  • HANDLING OF ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

    A person's normal movements can easily generate electrostatic potentials of several thousand volts.Discharge of these voltages into semiconductor devices when handling electronic circuits can causeserious damage, which often may not be immediately apparent but the reliability of the circuit will havebeen reduced.

    The electronic circuits of ALSTOM T&D Protection & Control Ltd products are immune to the relevant levelsof electrostatic discharge when housed in their cases. Do not expose them to the risk of damage bywithdrawing modules unnecessarily.

    Each module incorporates the highest practicable protection for its semiconductor devices. However, if itbecomes necessary to withdraw a module, the following precautions should be taken to preserve the highreliability and long life for which the equipment has been designed and manufactured.

    1. Before removing a module, ensure that you are at the same electrostatic potential as the equipmentby touching the case.

    2. Handle the module by its front-plate, frame, or edges of the printed circuit board.Avoid touching the electronic components, printed circuit track or connectors.

    3. Do not pass the module to any person without first ensuring that you are both at the sameelectrostatic potential. Shaking hands achieves equipotential.

    4. Place the module on an antistatic surface, or on a conducting surface which is at the samepotential as yourself.

    5. Store or transport the module in a conductive bag.

    More information on safe working procedures for all electronic equipment can be found in BS5783 andIEC 60147-0F.

    If you are making measurements on the internal electronic circuitry of an equipment in service, it ispreferable that you are earthed to the case with a conductive wrist strap.Wrist straps should have a resistance to ground between 500k 10M ohms. If a wrist strap is notavailable, you should maintain regular contact with the case to prevent the build up of static.Instrumentation which may be used for making measurements should be earthed to the case wheneverpossible.

    ALSTOM T&D Protection & Control Ltd strongly recommends that detailed investigations on the electroniccircuitry, or modification work, should be carried out in a Special Handling Area such as described inBS5783 or IEC 60147-0F.

  • SAFETY SECTION

    This Safety Section should be read before commencing any work onthe equipment.

    Health and safety

    The information in the Safety Section of the product documentation is intended toensure that products are properly installed and handled in order to maintain themin a safe condition. It is assumed that everyone who will be associated with theequipment will be familiar with the contents of the Safety Section.

    Explanation of symbols and labels

    The meaning of symbols and labels which may be used on the equipment or in theproduct documentation, is given below.

    Caution: refer to product documentation Caution: risk of electric shock

    Protective/safety *earth terminal

    Functional *earth terminal.Note: this symbol may also be used for a protective/safety earth terminal if that terminal is part of aterminal block or sub-assembly eg. power supply.

    *Note: The term earth used throughout the product documentation is the directequivalent of the North American term ground.

    Installing, Commissioning and ServicingEquipment connections

    Personnel undertaking installation, commissioning or servicing work on thisequipment should be aware of the correct working procedures to ensure safety.The product documentation should be consulted before installing, commissioning orservicing the equipment.

    Terminals exposed during installation, commissioning and maintenance maypresent a hazardous voltage unless the equipment is electrically isolated.

    If there is unlocked access to the rear of the equipment, care should be taken by allpersonnel to avoid electric shock or energy hazards.

    Voltage and current connections should be made using insulated crimpterminations to ensure that terminal block insulation requirements are maintainedfor safety. To ensure that wires are correctly terminated, the correct crimp terminaland tool for the wire size should be used.

    Page 3

  • Before energising the equipment it must be earthed using the protective earthterminal, or the appropriate termination of the supply plug in the case of plugconnected equipment. Omitting or disconnecting the equipment earth may cause asafety hazard.

    The recommended minimum earth wire size is 2.5 mm2, unless otherwise stated inthe technical data section of the product documentation.

    Before energising the equipment, the following should be checked:

    Voltage rating and polarity;

    CT circuit rating and integrity of connections;

    Protective fuse rating;

    Integrity of earth connection (where applicable)

    Equipment operating conditions

    The equipment should be operated within the specified electrical andenvironmental limits.

    Current transformer circuits

    Do not open the secondary circuit of a live CT since the high voltage producedmay be lethal to personnel and could damage insulation.

    External resistors

    Where external resistors are fitted to relays, these may present a risk of electricshock or burns, if touched.

    Battery replacement

    Where internal batteries are fitted they should be replaced with the recommendedtype and be installed with the correct polarity, to avoid possible damage to theequipment.

    Insulation and dielectric strength testing

    Insulation testing may leave capacitors charged up to a hazardous voltage. At theend of each part of the test, the voltage should be gradually reduced to zero, todischarge capacitors, before the test leads are disconnected.

    Insertion of modules and pcb cards

    These must not be inserted into or withdrawn from equipment whilst it is energised,since this may result in damage.

    Fibre optic communication

    Where fibre optic communication devices are fitted, these should not be vieweddirectly. Optical power meters should be used to determine the operation or signallevel of the device.

