F.No. 05841 „REF U0> releas." must appear. When performing the test, keep in
mind that the zero voltage is calculated from the three phase voltages and converted
on the secondary side to the phase-to-phase voltage (equivalent to √3 U0). The value
thus obtained is the same as for a broken delta winding.
If the above measurement have been successfully performed, and the measured
phase currents were plausible, it can be assumed that the current measurement works
correctly. You only need to check the correct setting in the protection function (address
2102 = REF I> BLOCK). The pickup values are checked by injecting a current by
means of some secondary test equipment (CTs need not be disconnected).
• After completion of the tests, disconnect the test source and the protected object
(shut down generator)
• If parameters have been changed for the tests, restore the settings required for op-
eration.
• After completion of the earth fault protection tests, switch the earth current differen-
tial protection to be operative.
The voltage circuits of the machine are checked to ensure the correct cabling, polarity,
phase sequence, transformer ratio etc. of the voltage transformers - not to check
individual protection functions of the device.
When checking the voltage transformers, particular attention should be paid to the
open delta windings because these windings may only be earthed in one phase.
Set the overvoltage protection function to about 110 % of the rated generator voltage
and give the trip on excitation.
Switch frequency protection (address 4201) and overflux protection (address 4301)
to Block relay.
Check in the unexcited condition of the machine with the help of remanent voltages,
that all short-circuit bridges are removed.
The checks of all voltage transformer circuits (protection, measuring, metering etc.)
are carried out with about 30 % of the rated transformer voltage. Tests with generator
voltages of more than 30 % are only required when the idle characteristic is measured
for the first time.
The measuring circuit supervision of the rotor earth fault protection (see below) can be
checked when testing the voltage circuits, or after the synchronization.
Read out voltages in all three phases in the operational measured values. They can
be compared with the actual voltages. The voltage of the positive sequence system
U
must be approximately the same as the indicated phase voltages. If this is not, the
1
voltage transformer connections are incorrect (crossovers).
The phase rotation must conform with the configured phase sequence (address 0271
PHASE SEQ. under Power System Data 1); if it does not, an indication "Fail Ph.
