1.1 Application
The PCS-9655 is a high speed transfer device of power supply for power plant. It can ensure the
safe operation of the generator unit to meet the continuity and reliability requirement of power
supply for power plant. This device is suited to be wall surface mounted indoors or outdoors or
flush mounted into a control panel.
Main Standby
Power Supply Power Supply
CB3
PCS-9655
CB1 CB2
Busbar
In normal operation situation, the busbar is provided the power supply through the main power
supply branch, and the standby power supply is ready for switching. If the circuit breaker “CB3” is
closed, the standby power supply is in hot standby state; and if the circuit breaker “CB3” is opened,
the standby power supply is in cold standby state.
If the main power supply has fault, the PCS-9655 will trip the circuit breaker “CB1”, and the voltage
of the busbar is lost. Due to the mechanical inertia of the motor load of the busbar, the composite
feedback voltage of the busbar is decaying gradually. In this procedure, if the standby power
supply is put into service at improper moment, the voltage difference between the busbar residual
voltage and the voltage of the standby power supply will have a greater impact on other
equipments in the power plant, even make the equipment damaged. Then the switching operation
will be failed, and the busbar voltage is lost absolutely.
The PCS-9655 high speed transfer device can select the optimal moment for switching the
standby power supply into service, so it can ensure the safety and reliability of the switching
operation.

All the switching functions and their descriptions are listed in following table.
If the standby power supply is in hot standby state, the switching operation is processed between
the circuit breaker “CB1” of the main power supply branch and the circuit breaker “CB2” of the
standby power supply branch; and if the standby power supply is in cold standby state, the
switching operation is processed between the circuit breaker “CB1” of the main power supply
branch and the circuit breakers “CB2” and “CB3” of the standby power supply branch.
The normal manual switching operation can be started locally through the relevant menu of this
device, or be started remotely through the signal from the ECS/DCS system.
The following table shows the relationship between the switching mode and the relevant setting
configuration and relevant binary inputs state.

