  • Page 18: Overall Operation

    Introduction Overall Operation ® The numerical Distance Protection SIPROTEC 7SA6 is equipped with a powerful 32 Bit microprocessor. This provides fully numerical processing of all functions in the device, from the acquisition of the measured values up to the output of commands to the circuit breakers.
  • Page 19 Introduction A voltage measuring input is provided for each phase–earth voltage. A further voltage input (U ) may optionally be used to measure either the displacement voltage (e–n– voltage) or any other voltage U (for overvoltage protection). The analogue signals are then routed to the input amplifier group IA.
  • Page 20 Introduction A battery backed clock is always provided and can be synchronized via a synchronization signal with IRIG-B (GPS via satellite receiver) or DCF 77. Additional interface modules provide the option to carry out further communication protocols. Power Supply The 7SA6 can be supplied with any of the common power supply voltages. Transient dips of the supply voltage which may occur during short-circuit in the power supply system, are bridged by a capacitor (see Technical Data, Sub-section 10.1.2).
  • Page 21: Applications

    Introduction Applications ® The numerical Distance Protection SIPROTEC 7SA6 is a fast and selective protection device for overhead lines and cables with single- and multi-ended infeeds in radial, ring or any type of meshed systems with insulation ratings. The system starpoint can be earthed, resonant-earthed or isolated.
  • Page 22 Introduction For the rapid location of the damage to the line after a short-circuit, a fault locator is integrated which also may compensate for the influence of a parallel line and load. Messages and A series of operating messages provides information about conditions in the power Measured Values;...
  • Page 23: Features

    Introduction Features • Powerful 32-bit microprocessor system. • Complete digital processing of measured values and control, from the sampling and digitilization of measured values to close and trip decisions for the circuit breaker. • Complete galvanic and reliable separation between the internal processing circuits of the 7SA6 and the external measurement, control, and DC supply circuits because of the design of the analog input transducers, binary inputs and outputs, and the DC converters.
  • Page 24: Scope Of Functions

    Introduction Scope of Functions ® The numerical Distance Protection SIPROTEC 7SA6 has the following functions (sometimes dependent on the order variant): • Protection for all types of short-circuit in systems with earthed, resonant-earthed or Distance Protection isolated star point; • Different pickup schemes enable the user to adapt the distance protection system to different network conditions and user’s requirements: overcurrent pickup, voltage and angular-controlled pickup or impedance starting (with polygonal angle-dependent characteristeric) can be selected;...
  • Page 25 Introduction • Differential connections (release or blocking schemes, with separate overreach zone or directional pickup) • Pilot protection / reverse interlocking (with direct voltage for local connections or extremely short lines) • All lines are suited for 2 or 3 ends; •...
  • Page 26 • Stub protection: additional stage for fast tripping of faults between the current transformer and circuit breaker (when the isolator switching status feed back is available); particularly suited to sub-stations with circuit breaker arrangements. • Fast tripping for switch-on-to-fault conditions; High Current Fast Switch-on-to-Fault •...
  • Page 27 Introduction Voltage Overvoltage and undervoltage detection with different stages Protection • Two overvoltage stages for the phase-earth voltages, with common time delay (optional) • Two overvoltage stages for the phase-phase voltages, with common time delay • Two overvoltage stages for the symmetrical positive sequence system of the voltages, with a time delay each •...

    Functions 6.4.1.10 Transient Blocking In the overreach schemes, the transient blocking provides additional security against erroneous signals due to transients caused by clearance of an external fault or by fault direction reversal during clearance of a fault on a parallel line. The principle of transient blocking scheme is that following the incidence of an external fault, the formation of a release signal is prevented for a certain (settable) time.

    Functions 6.11 Earth Fault Detection in Non-earthed Systems 6.11.1 Method of Operation General In systems whose starpoint is either non-earthed or earthed through an arc suppression coil (Petersen coil), single phase earth faults will not be detected by the short circuit protection, since no significant earth fault current flows. Furthermore, since network operation is not immediately affected by an earth fault (the voltage triangle is maintained, Figure 6-88) rapid disconnection is not normally desired.
  • Page 342 Functions Sensitive Earth The direction of the earth fault can be determined from the direction of the earth fault Fault Directional current in relation to the displacement voltage. The only restriction is that the active or Determination reactive current components must be available with sufficient magnitude at the point of measurement.
  • Page 343 Functions Since the active and reactive component of the current – not the power – determine the earth fault directional decision, these current components are calculated from the power components. Thus for determination of the direction of the earth fault, active and reactive components of the earth fault current as well as the direction of the active and reactive power are evaluated.

    Functions 6.16 Circuit Breaker Failure Protection 6.16.1 Method of Operation General The circuit breaker failure protection provides rapid back-up fault clearance, in the event that the circuit breaker fails to respond to a trip command from a feeder protection. Whenever e.g. a short-circuit protection relay of a feeder issues a trip command to the circuit breaker, this is repeated to the breaker failure protection (Figure 6-111).
