  • Page 49: Measurements

    4.0 MEASUREMENTS Basic measurement quantities are calculated and updated every 1/4 cycle. These quantities include RMS Amperes and RMS Volts. Watts, VARs, VAs, Power Factor, all harmonic-based measurements (such fundamental-only quantities), Energy, Frequency, and Phase Angle are updated every cycle. Note: For all of the following measurements, it is important to keep in mind that the specific protocol used to access the data may affect the data that is available, or the format of that data.
  • Page 50: Power Factor (1-Cycle Update)

    are sampled simultaneously (including currents), these signals can be easily combined to form true Phase-to-Phase and Phase-to-Neutral differential measurements with extremely low amplitude and phase errors. It also allows accurate calculation of Bus-to-Bus differential voltages and angles. Each sample is corrected for offset and gain using factory calibration values stored in non-volatile memory on the board.
  • Page 51: Geometric Va Calculations

    In any connection type, the Total Watts and Total VARs is the arithmetic sum of the per- element Watts and VARs. The sign conventions are shown in Figure 7 (pg. 33). When used on 2-element systems, the reference phase voltage (typically phase B) input, is connected to the Neutral voltage input, and effectively causes one of the elements to be zero.
  • Page 52: Equivalent Va Calculations

    There is also a relationship to the Total Power Factor, which is described in Section 4.3. Total Power Factor calculations using the Arithmetic VA method will still indicate a "1" on a system with phase amplitude imbalance, but not with canceling leading and lagging loads. For example, on a system with a lagging load on one phase and an equal leading load on another phase, the value of the Arithmetic VAs will not change relative to a balanced system, but the Total Power Factor will be less than "1".
  • Page 53: Frequency (1-Cycle Update)

    4.6 Frequency (1-Cycle Update) Frequency is calculated every cycle for every input but the Auxiliary Voltages. The M87x monitors the change in Phase Angle per unit time using the Phase Angle measurement for the fundamental generated by the FFT. The System Frequency is the frequency of the input used for synchronizing the sampling rate (Section 3.2.2).
  • Page 54: Ampere And Fundamental Ampere Demand

    the traditional value of T is 15 minutes, although the M87x can accommodate other demand intervals (Section 4.7.7). The M87x generates a demand value using modern microprocessor technology in place of heating and cooling circuits, it is therefore much more accurate and repeatable over a wide range of input values.
  • Page 55: Power Demands (Total Watts, Vars, And Vas)

    4.7.3 Power Demands (Total Watts, VARs, and VAs) Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demands are calculated via the instantaneous measurement data. The Total VA Demand calculation type is based on the instantaneous Total VA calculation type (Section 4.4) Upon power-up, all Present Total Watt, VAR, and VA Demands are reset to the average of the stored Maximum and Minimum values.

    32-bit number, some protocols may place further restrictions on the Demand Interval due to limitations on numerical format. Please refer to the appropriate protocol manual for details. 4.8 Harmonic Measurements (1-Cycle Update) M87x instruments continually sample all inputs at 128 samples per cycle, and compute a 128-point Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) every cycle for each input.

    100 Amp load (if the Denominator was set at 100 Amps). In the M87x, Current Demand Distortion is implemented using Equation 3. The TDD equation is similar to Harmonic Distortion (Equation 2), except that the denominator in the equation is a user-defined number.

    (which is the denominator), and the result will be the actual RMS magnitude of the selected harmonic. Fundamental Volts and Amps can be used in conjunction to obtain Fundamental VAs, and when used with Displacement Power Factor can yield Fundamental Watts and Fundamental VARs.
  • Page 59: Resistance, Reactance, Impedance (1-Cycle Update)

    4.8.10 Resistance, Reactance, Impedance (1-Cycle Update) These measurements are calculated for each phase from the fundamental values of voltage and current. The Impedance value, combined with the voltage-to-current phase angle, gives the polar form of the impedance. The Resistance and Reactance represent the rectangular form of the Impedance.