When the binary input [EBI_Rmt_Man_Init_TS] is de-energized, the normal manual switching only
can switch the power supply locally through the menu “MAN_INIT_TS” of this device. The local
switching operation steps are described detailedly in Section 6.8.4. The switching mode is
selected through the setting [Opt_Loc_Man_Init_TS] in this situation.
When the binary input [EBI_Rmt_Man_Init_TS] is energized, the normal manual switching can
switch the power supply remotely through binary input [BI_Man_Init_TS] which can lead the
control signal from the ECS/DCS system into this device. There are two kinds of switching modes
in such a situation: when the binary input [BI_Opt_Rmt_Man_Init_TS] is energized, the switching
mode can be selected as series switching mode or simultaneous switching mode through the
setting [Opt_Rmt0_Man_Init_TS]; and when the binary input [BI_Opt_Rmt_Man_Init_TS] is
de-energized, the switching mode can be selected as automatic parallel switching mode or
semi-automatic parallel switching mode through the setting [Opt_Rmt1_Man_Init_TS].
This mode is started manually, and when the parallel switching conditions are satisfied, this device
will close the circuit breaker of the standby power supply branch (the main power supply branch);
and then this device will trip the circuit breaker of the main power supply branch (the standby
power supply branch) after the period of the time setting [t_Trp_ParTS] on the premise that the
circuit breaker of the standby power supply branch (the main power supply branch) is closed
successfully.
1. |UB-UD| ≤ [V_Diff_ParTS]
[V_Diff_ParTS] is the voltage difference setting for the parallel switching mode.
2. |fB-fD| ≤ [f_Diff_ParTS]
[f_Diff_ParTS] is the frequency difference setting for the parallel switching mode.
3. |ΦB-ΦD| ≤ [phi_Diff_ParTS]
[phi_Diff_ParTS] is the phase angle difference setting for the parallel switching mode.
If the switching operation is form main power supply to standby power supply, the target power
supply is the standby power supply; if the switching operation is form standby power supply to
main power supply, the target power supply is the main power supply.
If the parallel switching conditions are not satisfied after the switching operation is started, this
device will block the high speed transfer function and wait for being reverted.
This mode is started manually, and when the parallel switching conditions are satisfied (see
Section 3.1.1.1), this device will close the circuit breaker of the standby power supply branch (the
main power supply branch); and then the circuit breaker of the main power supply branch (the
standby power supply branch) is tripped manually. If the circuit breaker of the standby power
supply branch (the main power supply branch) is not tripped successfully in 25 seconds, this
device will be blocked and issue an alarm signal.
This mode is started manually, and then this device will trip the circuit breaker of the main power
supply branch (the standby power supply branch). After the circuit breaker of the main power
supply branch (the standby power supply branch) is tripped successfully and the switching
conditions are satisfied, this device will close the circuit breaker of the standby power supply
branch (the main power supply branch).
The series switching conditions include quick switching, leading phase angle switching, leading
time switching, residual voltage switching and long time delay switching.
The quick switching has the highest priority; it means that if the quick switching conditions are
satisfied, this device will switch the power supply according to the quick switching conditions, even
though one or more of the other four judgment conditions are satisfied.
If the quick switching conditions are not satisfied or the quick switching is not operated
successfully, this device will apply one of the other four switching judgment conditions according to
the following priority sequence: (1) leading phase angle switching, (2) leading time switching, (3)
residual voltage switching or (4) long time delay switching.
[phi_Diff_Fast_Chk_TS] is the phase angle difference setting for the quick switching.
[f_Diff_Syn_Chk_TS] is the frequency difference setting for the leading phase angle
switching.
[phi_LeadAng_Syn_Chk_TS] is the phase angle difference setting for the leading phase
angle switching.
According to the current change rates of the frequency difference and phase angle difference
between the busbar and the target power supply, this device can calculate the frequency
difference and phase angle difference between the busbar and the target power supply after
the period of the time setting [t_LeadTim_Syn_Chk_TS].
(2) | ΔΦcal | = 0
In the period of the time setting [t_Slow_Chk_TS], if the above four switching judgment
conditions are all not satisfied, the long time delay switching judgment condition will be
satisfied after the period of the time setting [t_Slow_Chk_TS] for the long time delay
switching.
This mode is started manually, and then this device will trip the circuit breaker of the main power
supply branch (the standby power supply branch). After the period of the time setting
[t_Cls_SimulTS], no matter that whether the circuit breaker of the main power supply branch (the
standby power supply branch) is tripped successfully, if the switching conditions are satisfied, this
device will close the circuit breaker of the standby power supply branch (the main power supply
branch).
The simultaneous switching conditions include quick switching, leading phase angle switching,
leading time switching, residual voltage switching and long time delay switching. See Section
3.1.1.3 for the detailed information about these judgment conditions.
Two switching modes are included in accident switching type: series switching mode and
simultaneous switching mode. The switching mode is selected by the setting [Opt_Prot_Init_TS].
The following table shows the relationship between the switching mode and the relevant setting
configuration.
The start signal “ ” from the relevant protection through the binary input [BI_Prot_Init_TS].
Switching mode Relevant Setting Configuration
[En_TS] = “1”
Series switching [En_Prot_Init_TS] = “1”
[Opt_Prot_Init_TS] = “0”
[En_TS] = “1”
Simultaneous switching [En_Prot_Init_TS] = “1”
[Opt_Prot_Init_TS] = “1”
This mode is started by the protection operation of the main power supply branch due to the fault
on the main power supply branch; and then this device will trip the circuit breaker of the main
power supply branch. After the circuit breaker of the main power supply branch is tripped
successfully and the switching conditions are satisfied, this device will close the circuit breaker of
