Chapter 3 Operation Theory


The RCS-9626CN motor protection relay is a microprocessor based relay designed for the
protection of large/medium motor. Some protective functions, fault diagnostic function and uplink
communication function are supported in this relay.

Voltage, current, frequency, power and energy metering functions are built into the relay as a
standard feature. Current parameters are available as total waveform RMS magnitude, or as
fundamental frequency only RMS magnitude and angle.

Diagnostic features include a sequence of records capable of storing 256 time-tagged events. The
disturbance records also can be captured during a system fault. The internal clock used for
time-tagging can be synchronized with a PPS signal and via the communication protocol over a
RS-485 port or an Ethernet port; it also can be synchronized with an IRIG-B signal. This precise
time stamping allows these records to be determined throughout the system. These tools
significantly reduce troubleshooting time and simplify report generation in the event of a system
fault.

Two rear RS-485 ports and two rear Ethernet ports allow independent access by operating and
engineering staff. All the ports use the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol. The RS-485 ports may be
connected to the supervisory system with baud rates up to 38.4 kbps, and the Ethernet ports has
100Mbit/s transmission rate. A rear RS-232 port is used to connect to an EPSON® LQ-300K serial
printer.

3.1 Fault Detectors

The fault detector operates if any of the following conditions is satisfied.

1. Any one of phase currents is in excess of the setting of the stage 1 overcurrent protection
multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the stage 1 overcurrent protection is enabled
(I>0.95×[I_OC1]).

2. Any one of phase currents is in excess of the setting of the stage 2 overcurrent protection
multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the stage 2 overcurrent protection is enabled
(I>0.95×[I_OC2]).

3. Any one of phase currents is in excess of the setting of the stage 3 overcurrent protection
multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the stage 3 overcurrent protection is enabled
(I>0.95×[I_OC3]).

4. Negative sequence current is in excess of the setting of stage 1 negative sequence


overcurrent protection multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the stage 1 negative sequence
overcurrent protection is enabled (I2>0.95×[I_NegOC1]).

Chapter 3 Operation Theory

overcurrent protection is enabled (I2>0.95×[I_NegOC2]).

6. Any one of phase-to-phase voltage is in less than the setting of the undervoltage protection
multiplied by 1.05 on condition that the overload protection is enabled (UPP<1.05×[U_UV]).

7. Any one of phase currents is in excess of the current setting of the overload protection
multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the overload protection is enabled (I>0.95×[I_OvLd]).

8. Zero sequence current is in excess of the setting of the zero sequence overcurrent protection
multiplied by 0.95 on condition that the zero sequence overcurrent protection is enabled
(I0>0.95×[I_ROC]).

9. The thermal accumulation value is in excess of the motor thermal protection setting multiplied
by 0.95 on condition that the motor thermal protection is enabled (I>0.95×[A_MotorTherm]).

10. Any binary input of the mechanical protections is energized (BI_MR1=1, BI_MR2=1 or
BI_MR3=1), if the corresponding mechanical protection is enabled.

The FD (Fault Detectors) element will reset to normal operation status in 500ms after the last one
of the above items resets. The following figure shows the logic diagram of the fault detector of the
RCS-9626CN.

Figure 3.1-1 Logic diagram of the fault detector

3.2 Overcurrent Protection

The equipment provides three-stage definite time overcurrent protection. The stage 1 overcurrent
is similar to instantaneous overcurrent, the current setting should be higher than the pickup current
of the motor and the time-delay may be as zero or very short delay. The stage 2 and stage 3
overcurrent protections are usually set as definite time overcurrent protection.

The stage 1 overcurrent protection is mainly for short circuit fault of motor. The stage 2 overcurrent
protection is definite time overcurrent protection, and it will be enabled automatically after the
motor has started successfully and is working in normal situation. The stage 3 overcurrent
protection is provided for the stalling protection of the motor.

The functional logic diagram for the three-stage overcurrent protection is shown as bellow. The
overcurrent block is a level detector that detects that the current magnitude is above the threshold.

3.3 Negative Sequence Overcurrent Protection

When three phase current of motor is very asymmetrical, large negative current will appear and
two times power frequency current will generate in stator duo to appearance of negative current
thus lead excessive thermal to rotor and will endanger secure operating of motor.

The equipment provides two-stage definite time negative sequence overcurrent protection
separately for reverse-phase-failed, interturn fault and severe abnormal operation such as
asymmetrical voltage and so on. So the stage 2 negative sequence overcurrent as sensitive
unbalance overcurrent protection can be configured with definite time or inverse time
characteristic via the logical setting [En_InvNegOC].

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 15


Chapter 3 Operation Theory

The stage 2 negative sequence overcurrent is also can be configured to issue an alarm signal
when it is configured with definite time characteristic through the logic setting [En_Trp_NegOC2].

The inverse time delayed characteristics comply with the following formula (based on IEC60255-4
standard).

3.5 Motor Thermal Protection

Motor thermal protection is mainly used to protect against excessive heating of motor, in order to
realize this purpose, a “thermal replica” has been used in the protection design of this equipment.
Take account of combination heating of positive sequence current “I1” and negative sequence
current “I2”, the equivalent heating current “Ieq” will be used, and its expression is listed as below.

I eq2 = K1 × I12 + K 2 × I 22

Where:

I1 is the positive sequence current of the motor;

I2 is the negative sequence current of the motor;

K1 = 0.5, it is used to prevent maloperation in starting process;

K1 = 1.0, once the predefined time delay [t_Start] has elapsed, “I12” will not decrease
deliberately;

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 17


Chapter 3 Operation Theory

K2 = 3 ~ 10, it is used to simulate enhanced heating effect of “I22”, 6 is a recommended value.

Protection operation equation is listed as below.

 I eq  2 
 I  − 1.05  × t ≥ τ
2

 e


Where:

“Ieq” is the equivalent heating current;

“Ie” is the ratted current of the motor;

“ τ ” is the setting for accumulated heating thermal [A_MotorTherm];

When the thermal accumulation of the motor achieves the excessive thermal alarm level
([A_MotorTherm]×[K_Alm_MotorTherm]), [K_Alm_MotorTherm] is a coefficient for motor thermal
alarm, this relay will issue an alarm signal.

When the thermal accumulation achieves the excessive thermal trip level [A_MotorTherm], this
relay will issue a tripping command (if circuit breaker is not in open position, the relay will operate).

If power supply for motor is shunt off by the motor thermal protection, the motor can not start again
at once unless the temperature of motor is in permitted range after the heat elimination process. If
urgency starting is needed, the motor thermal state can be reset to “cool state” forcibly by
energizing the binary input [BI_RstTarg_Therm] (Terminal 328).

Chapter 3 Operation Theory

motor thermal protection is operated;

“MotorTherm Reset” and a button, which is used to input a reset signal to restore the thermal
accumulator in this relay.

3.6 Earth Fault Protection

One of the most common faults to occur on a motor is a stator winding fault. Whatever the initial
form of the fault (phase-to-phase, etc.) or the cause (cyclic overheating, etc.), the presence of the
surrounding metallic frame and casing will ensure that it rapidly develops into a fault involving
earth. Therefore, provision of earth fault protection is very important.

The equipment provides zero sequence overcurrent protection which is triggered by stator earth
fault of motor. It can be configured to trip circuit breaker or only issue alarm information via logical
setting in order to accommodate different condition.

The functional logic diagram for the zero sequence overcurrent protection is shown as bellow. The
zero sequence overcurrent block is a level detector that detects that the zero sequence current
magnitude is above the threshold.

Where:

[I_ROC] is the current setting of the zero sequence overcurrent protection;

[t_ROC] is the time-delay setting of the zero sequence overcurrent protection;

[En_ROC] is the logic setting of the zero sequence overcurrent protection;

[En_Trp_ROC] is the logic setting which is used to enable the zero sequence protection to
issue a tripping signal.

3.7 Undervoltage Protection

The equipment provides undervoltage protection. When three phase-to-phase voltages all less
than undervoltage setting and the predefined time delay has elapsed, undervoltage protection will
operate. The undervoltage element is blocked by the open position state of the circuit breaker. The
VT circuit failure can be identified automatically by the equipment and the undervoltage element
will be blocked at once under such a condition.

