    Manual MRS1 GB 1. Introduction and application The MRS1 relay is a negative sequence protection relay with universal application. It serves for negative sequence protection of three-phase generators. With a large number of different tripping characteristics and adjustment possibilities, the tripping characteristic can be made suitable for al- most every type of generator with regard to its special thermal time-constant.

  • Page 8: Working Principle

    Digital circuits The essential part of the MRS1 relay is a powerful microcontroller. All of the operations, from the analog digital convertion to the relay trip decision, are carried out by the microcontroller digitally. The relay program is located in an EPROM (Electrically Programmable Read-Only-Memory).

    Usual values are approx. 10 - 15 % of the load which is permissible with symmetrical load. The negative sequence relay MRS1 has a large number of adjustable tripping characteristics. Protection of almost every type of generator is thereby possible.

    (Fig. 4.1). Figure 4.2: Three-phase system with unbalanced load Fig. 4.2 shows the current vectors of an asymmetrically loaded generator. The MRS1 relay forms the negative-sequence system by rotation and adding of the current vectors. Tripping takes place according to the adjusted tripping-characteristic.
  • Page 11 The functional relationship is described graphically in chapter 7.4. In case of an occurrence of un- balanced-load, the thermal load of the generator prior to it, is taken into account. Should after a pickup of MRS1 relay, the I2s value drop, the time elapsed is calculated backwards exponentially. DOK-TD-MRS1 Rev.A...
  • Page 12 The time-constant T for the selection of the tripping characteristic can be calculated as follows: = 60 s / 0.16 = 375 s  360 s T = K1 / K The adjustable time-constant on the MRS1 relay amounts to 360 s. For the warning stage I , a somewhat lower value than I (e.g.

    Test leads and tools 6.4.2 Example of test circuit for MRS1 relay For testing MRS1 relays, you need usually a three phase current test circuit with adjustable phase shifting to simulate various asymmetrical system conditions. Yet you can also use a single-phase test circuit.
  • Page 17: Checking The Operating And Resetting Values Of The Relay

    By using an RMS-metering instrument, a greater deviation may be observed if the test current contains harmonics. Because the MRS1 relay measures only the fundamental component of the input signals. The harmonics will be rejected using a DFFT-digital filter. Whereas the RMS- metering instrument measures the RMS-value of the input signals.

    6.4.6 Checking the extern blocking and reset functions By MRS1 relays, the trip element will be inhibited by extern blocking input. To test the blocking function apply auxiliary supply voltage to extern blocking input of the relay (terminals E8/D8). Inject a test current which could cause a tripping.
