SECTION 1 GENERAL INFORMATION

INTRODUCTION

BE1-32R, Directional Overpower and BE1-32O/U, Directional Over/Underpower Relays sense real power (IE times the cosine of θ). These solid-state relays are designed for use in single- or three-phase systems to protect equipment against overpower and/or underpower conditions. They may also be used in the supervisory control of circuits.

APPLICATION

Directional Power Relays are typically used in applications where excessive power flow in the tripping direction is bad. Over and/or underpower protection is desirable where:
Power flows into a generator, indicating loss of prime mover torque (motoring).
Power flows into the secondary of a station distribution transformer, indicating an industrial or private
customer is supplying power into the utility system.
Excessive load has been connected to a system.
Overload has been placed on a distribution system.
Overspeeding is a prime concern.
An open breaker creates an overload on a local generation facility.
Loss of excitation can be determined by var sensing.
NOTE
This product is not recommended for power factors below 0.10. Contact Basler Electric for recommended products.

Example 1: Anti-Motoring

When a synchronous generator, operating in parallel with a power system, loses prime mover torque, it remains in synchronism with the system and continues to run as a synchronous motor. Motoring draws power from the system to drive the prime mover and can cause severe damage to the prime mover. Steam turbines require a constant flow of steam to remove the heat caused by turbulence or cavitations on or about the blades. Without this flow of steam, heat builds up and may cause softening or distortion of the turbine blades. Diesel engines and gas turbines are less susceptible to immediate damage, but unburned fuel may present a fire or explosion hazard.
BE1-32 Directional Power Relays can detect power flow into the generator and disconnect the generator before the prime mover sustains inevitable damage. Unlike the conditions arising from faults, the electrical conditions involved in anti-motoring protection are balanced. Therefore, single-phase relay protection is adequate. Figure 1-1 shows connections for single-phase relay (type B or V sensing). This connection measures real power if the system voltages are balanced.
The BE1-32R, Reverse Power Relay must be sensitive enough to detect power levels lower than those required to motor the generator. Sensitivity is much more important on steam and hydro turbines than on reciprocating engines and gas turbines.

Table 1-1 represents the reverse power requirements to motor a generator when the prime mover is
Prime Mover Type
Percent of Rated kW
rotating at synchronous speed with no input power supplied by the prime mover.
Table 1-1. Motoring Reverse Power Requirements
Hydro Turbine 0.2 to 2.0
Steam Turbine (condensing or non-condensing) 0.5 to 3.0
Diesel Engine (no cylinders firing) Up to 25
Gas Turbine Up to 50 (due to compressor load)
The Reverse Power Relay is generally set for levels as low as possible with steam turbines typically being set not higher than three percent and diesels and gas turbines slightly below ten percent.
Time delays are usually employed to avoid nuisance tripping caused by reverse power transient surges that may result from synchronizing or other system disturbances. These time delays are typically set from 2 to 10 seconds, but may be set as high as 30 seconds or more.
An operating condition with very low power levels at a low power factor may not be detected by this product. For very low power levels at power factors of 0.10 or lower, contact Basler Electric for recommended products.

Example 2: Co-Generator Control

In this example, cogeneration concepts are addressed. To illustrate, assume that the cogeneration system has automatic engine controls, an auto-synchronizer, automatic kW, and kvar controls. The system operates virtually by itself. The only function lacking is the start/stop signals to the generators. Two system configurations may be implemented to generate contact closures for start/stop signals.
The first configuration (Figure 1-2) shows a directional power relay connected to the utility to sense kW. The pickup point of the relay is set at the maximum desired utility power level. When the utility power level exceeds the relay pickup point, the output relay contact closes and the generator is automatically started and paralleled with the utility. A time delay is generally included in the start circuit of about 15 or more seconds to ignore transient overload conditions.
When the generator is paralleled and loaded, the kW signal of the utility decreases by the amount of load the generator has accepted. An underpower relay can measure utility power and generate a stop signal when the utility power decreases below a selected level. A time delay is typically provided for the stop signal of one minute or more (however, time delays are totally user controlled). The Basler Electric Model BE1-32O/U Power Relay incorporates both overpower and underpower sensing in a single relay unit and is ideal for this type of application.
Figure 1-2. Power Relay Start Control
1-2 BE1-32R, BE1-32O/U General Information 9171100990 Rev T
In the second configuration, the start signal is generated in the same manner as that of Figure 1-2. The start signal setpoint may be set above the import power setting. The stop signal will require an underpower relay on the generator output. This system is illustrated in Figure 1-3.