the standby power supply branch.
The series switching conditions include quick switching, leading phase angle switching, leading
time switching, residual voltage switching and long time delay switching. See Section 3.1.1.3 for
the detailed information about these judgment conditions.
This mode is started by the protection operation of the main power supply branch due to the fault
on the main power supply branch; and then this device will trip the circuit breaker of the main
power supply branch. After the period of the time setting [t_Cls_SimulTS], no matter that whether
the circuit breaker of the main power supply branch is tripped successfully, if the switching
conditions are satisfied, this device will close the circuit breaker of the standby power supply
branch.
The simultaneous switching conditions include quick switching, leading phase angle switching,
leading time switching, residual voltage switching and long time delay switching. See Section
3.1.1.3 for the detailed information about these judgment conditions.
When all the three busbar voltage values are less than the voltage setting [V_UV_Init_TS] for the
period of the time setting [t_UV_Init_TS], the switching operation is started.
There are two kinds of switching modes are includes in this situation: series switching mode and
simultaneous switching mode; and the switching mode is selected through the setting
[Opt_UV_Init_TS].
The following table shows the relationship between the switching mode and the relevant setting
configuration.
The switching procedure of the switching due to busbar voltage loss is same as the switching
procedure of the accident switching, and only can switch the circuit breaker of the main power
branch to the circuit breaker of the standby power branch.
When the circuit breaker of the main power branch is tripped unexpected due to the maloperation
or the mechanism fault, the switching operation is started. And then this device will close the circuit
breaker of the standby power branch, if the switching conditions are satisfied. It only can switch
the circuit breaker of the main power branch to the circuit breaker of the standby power branch.
The following table shows the relationship between the switching mode and the relevant settings.
It starts when the circuit breaker “CB1” is from “ON” to “OFF” and the current of the “CB1” is zero.
Switching mode Relevant Setting Configuration
[En_TS] = “1”
Series switching
[En_MalTrp_Init_TS] = “1”
The series switching conditions include quick switching, leading phase angle switching, leading
time switching, residual voltage switching and long time delay switching. See Section 3.1.1.3 for
the detailed information about these judgment conditions.
In the processing of the switching operation, if the busbar voltage is less than the voltage setting
[V_UVLS1] for the period of the time setting [t_UVLS1], this device will shed the unimportant loads
to ensure the successful self-start of the important loads. The pulse width of the UVLS signal is
one second.
The UVLS function is only enabled when the circuit breaker of the target power supply is closed
successfully in the processing of the switching operation for one second; and if the UVLS function
does not pick up in the one second, then the UVLS function will be blocked automatically.
To the field where the power supply branch has no protection device, this device provides one
stage SOTF protection. When the circuit breaker of the target power supply branch is closed
successfully, if the current of the target power supply branch is greater than the current setting
[I_SOTF] for the period of the time setting [t_SOTF], this device will trip the circuit breaker of the
target power supply branch.
The SOTF protection is only enabled when the circuit breaker of the target power supply is closed
successfully in the processing of the switching operation for one second; and if the SOTF
protection does not pick up in the one second, then the SOTF protection will be blocked
automatically.
Chapter 4 Supervision
4.1 Overview
Though this device is in non-operating state under normal conditions, it is waiting for a switching
operation at any time. When this device is in energizing process before the LED “HEALTHY” is on,
this device needs to be checked to ensure there are no errors. Therefore, the automatic
supervision function, which checks the health of this device when startup and during normal
operation, plays an important role.
This device based on the microprocessor operations is suitable for implementing this automatic
supervision function.
In case a fatal fault is detected during automatic supervision, this device will be blocked out. It
means that this device is out of service. Therefore you must re-energize this device or even
replace a module to make this device back into service.
4.2 Self-supervision
If the DC power supply of the optoelectric isolator on the IO module (NR1522) is lost, the alarm
signal [Alm_Pwr1_Supv] or [Alm_Pwr2_Supv] will be issued and this device will be blocked. The
LED indicator “HEALTHY” will be extinguished.
If anyone of above alarm signals except the signal [Alm_CBCls_LVS_ColdStby] is detected, the
power supply transfer function of this device will be blocked. The LED indicator “ALARM” will be
lit.
The voltage of the main power supply is less than 30%Un and the
current of the main power supply branch is greater than 0.04In at [Alm_VTS_Main]
the same time for 10s.
The voltage of the standby power supply is less than 30%Un and
the current of the standby power supply branch is greater than [Alm_VTS_Stby]
0.04In at the same time for 10s.
If anyone of the above alarm signals is detected, the power supply transfer function of this device
will be blocked.
When the VT of the target power supply is maintained, for keeping the power supply of the busbar,
it can set the setting [En_LossTarg_Blk_TS] as “0”. In this situation, the power supply transfer
function is not blocked due to the busbar VT maintenance, but only the residual voltage switching
and long time delay switching can be applied.
When the binary input [BI_Man_Init_TS] is energized and the switching operation is started, if the
binary input [BI_Man_Init_TS] is keep being energized for 10s, this device will issue an alarm
signal [Alm_BI_Man_Init_TS]. The LED indicator “ALARM” will be lit.
If anyone of above alarm situations is happened, the signal resetting function of this device is
blocked; and the signal resetting function of this device can be enabled only when the relevant
binary input is not energized.
It is only a blocking condition of the quick switching function, and it does not block the transfer
function of this device.