    Page 4

  • Older ProductsElectrical adjustments

    Equipments which require direct physical adjustments to their operating mechanismto change current or voltage settings, should have the electrical power removedbefore making the change, to avoid any risk of electric shock.

    Mechanical adjustments

    The electrical power to the relay contacts should be removed before checking anymechanical settings, to avoid any risk of electric shock.

    Draw out case relays

    Removal of the cover on equipment incorporating electromechanical operatingelements, may expose hazardous live parts such as relay contacts.

    Insertion and withdrawal of extender cards

    When using an extender card, this should not be inserted or withdrawn from theequipment whilst it is energised. This is to avoid possible shock or damagehazards. Hazardous live voltages may be accessible on the extender card.

    Insertion and withdrawal of heavy current test plugs

    When using a heavy current test plug, CT shorting links must be in place beforeinsertion or removal, to avoid potentially lethal voltages.

    Decommissioning and Disposal

    Decommissioning: The auxiliary supply circuit in the relay may includecapacitors across the supply or to earth. To avoid electricshock or energy hazards, after completely isolating thesupplies to the relay (both poles of any dc supply), thecapacitors should be safely discharged via the externalterminals prior to decommissioning.

    Disposal: It is recommended that incineration and disposal to watercourses is avoided. The product should be disposed of in asafe manner. Any products containing batteries should havethem removed before disposal, taking precautions to avoidshort circuits. Particular regulations within the country ofoperation, may apply to the disposal of lithium batteries.

    Section 1. INTRODUCTION

    The K Range of overcurrent and directional overcurrent relays has beenrationalised and additional features have been added to the individual relays towiden their application. Some menu cell locations have changed to accommodatethe new features and so setting files that have been generated for the series 1relays to suit particular applications may need some small modification before theycan be used with the new K Range series 2. However, the menu locations formeasured values and other data that is accessed by SCADA equipment retain theiroriginal locations. Hence the changes should be transparent to mostcommunication interfaces that may have been developed.

    Manual R8501 should be used for K Range series 1 relays.

    This manual details the menu, functions and logic for the K Range series 2 relays.

    Section 3. AN INTRODUCTION TO K RELAYS

    The K Range of protection relays brings numerical technology to the successfulMidos range of protection relays. Fully compatible with the existing designs andsharing the same modular housing concept, the relays offer more comprehensiveprotection for demanding applications.

    Each relay includes an extensive range of control and data gathering functions toprovide a completely integrated system of protection, control, instrumentation, datalogging, fault, event and disturbance recording. The relays have a user-friendly 32character liquid crystal display (LCD) with 4 push buttons which allow menunavigation and setting changes. Also, by utilising the simple 2-wire communicationlink, all of the relay functions can be read, reset and changed on demand from alocal or remote personal computer (PC) loaded with the relevant software.

    With enhanced versatility, reduced maintenance requirements and low burdens,K Range relays provide a more advanced solution to power system protection.The K Range series 2 relays have new features that are additional to those foundon series 1 relays. The additional functions include:

    Protection thermal, underfrequency, broken conductor detection, rectifierprotection and improved undervoltage

    Measurement thermal ammeters, single phase W and VAR

    Logic improved logic flexibility

    Recording additional methods of resetting the disturbance recorder, triggeringthe disturbance recorder from the logic inputs, thresholds on circuitbreaker maintenance counter and contact arcing duty plus 5 fullfault records.

    KCGG relays provide overcurrent and earth fault protection for power distributionsystems, industrial power systems and all other applications where overcurrentprotection is required. The relays are used in applications where time gradedovercurrent and earth fault protection is required. The earth fault protectionprovides suitable sensitivity for most systems where the earth fault current is limited.

    KCEG relays provide directional overcurrent and earth fault protection.The overcurrent elements can be selectively directionalised, making the relays acost effective option where both directional and non-directional protection isrequired. The sensitivity of earth fault protection has been increased to cover mostapplications. The earth fault protection provides suitable sensitivity for most systemswhere the earth fault current is limited.

    KCEU relays provide directional overcurrent and sensitive wattmetric earth faultprotection for systems which are earthed through a Petersen coil.

    Integral features in K Range relays include circuit breaker failure protection, backtripping, blocked overcurrent protection for feeders or busbars, cold load pick-upfacilities, load shedding capabilities and two alternative groups of predeterminedsettings. The relays also have integral serial communication facilities via K-Bus.

    Section 1. GENERAL CONSIDERATIONS

    1.1 Receipt of relays

    Protective relays, although generally of robust construction, require carefultreatment prior to installation on site. Upon receipt, relays should be examinedimmediately to ensure no damage has been sustained in transit. If damage hasbeen sustained during transit a claim should be made to the transport contractorand ALSTOM T&D Protection & Control Ltd should be promptly notified.

