1. Application

The REG670 is used for protection, control and

monitoring of generators and generator-transformer

blocks from relatively small units up to the largest

generating units. The IED has a comprehensive

function library, covering the requirements for most

generator applications. The large number of analog

inputs available enables, together with the large

functional library, integration of many functions in

one IED. In typical applications two units can

provide total functionality, also providing a high

degree of redundancy. REG670 can as well be used

for protection and control of shunt reactors.

Stator ground fault protection, both traditional 95%

as well as 100% injection and 3rd harmonic based

are included. When the injection based protection is

used, 100% of the machine stator winding,

including the star point, is protected under all

operating modes. The 3rd harmonic based 100%

stator earth fault protection uses 3rd harmonic

differential voltage principle. Injection based 100%

stator ground fault protection can operate even

when machine is at standstill. Well proven

algorithms for pole slip, underexcitation, rotor

ground fault, negative sequence current

protections, and so on, are included in the IED.

The generator differential protection in the REG670

adapted to operate correctly for generator

applications where factors as long DC time

constants and requirement on short trip time have

been considered.

As many of the protection functions can be used as

multiple instances there are possibilities to protect

more than one object in one IED. It is possible to

have protection for an auxiliary power transformer

integrated in the same IED having main protections

for the generator. The concept thus enables very

cost effective solutions.

The REG670 also enables valuable monitoring

possibilities as many of the process values can be

transferred to an operator HMI.

The wide application flexibility makes this product

an excellent choice for both new installations and

for refurbishment in existing power plants.

Serial data communication is via optical

connections to ensure immunity against

disturbances.

The wide application flexibility makes this product

an excellent choice for both new installations and

the refurbishment of existing installations.

By using patented algorithm REG670 (or any other

product from 670 series) can track the power

system frequency in quite wide range from 9Hz to

95Hz. In order to do that preferably the three-phase

voltage signal from the generator terminals shall be

connected to the IED. Then IED can adopt its

filtering algorithm in order to properly measure

phasors of all current and voltage signals connected

to the IED. This feature is essential for proper

operation of the protection during generator start-

up and shut-down procedure.

3. Differential protection

Generator differential protection GENPDIF (87G)

Short circuit between the phases of the stator

windings causes normally very large fault currents.

The short circuit gives risk of damages on

insulation, windings and stator iron core. The large

short circuit currents cause large forces, which can

cause damage even to other components in the

power plant, such as turbine and generator-turbine

shaft.

To limit the damage due to stator winding short

circuits, the fault clearance must be as fast as

possible (instantaneous). If the generator block is

connected to the power system close to other

generating blocks, the fast fault clearance is

essential to maintain the transient stability of the

non-faulted generators.

Normally, the short circuit fault current is very large,

that is, significantly larger than the generator rated

current. There is a risk that a short circuit can occur

between phases close to the neutral point of the

generator, thus causing a relatively small fault

current. The fault current can also be limited due to

low excitation of the generator. Therefore, it is

desired that the detection of generator phase-to-

phase short circuits shall be relatively sensitive,

detecting small fault currents.

It is also of great importance that the generator

differential protection does not trip for external

faults, with large fault currents flowing from the

generator.

To combine fast fault clearance, as well as

sensitivity and selectivity, the generator differential

protection is normally the best choice for phase-to-

phase generator short circuits.

Generator differential protection GENPDIF (87G) is

also well suited to generate fast, sensitive and

selective fault clearance, if used to protect shunt

reactors or small busduct.

Transformer differential protection T2WPDIF/

T3WPDIF (87T)

The Transformer differential protection, two-winding

(T2WPDIF, 87T) and Transformer differential

protection, three-winding (T3WPDIF, 87T) are

provided with internal CT ratio matching and phase

shift compensation and settable zero sequence

current elimination.

The function can be provided with up to three-

phase sets of current inputs. All current inputs are

provided with percentage bias restraint features,

making the IED suitable for two- or three-winding

transformer in multi-breaker station arrangements.

The setting facilities cover the applications of the

differential protection to all types of power

transformers and auto-transformers with or without

load tap changer as well as for shunt reactors or

and local feeders within the station. An adaptive

stabilizing feature is included for heavy through-

faults.By introducing the load tap changer position,

the differential protection pick-up can be set to

optimum sensitivity thus covering internal faults with

low fault level.

