Page 20: 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 21: C53000-G1176-C156
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 22 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. Protection Data Depending on the version there are one or two protection data interfaces. Via these Interface (optional) interfaces the data for the teleprotection scheme and further information such as closing the local circuit breaker, other external trip commands coupled via binary...
Page 23: 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 24 Introduction In the event of a communication failure, if there is no possible reserve, the devices can automatically be switched to emergency operation using an integrated overcurrent time protection until communication is healthy again. This overcurrent time protection has three definite-time overcurrent stages and one inverse-time (IDMT) stage; a series of characteristics according to various standards is available for the inverse- time stage.
Page 25 Introduction Depending on the version ordered, further interfaces are on the rear side of the device. Thus a comprehensive communication can be built up with other digital operating control and storage systems: The service interface can be operated via data or fibre optic cables. Communication via modems is also possible.

Page 225 Functions When evaluating phase–phase loops, the sensitivity towards phase–phase faults is particularly high. In extensive compensated networks this selection is advantageous because it excludes pick-up as a result of single earth faults on principle. With two- and three-phase faults it automatically adapts to the prevailing infeed conditions, i.e. in the weak-infeed operation mode it becomes more current-sensitive, with strong in- feed and high load currents the pick-up threshold will be higher.

The parameter in address 1232 SOTF zone which determines the response during switching onto a short-circuit was already set as part of the general data of the dis- tance protection (Sub-section 6.2.3.2).
Page 262: Measures To Be Taken In Case Of Power Swings (Optional)
Functions Measures to Be Taken in Case of Power Swings (optional) Following dynamic events such as load jumps, short-circuits, reclose dead times or switching actions it is possible that the generators must realign themselves, in an os- cillatory manner, with the new load balance of the system. The distance protection registers large transient currents during the power swing and, especially at the electri- cal centre, small voltages (Figure 6-39).
Page 263 Functions short-circuits will result in the fast cancellation of the power swing block in the affected phases, thereby allowing the tripping of the Distance Protection. To detect a power swing, the rate of change of the impedance vector is measured. The measurement is started when the impedance vector enters the power swing measur- ing range PPOL (refer to Figure 6-40).
Page 264 Functions A power swing is detected, if during the last eight measuring cycles (corresponding to two periods), the continuity of the changing impedance vector is confirmed. In this way, slip frequencies of up to at least 7 Hz are detected. Fault impedance Power swing...
Page 265 Functions Trajectory In addition to these measures, a comparison of the three phases is done to Symmetry ensure that they are symmetrical. During a power swing condition in the single pole open condition only 2 of the three phases will have an impedance trajectory.
Page 266 Functions Trajectory stability When the impedance trajectory enters the PPOL during a swing condition the system must be in the area of steady state instability. In Figure 6-42 this corresponds to the lower half of the circle. All these conditions must be true for the generation of a power swing block condition. Once the power swing block condition is set it will remain picked up until the impedance vector leaves the power swing polygon (PPOL) unless a fault occurs during this time.

Functions Teleprotection Schemes with Distance Protection Purpose of Telepro- Short-circuits which occur on the protected line, beyond the first distance zone, can tection only be cleared selectively by the distance protection after a delay time. On line sec- tions that are shorter than the smallest sensible distance setting, short-circuits can also not be selectively cleared instantaneously.
Page 280: Method Of Operation
Functions Signal The pilot wire comparison, that is exclusively applied to short tie lines, enables the Transmission user to operate a pilot wire pair (pilot wires or control wires) with direct current to guar- antee the exchange of information between the line ends. Also the reverse interlocking Channels operates with DC control signals.

Principle The blocking scheme uses the transmission channel to send a block signal from one line end to the other. The signal is sent as soon as the protection function has detected a fault in reverse direction, optionally also directly after fault inception (jump detector via the dashed line in Figure 6-62).
Page 297 Functions Sequence Figure 6-63 shows the logic diagram of the blocking scheme for one line end. The relevant distance zone for this scheme is the overreach zone Z1B.

Page 302 Functions 6.6.1.10 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.
Page 303 Functions If there is no fault detection, the echo function causes the received signal to be sent back to the other line end as an “echo”, where it is used to initiate permissive tripping. The detection of the weak infeed and accordingly the requirement for an echo are combined in the central AND gate (Figure 6-67).

Functions Earth Fault Protection in Earthed Systems (optional) General In earthed systems, where extremely large fault resistance may exist during earth faults (e.g. overhead lines without earth wire, sandy soil, or high tower footing resist- ance) the fault detection of the distance protection will often not pick up because the resulting earth fault impedance could be outside the fault detection characteristic of the distance protection.

