Before energising the equipment it must be earthed using the protective earth terminal, or the appropriate termination of the supply plug in the case of plug connected equipment. Omitting or disconnecting the equipment earth may cause a safety hazard. The recommended minimum earth wire size is 2.5 mm , unless otherwise stated in the technical data section of the product documentation.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 1 of 27 Section 1. GENERAL The Quadramho has been developed for use on medium to high voltage transmission and distribution lines where traditionally switched distance schemes have been used. The relay is a full 3 zone distance scheme which eliminates the need for starting and switching circuits, but which remains as compact as a switched relay because it employs modern components and circuit techniques.
Page 18
SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 2 of 27 Section 4. CHOICE OF CHARACTERISTIC The Type A (mho) relay is suitable for protecting most lines, where their length and source impedances are such that the resulting shaped Zone 1 characteristics provide the required resistive coverage.
Page 19
SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 3 of 27 be the sum of the protected line impedance, plus, twice the impedance of the adjacent line to the fault. If the Zone 2 reach is set to cover 50% of the adjacent line impedance, then in this parallel infeed case, Zone 2 will effectively cover 25% of the adjacent line.
Page 20
SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 4 of 27 is ganged to the Zone 3 setting. This situation is only likely to arise on long lines where the type A (mho) relay will be in use. Full advantage will need to be taken of the Zone 3 and power swing blocking lenticular facility in order to avoid load encroachment problems.
Page 21
SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 5 of 27 Section 11. CHOICE OF ASPECT RATIO (LENTICULAR ZONE 3 CHARACTERISTIC) The Zone 3 aspect ratio of the type A (mho) relay will need to be adjusted when it is envisaged that there will be load encroachment problems on the Zone 3, or power swing blocking starter characteristic for a long line application.

Page 23
SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 7 of 27 For ground faults on multiple-earthed systems, it is possible, due to healthy phase current levels, for the magnitude of the greatest phase difference current to be larger than the neutral current at the relaying point. It is extremely unlikely, however, for the ratio of these two currents to exceed the level of 10, which would need to be reached before the low-set neutral detector failed to operate for a ground fault.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888B QUADRAMHO Chapter 1 Page 9 of 27 • For standard POR schemes, fast clearance will not occur for all faults along the protected line section if there is weak or no infeed at one terminal. It is possible with Quadramho to switch in a weak infeed feature which will allow aided tripping of the strong infeed relay and three phase tripping of the weak infeed relay.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 1 of 74 Section 1. INTRODUCTION The Quadramho protection scheme, has been designed to satisfy the demand for a cost effective distance relay for medium and high voltage transmission and distribution lines. The relay is a high performance full scheme design having many advantages over the switched relays traditionally used in this application.
Page 64
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 2 of 74 Section 2. MAIN FEATURES Full scheme 3 Zone distance relay with 18 measuring elements. Characteristic shapes to suit all line lengths and fault levels. Fast operating times over a very wide range of fault conditions. Digital synchronous polarising for close-up 3 phase faults.
Page 65
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 3 of 74 Section 3. MECHANICAL LAYOUT In order to ensure that the distance protection is unaffected by conditions of severe high frequency interference, such as can occur in a high voltage substation, certain precautions have been taken in designing the physical layout.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 4 of 74 Section 4. MODULE DESCRIPTIONS To provide the user with a thorough understanding of the operating principle of the relay and the function of the individual modules within the relay, the following sub- sections describe the operating functions of each module.
Page 67
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 5 of 74 The time delay of 26 to 36ms between fault inception and signal transfer is sufficient to allow fast tripping to occur, if electrical conditions permit, before the intervention of the filters. If fast tripping does not occur, the 26 to 36ms delay is long enough for the transient errors of the band pass filters, caused by the collapsing voltage, to have decayed away before signal transfer to the band pass outputs.

These have a very fast reset time and are connected so as to block comparator operation when the line is de-energised, as shown in Figure 55. The actual blocking operation is performed under software control in the scheme logic module.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 44 of 74 5.10 Single pole tripping The level detectors are also beneficial when single pole tripping of the circuit breakers is required when using line VTs. Following a single phase to ground fault and a single pole trip, the output of the ground fault comparator is blocked by the resetting of the relevant phase current level detector and the comparator is forced to count down by the relevant pole dead signal.

Two separate ferromagnetic cores are used, each with an air gap to minimise the reluctance of the magnetic circuit. The flux summation occurs on core 2. The constant flux originates from the current flowing in primary 2.

It is necessary to seal in the blocking action, since otherwise if a ground fault were to occur on the transmission line later, the would reset the VTS.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 54 of 74 5.16.25 Permissive overreaching scheme (POR) The overreaching directional Zone 2 elements are used to send a signal (85X–1 and 85X–2) to the remote end of the feeder. The Zone 2 elements permit tripping on receipt of a channel signal (via opto isolator input CRX) and in this way, instantaneous tripping via the Zone 2 elements will only occur for internal faults.
Page 117
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 55 of 74 After the 10ms time delay, a signal is sent, provided that at least one of the voltage level detectors has reset, which confirms a fault condition. Since a fast time of 10ms is not desirable for tripping of the local end, a time delay of 60ms is selected for local tripping and after this delay the trip relay is energised, after ensuring that at least one of the voltage level detectors has reset.
Page 118
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 56 of 74 In practice a time delay on pick up for the tripping signal is required for faults detected by the Zone 2 elements. This is to allow time for a blocking signal to be sent from the remote end, should it prove necessary, and to be received at the local end.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 2 Page 57 of 74 iii) prevent the power swing blocking logic (via the pole dead logic) from operating during the first 240ms immediately following line energisation, when it is undesirable to prevent tripping. b) Signal receive opto isolator. This is energised from the signalling channel and is only effective if a signalling scheme has been selected.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 5 Page 10 of 24 If the polarising quantities are not correct or if the voltage filters are in initially, times may increase by 10 – 15ms. Times on 60HZ are approximately 10% faster. The operation times should be checked for each phase-ground and each phase- phase element.
Page 231
SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 5 Page 11 of 24 These impedances must be prepared as A–B phase faults. The boundary may be determined either by momentarily applying the fault or by gradually decreasing the impedance until the voltmeter reading fails. For the reverse reach an additional tolerance of ±15% is allowed.

SERVICE MANUAL R5888C QUADRAMHO Chapter 8 Page 1 of 5 Section 1. SPECIAL VARIATIONS OF QUADRAMHO Due to the nature of construction of Quadramho, all features are supplied as standard and consequently few variations in hardware are possible. However, a number of special schemes have been developed for various customers and these are implemented by change in the EPROM in module 4 (RCL10).