    Relays that are supplied unmounted and not intended for immediate installationshould be returned to their protective polythene bags.

    1.2 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)

    The relays use components that are sensitive to electrostatic discharges.The electronic circuits are well protected by the metal case and the internal moduleshould not be withdrawn unnecessarily. When handling the module outside itscase, care should be taken to avoid contact with components and electricalconnections. If removed from the case for storage, the module should be placed inan electrically conducting antistatic bag.

    There are no setting adjustments within the module and it is advised that it is notunnecessarily disassembled. Although the printed circuit boards are pluggedtogether, the connectors are a manufacturing aid and not intended for frequentdismantling; in fact considerable effort may be required to separate them. Touchingthe printed circuit board should be avoided, since complementary metal oxidesemiconductors (CMOS) are used, which can be damaged by static electricitydischarged from the body.

    Section 2. HANDLING OF ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT

    A persons normal movements can easily generate electrostatic potentials of severalthousand volts. Discharge of these voltages into semiconductor devices whenhandling electronic circuits can cause serious damage, which often may not beimmediately apparent but the reliability of the circuit will have been reduced.

    The electronic circuits are completely safe from electrostatic discharge whenhoused in the case. Do not expose them to risk of damage by withdrawingmodules unnecessarily.

    Each module incorporates the highest practicable protection for its semiconductordevices. However, if it becomes necessary to withdraw a module, the folowingprecautions should be taken to preserve the high reliability and long life for whichthe equipment has been designed and manufactured.

    1. Before removing a module, ensure that you are at the same electrostaticpotential as the equipment by touching the case.

    2. Handle the module by its frontplate, frame or edges of the printed circuit board.Avoid touching the electronic componenets, printed circuit track or connectors.

    3. Do not pass the module to another person without first ensuring you are both atthe same electrostatic potential. Shaking hands achieves equipotential.

    4. Place the module on an antistatic surface, or on a conducting surface which isat the same potential as yourself.

    5. Store or transport the module in a conductive bag.

    If you are making measurements on the internal electronic circuitry of anequipment in service, it is preferable that you are earthed to the case with aconductive wrist strap. Wrist straps should have a resistance to ground between500k 10M.If a wrist strap is not available you should maintain regular contact with the case toprevent a build-up of static. Instrumentation which may be used for makingmeasurements should be earthed to the case whenever possible.

    More information on safe working procedures for all electronic equipment can befound in BS5783 and IEC 60147-OF. It is strongly recommended that detailedinvestigations on electronic circuitry or modification work should be carried out ina special handling area such as described in the above-mentioned BS and IECdocuments.

    Section 3. RELAY MOUNTING

    Relays are dispatched either individually or as part of a panel/rack assembly.If loose relays are to be assembled into a scheme, then construction details can befound in Publication R7012. If an MMLG test block is to be included it should bepositioned at the right-hand side of the assembly (viewed from the front). Modulesshould remain protected by their metal case during assembly into a panel or rack.The design of the relay is such that the fixing holes are accessible without removalof the cover. For individually mounted relays an outline diagram is normallysupplied showing the panel cut-outs and hole centres. These dimensions will alsobe found in Publication R6551.

    Section 4. UNPACKING

    Care must be taken when unpacking and installing the relays so that none of theparts is damaged or the settings altered. Relays must only be handled by skilledpersons. The installation should be clean, dry and reasonably free from dust andexcessive vibration. The site should be well lit to facilitate inspection. Relays thathave been removed from their cases should not be left in situations where they areexposed to dust or damp. This particularly applies to installations which are beingcarried out at the same time as construction work.

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551CKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 2KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 3 of 3KCEU 142, 242

    Section 5. STORAGE

    If relays are not to be installed immediately upon receipt they should be stored in aplace free from dust and moisture in their original cartons. Where de-humidifierbags have been included in the packing they should be retained. The action of thede-humidifier crystals will be impaired if the bag has been exposed to ambientconditions and may be restored by gently heating the bag for about an hour, priorto replacing it in the carton.

    Dust which collects on a carton may, on subsequent unpacking, find its way intothe relay; in damp conditions the carton and packing may become impregnatedwith moisture and the de-humifier will lose its efficiency.

    Storage temperature 25C to +70C.

    Section 1. RELAY DESCRIPTION

    The KCGG, KCEG and KCEU relays use numerical techniques to derive protectionand control functions. They can have up to eight multiplexed analogue inputs,sampled eight times per power frequency cycle. The Fourier derived powerfrequency component returns the rms value of the measured quantity. To ensureoptimum performance, frequency tracking is used. The channel that is tracked ischosen on a priority basis, Va, Vb, Vc, Ia, Ib, Ic. Frequency tracking is notemployed on the residual voltage, or current to ensure the maximum harmonicrejection. In the absence of a signal to frequency track, the sampling frequencydefaults to the rated frequency of the power system.