Harmonic restraint is included for inrush currents as

well as for overexcitation conditions. Adaptive

stabilization is also included for system recovery

inrush and CT saturation for external faults. A high

set unrestrained differential current protection is

included for a very high speed tripping at a high

internal fault currents.

An innovative sensitive differential protection

feature, based on the theory of symmetrical

components, offers the best possible coverage for

power transformer winding turn-to-turn faults.

1Ph High impedance differential protection HZPDIF

(87)

The 1Ph High impedance differential protection

(HZPDIF, 87) function can be used when the

involved CTs have the same turns ratio and similar

magnetizing characteristics. It utilizes an external

CT current summation by wiring, a series resistor,

and a voltage dependent resistor which are

mounted externally connected to the IED.

HZPDIF (87) can be used to protect generator

stator windings, tee-feeders or busbars. Six single

phase function blocks are available to allow

application for two three-phase zones busbar

protection.

Restricted earth fault protection, low impedance

REFPDIF (87N)

Restricted earth-fault protection, low-impedance

function (REFPDIF, 87N) can be used on all solidly

or low-impedance grounded windings. The

REFPDIF (87N) function provides high sensitivity

(down to 5%) and high speed tripping as it

measures each winding individually and thus does

not need inrush stabilization.

The low-impedance function is a percentage biased

function with an additional zero sequence current

directional comparison criterion. This gives excellent

sensitivity and stability during through faults. The

function allows the use of different CT ratios and

magnetizing characteristics on the phase and

neutral CT cores and mixing with other functions

and protection IEDs on the same cores.

Full-scheme distance measuring, Mho

characteristic ZMHPDIS (21)

The numerical mho line distance protection is a four

zone full scheme protection for back-up detection

of short circuit and ground faults. The four zones

have fully independent measuring and settings,

which gives high flexibility for all types of lines.

The function can be used as under impedance back-

up protection for transformers and generators.

Directional impedance element for Mho

characteristic ZDMRDIR

The phase-to-ground impedance elements can be

optionally supervised by a phase unselective

directional function (phase unselective, because it is

based on symmetrical components).

Pole slip protection PSPPPAM (78)

The situation with pole slip of a generator can be

caused by different reasons.

A short circuit may occur in the external power grid,

close to the generator. If the fault clearing time is

too long, the generator will accelerate so much, that

the synchronism cannot be maintained.

Un-damped oscillations occur in the power system,

where generator groups at different locations,

oscillate against each other. If the connection

between the generators is too weak the magnitude

of the oscillations will increase until the angular

stability is lost.

The operation of a generator having pole slip will

give risk of damages to the generator, shaft and

turbine.

• At each pole slip there will be significant torque

impact on the generator-turbine shaft.

• In asynchronous operation there will be

induction of currents in parts of the generator

normally not carrying current, thus resulting in

increased heating. The consequence can be

damages on insulation and stator/rotor iron.

The Pole slip protection (PSPPPAM ,78) function

shall detect pole slip conditions and trip the

generator as fast as possible if the locus of the

measured impedance is inside the generator-

transformer block. If the centre of pole slip is

outside in the power grid, the first action should be

to split the network into two parts, after line

protection action. If this fails there should be

operation of the generator PSPPPAM (78) in zone 2,

to prevent further damages to the generator, shaft

and turbine.

Loss of excitation LEXPDIS (40)

There are limits for the under-excited operation of a

synchronous machine. A reduction of the excitation

current weakens the coupling between the rotor

and the stator. The machine may lose the

synchronism and start to operate like an induction

machine. Then, the reactive power consumption will

increase. Even if the machine does not loose

synchronism it may not be acceptable to operate in

this state for a long time. Reduction of excitation

increases the generation of heat in the end region of

the synchronous machine. The local heating may

damage the insulation of the stator winding and the

iron core.

To prevent damages to the generator it should be

tripped when excitation is lost.

5. Current protection

Instantaneous phase overcurrent protection

PHPIOC (50)

The instantaneous three phase overcurrent function

has a low transient overreach and short tripping

time to allow use as a high set short-circuit

protection function.

Four step phase overcurrent protection OC4PTOC

(51/67)

The four step phase overcurrent protection function

OC4PTOC (51/67) has independent inverse time

delay settings for step 1 and 4. Step 2 and 3 are

always definite time delayed.

All IEC and ANSI inverse time characteristics are

available together with an optional user defined time

characteristic.
