Page 73 This common voltage is implied to be a power supply common. Some systems allow the shield (drain wire) to be used as common wire and to connect directly to the L60 COM terminal (#3); others function correctly only if the common wire is connected to the L60 COM terminal, but insulated from the shield.
Page 74: Irig-B
IRIG-B is a standard time code format that allows stamping of events to be synchronized among connected devices. The IRIG-B code allows time accuracies of up to 100 ns. Using the IRIG-B input, the L60 operates an internal oscillator with 1 µs resolution and accuracy.
Page 75: L60 Channel Communications
L60 channel communications 3.3.10 As described earlier in this chapter, L60 communication channels reside on the special CT/VT module (type 8P). This module allows for all possible 87PC scheme combinations (such as dual phase comparison or single-phase comparison, two- terminal or three-terminal applications) in one module. The scheme can be upgraded or changed at any time. The L60 channel interface requires an external battery to drive inputs and outputs.

Page 173: Introduction To Ac Sources
5.2.2.1 Background The L60 is ordered with two CT/VT modules. If two breakers are involved in an application, the current must be summed externally. With two CT/VT modules, the L60 allows the connection of two breaker CTs directly to the relay, processing the currents individually for some functions and summing them for other functions by employing the sources mechanism.
Page 174 Sources, in the context of L60 relays, refer to the logical grouping of current and voltage signals such that one source contains all the signals required to measure the load or fault in a particular power apparatus. A given source can contain all or some of the following signals: three-phase currents, single-phase ground current, three-phase voltages and an auxiliary voltages from a single-phase VT for checking for synchronism.
Page 175 Upon startup, the CPU configures the settings required to characterize the current and voltage inputs, and it displays them in the appropriate section in the sequence of the banks (as described earlier) as follows for a maximum configuration: F1, F5, L1, L5, S1, and S5.

Page 184 This feature requires a CyberSentry software option. See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details. The EnerVista software provides the means to configure and authenticate the L60 access using either a server or the device. Access to functions depends on user role.
Page 185 When the "Device" button is selected, the L60 uses its local authentication database and not the RADIUS server to authenticate the user. In this case, it uses built-in roles (Administrator, Engineer, Supervisor, Operator, Observer, or Administrator and Supervisor when Device Authentication is disabled), as login accounts and the associated passwords are stored on the L60 device.

Page 195 Some customers prefer very low currents to display as zero, while others prefer the current to display even when the value reflects noise rather than the actual signal. The L60 applies a cut-off value to the magnitudes and angles of the measured currents.
Page 196: Clear Relay Records
Selected records can be cleared from user-programmable conditions with FlexLogic operands. Assigning user- programmable pushbuttons to clear specific records is a typical application for these commands. Since the L60 responds to rising edges of the configured FlexLogic operands, they must be asserted for at least 50 ms to take effect.

Page 198 5.3.4.3 Ethernet network topology The L60 has three Ethernet ports. Each Ethernet port must belong to a different network or subnetwork. Configure the IP address and subnet to ensure that each port meets this requirement. Two subnets are different when the bitwise AND operation performed between their respective IP address and mask produces a different result.

The delay in switching back ensures that rebooted switching devices connected to the L60, which signal their ports as active prior to being completely functional, have time to completely initialize themselves and become active. Once port 2 is active again, port 3 returns to standby mode.