The functional logic diagram for the undervoltage protection is shown as bellow. The undervoltage
block is a level detector that detects that the voltage magnitude is above the threshold.

[S_State_CB] is the position state of the circuit breaker.

3.8 Mechanical Protection

The equipment provides three independent mechanical protections, and one of the mechanical
protections used for tripping circuit breaker directly; another two can be configured to trip or alarm
via the logical setting. Time delay for first and second mechanical protections may reach up to 100
seconds; and time delay for third channel may reach up to 100 minutes. If the logical setting
[En_MR2] or [En_MR3] is disabled, it means the corresponding mechanical protection is only used
for alarm function.

Two of the mechanical protections can issue a tripping signal or an alarm signal, and another one
only can issue a tripping signal.

These special binary inputs and their functions are listed as below.

BI Name Relevant Function For tripping For alarming


BI_MR1 The No.1 mechanical protection YES NO

Chapter 4 Supervision, Metering and Control

Chapter 4 Supervision, Metering and Control

4.1 Overview

Though the protection system is in non-operating state under normal conditions, it is waiting for a
power system fault to occur at any time and must operate for the fault without fail. When the
equipment is in energizing process before the LED “HEALTHY” is on, the equipment needs to be
checked to ensure there are no errors. Therefore, the automatic supervision function, which
checks the health of the protection system when startup and during normal operation, plays an
important role.

The numerical relay based on the microprocessor operations is suitable for implementing this
automatic supervision function of the protection system.

In case a fatal fault is detected during automatic supervision, the equipment will be blocked out. It
means that relay is out of service. Therefore you must re-energize the relay or even replace a
module to make relay back into service.

The relay also provides some auxiliary functions, such as disturbance data record, on-line data
metering, real-time power calculation etc. All these make the relay meet the demands of the
modern industrial requirements.

4.2 Relay Self-supervision

4.2.1 Relay Hardware Supervision


The DSP, RAM, ROM chips on the CPU module are monitored to ensure whether they are
damaged or have some errors. If any one of them is detected damaged or having error, the
equipment will be blocked and issues alarm signal [Alm_Fail]. The LED indicator “HEALTHY” will
be extinguished.

4.2.2 DC Supply Supervision


The secondary voltage level of the built-in DC/DC converter is monitored and checked whether the
DC voltage is within a prescribed range.

If a failure is detected in the DC power supply circuit, the alarm signal [Alm_Pwr_DC] will be
issued and the relay will be blocked. The LED indicator “HEALTHY” will be extinguished.

4.2.3 Output Tripping Circuit Supervision

Chips controlling the output relays in the output circuit are continually monitored. If any error or
damage is detected in these chips, the alarm signal [Alm_TrpOut] will be issued and the relay will
be blocked. The LED indicator “HEALTHY” will be extinguished.

This relay has several setting groups, while only one is active at the same time. The settings of
active setting group are checked to ensure they are reasonable. If the settings are checked to be
invalid, the alarm signal [Alm_Setting] will be issued and this equipment will be blocked at the
same time. The LED indicator “HEALTHY” will be extinguished.

4.2.5 Control Circuit Supervision


If the relay detects that the 52b (TWJ) contact position and the 52a (HWJ) contact position are off
at the same time for more than 3 seconds, the alarm signal [Alm_TCCS] will be issued and the
LED indicator “ALARM” will be lit.

4.2.6 TWJ (52b) Contact Supervision


If the relay detects that the TWJ (52b) contact position is on, i.e., the value of [BI_52b] is “1” in the
submenu “BI STATE”, meanwhile any phase current is more than 0.06In, and this condition lasts
more than 10 seconds, the alarm signal [Alm_52b] will be issued and the LED indicator “ALARM”
will be lit.

4.2.7 VT Circuit Supervision


The voltage transformer supervision (VTS) feature is used to detect failure of the AC voltage
inputs to the relay.

The VTS logic in the relay is designed to detect the voltage failure and automatically adjust the
configuration of protective elements whose stability would otherwise be compromised. A
time-delay alarm output is also available.

The VTS feature within the relay operates on detection of

(1) negative phase sequence (NPS) voltage is in excess of 8V or

(2) positive phase sequence (PPS) voltage is less than 30V with the presence of current of any
phase (I.e., any of the phase current is in excess of 0.06In ).

This gives operation for the loss of voltages. Stability of the VTS function is assured during system
fault conditions, by the presence of any pickup element.

Repeated here, the criteria of VTS Element:

(1) U1<30V and any of phase current is greater than 0.06In

(2) U2>8V

That any of these two conditions is satisfied means the VT is in abnormal status. Then the VT
alarm “Alm_VTS” is issued 10s later. When the VT status returns to normal condition, the alarm
will be restored automatically 1.25s later.

In case VT circuit is failure, protection elements dependent on voltage will be blocked.

The logic diagram of the VTS element is shown as below.

Chapter 4 Supervision, Metering and Control

Figure 4.2-1 Logic diagram of the VTS element

4.2.8 CT Failure Supervision


The main purpose of the current transformer (CT) circuit failure supervision function is to detect
faults in the secondary circuits of CT and avoid influence on the operation of corresponding
protection functions. This CT failure supervision function will be processed all the time, whether
general fault detection picks up or not.

The criteria of CTS element are:

Time delay CT failure supervision executes in every sampling period. If any phase differential
current is in excess of 0.08In and this condition lasts for 10s, alarm information [Alm_CTS] will be
issued by the equipment. Under this condition, percentage differential current protection is not
blocked.

4.2.9 System Frequency Supervision


The frequency of the power system is supervised continually. When the phase-to-phase voltage is
greater than 40V, meanwhile the power system frequency is less than 49.5Hz, the LED indicator
“ALARM” will be lit and the alarm signal [Alm_Freq] will be issued 10s later.

In case system is abnormal, protection elements will not be blocked.

The logic diagram of the frequency supervision element is shown as below.

Figure 4.2-2 Logic diagram of the frequency supervision element

4.3 Metering

The relay produces a variety of both directly and calculated power system quantities. These
measurement values are updated on a per second basis and can be viewed in the submenu
“METERING” (in menu “VALUES”) of the relay or via relay communication.

This relay is able to measure and display the following quantities as summarized:

l phase voltage

l phase current

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 25


Chapter 4 Supervision, Metering and Control

l zero sequence current (from zero sequence CT or derived)

l phase to phase voltage

l system frequency

l active and reactive power, power factor

l active energy and reactive energy

The measurands include IaM, IcM, I0, Ua, Ub, Uc, Uab, Ubc, Uca, f, P, Q and COSφ etc. These
measurands are got by real-time calculation and real-time summation locally. Active and reactive
power calculation eliminates error due to unbalance of the system voltage. This calculation is
independent with network.

All these measurands also can transmit to the SAS or RTU through communication. More
information about the communication and protocols, see Chapter 8 “Communication”.

4.4 Remote Control

The relay can receive the remote control commands to trip or close the circuit breaker. Up to three
groups telecontrol output relays can be configured.

Before executing a telecontrol command, it is necessary to put the telecontrol handle at the
“Remote” position and make the value of [EBI_TeleCtrl] as “1” in the submenu “BI STATE”.

The remote control commands include remote tripping command, remote closing command etc.
More information about the communication and protocols, see Chapter 8 “Communication”.

It is recommended that separate relay output contacts are allocated for remote circuit breaker
control and protection tripping. This enables the control outputs to be selected via a local/remote
selector switch. Where this feature is not required the same output contact(s) can be used for both
protection and remote tripping.

4.5 Signaling

4.5.1 General Purpose Binary Input

General purpose binary inputs are used to monitor the positions of up to ten contacts. They have a
common negative pole input. See Chapter 5 “Hardware Description” for the details about these
binary inputs.

The signal state change confirmation time of the BI_1 and BI_2 can be set respectively. Other
inputs (BI_3 ~ BI_10) have the same confirmation time, it is default 20ms and can be settable.

4.5.2 Special Purpose Binary Input


The BI_19 ~ BI_25 are used as special purpose binary inputs, such as protection logic calculation,
restoring signals etc.

