    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 512: 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 513: 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.

    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.

    The L90 relay supports IEC 61850 server services over both TCP/IP and TP4/CLNP (OSI) communication protocol stacks. The TP4/CLNP profile requires the L90 to have a network address or Network Service Access Point (NSAP) to establish a communication link. The TCP/IP profile requires the L90 to have an IP address to establish communications. These addresses are located in the menu.
  • Page 678: Server Data Organization

    C.2.2 GGIO1: DIGITAL STATUS VALUES The GGIO1 logical node is available in the L90 to provide access to as many 128 digital status points and associated time- stamps and quality flags. The data content must be configured before the data can be used. GGIO1 provides digital status points for access by clients.
  • Page 679: Mmxu: Analog Measured Values

    A limited number of measured analog values are available through the MMXU logical nodes. Each MMXU logical node provides data from a L90 current and voltage source. There is one MMXU available for each con- figurable source (programmed in the menu).
  • Page 680 The protection elements listed above contain start (pickup) and operate flags. For example, the start flag for PIOC1 is PIOC1.ST.Str.general. 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.
  • Page 681: Server Features And Configuration

    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 682: 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 684 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.

    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 686: Gsse Id And Goose Id Settings

    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 687: 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.

    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 689: 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 >...
