Analog Inputs
Overall Operation
The digital SIPROTEC 7SD80 overcurrent protection is equipped with a powerful microprocessor. It allows all tasks to be processed digitally, from the acquisition of measured quantities to sending commands to circuit breakers. Figure 1-1 shows the basic structure of the 7SD80 device.
The measuring inputs (MI) convert the currents and voltages coming from the instrument transformers and adapt them to the level appropriate for the internal processing of the device. The device provides 4 current transformers and - depending on the model - additionally 3 voltage transformers. Three current inputs serve for the input of the phase currents, another current input (ΙN) may be used for measuring the ground fault
current ΙN (current transformer starpoint) or for a separate ground current transformer (for sensitive ground fault detection ΙNs and directional determination of ground faults) - depending on the model.
[hw-struktur-7sd80-100801, 1, en_US]
Figure 1-1
There is one voltage input available for each phase-to-ground voltage. The differential protection does not need measuring voltages due to its functional principle. Directional overcurrent protection, however, requires the phase-to-ground voltage VA, VB and VC to be connected. Additionally, voltages can be connected that allow
displaying voltages and power values and also measuring the line voltage for automatic reclosing. The analog quantities are forwarded to the input amplifier group (IA).
The input amplifier group IA provides high-resistance termination for the analog input quantities. It consists of filters that are optimized for measured value processing with regard to bandwidth and processing speed.

Hardware structure of the 7SD80 differential protection
E50417-G1100-C474-A2, Edition 02.2018
The analog-to-digital (AD) element consists of an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter and memory components for data transmission to the microcomputer system.
Microcomputer System
Apart from processing the measured values, the microcomputer system μC also executes the actual protection and control functions. They especially consist of:
Filtering and preparation of the measured quantities
Continuous monitoring of the measured quantities
Monitoring of the pickup conditions for the individual protection functions
Interrogation of limit values and time sequences
Control of signals for the logic functions
Decision on trip and close commands
Recording of messages, fault data and fault values for analysis
Administration of the operating system and its functions, e.g. data storage, realtime clock, communica-
tion, interfaces, etc.
Formation of the local differential protection values (phase comparision for phase-to-phase faults and
phasor analysis for phase-to-ground faults) and creation of the transmission protocol
Decoding the received transmission protocol, synchronization of differential protection values and
totaling the differential currents and charge currents
Introduction
1.1 Overall Operation
Monitoring the communication with the device of the remote end
The information is provided via output amplifier OA.
Binary Inputs and Outputs
Binary inputs and outputs to and from the computer system are relayed via the input/output modules. The computer system obtains information from the system (e.g. remote resetting) or from other devices (e.g. blocking commands). Outputs are, in particular, commands to the switchgear units and annunciations for remote signaling of important events and statuses.
Front Elements
Information such as messages related to events, states, measured values and the functional status of the device are visualized by light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and a display screen (LCD) on the front panel.
Integrated control and numeric keys in conjunction with the LCD enable communication with the remote device. These elements enable the user to retrieve all device information such as configuration and setting parameters, operational indications and fault indications or measured values and to edit setting parameters.
In addition, control of circuit breakers and other equipment is possible from the front panel of the device.
Interfaces
Communication with a PC can be implemented via the USB DIGSI interface using the DIGSI software allowing the user to conveniently handle all device functions.
Port A can be used as protection interface to communicate with another 7SD80 device via an optical fiber cable.
If you are using a copper link to create a connection to the other 7SD80 device, use the voltage terminals D1 and D2 as protection interface.
The protection data interfaces are used to transfer the data of the measured quantities from each end of the protected zone to the opposite end. Further information such as closing of the local circuit breaker or other externally injected trip commands can be transmitted to the opposite end via the protection interface.
In addition to the device communication via DIGSI, Port B can also be used to transmit all device data to a central evaluator or a control center. This interface may be provided with various protocols and physical trans­mission schemes to suit the particular application.

Introduction
1.1 Overall Operation
Power Supply
The functional units described are supplied by a power supply (PS) with the adequate power in the different voltage levels. Transient voltage dips may occur if the auxiliary voltage supply system becomes short-circuited. Usually, they are bridged by a capacitor storage (see also the Section 4 Technical Data).
A buffer battery is located behind the lower front cover.

1.2
Protection Functions
Application Scope
The digital Line Differential Protection SIPROTEC 4 7SD80 is a selective short-circuit protection for overhead lines and cables with single- and multi-ended infeeds in radial, ring or any type of meshed systems of any transmission level. The measured data are compared separately for each phase.
A major advantage of the differential protection principle is the instantaneous tripping in the event of a short circuit at any point within the entire protected zone. The current transformers limit the protected zone at the ends towards the remaining system. This rigid delimitation is the reason why the differential protection scheme shows such an ideal selectivity.
The differential protection system requires a 7SD80 device as well as a set of current transformers at either end of the protected zone. Voltage transformers are not required for the differential protection functions in the 7SD80; they are, however, available to record and display measured values (voltages, power, power factor) or when using a directional overcurrent protection element.
The devices located at the ends of the protected zone exchange measuring information via protection inter­faces using communication links (usually optical fiber or copper cables).
Since fault-free data transmission is the prerequisite for the proper operation of the protection, it is continu­ously monitored internally.
The device's basic function is to detect short-circuits or ground faults in the protected zone – even weak­current or high-resistance short-circuits. Even complex multiphase faults are detected correctly, as the meas­ured values are evaluated separately for each phase. The protection is restraint against inrush currents of power transformers. When switching a line onto a fault, it is possible to send an instantaneous trip signal. The 7SD80 line differential protection includes the differential protection functions of phase comparison protec­tion and ground fault differential protection. Both differential protection functions operate independently of each other.
In the event of a communication failure, the devices can automatically switch to emergency operation using an integrated overcurrent protection until communication is restored. The overcurrent protection comprises two definite time-overcurrent protection elements and one inverse time-overcurrent protection element. Both elements operate directional or non-directional. Additionally, the device features a third definite time-overcur­rent protection element that always operates non-directionally.
For inverse time overcurrent protection, several characteristic curves of different standards are available. Alternatively, the time overcurrent protection can be used as a backup time overcurrent protection, i.e. it oper-
ates independent of and parallel to the differential protection at either end. The communication link can be used for transmitting further information. Besides measured values, it is
possible to transmit binary information. All protection functions in the 7SD80 always trip 3-pole. They can work together with an integrated automatic
reclose function (optional). The automatic reclose functions enables 3-pole automatic reclosing with two reclose attempts.
The thermal overload protection protects cables and power transformers from inadmissible heating due to overload.
Additionally, a two-element overvoltage and undervoltage protection and a four-element frequency protec­tion can be used. A circuit-breaker failure protection monitors the response of the circuit breaker following a trip command.
Control Functions
The device provides a control function which can be accomplished for activating and deactivating switchgear via operator buttons, port B, binary inputs and - using a PC and the DIGSI software - via the front interface.
The switch positions are fed back to the device via auxiliary contacts of the circuit breakers and binary inputs. The current switch positions can be read out at the device and used for plausibility monitoring and interlock­ings. The number of the devices to be switched is limited by the binary inputs and outputs available in the device or the binary inputs and outputs allocated for the switch position feedbacks. Depending on the equip­ment, one binary input (single point indication) or two binary inputs (double point indication) can be used. The release to switch can be restricted by appropriate settings for the switching authority (remote or local), and by the operating mode (interlocked/non-interlocked, with or without password validation). Interlocking

Introduction
1.2 Application Scope
conditions for switching (e.g. switchgear interlocking) can be defined with the help of integrated user-config­urable logic functions.
Messages and Measured Values; Recording of Event and Fault Data
The operational indications provide information about conditions in the power system and the device. Meas­urement quantities and values that are calculated can be displayed locally and communicated via the serial interfaces.
Device messages can be assigned to a number of LEDs on the front cover (allocatable), can be externally processed via output contacts (allocatable), linked with user-definable logic functions and/or issued via serial interfaces.
During a fault (system fault) important events and changes in conditions are saved in fault protocols (Event Log or Trip Log). Instantaneous fault values are also saved in the device and may be analyzed subsequently.
Communication
The following interfaces are available for communication with external operating, control and memory systems.
The USB DIGSI interface on the front cover serves for local communication with a PC. With the SIPROTEC 4 operating software DIGSI, all operation and evaluation tasks can be executed using this operator interface, for instance specifying and editing configuration parameters and settings, configuring user-specific logic func­tions, retrieving operational messages and measured values, inquiring device conditions and measured values, issuing control commands.
Port A is located on the bottom side of the device. This protection data interface connects the device to its partner device at the remote end of the protected object.
Alternatively, you can implement the communication link using the voltage terminals D-1 and D-2. Port B serves for central communication between the device and a control center. It can be operated via data
lines or optical fiber cables. For the data transfer, standardized protocols according IEC 60870-5-103 are avail­able. The integration of the devices into the SINAUT LSA and SICAM automation systems can also be imple­mented with this profile.
Alternatively, there are additional connection options available in connection with PROFIBUS DP and the DNP3.0 and MODBUS protocols. If an EN100 module is available, it is also possible to use the IEC61850 protocol.
You can also use Port B to connect a time synchronization device such as DCF77 or IRIG-B.