26 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 4 Supervision, Metering and Control

These inputs (BI_19 ~ BI_25) have the same signal state change confirmation time, it is 10ms.

The following table lists these special inputs.

Binary Input Terminal number Description


BI_19 324 Binary input of the No.3 mechanical protection
BI_20 325 Binary input of the No.2 mechanical protection
BI_21 326 Binary input of the No.1 mechanical protection
BI_22 327 Enabling binary input of the undervoltage protection
BI_23 328 Binary input of the heat resetting signal
BI_24 329 Binary input of the signal resetting signal
BI_25 330 Binary input of the device maintenance signal

l The BI_19 is used to denote whether the No.3 mechanical protection has input signal to this
relay. If it’s energized, it means that this relay receives a mechanical protection signal. If the
state of BI_19 keeps for a relevant duration, this relay will issue a tripping or alarm signal.

l The BI_20 is used to denote whether the No.2 mechanical protection has input signal to this
relay. If it’s energized, it means that this relay receives a mechanical protection signal. If the
state of BI_20 keeps for a relevant duration, this relay will issue a tripping or alarm signal.

l The BI_21 is used to denote whether the No.1 mechanical protection has input signal to this
relay. If it’s energized, it means that this relay receives a mechanical protection signal. If the
state of BI_21 keeps for a relevant duration, this relay will issue a tripping signal.

l The BI_22 is used to enable or disable the undervoltage protection. If it’s energized, the
external condition that decides the relevant protection to put into service is fulfilled.

l The BI_23 is used to reset the motor thermal state monitored by the relay. If it’s energized, the
relay will clear the motor thermal state and permit to close the circuit breaker.

l The BI_24 is used to reset the LCD and the LED indicators in the front panel of this relay. If it’s
energized, the LCD and LED indicators will run as they are in normal condition.

l The BI_25 is used to denote whether the relay is under maintenance or commissioning. If it’s
energized, it means that the relay doesn’t transmit any message through the uplink
communication interfaces.

Chapter 5 Hardware Description

NOTE: The hardware configuration of the RCS-9626CN must be definitely declared in

the technical scheme and the contract.

Figure 5.1-2 shows the front panel and the rear panel of the RCS-9626CN (fully equipped).

Figure 5.1-2 Front panel and rear panel of the RCS-9626CN

5.2 Basic Enclosure

The basic enclosure for the RCS-9626CN is an electronic equipment rack (see Figure 5.2-1) with
an adequate number of slots for the AC module, DC module, SWI module and ODI module. The
basic rack is equipped with a back plane (mother board), and the CPU module is equipped with
the basic rack. The back plane provides some back plane lines for distributing signals within the
enclosure.

Chapter 5 Hardware Description

There are six slots in the rack of RCS-9626CN, which can be populated with four modules: AC
module, DC module, SWI module, ODI module. Typical allocation of slots is shown in Figure 5.2-2.

Figure 5.2-2 Allocation of the slots in the RCS-9626CN (rear view)

5.3 AC Module

The AC module is an analog input unit. It contains three voltage transformers and nine current
transformers. It can transform these high AC input values to relevant low AC output value, which
are suited to the analog inputs of the CPU module. It also can be thought as a bridge between the
CPU module and the external analog signals that come into the relay. The transformers are used
both to step-down the currents and voltages to levels appropriate to the relay’s electronic circuitry
and to provide effective isolation between the relay and the power system. A low pass filter circuit
is connected to each transformer (CT and VT) secondary circuit for reducing the noise of each
analog AC input signal.

NOTE: The rated value of the input current transformer is optional: 1A or 5A. The rated

value of the CT must be definitely declared in the technical scheme and the contract.

NOTE: Because the rated value of the input current transformer is optional, it is

necessary to check that whether the rated values of the current transformer inputs are
accordant to the demand of the practical engineering before putting the device into
operation.

The front view of the AC module is shown in Figure 5.3-1.

DANGER: Never allow the current transformer (CT) secondary circuit connected to this

equipment to be opened while the primary system is live. Opening the CT circuit will
produce a dangerously high voltage. If this safety precaution is disregarded, personal
death, severe personal injury or considerable equipment damage will occur.

5.4 CPU Module

The CPU module is the kernel part of this equipment, and contains a powerful microchip processor
and some necessary electronic elements. This powerful processor performs all of the functions for
the relay: the protection functions, the communication management functions. There are several
A/D conversion circuits on this module, which are used to convert the AC analog signals to
corresponding DC signals for fulfilling the demand of the electrical level standard. A high-accuracy
clock chip is contained in this module, it provide accurate current time for the RCS-9626CN.

The functional details of the CPU module are listed as below:

l Protection calculations

The CPU module can calculate protective elements (such as overcurrent element, zero
sequence overcurrent etc.) based on the analog inputs form the AC module and binary inputs
from the DC module, and then decides that whether the device need to trip or reclose.

l Communication management

The CPU module can effectively manage the communication procedure, and reliably send out
some useful information through its various communication interfaces. Two serial interfaces
for SAS or RTU, up to three Ethernet interfaces for SAS or RTU and one serial interface for
the printer are contained in this module. A 20-pin interface for the connection with the HMI
module is contained in this module too. If an event is occurred (such as SOE, protective
tripping event etc.), this module will send out the relevant event information through these
interfaces, and make it be easily observed by the user.

l Auxiliary calculations

Basing on the analog inputs, the CPU module also can calculate out the measurement values,
such as active power, reactive power and power factor etc. All these values can be sent to a
SAS or a RTU through the communication interfaces.

l Clock Synchronization

This module has a local clock chip and an interface to receive clock synchronized signals
from external clock source. These signals include PPS (pulse per second) signal and IRIG-B
signal. Basing on the timing message (from SAS or RTU) and the PPS signal, or basing on
the IRIG-B signal, this module can make the local clock synchronize with the standard clock.

There are some jumpers on this module for various purposes. The jumpers JP2 (“ARM-JTAG”) is
used to connect with an ARM simulator, and the jumper J1 (“DSP-JTAG”) is used to connect with a
DSP simulator. The jumper J5 (“CPLD-JTAG”) is used to program the CPLD chip on this module.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 33


Chapter 5 Hardware Description

All above jumpers are reserved for the manufacturer to develop and debug the relevant programs
of this module; the user needn’t use anyone of them.

NOTE: In a regular application, anyone of the above jumpers must be kept the state that

has been set by the manufacturer. Any change of the configuration of the above jumpers
is not permitted.

The jumper JP2 is used to download the relevant programs of the CPU module. When the jumper
JP2 is connected, writing the DSP program to the corresponding flash memory is permitted.

NOTE: In a regular application, the jumper JP2 is unconnected. This jumper is only

reserved for the manufacturer to refresh the programs of the CPU module.

5.5 HMI Module

The HMI module is installed on the front panel of RCS-9626CN (see Figure 5.5-1). It is used to
observe the running status and event information on the LCD, and configure the protection
settings and device operation mode. A 160×80-dot matrix backlight LCD, a 9-key keypad, five LED
indicators are contained in this module. All these can help the user to know the status of the
equipment and detailed event information easily, and provide convenient and friendly access
interface for the user. For further details, see Chapter 6 “Human-machine Interface”.

The elements and their functions of the HMI module are listed as follow.

l A 160×80-dot matrix backlight LCD

5.6 DC Module

The power supply module is a DC/DC converter with electrical insulation between input and output,
and an output power of 30W. The power supply module has an input voltage range as described in
Chapter 2 “Technical Data”. The standardized output voltages are +3.3V, +5V, ±12V and +24V DC.
The tolerances of the output voltages are continuously monitored.

The +3.3V DC output provides power supply for the microchip processors, and the +5V DC output
provides power supply for all the electrical elements that need +5V DC power supply in the
RCS-9626CN. The ±12V DC output provides power supply for A/D conversion circuits in this
device, and the +24V DC output provides power supply for the static relays on the operation
circuits (ODI module, SWI module).

The input of the power supply module is protected by a 3.15A / 250 V slow fuse. The current surge
when energizing the power supply module is limited to 3.15A. The use of an external miniature
circuit breaker is recommended. The circuit breaker must be in the on position when the device is
in operation and in the off position when the device is in cold reserve.

