1 Introduction
1.1 Application
PCS-978S transformer relay provides fast and selective protection, control and monitoring for two-
winding transformers, three-winding transformers, auto-transformers, as well as shunt reactors.
1
The full transformer protections are configurable by user. Ancillary functions of fault diagnostic,
disturbance records, event records and communication function are integrated in the device.
The PCS-978S is applicable not only to conventional substations, but also to digital substations. It
supports IEC 61850 Editions 1 and 2 and provides GOOSE and SV network interfaces with high
real-time performance. The process level network supports peer-to-peer (P2P) mode and
networking mode, including single network mode and dual network mode. The station level network
could also receive and send MMS messages (such as interlocking signals) or process level
GOOSE messages (such as trip signals).
The function diagrams for protecting an auto-transformer and a reactor are respectively shown

2.1.3 Setting Guidelines
1. [Active_Grp]
The current protection setting group number. Up to 20 group settings are provided in the device,
but only one is active at a time. The settings except protection settings and synchronism check,
are common for all protection groups.
2. [Opt_SysFreq]
It is option of system frequency, and can be set as 50Hz or 60Hz.
3. [PrimaryEquip_Name]
It is designed to configure the name of corresponding primary equipment (transformer, busbar,

line, capacitor, etc.), e.g.: “DodomaLine1”. It will be displayed in the printed result and the
DFR (Disturbance Fault Recording) file.
The maximum permissible length of this setting is 20 characters.
This setting is case sensitive.
All the allowed characters in this setting are listed as below:
“A”|“a”|“B”|“b”|“C”|“c”|“D”|“d”|“E”|“e”|“F”|“f”|“G”|“g”|“H”|“h”|“I”|“i”|“J”|“j”|“K”|“k”|“L”|“l”|“M”
|“m”|“N”|“n”|“O”|“o”|“P”|“p”|“Q”|“q”|“R”|“r”|“S”|“s”|“T”|“t”|“U”|“u”|“V”|“v”|“W”|“w”|“X”|“x”|“
Y”|“y”|“Z”|“z”|“_”|“0”|“1”|“2”|“3”|“4”|“5”|“6”|“7”|“8”|“9”
Please configure this setting according to actual requirements.
4. [Sn]
Transformer or reactor capacity.
5. [HVS.U1n_Plate], [MVS.U1n_Plate], [LVS.U1n_Plate], [U1]
They are the primary rated voltages at x side of transformer or reactor marked on the
nameplate.
The setting principle of rated phase-to-phase voltages of each side is to take the primary rated
voltage marked on the nameplate of transformer as the primary rated voltage of corresponding
side. For an on-load tap changing transformer, the voltage of transformer with tap in middle
2-2 PCS-978S Transformer Relay

2 Global Settings
position is taken as the value of this setting.
For example, if the voltage at 220kV side is 230kV for an on-load tap changing transformer
with tap in its middle position, and then the setting is set as 230kV.
For one side not used in the device, please set the primary rated voltage 2
value of the corresponding side as “0”.
6. [Clk_MVS_WRT_HVS], [Clk_LVS_WRT_HVS]
They are the wiring o′clock of MV/LV side with respect to HV side, is the parameter shown on
transformer nameplate with the range of 0~11, and need not further calculation.
7. [Clk_PhComp]
It is the target o′clock that each side current will be shift to for phase compensation.
For examples:
The vector group of a transformer is Y0/Δ11 and the target o′clock ([Clk_PhComp]) is set to
“11”. Therefore, the setting [Clk_LVS_WRT_HVS] should be set to “11”.
 For HV side, the clock of HV side with reference to target o′clock is 1 (i.e. wiring o′clock
12-target o′clock 11) clock, so the matrix of relative o′clock 1 is adopted to compensate
HV side current. Zero-sequence current elimination has no effect on phase compensation
in the condition.
 For LV side, the clock of LV side with reference to target o′clock is 0 (i.e. wiring o′clock 11-
target o′clock 11), so the matrix of relative o′clock 0 is adopted to compensate LV side
current. Then it is needed to decide whether zero-sequence current is eliminated and
select the corresponding matrix.
If an earthing transformer is connected at LV side out the protection zone of differential

protection, then matrix of relative o′clock 0 without zero-sequence current elimination can be
selected.
If an earthing transformer is connected at LV side in the protection zone of differential

protection, then zero-sequence current must be eliminated and otherwise differential
protection may operate unexpectedly during an external fault. Therefore the matrix of relative
o′clock 0 with zero-sequence current elimination should be selected.

equipped, the prefix “x.” may disappear.
For the setting calculation in relation to power system operating conditions, it shall base on the
usual operating conditions as its calculation reference. Usual operating conditions usually refer to
normal operating conditions or the maintenance case that adjacent line or a component protected
is out of service. For the system whose operating mode changes greatly, the operating conditions
3
which setting calculation refers to should be confirmed by dispatching department according to
specific cases.
For all the calculation equations listed in this instruction manual, the results including current,
voltage and impedance are all expressed in the form of secondary actual value, unless it is
specifically mentioned.
3.1 Basic Parameters Calculation
3.1.1 For Transformer