Setting the Scope of Functions
General
You can edit the function parameters via the user interface or service interface from a PC running the DIGSI software; some parameters can also be changed using the controls at the front panel of the device. The proce­dure is set out in detail in the /1/ SIPROTEC 4 System Description.

Functional Scope

The 7SD80 device comprises protection functions and additional functions. The hardware and firmware are designed for this scope of functions. Additionally, the control functions can be matched to the system require­ments. Individual functions can be activated or deactivated during the configuration procedure or the interac­tion of functions be modified.
Functional Description
Example for the configuration of the scope of functions: A system consists of overhead lines and underground cables. Since automatic reclosing is only needed for the
overhead lines, the automatic reclosing function is disabled for the relays protecting the underground cables. The available protection functions and additional functions can be configured as Enabled or Disabled. For
some functions, there is a choice between several alternatives possible, as described below. Functions configured as Disabled are not processed in the 7SD80. There are no messages issued and the
corresponding settings (functions, limit values) are not queried during configuration.
NOTE
Available functions and default settings depend on the ordered variant of the relay A Ordering Information
and Accessories).
2.1.1.2
Setting the Functional Scope
Special Settings
Setting Notes
Your protection device is configured using the DIGSI software. Connect your personal computer either to the USB port on the device front or to port B on the bottom side of the device depending on the device version (ordering code). The operation via DIGSI is explained in the SIPROTEC 4 System Description.
The Device Configuration dialog box allows you to adjust your device to the prevailing system conditions. Password no. 7 is required (for parameter set) to change configuration parameters in the device. Without the
password you can only read the settings but not edit and transmit them to the device.
Most settings are self-explaining. The special cases are described in the following. If you want to use the setting group change function, set address 103 Grp Chge OPTION to Enabled. In
this case, you can select up to four different groups of function parameters between which you can switch quickly and conveniently during operation. Only one setting group can be used when selecting the option Disabled.
The differential protection function 87 DIFF.PROTEC. (address 112) as a main function of the device should always be Enabled. This also applies to the supplementary functions of the differential protection such as breaker intertrip.
The external trip initiation (address 122 DTT Direct Trip) is a command that is initiated from an external device for tripping the local circuit breaker.
At address 126 Back-Up O/C, you can set the characteristic group which the time overcurrent protection uses for operation. In addition to the definite-time overcurrent protection an inverse-time overcurrent protec­tion can be configured that either operates according to an IEC characteristic (50(N) 51(N) IEC) or to an
30 SIPROTEC 4, 7SD80, Manual
E50417-G1100-C474-A2, Edition 02.2018
Functions
2.1 General
ANSI characteristic (50(N) 51(N)ANSI). This selection is independent of whether the time overcurrent protection is intended to operate as emergency protection (only in case of protection communication failure) or as independent backup protection. Device versions equipped with directional overcurrent protection (MLFB position 14 = R or S) additionally provide a directional definite time overcurrent protection element and a directional inverse time overcurrent protection element. The characteristic curves of the two inverse time overcurrent protection elements are identical. The different characteristic curves are shown in the Technical Data (Section 4.7 Time Overcurrent Protection ). You can also disable the time overcurrent protection (Disa- bled).
Set to Disabled, the entire time overcurrent protection can be disabled. For overload protection you can define in address 142 49 whether the function is to be Enabled or Disa-
bled. In address 139 you can set the breaker failure protection to Enabled or Disabled. The setting option
enabled w/ 3I0> subjects the ground current and the negative sequence current to a plausibility check. If the device features an automatic reclosing function, address 133 and 134 are of importance. Automatic
reclosure is only permitted for overhead lines. It must not be used in any other case. If the protected object consists of a combination of overhead lines and other equipment (e.g. overhead line/cable), reclosing is only permissible if it is ensured that reclosing will only be performed in the event of a fault on the overhead line. If no automatic reclosing function is desired for the feeder at which 7SD80 operates, or if an external device is used for reclosure, set address 133 79 Auto Recl. to Disabled. Or you can enter the number of desired reclosing attempts there. You can select 1 AR-cycle or 2 AR-cycles.
The AR control mode at address 134 allows a maximum of four options. On the one hand, it can be deter­mined whether the automatic reclosure cycles are carried out according to the fault type detected by the pickup of the starting protective function(s) or according to the type of trip command. On the other hand, the automatic reclosing function can be operated with or without action time.
The setting Trip ... (with trip command ..., default setting) allows you to specify different dead times for each automatic reclose cycle.
The setting Pickup ... (with pickup ...) allows you to enter different dead times for the automatic reclose cycles for 1-phase, 2-phase and 3-phase short circuits. The pickup status of the protection functions at the instant the trip command disappears is decisive here. This operating mode enables making the dead times dependent on the type of fault also for three-pole reclosure cycles. Tripping is always 3-pole.
The setting ... w/ Tact (with ... action time) provides an action time for each automatic reclose cycle. The action time is started by a general pickup of all protection functions. If there is no trip command yet when the action time has expired, the corresponding automatic reclosure cycle cannot be executed. Section 2.11 provides detailed information on this topic. For time graded protection this setting is recommended. If the protection function which is to operate with automatic reclosure does not have a general pickup signal for starting the action times, select ... w/o Tact (without action time).
Address 137 27/59 allows activating the voltage protection function with a variety of undervoltage and over­voltage protection elements.
For the trip circuit supervision enter the number of trip circuits to be monitored at address 140 74 Trip Ct Supv 1 trip circuit, 2 trip circuits or 3 trip circuits, unless you omit it (Disabled).
If the device is connected to voltage transformers, specify this condition in address 144 V-TRANSFORMER. The voltage-based functions, for instance the directional overcurrent protection elements, the ground fault differ­ential protection in resonant-grounded/isolated systems or determination of the voltage-based measured values, can only be activated if voltage transformers are connected.
The flexible protection functions can be configured via parameter FLEXIBLE FUNC.. You can create up to 20 flexible functions by setting a checkmark in front of the desired function. If the checkmark of a function is removed, all settings and configurations made previously will be lost. After re-selecting the function, all settings and configurations are in default setting. The flexible function can be configured in DIGSI at “Settings”, “Additional Functions” and “Settings”. The routing is done, as usual, under “Settings” and “Masking I/O”. If you want to use the flexible protection function, the device must be connected to voltage transformers.

Device, General Settings

The device requires some general information. This may be, for example, the type of annunciation to be issued in the event of an occurrence of a power system fault.
2.1.2.1
Functional Description
Command-dependent Messages "No Trip – No Flag"
The indication of messages masked to local LEDs and the generation of additional messages can be made dependent on whether the device has issued a trip signal. This information is then not output if during a system disturbance one or more protection functions have picked up but no tripping by the 7SD80 resulted because the fault was cleared by a different device (e.g. on another line). These messages are then limited to faults in the line to be protected.
The following figure illustrates the creation of the reset command for stored messages. By the moment of the device dropout, the presetting of the parameter 610 FltDisp.LED/LCD decides, whether the new fault will be stored or reset.

Spontaneous Messages on the Display
You can determine whether or not the most important data of a fault event is displayed automatically after the fault has occurred (see also Subsection "Fault Messages" in Section "Auxiliary Functions").
2.1.2.2
Setting Notes
Fault Display
A new pickup by a protection element generally turns off any previously lit LEDs so that only the latest fault is displayed at any one time. It can be selected whether the stored LED displays and the spontaneous fault indi­cations on the display appear upon the new pickup, or only after a new trip signal is issued. In order to select the desired displaying mode, select the submenu Device in the SETTINGS menu. Under address 610 FltDisp.LED/LCD the two alternatives Target on PU and Target on TRIP ("No trip – no flag") can be selected.
Use parameter 615 Spont. FltDisp. to specify whether or not a spontaneous fault message should appear automatically on the display (YES) or not (NO).
Selection of Default Display
The start page of the default display appearing after startup of the device can be selected in the device data via parameter640 Start image DD. The pages available for each device version are listed in the Appendix
E Default Settings and Protocol-dependent Functions.
Protection Interface Test Mode
To check the communication quality of the two 7SD80 devices during commissioning, set parameter 650 PDI Test Mode to ON. The availability of the communication link via the protection interface is displayed as a stat-

Polarity of Current Transformers

General Power System Data (Power System Data 1)

The device requires certain data regarding the network and substation so that it can adapt its functions to this data depending on the application. The data required include for instance rated data of the substation and the measuring transformers, polarity and connection of the measured quantities, if necessary features of the circuit breakers, and others. Furthermore, there are several function parameters associated with several func­tions rather than one specific protection, control or monitoring function. The Power System Data 1 can gener­ally only be changed from a PC running DIGSI and are discussed in this section.
Setting Notes
In address 201 CT Starpoint the polarity of the current transformers must be entered, in other words, the location of the CT starpoint (Figure 2-2). The setting defines the measuring direction of the device (current in line direction is defined as positive at both line ends). The reversal of this parameter also reverses the polarity of the ground current input ΙN.