Ten regular optical insulation binary inputs and seven special optical insulation binary inputs are
contained in this module. The regular optical insulation binary inputs are used to monitor the
position of the regular binary signals; the special optical insulation binary inputs are used to
monitor the position of the special binary signals, which must be taken into account in the
protection calculations and communication management of the CPU module.

A built-in extension interfaces module of the CPU module is equipped on the DC module. Three

5.7 SWI Module

The SWI module consists of some necessary contact outputs, such as trip-outputs, signal outputs
etc. It can receive tripping commands or reclosing commands from the CPU module, and then
execute these commands. This module also can send out some necessary binary output signals
(dry contact) to the SAS or RTU according to the relevant commands from the CPU module.

A triggering relay (controlled by the fault detector) controls all other protection tripping relays in this
module. Other protection tripping relays will not be de-energized until the triggering relay is
energized.

Following figure shows schematic diagram of the operating circuit. Anti-pump circuit of the
breaker’s contacts is provided in this circuit.

l Circuit Breaker Open State Supervision

The relays TWJ is applied to supervise the open state of circuit breaker when terminal 419 is
connected to the negative pole of power supply in series with normal closed auxiliary contact
of circuit breaker (52b).

In addition, if terminal 419 is connected with terminal 418, i.e. connected with normal closed
auxiliary contact of circuit breaker (52b) and its close coil (CC), the relay TWJ can provide
supervision on health of close coil (CC) as well.

Chapter 5 Hardware Description

The LED indicator “CB OPEN” in green lighting shows the open state of the circuit breaker.

l Circuit Breaker Closed State Supervision

The relays HWJ is applied to supervise the open state of circuit breaker when terminal 417 is
connected to the negative pole of power supply in series with normal open auxiliary contact of
circuit breaker (52a).

In addition, if terminal 417 is connected with terminal 416, i.e. connected with normal open
auxiliary contact of circuit breaker (52a) and its trip coil (TC), the relay HWJ can provide
supervision on health of trip coil (TC) as well.

A normal closed contact of HWJ serials with a normal closed contact of TWJ can initiate a
control circuit failure annunciation by the terminal 421 and 426.

The LED indicator “CB CLOSE” in red lighting shows the open state of the circuit breaker.

l Closing Circuit

Manual closing signal arrives at terminal 410. Terminal 418 shall be connected to close coil
(CC) in series with normal open auxiliary contact of circuit breaker (52b).

HBJ is a seal-in auxiliary relay, whose pickup current is adaptive to the closing current in the
range of 0.5A-4.0A.

Even if closing signal disappears, the normal open contact of relay HBJ will keep closing to
maintain closing circuits working until circuit breaker is closed successfully and the auxiliary
contact of circuit breaker (52b) is open. TBJV is the anti-pump relay; the details of the TBJV
relay are described in following section.

l Trip Circuit

Protection trip signal arrives at terminal 414, and manual trip signal arrives at terminal 411.
Terminal 416 shall be connected to trip coil (TC) in series with normal open auxiliary contact of
circuit breaker (52a). Terminal 414 shall be connected with terminal 409 by an isolator link.

TBJ is a seal-in auxiliary relay, whose pickup current is adaptive to the trip current in the range
of 0.5A-4.0A.

Even if tripping signal disappears, the normal open contact of relay TBJ will keep closing to
maintain trip circuits working until circuit breaker is tripped successfully and normal open
auxiliary contact of circuit breaker (52a) is open. TBJ is also used in anti-pump circuit; the
details of the TBJ relay are described in following section.

l KKJ

KKJ is a bi-stable auxiliary relay. When circuit breaker is closed manually, the relay KKJ will
pick up and latch, when circuit breaker is tripped manually, the relay KKJ will reset. The
normal open contact of KKJ can be used together with normal closed auxiliary contact of
circuit breaker (52b), to initiate auto-recloser in case that circuit breaker trips especially
without any trip commands from protection and manual switch. A normal open contact is
provided to denote the position of the KKJ relay via terminals 406 and 407.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 39


Chapter 5 Hardware Description

l Anti-pump

Anti-pump function is achieved via auxiliary relay TBJV.

In the event that a breaker is closed onto a fault, while the operator is applying a close signal
via a closed control switch, the circuit breaker will trip and prevent further closing again until
the closing circuit has been de-energized by the operator releasing the control switch.

When trip signal comes and at the same time close signal persists, the normal open contact of
TBJ will close and TBJV will operate and keep sealed with its’ own normal open contact. The
normal closed contact of TBJV will cut off closing circuit to prevent any further closing.

Two jumpers on this module are used to configure the output mode of the two reserved output
contacts (427~428, 429~430) respectively. If pin-1 and pin-2 are connected, the action of the
relevant reserved output contact is in the control of the triggering relay (controlled by the fault
detector); if pin-2 and pin-3 are connected, the relevant reserved output contact is out of the
control of the triggering relay.

The location of these available jumpers on the DC module is shown in Figure 5.7-3.

Figure 5.7-3 Jumpers on the SWI module

WARNING: The pins of each jumper must be connected according to one of the following

schemes: pin-1 and pin-2 are connected, or pin-2 and pin-3 are connected. Other
schemes are not permitted, otherwise it make the reserved tripping output relay work
abnormally.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 41


Chapter 5 Hardware Description

NOTE: The manufacture configures the first reserved output contact (427~428) as

reserved tripping output, and configures the second reserved output contact (429~430)
as forbidding restart contact. So the jumper T4 connects pin-1 with pin-2, and the jumper
T5 connects pin-2 with pin-3.

The ODI module consists of some necessary contact outputs, such as trip-outputs, signal outputs
etc. It can receive tripping commands or reclosing commands from the CPU module, and then act
according to these commands. This module also can send out some necessary binary output
signals (dry contact) to the SAS or RTU according to the relevant commands from the CPU
module. This module also can provide two DC 4~20mA analog outputs for measuring.

The front view of the ODI module is shown in Figure 5.8-1.

NOTE: The two DC analog outputs can send out 4~20mA current signals respectively. In

this relay, the first output sends out the “IA” measured value, and the second output
sends out the “P” measured value.

NOTE: In this relay, the output (501~502: RESV OUT A-1) in group A is used as tripping

signal output.

5.9 Module Configuration Scheme

The default hardware configuration of the RCS-9622CN includes a basic enclosure, an AC module,
a CPU module, a HMI module, a DC module and a SWI module. The SWI module only provides a
tripping output, a closing output, a remote tripping output, a remote closing output for the circuit
breaker with a spring mechanism. In some special applications, the ODI module can meet the
demands of the practical engineering. The ODI module is always used for the circuit breaker with
an operation circuit in itself.

According the demands of the practical engineering, various operation module configurations can
be selected. Three recommended schemes are used in practical engineering very usually.

The first recommended scheme is the default hardware configuration. The second recommended
scheme is using a SWI module and an ODI module together. The third recommended scheme is
only using an ODI module as the operation circuit of the device. Several parameters in the
auxiliary parameter submenu (item 2 to 3) are used to define the binary inputs (BI_1 to BI_2) as
special inputs. For more details about the relationship between the parameters and the
corresponding scheme, see Chapter 7 “Setting”.

6.9 Assistant Test Function

6.9.1 Overview
Assistant test function is used to test the equipment in factory or in field when commissioning.
Using this function may check the communication and binary output circuit conveniently, and thus
may decrease the workload and shorten the test time for a project. Assistant test function consists
of checking data-point, forcing metering value and testing the tripping output circuit. All test
functions have password protection and will be recorded simultaneously in the equipment for
further analysis.

NOTE: Assistant test function may issue tripping commands, binary input state changes

and metering values, thus it is recommended to use this function restrainedly.

6.9.2 Check the Data-point

This function is used to generate virtual binary signals locally, thus it is not necessary to do
protection test to check the data-point via communication bus. There are two methods in
this equipment to realize this function, which are: sequence test of all data-points and
select test of data-points. The former adopts auto-mode generating the data-points in turn,
and the latter adopts manual-mode generating a selected data-points. The data-points
include state changes of operation element, alarm information, protection isolator link,
binary input, etc. The generating reports will send out via message as well as be stored in
the equipment.