During the normal operation, the magnitudes of secondary current of each side of transformer are
different due to the mismatch between the CT ratios and the power transformer ratio. The current
value difference between each side shall be eliminated before calculation for current differential
protection by amplitude compensation.
 Calculate the rated primary current at each side
𝑆𝑛
𝐼1𝑏𝐵𝑟𝑚 = ⁄ Equation 3.1-1
√3𝑈1𝑛𝐵𝑟𝑚
Where:
𝐼1𝑏𝐵𝑟𝑚 is the rated primary current of side m.
𝑆𝑛 is the maximum rated capacity (i.e., the setting [Sn]).
𝑈1𝑛𝐵𝑟𝑚 is rated primary voltage of side m (i.e., the settings [HVS.U1n_Plate], [MVS.U1n_Plate]
or [LVS.U1n_Plate]).
 Calculate the rated secondary current at each side
𝐼1𝑏𝐵𝑟𝑚
𝐼2𝑏𝐵𝑟𝑚 = ⁄𝐶𝑇 Equation 3.1-2
𝐵𝑟𝑚
Where:
𝐼2𝑏𝐵𝑟𝑚 is the rated secondary current of side m.

𝐶𝑇𝐵𝑟𝑚 is the CT ratio of side m.
 Limitation of secondary current
For all differential protections, the secondary currents of each side must follow below criterion.
I 2bBr1 I 2bBr2 I
Max( , ,..., 2bBrm )
I 2nBr1 I 2nBr2 I 2nBrm
 128 Equation 3.1-3
I 2bBr1 I 2bBr2 I 2bBrm
Min( , ,..., )
3
When selecting CT, the ratio between maximum value and minimum value
should be considered. It is recommended that the ratio is smaller than 16.
Theoretically, the ratio is preferred to be as small as it can be.
For DPFC biased differential element, the secondary currents of each side must follow
Equation 3.1-4 in addition to Equation 3.1-3. Otherwise, alarm signals [ProtBrd.Fail_Settings]
and [FDBrd.Fail_Settings] are issued and the device will be blocked at the same time unless
DPFC biased differential element is disabled.
I 2bBr1 I 2bBr2 I
Max( , ,..., 2bBrm )  0.4
Equation 3.1-4
I I I
Min( 2bBr1 , 2bBr2 ,..., 2bBrm )  0.1
Where:
I2bBr1, I2bBr2… I2bBrm are rated secondary current of branch 1, 2 … m of transformer.
I2nBr1, I2nBr2…I2nBrm are CT rated secondary current of branch 1, 2 … m of transformer.
When viewing settings and values of conventional current differential

protection in the device, p.u. (per unit value) is provided. The current in
differential protection calculation is not actual secondary value but per unit
value which is got by actual secondary value of each branch of transformer
divided by transformer secondary rated current of each side (i.e., I2bBrm).
3.1.2 For Reactor
In the section, the suffix ”#” (# =1, 2, 3) in some measurements and

calculated quantities refers to the side (& branch) of the reactor, the suffix
“1” means the branch 1 of high-voltage side (head-end) of reactor, “2” means
the low-voltage side (tail-end) of reactor, “3” means the branch 2 of high-

voltage side (head-end) of reactor.
Under normal condition, the magnitudes of secondary current of both ends of reactor are different
due to the mismatch between CT ratios. The current value difference shall be eliminated before
calculation for current differential protection by amplitude compensation.
 Calculate the reference primary current
𝑆𝑛
𝐼1𝑏 = ⁄ Equation 3.1-5
√3𝑈𝑛
Where:
𝑆𝑛 is the rated capacity of reactor (i.e., the setting [Sn] in “System Settings” menu). 3
𝑈𝑛 is rated voltage of reactor. (i.e., the setting [U1n] in “System Settings” menu).
𝐼1𝑏 is the reference primary current of reactor.
 Calculate the rated secondary current at each side
𝐼2𝑏# = 𝐼1𝑏 ⁄𝐶𝑇# Equation 3.1-6
Where:
𝐼2𝑏# is the rated secondary current of reactor. (# =1, 2, 3)
𝐶𝑇# is 𝐶𝑇# ratio. (# =1, 2, 3)

normal rated load, i.e.
[87T. 𝐼_𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑑] = 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 × (𝐾𝑒𝑟 + ∆𝑈 + ∆𝑚)𝑝. 𝑢. Equation 3.2-1
Where:
𝑝. 𝑢. per unit value, is secondary rated current of transformer. (Please refer to section 3.1.1 for
the calculation of each side.)
𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 is reliability coefficient (generally 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 =1.3~1.5).
𝐾𝑒𝑟 is the ratio errors of CT (k=0.03X2 for class 10P; k=0.01X2 for class 5P and TP).
∆𝑈 is the maximum deviation (in percent of rated voltage) due to tap changing within voltage
regulation range.
∆𝑚 is the error caused by the difference between ratios of CT at all side, and 0.05 is
recommended.
Its recommended value: (0.2~0.5)p. u.
The settings, [87T.I_Biased], [87T.I_Inst] and [87T.I_Alm], are all based on

the secondary rated current of the transformer. If a setting value gained from
calculation is together with its unit Ampere, this setting shall be divided by
secondary rated current of this side of transformer, per unit value.
2. [87T.I_Inst]

