected to the station ground rail by a grounding
strip (braided copper).
Figure 9.7-1 Cubicle grounding system
9.7.3 Ground Connection on the Device

There is a ground terminal on the rear panel, and the ground braided copper strip can be
connected with it. Take care that the grounding strip is always as short as possible. The main thing
is that the device is only grounded at one point. Grounding loops from unit to unit are not allowed.
There are some ground terminals on some connectors of this device, and the sign is “GND”. All
the ground terminals are connected in the cabinet of this device. So, the ground terminal on the
rear panel (see in the following figure) is the only ground terminal of this device.
Date: 2011-04-09
9 Installation
Figure 9.7-2 Ground terminal of this device
9.7.4 Grounding Strips and their Installation

High frequency currents are produced by interference in the ground connections and because of
skin effect at these frequencies, only the surface region of the groun ding strips is of consequence.
The grounding strips must therefore be of (preferably tinned) braided copper and not round
copper conductors, as the cross-section of round copper would have to be too large.
Data of braided copper strip: threaded M4, 2.5mm 2.
Proper terminations must be fitted to both ends (press/pinch fit and tinned) with a hole for bolting
them firmly to the items to be connected.
The surfaces to which the grounding strips are bolted must be electrically conducting and
non-corroding.
The following figure shows the ground strip and termination.

9.7.5 Guidelines for Wiring

9.7.5.1 CT Circuits and Other Terminal Blocks
CT Circuits:
Heavy-duty terminal block, M4 threaded terminal ends for wire cross sections from 2.5 to 4.0 mm.
Input/Outputs, Voltage-measuring inputs or power supply modules:
Welding terminals for wire cross sections should br from 1.5 to 2.5 mm2. Those devices are
Date: 2011-04-09
9 Installation
supplied with sufficient M4 screws for making connections to the rear mounted terminal blocks
using ring terminals, with a recommended maximum of two ring terminals per terminal.
To meet the insulation requirements of the terminal block, for the sake of safety, an insulating
sleeve should be fitted over the ring terminal after crimping.
The wire used for all connections to the welding terminal blocks and heavy duty terminal blocks,
except the EIA(RS)485 port, should have a minimum voltage rating of 300Vrms.
It is recommended that the auxiliary power circuit wiring should be protected by using a 16A high
rupture capacity (HRC) fuse of type NIT or TIA. For safety reasons, current transformer circuits
must never be open.
9.7.5.2 Ethernet port
Optical Fiber (OF) Port:
Optical Fiber communication is an option, and should be ordered as such along with the required
mechanical modules. The equipment can have an optional 100 Mbps Ethernet port. It is
recommended that OF port should use permanent connection in substation environment. 100
Mbit OF port adopts SC connector and it is compatible with 850nm multi-mode optical fiber cable.
Specific care should be taken with the bend radius of the fibers, and the use of optical shunts is
not recommended as these can degrade the transmission path over time.
Non-observance of the following measure can result in death, personal injury or substantial
property damage.
RJ-45 Port:
It can be connected to 100Base-TX Ethernet switch with shield Ethernet Cable. Ethernet network
with RJ-45 connections has to stay inside a cubicle. The RJ-45 connector when seen face on, flat
side on bottom, side tab on top, then pin 1 is on the left and pin 8 on the right.
9.7.5.3 IRIG-B connection (if applicable)
Since IRIG-B using RS485 serial communication interface, a termination 120 ohm resistor has to
be connected at each extremity of the busbar.
Figure 9.7-4 Example of IRIG-B Connections
Date: 2011-04-09