Figure 2-2 Polarity of current transformers
Nominal Values of Transformers
In addresses 203 Vnom PRIMARY and 204 Vnom SECONDARY the device obtains information on the primary and secondary rated voltage (phase-to-phase voltage) of the voltage transformers and in addresses 205 CT PRIMARY and 206 CT SECONDARY the information on the primary and secondary rated current of the current transformers (phases).
The voltage connection is required for all functions that work on the basis of power or voltage values, e.g. ground fault differential protection in resonant-grounded/isolated systems, directional overcurrent protection, voltage protection, frequency protection, and to display and record the voltages.
Please make sure that the rated secondary transformer current matches the rated current of the device. Correct entry of the primary data is a prerequisite for the correct computation of operational measured values
with primary magnitude. If the settings of the device are performed with primary values using DIGSI, these primary data are an indispensable requirement for the correct function of the device.
Functions
2.1 General
Current Connection
The device features four current measurement inputs, three of which are connected to the set of current transformers. Various possibilities exist for the fourth current input Ι4:
Connection of the Ι4 input to the ground current in the neutral point of the set of current transformers on
the protected feeder (normal connection, see Appendix C Connection Examples): Address 220 is then set to: I4 transformer = In prot. line and address 221 I4/Iph CT = 1.
Connection of the Ι4 input to a separate ground current transformer on the protected line (e.g. a summa-
tion CT or core balance CT, see Appendix C Connection Examples): Address 220 is then set to: I4 transformer = In prot. line and Address 221 I4/Iph CT is set:
[uebersetzung-erd-phase-260702-wlk, 1, en_US]
Example: Phase current transformers 500 A / 5 A Core balance 60 A / 1 A

SIPROTEC 4, 7SD80, Manual 37 E50417-G1100-C474-A2, Edition 02.2018
Functions
2.1 General
If the input Ι4 is not required, set:
Address 220 I4 transformer = Not connected, Address 221 I4/Iph CT is then irrelevant. In this case, the neutral current is calculated by summing the phase currents.
Rated Frequency
The rated frequency of the system is set at address 230 Rated Frequency. The factory setting of the model variant must only be changed if the device is to be used for a purpose other than intended when ordering. You can set 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
System Starpoint
The manner in which the system neutral point is grounded must be considered for the correct processing of ground faults and double ground faults. Accordingly, set address 207 SystemStarpoint = Grounded,
Peterson-C.Gnd. or Isolated. For low-resistance or high-resistance (“impedance grounded”) systems, set Grounded.
Depending on the setting of this parameter, the ground fault differential protection uses either the measured ground current (Grounded) or the values calculated from the power values (Peterson-C.Gnd. or Isolated).
Command Duration
In address 240 the minimum trip command duration TMin TRIP CMD is set. It applies to all protection and control functions that can initiate a trip command. It also determines the duration of the trip pulse when a circuitbreaker trip test is initiated via the device. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI under Display Addi- tional Settings.
In address 241 the maximum close command duration TMax CLOSE CMD is set. This applies to all close commands issued by the device. It also determines the length of the close command pulse when a circuit­breaker test cycle is issued via the device. It must be long enough to ensure that the circuit breaker has securely closed. An excessive duration causes no problem since the closing command is interrupted in the event that another trip is initiated by a protection function. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI under
Display Additional Settings.
Circuit-Breaker Test
7SD80 allows a circuit-breaker test during operation using a trip-and-close command entered on the front panel or from DIGSI. The duration of the trip command is set as explained above. Address 242 T-CBtest-dead determines the duration from the end of the trip command until the start of the close command for this test. It should not be less than 0.1 s.
Pickup Thresholds of the Binary Inputs (BI Thresholds)
At addresses 260 Threshold BI 1 to 266 Threshold BI 7 you can set the pickup thresholds of the binary inputs of the device. The settings Thresh. BI 176V, Thresh. BI 88V or Thresh. BI 19V are possible here.

(voltages in accordance with connection) are sampled at intervals of 1.0 ms (for 50 Hz) and stored in a revolving buffer (20 samples per cycle). In the event of a fault, the data is stored for a set period of time, but not for more than 5 seconds. Up to 8 fault events can be recorded in this buffer. The fault record memory is automatically updated with every new fault so that there is no acknowledgment for previously recorded faults required. In addition to protection pickup, the recording of the fault event data can also be started via a binary input or via the serial interface.

Functional Description
The data of a fault event can be read out via the device interface and evaluated with the help of the SIGRA 4 graphic analysis software. SIGRA 4 graphically represents the data recorded during the fault event and also calculates additional information from the measured values. Currents and voltages can be presented either as primary or as secondary values. Signals are additionally recorded as binary tracks (marks) e.g. "pickup", "trip".
If port B of the device has been configured correspondingly, the fault record data can be imported by a central controller via this interface and evaluated. Currents and voltages are prepared for a graphic representation. Signals are additionally recorded as binary tracks (marks) e.g. "pickup", "trip".
The retrieval of the fault data by the central controller takes place automatically either after each protection pickup or after a tipping.
Setting Notes
The actual storage time encompasses the pre-fault time PRE. TRIG. TIME (address 411) ahead of the refer­ence instant, the normal recording time and the post-fault time POST REC. TIME (address 412) after the storage criterion has reset. The maximum storage time for each fault recording (MAX. LENGTH) is entered in address 410. Recording per fault must not exceed 5 seconds. A total of 8 records can be saved. However, the total length of time of all fault records in the buffer must not exceed 25 seconds.

During operation the user can switch back and forth setting groups locally, via the operator panel, binary inputs (if so configured), the service interface using a personal computer, or via the system interface. For reasons of safety it is not possible to change between setting groups during a power system fault.
A setting group includes the setting values for all functions that have been selected as Enabled during configuration (see Section 2.1.1.2 Setting Notes). In 7SD80 relays, four independent setting groups (A to D) are available. While setting values may vary, the selected functions of each setting group remain the same.

General Protection Data (Power System Data 2)

The general protection data (P.System Data 2) include settings associated with all functions rather than a specific protection, monitoring or control function. In contrast to the P.System Data 1 as discussed before, they can be changed over with the setting groups and set on the operator panel of the device.
Setting Notes
With address 1103 FullScaleVolt. you inform the device of the primary nominal voltage (phase-to-phase) of the equipment to be protected (if voltages are applied). This setting influences the displays of the opera­tional measured values in %.
The primary nominal current (address 1104 FullScaleCurr.) is that of the protected object. For cables the thermal continuous current-loading capacity can be selected. For overhead lines the rated current is usually not defined. set the rated current of the current transformers (as set in address 205 CT PRIMARY, Section
2.1.3.1 Setting Notes). If the current transformers have different nominal currents at the ends of the protected
object, set the highest nominal current value for all ends. This setting will not only have an impact on the indication of the operational measured values in per cent, but
must also be exactly the same for each end of the protected object, since it is the basis for the current comparison at the ends.
The directional values (power, power factor, work and based on work: minimum, maximum, average and threshold values), calculated in the operational measured values, are usually defined positive in direction to the protected object. This requires that the connection polarity for the entire device is configured accordingly in the P.System Data 1 (compare also “Polarity of the Current Transformers”, address 201). But it is also possible to define the „forward“ direction for the protection functions and the positive direction for the power etc. differently, e.g. so that the active power flow (from the line to the busbar) is indicated in the positive sense. To do so, set address 1107 P,Q sign to reversed. If the setting is not reversed (default), the positive direction for the power etc. corresponds to the “forward” direction for the protection functions.
Circuit-Breaker Status
Information regarding the circuit-breaker position is required by various protection and supplementary func­tions to ensure their optimal functionality. The device has a circuit-breaker status recognition which processes the status of the circuit-breaker auxiliary contacts and contains also a detection based on the measured currents and voltages (see also Section 2.16.2 Tripping Logic for the Entire Device).
In address 1130 the residual current PoleOpenCurrent is set, which will definitely not be exceeded when the circuit-breaker pole is open. If parasitic currents (e.g. through induction) can be excluded when the circuit breaker is open, this setting may be very sensitive. Otherwise this setting must be increased. Usually the presetting is sufficient. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI at Display Additional Settings.
The seal-in time SI Time all Cl. (address 1132) determines the period of time during which the active protection functions are enabled following each energization of the line. This time is started when the internal switching detection function recognizes closing of the circuit breaker or if the circuit-breaker auxiliary contacts or a binary device input signal that the circuit breaker was closed. The time must therefore be longer than the command time of these protection functions plus a safety margin. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI at Display Additional Settings.
In address 1134 Line Closure the criteria for the internal recognition of line energization are determined. only with ManCl means that only the manual close signal via binary input or the integrated control is eval­uated as closure. I OR V or ManCl means that additionally the measured currents or voltages are used to determine closure of the circuit breaker, whereas 52a OR I or M/C implies that either the currents or the states of the circuit-breaker auxiliary contacts are used to determine closure of the circuit breaker. If the voltage transformers are not arranged on the line side, the setting 52a OR I or M/C must be used. In the case of I or Man.Close only the currents or the manual close signals are used to recognize closing of the circuit breaker.