Detailed operation method is described bellow.

l Sequence test of all data-points

As soon as entering the submenu “ALL BI TEST”, the device begins to generate state
change information of the data-points one by one according to the sequence displaying on
the LCD. It will quit this submenu and return to upper menu automatically when

6.10 Understand the Alarms

Hardware circuit and operation condition of the equipment are self-supervised continuously. If any
abnormal condition is detected, information or report will be displayed and a corresponding alarm
will be issued.

A common abnormality may block a certain number of protection functions while other functions
can still work.

However, if serious hardware failure or abnormality were detected, all protection functions will be
blocked and the LED “HEALTHY” will be turned off.

When hardware failure is detected, all protection functions will be blocked and corresponding
alarm signal will be issued. The equipment then cannot work normally in this case and manual
maintenance is required to fix the failure.

Chapter 7 Settings

7.1 Overview

The settings are used to determine the characteristic of each protective element and operation
mode of the relay. It is necessary to configure the settings of this relay according to engineering
demands before putting this relay into service. If the settings aren’t configured correctly, the relay
maybe work abnormally (such as communication interrupted, printing out unexpected codes etc.),
even sometimes much more serious accident will occur (such as unwanted operation, missing
operation).

The settings of this relay include system settings, protection settings, communication settings and
miscellaneous settings. The user can configure these settings or parameters manually (see
Section 6.8.2 “Change the Settings”). Remote modification is also supported (IEC60870-5-103
over EIA RS-485 or Ethernet interface, see Chapter 8 “Communication”).

NOTE: If a CPU module is replaced, it is necessary to configure all the settings again

according to the configuration of the CPU module which is replaced.

NOTE: If an AC module is replaced, it is necessary to configure the setting “MAN CALBR”

according to the parameter label pasted on the new AC module.

7.2 System Settings (SYS SETTINGS)

The configuration of system settings is mainly used to set the rated value of VT and CT.

The following table lists all the system parameters.

Chapter 8 Communication

Chapter 8 Communication

8.1 General

This section outlines the remote data communication interfaces of the RCS-9626CN relay. The
relay only supports one protocol at present, and the protocol is IEC60870-5-103. Setting the
relevant communication parameter can select the IEC60870-5-103 protocol (see Section 7.4
“Communication Parameters”).

The two rear EIA RS-485 standardized interfaces are isolated, as well as the two Ethernet
interfaces, and are suitable for permanent connection whichever protocol is selected. The
advantage of this type of connection is that up to 32 relays can be “daisy chained” together using a
simple twisted pair electrical connection if serial port communication is used.

It should be noted that the descriptions contained within this section do not aim to fully detail the
protocol itself. The relevant documentation for the protocol should be referred to for this
information. This section serves to describe the specific implementation of the protocol in the relay.

8.2 Rear Communication Port Information

8.2.1 RS-485 Interface

This relay provides two rear RS-485 communication ports, and each port has two terminals in the
12-terminal screw connector located on the back of the relay. The two ports share a common
ground terminal for the earth shield of the communication cable. See Section 5.6 “DC Module” for
details of the connection terminals. The rear ports provide RS-485 serial data communication and
they are intended for use with a permanently wired connection to a remote control center.

The protocol provided by the relay is indicated in the relay’s submenu in the “EQUIP SETUP”
column. Using the keypad and LCD, configure the relevant communication protocol parameters,
the corresponding protocol and will be selected.

8.2.1.1 EIA RS-485 Standardized Bus

The EIA RS-485 two-wire connection provides a half-duplex fully isolated serial connection to the
product. The connection is polarized and whilst the product’s connection diagrams indicate the
polarization of the connection terminals it should be borne in mind that there is no agreed
definition of which terminal is which. If the master is unable to communicate with the product, and
the communication parameters match, then it is possible that the two-wire connection is reversed.

8.2.1.2 Bus Termination

The EIA RS-485 bus must have 120Ω (Ohm) ½ Watt terminating resistors fitted at either end
across the signal wires (see Figure 8.2-1). Some devices may be able to provide the bus
terminating resistors by different connection or configuration arrangements, in which case
separate external components will not be required. However, this product does not provide such a

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 89


Chapter 8 Communication

facility, so if it is located at the bus terminus then an external termination resistor will be required.

Figure 8.2-1 EIA RS-485 bus connection arrangements

8.2.1.3 Bus Connections & Topologies

The EIA RS-485 standard requires that each device is directly connected to the physical cable that
is the communications bus. Stubs and tees are expressly forbidden, such as star topologies. Loop
bus topologies are not part of the EIA RS-485 standard and are forbidden by it also.

Two-core screened cable is recommended. The specification of the cable will be dependent on the
application, although a multi-strand 0.5mm 2 per core is normally adequate. Total cable length must
not exceed 500m. The screen must be continuous and connected to ground at one end, normally
at the master connection point; it is important to avoid circulating currents, especially when the
cable runs between buildings, for both safety and noise reasons.

This product does not provide a signal ground connection. If a signal ground connection is present
in the bus cable then it must be ignored, although it must have continuity for the benefit of other
devices connected to the bus. At no stage must the signal ground be connected to the cables
screen or to the product’s chassis. This is for both safety and noise reasons.

8.2.1.4 Biasing

It may also be necessary to bias the signal wires to prevent jabber. Jabber occurs when the signal
level has an indeterminate state because the bus is not being actively driven. This can occur when
all the slaves are in receive mode and the master is slow to turn from receive mode to transmit
mode. This may be because the master purposefully waits in receive mode, or even in a high
impedance state, until it has something to transmit. Jabber causes the receiving device(s) to miss
the first bits of the first character in the packet, which results in the slave rejecting the message
and consequentially not responding. Symptoms of these are poor response times (due to retries),
increasing message error counters, erratic communications, and even a complete failure to
communicate.

Biasing requires that the signal lines be weakly pulled to a defined voltage level of about 1V. There
should only be one bias point on the bus, which is best situated at the master connection point.
The DC source used for the bias must be clean; otherwise noise will be injected. Note that some
devices may (optionally) be able to provide the bus bias, in which case external components will
not be required.

90 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 8 Communication

NOTE:

l It is extremely important that the 120Ω termination resistors are fitted. Failure to do so will
result in an excessive bias voltage that may damage the devices connected to the bus.

l As the field voltage is much higher than that required, NARI-RELAYS cannot assume
responsibility for any damage that may occur to a device connected to the network as a result
of incorrect application of this voltage.

l Ensure that the field voltage is not being used for other purposes (i.e. powering logic inputs)
as this may cause noise to be passed to the communication network.

8.2.2 Ethernet Interface


This relay provides two rear Ethernet interfaces and they are unattached each other. Parameters
of each Ethernet port can be configured in the submenu “EQUIP SETUP” except for the protocol,
and protocol is a uniform parameter for the two Ethernet ports.

8.2.2.1 IP Address and Equipment Address of the Equipment

A brief explanation of IP and network submask is made as bellow. There are four sections for an IP
address.

Where:

l Section 3 and section 2 can be set separately

l Section 1 × 256 + section 0 = equipment address (Comm_Addr)

Equipment address has above relationship described as an equation with section 1 and section 0
of IP address.

8.2.2.2 Ethernet Standardized Communication Cable

It is recommended to use twisted screened eight-core cable as the communication cable. A picture
is shown bellow.

Figure 8.2-3 Ethernet communication cable

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 91


Chapter 8 Communication

8.2.2.3 Connections and Topologies

Each device can connect to an exchanger via communication cable and thereby to form a star
structure network. Dual-network is recommended in order to increase reliability. SCADA is also
connected to the exchanger and will play a role of master station, so the every equipment which
has been connected to the exchanger will play a role of slave unit.

Figure 8.2-4 Ethernet communication structure

8.2.3 IEC60870-5-103 Communication


The IEC specification IEC60870-5-103: Telecontrol Equipment and Systems, Part 5: Transmission
Protocols Section 103 defines the use of standards IEC60870-5-1 to IEC60870-5-5 to perform
communication with protection equipment. The standard configuration for the IEC60870-5-103
protocol is to use a twisted pair EIA RS-485 connection over distances up to 500m. It also supports
to use an Ethernet connection. The relay operates as a slave in the system, responding to
commands from a master station.

