When medium-voltage equipment is operating, certain components are live, other parts may be in movement and some may
reach high temperatures. Therefore, the use of this equipment poses electrical, mechanical and thermal risks.
In order to ensure an acceptable level of protection for people and property, and in compliance with applicable environmental
recommendations, Ormazabal designs and manufactures its products according to the principle of integrated safety, based on
the following criteria:
•Elimination of hazards wherever possible.
•Where elimination of hazards is neither technically nor economically feasible, appropriate protection functions are
incorporated in the equipment.
•Communication about remaining risks to facilitate the design of operating procedures which prevent such risks,
training for the personnel in charge of the equipment, and the use of suitable personal protective equipment.
•Use of recyclable materials and establishment of procedures for the disposal of equipment and components so
that once the end of their service lives is reached, they are duly processed in accordance, as far as possible, with the
environmental restrictions established by the competent authorities
Consequently, the equipment to which the present manual refers complies with the requirements of section 11.2 of Standard
IEC 62271-1. It must therefore only be operated by appropriately qualified and supervised personnel, in accordance with the
requirements of standard EN50110-1 on the safety of electrical installations and standard EN50110-2 on activities in or near
electrical installations. Personnel must be fully familiar with the instructions and warnings contained in this manual and in other
recommendations of a more general nature which are applicable to the situation according to current legislation
The above must be carefully observed, as the correct and safe operation of this equipment depends not only on its design but also
on general circumstances which are in general beyond the control and responsibility of the manufacturer. More specifically:
•The equipment must be handled and transported appropriately from the factory to the place of installation.
•All intermediate storage should occur in conditions which do not alter or damage the characteristics of the equipment
or its essential components.
•Service conditions must be compatible with the equipment rating.
•The equipment must be operated strictly in accordance with the instructions given in the manual, and the applicable
operating and safety principles must be clearly understood.
•Maintenance should be performed properly, taking into account the actual service and environmental conditions in
the place of installation.
The manufacturer declines all liability for any significant indirect damages resulting from violation of the guarantee, under any
jurisdiction, including loss of income, stoppages and costs resulting from repair or replacement of parts.

1. General description
The ekor.rps units are multifunctional protection relays
of numerical technology, and they constitute the basic
element of protection, measurement and control for
cogeneration facilities or for HV/MV electrical bays. They
can be used as autonomous elements of protection, control
and measurement of an electric bay, or integrated within an
integrated protection and control system.
1.1. Scope of the manual
This manual does not t a certain ekor.rps model, it ts the
whole options (for FW version equal or newer than W). For
each specic model only the physical characteristics and
functions of the model are applied. The manual consists of
two volumes: The rst contains the information regarding
conguration, functions etc. and the second contains the

have closed type terminals, the only dierence lies on those
terminals corresponding to T6 and T9 transformers, because
VA, VB and VC measurement transformers, have a common

The input circuit is a 390 Ω serial resistance with an
optoacoplator; for a 5 V signal, the approximate consumption
is 10 mA.
The number of units that can be connected in parallel to
a generator depends on its capacity of supplying output
current; a typical value could be 70 mA, so 6 units could be
connected, (although the length and the type of wire can
also inuence). The wire must be shielded and twisted.

Unit configuration
The settings that are dened next congure the unit, for
what they are basic.
Some are only accessible by keyboard/display; others they
are also accessible by console.
All of them are of single table (table 0). By keyboard/display
you access the programming of the table 0 through the
menu “change settings” by means of the keys↑↑↓↓.
3.1. Programming of digital inputs and logic inputs
In the unit there are two dierent types of inputs: The
digital inputs (physical, wired in the eld) or logical inputs
(internal). Each function of possible input (for example
“breaker state”) is only programmed as digital or logical, but
never as both at the same time.
The programming of digital inputs is as follows:
By console, it is carried out on the screen “digital inputs
conguration”, in the upper square of the two located on
the right.
By keyboard/display:

Cong inputs allows programming a digital input among
the following possibilities:
1. Breaker status.
2. Reference voltage (for the recloser).
3. External protection (79/50 BF). It causes reclosure
(depending on the enables) and activates the breaker
failure function (three-phase).
4. Close command. It activates the closure relay.
5. Open command. Activates the general trip.
6. Instantaneous inhibition. If it is active, the overcurrent
instantaneous does not trip, but they count the time
passed since their picking up. So, when de input is
deactivated and the additional programmed time is
elapsed, they trip instantaneously.

