    The B90 Low Impedance Bus Differential System is a microprocessor-based architecture that provides protection and metering for busbars with up to 24 feeders. The B90 protection system is a centralized architecture built on one B90 IED as per requirements of a particular application. The IED is a full-featured B90 and as such can be accessed and programmed individually.

    2.3 Order codes A B90 protection system consists of several UR-series B90 IEDs as per user needs and system configuration. At least three IEDs are required to provide differential and other protection functions for phases A, B, and C of the busbar. The fourth IED is required for breaker failure functionality and isolator status monitoring as well as extra input and output capability.
  • Page 20 B90 IEDs. The B90 is provided with an option of protecting 8, 16, or 24-feeder busbars. When ordered as an eight-feeder protection system, the B90 is configurable for up to eight-input bus differential, regardless of the number of physical current inputs available in the B90 IEDs.

    LOW BPNT 9.3.3 Enhanced security To enhance the performance of the B90, the differential characteristic is divided into two regions having diverse operating modes, as shown in following figure. The first region applies to comparatively low differential currents and has been introduced to deal with CT saturation on low-current external faults.
  • Page 442: Directional Principle

    9.4 Directional principle 9.4.1 Current directional protection For better security, the B90 uses the current directional protection principle to dynamically supervise the main current differential function. The directional principle is in effect permanently for low differential currents (region 1 in the Two Regions of Differential Characteristic figure) and is switched on dynamically for large differential currents (region 2 in the same figure) by the saturation detector (see the Saturation Detector section) upon detecting CT saturation.
  • Page 443: Saturation Detector

    9.5.1 CT saturation detection The saturation detector of the B90 takes advantage of the fact that any CT operates correctly for a short period of time, even under very large primary currents that would subsequently cause a very deep saturation. As a result, in the case of an external fault, the differential current stays very low during the initial period of linear operation of the CTs while the B90 LOW IMPEDANCE BUS DIFFERENTIAL SYSTEM –...
  • Page 444 This must be kept in mind when setting the characteristic as its parameters must retain their original meaning. The operation of the saturation detector is available as the FlexLogic operand BUS 1(4) SAT A/B/C. B90 LOW IMPEDANCE BUS DIFFERENTIAL SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL...
  • Page 445: Output Logic And Examples

    For high differential signals, the directional principle is included only if demanded by the saturation detector (dynamic 1- out-of-2 / 2-out-of-2 mode). Typically, the directional principle is slower, and by avoiding using it when possible, the B90 gains speed.

    The first of the following figures presents the bus currents and the most important logic signals for the case of an external fault. Despite very fast and severe CT saturation, the B90 remains stable. The second figure presents the same signals but for the case of an internal fault. The B90 trips in 10 ms (fast form-C output contact).