It is the current setting of instantaneous differential element. Instantaneous differential element

can clear serious internal fault quickly and prevent operation delay caused by CT saturation.
It shall be greater than inrush current of transformer, generally
[87𝑇. 𝐼_𝐼𝑛𝑠𝑡] = 𝐾𝑝. 𝑢. Equation 3.2-2
Where:
𝐾 is a multiple depending on the capacity of transformer and the impedance of power system.
𝐾 will be 3.0~6.0 for the transformer with capacity 40~120MVA and 2.0~5.0 for the transformer
with capacity above 120MVA. It is evident that the larger the transformer capacity or the power 3
system impedance, the smaller the 𝐾.
3. [87T.I_Alm]
It is the current setting of differential circuit abnormality alarm.
It shall be greater than maximum differential current when the tap of on-load tap-changing
transformer is not located in its middle position, or the maximum differential current caused by
other conditions.
The setting [87T.I_Alm] should be set less than the pickup setting
[87T.I_Biased], and normally between the value of maximum differential
current caused by the tap of on-load tap-changing transformer not located
in its middle position and the value of minimum pickup setting.
Its recommended value: 0.8×[87T.I_Biased].
4. [87T.I_Knee1]

6. [87T.Slope1], [87T.Slope2], [87T.Slope3]
They are slope 1, 2, 3 of biased differential element respectively. Their calculation methods
are provided here only for reference.
The calculation of unbalanced current is different with the different type of transformer.
Following equations are given to calculate the maximum unbalanced current Iunb.max
(secondary current) in differential scheme for two-winding and three-winding transformer:

 For two-windings transformer
𝐼𝑢𝑛𝑏.𝑚𝑎𝑥 = (𝐾𝑎𝑝 𝐾𝑐𝑐 𝐾𝑒𝑟 + ∆𝑈 + ∆𝑚) × 𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 Equation 3.2-3
Where:
The definitions about 𝐾𝑒𝑟 , ∆𝑈 and ∆𝑚 have been mentioned above.
𝐾𝑐𝑐 is the “same type coefficient” of CT, and 1.0 is recommended.
𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 is the maximum value of fundamental component of external short-circuit current

(secondary value).
3 𝐾𝑎𝑝 is the coefficient of DC component.
𝐾𝑎𝑝 = 1.0 if CT at both sides are TP class, or 𝐾𝑎𝑝 = 1.5 - 2.0 if CT at both sides are P
class.
 For three-winding transformer
Take external short circuit fault at LV side as example:
𝐼𝑢𝑛𝑏.𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝐾𝑎𝑝 𝐾𝑐𝑐 𝐾𝑒𝑟 𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 + ∆𝑈ℎ 𝐼𝑘.ℎ.𝑚𝑎𝑥 + ∆𝑈𝑚 𝐼𝑘.𝑚.𝑚𝑎𝑥 + ∆𝑚𝐼 × 𝐼𝑘.𝐼.𝑚𝑎𝑥 + ∆𝑚𝐼𝐼 × 𝐼𝑘.𝐼𝐼.𝑚𝑎𝑥
Equation 3.2-4
Where:
The definition about 𝐾𝑎𝑝 𝐾𝑐𝑐 aand 𝐾𝑒𝑟 have been mentioned above.
∆𝑈ℎ and ∆𝑈𝑚 are the maximum deviations (in percent of rated voltage) at HV and MV
sides due to tap changing within voltage regulation range.
𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 is the maximum value of fundamental component of the short-circuit secondary

current flowing through CT at the fault side during an external fault at LV side.
𝐼𝑘.ℎ.𝑚𝑎𝑥 and 𝐼𝑘.𝑚.𝑚𝑎𝑥 are the fundamental components of the secondary currents flowing
through CT at voltage regulating sides during this external fault.
𝐼𝑘.𝐼.𝑚𝑎𝑥 and 𝐼𝑘.𝐼𝐼.𝑚𝑎𝑥 are the fundamental components of the secondary currents flowing
through CT at other sides during this fault.
∆𝑚𝐼 and ∆𝑚𝐼𝐼 are the errors caused by difference between ratios of CT (auxiliary CT
included) at relevant sides.
The pickup current of differential element (secondary current) is:
𝐼𝑜𝑝..𝑚𝑎𝑥 ≥ 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 𝐼𝑢𝑛𝑏.𝑚𝑎𝑥 Equation 3.2-5
Where:
𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 is the reliability coefficient (generally 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 =1.3~1.5).

Thus the maximum restraint coefficient is:
𝐼𝑜𝑝.𝑚𝑎𝑥
𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥 = ⁄𝐼 Equation 3.2-6
𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥
Where:
𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥 is the maximum restraint current (secondary current), which is set according to
different restraint currents during a short-circuit fault at each side.
According to the setting [87T.I_Biased], the first keen point current 𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.01 , the maximum
restraint current 𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥 and the maximum restraint coefficient 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥 , the slope of
operation characteristic curve (𝐾𝑏𝑙 ) will be calculated as following:

𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑠 −
𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠
𝐾𝑏𝑙 = Equation 3.2-7
𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.01
1−
𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠
If 𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 , and then
𝐼𝑜𝑝.𝑚𝑎𝑥 − [87𝑇. 𝐼_𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑑]

𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 − 𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.01
Therefore, when 𝐼𝑟𝑒𝑠.01 = 0.5𝑝. 𝑢., and then the slope of biased differential element is:
𝐼𝑜𝑝.𝑚𝑎𝑥 − [87𝑇. 𝐼_𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑑]

