QYPE 220 POLE SLIPPING RELAY ADVANCE INFORMA‘ R-5288P 2T0 RELAY APPLICATION The pole slipping relay type ZT0 has been designed to protect synchronous generators against the possibility of the machine running in the unstable region of the power angle curve which would result in power oscilletions and pole slip. The relay consists basically of one airectional relay and one blinder relay operating in conjunction with a 40-80ms static timer, Intended primarily for installation hetween the generator and associated transformer (proforably on the generator terminals). Sauce Agen ATaRCAL Cowek 7 Senne cons, Leas oF fae sur Rs = Kika Ky ches A CAGIG relay serves as an overcurrent starter and thia is set at between 50 and 200% of nominal current. Based on 54 0.9.'s, Below this current no operation ean occur. Both characteristics 'look' inte the solrce and consequently ignore all conditions of load other than those which produce @ reversal of power flow such aa would occur with a condition of pole slip or power swing exceeding 90°, The timer is incorporated so that discrimination can be made between a power owing ond a pole slip condition. A trip condition ean only occur if the timer has timed out before the fault oven into the blinder operate region. (See locus of pole slip for typical operation).

The vector V+ 2! produces the polarising quantity for the phase comparater as shown in, igure 14, while the veetor quantity IR-1% is fed across the © o halves © the input to the comparator. PHASE COMPARATORS The principle of 2 comparator circuit is that the instantaneously larger of tve currents reduces the slope resistance of the diodes through which it flows, thereby providing a path of least resistance for the smaller current. The idealised diode characteristic shown in Pigure 15 clarifies this, Below the ‘toe! voltage the diede has infinite resistance, and above the ‘toe! voltage it has ero resistance, Tn this context tha diodes a may be regarded as switches vhich are eicher opened or closed by the larger current. To consider the operation ef the 2T0 relay phase comparators, assume a fault condition on the directiona: characteristic A or on the reverse reach blindes characteristi, B, Doth shown in Figure 1. on characteristic A the angle oc (between vectors 4 -IX) = 90°, as shown in Figure 4, On characteristic B the angle of (setu and IR-IX) =-90° also, as show aad The magnitude of these vectors does not greatly affect the igure 3 operation of the compars nce its action is controlied by phase and not amplitude, The polarising voltage V snown in Figure the current i, to flow in the ci P Figure 16, ‘he polarising vol im Figure 1h, also causes the circuit of Figure 16, the voltages 1 in Pigures 13 and th, both < the curr te flow as show: al halves at the 366. 10 Figure 16 shows i, and i,, as heving the sane magnitude, although this is not necessary for the operation of the circuit, Throughout period ‘a! current i, d# greater than i, and both are in positive direction by definition, Current 1, biases the tvo diodes shown and biases-off the two diodes shown vith open switches in series, The tvo currents iq Fecombine at the output resistance centre-tap and there is no resultant output voltage generated by 1. he flow path of i, ts determined, that ia, 4, flows through the output re. tor and produces an output voltage proportional to i, The forward currents in the two conducting diodes are i, and i), The rest of Figur 16 shows circuit conditions during periods 'b', ‘ct, 'd', tgt and tht. ‘he comparator output voltages, shown shaded in Pigures 6(a), 9(#) and 12(a), depict the three conditions = 90°, & 590°, and C < 90°* respectively. § AND OUTPUT CTRCUZ age waveforms from the nich are desi shout 7) cedback.