Select. NO/NC. It denes if the input must be interpreted
like active when it is viewed closed or when it is viewed
open. If it is dened as NO, when the input is open the sign
is 0 and when it is closed 1 (for logic inputs). If it is dened
as NC, when the input is open the sign is 1 and when it is
closed 0 (for logic inputs).
For example, for the status of the circuit breaker, if we use a
contact 52 a we should program the corresponding input as
NO (when it closes it indicates closed circuit breaker), while
if we use a 52 b we should program it as NC (when it opens
it indicates closed circuit breaker).
T.activ.inputs (time of activation of inputs). It is a software
lter for the activation/deactivation of digital inputs. The
HW lters is of 1 ms, and it can be extended by Software
in the number of programmed milliseconds (range 0 to
20ms).
The programming of logical inputs is as follows:
By console, it is carried out on the screen “digital inputs
conguration”, in the lower square of the two located on
the right.
A logical input is a virtual (not physical), the state of which
depends on the state of the corresponding logical input
(input 1 corresponds to signal 1, input 15 to signal 15).
Its function is the one that has been programmed (the
programming possibilities are the same as for the digital
inputs).
This procedure allows the assignation of the relay internal
signals to those inputs as if they were wired eld signals. Up
to 15 logical inputs are permitted (there are only 15 logical
signals).
NO/NC selection, input active when the logic is active or
inactive.
Delay is not applied to the activation.
Example: If programming logical input 3 as “breaker status”
and NO, the unit will consider that the breaker will be closed
when logical input 3 is active.
A certain function must be only programmed as one
input. It is not possible, for example, programming “breaker
state” as digital input and as logical input.
3.2. Programming of digital outputs
By console it is carried out in the screen “Digital outputs
conguration”
By keyboard/display:
PROG. TABLE 0 - PROG.CONFIG – PROG. OUTPUTS
OUTPUT ACTIV. T
The functionality of each digital output can be programmed
like an OR of the logical signals available in this unit (see
point “List of available signals”, Appendix III).
In the programming through console (recommended), for
each digital output it is clicked with the mouse in the cells
corresponding to the signs whose OR wants to be activated
by the output (dot-matrix programming).
In the programming screen, at the beginning of the list of
available signals, a line appears with the title “OUTPUT TYPE”
which denes for each digital output if it is of the type “trip”,
“close” “memorized” or “nothing”. If it is of the type “trip” the
output carries out the sealing logic (if the sealing setting
is set to YES) and that of opening failure. If it is of the type
“close” the output carries out the sealing logic (if the sealing
setting is set to YES) and that of close failure. If the type is
“memorized”, once activated it is deactivated digital input
actuation programmed as “local reposition” command or
keyboard/display (“recognize fault”). If the type is “nothing”
it does not do anything special.
The time of activation of outputs denes the minimum
time of operation of each physical output once it has been
activated (in seconds). The range is 0.05 to 5 s. It appears in
the last line of the screen.
By keyboard/display is more complicated. In PROG.SALIDAS,
we nd for each one of them with “ASIGN SIGNALS”, with the
following possibilities.
No signal (the output remains without assigning, but it can
be activated by control commands).
Same signals (it is not wished to change the current
programming).
Other signals (it is wished to change the current
programming). When pushing“↵”(Intro), it is gone through
the logical signals with the arrow↓; when we arrive to a
signal that we want to use in the OR that denes the output
we press “R”; when we nish with the signals, we pulse “↵”,
which takes us to the programming of the output type, with
the possibilities already indicated.

3.4. Programming of general settings
3.4.1. General description
Relay in service: it has to be at Yes in order to have the
protection fully operative. If it is at NO the protection
responds to the communications and the keyboard/
display in order to be put in service; besides it activates the
relay and/or LED programmed as “relay out of service”, by
deactivating all the rest.
Breaker number: it is an identifying text. It can be
programmed as alphanumerical by communications, but
by keyboard only as numerical.
Event mask: in the “events report” section a list is given
with the ones related to the protection. Most of them can
be masked, from the PC. They can not be masked from the
keyboard.
To register an event type the mask has to be set to “NO”.
Transformation ratios: used by the protection only to give
measurements referred to the primary.
Nominal voltage: it is the nominal single-phase voltage. It is
used by the protection to give measurements in PROCOME
format (the scale range of the voltage measurements is 1.2
times the nominal voltage).
Type of voltage: it indicates if the voltage signals connected
to the unit are “simple” (phase-earth) or “compound” (phasephase). In the case of units with closed terminals only the
single ones can be applied.
Voltage measurement: it indicates over which voltages
the voltage protections must be applied.
These settings are located in the console on the screen
“general settings and remote port conguration”, and in the
keyboard/display on “PROG.TABLE 0”–“GENERALS” (through
keyboard, the settings of voltage type and measurement
are both under the title “voltage input”).
The proceedings are totally analogous to the programming
of digital outputs, except that the activation time is not
programmed and that the possible types are “memorized”
and “non memorized”. The non memorized turns o
when the cause for turning on disappears; to turn o the
memorized a “fault acknowledgement” must be done either
by keyboard/display, digital input or command.
On the same console screen, and by keyboard/display on
FACTOR CORRECTION (at the same level as PROG.CHART 0)
can be found the following settings:
“Constant active energy (kWh)”: the number programmed
here is the impulse factor of active energy; this means the
kWh number for which the counter is increased in one unit.
“Constant reactive energy (kWARh)”: the number
programmed here is the impulse factor of reactive energy;
this means the kVARh number for which the counter is
increased in one unit.
“Power correction factor”: is a correction factor of the scale
range for measurements of active and reactive power given
to control (it does not aect to data given by display). It is,
in per unit values, the scale range in which measurements
are given related to the corresponding power to 1.2 I
r
and 1.2 Vr. It means that if the range required is “POWER
BACKGROUND”, the power correction factor is:
3 * 1.2 Ir * 1.2 V
Example 1. Ir=5A, Vr=63.5V (110/√3V)
If it is required that the power full scale should be the power
corresponding to 6 A (1.2 * 5 V) and 76.2 V (1.2 * 63.5)
The following setting is only available via the keypad/
display in IRIG-B format (at the same level as PROG.TABLE 0):
“IRIG-B format”: determines if the year in the IRIG
synchronization is taken into account or not. The options
are: “B002” (which does note take the year into account) and
“B002 IEEE 1344” (which takes the year into account).
“Analog output”: the equipment has two analog outputs,
which provide one output in milliamperes proportional to
the measured value; they can be programmed (only with a

