The protection of power distribution equipment is crucial in assuring a reliable electricity supply. The user
expects full availability of electrical energy at a consistently high standard of quality. Thus, for power-system
protection, for example, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between critical load cases and
short-circuits with minimum fault currents. The demands on optimum use and the corresponding parameterization of protection devices are rising. Intensive evaluation of available information from secondary equipment (using fault recorders) is therefore essential. This is the only way to ensure today's currently high levels
of reliability and availability in electricity transmission and distribution systems for the future as well.
A new era has begun for fault recording with the introduction of the SIPROTEC 5 series. The 7KE85 fault
recorder was developed especially for the requirements of the changing energy market, both current and
future. Powerful, reliable monitoring, combined with the flexible engineering and communication options,
offers the basis for maximum reliability of supply.

device series. Significant features here include:
Modular system design in hardware, software, and communication
•

•
Analog Inputs
The measuring inputs transform the currents and voltages coming from the instrument transformers and
adapt them to the internal processing level of the device. A SIPROTEC 5 device has current and/or voltage
transmitters. The current inputs are therefore intended for the detection of phase currents and ground
current. The ground current can be detected sensitively using a core balance current transformer. In addition,
phase currents can be detected very sensitively for a particularly precise measurement.
The voltage inputs detect the measuring voltage of device functions requiring current and voltage measured
values.
The analog values are digitized in the internal microcomputer for data processing.
Binary Inputs and Outputs
The device receives information from the system or from other devices via the binary inputs and outputs. Indications are generated for the remote signaling of important events and states.
Front Elements
For devices with an integrated or detached operation panel, LEDs and an LC display on the front provide information on the device function and report events, states, and measured values. In conjunction with the LC
display, the integrated keypad enables on-site operation of the device. All device information such as setting
parameters, operating and fault indications or measured values can be displayed, and setting parameters
changed.
USB Interface and Serial Interfaces
The USB interface in the front cover enables communication with a personal computer when using the DIGSI 5
operating program. As a result, the operation of all device functions is possible. Additional interfaces on the
back are used to realize various communication protocols.

Multiple redundant communication interfaces
•
Redundant and independent protocols for control centers possible (such as IEC 61850, either single or
•
redundant)
Redundant time synchronization (such as IRIG-B and SNTP)
•
Power Supply
The individual functional units of the device are powered by an internal power supply. Brief interruptions in
the supply voltage, which can occur during short circuits in the system auxiliary voltage supply, are bridged by
capacitor storage (see also the Technical Data).

1.3 Properties of the Fault Recorder

Properties of the Fault Recorder
The 7KE85 fault recorder is built on the flexible and powerful SIPROTEC 5 modular system and can thus also be
used universally in the scope of system solutions. The 7KE85 fault recorder is able to acquire extensive data,
such as measured values and sampled values (SAV), with high precision. It features a large number of analog
and binary inputs and a high sampling frequency. All data are recorded either by way of continuous criteria or
by way of different trigger criteria. Besides storing the data on internal mass storage, they can also transmit it
to central analysis systems. Consequently, you are able to monitor systems for typical characteristics.
The fault recorder continuously records on the one side via the trend recorder and the continuous recorder.
On the other side, the fault recorder records analog and binary data during a fault, for example, a change in
voltage, short circuits or ground faults, using the triggered fast-scan or slow-scan recorders. The 7KE85 fault
recorder captures this high-precision, time-stamped record, including calculated measurands (such as, for
example, power or frequency), for later evaluation. The evaluation is done after reading out from the device
through DIGSI 5 via SIGRA or via the powerful fault record and PQ data analysis system SICAM PQS/SICAM PQ
Analyzer. Recorded data is archived on internal mass storage to prevent data loss in case of a loss of supply
voltage. Recording of faults ensures long recordings with outstanding accuracy. The 7KE fault recorder
captures and processes the measurands and events according to the IEC 61000-4-30 and IEC 61000-4-15
standards.
Poor power quality can lead to a power failure. Effects on power quality consist of and are created chiefly by
large loads (for example, industrial processes), changes in the current network status (switching operations)
and by external effects (for example, lightning). Power quality standards (for example, EN 50160) are used to
specify limits for electric measurands within which connected devices operate properly without large power
losses. The fault recorder is used as a power quality recorder and evaluation device to show the power quality
of an electricity-supply system.