Example 3: Generator Overload

When excessive load has been connected to a generating system, the directional power relay can initiate corrective action. Corrective action could be energizing an alarm to alert the station operator. For automated systems, corrective action could be initiating the sequence to either shed non-critical load or to start and parallel an in-house generator to assume the excess load.
Figure 1-3. Power Relay Start/Stop Control

Example 4: Intertie

Another typical use of the directional power relay, addresses excessive load and concerns distribution protection (Figure 1-4). A high voltage bus supplies two transformers: T1 and T2. Both T1 and T2 can supply all connected load. However, neither T1 nor T2 alone can supply the total load. A BE1-32O/U, over/underpower directional relay can protect this distribution system by providing overload protection for each transformer (overpower function) or by sensing power flow through the transformers (reverse power function) in an undesired direction.
Figure 1-4. Power Relay Distribution Protection
9171100990 Rev R BE1-32R, BE1-32O/U General Information 1-3

Example 5: Delayed Electrical Trip

On large steam units, where overspeeding is a prime concern, a reverse power relay can be used to supervise electrical tripping (field and main ac breakers) for selected relay operations (e.g., non-electrical trips, loss of field relay), as shown in Figure 1-5. The reverse power relay delays breaker tripping until trapped steam has been removed from the piping. In this case, a separate direct-tripping anti-motoring relay can be used to protect for situations not related to an automatic shutdown of the unit.
Figure 1-5. Single-Phase, Non-Electrical Trip Supervision

Example 6: Breaker Opening Detection

Figure 1-6 shows a reverse power relay used to detect the opening of a source at an industrial (or other independent generation) location. A location with no generation but multiple ties from a common source is a good candidate for this relay application. With local generation, the relay is applicable if the local generation is not to deliver real power to the utility.
Figure 1-6. Breaker Opening Detection
Under near-floating conditions (minimal flow of real power from the utility), the relay can encounter a wide range of power factor angles in the first and second quadrants (see Figure 1-7). If the local generation is underexcited, reactive power is supplied by the utility and operation is in the first quadrant. Figure 1-7 shows the range of power factor angles (also in the first two quadrants) under heavy line loading. Because of these power factors, the relay must not operate for any angle in the first and second quadrants.
1-4 BE1-32R, BE1-32O/U General Information 9171100990 Rev T
Figure 1-7. Power Factor, First and Second Quadrants
When breaker N opens, operation transfers to the third or fourth quadrants (see Figure 1-8). If transformer exciting current predominates, operation falls in the third quadrant. If cable charging current pre­dominates, operation falls in the fourth quadrant. In either case, the transformer losses must be supplied. In Figure 1-8, a real current component of four milliamperes is shown and represents core losses of the transformer (about 0.1% of rated).
Figure 1-8. Power Factor, Third and Fourth Quadrants
When breaker N opens, real power reverses from normal and flows toward the utility. This power may be flowing to the tapped load. At this time, the relay operates and causes the 52 breaker to open.
Figure 1-9A shows an underpower tripping application based on the BE1-32O/U, model A1F with an overpower setting of 0.5 watts and an underpower setting of 50%. The control circuit for this application is shown in Figure 1-9B. Figure 1-10 shows the operating characteristic in the first and second quadrant. The relay Under contact closes to trip the breaker when the real power flow from the utility drops below
0.25 watts. Because this contact is pre-closed at the instant of breaker closing, the trip circuit must be disabled by a timing relay (62) until after the breaker has closed.
Figure 1-9. Underpower Tripping
9171100990 Rev R BE1-32R, BE1-32O/U General Information 1-5

Example 7: Reactive Power (Vars) Detection

Figure 1-10. True
This example illustrates a directional power relay configured to distinguish between real and reactive power. Real power (watts) is supplied to the synchronous generator by the prime mover, and reactive power (vars) is supplied to the field by the exciter. When field excitation is significantly reduced and the connected system can provide sufficient reactive power to maintain the generator terminal voltage, reactive power flows into the machine and causes it to operate as an induction generator with essentially the same kW output. This situation causes two major problems. First, the additional reactive loading of the faulty generator must be redistributed to other synchronous generators on the system. Secondly, a synchronous generator is not designed to operate as an induction generator. Excessive heating results in the damper (amortisseur) windings, slot wedges, and in the surface iron of the rotor due to the slip frequency current flow when a synchronous generator is operated as an induction generator.
BE1-32R and BE1-32O/U Directional Power Relays are designed to respond to true power (P) as defined by the following equation and illustrated in Figure 1-10.
P = EI (cos θ)
where: P = real power (watts) I = effective current E = effective EMF or system voltage θ = the power factor angle
However, reactive power (Q) is defined by the equation:
Q = EI (sin θ)
Using the trigonometric identity sine θ = cos(θ – 90 )
then: Q = EI (cos(θ – 90 ))
If the phase of the sensed voltage is shifted +90°, the true power relay can be used to monitor reactive power. In practice, this can be accomplished by applying the appropriate line-to-line voltage to a true power measuring relay designed for line-to-neutral sensing. Figure 1-11 illustrates how a single-phase BE1-32R or BE1-32O/U can be connected to measure either real power (watts) or reactive power (vars) flow in a three-phase system. Note the difference of phase relationship between the alternate connections in Figure 1-11.