Page 254 CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS File transfer by IEC 61850 The L60 supports file transfer by IEC 61850. The approach is as follows, using the SISCO AX-S4 61850 client software as an example. In the AX-S4 61850 Explorer window, click the Tools menu and access the SISCO File Transfer Utility.
Page 255 NUMBER: 0 The Trivial File Transfer Protocol (TFTP) can be used to transfer files from the L60 over a network. The L60 operates as a TFTP server. TFTP client software is available from various sources, including Microsoft Windows NT. The dir.txt file obtained from the L60 contains a list and description of all available files, for example event records and oscillography.
Page 256 0.0.0.0 The L60 can specify a maximum of five clients for its IEC 104 connections. These are IP addresses for the controllers to which the L60 can connect. A maximum of two simultaneous connections are supported at any given time.
Page 257 PTP, or SNTP, its time is overwritten by these three sources, if any of them is active. If the synchronization timeout occurs and none of IRIG-B, PTP, or SNTP is active, the L60 sets the invalid bit in the time stamp of a time-tagged message.
Page 258 Spontaneous transmission occurs as a response to cyclic Class 2 requests. If the L60 wants to transmit Class 1 data at that time, it demands access for Class 1 data transmission (ACD=1 in the control field of the response).
Page 259 FlexAnalog operands. The measurands sent are voltage, current, power, power factor, and frequency. If any other FlexAnalog is chosen, the L60 sends 0 instead of its value. Note that the power is transmitted in KW, not W. Measurands are transmitted as ASDU 3 or ASDU 9 (type identification value set to measurands I, respectively measurands II).

Commands are received as General Command (Type Identification 20). The user can configure the action to perform when an ASDU command comes. A list of available mappings is provided on the L60. This includes 64 virtual inputs (see the following table). The ON and OFF for the same ASDU command can be mapped to different virtual inputs.
Page 262: Real-Time Clock
Setup for IRIG-B is illustrated in the Installation chapter. For the Other protocols, whenever a time synchronization message is received through any of the active protocols, the L60 clock updates. However, given that IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 60870-5-104, Modbus, and DNP are low-accuracy time synchronization methods, avoid their use for synchronization when better accuracy time protocols, such as IRIG-B and PTP, are active in the system.
Page 263 See the Order Codes section in chapter 2 for details. The L60 supports the Precision Time Protocol (PTP) specified in IEEE Std 1588 2008 using the Power Profile (PP) specified in IEEE Std C37.238 2011. This enables the relay to synchronize to the international time standard over an Ethernet network that implements PP.
Page 264 When a clock on start-up discovers that it is “better” than the present grandmaster, it assumes the grandmaster role and the previous grandmaster reverts to slave. The L60 qualification mechanism accepts a potential master clock as a new grandmaster, when in a four-second interval it has received three announce messages from it, all better than the present grandmaster clock and better than any other announce in this interval.
Page 265 L60 clock is closely synchronized with the SNTP/ NTP server. It takes up to two minutes for the L60 to signal an SNTP self-test error if the server is offline.
Page 266: Fault Reports
 2:00 The L60 maintains two times: local time and Universal Coordinated Time (UTC). Local time can be provided by IRIG-B signals. UTC time is provided by SNTP servers. The real-time clock (RTC) and time stamps reported in historical records and communication protocols can be incorrect if the Local Time settings are not configured properly.

Page 567: Application Of Settings
8.1 87PC phase comparison element 8.1.1 Overview The L60 provides high-speed protection of transmission lines against all phase and ground faults when operated in the “mixed-excitation” mode. The term “mixed-excitation”, when applied to phase comparison, describes a scheme that first mixes different sequence quantities in a given proportion and phase angle, then performs a phase-comparison based on this mix.
Page 568 The L60 allows you to check and set channel symmetry without using an oscilloscope, by means of FlexLogic operands and applying the corresponding current to the relays, which in turn key the PLC and consequently measure MARK and SPACE signals on the oscillography.
Page 569: Settings Example
Different methods can be used. The L60 allows the customer to check and set phase delay without using an oscilloscope and by means of FlexLogic operands and applying the corresponding current to both relays. Oscillography shows the time difference (including PLC delay and line propagation time) between local and remote signals.
Page 570: Distance/Backup Supervision

