Setting guidelines

All the voltage conditions in the system where UV2PTUV (27) performs its functions should be
considered. The same also applies to the associated equipment, its voltage and time
characteristic.
There is a very wide application area where general undervoltage functions are used. All voltage
related settings are made as a percentage of the global settings base voltage
normally is set to the primary rated voltage level (phase-to-phase) of the power system or the high
voltage equipment under consideration.
The setting for UV2PTUV (27) is normally not critical, since there must be enough time available for
the main protection to clear short circuits andground faults.
Some applications and related setting guidelines for the voltage level are described in the
following sections.
8.1.3.1

Equipment protection, such as for motors and generators

The setting must be below the lowest occurring "normal" voltage and above the lowest acceptable
voltage for the equipment.
8.1.3.2

Disconnected equipment detection

The setting must be below the lowest occurring "normal" voltage and above the highest occurring
voltage, caused by inductive or capacitive coupling, when the equipment is disconnected.
8.1.3.3

Power supply quality

The setting must be below the lowest occurring "normal" voltage and above the lowest acceptable
voltage, due to regulation, good practice or other agreements.
8.1.3.4

Voltage instability mitigation

This setting is very much dependent on the power system characteristics, and thorough studies
have to be made to find the suitable levels.
8.1.3.5

Backup protection for power system faults

The setting must be below the lowest occurring "normal" voltage and above the highest occurring
voltage during the fault conditions under consideration.
8.1.3.6

Settings for Two step undervoltage protection

The following settings can be done for Two step undervoltage protection UV2PTUV (27):
ConnType : Sets whether the measurement shall be phase-to-ground fundamental value, phase-to-
phase fundamental value, phase-to-ground RMS value or phase-to-phase RMS value.
Operation : Disabled or Enabled .