2.1 General
Before each closing detection, the circuit breaker must be recognized as being open for the settable time 1133 T DELAY SOTF.
Address 1135 Reset Trip CMD determines under which conditions a trip command is reset. If CurrentO- penPole is set, the trip command is reset as soon as the current disappears. It is important that the value set in address 1130 PoleOpenCurrent (see above) is undershot. If Current AND 52a is set, the circuit­breaker auxiliary contact must send a message that the circuit breaker is open. It is a prerequisite for this setting that the position of the auxiliary contacts is allocated via a binary input.
For special applications, in which the device trip command does not always lead to a complete cutoff of the current, the setting Pickup Reset can be chosen. In this case, the trip command is reset as soon as the pickup of the tripping protection function drops off and - just as with the other setting options- the minimum trip command duration (address 240) has elapsed. The setting Pickup Reset makes sense, for instance, during the test of the protection equipment, when the system-side load current cannot be cut off and the test current is injected in parallel to the load current.
While the time SI Time all Cl. (address 1132, see above) is activated following each recognition of line energization, SI Time Man.Cl (address 1150) defines the time following special influence on the protection functions is activated. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI at Display

For CB Test and automatic reclosure the CB auxiliary contact status derived with the binary inputs >CB1 ... No. 371, 410 and 411) are relevant for the circuit-breaker test and for automatic reclosure to be able to indicate the circuit-breaker position. The other binary inputs >CB ... (no. 379 and 380) are used to detect the status of the line (address 1134) and to reset the trip command (address 1135). Address 1135 is also used by other protection functions, e.g. switching on overcurrent. For applications with 2 circuit breakers per feeder (1.5 circuitbreaker systems or ring bus), the binary inputs >CB1... must be connected to the correct circuit breaker. The binary inputs >CB... then need the correct signals for detecting the circuit­breaker status. In certain cases, an additional CFC logic may be necessary.

For commands via the integrated control (local control, DIGSI, serial interface) address 1152 Man.Clos. Imp. determines whether a close command via the integrated control function should be treated by the protection regarding the MANUAL CLOSE (like instantaneous re-opening when switching onto a fault). This address also informs the device to which switchgear this applies. You can select from the switching devices which are available to the integrated control. Select the circuit breaker which operates for manual closure and, if required, for automatic reclosure (usually Q0). If none is set here, a CLOSE command via the control will not generate a MANUAL CLOSE impulse for the protection function.

Functional Description
The Ethernet EN100-Modul enables integration of the 7SD80 in 100-Mbit communication networks in control and automation systems with the protocols according to IEC 61850 standard. This standard permits uniform communication of the devices without gateways and protocol converters. Even when installed in heteroge­neous environments, SIPROTEC 4 relays therefore provide for open and interoperable operation. Parallel to the process control integration of the device, this interface can also be used for communication with DIGSI and for inter-relay communication via GOOSE.

Protection Interface

Functional Description
For a layout of lines with two ends, you need one protection interface for each device. Depending on the ordering code, the device features a protection interface via optical fiber (Prot FO) and/or a protection inter­face via copper connection (Prot Cu). To connect Prot Cu, use the voltage terminals D1 and D2.
The input of the protection interface Prot Cu has an insulated design. The integrated overvoltage protection reduces the insulation strength. Use an external isolating transformer to increase the insulation strength. The ordering data can be found in Section A Ordering Information and Accessories under Accessories.
If the device has 2 protection interfaces, the data are preferably exchanged with the device at the other end of the protected object via the FO protection interface. If the optical fiber link fails, the device automatically switches to the Cu protection interface. When the optical fiber link is restored, the FO protection interface automatically resumes communication.
If you want to have the communication link monitored, you have to define the minimum reception level, the maximum permissible fault rate and monitoring times for each device during parameterization. The device's role within the communication line, i.e. whether it operates as master or slave, is defined in the differential protection topology. For further information, please refer to Section 2.2.1 Differential Topology.

Phase Comparison Protection

Functional Description
The phase comparison protection evaluates the phase currents at both ends of the protected object. The 2 7SD80 devices at the ends of the protected object communicate over their protection interfaces. The phases­pecific comparison and the resulting decision to trip the circuit breaker is made separately for each end.
The digitalized currents are first filtered to suppress DC components and higher harmonics.
[lo-pvl-erf-20101117, 1, en_US]
Figure 2-4 Phase comparison protection, determination of the input variables
These filtered values are available to a sensitive dynamic element and a static element. By comparing the polarity of the currents at the two ends of the protected object, they recognize whether the fault is external or internal. An internal fault applies if the polarity of the fault currents is identical on both sides; an external fault or a load step occurs with different polarities.
If the comparison shows without any doubt that a fault is present, the trip command is sent. It is maintained over a set minimum command duration.
The phase comparison protection may trip only at one end in case of single-end infeed. The non-feeding end can also be switched off by means of a transfer trip signal.
Element Ιdyn
The dynamic filter algorithm generates the value idyn(t). It represents the current change of the filtered value (fundamental component) over two cycles. If the current change exceeds the set threshold 87L Idyn>, the phase comparison protection is started.
The polarity of the current change is transmitted to the device at the remote end of the protected object. The dynamic element operates very sensitively in case of internal faults. In case of external faults, the method
is very stable even during different primary rated currents or different saturation of the current transformers at the two ends.
Element Ιstat
The static element Ιstat operates directly with the filtered fundamental value. If the amplitude of the funda­mental component exceeds the set threshold 87L Isteady>, the phase comparison protection is started.
The polarity of the current is transmitted to the device at the remote end of the protected object. The static element is insensitive towards low fault currents.
Pickup Logic
The dynamic and the static element pick up independently of each other selectively for each phase. To prevent tripping during an energization, a separate dynamic switch-on threshold 87L Idyn close> is
used. The pickup is maintained over 2 measuring cycles. After the 2 measuring cycles have expired, the dynamic
sign comparison is blocked.

If the pickup is successful, an internal pickup signal is transmitted to the other device. The element Ιdyn is blocked if the frequency deviates by more than 10 % from the rated frequency. The function is blocked if the communication between the two devices at the ends of the protected object

At address 1205 87L I min you can enter the threshold for releasing the pickup signal. The value should at least correspond to the setting of 87L Idyn>, but not exceed the largest transformer rated current of the constellation.
NOTE
When using different transformers in the constellation, set identical primary setting values. The secondary setting values can be different.
Time Delays
The trip time delay for 87L Isteady> is set in address 1206 87L Trip Delay. With the inrush current detection activated, the time delay 87L Trip Delay must be at least 20 ms for the
blocking by the inrush current detection to be effective. In resonant-grounded or isolated systems, transients must have subsided before tripping takes place. The delay should be at least 3 cycles (60 ms at 50 Hz and 54 Ms at 60 Hz). For large systems, the time delay must be increased accordingly (see Figure 2-16).
At address 1208 87L: T EFdetect you set the time after which an evolving fault is detected. The param­eter is enabled in resonant-grounded or isolated power systems. In the specified time, the 1-phase trip command of the dynamic element 87L: T EFdetect is not forwarded to the tripping logic.
Address 1207 87L Man. Close allows you to set the behavior of the phase comparison protection for manual closing for 87L Isteady>. In this case, tripping can be DELAYED or UNDELAYED (see Figure 2-16).
At parameter 1214 87L:Inrush blk. you can enable or disable the blocking function for the phase comparison in case of inrush. If the parameter is enabled, tripping of the element 87L Idyn> is generally delayed by one cycle. Inrush blocking can thus become effective.

