  • Page 43: Loopback Test

    The L90 includes provision for sending and receiving a single-pole direct transfer trip (DTT) signal from current differential protection between the L90 relays at the line terminals using the pilot communications channel. The user may also initiate an additional eight pilot signals with an L90 communications channel to create trip, block, or signaling logic. A FlexLogic operand, an external contact closure, or a signal over the LAN communication channels can be assigned for that logic.
  • Page 44: Functionality

    Current differential protection: The current differential algorithms used in the L90 Line Current Differential System are based on the Fourier transform phaselet approach and an adaptive statistical restraint. The L90 uses per-phase differential at 64 kbps with two phaselets per cycle. A detailed description of the current differential algorithms is found in chapter 8.

    The second major technical consideration is the restraint characteristic, which is the decision boundary between situations that are declared to be a fault and those that are not. The L90 uses an innovative adaptive decision process based on an on-line computation of the sources of measurement error. In this adaptive approach, the restraint region is an ellipse with variable major axis, minor axis, and orientation.

    The line ground differential function allows sensitive ground protection for single-line to-ground faults, allowing the phase differential element to be set higher (above load) to provide protection for multi-phase faults.

The L90 algorithm accounts for two terms of synchronization error corresponding to: • Raw clock deviation computed from time stamps. There are several effects that cause it to not track exactly. First, the ping-pong algorithm inherently produces slightly different estimates of clock deviation at each terminal.

    For short transmission lines the charging current is a small factor and can therefore be treated as an unknown error. In this application the L90 can be deployed with- out voltage sensors and the line charging current is included as a constant term in the total variance, increasing the differ- ential restraint current.
  • Page 538: Differential Element Characteristics

    The L90 incorporates an adaptive differential algorithm based on the traditional percent differential principle. In the tradi- tional percent differential scheme, the operating parameter is based on the phasor sum of currents in the zone and the restraint parameter is based on the scalar (or average scalar) sum of the currents in the protected zone - when the operat- ing parameter divided by the restraint parameter is above the slope setting, the relay will operate.
  • Page 539: Relay Synchronization

    9.1 OVERVIEW The major difference between the L90 differential scheme and a percent differential scheme is the use of an estimate of errors in the input currents to increase the restraint parameter during faults, permitting the use of more sensitive settings than those used in the traditional scheme.

    Mutual zero-sequence compensation may raise concerns regarding directional integrity on reverse faults in the situation when the relay gets ‘overcompensated’. This problem does not affect the L90 because its ground distance elements use zero-sequence and negative-sequence currents in extra directional comparators. Both the currents are from the protected line and are not affected by any compensation as the latter applies only to the reach defining comparators: the mho, reac- tance and blinder characteristics.

  • Page 592: Channel Asymmetry Compensation Using Gps

    If GPS is enabled at all terminals and the GPS signal is present, the L90 compensates for the channel asymmetry. On the loss of the GPS signal, the L90 stores the last measured value of the channel asymmetry per channel and compensates for the asymmetry until the GPS clock is available.

    The current supervision alone would not prevent maloperation in such circumstances. It must be kept in mind that the fuse failure element provided on the L90 needs some time to detect fuse fail conditions. This may create a race between the instantaneous zone 1 and the fuse failure element. Therefore, for maximum security, it is recommended to both set the current supervision above the maximum load current and use the fuse failure function.
  • Page 597: Ground Distance

    To avoid extremely large reach settings, the L90 has the ability to implement any element so that it is reverse looking, which then can provide a back up for the longest line terminated on the local bus. This strategy can be beneficial if the reduced reach helps discrimination between the load and fault conditions, but must be implemented at both ends of the protected line.

    This situation is encountered when it is desired to account for the zero sequence inter-circuit mutual cou- pling. This is not a problem for the ground distance elements in the L90 which do have a current reversal logic built into their design as part of the technique used to improve ground fault directionality.

    The L90 protection system could be applied to lines with tapped transformer(s) even if the latter has its windings connected in a grounded wye on the line side and the transformer(s) currents are not measured by the L90 protection system. The fol- lowing approach is recommended.

If the L90 system retrofits distance relays, there is a good chance that one can set the distance elements to satisfy the imposed. If more than one transformer is tapped, partic- ularly on parallel lines, and the LV sides are interconnected, detailed short circuit studies may be needed to determine the distance settings.

The operate flag for PIOC1 is PIOC1.ST.Op.general. For the L90 protection elements, these flags take their values from the pickup and operate FlexLogic operands for the corresponding element.

    C.3.4 LOGICAL DEVICE NAME The logical device name is used to identify the IEC 61850 logical device that exists within the L90. This name is composed of two parts: the IED name setting and the logical device instance. The complete logical device name is the combination of the two character strings programmed in the settings.
  • Page 756: Logical Node Name Prefixes

    A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the L90 to detect ‘dead’ connections. If there is no data traffic on a TCP connection for greater than two minutes, the connection will be aborted by the L90. This frees up the con- nection to be used by other clients.

    MAC address for GSSE messages. If GSSE DESTINATION MAC ADDRESS a valid multicast Ethernet MAC address is not entered (for example, 00 00 00 00 00 00), the L90 will use the source Ether- net MAC address as the destination, with the multicast bit set.
  • Page 758 The L90 has the ability of detecting if a data item in one of the GOOSE datasets is erroneously oscillating. This can be caused by events such as errors in logic programming, inputs improperly being asserted and de-asserted, or failed station components.
  • Page 759 REMOTE IN 1 ITEM item to remote input 1. Remote input 1 can now be used in FlexLogic equations or other settings. The L90 must be rebooted (control power removed and re-applied) before these settings take effect. The value of remote input 1 (Boolean on or off) in the receiving device will be determined by the GGIO1.ST.Ind1.stVal value in the sending device.
  • Page 760: Ethernet Mac Address For Gsse/Goose

    GSSE and GOOSE messages must have multicast destination MAC addresses. By default, the L90 is configured to use an automated multicast MAC scheme. If the L90 destination MAC address setting is not a valid multicast address (that is, the least significant bit of the first byte is not set), the address used as the destina- tion MAC will be the same as the local MAC address, but with the multicast bit set.
  • Page 761: Iec 61850 Implementation Via Enervista Ur Setup

    An ICD file is generated for the L90 by the EnerVista UR Setup software that describe the capabilities of the IED. The ICD file is then imported into a system configurator along with other ICD files for other IEDs (from GE or other ven- dors) for system configuration.
  • Page 762: Configuring Iec 61850 Settings

    Transmission GOOSE dataset may be added or deleted, or prefixes of some logical nodes may be changed. While all new configurations will be mapped to the L90 settings file when importing an SCD file, all unchanged settings will preserve the same values in the new settings file.
  • Page 763: About Icd Files

    Although configurable transmission GOOSE can also be created and altered by some third-party system con- figurators, we recommend configuring transmission GOOSE for GE Multilin IEDs before creating the ICD, and strictly within EnerVista UR Setup software or the front panel display (access through the Settings > Product Setup > Com- munications >...
