How to implement scheme using Numerical relays ? e@ Vrushank Desai + Follow ) Power system study engineer Published Feb 9, 202 ina protection system, the trip circuit of the circuit breaker is very vital as it isolates the faulty section. A failed trip coil or its circuit, during an event of actual fault, where that CB is commanded to clear the fault, will unable to isolate the faulted equipment / section, as results the fault remains in to the system. Hence, fault shall be isolated by the upstream protective relay. The supervision function is particularly important, when there is only one tripping coil and CB tripping is vital such as Generator circuit breakers or any other important circuit breaker in distribution networks. The 95 is intended for a continuous supervision of circuit breaker trip circuit and to give an annunciation or alarm for he following conditions, hitps:luwu linkedin com/pulsehwhat-rip-orcuit-supenision-95-protection-how-implement-desal 186109/2028, 12:21 \What is Trip Circuit Supervision (95) protection ?

To overcome such situation, Trip Circuit Supervision (95) becomes very necessary. There are many method by which we can implement 95 protection scheme i.e., Post closing monitoring only; Both Pre-closing and Post closing monitoring .

During normal operation, the binary input is activated when the trip contact is open and the trip circuit is complete, because the monitoring circuit is closed by either the 52a circuit breaker auxiliary contact (if the circuit breaker is closed) or through the bypass resistor R by the 52b circuit breaker auxiliary contact.

The above scheme is supervised the tripping circuit in both pre closing and post- closing of circuit breaker. Scheme not only detects interruptions in the trip circuit and loss of control voltage, it also supervises the response of the circuit breaker using the position of the circuit breaker auxiliary contacts.

Conclusion: Hence, The essential requirement of a Trip Circuit Supervision relay is that, to supervise the healthiness of the entire trip circuit comprising DC supply, the tripping cable, CB auxiliary contacts and the CB trip coil, or the tripping relay coil and the DC supply to which it is connected. hips iwi tnkedin.comipulselwhat-rp-citcit-supenvsion-95-protection-how-implement-desal 4182si0gi2029, 1224 Whats Tia Cet Supervision (95) protacton ?

If there is any fault in the tripping circuit, both BI shall not gets energized and as result BO gets high and same can utilized for generating the ‘Trip circuit Faulty’ alarm and also prevent closing of the CB.

Actually, isolating a faulty section is the duty of all the circuit breakers in a protection zone, The opening statement could have been written as Despite the protective relay being perfectly healthy, its faulty trip circuit or trip coil will be unable to trip its circuit breaker. As a result, the fault shall be cleared by the upstream circuit breakers anc upstream relays.Therefore to avoid such a situation, supervising healthiness of trip circuit and trip coil is particularly important. @ Like» Reply | 1 Reaction Jagdish Yeram ly Electrical Engineer - Design at JGC, Japan Thanks for sharing this.