  • Page 68: Triggering

    5.3 Triggering Triggers can be configured in the 70 Series to initiate several different actions: Waveform Recorders Disturbance Recorders Digital Outputs Virtual Outputs SOE Entries Resetting of various measurements (Demands, Energy, etc.) Up to 120 triggers can be specified, of the following types: 5.3.1 Threshold Trigger Any measurement can be used to trigger a Waveform Recorder or Disturbance Recorder, or create an entry in the SOE log.
  • Page 69 Configuration of Hysteresis Settings For example: Suppose an alarm contact is intended to close when the frequency exceeds 60.3 Hz. Frequency is generally regulated very tightly about 60 Hz, so except for the significant transients that the setting is intended to capture, it would not be unusual for the frequency to dwell for a prolonged time near 60.3 Hz, fluctuating by only an insignificant amount but crossing the threshold many times (see illustration below, on the right half of the trace).
  • Page 70: Digital Input Trigger

    Hysteresis may be used to constrain chatter in any of the Actions listed on the Recorder Triggers page (i.e. recorders, contacts, GOOSE messages, SOE Log entries, etc.) It may also be combined with a setting in the “Min Duration (ms)” column to prevent triggering on short-duration transients when a trigger might only be desired in connection with steady- state events;...
  • Page 71: Manual Trigger

    5.3.4 Manual Trigger Refer to the appropriate protocol manual for information. Manual Triggers may also be activated through BiView using Telnet, Zmodem, or under Modbus or DNP3 protocols (depending on what register set/ point list is chosen). When a manual trigger is initiated, it bypasses the standard trigger setup, and directly initiates the action specified by that command.
  • Page 72: Periodic Triggers

    Here, the first three conditions are logically “anded” together to drive Virtual Output 2. VO2, in turn, is configured to initiate a fault distance calculation on B1. Line to line fault distances are calculated when more than one of the A1, B1, C1 events are triggered. 5.3.8 Periodic Triggers Four independent periodic triggers are available that can be used to initiate all of the actions listed in section 5.3 above.

    point will transition from 0 to 1 at the timers scheduled activation. It will hold at 1 briefly and then return to 0. These 'Periodic Trigger' points can then be used to trigger any of the actions selected. 5.4 Recording The M87x has five different methods of recording data.
  • Page 74 user. If additional triggers occur within the post-trigger period, the waveform record will be extended for the selected number of post-trigger cycles. Optionally, the user can choose to disable re-triggering. There is a limit of 2000 cycles (approximately 33.3 seconds at 60Hz) for each waveform record.
  • Page 75: Default Frequency Setting For Waveform Recorder

    that selecting the 256 sample per cycle sampling rate disables all measurements associated with bus 2 voltages (Volts A2, B2, and C2) and auxiliary voltages (Volts Aux1- Gnd, Aux2-Gnd, and AuxDiff). Because the sampling rate is synchronized with the system frequency, the sample rate (in samples per second) will vary with frequency.

    power is removed from the M87x, the relay will revert to the default state. Assigning the digital outputs to indicate that a waveform record has been created must be performed by using the 70 Series Configurator. See Section 9 for information concerning output "Normally Open"...
  • Page 77: Indicating Disturbance Records With Digital Outputs

    Please note how the convention for determining time resolution in oscillography records (WR1, WR2) in samples per cycle is not relevant to long-time disturbance records (DR2, DR2), where RMS values are plotted using a sample rate measured in an integer number of cycles for each sample.
  • Page 78: Trend Recorder

    5.4.3 Trend Recorder The M87x stores the values of a user-configurable set of up to 230 parameters every log interval. The default setting of this interval is 0 minutes, which disables the Trend Recorder. This interval can be changed from 1 to 720 minutes (12 hrs.) in 1-minute increments.

    5.5.1a Introduction to FTP FTP protocol is a standard component of the Internet protocol suite and is used to transfer files between computer systems. Every Windows/Unix/Linux operating system contains an FTP Client program that allows simple access to FTP Servers such as the M87x. FTP is accessed from the command prompt (sometimes referred to as the DOS prompt).

Restart begins about 12 seconds after the file has been created. It is recommended that FTP be operated in passive mode.

These errors are calculated every IRIG frame (every second) and are accumulated into a sample buffer until the sample buffer is full.
  • Page 91: Methods Of Automatic Clock Adjustments

    If the M87x is connected to an IRIG master that is not IEEE-1344 compatible and the year reported by the M87x’s clock is incorrect, the IRIG Driver may also set the M87x’s day incorrectly (due to leap year) when it tries to synchronize the device time to the IRIG time. The time, however, will still synchronize correctly.
  • Page 92: Permanent Irig-B Source Connection

    5.7.6b Permanent IRIG-B Source Connection Having a permanently connected IRIG-B source provides the most accurate M87x clock. In addition to correcting the frequency for the crystal error, the M87x will constantly receive corrections to compensate for any drift that may still occur. This provides for a typical clock error of less than 10 microseconds.
  • Page 93: Frequency Lock Stage

    The M87x enters the Frequency Lock Mode after completing the first IRIG-B clock correction. The M87x’s clock is typically synchronized to within 1 millisecond of the true IRIG-B time after the Time Lock Stage is completed. 5.7.7c Frequency Lock Stage The M87x enters the Frequency Lock Stage of synchronization when it receives the third valid clock correction value from the IRIG-B interface.