3.5. Communication configuration
3.5.1. Communication via front door (Port 1_1) and rear port Nr. 2 (Port 1_2) (COM 1)
Unit configuration
The ekor.rps unit has an address identifying number, which
makes possible to identify the messages sent to the unit,
from the PC, via its front port (or via its rear port in parallel),
with protocol PROCOME. This address is programmable
from the keyboard/display, entering “CHANGE SETTINGS”,
“PROG. TABLE 0”, “CONFIG.COMMUNIC.”, “FRONT PORT ”, “UCL
ADDRESS”.
The units leave the factory with the address 1. This number
is the one used in the engineering program when dening
the installation.
If, for any reason, this number is changed in engineering, the
address programming has to be changed, and vice versa.
3.5.2. Communication via rear port Nr. 1 (Port 2) (COM 2)
The protocol type to be used by this port is dened in
“CHANGE SETTINGS”, “PROG. TABLE 0”, “CONFIG. COMMUNIC
"SELEC. COMMU. COM 2". The options are: PROCOME, DNP,
MODBUS, IEC 870-5-101 or IEC 870-5-103.
PROCOME
If the option chosen is PROCOME, in “CHANGE SETTINGS”,
“PROG. TABLE 0”, “CONFIG. COMMUNIC.”, “PORT COM2”, a
setting group is programmed which is analogous to the one
dening the front port (it is not necessary that they have
the same values), but there also exists the setting “CONTROL