𝐼𝑘.𝑚𝑎𝑥 − 0.5𝑝. 𝑢.
The recommended value is: [87T.Slope1]=0.2, [87T.Slope2]=0.5, [87T.Slope3]=0.75.
7. [87T.K_Hm2_Inrush]

Its recommended value: 0.15.
8. [87T.K_Hm3_Inrush]
It is the restraint coefficient of third harmonics for inrush current detection.
The criterion of distinguishing the 3rd harmonic is added to block current differential protection
based on the facts that inrush involves 3rd harmonics. Generally, it is set in the range of
0.10~0.25.

the protection is enabled or not.
When the rated current of some side of transformer is relatively small (refer
to the related information in Section 3.6 of technical manual), DPFC biased
differential element must not be enabled. Otherwise, a corresponding alarm
message will be issued with the device being blocked.

REF can be equipped with each side of transformer, and they have the same setting principles.
1. [x.64REF.I_Biased]
It is the pickup current setting of REF.
It shall be greater than the maximum unbalance current while transformer operates under
[x. 64REF. 𝐼_𝐵𝑖𝑎𝑠𝑒𝑑] = 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 × (𝐾𝑒𝑟 + ∆𝑚)𝐼𝑛 Equation 3.3-1
Where:
𝐼𝑛 is CT secondary rated current at side x of transformer.
𝐾𝑒𝑟 is CT ratio errors (for 10P class, 𝐾𝑒𝑟 = 0.03×2, and for 5P class and TP class, 𝐾𝑒𝑟 =0.01X2).
∆𝑚 is the error caused by the difference between ratios of CTs, and 0.05 is recommended.
The pickup setting of REF takes the secondary rated current of CT (i.e. In, 1A or 5A) as its unit,
whose setting value is calculated with the reference to the side having the minimum ratio
among all CTs for REF (the ratio of the maximum primary current to the minimum primary

current among each side CT is within 4 times). If it is the actual current value to the reference
side in actual setting calculation, then this actual value will be divided by the secondary rated
current of CT (i.e. In, 1A or 5A) to derive the setting value.
In actual projects, the pickup current setting can be set according to the value greater than the
measured unbalance current of zero-sequence differential circuit under the maximum load
current.
The setting should not be less than 0.1In and the recommended value is 0.2In~0.5In.
3 The unit (i.e. In) of the setting calculation ([x.64REF.I_Biased]) is the

secondary rated current of CT, and the minimum corrected coefficient of the
side is taken as the reference side (the ratio of the maximum primary current
to the minimum primary current among each side CT is within 4 times). If a
setting value got from calculation is together with its unit Ampere, this setting
value shall be divided by the secondary rated current of CT to get per unit
value which is the configuration value input to the device.
2. [x.64REF.I_Alm]
It is the current setting of REF abnormality alarm. This setting should be greater than maximum
unbalance current during normal operation.
Its recommended value is 0.1~0.3In, or [x.64REF.I_Biased]×0.8.
3. [x.64REF.I_Knee]
It is the knee point setting of REF
Its recommended value is 0.5In.
4. [x.64REF.Slope]
It is the percentage restraint coefficient of REF.
The setting is percent restraint coefficient of winding differential protection, which shall be
greater than unbalance current caused by zero-sequence current flowing through the
transformer during an external fault.
The setting calculation equation is given below.
[x. 64REF. Slope] = 𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 × (𝐾𝑎𝑝 × 𝐾𝑐𝑐 × 𝐾𝑒𝑟 + ∆𝑚) Equation 3.3-2
Where:
𝐾𝑟𝑒𝑙 is reliability coefficient.
𝐾𝑎𝑝 = 1.0 if CT at both sides are TP class, or 𝐾𝑎𝑝 =1.5~2.0 if CT at both sides are P class.

𝐾𝑒𝑟 is the ratio errors of CT.
∆𝑚 is the error caused by the difference between ratios of CTs.
Generally, in practical setting calculation for projects, [x.64REF.Slope] can be taken as 0.30.7,
and its recommended value is 0.5.
5. [x.64REF.ROA]
It is the operation angle setting of REF. The larger the value is, the wider the operation range
is. The smaller the value is, the narrower the operation range is.
When the CT ratio difference of each side is relatively large and the used CTs are Class P, the
recommended value of the setting is 45°~ 60°to ensure the reliability. 3
When the CT ratio difference of each side is relatively small and the used CTs are Class TP,
the recommended value of the setting is 60°~ 90°to ensure the sensitivity.
The recommended value according to project experiences: 60°.
6. [x.64REF.I_NP_OnLoad]
This is the current setting of neutral-point on-load criterion.
The setting should be greater than the maximum residual current due to phase-to-phase fault,
three-phase fault and three-phase grounding fault. If there is no actual calculated or measured
data, it usually takes the half of [x.64REF.I_Biased] as the setting value. The recommended
range: 0.1In~0.5In. (Note: the unit of setting) [x.64REF.En_NPCurr] is “A”, and the unit of
setting [x.64REF.I_Biased] is “In”, so unit conversion is required.)
7. [x.64REF.t_Op]
It is the time delay setting for REF.
Its recommended value is 0 if restricted earth fault protection is required to instantaneous

