Testing current protection functions

Instantaneous phase overcurrent protection PHPIOC

Prepare the IED for verification of settings as outlined in
verify settings".
Values of the logical signals for PHPIOC are available on the local HMI under
Main menu/Tests/Function status/Current/PHPIOC(50,I>>)/1:PHPIOC. The
Signal Monitoring in PCM600 shows the same signals that are available on the
local HMI.
To verify the settings the following fault type should be tested:
• Phase-to-earth fault
Ensure that the maximum continuous current, supplied from the current source
used for the test of the IED, does not exceed four times the rated current value of
the IED.

Measuring the operate limit of set values

1. Inject a phase current into the IED with an initial value below that of the setting.
2. Increase the injected current until the TRIP signal appears.
3. Switch the fault current off.
Observe: Do not exceed the maximum permitted overloading
of the current circuits in the IED.
4. Compare the measured operating current with the set value.

Completing the test

Continue to test another function or end the testing by setting the parameter
TestMode to Off under Main menu/Tests/IED test mode/1:TESTMODE. If
another function is tested, then set the parameter Blocked to No under Main menu/
Tests/Function test modes/Current/PHPIOC(50,I>>)/1:PHPIOC for the
function, or for each individual function in a chain, to be tested next. Remember to
set the parameter Blocked to Yes, for each individual function that has been tested.