3.5.3. Ethernet communication
Unit configuration
It is only used in models with an Ethernet port.
To congure the Ethernet port, the rst parameter to
be congured is the one corresponding to the TCP/IP
communication selection. It is congured from the
keypad/display, in “CHANGE SETTINGS”, “PROG.TABLE 0”,
“COMMUNICATIONS”, “SELECT COM TCP/IP”. The parameter
options are: PROCOME, com. Horizontal and No. The operation
is as follows:
1. PROCOME: The Ethernet port communicates with the
PROCOME protocol. In this case, the PROCOME protocol
cannot be selected from the other rear port (“COM 2”).
In summary, the Ethernet port communicates with the
PROCOME protocole, whereas the second rear port (if
available) communicates with the protocol selected,
except with PROCOME.
2. Horizontal communication: The Ethernet port
allows communication between several protection
relays, according to their conguration. Each relay can
communicate with another two relays by sending 8
dierent programmable signals to each one of them.
These programmable signals can be selected out of any
equipment’s signals and receive 8 signals from each of
the relays used for the communication programming.
The relay takes the signals as its own. These signals
are “signal i relay 1 or 2” where i goes from 1 to 8. The
necessary parameters to congure the horizontal
communication are the following (they can only
be accessed with a console, in the “Communication
between relays” screen, within “General”):
a. Protection IP address. Indicates the protection IP address
(server equipment). It is 32 bits, in decimal numbers
separated by dots.
b. Relay 1 IP address (identifier). Indicates the IP address of
protection 1 it wants to communicate with. It is 32 bits,
in decimal numbers separated by dots. If the IP address is
programmed as 0.0.0.0, there is no communication with
relay 1.
c. Signals to transmit relay 1. They are the signals to be
sent to relay 1 (the one with the protection IP address
programmed in the previous parameter).
d. Relay 2 IP address (identifier). Indicates the IP address of
protection 2 it wants to communicate with. It is 32 bits,
in decimal numbers separated by dots. If the IP address is
programmed as 0.0.0.0, there is no communication with
relay 2.
e. Signals to transmit relay 2. They are the signals to be
sent to relay 2 (the one with the protection IP address
programmed in the previous parameter).
The operation is as follows: Each relay communicates with
the other two, sending the status of the programmed
signals every 10 ms; if a change in the programmed signals
is detected, it sends the status every 10 ms. If during 40 ms;
no communication is received from relay 1 or 2 an error
signal is generated with the corresponding relay.
The signals received from relay 1 and relay 2 arrive at
the control signals “Signal i relay 1” and “Signal i relay 2”,
where i goes from 1 to 8. These signals can be treated as
the equipment’s own signals, which means that logics can
be made with them, they can be sent to the outputs, etc.
3. NO. It does not communicate with the Ethernet
port. In this case, the second rear port (if available)
communicates with the selected protocol, allowing
PROCOME.
The other Ethernet port conguration parameters are
congured with the Sipcon console, in the “TCP/IP
conguration” menu. These parameters are:
General
Protection IP address. Indicates the protection IP address
(server equipment). It is 32 bits, in decimal numbers
separated by dots.
Subnetwork Mask. Determines the part of the IP address
which identies the network. It is 32 bits, in decimal
numbers separated by dots. Any IP addresses not meeting
the subnetwork mask, this is with a subnetwork mask part
dierent than “1”, are not considered part of the network
and are not handled. For instance, the mask 255 255 255 000
allows 256 server addresses sharing the rst 3 address
values.
Gateway. Indicates the IP address of the servers, which are
not part of the local network, where the messages are sent.
It is the IP address of the equipment that performs the
network router functions.
Nr. connections. Set to 1.
PROCOME
Master IP address. Indicates the PC address (client equipment).
Port. Indicates the port the master equipment connects to.
UCL address. It is the protection address to which the
protocol responds.

are enabled; if it is set at “NO”, it is as if they did not exist.
If it is at “FUNCTIONALS” both the command push-buttons
and the keys can be used to order commands. These pushbuttons are only eective when the equipment is in local
mode. The equipment starts in remote. To change to local
mode, press “L/R” and “.” if it is in COMMAND and “L/R” if it is
in FUNCTIONALS. The order “local mode” or “remote mode”
must be programmed in the command associated to that

mode and the functional push-buttons are enabled.
3.6.8. Power supply supervision enabling
The power supply supervision can be enabled or not. For its
operation, see section “Power supply supervision”.
3.6.9. Power supply enabling

characteristics (function 5051):
Timed characteristic
1. Inverse normal time( I BSC
[3]
or I ANSI))
2. Inverse short time(IC BSC)
3. Inverse long time (IL BSC)
4. Very inverse time (MI BSC or MI ANSI)
Instantaneous characteristic
1. Two instantaneous elements
2. Additional time
The operation of this protection is coordinated with the
reclosing function.
5. Extremely inverse time (EI BSC or EI ANSI)
6. Very inverse special time (MIEs BSC)
7. Moderately inverse time (ANSI)
Some protection families have a second directional
overcurrent function (67, 67N), called HIGH2, which is
independent from the rst one.

Protection functions. Description and settings
Working with curve, the time to trip depends on the
selected curve (family and index) and the current value.
The curves which are normal, very inverse and extremely
inverse, or user curves can be selected as corresponding
to the standard BS142 (IEC 255-4) or ANSI. In appendix II
graphics and formulas for calculating the time are given, as
a function of the ratio between the current and the pickup
current. If the ratio is higher than 40, 40 will be taken for
calculating.
It is also possible to program 4 user curves.
The unit allows setting the drop time characteristics,
emulating the induction disc of the electromechanical
relays and allowing a better coordination of the protection.
If the enabling is set at "YES+REDROP" and the current
decreases below the 95 % of the set value, the trip drops
instantaneously and the pickup drop time will depend on
4.1.3. Timing cancellation
Through the console screen “timing cancellation” or
through keyboard/display (in the CURRENT PROT., in
TIMING CANCELATION) a digital or logical input can be
the selected curve (family and index) and o the current.
If the selected curve is denite time, the pickup will drop
when the programmed time since it decreases below the
pick up current elapses, regardless the current value. (See
“curves for timed characteristic” in appendix II).
If the enabling is set at "YES" and the current decreases
below the 95 % of the set value, the trip and the pick up
drop instantaneously.
The maximum error in times, for values higher than 50 ms,
is 30 ms or 5 % of the theoretical value (the higher of the
two). For the denite time setting of 0 ms, the behavior is
the same as for the instantaneous characteristic (see next
paragraph).
If an unacceptable index value is programmed
for a type of curve, the unit takes the closest