tripping. Otherwise, it can be set as 50~100ms.
8. [x.64REF.En]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable REF of the corresponding side.
9. [x.64REF.En_NPCurr]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable neutral current criterion.
It is recommended to be set as “Enabled”.
10. [x.64REF.En_CTS_Blk]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable block REF during CT circuit failure.
11. [x.64REF.En_Dir_Blk]
It is the logic setting for enabling or disabling the function of direction criterion blocking REF. It
is recommended to be enabled when the CT transient characteristics is not well. If enabled,

the operation time of REF will have a relay of about 10~20ms.
When REF is enabled, if the maximum CT ratio to the minimum CT ratio

related to the protection is greater than 128, this will be considered
abnormal and wrong setting alarm will be issued.

Considering the maximum short-circuit secondary current is 15A and the error due to the actual
CT characteristic, the pickup current value can be set as “0.3In”.
2. [x.64REF.I_Alm]
This setting value should be below the setting [x.64REF.I_Biased] value 0.3In, and be
greater than the maximum unbalance current, here, it considers to take 0.2In as the setting
value.

secondary current of CT is 1A, so this setting value can be set as “0.15A”.
7. [x.64REF.t_Op]

In actual projects, the measured unbalance current of the winding differential circuit under
the maximum load current can be referred to.
The setting should not be less than 0.1In, and the recommended value for winding
differential protection is 0.2In~0.5In.
2) For stub differential protection, the recommended value is 0.5In~1In. For the primary value
of the setting, please refer to the setting calculation result of the corresponding busbar
protection.
The unit (i.e. In) of the setting calculation ([87W.I_Biased]) is the secondary
rated current of CT, and the minimum corrected coefficient of the side is
taken as the reference side (the ratio of the maximum primary current to the
minimum primary current among each side CT is within 4 times). If a setting
value got from calculation is together with its unit Ampere, this setting value
shall be divided by the secondary rated current of CT to get per unit value

It is used to set the phase current setting of detecting breaker failure protection.
The measured phase current is used to detect the circuit breaker failure. The setting should
can detect the fault with small fault current. It could be chosen in accordance with the most
sensitive protection function that initiate the breaker failure protection.
2. [x.50BF.3I0_Set]
It is used to set the zero-sequence current setting of detecting breaker failure protection.
3
In the high impedance grounded systems, the residual current is normally much smaller than
the short-circuit currents for the single-phase earth fault. In order to reliably detect the circuit
breaker failure under the single-phase earth fault, it is necessary to add the zero-sequence
current detection by the setting [x.50BF.En_3I0_1P] (set as "Enabled"). At this time, the phase
current setting [x.50BF.I_Set] could be set more sensitive.
Taking into account that the faulty current is too small for generator or transformer fault, the
sensitivity of phase current element may not meet the requirements, zero-sequence current
criterion and negative-sequence current criterion are provided in addition to the phase
overcurrent element for breaker failure protection initiated by input signal [x.50BF.ExTrp3P]
from external tripping. They can be enabled or disabled by the settings [x.50BF.En_3I0_3P]
and [x.50BF.En_I2_3P] respectively.
The setting [x.50BF.3I0_Set] shall be greater than maximum zero-sequence unbalance current
(3I0) under normal operation condition.
3. [x.50BF.I2_Set]
It is used to set the negative-sequence current setting of detecting breaker failure protection.
The setting [x.50BF.I2_Set] shall be greater than maximum negative-sequence unbalance

current (I2) under normal operation condition.
Its recommended setting principle can refer to the setting [x.50BF.3I0_Set].
4. [x.50BF.t_ReTrp]
It is used to set the re-trip time delay of breaker failure protection.
The setting defines the time delay of re-tripping for breaker failure protection, generally set as
5ms~50ms.
Its recommended value is 50ms.
5. [x.50BF.t1_Op]
It is used to set the time delay for the first stage of breaker failure protection.
Breaker failure protection will send three-phase tripping command to trip local circuit breaker
when the time delay of [x.50BF.t1_Op] is expired. The setting [x.50BF.t1_Op] is set as short as

possible on the premise that the selectivity of breaker failure protection is warrantable.
The recommended setting principle is as follows.
[x.50BF.t1_Op]=t0+tB+Δt
Where:
t0 is circuit breaker operation time, generally taken as 0.03~0.06s.
tB is the drop off time of the operation element, generally taken as 0.02~0.04s.
Δt is safty margin time, generally taken as 0.03s.
3 Normally, it is used to trip local circuit breaker again before the second stage of breaker failure
protection operating in case that the local circuit breaker could open to prevent to trip the
adjacent circuit breakers.
6. [x.50BF.t2_Op]
It is used to set the time delay for the second stage of breaker failure protection.
Breaker failure protection will send three-phase tripping command to trip adjacent circuit
breakers when the time delay of [x.50BF.t2_Op] is expired. The setting [x.50BF.t2_Op] is set
as short as possible on the premise that the selectivity of breaker failure protection is
warrantable and undesired operation must be avoided. Besides, the setting should be greater
than the setting [x.50BF.t1_Op] with safety margin.
The recommended setting principle is as follows.
[x.50BF.t2_Op]=t0+tB+Δt
Where:
t0 is circuit breaker operation time, generally taken as 0.03~0.06s.
tB is the drop off time of the operation element, generally taken as 0.02~0.04s.
Δt is safty time, generally taken as 0.1s.
The stage of breaker failure protection with time delay of [x.50BF.t1_Op] will
only trip local circuit breaker by three phase, and the stage with time delay
of [x.50BF.t2_Op] will trip all adjacent circuit breakers.
7. [x.50BF.En]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable breaker failure protection.
8. [x.50BF.En_ReTrp]