Basic Principle / Influencing Variables

Ground Current Differential Protection in Grounded Systems

The ground current differential protection of the 7SD80 operates as a stabilized (restrained) differential protection in grounded systems. The 2 7SD80 devices exchange the phasors of the ground currents and the associated restraining quantities over their protection interfaces. The restraining currents and the current phasors are summed up in each device and compared to a pickup characteristic. In the event of an internal short-circuit, the associated circuit breaker is tripped.
Funktionsbeschreibung
In healthy operation, both ends of a line carry the same current. This current flows into one side of the consid­ered zone and leaves it again on the other side. A difference in current is a clear indication of a fault within this line section.
If the actual current transformation ratios are the same, the secondary windings of the current transformers CT1 and CT2 at the line ends can be connected to form a closed electric circuit with a secondary current Ι; a measuring element M which is connected to the electrical balance point remains at zero current in healthy operation.
When a fault occurs in the zone limited by the transformers, a current i1 + i2 which is proportional to the fault currents ensures reliable tripping of the protection if the fault current flowing into the protected zone during a fault is
high enough for the measuring element M to respond.
Ι1 + Ι2 flowing in from both sides is fed to the measuring element. As a result, the simple circuit

2.2 Phase Comparison Protection and Ground Differential Protection
[7sd80-diff-grundprinzip-20110530, 1, en_US]
Figure 2-10 Basic principle of the differential protection for a line with two ends
This principle only applies to the primary system as long as quadrature-axis components of current are negli­gible. Quadrature-axis components of current can be caused by line capacitances or excitation currents of transformers and parallel reactors.
The secondary currents which are applied to the devices via the current transformers, are subject to measuring errors caused by the response characteristic of the current transformers and the input circuits of the devices. Transmission errors such as signal jitters can also cause deviations of the measured quantities. As a result of all these influences, the total sum of all currents processed in the devices in healthy operation is not exactly zero. The ground current differential protection is stabilized against these influences.
Additional measuring errors which may arise in the device itself by hardware tolerances, calculation toler­ances, deviations in time or due to the “qualität” of the measured quantities such as harmonics and deviations in frequency, are also estimated by the device and increase the local self-restraining quantity automatically. Here, the permissible variations in the protection data transmission and processing periods are also consid­ered.
For transient inrush currents the devices have a separate inrush current restraint feature.
Evaluation of Measured Values
The ground current differential protection in grounded systems evaluates the sum of the ground current phasors.
Each device calculates a ground current at each end of the protected object (fundamental component of the ground current) and transmits it to the partner device. The received and the locally measured ground current phasor is added to the ground differential current. The ground differential current value equals the fault current that the differential protection system “sees”. In the ideal case, it equals the short-circuit current. In healthy operation, the differential current value is low and for lines about similar to the capacitive charging current.
The restraining quantity counteracts the ground differential current. It is the total of the maximum measured errors at the ends of the protected object and is calculated from the current measured quantities and power system parameters that were set. Therefore, the highest possible error value of the current transformers within the nominal range and/or the short-circuit current range is multiplied with the current flowing through each end of the protected object. The total value, including the measured internal errors, is then transmitted to the other end. This is the reason why the restraint current is a replica of the greatest possible measurement error of the entire differential protection system.
The pickup characteristic of the differential protection is derived from the restraining characteristic Ι (45° curve) which is cut off below the setting value 87N L: I-DIFF>. It complies with the equation
Ι
= 87N L: I-DIFF> + Σ (current transformer errors and other measuring errors).

If the calculated differential current exceeds the pickup threshold and the greatest possible measurement error, the fault must be internal (grayed area in the illustration).

If it is desired that an internal fault should initiate a TRIP command and additionally a local current of a specific quantity should exist, the value of this current can be set at address 1225 87N L: I>RELEAS. The default setting for this parameter is zero so that this additional criterion does not become effective.
The differential current and the restraint current 3I0diff and 3I0restr are included in the fault record.
Blocking / Interblocking
The ground current differential protection can be blocked via a binary input. The blocking at one end of a protected object affects all ends via the communications link (interblocking). If the overcurrent protection is configured as an emergency function, all devices will automatically switch to this emergency operation mode.

The ground differential protection can be switched ON or OFF at address 1221 87N L: Protect.. This requires the ground differential protection to be set to Enabled at address 112 87 DIFF.PROTEC.. The setting Alarm only is only relevant for ground fault detection in resonant-grounded or isolated systems.
If a device is switched off or if the ground differential protection is disabled or blocked in a device, calculation of measured values becomes impossible. The entire ground differential protection system of both ends is blocked in this case.
Pickup Value Ground Current Differential Protection
The current sensitivity is set at address 1222 87N L: I-DIFF>. It is determined by the entire current flowing into a protected zone in case of a fault. This is the total fault current regardless of how it is distributed between the ends of the protected object.
This pickup value must be set to a value that is higher than the total steady-state quadrature-axis component of current of the protected object. For cables and long overhead lines, the charging current has to be consid­ered in particular. It is calculated from the operational capacitance (see Section 2.2.2.2 Setting Notes).

2.2 Phase Comparison Protection and Ground Differential Protection
Considering the variations of voltage and frequency, the value set should be at least 2.5 to 3 times higher than the calculated charging current. Moreover, the pickup value should not be smaller than 15 % of the primary rated current of the largest transformer in the protection configuration.
If setting is performed from a personal computer using DIGSI, the parameters can be set either as primary or as secondary quantities. If secondary quantities are set, all currents must be converted to the secondary side of the current transformers.
Time Delays
In special application cases, it may be advantageous to delay the tripping of the differential protection using an additional timer, e.g. in case of reverse interlocking. The time delay 87N L: T-DELAY (address 1224) is only started upon detection of an internal fault. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI at Display Additional Settings.
With the inrush current restraint activated, the time delay 87N L: T-DELAY must be at least 20 ms for the blocking by the inrush current restraint to be effective.
If it is desired that a TRIP command is generated in the event of an internal fault only if simultaneously the current of the local line end has exceeded a specific quantity, then this current threshold can be set for enabling the differential protection TRIP at address 1225 87N L: I>RELEAS. This parameter can only be set in DIGSI at Display Additional Settings.

Restricted Ground-Fault Protection in Resonant-grounded/Isolated Systems

The ground fault differential protection can be applied in power systems whose starpoint is not grounded or grounded through an arc suppression coil (Petersen coil). It is based on the power values. This requires the phase voltages or the 3V0 voltage (Appendix C Connection Examples, Figure C-5) to be connected to the devices at both ends of the protected object.
Funktionsbeschreibung
Single-phase ground faults are not detected by the short-circuit protection since no short circuit current flows. The power system operation is not immediately affected by a ground fault (the voltage triangle is maintained,
Figure 2-13). Therefore, fast tripping is usually not required or desired. The ground fault is to be detected,
indicated and the affected piece of equipment is to be localized, if possible, eliminating the ground fault by initiating appropriate switching operations.
The 7SD80 enables the precise localization of the piece of equipment (line) affected by the ground fault. In resonant-grounded systems, a core balance current transformer must be used to detect the ground current.

Pickup
Pickup occurs when the settable threshold for the displacement voltage 3·V0 is exceeded. To obtain steady­state measured quantities, the ground fault detection can be delayed by a configurable time after the displace-
ment voltage has occurred.

E50417-G1100-C474-A2, Edition 02.2018
Determination of the Phase Affected by the Ground Fault
Following pickup caused by the displacement voltage, the phase affected by the ground fault is determined first. To do this, the individual phase-to-ground voltages are measured. If the voltage magnitude for any given phase is below the setting value V
, that phase is detected as the ground faulted phase as long as the
min
remaining phase-to-ground voltages are simultaneously above the setting value V
Sensitive Ground Fault Direction Determination
The direction of the ground fault can be determined from the direction of the ground fault current in relation to the displacement voltage. The only restriction is that the active or reactive current components must be available with sufficient magnitude at the point of measurement.
In networks with isolated starpoint, the ground fault current flows as capacitive current from the healthy lines via the measuring point to the point of ground fault. For the determination of the direction the capacitive reactive power is most relevant.
In networks with arc suppression coils, the Petersen coil superimposes a corresponding inductive current on the capacitive ground fault current when a ground fault occurs, so that the capacitive current at the point of fault is compensated. Depending on the measuring point in the system the resultant measured current may be inductive or capacitive. Therefore, the reactive current is not suited for direction determination of the ground current. In this case, only the ohmic (active) residual current which results from the losses of the Petersen coil can be used for direction determination. This residual ground fault residual current is only about some per cent of the capacitive ground fault current.
The active and reactive component of the power is decisive for the ground fault protection pickup. A fault in forward direction must be detected at both ends of the protected object for the ground fault differ-
ential protection to pick up. In case of a single feeder, the residual current per watt at the opposite end of the infeed can be so weak that it
is impossible to determine the direction at that end. In this case, the amplitudes of the active currents of the two ends are additionally compared to initiate pickup and localize the ground fault.
The amplitude of the active current (resonant-grounded system) and the reactive current (for isolated star­point) are included in the fault record. The local wattmetric ground current or reactive current is recorded as Ιee1, the wattmetric ground current or the reactive current of the opposite end as Ιee2.