To use the rear port with IEC60870-5-103 communication, the relay’s relevant settings must be
configured. To do this use the keypad and LCD user interface. In the submenu “EQUIP SETUP”,
set the parameter [COM1_Protocol] or [COM2_Protocol] as “1”, then set the baud rate of each
rear port. For using the Ethernet port with IEC60870-5-103 communication, set the parameter
[NET_Protocol] as “1”, and then the IP address and submask of each Ethernet port must be set.
See Section 7.4 for further details.

8.3 IEC60870-5-103 Interface

The IEC60870-5-103 interface is a master/slave interface with the relay as the slave device.

The relay conforms to compatibility level 2; compatibility level 3 is not supported.

The following IEC60870-5-103 facilities are supported by this interface:

92 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 8 Communication

l Initialization (reset)

l Time synchronization

l Event record extraction

l General interrogation

l Cyclic measurements

l General commands

l Disturbance records

8.3.1 Physical Connection and Link Layer

Two EIA RS-485 standardized ports are available for IEC60870-5-103 in this relay. The
transmission speed is optional: 4800 bit/s, 9600 bit/s, 19200 bit/s or 38400 bit/s.

Two or three unattached Ethernet ports are available for IEC60870-5-103 in this relay. The
transmission speed is 100M/s.

The link layer strictly abides by the rules defined in the IEC60870-5-103.

8.3.2 Initialization

Whenever the relay has been powered up, or if the communication parameters have been
changed, a reset command is required to initialize the communications. The relay will respond to
either of the two reset commands (Reset CU or Reset FCB), the difference is that the Reset CU
will clear any unsent messages in the relay’s transmit buffer.

The relay will respond to the reset command with an identification message ASDU 5, the COT
(Cause Of Transmission) of this response will be either Reset CU or Reset FCB depending on the
nature of the reset command.

In addition to the above identification message, if the relay has been powered up it will also
produce a power up event.

8.3.3 Time Synchronization

The relay time and date can be set using the time synchronization feature of the IEC60870-5-103
protocol. The relay will correct for the transmission delay as specified in IEC60870-5-103. If the
time synchronization message is sent as a send/confirm message then the relay will respond with
a confirmation. Whether the time-synchronization message is sent as a send confirmation or a
broadcast (send/no reply) message, a time synchronization Class 1 event will be
generated/produced.

If the relay clock is synchronized using the IRIG-B input then it will not be possible to set the relay
time using the IEC60870-5-103 interface. An attempt to set the time via the interface will cause the
relay to create an event with the current date and time taken from the IRIG-B synchronized internal
clock.

The GI can be used to read the status of the relay, the function numbers, and information numbers
that will be returned during the GI cycle. The GI cycle strictly abides by the rules defined in the
IEC60870-5-103.

The relay will respond to this GI command with an ASDU 44 message, the cause of transmission
(COT) of this response is 9.

Referring the IEC60870-5-103 standard can get the enough details about general interrogation.

8.3.6 Cyclic Measurements

The relay will produce measured values using ASDU 50 on a cyclical basis, this can be read from
the relay using a Class 2 poll (note ADSU 3 and ASDU 9 are not used).

The cause of transmission is 2. The rate at which the relay produces new measured values is fixed
(about one second). The following table shows all the measurands.

equipment. The RCS-9626CN modules, bus backplanes are sensitive to electrostatic


discharge when not in the unit's housing.

The basic precautions to guard against electrostatic discharge are as follows:

l Should boards have to be removed from RCS-9626CN installed in a grounded cubicle in an


HV switchgear installation, discharge yourself by touching station ground (the cubicle)
beforehand.

l Only hold electronic boards at the edges, taking care not to touch the components.

l Only works on boards that have been removed from the cubicle on a workbench designed for
electronic equipment and wear a grounded wristband. Do not wear a grounded wristband,
however, while inserting or withdrawing units.

l Always store and ship the electronic boards in their original packing. Place electronic parts in
electrostatic screened packing materials.

9.3 Checking the Shipment

Check that the consignment is complete immediately upon receipt. Notify the nearest
NARI-RELAYS Company or agent, should departures from the delivery note, the shipping papers
or the order be found.

Visually inspect all the material when unpacking it. When there is evidence of transport damage,
lodge a claim immediately in writing with the last carrier and notify the nearest NARI-RELAYS
Company or agent.

If the equipment is not going to be installed immediately, store all the parts in their original packing
in a clean dry place at a moderate temperature. The humidity should not exceed 90% at a
maximum temperature of +55°C; the permissible storage temperature range in dry air is -40°C to
+70°C.

9.4 Material and Tools Required

The necessary mounting kits will be provided, including screws, pincers and assembly
instructions.

A suitable drill and spanners are required to secure the cubicles to the floor using the plugs
provided (if RCS-9626CN is mounted in cubicles).

9.5 Device Location and Ambient Conditions

The place of installation should permit easy access especially to front of the device, i.e. to the
human-machine interface of the equipment.

There should also be free access at the rear of the equipment for additions and replacement of

100 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 9 Installation

electronic boards.

Since every piece of technical equipment can be damaged or destroyed by inadmissible ambient
conditions, such as:

1) The location should not be exposed to excessive air pollution (dust, aggressive substances).

2) Severe vibration, extreme changes of temperature, high levels of humidity, surge voltages of
high amplitude and short rise time and strong induced magnetic fields should be avoided as
far as possible.

3) Air must not be allowed to circulate freely around the equipment.

The equipment can in principle be mounted in any attitude, but it is normally mounted vertically
(visibility of markings).

WARNING: Excessively high temperature can appreciably reduce the operating life of

the RCS-9626CN.

9.6 Mechanical Installation

This device is made of a single layer 6U height 6” chassis with 4 connectors on its rear panel (See
Figure 5.1-2). Figure 9.6-1 shows the dimensions of RCS-9626CN for reference in mounting.

NOTE: It is necessary to leave enough space top and bottom of the cut-out in the cubicle

for heat emission of the RCS-9626CN.

As mentioned former (Chapter 5 “Hardware Description”), up to four modules are installed in the
enclosure of the RCS-9626CN, and these modules must be plugged into the proper slots of the
RCS-9626CN respectively. The safety instructions must be abided by when installing the boards,
see Section 9.2 “Safety Instructions”. Figure 9.6-2 shows the installation way that a module is
being plugged into a corresponding slot.

Figure 9.6-2 Demonstration of plugging a board into its corresponding slot

In the case of equipment supplied in cubicles, place the cubicles on the foundations that have
been prepared. Take care while doing so not to jam or otherwise damage any of the cables that
have already been installed. Secure the cubicles to the foundations.

9.7 Electrical 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.

102 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 9 Installation

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.

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).

9.7.3 Ground Connection on the Device

There is a ground terminal on the rear panel (see Figure 9.7-2), 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.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 103


Chapter 9 Installation

There are some ground terminals on some connectors of the RCS-9626CN, and the sign is “GND”.
All the ground terminals are connected in the cabinet of this relay. So, the ground terminal on the
rear panel (see Figure 9.7-2) is the only ground terminal of this device.

Figure 9.7-2 Ground terminal of the RCS-9626CN

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 grounding 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, 4.0mm 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.

Figure 9.7-3 Ground strip and termination

9.7.5 Guidelines for Wiring

There are several types of cables that are used in the connection of RCS-9626CN: braided copper
cable, serial communication cable.

Recommendation of each cable:

l Grounding: braided copper cable, threaded M4, 4.0mm2

104 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 9 Installation

l Serial communication: 4-core shielded braided cable

l DC Power supply, Binary Output: brained copper cable, 1.5mm 2

9.7.6 Wiring for Electrical Cables


A female connector is used for connecting the wires with it, and then a female connector plugs into
a corresponding male connector that is in the front of one board. For further details about the pin
defines of these connectors, see Chapter 5 “Hardware Description”.

The following figure shows the glancing demo about the wiring for the electrical cables.

Figure 9.7-4 Glancing demo about the wiring for electrical cables

WARNING: Never allow the current transformer (CT) secondary circuit connected to this

equipment to be opened while the primary system is live. Opening the CT circuit will
produce a dangerously high voltage.