It is used to enable/disable re-trip function of breaker failure protection.
When the setting is set as "Enabled", the instantaneous re-tripping function is in service.
After receiving tripping signal from the device and the corresponding current criterion or CB
position criterion is met, then the re-trip command will be issued to trip local circuit breaker.
9. [x.50BF.En_t1]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable the first time delay function of BFP.
10. [x.50BF.En_t2]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable the second time delay function of BFP.
3
11. [x.50BF.En_3I0_1P]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable zero-sequence current criterion of BFP
via external single-phase initiating signal "x.50BF.ExTrpA", "x.50BF.ExTrpB" or
"x.50BF.ExTrpC".
Its setting principle can refer to the one of setting [x.50BF.3I0_Set].
12. [x.50BF.En_Ip]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable phase overcurrent element of breaker
failure protection via external three-phases initiating signal "x.50BF.ExTrp3P".
When the setting is set as "Enabled", the phase current criterion via external three-phases
initiating signal "x.50BF.ExTrp3P" is valid.
13. [x.50BF.En_3I0_3P]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable zero-sequence current criterion of BFP
via external three-phase initiating signal "x.50BF.ExTrp3P".
14. [x.50BF.En_I2_3P]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable negative-sequence current criterion of

BFP via external three-phase initiating signal “x.50BF.ExTrp3P”.
15. [x.50BF.En_CB_Ctrl]
It is a logic setting, which is used to enable or disable breaker failure protection initiated by CB
open position via external three-phase initiating signal “x.50BF.ExTrp3P”.
For some special protection (for example, mechanical protection or voltage protection), the
fault current maybe is too small to meet the current criterion when they operate. In order to
make breaker failure protection can also operate under the above situation, CB open position
is used instead of the current criterion. The precondition is that binary input signal
[x.50BF.ExTrp_WOI] should be assigned by external trip signal.

16. [x.50BF.En_Alm_Init]
It is used to enable/disable abnormality check of breaker failure initiating signal.
It is used to enable/disable the supervision of binary input initiating signal of breaker failure
protection. If the setting is set as "Enabled", and the initiating status of the binary input signal
maintains more than 10s, then the binary input initiating signal will be considered as invalid
and an alarm "x.50BF.Alm_Int" will be issued. If it is set as "Disabled", then the binary input
signal will not be supervised.

3 3.15.3 Setting Guidelines

Undervoltage protection can be provided with up to two stages, each stage has separated setting,
1. [x.27Pi.Opt_1P/3P]
It is used to select 1-out-of-3 mode or 3-out-of-3 mode for stage i of undervoltage protection.
3P: 3-out-of-3 mode
1P: 1-out-of-3 mode
When this setting is set as “1P”, undervoltage protection will operate if any phase voltage or
phase-to-phase voltage is under voltage. When this setting is set as “3P”, undervoltage
protection will operate only if three-phase voltages or three phase-to-phase voltages are under
voltage.
2. [x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp]
It is used to select phase-to-phase voltage or phase voltage as voltage criterion for stage i of
undervoltage protection.
Up: phase voltage
3. [x.27Pi.Opt_LogicMode]
The breaker closed position check mode is configured via the setting [x.27P.Opt_LogicMode],
it includes:
[x.27P.Opt_LogicMode]=None: no-check;
[x.27P.Opt_LogicMode]=Curr: check the current;
[x.27P.Opt_LogicMode]=CBPos: check the breaker position;
[x.27P.Opt_LogicMode]=CurrAndCBPos: check the current and the breaker position;
[x.27P.Opt_LogicMode]=CurrOrCBPos: check the current or the breaker position.
The checked breaker position refers to the closed position of the breaker.

Select the check mode according to the actual situation on site. When the load current is
relatively fixed and is larger than 0.04In, the current criterion is recommended, such as the
capacitor and reactor load. Otherwise, the breaker position criterion is recommended.
When the breaker position can be acquired, and the load current is also larger than 0.04In,
comprehensive criterion can also be used.
For the case the incoming line breaker have been tripped and the busbar loses voltage, low-
voltage protection is still desired to operate at this time, the breaker position criterion needs to
be selected.
4. [x.27Pi.U_Set]
It is voltage setting for stage i of undervoltage protection.