D.C, POWER SUPPLY Contacts OC. are operated hy the starter unit in the system overcurrent protection relay, as shown in Figure 17. These contacts connect the 220V d.c, station battery to the relay external power supply unit which provides a regulated 22,5V d.c. supply for the ZTO relay. TIMER CIRCUIT AND TRIPPING SEQUENCE When a pole slip coudition exists the impedance vector traces a locus on the X/R diagram as shown in Figure 1, When the impedance goee to the left of the direc characteristic A, auxiliary element 4 operates, Refer now to Figure 17. ets 4-1 eloso and allow c& The time calibrated between Lome it times-ont before the impedance goes to of the reverse » sontacts T-1, T-2 e closed by operation of euxiliary element T, the impedance goes to the left 12 Contacts B-2 and T-1 in series initiate a trip via relay terminals 3 and 4, If, during pole slip, the impedance passes througlt characteristics A and B and reaches the left side of characteristic B before the timer has operated, auxiliary element B operates, This opens normally closed contact B-1 to remove the dc. supply to the timer and inhibit its further operation, This condition prohibits alarm ond trip initiation, Similarly, if the impedance never goes to the left of characteristic B, auxiliary element B will not operate and no alarm and trip initiation takes place, In the event of a fault vhich produces an instantenous impedance to the left of the reverse reach 'blinder! tis B anxiliary elements A and B operate instentaneously, Contact B-1 opens to remove the character cuit d.c. supply and inhibit elerm and trip conditions, To summarise, the © 2 2TO relay will only operate under pol slip conditions which satisfy the Following eriveria: a) There te 2 ent flowing operate the overct starter and es duc, supply voltage. bp) aux ary element A operates. c) the mpedance locu esses be characteristics A end B ine timer settin, ¢@) Auxiliar element 3 operates afcer operate SRCTION & INSTALLATION hae BIVING Remove the relay from its packing and inspect for physical damage.

SECTION 26 & REPAIRS Most components and sub-assemblies of the type 270 relay can be replaced on-site. All components and sub-ascemblies used are subjected to rigerous tests, and normally only those supplied from our factory should be used as replacements, ‘These are identified as follows: (a) Printed citcuit board (p.c.b.) reference. (p) Circuit diagram reference and letter of issue. (c) Circuit component reference (R1, Cl ete.). Items ubich should not be replaced on-site are those which require subsequent re-calitration and/or specialised test equipment. The relevant Pperagraph in Section 9 gives detailed calibration instructions. if doubts exist regarding relay equipment should be completed re-calibrated and Fe-commissioned.

After replacement of faulty components, reseal the soldered joints vith a gloss finish polyurethane varnish such as 'Ronseal! or 'PUI2,! 5. The failure of some components may cause the over-stressing of other components, Where this is likely, check all components in the adjacent circuitry. If pre-set potentiometer settings are disturbed, the spindles should be re-sealed to the collar with shellac. When an auxiliary elemant or its associated poten- tiometer is replaced, the contact settings and the square vave pick-up setting must be checked before re-commissioning. FACTORY REPAIRS Because of inadequace site faci. ities and the need for special equipment, some components must be replaced at the factory. This is particularly important for the front plate potent: meters, RY9-t(ma), RVIO-@,, RVI1-8, RVIZ-K1 and RVI xTy_ which must be completely re-calitrated, Inductor L1, which has to be adjusted after, ass bly should also be factory replaced. 28 9,0 CALIBRATION The equipment listed in Section 5, Paragraph 5.1 and the circuit diagram in Fig. 18 is required, Inciude the 4-6 ohm, 10 watt resistor in the current path where required, Por calibration the relay mist be connected into a special open case availabie trom GEC Measurements, Plates 1 to 4 will help in locating potentioncte 9.1 MECHANICAL SETTINGS 9.141 O/C CAGI9 Auxiliary element - Overcurrent starter Contacts = 2 normaly open Setting Instructions = 396P02,18 - 17 Armature Gap = Closed 0.045" (1.8 Acunture Gap = Open 0,075" (3.04 Contact Gap = 0,040"-0,045" (1.6 +8 Follow Through = 0,0257-0,030"(1 0 te Pressure to lift fixed contact off support Bett Pressure to make contacts close 15-01 coil ~ PBO033 026 9.1.2 Timer Auxiliary element (7) Contacts - 3 normally ove: Fp002 2 Setting Instructions = 396F02,18 - A416 Armature Gap = 0,060" (2.4 Contact Cap = 0.070"-0,080"(2.