SICAM PQS/SICAM PQ Analyzer
Siemens SICAM PQS allows all fault records and network quality data (PQ data) to be analyzed in one system.
The protection of power distribution equipment is crucial in assuring a reliable electricity supply. The user
expects full availability of electrical energy at a consistently high standard of quality. Thus, for power-system
protection, for example, it is becoming increasingly difficult to distinguish between critical load cases and
short-circuits with minimum fault currents. The demands on optimum use and the corresponding parameterization of protection devices are rising. Intensive evaluation of available information from secondary equipment using fault recorders is therefore essential. This is the only way to ensure today's currently high levels of
reliability and availability in electricity transmission and distribution systems for the future as well. Additionally, the growing use of power electronics often has a noticeable impact on power quality. The result is poor
power quality, which can cause interruptions, production outages, and high follow-up costs.
Compliance with the generally valid quality criteria for electricity-supply systems as defined in standards (for
example, EN 50160) is therefore vital. The basis must be reliable recording and assessment of all quality
parameters. Weak points and potential fault sources can be identified early on and systematically eliminated.
With the software solution SICAM PQS, Siemens is setting new standards: For the first time, it is possible to
evaluate and archive centrally all network quality data from the bay level with one integrated software solution in a vendor-neutral manner. This gives you a quick and uncomplicated overview of the quality of your
system. With SICAM PQS, you can keep an eye on all relevant data: Fault records as well as all network quality
measured data. For combined applications, SICAM PQS is also easy to expand to a substation automation
system.