4.6. Directionality of the phase and neutral overcurrent protections
Depending on model, the described protection functions
can be directional.
In that case, each of the functions (timed, low instantaneous,
high instantaneous) has an additional setting, “torque
control”, if it is FOWARD or REVERSE, it indicates that
the function must act as directional (in one direction
or in the other one) and if it is set as NO it must act as
NONDIRECTIONAL.
For the neutral directional there are 4 directional types: The
angular, the watimetric, the I*cos(j) and the I*sen(j).
Watimetric directional and the cosen type directional are
practically equal, with the only exception that one is set to
W and the other one to A.
Even when the torque control set at YES
(FOWARD or REVERSE), the directionality
can be blocked (make it operate as nondirectional) by PROCOME command or
by digital or logic input (if it has been
programmed in the “Locking (I)” screen in
the “directional” position.
The settings corresponding to the directionality criteria
are on the screen “overcurrent protection screen (3)”. The
possibilities are related next and afterwards the functions
operation is described.
Phase direction criteria. It is applied in the phase directional
function (67). Next are the possibilities: “Quadrature” and
“sequences”.
Phase angle (degrees). Programmable from 0 to 360°. It is
applied in the phase directional function (67) and in the
neutral directional function (67N) in case the S- neutral
direction criterion has been chosen.
Neutral polarization. This setting is only for models that have
the possibility to polarize the neutral direction by current.
In this case, the possibilities are V (polarization by voltage
only), I (polarization by current only) or V+I (polarization by
both parameters).
Neutral directional type. It can be programmed as “angular
criteria”, “Icos phi”, “Isen phi” or “watimetric”.
Neutral direction criteria. It is applied in the neutral directional
function when it is polarized by voltage. The possibilities
are: S
(zero voltage polarization), S- (polarization by
0
negative voltage sequence), or S0 + S- (polarization by both
parameters).
If several polarization criteria combinations are used, the
fault will be decided to be forwards if some of the criteria
show it is forwards.

applied in the neutral directional function (67N) in case the

Operation
For the phase directionality detection, the polarization
voltage is the one corresponding to the connection in
quadrature (90°), where each phase current is compared
with the compound voltage between the other two phases.
It works as three single-phase units in which the polarization
voltages are the voltages composed by the healthy phases.
These voltages are obtained through calculation or through
transformer measurement depending if the setting voltage

this zone the relay maintains the last state in which it was

from a non-trip zone it is maintained without tripping until
crossing that zone.
If, for example, is wished that the tripping zone be between

4.10. Phase characteristic voltage control (function 51 V/50 V)
The timed phase overcurrent protection function can be
controlled by voltage, in the way that the starting current
decreases if the voltage control is lower than the nominal
voltage. To activate this function the setting "voltage
acceleration" of the settings screen “overcurrent protection
1 – phases” (or by keyboard/display the PROTECTIONCURRENT PROT.-PHASE TOC.- ACCEL. ENABLE) must be set
to "YES". (If it is set to NO, the eective settings are the ones
programmed in the time delay phase overcurrent unit).
The control by voltage has two possible operation ways,
depending on the setting of the "voltage control" on the
screen number 3 of the overcurrent protection settings
(or by keyboard/display in PROTECT. FUNCTION-PA.CRTLVENABLE). If it is set to NO, the unit operates in control mode
1 and if it is set to YES, in control mode 2.

4.10.1. Mode 1 (51V)
The pickup current is controlled by the compound voltage V,
corresponding to that phase, used as control. This function
aects both levels of timing.
When the control voltage is 10 % of the nominal voltage, the
controlled pickup current is 10 % of the programmed value.
78
When the control voltage is 90 % of the nominal voltage, the
controlled pickup current is 90 % of the programmed value.
Between both values, the pickup current variation is lineal
in respect to the control voltage.
For control voltage values higher than 90 % of the nominal
voltage, the pickup current is the programmed one.