Chapter 10 Commissioning

10.1 General

This relay is fully numerical in their design, implementing all protection and non-protection
functions in software. The relay employ a high degree of self-checking and in the unlikely event of
a failure, will give an alarm. As a result of this, the commissioning test does not need to be as
extensive as with non-numeric electronic or electro-mechanical relays.

To commission numerical relays, it is only necessary to verify that the hardware is functioning
correctly and the application-specific software settings have been applied to the relay.

Blank commissioning test and setting records are provided at the end of this manual for
completion as required.

Before carrying out any work on the equipment, the user should be familiar with the contents of the
safety and technical data sections and the ratings on the equipment’s rating label.

10.2 Safety Instructions

WARNING: Hazardous voltages are present in this electrical equipment during operation.

Non-observance of the safety rules can result in severe personal injury or property
damage.

WARNING: Only qualified personnel shall work on and around this equipment after

becoming thoroughly familiar with all warnings and safety notices of this manual as well
as with the applicable safety regulations.

Particular attention must be drawn to the following:

l The earthing screw of the device must be connected solidly to the protective earth conductor
before any other electrical connection is made.

l Hazardous voltages can be present on all circuits and components connected to the supply
voltage or to the measuring and test quantities.

l Hazardous voltages can be present in the device even after disconnection of the supply
voltage (storage capacitors!)

l The limit values stated in the technical data (Chapter 2) must not be exceeded at all, not even
during testing and commissioning.

l When testing the device with secondary test equipment, make sure that no other
measurement quantities are connected. Take also into consideration that the trip circuits and
maybe also close commands to the circuit breakers and other primary switches are

with the commissioning of protection system, the operation of the plant and safety rules
and regulations (switching, earthing, etc.)

10.3 Commission Tools

Minimum equipment required:

l Multifunctional dynamic current and voltage injection test set with interval timer.

l Multimeter with suitable AC current range and AC/DC voltage ranges of 0 ~ 440V and 0 ~
250V respectively.

l Continuity tester (if not included in the multimeter).

l Phase angle meter.

l Phase rotation meter.

NOTE: Modern test set may contain many of the above features in one unit.

Optional equipment:

l An electronic or brushless insulation tester with a DC output not exceeding 500V (for
insulation resistance test when required).

l A portable PC, with appropriate software (this enables the rear communications port to be
tested, if this is to be used, and will also save considerable time during commissioning).

l EIA RS-485 to EIA RS-232 converter (if EIA RS-485 IEC60870-5-103 port is being tested).

l An EPSON® 300K printer.

l RCS-9000 serials dedicated protection tester TEST or HELP-90.

10.4 Setting Familiarization

When commissioning a RCS-9626CN relay for the first time, sufficient time should be allowed to
become familiar with the method by which the settings are applied. The Chapter 6 contains a
detailed description of the menu structure of this relay.

With the front cover in place all keys are accessible. All menu cells can be read from local LCD.
LED indicators and alarms can be reset. Protection or configuration settings can be changed, or

108 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 10 Commissioning

fault and event records cleared. However, menu cells will require the appropriate password to be
entered before changes can be made.

Alternatively, if a portable PC is available together with suitable setting software (such as


RCS-9700 SAS software), the menu can be viewed a page at a time to display a full column of
data and text. This PC software also allows settings to be entered more easily, saved to a file on
disk for future reference or printed to produce a setting record. Refer to the PC software user
manual for details. If the software is being used for the first time, allow sufficient time to become
familiar with its operation.

10.5 Product Checks

These product checks cover all aspects of the relay which should be checked to ensure that it has
not been physically damaged prior to commissioning, is functioning correctly and all input quantity
measurements are within the stated tolerances.

If the application-specific settings have been applied to the relay prior to commissioning, it is
advisable to make a copy of the settings so as to allow them restoration later. This could be done
by extracting the settings from the relay itself via printer or manually creating a setting record.

10.5.1 With the Relay De-energized

The RCS-9626CN serial motor protection is fully numerical and the hardware is continuously
monitored. Commissioning tests can be kept to a minimum and need only include hardware tests
and conjunctive tests. The function tests are carried out according to user’s correlative regulations.

The following tests are necessary to ensure the normal operation of the equipment before it is first
put into service.

l Hardware tests

These tests are performed for the following hardware to ensure that there is no hardware
defect. Defects of hardware circuits other than the following can be detected by
self-monitoring when the DC power is supplied.

l User interfaces test

l Binary input circuits and output circuits test

l AC input circuits test

l Function tests

These tests are performed for the following functions that are fully software-based. Tests of
the protection schemes and fault locator require a dynamic test set.

l Measuring elements test

l Timers test

l Conjunctive tests

The tests are performed after the relay is connected with the primary equipment and other
external equipment.

l On load test.

l Phase sequence check and polarity check.

10.5.1.1 Visual Inspection

After unpacking the product, check for any damage to the relay case. If there is any damage, the
internal module might also have been affected, contact the vendor. Following items listed is
necessary.

l Protection panel

Carefully examine the protection panel, protection equipment inside and other parts inside to
see that no physical damage has occurred since installation.

The rated information of other auxiliary protections should be checked to ensure it is correct
for the particular installation.

l Panel wiring

Check the conducting wire which is used in the panel to assure that their cross section
meeting the requirement.

Carefully examine the wiring to see that they are no connection failure exists.

l Label

Check all the isolator binary inputs, terminal blocks, indicators, switches and push buttons to
make sure that their labels meet the requirements of this project.

l Equipment plug-in modules

Check each plug-in module of the equipments on the panel to make sure that they are well
installed into the equipment without any screw loosened.

l Earthing cable

Check whether the earthing cable from the panel terminal block is safely screwed to the panel
steel sheet.

l Switch, keypad, isolator binary inputs and push button

Check whether all the switches, equipment keypad, isolator binary inputs and push buttons
work normally and smoothly.

10.5.1.2 Insulation Test (if required)

Insulation resistance tests are only necessary during commissioning if it is required for them to be
done and they have not been performed during installation.

110 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 10 Commissioning

Isolate all wiring from the earth and test the isolation with an electronic or brushless insulation
tester at a DC voltage not exceeding 500V, The circuits need to be tested should include:

l Voltage transformer circuits

l Current transformer circuits

l DC power supply

l Optic-isolated control inputs

l Output contacts

l Communication ports

The insulation resistance should be greater than 100MΩ at 500V.

Test method:

To unplug all the terminals sockets of this relay, and do the Insulation resistance test for each
circuit above with an electronic or brushless insulation tester.

On completion of the insulation resistance tests, ensure all external wiring is correctly reconnected
to the protection

10.5.1.3 Check the Jumpers

In general, the jumpers of the relay have been set correctly before sent to user. While, checking
the jumpers is a good habit before the relay is brought to service. Setting method of the jumpers is
explained in Chapter 5 detailedly.

10.5.1.4 External Wiring

Check that the external wiring is correct to the relevant relay diagram and scheme diagram.
Ensure as far as practical that phasing/phase rotation appears to be as expected.

Check the wiring against the schematic diagram for the installation to ensure compliance with the
customer’s normal practice.

10.5.1.5 Auxiliary Supply

The relay can be operated from either 110/125Vdc or 220/250Vdc auxiliary supply depending on
the relay’s nominal supply rating. The incoming voltage must be within the operating range
specified in the following table, before energizing the relay, measure the auxiliary supply to ensure
it within the operating range.

Rated Voltage 110/125Vdc 220/250Vdc


Variation 80% ~ 120% 80% ~ 120%

It should be noted that the relay can withstand an AC ripple of up to 12% of the upper rated voltage
on the DC auxiliary supply.

WARNING: Energize the relay only if the auxiliary supply is within the specified operating

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 111


Chapter 10 Commissioning

ranges.

10.5.2 With the Relay Energized

The following groups of checks verify that the relay hardware and software is functioning correctly
and should be carried out with the auxiliary supply applied to the relay.

The current and voltage transformer connections must remain isolated from the relay for these
checks. The trip circuit should also remain isolated to prevent accidental operation of the
associated circuit breaker.

