Section 8 1MRK 504 163-UUS A Impedance protection The out-of-step condition of a generator can be caused by different reasons. Sudden events in an electrical power system such as large changes in load, fault occurrence or slow fault clearance, can cause power oscillations, that are called power swings. In a non-recoverable situation, the power swings become so severe that the synchronism is lost: this condition is called pole slipping.
Section 8 1MRK 504 163-UUS A Impedance protection • Stator windings are under high stress due to electrodynamic forces. • The current levels during an out-of-step condition can be higher than those during a three-phase fault and, therefore, there is significant torque impact on the generator-turbine shaft.

Section 25 1MRK 504 163-UUS A Requirements Section 25 Requirements 25.1 Current transformer requirements IP15171-1 v2 M11609-3 v2 The performance of a protection function will depend on the quality of the measured current signal. Saturation of the current transformers (CTs) will cause distortion of the current signals and can result in a failure to operate or cause unwanted operations of some functions.

80% have been considered when CT requirements have been decided for ABB IEDs. Even in the future this level of remanent flux probably will be the maximum level that will be considered when decided the CT requirements.
VHR type CTs (i.e. with new material) to be used together with ABB protection IEDs. However, this may result in unacceptably big CT cores, which can be difficult to manufacture and fit in available space.
Section 25 1MRK 504 163-UUS A Requirements acceptable at all maximum remanence has been considered for fault cases critical for the security, for example, faults in reverse direction and external faults. Because of the almost negligible risk of additional time delays and the non-existent risk of failure to operate the remanence have not been considered for the dependability cases.
CT (TPZ) is not well defined as far as the phase angle error is concerned. If no explicit recommendation is given for a specific function we therefore recommend contacting ABB to confirm that the non remanence type can be used. The CT requirements for the different functions below are specified as a rated equivalent limiting secondary e.m.f.