4.10.2. Mode 2 (51V)
Protection functions. Description and settings
IWhen the control voltage is lower than the control voltage
(one programmed value), the eective settings of the
function 51 stop being the programmed in "phase time
unit", to become the programmed as “voltage controlled”.
In order to retrieve the “phase timing” setting, the three
voltages must be higher than the control voltage.
This function is subordinated to the phase timed unit, in the
sense of making it operative with other settings, but if the
phase time delayed function is not enable, the function 51V
has no eect. This function aects.
4.10.3. Mode 2 (50 V)
In an analogue way to the former one, when some of the
compound voltages are lower than the control voltage (one
programmed value), the eective settings of the function
50 stop being those programmed in "phase instantaneous
unit" (as much in low as in high level), to become the
programmed as “control by voltage”.
This function is subordinated to phase instantaneous, in the
sense of making them operative with other settings, but if
both phase instantaneous functions are not enabled, the
function 50 V has no eect. All the instantaneous functions
The settings are the following:
1. Enable control by voltage: YES/NO (as it has been said
YES means operating in mode 1, NO in mode 2, as long
as the phase time delay "Acceleration" is set to YES).
2. Voltage control: 10 to 200 V.
3. Phase timed unit’s setting group (pickup, curve, time,
etc.), corresponding to “control by voltage”.
(normal, “high1” and “high2”, if existed) are aected and
they start operating with the same values.
The settings are the following:
1. Enable: YES/NO (YES means operating in mode 2, NO
means not operating).
2. Voltage control: 10 to 200 V.
3. Settings of phase instantaneous characteristic (pickup,
time), corresponding to “control by voltage”.
4.10.4. Summary
The function 51 V can operate in mode 1 or mode 2.
The function 50 V can operate only in mode 2.
It is possible the operation of the function 51 V in mode 1
and the function 50 V in mode 2

1. “Phase high current lockout”
a. Phase enable: YES/NO
b. Trip number: 1 to 4
c. Pickup: 0.1 to 200 A
d. Additional time: 0 to 60 s
4.12. Cold load pickup
4.12.1. Description
If they give a trip, it will be moved on to denitive trip’
The number of trip is programmable (1 to 4) within the
sequence of running cycle from which the function is active.
2. “Neutral high current lockout”
a. Neutral enable: YES/NO
b. Trip number: 1 to 4
c. Pickup: 0.1 to 100 A
d. Additional time: 0 to 60 s
This function aims to avoid non wished trips in the following
situation: After being the line de-energized for a period of time
and re-energized later, the load can exceed the protection
setting without the presence of a fault. This may be due to
the accumulative inrush current caused when connecting all
the loads (furnaces, heaters, coolers, etc.) at the same time.
This phenomena can occur not only at the moment of the
breaker manual closing, after having remained open for a
certain time, but also with the breaker permanently closed
due to the operation of another upstream breaker.
What the function does is detecting when those conditions
are given and changing the tripping settings during a
programmable time
.
The function is activated when the current in the 3 phases
is below 10 mA, then the programmed time starts to run to
determine that the load is “cold” (this time can be 0, what
means that any circuit breaker opening leads to the cold
load situation). Once that time has expired and the current
has not exceed again 12 mA, the protection usual setting
values are replaced by the cold load pickup ones. When
any of the phase current exceed 12 mA, a counter with
programmable time starts, during which the setting are the
cold load pickup ones, when expiring this time, the setting
are again the usual ones.

The algorithm stores the periods of the last 5 cycles of the
signal and calculates the frequency derivative comparing

This calculus is repeated having in account the
measurements separated by two cycles so that it makes
sure that the frequency has been falling the whole time,
that is, it is not a spurious measurement that can lead to a
trip.
For the unit to pickup, the frequency derivative must be
exceeded in module during the set number of cycles minus
4 cycles. That is, if it is set to 5 cycles the frequency rate of
change must be viewed repeated once in order to pickup.
If the setting is 4 or lower the unit picks up the rst time the
measurement is viewed above the threshold (in absolute
value).
The pickup happens only if the value of df/dt is negative,
that is if the present frequency value is lower than the value
5 cycles before.
During the pickup process one measurement is allowed to
be out of the pickup range without restarting the process.
That is, if for example 3 cycles (set to 7 cycles) are required
to cause pickup, it is enough if the threshold is exceeded 3
times out of 4 consecutive measurements.
Once the unit has picked up, for it to trip, the frequency rate
of change measurement must remain between the value of
df/dt set and a dropout value equal to df/dt minus 0.05 Hz/s
during the set time.
If some of the inputs are programmed as breaker associated
to the frequency gradient, the trip is locked until that output
is viewed open.
Once the unit has picked up, for it to dropout the
measurement of df/dt must be seen 0.05 Hz/s below the set
value.

To activate the fuse failure, this conditions must be kept

The function is activated until V1 voltage exceeds VFF.
If any function has picked up or during the relay’s waiting

4.20. Teleprotection
4.20.1. Operation
Protection functions. Description and settings
It is based upon the use of teleprotection signals between
both end terminals of the line. The eect upon the output
relays’ operation is determined according to the signals
given by the protection along with the signals given by the
other terminals.
In these schemes, the zones 1, 2 and 3 (F, Forward) look
forward and the zone 3R (R, Reverse) looks backwards.
Zone 3 directionality (F) or (R) depends on the setting
“torque control” (enabled or disabled) of the overcurrent
instantaneous function (50), even if the function is enabled
or not. If torque control is set as NO, the direction is forward.
Zone 1 units include the three overcurrent units (timed and
the two instantaneous levels).
There are two basic types of schemes:
1. Locking scheme: The signal received indicates that
the fault falls outside the zone to be protected. An
overreach zone may trip if the lockout signal is not
received after a given waiting period.
4.20.2. Setting range (6 tables)
2. Permission scheme: The signal received gives
permission for an instantaneous trip within the
overreach zone. Additional ECO and reverse direction
blocking can be used.
The following protection schemes may be selected:
1. Permissive overreach
2. Permissive underreach
3. Directional Locking
4. Directional unlocking
Additionally, together with the schemes, the following can
be selected:
1. ECO
2. Inverse direction locking