3
This setting should be set according to the actual stability level of power system, but it should
ensure sensitive enough to the fault at the end of the line and not be greater than the minimum
operation voltage under normal conditions. This setting should also be set according to the
setting [x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp]. If the setting [x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp] is set as "Upp", then phase-
to-phase voltage will be used for calculation, [x.27Pi.U_Set] should be set as phase-to-phase
voltage. If the setting [x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp] is set as "Up", then phase voltage will be used for
calculation, [x.27Pi.U_Set] should be set as phase voltage.
Application example
If the operating criterion adopts phase-to-phase voltage, Un=110V, 0.7 times Un is assigned
for undervoltage protection. The setting will be given as below:
[x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp]=Upp
[x.27Pi.U_Set]=77V
If the operating criterion adopts phase-to-ground voltage, Un=63.5V, 0.7 times Un is assigned
for undervoltage protection. The setting will be given as below:
[x.27Pi.Opt_Up/Upp]=Up
[x.27Pi.U_Set]=44.45V
5. [x.27Pi.K_DropOut]
It is the drop-out coefficient of stage i of phase undervoltage protection.
6. [x.27Pi.t_Op]
It is time delay for stage i of undervoltage protection.
It shall be set according to voltage control strategy.

This setting is valid when definite-time drop-out characteristic is selected. When

U>[x.27Pi.K_Drop-out]*Up, the protection drops out with a time delay of tdr (i.e. the value of the

2. [B**.DCAI.Min_Transducer**], [B**.DCAI.Max_Transducer**]
The lower and the upper limits of the DC analogue input range corresponding to the original
physical quantity.
A DC measuring transducer input typically converts a value which represents a physical

quantity such as temperature or pressure. Therefore, a characteristic curve that assigns the
physical quantity to the DC analogue value is necessary. The following figure shows an
example.

Temperature (⁰C)
Tmax
P
Tmin Tp
ITransd (mA)
ip 20
O
Figure 5.2-1 Characteristic curve of a DC measuring transducer input
In this example, the setting of the range for the scaled value goes from a usable range of 0mA to
+20mA. The measured value 0mA means a temperature of Tmin which is defined by the setting
[B**.DCAI.Min_Transducer**] and the measured value 20mA signifies a temperature of Tmax which 5
is defined by the setting [B**.DCAI.Max_Transducer**]. Thus, for the actual point P, the measured
transducer current ip can be converted into a value of temperature.

1. [IP_LAN*] (*=1, 2, 3, 4)
It is designed to configure the IP address of No.* Ethernet port of the CPU module.
If the setting [En_LAN*] is configured as “Disabled”, this setting will be unnecessary to be

configured.
2. [Mask_LAN*] (*=1, 2, 3, 4)
It is designed to configure the subnet mask of No.* Ethernet port of the CPU module.

If the setting [En_LAN*] is configured as “Disabled”, this setting will be unnecessary to be

configured.
3. [En_LAN*] (*=1, 2, 3, 4)
It is designed to enable/disable No.* Ethernet port of the CPU module.
If No.* Ethernet port of the CPU module is required to be used, please configure this setting
as “Enabled”. Otherwise, please configure this setting as “Disabled”.
4. [B01.Opt_NetMode]
It is designed to configure the networking method of the CPU module located in No.1 slot.
4 setting value options are available as shown in the following table. Please configure this
setting according to actual requirements.
Table 7.1-1 Setting value options of [B01.Opt_NetMode]
If this option is selected, all the No.1 ~ No.4 Ethernet ports of the CPU module
1 Normal adopt “Normal” mode.
In the “Normal” mode, there is no data redundancy mechanism.
If this option is selected:

7
No.1 and No.2 Ethernet ports of the CPU module adopt “Normal” mode.
No.3 and No.4 Ethernet ports of the CPU module adopt “HSR” (IEC 62439-3 High-
availability Seamless Redundancy) mode to realize data redundancy.
2 1-2:Normal, 3-4:HSR In the “HSR” mode, the principle of parallel operation to a single ring is applied to
realize data redundancy. For each message sent, the node sends two frames, one
through each port. Both the 2 frames circulate in opposite directions over the ring.
Every node forwards the frames it receives from one port to another to reach the
next node. When the originating sender node receives the frame it sent, the sender
node discards the frame to avoid loops.
3 1-2:Normal, 3-4:PRP
No.3 and No.4 Ethernet ports of the CPU module adopt “PRP” (IEC 62439-3
Parallel Redundancy Protocol) mode to realize data redundancy.


In the “PRP” mode, the data redundancy is realized in this way: the communication
is performed in parallel, i.e.: the same data package is transmitted on both
channels simultaneously. The received package identity from one channel is
compared with data package identity from the other channel. If they are the same,
the last package will be discarded.
No.3 and No.4 Ethernet ports of the CPU module adopt “RSTP” (Rapid Spanning
4 1-2:Normal, 3-4:RSTP Tree Protocol) mode.
In the “RSTP” mode, the data redundancy is realized in this way: RSTP serves for
the reorganization of the network structure in case of network path error. In other
words, RSTP reroutes the data to another path after the failure of a network path.
5. [B02.Grp01.Opt_NetMode]
It is designed to configure the network method of the 1st group interface of the NET-DSP
module NR6113 located in slot No.2.