Setting Notes
General
The operating mode of the ground differential protection depends on the neutral point treatment in the protected zone. In resonant-grounded or isolated system, you have to set Peterson-C.Gnd. or Isolated at address 207 SystemStarpoint.
The ground differential protection can be switched ON or OFF at address 1221 87N L: Protect.. If set to Alarm only, an indication will be output when a fault is detected. Tripping is not initiated. This requires the ground differential protection to be set to Enabled at address 112 87 DIFF.PROTEC..
If a device is switched off at any end of the protected object or if the protection interface communication is interrupted, a calculation of measured values becomes impossible. The function then operates locally and only issues directional indications and pickup indications but no pickup and tripping indications of the ground fault differential protection.
Pickup Values
The pickup threshold of the displacement voltage is set in address 1226 87N L: 3V0>. At address 1229 87N L: IN(s)> you can enter the minimum current for direction determination. The
pickup current is to be set as high as possible to avoid false pickup of the device provoked by unbalanced currents in the system and by current transformers. Dependent on the grounding of the network starpoint, the magnitude of the capacitive ground fault current (for isolated networks) or the wattmetric residual current (for compensated networks) is decisive.
In isolated systems, a ground fault in a cable will allow the total capacitive ground fault currents of the entire electrically connected system, with the exception of the faulted cable itself, to flow through the measuring point as the latter flows directly to the fault location (i.e. not back via the measuring point). Enter about half of this ground fault current as pickup value.
In resonant-grounded systems directional determination is made more difficult since a much larger reactive current (capacitive or inductive) is superimposed on the critical wattmetric (active) current. Therefore, depending on the system configuration and the position of the arc-compensating coil, the total ground current supplied to the device may vary considerably in its values with regard to magnitude and phase angle. The device, however, must evaluate only the active component of the ground fault current, the ground fault residual current, that is ΙN·cosφ. This requires extremely high accuracy, particularly with regard to phase angle
measurement of all the instrument transformers. Furthermore, the device must not be set to operate too sensitive. When applying this function in resonant-grounded systems, a reliable direction determination can only be achieved when toroidal current transformers are connected. Here the following rule of thumb applies: set the value to half the expected measured current, whereby only the residual wattmetric current is used. Residual wattmetric current predominantly derives from losses of the Petersen coil.
For phase determination 87N L:Vph-g min (address 1227) is the criterion that applies to the ground­faulted phase if simultaneously the other two phase voltages 87N L:Vph-g max (address 1228) have been exceeded. Accordingly, the setting 87N L:Vph-g min must be set smaller than the minimum phase-to­ground voltage that occurs during operation. This setting, too, is uncritical. 40 V (default setting) should always be correct. 87N L:Vph-g max must be greater than the maximum phase-to-ground voltage occur­ring during operation, but less than the minimum phase-to-phase voltage occurring during operation. For V
by the ground fault is a further prerequisite for alarming a ground fault. When connecting the voltage V (Appendix C Connection Examples, Figure C-5), the check of the phase voltages does not take place.

Time Delays
The ground fault is detected and reported only when the displacement voltage has applied for at least the time 87N L:TD-F.det. (address 1230). This stabilizing time also takes effect when ground fault conditions change (e.g. change of direction).
The tripping can be delayed via the time delay 87N L:TripDelay (address 1231). With the inrush current restraint activated, the time delay 87N L:TripDelay must be at least 20 ms for the
blocking by the inrush current restraint to be effective.

Differential Protection Test and Commissioning

Differential Protection Test
If differential protection test mode (test mode in the following) is activated, the differential protection is blocked in the entire system. Depending on the configuration, the overcurrent protection acts as emergency function.
In the local device all currents from the other devices are set to zero. The local device only evaluates the locally measured currents, interprets them as differential current but does not send them to the other devices. This enables measuring the thresholds of the differential protection. Moreover, the test mode prevents in the local device that tripping of the differential protection generates a transfer trip signal.
The test mode can be activated/deactivated as follows:
Operation panel: Menu Control/Taggings/Set: “Test mode”

Transmit Circuit
Breaker Intertrip and Remote Tripping
The 7SD80 device allows transmitting a trip command created by the local differential protection to the other end of the protected object (intertripping). Likewise, any desired command of another internal protection function or of an external protection, monitoring or control equipment can be transmitted for remote tripping.

Functional Description

The transmission signal can originate from two different sources (Figure 2-24). If the parameter 85 DT: SEND is set to YES, each tripping command of the differential protection is routed immediately to the trans-
mission function „ITrp.sen. A“ to "...C“ (intertrip) and transmitted via the protection data interfaces and communication links.
The send function can be triggered via binary input can be delayed with 85 DT: TD-BI and prolonged with 85 DT: TD-BI.

On the receiving end the signal can lead to a trip. Alternatively, it can also cause an alarm only. In this way it is possible to determine for each end of the protected object whether the received signal is to trip at this partic­ular end or not.
If the received signal is to cause the trip, it will be forwarded to the tripping logic of the device.

After the binary input(s) have been activated, the signals which are set to cause an alarm at the receiving end are transmitted. These alarms can in turn execute any desired actions at the receiving end.
2.3.2

Setting Notes

General
The intertrip function for tripping caused by the differential protection can be activated (YES) or deactivated (NO) at address 1301 85 DT: SEND.
To ensure that the faulted line is cleared, the intertrip function must be activated. In some applications, e.g. a single feed, it may be desirable to switch off the feeding end only. In such exceptional cases, the intertrip function is not needed.
Breaker Intertrip / Remote Tripping
The activated intertrip function starts automatically when the differential protection trips at only one end. If the relevant binary inputs are allocated and activated by an external source, the intertrip signal is trans-
mitted as well. In this case, the signal to be transmitted can be delayed with address 1303 85 DT: TD-BI. This delay stabilizes the originating signal against dynamic interferences which may possibly occur on the control cabling. Address 1304 85 DT:T-PROL BI is used to extend a signal after it has been effectively injected from an external source.
The reaction of a device when receiving an intertrip/remote tripping signal is set in address 1302 85 DT: RECEIVE. If it is desired to cause tripping, set the value Trip. If the received signal, however, is supposed to cause an alarm only, Alarm only must be set if this indication is to be further processed externally.
The setting times depend on the individual case of application. A delay is necessary if the external control signal originates from a disturbed source and a restraint seems appropriate. Of course, the control signal has to be longer than the delay for the signal to be effective. If the signal is processed externally at the receiving end, a prolongation time might become necessary for the transmitting end so that the reaction desired at the receiving end can be executed reliably.

2.4.1
Emergency Overcurrent Protection
Backup Time Overcurrent Protection
Backup overcurrent
The 7SD80 features an overcurrent protection function which can be used as either backup or emergency overcurrent protection. All elements are independent of each other and can be combined as desired.
The overcurrent protection has two overcurrent elements with definite trip time and one overcurrent protec­tion element with inverse time delay for the phase currents and for the ground current. These elements operate directionally or non-directionally.
One additional definite-time overcurrent protection element always operates non-directionally. It features an additional release input and can act as emergency element if the other elements are used for backup purposes.
The elements are independent of each other and can be combined in any way. Blocking by external criteria via binary inputs is possible.

