GROUPED ELEMENTS
5
The power swing detect element provides both power swing blocking and out-of-step tripping functions. The element
measures the positive-sequence apparent impedance and traces its locus with respect to either two or three user-
selectable operating characteristic boundaries. Upon detecting appropriate timing relations, the blocking and/or tripping
indications are given through FlexLogic operands. The element incorporates an adaptive disturbance detector. This
function does not trigger on power swings, but is capable of detecting faster disturbances—faults in particular—that can
occur during power swings. Operation of this dedicated disturbance detector is signaled via the
operand.
The power swing detect element asserts two operands intended for blocking selected protection elements on power
swings:
POWER SWING BLOCK
POWER SWING UN/BLOCK
swing. The
POWER SWING UN/BLOCK
respond to faults during power swing conditions.
Different protection elements respond differently to power swings. If tripping is required for faults during power swing
conditions, some elements can be blocked permanently (using the
blocked and dynamically unblocked upon fault detection (using the