    10.8.2 Transducer Input Scaling Configuration The floating point values for the Transducer Input points on all present Transducer Input Modules will appear in the M87x floating point database. By default, values for Transducer Inputs configured as voltage inputs will be in volts and values for Transducer Inputs configured as currents will be in milliamps.

Configuring the 4mA setting to report as 0 and the 20mA setting to report as 100 will scale the value in the M87x database to the primary units of the transducer.
  • Page 154: Appendix A - Cross Triggering

    APPENDIX A - CROSS TRIGGERING Cross-Triggering There are many possible uses for the Input / Output functions available from 70 Series Recorders, but Cross-Triggering deserves special attention since it is prerequisite to the application of distributed recording. Intelligent Electronic Devices (IEDs) like microprocessor-based relays or 70 Series Recorders are generally used to measure the electrical parameters associated with a particular load, such as a feeder for example.

  • Page 156 Example 1. Discrete Digital I/O: Please refer to Figure A1 for wiring, Figure A2 through A4 for configuration, and Figure 11, section 9.9 for the pin-out of the Digital I/O cards and internal resistor values that are not shown in Figure A1. Note: Standard Digital I/O cards (P30A and P31) incorporate an internal parallel current path on all digital outputs which conducts through a resistance even when the output contacts are open.
  • Page 157 resistor is required to prevent shorting (+) to (-) when digital outputs operate. It may be advisable, however, to place one pull-down resistor (R , in Figure A1) between the switched and negative conductors to prevent chatter on the inputs. Acceptable values for depend on the application, but something in the 100kΩ...
  • Page 158 Figure A 3 Figure A4 shows the action taken when a cross-trigger on Digital Input 5 is sensed. In general, receiving a cross-trigger from another device should have the same effect as triggering on something sensed directly by the IED. Figure A 4 ML0021 August 15, 2018...
  • Page 159 Example 2. Ethernet, using GOOSE: GOOSE is a function defined within the context of the IEC-61850 standard but there is no requirement to make use of any other aspect of 61850 just to use GOOSE for cross- triggering 70 Series IEDs. Due to the level of multi-vendor support for IEC-61850, cross- triggering between 70 Series IEDs, microprocessor based relays, and other devices may be an advantage of using GOOSE for cross-triggering.
  • Page 160 The following steps illustrate a typical configuration: 1. In the 70 Series Configurator, Figure A5 shows how any event of interest measured directly by an M871 is configured to initiate an oscillography recording and make an SOE Log entry. (Only Phase-A Amps is shown, but the Trigger window scrolls vertically and can hold up to 120 separate independent events.) Figure A 5 The condition “Waveform Recorder 1 Started”...
  • Page 161 Figure A 6 When a cross-trigger is received from another unit, it comes in the form of a GOOSE subscription (set up in the IED Configurator in step 7, below). GOOSE subscriptions are represented in the 70 Series Configurator by binary inputs that can be used to trigger WR1 and make an entry in the SOE Log.
  • Page 162 Figure A 8 Note: In order to be used for GOOSE publication, the Dataset must be defined under System\LLN0 as shown in Figure A9. Figure A 9 The second step in publication is defining a GOOSE message, Figure A10. Up to eight independent GOOSE publications may be defined for each device.
  • Page 163 Figure A 10 Each IED only needs to publish one GOOSE to cross-trigger any number of other devices. When setting up subscriptions, however, the device must subscribe to every other device from which a cross-trigger may be expected. For example, in a substation with four inter-triggered M871 units, each unit would publish one and subscribe to three GOOSE messages.
  • Page 164 Figure A 11 The IED Configurator makes it relatively simple to configure subscriptions when the MCL files for all devices are open at the same time and the GOOSE publications have already been configured on each of the other devices. See Figure A12. By clicking on the Browse button, a window appears allowing the user to select the status point (green dot shown in Figure A12).

  • Page 166 Example 3. Ethernet, using GSSE: The GSSE service, as defined by IEC-61850, is identical to what has been called GOOSE in connection with UCA2.0 in past years. In order to reduce confusion as far as possible, all previous references to GOOSE in the UCA context have been replaced by the expression GSSE in 70 Series documentation because IEC-61850 supersedes UCA as a communications standard.

Therefore, no deliberate step is necessary to re-initialize a soft bit, as was required for “Waveform Recorder 1 Started” in step 2 of Example 2.