Operating Modes

The differential protection as a whole can only operate correctly if both devices receive the data of the respec­tive other device properly. The emergency overcurrent protection in contrast requires only the local currents. Acting as emergency overcurrent protection, it automatically replaces the differential protection as short­circuit protection if data communication of the differential protection is faulty (emergency operation). The differential protection is blocked in this case.
If the overcurrent protection is set as backup time overcurrent protection, it will work independently of the other protection and monitoring functions, i.e. also independently of the differential protection. The backup overcurrent protection can also act as the only short-circuit protection if no suitable channels for the commu­nication between the protection devices are available yet during the initial commissioning. It can be used as busbar protection via reverse interlocking in combination with other protection devices or as backup protec­tion function for protection device failure at continuing lines.
2.4.2
Measured Quantities
Definite Time High-set Element 50-1

Non-directional Overcurrent Protection

The phase currents are fed to the device via the input transformers of the measuring input. The ground current Ι0 is calculated from the phase currents.
Each phase current is compared with the setting value 50-B2 PICKUP after numerical filtering; the ground current is compared with 50N-B2 PICKUP. A trip command is issued after pickup of an element and expira­tion of the associated time delays 50-B2 DELAY or 50N-B2 DELAY. The dropout value is about 7 % below the pickup value, but at least 5 % of the rated current.

Inverse Time Overcurrent Element 51
The logic of the inverse overcurrent element basically operates in the same way as the other elements. The time delay, however, is calculated based on the type of the set characteristic, the intensity of the current and a time multiplier (following figure). A pre-selection of the available characteristics was already carried out during the configuration of the protection functions. Furthermore, an additional constant time delay 51-B AddT-DELAY or 51N-B AddTdelay may be selected which is added to the inverse time. The possible charac­teristics are shown in the Technical Data.
The non-directional and the directional inverse time overcurrent element 51 always uses the same character­istic curve that is parameterized via 2642 (IEC) or 2643 (ANSI). Different inverse times and additional times can be parameterized here.
The following figure shows the logic diagram. The setting addresses of the IEC characteristic curves are shown by way of example. In the setting notes (Section 2.4.4 Setting Notes), the different setting addresses are described in detail.
If parameter 51-B Inrush (address 2637) is set to YES, the element is blocked.

Directional Overcurrent Protection

The phase currents are fed to the device via the input transformers of the measuring input. The ground current 3I0 is calculated from the phase currents.
For the directional 67-1 elements, the used measuring voltage is determined by the fault type. The current phase-to-ground voltage is used
for 1-phase or 3-phase faults
if the phase-to-ground voltage is > 4 V
not within the first 50 ms after short-circuit inception as the present voltage is disturbed by transients
during this time.

The saved phase-to-ground voltage is used
for 1-phase or 3-phase faults
up to max. 2 sec. after saving the phasors
if there was not pickup before short-circuit occurrence.
The unfaulted phase-to-phase voltage is used
for 1-phase faults
for unfaulted phase-to-ground voltages
if the voltage value is > 70% of the rated voltage.
The negative-sequence system quantities
for 1-phase or 2-phase faults
if Ι2 > 50 mA and U2 > 5 V.
When using the negative-sequence system quantities, it is the short circuit with the higher current which determines the direction in case of two 1-phase short circuits.
If none of the above measured quantities is available, an already existing result of the direction determination is used or the directional element is blocked for the corresponding phase.
The behavior in the even to a measuring voltage failure can be set. The elements operate directionally or nondirectionally.
The time overcurrent protection only operates directionally if all 3 phase-to-ground voltages are connected. Address 144 must be set to connected here.

The setting of the current pickup value is basically determined by the maximum operational current. Pickup due to overload must be excluded as the device operates as short-circuit protection in this mode with corre­spondingly short command times and not as overload protection. A pickup value setting of about 10% is recommended for line protection, and a setting of about 20% of the expected peak load is recommended for transformers and motors.
The ground current elements detect the smallest anticipated ground fault current. For very long lines with small source impedance or on applications with large reactances (e.g. series reactors),
the 50-2 elements can also be used for current grading. In this case, they must be set such that they do not pickup reliably on a short circuit at the line end.
For the inverse time elements a safety margin between pickup value and setting value has already been imple­mented. Pick up only occurs at a current which is approximately 10% above the set value. Please bear this in mind when specifying the setting values of the inverse time elements.
If an element is not required, set the pickup value to ∞.

They are determined by the time grading chart created for the power system. If used as emergency overcur­rent protection, shorter tripping times are advisable as this function is only activated in the case of the loss of the local measuring voltage.
The times for the ground current elements can be set shorter, according to a separate time grading chart for ground currents.

2.5 InRush Restraint

2.5
2.5.1
InRush Restraint

Functional Description

If the protected zone of the device reaches close to a transformer, a high inrush current must be anticipated when switching on the transformer.
The inrush current can amount to a multiple of the rated current and is characterized by a considerable 2nd harmonic content (double rated frequency) which is practically absent during a short circuit. If the second harmonic content in the differential current exceeds a selectable threshold, tripping is blocked.
The inrush restraint has an upper limit: It no longer takes effect when a (configurable) current value is surpassed since, in this case, it can only be an internal high-current fault.
Figure 2-32 shows a simplified logic diagram. The condition for the inrush current detection is examined in
each device in which this function has been activated. The blocking condition is transmitted to the other device so that it is effective at both ends of the protected object.
[logikdia-einschaltstabilisierung-290803st, 1, en_US]
Figure 2-32 Logic diagram of the inrush restraint for one phase
Since the inrush restraint operates individually for each phase, the protection is fully operative when the trans­former is switched onto a single-phase fault, in which case it is possible for an inrush current to flow through one of the undisturbed phases. It is, however, also possible to set the protection in such a way that when the permissible harmonic content in the current of only one single phase is exceeded, not only the phase with the inrush current but also the remaining phases of the differential stage are blocked. This cross-block function can be limited to a selectable duration. Figure 2-33 shows the logic diagram.
The cross-block function also affects both devices since it not only extends the inrush current detection to all three phases but also sends it to the other device via the communication link.

Setting Notes

The inrush current detection is required for the following applications:
For the differential protection if an inductance is located in the protected zone.
For the time overcurrent protection if the protected line ends on a transformer.
Inrush current detection can be turned ON or OFF at address 2301 INRUSH REST.. It is based on the evaluation of the second harmonic which exists in the inrush current. Ex-works a ratio of
15 % of the 2nd HARMONIC Ι the component required for restraint can be parameterized. In order to be able to achieve a higher degree of
restraint in case of exceptionally unfavorable inrush conditions, you may also set a smaller value. However, if the local measured current exceeds a value set in address 2305 MAX INRUSH PEAK, there will be
no inrush restraint. The peak value is decisive. The set value should be higher than the maximum inrush current peak value that can be expected. For transformers set the value above √2·Ι
on a transformer, a smaller value may be selected, considering the damping of the current by the line impe­dance.
The crossblock function can be activated (YES or deactivated (NO) in address 2303 CROSS BLOCK. The time after exceeding of the current threshold for which this crossblock is to be activated is set under address 2310 CROSSB 2HM. With the setting ∞ the crossblock function is always active until the second harmonic content in all phases has dropped below the set value.

2.6 Circuit Breaker Failure Protection 50BF

2.6
2.6.1
General
Circuit Breaker Failure Protection 50BF
The circuit-breaker failure protection provides rapid backup fault clearance in the event that the circuit breaker fails to respond to a trip command from a protection function of the local circuit breaker.

Functional Description

Each time a fault protection relay of a feeder issues a trip command to the circuit breaker, it is repeated to the breaker failure protection (Figure 2-34). A timer T–BF in the breaker failure protection is started. The timer runs as long as a trip command is present and current continues to flow through the breaker poles.
[funktionsschema-lvs-ueberwach-wlk-010802, 1, en_US]
Figure 2-34 Simplified function diagram of circuit-breaker failure protection with current flow monitoring
Normally, the breaker will open and interrupt the fault current. The current monitoring element quickly resets (typical 10 ms) and stops the timer T–BF.
If the trip command is not carried out (breaker failure case), current continues to flow and the timer runs to its set limit. The breaker failure protection then issues a command to trip the backup breakers and interrupt the fault current.
The reset time of the feeder protection is not relevant because the breaker failure protection itself recognizes the interruption of the current.
For protection functions where the tripping criterion is not dependent on current (e.g. Buchholz protection), current flow is not a reliable criterion for proper operation of the breaker. In such cases, the circuit-breaker position can be derived from the auxiliary contacts of the breaker. Therefore, instead of monitoring the current, the condition of the auxiliary contacts is monitored (see Figure 2-35). For this purpose, the outputs from the auxiliary contacts must be fed to binary inputs on the relay (refer also to Section 2.16.2 Tripping
Logic for the Entire Device).