The analog input module can transform these high AC input values to relevant low AC output
value for the DSP module. The transformers are used both to step-down the currents and voltages
to levels appropriate to the electronic circuitry of this device and to provide effective isolation
between this device and the power system. A low pass filter circuit is connected to each
transformer (CT or 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 whether the rated values of the current transformer inputs are
accordant to the demand of the engineering before putting the device into operation.
The front view of the analog input module is shown in Figure 5.1-2.
A 24-pin connector is fixed on the front of this module. The terminal definition of the connector is

Chapter 7 Settings
7.1 Overview
The settings are used to determine the characteristic of each switching operation mode of the
device. It is necessary to configure the settings of this device according to engineering demands
before putting this device into service. If the settings aren’t configured correctly, this device maybe
work abnormally (such as communication interrupted, printing out unexpected codes etc.), even
sometimes much more serious accident will occur (such as maloperation).
The settings of this device include the equipment parameters, the logic settings, the switching
function settings and measurement precision 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 interface or Modbus interface; see Chapter 8 “Communication”).
NOTE: If a CPU or DSP module is replaced, it is necessary to configure all the settings
measurement precision settings according to the parameter label which is pasted on the
new analog input module.
The equipment parameters (in submenu “EQUIP_SETUP”) are mainly used to set the
communication parameters.
NOTE:

measurement precision regulation coefficients of the measured values.
All the measurement precision settings of this device are listed in following table.
Chapter 8 Communication
8.1 General
This section outlines the remote data communication interfaces of this device. This device only
supports two protocols at present: IEC60870-5-103 or Modbus. Setting the relevant
communication parameter can select the expected protocol.
The EIA RS-485 standardized interfaces are isolated, as well as the Ethernet interfaces, and are
suitable for permanent connection whichever protocol is selected. The advantage of this type of
connection is that up to 32 devices can be “daisy chained” together using a simple twisted pair
electrical connection.
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 protocol implementation in this device.
The protocol provided by this device is indicated in the “EQUIP_SETUP” submenu. Using the
keypad and LCD, configure the relevant communication protocol parameters, the corresponding
protocol and will be selected.
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.
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
facility, so if it is located at the bus terminus then an external termination resistor will be required.
EIA RS-485
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 0.5mm2 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.
NOTE:
z 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.
z 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.
z 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.
A brief explanation of IP and network submask is made as bellow. There are four sections for an IP
address.
Where:
Ethernet communication address has above relationship described as an equation with section 1
and section 0 of the IP address.
It is recommended to use 4-pair screened twisted category 5E cable as the communication cable.
A picture is shown bellow.

The unattached Ethernet ports are available for IEC60870-5-103 in this device. The transmission
speed is 100Mbit/s.
The link layer strictly abides by the rules defined in the IEC60870-5-103.
8.3.2 Initialization
Whenever the device has been powered up, or if the communication parameters have been
changed, a reset command is required to initialize the communications. The device 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 device’s transmit buffer.
The device 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 device has been powered up it will also
produce a power up event.
If the device clock is synchronized using the IRIG-B input then it will not be possible to set the
device time using the IEC60870-5-103 interface. An attempt to set the time via the interface will
cause the device to create an event with the current date and time taken from the IRIG-B
synchronized internal clock.
The following table contains a complete listing of all events produced by the device.

