CHAPTER 5: SETTINGS
The synchronism check function supervises the paralleling of two parts of a system that are to be joined by the closure of
a circuit breaker. The synchrocheck elements are typically used at locations where the two parts of the system are
interconnected through at least one other point in the system.
Synchrocheck verifies that the voltages (V1 and V2) on the two sides of the supervised circuit breaker are within set limits
of magnitude, angle, and frequency differences. The time that the two voltages remain within the admissible angle
difference is determined by the setting of the phase angle difference ΔΦ and the frequency difference ΔF (slip frequency). It
can be defined as the time it takes the voltage phasor V1 or V2 to traverse an angle equal to 2 × ΔΦ at a frequency equal
to the frequency difference ΔF. This time is calculated by:
where
ΔΦ is phase angle difference in degrees
ΔF is frequency difference in Hz
If one or both sources are de-energized, the synchrocheck programming can allow for closing of the circuit breaker using
undervoltage control to bypass the synchrocheck measurements (dead source function).
— This setting selects the source for voltage V1 (see the Notes section that follows).
SYNCHK1 V1 SOURCE
— Selects the source for voltage V2, which must not be the same as used for the V1 (see Notes).