4.20.3. Protection trip mask (6 tables)
This setting can only be programmed using a PC, not by
keyboard/display.
There are three types of mask for the protection functions
that may cause “unconditional” “permissive” and “blocked”
trip. This mask is only examined if “enable masks” setting is
set as “YES”. If it is as “NO”, trips are allowed without taking
into account the masks.
Trip causes set as “YES” at “unconditional” mask, gives a trip
after expiring the trip time set, without taking into account
the pilot wire scheme. Unconditional trip output and general
trip output are activated.
Trip causes set as “YES” at “permissive” mask, gives a trip with
acceleration by permissive logic only if permissive logics
(Overreach, underreach or directional unlocking) are selected
in trip logic settings. If a trip with acceleration is given, “pilot
wire scheme trip” output will be activated and not general
trip output.
4.20.4. Used signals
Trip causes set as “YES” at “blocked” mask, give a trip
with acceleration by blocking logic, only if locking logics
(Directional Locking) are selected in trip logic settings. If
a trip with acceleration is given, “Pilot wire scheme trip”
output will be activated and not general trip output.
You can simultaneously select for a function unconditional
and permissive or unconditional and locking, in this way the
trips of the units indicated in the permissive and blocked
mask can be accelerated, if the adequate conditions are
given.
It has to be taken into account that these masks are examined
in the moment of giving the trip command; therefore it has
no eect if the function is disabled by setting. Let’s suppose,
for example that “neutral instantaneous in zones 1, 2 and
3” functions are set as “YES” in unconditional trip mask, but
“neutral instantaneous” is set as “NO” in trip permission after
closing, after second reclosure. During security time after
second reclosure it will not trip by neutral instantaneous,
because this command will not even be executed.
Below the meaning is explained:
ETP: Is called the teleprotection signal sent by a terminal. In
any event, the ETP signal sent by a terminal is kept active for
at least 50 ms, even though the reason that has caused its
activation may disappear.
RTPE y RTP: Both are dierent, and therefore the RTPE is
the input of the teleprotection received by a terminal; while
the RTP follows the RTPE input in order to get activated,
but it keeps the input stored for the TRTP time in order to
be deactivated. If TRTP is adjusted equal to zero, then the
RTP coincides with the RTPE input. In the teleprotection
schemes, RTP is used.
Z3(R)MEM: Locking signal due to reverse direction change.
See the section that corresponds to reverse direction
locking.
Figure 4.24. Teleprotection reception
MINC trip: OR of enabled protection units for unconditional
trips that have trip. These units will trip after the time set,
without taking into account the pilot wire schemes.
MPER pickup: OR of enabled protection units for permissive
trips that have picked up. These units will trip if they have
pickup when the teleprotection signal/RTP MEM) reach
them. If they do not receive permission by this input, they
do not trip.
MBLOQ pickup: OR of enabled protection units for
blocked trips that have picked up. These units will trip, if
they continue in pickup status, after exceeding the locking
signal time (TBLQ) and the signal (RTP) has not arrived. If
they were locked by this input, they would not trip.

main pilot protection schemes
Permissive underreach (PUTT)
Pilot protection signal (ETP) is sent with the activation of
zone 1.
It generates instantaneous pilot protection trip when
receiving the teleprotection signal (RTP) along with the
activation of a unit in zone 1, 2 or 3 (depending on the
settings of trip mask) whenever memorized zone 3 (R)
(Z3(R)MEM) is not activated. The Z3(R)MEM signal can be
eliminated from the logic only by disabling the “Inverse

be continuously as 0.
The logic diagram of this function is:

The channel stop signal (STOP) is activated if a fault is

zone 3 Z3(R)MEM.
The logic diagram is shown below:
Directional Unlocking
Pilot protection instantaneous trip with activation of Z2, if
the unlocking signal (RTP) is received or if only the channel
loss signal (RPSG) is received during the guard signal loss
time (TPSG). Since the moment in which the guard channel
loss signal is activated a 150 ms time span is opened during
which the trip can be given if the RPGS signal is activated
during the programmed time (TPSG) without RTP reception.
After these 150 ms the guard channel loss signal will have
no eect over the pilot protection trip. Therefore, it is
indispensable that the time TPSG is programmed to a value
lower than 150 ms so that the loss signal guard activates
the trip. Once the guard signal is recovered 200 ms will be
waited before starting again the aforementioned logic in
case the guard channel is lost again.
The ETP output is the same as in the POTT scheme. The
Z3(R)MEM signal can be eliminated from the logic only by
disabling the “Inverse direction locking” function. In this case
the Z3(R)MEM would be continuously as 0.