the networking method of the CPU module located in No.1 slot.
6. [B02.Grp02.Opt_NetMode]
It is designed to configure the network method of the 2nd group interface of the NET-DSP
7 module NR6113 located in slot No.2.
Please configure this setting according to actual requirements, and it should be consistent with
the networking method of the CPU module located in No.1 slot.
7. [Baud_Printer]
It is designed to configure the baud rate of the print port.
Value of this setting must be the same as the baud rate of the printer that is connected to this
device.
8. [En_AutoPrint]
It is designed to enable/disable automatic printing function.
If automatic printing function is required when printing events (e.g.: disturbance records,
supervision events, IO events, etc.) are generated, please configured this setting as “Enabled”.
9. [Protocol_RS485-*] (*=1, 2)
It is designed to configure the communication protocol of No.* RS-485 serial port at the rear

side of this device.
2 setting value options are available:
IEC103: IEC60870-5-103 protocol
Modbus: Modbus protocol
Value of this setting must be the same as corresponding setting value of the communication
client (e.g.: local SCADA system, etc.).
10. [Baud_RS485-*] (*=1, 2)
It is designed to configure the communication baud rate of No.* RS-485 serial port at the rear
11. [Addr_RS485-*] (*=1, 2)
It is designed to configure the communication address of No.* RS-485 serial port at the rear
12. [Gateway]
It is designed to configure the IP address of the gateway. If there is no gateway, please

configure this setting as “0.0.0.0”.

7
13. [Cfg_NetPorts_Bond]
It is designed to configure the Ethernet ports that are used as hot standby each other.
The setting is used to configure dual-networks switching, and it means that no dual-networks
switching is created when the setting is set as “0”. The device support a bond between any
two Ethernet ports, and the bond among three or above Ethernet ports is impermissible.
The devices communicate with SAS by station level network. In order to ensure reliable
communication, dual networks (i.e., network 1 and network 2) are adopted. Another special
communication mode based on dual networks is that Ethernet port 1 and Ethernet port 2 of
the device own the same IP address and MAC address, and network 1 and network 2 are used
as hot standby each other. When both network 1 and network 2 are normal, any of them is
used to communicate between the device and SAS. The device will automatically switch to the
other healthy network when one network is abnormal, which will not affect normal
communication.
Taking a CPU module with four Ethernet ports as an example, each bit is corresponding with
an Ethernet port, i.e., Bit0, Bit1, Bit2 and Bit3 are corresponding with Ethernet port 1, Ethernet

port 2, Ethernet port 3 and Ethernet port 4 respectively. If a bond between Ethernet port 1 and
Ethernet 2 is created, the setting [Cfg_NetPorts_Bond] is set as “3”. The specific setting is
shown in the following figure.

Figure 7.1-1 Schematic diagram of port bonding
The switching logic of Active-Standby mode is:
Take the device's Ethernet ports 1 & 2 for example and assume that Port 1 and Port 2 are
bonded, and Port 1 is connected to NET 1 while Port 2 is connected to NET 2.
 After the device is powered on, only Port 1 is activated when both NET 1 and NET 2 are
normal.
 If NET 1 is abnormal, Port 2 will be activated if NET 2 is normal.

7
 If NET1 is abnormal, Port 2 cannot be activated if NET 2 is also abnormal. The device will
keep trying on Port 1.
 If Port 2 is working, the device will maintain this state even if NET 1 has been restored to
normal. It will be switched to Port 1 only if NET 2 is abnormal.
14. [IP_SyslogServer**] (**=01, 02, 03, 04)
“Syslog” is a communication protocol for message logging, it is used for security auditing in
this device.
This setting is designed to configure the IP address of syslog server **, and the device can
upload audit log to the syslog server. The setting is available only when cyber security is
configured in the device.
15. [En_IP_Whitelist]
It is designed to enable/disable the whitelist function of this device.

A whitelist is a list of IP addresses that are granted access to a certain system or protocol.
If all IP addresses are forbidden to connect to this device (except those included in the whitelist),
please configure this setting as “Enabled”.
If all IP addresses are permitted to be connected to this device, please configure this setting
as “Disabled”.
16. [IP**_Whitelist] (**=01, 02...16)
It is designed to configure No.** IP address of the whitelist.
If the setting [En_IP_Whitelist] is configured as “Disabled”, this setting will be unnecessary to

be configured.

system, etc.) via the device's Ethernet port using IEC 61850, if it is smaller than this setting, it
will be processed as “0”.
If the measurement values sent to the communication client are relatively big, please set this
setting to a big value, so as to eliminate influence of zero drift.
If the measurement values sent to the communication client are relatively small, please set
this setting to a small value, so as to avoid too many measurement values being processed as
“0” mistakenly.

4. [En_Send_MMS_Qual_Chg]
If IEC 61850 MMS (Manufacturing Message Specification) quality change report function is
required, please configure this setting as “Enabled”.

5. [Opt_DualNetMode_MMS]
It is designed to select the MMS network communication mode with the IEC 61850
communication client (e.g.: local SCADA system, etc.) via network A and B of this device.
Table 7.2-1 Setting value options of [Opt_DualNetMode_MMS]
Network mode with IEC 61850 protocol. In this mode, the instances of Report
Control Block (RCB) cannot be shared, so different clients should use different
1 IEC61850
report instances to send reports. The “IEC61850” mode is preferred in most
overseas projects.
2 GB32890 Network mode with GB32890 standard. In this mode, for different clients meeting


the redundancy conditions of A and B networks, if one client enables an RCB
instance, the device will only send a report to the enabled client. When the enabled
client is interrupted, another redundant client will cancel and re-enable the RCB
instance, and the device will send a report to the re-enabled redundant client. The
“GB32890” mode is a special mode widely used in China, which needs to be used
with clients supporting.
