Introduction
1.1 Overall Operation
1.1Overall 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.
Analog Inputs
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 (I

(current transformer starpoint) or for a separate ground current transformer (for sensitive ground fault detec-

SIPROTEC, 7SD80, Manual
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 V
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.
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, communication,
interfaces, etc.
• Formation of the local differential protection values (phasor analysis and charge current computation) and
creation of the transmission protocol
• Decoding the received transmission protocol, synchronization of differential protection values and totaling
the differential currents and charge currents
• Monitoring the communication with the device of the remote en d

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.

Introduction
1.1 Overall Operation
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.
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.

1.2Application 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.
Introduction
1.2 Application Scope
Protection Functions
The device's basic function is to detect short-circuits or ground faults in the protected zone – even weak-current
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 possi-
ble 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.

Introduction
1.2 Application Scope
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 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.

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 (see A.1 for details).

Setting the Scope of Functions
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.
Special Settings
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.
Functions
2.1 General
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 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 4.6). You
can also disable the time overcurrent protection (Disabled).
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 Disabled.
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 in unit with a transformer or
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. Y ou can select 1 AR-cycle or 2 AR-cycles.

Functions
2.1 General
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 three-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 13727/59 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 checkm ark 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.