Page 571: Lines With Tapped Transformers
LV bus fault can result in a loss of sensitivity. If the tapped transformer is a source of zero sequence infeed, then the L60 zero-sequence current removal has to be enabled as described in the next section.
Page 572: Transformer Load Currents
8.2.3 Transformer load currents The L60 can be applied on the line with a tapped transformer. Since the tapped line can be energized from one terminal only, or there can be a low current flowing through the line, the phase-comparison element must set to provide stability.
Page 573: Tractional Load
8.2.6 Tractional load Where tractional load is tapped from the line protected by the L60, significant and variable negative-sequence current can exist on the line, thereby not allowing sensitive FDL and FDH settings. On such lines, it is beneficial to detect faults based on change in the sequence components of the currents.
Page 574 2%. If an internal fault is detected, the challenge is to provide starting transmitting signals at both ends and to have enough operating quantity for arming FDH to operate and to allow tripping. L60 LINE PHASE COMPARISON SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL...
Page 575: Single-Pole Tripping Applications
DISTANCE/BACKUP SUPERVISION 8.2.8 Single-pole tripping applications The L60 provides functionality for single-pole tripping from 87PC, distance functions, or instantaneous overcurrent elements via the trip output element. 87PC can detect internal faults on the line but not faulted phases, since the phase currents are combined in one quantity.
Page 576: Phase Distance
The current supervision alone does not prevent maloperation in such circumstances. Keep in mind that the fuse failure element provided on the L60 needs some time to detect fuse fail conditions. This can 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 577: Ground Distance
Ground directional overcurrent functions available in the relay can be used in conjunction with the Zone 2 distance element to key the scheme and initiate its operation. This provides increased coverage for high-resistance faults. L60 LINE PHASE COMPARISON SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 8-11...
Page 578: Series Compensated Lines
This situation is encountered when it is desired to account for the zero sequence inter-circuit mutual coupling. This is not a problem for the ground distance elements in the L60 that do have a current reversal logic built into their design as part of the technique used to improve ground fault directionality.
Page 579 As the characteristics of sub-synchronous oscillations are in complex relations with fault and system parameters, no solid setting recommendations are given with respect to extra security margin for sub-synchronous oscillations. It is strongly recommended to use a power system simulator to verify the reach settings or to use an adaptive L60 feature for dynamic reach control.

Page 581: Two-Breaker Configuration
8.5.2 Two-breaker configuration The L60 has extra security when two CTs are brought into the relay individually and summed internally. Two currents are processed separately to derive the operating signal for each breaker, which is then used for fault detectors and the forming of positive and negative squares.

For example, if an ON-OFF transmitter were keyed on for a half-cycle and then off for a half-cycle, and so on, the remote receiver output can be on for more than a half-cycle and off for less than a half-cycle.

Page 608: Multi-Terminal Lines
For short transmission lines, the charging current is a small factor and can therefore be treated as an unknown error. In this application, the L60 can be deployed without voltage sensors and the line charging current is included as a constant term in the total variance, increasing the differential restraint current.
Page 609 Since the zero- sequence voltage is not available, the L60 cannot compensate for the zero sequence current. The compensation scheme continues to work with the breakers open, provided that the voltages are measured on the line- side of the breakers.
Page 610: L60 Signal Processing
The L60 samples currents and voltage inputs at a rate of 64 samples per cycle. Current samples are pre-filtered using band-pass Finite Response Filters (FIR), with a weighted average of signal samples in a selected data window, to remove the decaying DC component and low-frequency distortions.
Page 611 The L60 implementation of a phase comparison relay uses a pair of short-window FIR filters to derive the D-Q components while providing for extra transient filtering.

Page 613 The ‘pulse’ combination logic ensures security and dependability. In this respect, a distinction must be made between tripping and blocking schemes.

Page 617 The coincidence condition is driving an explicitly implemented integrator (summator). In the L60, the integrator counts up by 10 units if the coincidence input is logic 1, counts down by 5 counts if the coincidence input is momentarily logic 0, and counts down by 20 if the input is in logic 0 for extended periods of time.

Figure 9-27: Trip integration logic (relay COMTRADE record) The L60 can be programmed to perform an automatic check-back. Under normal system conditions, a relay can initiate transmission and modulate the analog signal to exchange small amounts of information. The ability to abort in cases of system faults is a key to successful deployment.