Additional pilot protection schemes
Reverse direction locking
It is used on double-circuit lines in order to prevent the
immediate tripping of a protection that is seeing a fault
backwards (and the carrier signal, which is sent to it by the
forward protection) when the power ow direction changes
(due to opening of the parallel line breaker). It delays the
pilot protection tripping for a few cycles in order to give
the remote terminal time to remove the permission (ETP)
signal after the change of ow direction due to the breaker
opening. The Z3 signal is used with a storage time (Z3(R)
MEM), thereby obtaining the Z3(R)MEM signal to be used
in the rest of the schemes, as shown in the following gure.
The gure shows a ow scheme when the fault occurs and
when the breaker is opened. If this scheme is not used, the
eect could be the following:
When the failure occurs, terminal C sees it in zone 1, D in
zone 1 or 2 according to the length, B backwards and A in
zone 2. In this situation, C opens the breaker and sends the
ETP signal to D. A likewise sends ETP to B.
When the breaker is opened and the ow changes, A would
see the fault backwards and B would see it in zone 2 or 3 (F),
whereby it could trip before A removes the RTP signal.

4.21. Thermal image
4.21.1. General description
This function calculates a temperature according to the
recent and present load conditions of the protected unit.
This temperature is visualized in the display in % with
respect to the trip value; when reaching the programmed
value an alarm relay is activated (if there is any programmed)
and when reaching the 100 % the thermal image trip relay
(if the unit is enabled) and the corresponding signaling
are activated. Once the unit has tripped by this unit, the
relay does not dropout while the calculated temperature is
above the 75 % and the rest of the locking conditions are
fullled. The calculated temperature can be reset through
the keyboard/display (accessing through “↓” to TEMP=0?
and pushing “↓” during 2 seconds) or through console
command.
The time to trip is given by the following curves, which give
the time according to the ratio between the current and the
programmed rated current, and the programmed cooling
constant. According to the following formula (starting from
temperature 0):
Being
t: trip time
τ1: cooling constant
I: average current
I0: programmed rated current

4.21.4. Heating curves
The heating curve is calculated from the following formula:
Being Tf = nal temperature
Ti = initial temperature
t = time
τ1 = Heating time constant
For Ti = 0 the formula is reduced
As in
The heating curve is:
The next gure gives as an example, the heating curves,
with 3 min time constant, for I/I0 = 1 and for I/I0 = 2.
4.21.5. Cooling curves
The cooling curve is calculate from the following:
Being: Tf=nal temperature
Ti=initial temperature
t=time
τ2=cooling time constant
Starting from Ti = 1 (100 in %), tripping temperature, in
order to arrive to a nal temperature of Tf = 0 (that is with
current I = 0), the formulae is reduced to:

Table 4.29. MHO area settings range
The MHO2 area has the same settings range as the MHO1.
Settings Z1A and Z1B delimit the MHO1 tripping area
(settings Z2A and Z2B delimit the MHO2 area). Setting Z1A
represents the oset (in ohms) of the area’s top. This value
can be positive (see Z1A in gure 1) or negative (see Z2A for
the MHO2 area). Setting Z1B represents the diameter of the
MHO1 area.
The protection operates dierently, depending on whether
the area is in undervoltage conditions or not. For one area
to be in undervoltage conditions, one of the following
circumstances must be met:
-20.020.00.1
0.0120.00.1
YES/NO
0.010.00.1
0.0010.000.01
Angle
1. That the measurement in any of the voltage phases is
below the undervoltage start value.
2. That the area’s undervoltage monitoring setting is
disabled.
When the generator enters one of the MHO areas a timer
is activated. If the area is not in undervoltage conditions
the area’s alarm timer is activated. However, if the area is
in undervoltage conditions, the tripping activates the
area’s timer. The latest timer must be set to a value below
the other timer’s. The reason for this is that in undervoltage
conditions the fault must be cleared quickly in order to
avoid the electrical system becoming unstable, since the
generator has few possibilities to recover. Once the timer’s
time has elapsed, the corresponding outputs are activated.

It is the voltage (1.2*Vr) dividided by the minimum current.
To make calculations for the impedances, the positive
sequence current must be equal or higher than a minimum
value set to 0.05 A. This way, the maximum impedance
corresponds to the quotient between the maximum voltage
and the minimum current.