10.5.2.1 Front Panel LCD Display

The liquid crystal display (LCD) is designed to operate in a wide range of substation ambient
temperatures. For this purpose, this relay has an automatic “LCD contrast” adjusting feature,
which is capable to adjust LCD contrast automatically according to the ambient temperature.

Connect the relay to DC power supply correctly and turn the relay on. Check program version and
forming time displayed in command menu to ensure that they are corresponding to what ordered.

10.5.2.2 Date and Time

If the time and date is not being maintained by substation automation system, the date and time
should be set manually.

Set the date and time to the correct local time and date using menu item “CLOCK”.

In the event of the auxiliary supply failing, with a battery fitted on CPU board, the time and date will
be maintained. Therefore when the auxiliary supply is restored the time and date will be correct
and not need to set again.

To test this, remove the auxiliary supply from the relay for approximately 30s. After being
re-energized, the time and date should be correct.

10.5.2.3 Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs)

On power up, the green LED “HEALTHY” should have been lit and stayed on indicating that the
relay is healthy.

The relay has latched signal relays which remember the state of the trip, auto-reclose when the
relay was last energized from an auxiliary supply. Therefore these indicators may also be lit when
the auxiliary supply is applied. If any of these LEDs are on then they should be reset before
proceeding with further testing. If the LED successfully reset, the LED goes out. There is no testing
required for that LED because it is known to be operational.

It is likely that alarms related to voltage transformer supervision will not reset at this stage.

10.5.2.4 Testing the HEALTHY and ALARM LEDs

Apply the rated DC Power supply and check that the “HEALTHY” LED is lighting in green. We
need to emphasize that the “HEALTHY” LED is always lighting in operation course except that the
equipment find serious errors in it.

112 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD


Chapter 10 Commissioning

Produce one of the abnormal conditions listed in Chapter 4, the “ALARM” LED will light in yellow.
When abnormal condition reset, the “ALARM” LED extinguishes.

10.5.2.5 Testing the TRIP LED

The “TRIP” LED can be tested by initiating a manual circuit breaker trip from the relay. However
the “TRIP” LED will operate during the setting checks (performed later). Therefore no further
testing of the “TRIP” LED is required at this stage.

10.5.2.6 Testing the AC Current Inputs

This test verified that the accuracy of current measurement is within the acceptable tolerances.

Apply current equal to the line current transformer secondary winding rating to each current
transformer input of the corresponding rating in turn, see the following table or external connection
diagram for appropriate terminal numbers, checking its magnitude using a multimeter/test set
readout. The corresponding reading can then be checked in the relays menu.

The current measurement accuracy of the relay is ±2.5%. However an additional allowance must
be made for the accuracy of the test equipment being used.

10.5.2.9 Testing the Binary Outputs

1. Switch off power supply of the equipment, the contact [Alm_Fail] (terminal 421~422) should
close. When equipment operates in normal state, this contact should open.

2. When there is some alarm information, the contact [Alm_Abnor] (terminal 421~423) should
close at the same time.

3. Switch off tripping output circuit, when any protection element operates, contact (402~414),
(427~428) should close, (421~424) should output as hold relay for signal.

10.5.3 Protective Function Testing


The setting checks ensure that the entire application-specific relay, for the particular installation,
has been correctly applied to the relay.

NOTE: The trip circuit should remain isolated during these checks to prevent accidental

operation of the associated circuit breaker.

NOTE: Before testing, it’s necessary to enable all the virtual enabling binary inputs (See

Section 6.2.2 “Settings”).

10.5.3.1 Demonstrate correct protection operation

The above tests have already demonstrated that the protection is within calibration, thus the
purpose of these tests is as follows:

l To conclude that the primary function of the protection can trip according to the correct
application settings.

l To verify correct setting of all related protective elements.

10.5.3.2 Overcurrent Protection Check

This check, performed the stage 1 overcurrent protection function in No.1 setting group,
demonstrates that the relay is operating correctly at the application-specific settings.

1. Enable the stage 1 overcurrent protection.

l Set the logic setting [En_OC1] as “1” in the relay’s “PROT SETTINGS” menu.

l Make sure the virtual enabling binary input [VEBI_OC1] is “1” which can be viewed in the
submenu “VEBI STATE”.

2. De-energize all the binary inputs of this relay.

3. Simulate a normal condition with normal voltage and current.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 115


Chapter 10 Commissioning

4. Simulate a single-phase fault or multi-phase fault (recommended: the current of the fault
phase = 2 × [I_OC1]).

10.5.4 Print Fault Report


In order to acquire the details of protection operation, it is convenient to print the fault report of
protection device. For further details, see Section 6.7.3 “View Reports by Printing”.

10.5.5 On-load Checks


The objectives of the on-load checks are:

l Confirm the external wiring to the current and voltage inputs is correct.

l Measure the magnitude of on-load current and voltage (if applicable).

l Check the polarity of each current transformer.

However, these checks can only be carried out if there are no restrictions preventing the
tenderization of the plant being protected.

Remove all test leads, temporary shorting leads, etc. and replace any external wiring that has
been removed to allow testing.

If it has been necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the protection in order to
perform any of the foregoing tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in
accordance with the relevant external connection or scheme diagram. Confirm current and voltage
transformer wiring.

10.5.6 Final Checks


After the above tests are completed, remove all test or temporary shorting leads, etc. If it has been
necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the protection in order to perform the
wiring verification tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in accordance with
the relevant external connection or scheme diagram.

Ensure that the protection has been restored to service.

If the protection is in a new installation or the circuit breaker has just been maintained, the circuit
breaker maintenance and current counters should be zero. If a test block is installed, remove the
test plug and replace the cover so that the protection is put into service.

Ensure that all event records, fault records, disturbance records and alarms have been cleared
and LED’s has been reset before leaving the protection.

Chapter 11 Maintenance

11.1 Maintenance Schedule

It is recommended that products supplied by NARI-RELAYS receive periodic monitoring after


installation. In view of the critical nature of protective relays and their infrequent operation, it is
desirable to confirm that they are operating correctly at regular intervals.

This relays are self-supervised and so require less maintenance than earlier designs of relay. Most
problems will result in an alarm so that remedial action can be taken. However, some periodic
tests should be done to ensure that the relay is functioning correctly and the external wiring is
intact.

11.2 Regular Testing

The relay is almost completely self-supervised. The circuits which can not be supervised are
binary input, output circuits and human machine interfaces. Therefore regular testing can be
minimized to checking the unsupervised circuits.

11.3 Failure Tracing and Repair

Failures will be detected by automatic supervision or regular testing.

When a failure is detected by supervision, a remote alarm is issued and the failure is indicated on
the front panel with LED indicators and LCD display. It is also recorded in the alarm record.
Failures detected by supervision are traced by checking the “ALM REPORT” screen on the LCD.
See Section 6.3.3 “Display under Abnormal Condition” for the details of the alarm events.

When a failure is detected during regular testing, confirm the following:

l Test circuit connections are correct

l Modules are securely inserted in position

l Correct DC power voltage is applied

l Correct AC inputs are applied

l Test procedures comply with those stated in the manual

11.4 Replace Failed Modules

If the failure is identified to be in the relay module and the user has spare modules, the user can
recover the protection by replacing the failed modules.

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 121


Chapter 11 Maintenance

Repair at the site should be limited to module replacement. Maintenance at the component level is
not recommended.

Check that the replacement module has an identical module name (AC, DC, CPU, SWI, ODI) and
hardware type-form as the removed module. Furthermore, the CPU module replaced should have
the same software version. And the AC and DC module replaced should have the same ratings.

WARNING: Units and modules may only be replaced while the supply is switched off and

only by appropriately trained and qualified personnel. Strictly observe the basic
precautions to guard against electrostatic discharge.

WARNING: When handling a module, take anti-static measures such as wearing an

earthed wrist band and placing modules on an earthed conductive mat. Otherwise, many
of the electronic components could suffer damage. After replacing the CPU module,
check the settings.

DANGER: After replacing modules, be sure to check that the same configuration is set

as before the replacement. If this is not the case, there is a danger of the unintended
operation of switchgear taking place or of protections not functioning correctly. Persons
may also be put in danger.