Chapter 9 Installation
9.1 General
The equipment must be shipped, stored and installed with the greatest care.
Choose the place of installation such that the communication interface and the controls on the
front of the device are easily accessible.
Air must circulate freely around the equipment. Observe all the requirements regarding place of
installation and ambient conditions given in this instruction manual.
Take care that the external wiring is properly brought into the equipment and terminated correctly
and pay special attention to grounding. Strictly observe the corresponding guidelines contained in
this section.
Modules and units may only be replaced by correspondingly trained personnel. Always observe
the basic precautions to avoid damage due to electrostatic discharge when handling the
equipment.
In certain cases, the settings have to be configured according to the demands of the engineering
configuration after replacement. It is therefore assumed that the personnel who replace modules
and units are familiar with the use of the operator program on the service PC.
DANGER: Only insert or withdraw the power supply module while the power supply is
switched off. To this end, disconnect the power supply cable that connects with the power
supply module.
WARNING: Only insert or withdraw the other boards while the power supply is switched
off.
WARNING: The modules of this device may only be inserted in the slots designated in
Section 5.2. Components can be damaged or destroyed by inserting boards in the wrong
slots.
WARNING: Industry packs and ribbon cables may only be replaced or the positions of
z Should boards have to be removed from this device installed in a grounded cubicle in an HV
switchgear installation, please discharge yourself by touching station ground (the cubicle)
beforehand.
z Only hold electronic boards at the edges, taking care not to touch the components.
z 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.
z Always store and ship the electronic boards in their original packing. Place electronic parts in
electrostatic screened packing materials.
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.
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 this device is mounted in cubicles).
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
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.
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
this device.
This device is made of a single layer 4U height 9.5” chassis with 8 connectors on its rear panel
(See Figure 5.1-2). Following figure shows the dimensions of this device for reference in mounting.

NOTE: It is necessary to leave enough space top and bottom of the cut-out in the cubicle
As mentioned former (Chapter 5 “Hardware Description”), up to eight modules are installed in the
enclosure of this device, and these modules must be plugged into the proper slots of this device
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.
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.
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.
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
The cubicle ground rail must be effectively connected to the station ground rail by a grounding strip
(braided copper).
There are some ground terminals on some connectors of this device, and the sign is “GND”. All the
ground terminals are connected in the cabinet of this device. So, the ground terminal on the rear
panel (see Figure 9.7-2) is the only ground terminal of this device.
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.
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 glancing demo about the wiring for the electrical cables.

Test method:
To unplug all the terminals sockets of this device, 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 this device.
Check that the external wiring is correct to the relevant application 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.
This device can be operated from either 110/125Vdc or 220/250Vdc auxiliary supply depending on
the 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.
It should be noted that this device can withstand an AC ripple of up to 12% of the upper rated
voltage on the DC auxiliary supply.
WARNING: Energize this device only if the power supply is within the specified operating
ranges.
The current and voltage transformer connections must remain isolated from this device for these
checks. The trip circuit should also remain isolated to prevent accidental operation of the
associated circuit breaker.
The liquid crystal display (LCD) is designed to operate in a wide range of substation ambient
temperatures. For this purpose, this device 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 are corresponding to what ordered.
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 this device for approximately 30s. After being
re-energized, the time and date should be correct.
On power up, the green LED “HEALTHY” should have illuminated and stayed on indicating that
this device is healthy.
This device has latched signal relays which remember the state of the switching operation when
this device was last energized from an auxiliary supply. Therefore these indicators may also
illuminate 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 that LED because it is known to be operational.
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.
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.
Test the other LEDs through the relevant switching function commissioning tests which are
described in following sections.
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 this device’s menu.
The current measurement accuracy of this device is ±2.5%. However an additional allowance
must be made for the accuracy of the test equipment being used.
This test verified that the accuracy of voltage measurement is within the acceptable tolerances.
Apply rated voltage to each voltage transformer input in turn; checking its magnitude using a

z Confirm the external wiring to the current and voltage inputs is correct.
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.
If this device 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 this device is put into service.
Ensure that all alarm records, switching operation records and disturbance records have been
cleared and the LEDs have been reset before leaving this device.
Chapter 11 Maintenance
This device is self-supervised and so requires less maintenance than earlier designs. Most
problems will result in an alarm so that remedial action can be taken. However, some periodic
tests should be done to ensure that this device is functioning correctly and the external wiring is
intact.
This device 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.
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.
If the failure is identified to be in this device module and the user has spare modules, the user can
recover the protection by replacing the failed modules.
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 and hardware type-form as the
removed module. Furthermore, the replaced module should have the same software version. And
the replaced analog input module and power supply module 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.
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.