Functions 6.8.1.2 Directional Unblocking Scheme The following scheme is suited for conventional transmission media. Principle The unblocking method is a permissive scheme. The difference to the Directional Comparison Scheme (Sub-section 6.8.1.1) lies in that tripping is also possible when no permissive signal from the opposite line end is received. Accordingly it is mainly used on long lines where the signal is transmitted via the protected feeder by means of power line carrier (PLC) and the attenuation in the signal transmission path at the fault location can be so severe that reception of the signal from the opposite line end...

Functions 6.13 Earth Fault Detection in Non-Earthed Systems 6.13.1 Method of Operation General In systems whose starpoint is either non-earthed or earthed through an arc suppres- sion coil (Petersen coil), single phase earth faults will not be detected by the short cir- cuit protection, since no significant earth fault current flows.

Page 378: Automatic Reclosure Function (Optional)
Functions 6.14 Automatic Reclosure Function (optional) Experience shows that about 85 % of the arc faults on overhead lines are extinguished automatically after being tripped by the protection. The line can therefore be reclosed. Reclosure is performed by an automatic reclosure function (AR). An example of the normal time sequence of a double-shot reclosure is shown in Figure 6-101.
Page 379: Method Of Operation
Functions 6.14.1 Method of Operation The integrated automatic reclosure circuit allows up to 8 reclosure attempts. The first four interrupt cycles may operate with different parameters (action and dead times, single/three-pole). The parameters of the fourth cycle also apply for the fifth cycle and onwards.
Page 380 Functions Mixed Lines On mixed lines with cables and overhead lines, it is possible to use the distance zone Overhead Line/ signals for distinguishing between cable and overhead line faults to a certain extent. The automatic reclosure can then be blocked by appropriate signals generated by Cable means of the user-programmable logic functions (CFC) if there is a fault in the cable section.
Page 381 Functions be the first cycle that is executed) it is possible to determine which reclose cycles are executed depending on the time used by the protection function to trip. Example 1: 3 cycles are set. At least the first cycle is configured to start the recloser (allowed to be the first cycle that is carried out).
Page 382 Functions cycles. If blocking takes place while the cycle concerned is already running, this leads to aborting of the reclosure, i.e. no reclosure takes place even if other valid cycles have been parameterized. Internal blocking signals, with a limited duration, arise during the course of the reclose cycles: The reclaim time T-RECLAIM is initiated along with every automatic reclosure com- mand.

Page 385 Functions reclaim time is started. If the reclosure is blocked during the dead time following a single-pole trip, optional immediate three-pole tripping can take place (Forced Three- pole Trip, page 207). If the fault is cleared (successful reclosure), the reclaim time expires and all functions return to their quiescent state.
Page 386 Functions a) EV. FLT. MODE blocks AR : The reclosure is blocked as soon as an sequential fault is detected. Tripping as a result of the sequential fault is three-pole. This applies irrespective of whether three- pole cycles are permitted or not. There are no further reclosure attempts; the auto- matic reclosure function is blocked dynamically (see also above under subtitle “Re- close Block”, page 191).

Page 389 Functions The close command can be transmitted by a teleprotection scheme using the protec- tion interfaces (ordering variant). When the annunciation AR Remote Close is out- put, this information is transmitted at the same time to the remote end via the protec- tion data interface.
Page 390 Functions Depending on what the external recloser device requires, the three single-pole outputs (F.No 512 , 513 , 514 ) may also be combined to one “single-pole tripping” output; the F.No 515 provides the “three-pole tripping” signal to the external device. If only three-pole reclosure takes place, general starting (F.No 501 , if required by the external reclosure device) and the trip signals (F.No 511 ) from 7SA6 (see figure 6- 107) usually suffice.

Page 393 Functions If, on the other hand, the internal automatic reclosure function is controlled by the pickup (only possible with three-pole tripping: 110 Trip mode = 3pole only ), the phase-segregated fault detection (pickup) signals must be connected from the exter- nal protection.
Page 394 Functions If phase segregated auxiliary contacts of the circuit-breaker are connected, a three- pole coupling by the 7SA6 is guaranteed when more than one CB pole is tripped. This requires setting of the forced three pole coupling (see section 6.14.2 under subtitle “Forced Three-pole Trip”, page 207).
Page 395: Setting The Function Parameters
Functions 6.14.2 Setting the function parameters If no reclosure is required on the feeder to which the Distance Protection 7SA6 is ap- General plied (e.g. for cables, transformers, motors or similar), the automatic reclosure function must be removed during configuration of the device (see Section 5.1, address 133 ). The automatic reclosure function is then completely disabled, i.e.
Page 396 Functions A few seconds are generally sufficient. In regions with frequent storms and thunder- storms a shorter reclaim time is advisable to reduce the risk of a final trip due to re- peated lightning strikes or cable flashovers.
