As such, no further functional tests are required. The B90 performs a number of continual self-tests and takes the necessary action in case of any major errors (see the Relay Self-tests section in chapter 7). However, it is recommended that B90 maintenance be scheduled with other system maintenance.
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.

8.2.1 DYNAMIC BUS REPLICA MECHANISM The bus differential zones of the B90 allow for protecting bus sections that include circuits that are switchable between dif- ferent sections. Proper relay operation is achieved by associating a status signal with each input current. This mechanism is referred to as a dynamic bus replica.
Figure 8–2: BIASED OPERATING CHARACTERISTIC The higher slope used by the B90 acts as an actual percentage bias regardless of the value of the restraining signal. This is so because the boundary of the operating characteristic in the higher slope region is a straight line intersecting the origin of the ‘differential - restraining’...

8.3 DIFFERENTIAL PRINCIPLE 8.3.3 ENHANCED SECURITY In order to enhance the performance of the B90, the differential characteristic is divided into two regions having diverse operating modes as shown in following diagram. The first region applies to comparatively low differential currents and has been introduced to deal with CT saturation on low- current external faults.
8.4.1 CURRENT DIRECTIONAL PROTECTION For better security, the B90 uses the current directional protection principle to dynamically supervise the main current differ- ential function. The directional principle is in effect permanently for low differential currents (region 1 in Figure 0–1: Two Regions of Differential Characteristic) and is switched on dynamically for large differential currents (Region 2 in the same figure) by the saturation detector (see section 8.5: Saturation Detector) upon detecting CT saturation.
8.5.1 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 of that, 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 restraining signal develops rapidly.
Figure 8-10 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. Figure 8-11 presents the same signals but for the case of an internal fault. The B90 trips in 10 ms (fast form-C output con- tact).

A combination of very high residual magnetism and a DC component with a long time constant may saturate a given CT even with the AC current below the suggested value of the lower breakpoint.

LAN environment. Actual MMS protocol services are mapped to IEC 61850 abstract ser- vices in IEC 61850-8-1. The B90 relay supports IEC 61850 server services over TCP/IP. The TCP/IP profile requires the B90 to have an IP address to establish communications. These addresses are located in the ...
C.2.2 GGIO1: DIGITAL STATUS VALUES The GGIO1 logical node is available in the B90 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.
C.2.6 MMXN: ANALOG MEASURED VALUES A limited number of measured analog values are available through the MMXN logical nodes. Each MMXN logical node provides data from a B90 current and voltage terminal. There is one MMXN available for each configurable terminal (programmed in the ...

C.3.4 LOGICAL DEVICE NAME The logical device name is used to identify the IEC 61850 logical device that exists within the B90. 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.
A built-in TCP/IP connection timeout of two minutes is employed by the B90 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 B90. 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 B90 will use the source Ether- net MAC address as the destination, with the multicast bit set.
Page 438
The B90 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.
Page 439
REMOTE IN 1 ITEM item to remote input 1. Remote input 1 can now be used in FlexLogic equations or other settings. The B90 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.
GSSE and GOOSE messages must have multicast destination MAC addresses. By default, the B90 is configured to use an automated multicast MAC scheme. If the B90 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.
The B90 can be configured for IEC 61850 via the EnerVista UR Setup software as follows. An ICD file is generated for the B90 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 B90 settings file when importing an SCD file, all unchanged settings will preserve the same values in the new settings file.
(which also includes SSD, CID and SCD files). The ICD file describes the capabilities of an IED and consists of four major sections: • Header • Communication • IEDs • DataTypeTemplates GE Multilin B90 Low Impedance Bus Differential System C-13...
Page 444
Furthermore, it defines the capabilities of an IED in terms of communication services offered and, together with its LNType, instantiated data (DO) and its default or configuration values. There should be only one IED section in an ICD since it only describes one IED. C-14 B90 Low Impedance Bus Differential System GE Multilin...