Introduction
1.5 Scope of Functions
1.5
Registration Systems in Power Plants
Scope of Functions
In power plants, it is essential that the following problems be analyzed and evaluated and, if necessary,
counter measures implemented:
There is a short circuit on the generator during the startup phase, before the generator has reached the
•
rated frequency of the power-system voltage. During this time range, the generator frequency passes
through a range of 0 Hz to the rated value f
The circuit breaker of the generator closes. In this time range, possible errors, such as incorrect phase
•
sequence or insufficient synchronization, must be registered. Use of the Fast-scan recorder is necessary
in this case, too.
There is a short circuit on the generator or in the transmission system, after the generator was coupled
•
with the electrical power system and ran without interruption. Use of the function Fast-scan recorder is
helpful in this case, too. The cause of the short circuit on the generator can be analyzed with the recordings.
Local or entire system power swings occur. These oscillations can severely stress the generator shaft, if,
•
for example, the use of electronic restraint measures (Power System Stabilizer (PSS)) is not provided or
the calibration of the electronics is faulty. These failures can be recorded precisely with the functions
Slow-scan recorder and Continuous recorder. The process quantities (power, frequency, RMS values of
the fundamental component of currents and voltages and of symmetric components) form a special
characteristic with which the electronic signals of the PSS and other important quantities, such as the
excitation current of the generator, the steam pressure etc., can be recorded. Finally, these signals can be
compared and evaluated with the history of the RMS value of the voltage and the current.
. Use of the Fast-scan recorder is necessary in this phase.
rated
Power swing cycles between the power plant and transmission system can lead to severe damage to the
•
generator if they are not detected in time and shut down. This job is performed by the distance protection equipment. With the use of the Slow-scan recorder function, the network status can be precisely
recorded before, during and after the power swing cycle. If, in parallel to this, the function is activated, it
is possible to clarify, for example, whether a closer or more distant short circuit in the network was the
cause for the trip of this power swing, or load or generator shedding which put the network in this state.
The Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) function is used for monitoring large transmission systems. With
•
this, the phasors of the power-system voltage, the line current and the power frequency are calculated
precisely and provided with a time stamp. The calculated data are sent continuously to a computer via a
communication channel, the Phasor-Data Concentrator (PDC). The data of several PMUs are processed
and evaluated in the PDC so that bottlenecks in the transmission system, line overloads, etc., can be
determined.
The Continuous recorder function is used to examine the long-term stability of power-system voltage
•
and power frequency. With these registration functions, the long-term history of the currents and
voltages, the active and reactive power, the power frequency and other important network variables can
be recorded. With the use of the Continuous recorder registration function, it is possible to adapt the
recordings to be more comprehensive and informative.
As described previously, through the use of a modern fault recorder and proper use of the corresponding functions, the electrical events in and around the power plant can be recorded precisely and then analyzed.
28SIPROTEC 5, Fault Recorder, Manual
C53000-G5040-C018-5, Edition 11.2017
Registration Systems in the Transmission Systems
Most fault recorders are installed in the switchgears for transmission systems. Even though the main application area is still post-mortem analysis and thus the use of the Fast-scan recorder function, the use of other
functions to understand stability problems in the energy network and take the appropriate counter measures
is growing.
Capacitor voltage dividers are used in several transmission systems. In the case of a short circuit in the
•
line, high-frequency fault signals can occur in the voltage map, which then lead to over or under function
of protection devices. With the use of the function Fast-scan recorder, these transient processes, as well
as the behavior of the protection devices can be extensively analyzed.
Common-mode reactors at the beginning and end of transmission lines form a resonant circuit with the
•
line capacity and /or with a longitudinal condenser. If a line is shut off, then resonant oscillations can
exist, which last several network periods. For 1-pole short interruptions, these oscillations of the measured values of protection devices can be significantly corrupted and thus cause unwanted tripping. For
this reason the resonant oscillations must be recorded and analyzed after switching off the lines with the
function Fast-scan recorder.
Inductance of voltage transformers and scatter capacities in switchgears (busbars, lines) can lead to
•
ferroresonance effects. These problems are not registered under normal conditions of protection devices.
If these problems are not detected and counter measures implemented in a timely manner, significant
damage can result in the switchgear, such as the explosion of voltage transformers. For registration of
these processes, the function Fast-scan recorder is necessary.
Measurements over large areas of the transmission system (Wide Area Monitoring) can be performed
•
with the functions Slow-scan recorder and Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU). The objective of the
measurements is the detection of power fluctuations and power swing cycles as well as voltage and
frequency stability problems.
Introduction
1.5 Scope of Functions
Increasingly, the use of continuous recorders is growing. With these functions, the long-term stability
•
problems can be analyzed in detail. These measurements form a solid foundation for expensive investments such as the procurement of compensation systems (SVC).
The availability and quality of the power supply is very important for power distribution utilities. To
•
monitor the voltage quality (also known as Power Quality (PQ)) over a long period of time, the Trendrecorder function must be used. With this function, the long-term behavior of voltages (fluctuations in
frequency, voltage, short-term voltage changes, transients, signal distortions, etc.) can be precisely
recorded. Using the Trend recorder function contributes to a high-quality and reliable energy supply. An
analysis according to EN 50160 can be mapped using the averaged values (frequency: 10 s; short-term
flicker strength over 10 minutes and long-term flicker strength over 2 hours).
Registration Systems in HVDC Switchgear
The use of modern registration systems in high-voltage DC transmission systems (HVDC) is significantly
different than the use in transmission systems or power plants.
The use of the classic function Fast-scan recorder is thus very important in connection with the process signal
inputs. With this constellation, it is possible to register alternating and direct-voltage variables together. In
some cases, it is additionally desired to register gate trigger pulses for thyristors via binary channels. Areas of
use are, for example, Flexible Alternating-Current Transmission Systems (FACTS) and thyristor-driven reactivepower compensation systems.
In the future, it can be expected that, in HVDC and FACTS systems, the use of the functions Slow-scanrecorder, Continuous recorder and Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) will increase to monitor the function
groups of the system for stability control of the network and to register faults.
Registration Systems in Distribution Systems and Industrial Complexes
Modern registration systems are used in important transformer stations where the transition from transmission to distribution takes place. Such transformer stations are present both in the power utility area as well as
in industrial complexes. The most important function is here the Fast-scan recorder for registering short
circuits.
The measuring points can be assigned and established for example as in the Figure 1-3. The fault record or PQ
data acquisition requires, in addition to the selection of the measuring point, also a definition and establishment of the evaluation criteria at the individual measuring points.