Monitoring the Current Flow
Each of the phase currents and an additional plausibility current (see below) are filtered by numerical filter algorithms so that only the fundamental component is used for further evaluation.
Special measures are taken in order to detect a current interruption. In case of sinusoidal currents the current interruption is detected after approximately 10 ms. With aperiodic DC current components in the fault current and/or in the current transformer secondary circuit after interruption (e.g. current transformers with linearized core), or saturation of the current transformers caused by the DC component in the fault current, it can take one AC cycle before the interruption of the primary current is reliably detected.
The currents are monitored and compared with the set limit value. Besides the three phase currents, two addi­tional current thresholds are provided in order to allow a plausibility check. For this plausibility check, a sepa­rate threshold value can be used if the configuration is made accordingly (see Figure 2-36).
As plausibility current, the ground current (residual current ΙE (3·Ι0) is preferably used. If the residual current from the neutral of the current transformer set is connected to the device it is used. If the residual current is
not available, the device calculates it with the formula:
Ι0 = ΙA + ΙB + Ι
C
Additionally, the value calculated by 7SD80 of three times the negative sequence current 3·Ι2 is used for plau­sibility check. This is calculated according to the equation: 3·Ι2 = ΙA + a2·ΙB + a·Ι
where
j120°.
a = e
These plausibility currents do not have any direct influence on the basic function of the breaker failure protec­tion but they allow a plausibility check that at least two current thresholds must be exceeded before any of the time delays are started.
In case of high-resistance ground faults, it can happen that the ground current exceeds the sensitive threshold value 50NBF PICKUP (address 3912) whereas the phase current involved in the short circuit does not exceed the threshold value 50BF PICKUP (address 3902). The plausibility check would prevent the start of the breaker failure protection. In this case, the pickup threshold of the phase current monitoring 50BF PICKUP can be switched to the threshold value 50NBF PICKUP. Use the binary input 1404 >50BF 3I0> for this purpose. This binary input is linked to an external signal that is suggestive of a high-resistance fault, e.g. ground fault or displacement voltage detected. The ground current threshold that is set more sensitive is thus also used for monitoring the phase currents (Figure 2-36).

In-Phase Start
Common phase initiation is used for transformer feeders or if the busbar protection trips. If the breaker failure protection is intended to be initiated by further external protection devices, it is recom-
mended, for security reasons, to connect two starting criteria to the device. Besides the trip command of the external relay to the binary input
>50BF Start 3p
general device pickup to binary input
>50BF release
(FNo. 1415) it is recommended to connect also the
(FNo. 1432). For Buchholz protection it is recom-
mended that the trip command is connected to the device by two separate wire pairs. Nevertheless, it is possible to initiate the breaker failure protection in single-channel mode should a separate
release criterion not be available. The binary input
>50BF release
(FNo. 1432) must then not be assigned
to any physical input of the device during configuration.
Figure 2-38 shows the operating principle. When the trip signal appears from any internal or external feeder
protection and at least one current flow criterion (according to Figure 2-36) is present, the breaker failure protection is initiated and the corresponding time delay(s) is (are) started.
If the current criterion is not satisfied for any of the phases, the circuit-breaker auxiliary contact can be interro­gated according to Figure 2-37. After a 3-pole trip command, the circuit breaker has only operated correctly when no current flows over any of the poles.

is connected. The possible initiation conditions for the breaker failure protection are those discussed above. Depending on the application of the feeder protection, common phase or phase-segregated initiation condi­tions may occur. Tripping by the breaker failure protection is always 3-pole.
T2 is used as time delay. With two-element breaker failure protection, the trip command of the feeder protection is usually repeated,
after a first time element, to the feeder circuit breaker, often via a second trip coil or set of trip coils, if the breaker has not responded to the original trip command. A second time element monitors the response to this repeated trip command and trips the breakers of the relevant bus-bar section, if the fault has not yet been cleared after this second time.
The time delay T2 is started after the T1 timer has expired if address 3913 T2StartCriteria = With exp. of T1.
If address 3913 T2StartCriteria = Parallel withT1, T1 and T2 are started simultaneously. The T2 timer can be started by a separate binary input 1424

Circuit-Breaker Malfunction
There may be cases when it is already obvious that the circuit breaker associated with a feeder protection relay cannot clear a fault, e.g. when the tripping voltage or the tripping energy is not available.
In such a case it is not necessary to wait for the response of the feeder circuit breaker. If provision has been made for the detection of such a condition (e.g. control voltage monitor or air pressure monitor), the monitor alarm signal can be fed to the binary input command by the feeder protection, a separate timer T3-BkrDefective, which is normally set to 0, is started (Figure 2-40). Thus, the adjacent circuit breakers (bus-bar) are tripped immediately in case the feeder circuit breaker is not operational.

Transfer Trip to the Remote End Circuit Breaker
The device has the facility to provide an additional intertrip signal to the circuit breaker at the remote line end in the event that the local feeder circuit breaker fails. For this, a suitable protection signal transmission link is required (e.g. via communication cable, power line carrier transmission, radio transmission, or optical fiber
98 SIPROTEC 4, 7SD80, Manual
E50417-G1100-C474-A2, Edition 02.2018
transmission). With devices using digital transmission via protection interface, the remote commands can be applied (see also Section 2.13 Direct Remote Trip and Transmission of Binary Information).
To realize this intertrip, the desired command – usually the trip command which is intended to trip the adja­cent breakers — is assigned to a binary output of the device. The contact of this output triggers the transmis­sion device. When using digital signal transmission the command is connected to a remote command via the userdefined logic (CFC).
End Fault Protection
An end fault is defined here as a fault which has occurred at the end of a line or protected object, between the circuit breaker and the current transformer set.
This situation is shown in Figure 2-41. The fault is located — as seen from the current transformer (= measure­ment location) — on the busbar side, it will thus not be regarded as a feeder fault by the feeder protection device. It can only be detected by either a reverse element of the feeder protection or by the busbar protec­tion. However, a trip command given to the feeder circuit breaker does not clear the fault since the opposite end continues to feed the fault. Thus, the fault current does not stop flowing even though the feeder circuit breaker has properly responded to the trip command.

Figure 2-41 End fault between circuit breaker and current transformers
The end fault protection has the task to recognize this situation and to transmit a trip signal to the remote end(s) of the protected object to clear the fault. For this purpose, the output command
50BF EndFltTrip
is available to trigger a signal transmission device (e.g. power line carrier, radio wave, or optical fiber) – if appli­cable, together with other commands that need to be transferred or (when using digital signal transmission) as command via the protection data interface.
The end fault protection detects an end fault because it registers that current is flowing even though the circuitbreaker auxiliary contacts signal that the circuit breaker is open. An additional criterion is the presence of any breaker failure protection initiate signal. Figure 2-42 shows the functional principle. If the breaker failure protection is initiated and current flow is detected (current criteria “L*> current criterion” according to
Figure 2-36), but no circuit-breaker pole is closed (auxiliary contact criterion “52 closed”), the timer EndFault
Delay is started. At the end of this time, a trip command is sent to the opposite end.

Setting Notes

The circuit-breaker failure protection and its ancillary functions (end fault protection, pole discrepancy supervi­sion) can only operate if they were set during configuration of the scope of functions (address 139 50BF, setting Enabled or enabled w/ 3I0>).
The breaker failure protection is switched ON or OFF at address 3901 FCT 50BF Break.. The current threshold 50BF PICKUP (address 3902) should be selected such that the protection will operate
with the smallest expected fault current. A setting of 10 % below the minimum fault current for which breaker failure protection must operate is recommended. On the other hand, the value should not be set lower than necessary
If the breaker failure protection is configured with zero sequence current threshold (address 139 = enabled w/ 3I0>), the pickup threshold for the zero sequence current 50NBF PICKUP (address 3912) can be set independently of 50BF PICKUP.
Normally, the breaker failure protection evaluates the current flow criterion as well as the position of the breaker auxiliary contact(s). If the auxiliary contact(s) status is not available in the device, this criterion cannot be processed. In this case, set address 3909 Chk BRK CONTACT to NO.
With two-element operation, the trip command is repeated after a time delay T1 to the local feeder breaker, normally to a different set of trip coils of this breaker.
If the circuit breaker does not respond to this trip repetition, the adjacent circuit breakers are tripped after T2, i.e. the circuit breakers of the busbar or of the concerned busbar section and, if necessary, also the circuit breaker at the remote end unless the fault has been cleared.
The time delays can be set separately
for trip repetition to the local feeder circuit breaker after a trip of the feeder protection 50BF-1 Delay
3p (address 3905),
for trip of the adjacent circuit breakers (busbar zone and remote end if applicable) 50BF-2 Delay at
address 3906.
The time delays to be set should be based on the maximum circuit-breaker operating time plus the dropout time of the current flow monitoring element plus a safety margin which takes into consideration the tolerance of the time delay. Figure 2-43 illustrates the time sequences in an example. The dropout time for sinusoidal currents is ≤ 15 ms. If current transformer saturation is anticipated, the time should be set to 25 ms.