    Up to eight output relays can be programmed to respond to any of the protectionor control functions and up to eight logic inputs can be allocated to controlfunctions. The logic inputs are filtered to ensure that induced AC current in theexternal wiring to these inputs does not cause an incorrect response. Software linksfurther enable the user to customise the product for their own particularapplications. They select/interconnect the various protection and control elementsand replace the interconnections that were previously used between the cases ofrelays that provided discrete protection or control functions.

    The relays are powered from either a DC or an AC auxiliary supply which istransformed by a wide ranging DC/DC converter within the relay. This providesthe electronic circuits with regulated and galvanically isolated supply rails.The power supply also provides a regulated and isolated field voltage to energisethe logic inputs.

    The dual powered version of the relay draws its energising supply from the currenttransformers in the absence of an auxiliary voltage supply. This makes it suitablefor application where the auxiliary supply is not reliable or not available. They canbe used in shunt trip, capacitor discharge and AC series trip arrangements.

    An interface on the front of the relay allows the user to navigate through the menuto access data, change settings and reset flags, etc. As an alternative the relayscan be connected to a computer via their serial communication ports and the menuaccessed on-line. This provides a more friendly and intuitive method of setting therelay, as it allows a whole column of data to be displayed at one time instead ofjust a single menu cell. Computer programs are also available that enable settingfiles to be generated off-line and these files can then be downloaded to the relayvia the serial port.

    In addition to protection and control functions the relays can display all the valuesthat it measures and many additional ones that it calculates. They also store usefultime stamped data for post fault analysis in fault records, event records anddisturbance records. This data is available via a serial communication port foraccess locally and/or remotely with a computer. The fault records, event recordsand disturbance records can be extracted automatically via the serial port andvalues can be polled periodically to determine trends. Remote control actions canalso be made and to this end many K Range relays have been integrated intoSCADA systems.

    K Range relays provide the user with the flexibility to customise the relay for theirparticular applications. They provide many additional features that would beexpensive to produce on an individual basis and, when the low installation costsare taken into account, it will be seen to provide an economic solution forprotection and control.

    Section 2. USER INTERFACE

    The front plate of the relay provides a man machine interface providing the userwith a means of entering settings to the relay displaying measured values, faultrecords and alarms. The series 2 relays have additional graphics to assist the user.The area in which the fault flags are displayed is divided up to denote the areaassociated with each phase and there is a marked position for the appropriatephase colours to be marked and for labels to be affixed to denote the use of thethree overcurrent stages and the three auxiliary timers.

    Thus:

    C would indicate that a current above the I> setting had been detected bythe phase C element during the fault (START condition).

    C* would indicate the first overcurrent stage (t>) had operated

    C_* would indicate the second stage (t>>) had timed out

    C__* would indicate t>>> had timed out third overcurrent stage

    C*_* would indicate that both t> and t>>> had timed out

    Flag information is similarly provided for the other two phases and for earth faults.

    The six digits at the left-hand side of the display on the bottom line identify theauxiliary functions AUX1, AUX2, AUX3 as AUX123. Two printed panels below thedisplay may be used to indicate the function of each of the three auxiliary functionsand those of the three main overcurrent functions respectively. The appropriate pre-printed labels can be affixed in these two areas.

    should be depressed for one second. Section 4 gives instructions for changing thevarious types of settings.

    Password protection is provided for the configuration settings of the relay becausean accidental change could seriously affect the ability of the relay to perform itsintended functions. Configuration settings include the selection of time curves,function links, CT and VT ratios, opto-input and relay output allocation. Individualprotection settings are protected from change when the relay cover is in place.

    3.3 Menu contents

    Related data and settings are grouped in separate columns of the menu.Each column has a text heading (in capital letters) that identifies the data containedin that column. Each cell may contain text, values, limits and/or a function.The cells are referenced by the column number/row number. For example 0201 iscolumn 02, row 01. When a cell is displayed the four characters at the top lefthand corner of the LCD indicate the column number and row number in the menutable.

    The full menu is given in the following tables, but not all the items listed will beavailable in a particular relay. For example, a single pole earth fault relay wouldnot display any phase fault settings and a non-directional relay would not displayany settings associated with the directional feature. Those cells that do not provideany useful purpose are not made available in the factory configuration.Certain settings will disappear from the menu when the user de-selects them; thealternative setting group is a typical example. If group 2 settings have not beenenabled then the menu columns EARTH FLT 2 and PHASE FLT 2 will be hidden andmake them visible, the system data link SD4 must be set to 1. This note is includedat this time to explain why some of the items listed below may not appear in themenu for a relay that is being compared with the full list.

    Are you sure?

    + = YES = NO

    Press the [0] key if you decide not to make any change.

    Press the [] key if you want to further modify the data before entry.

    Press the [+] key to accept the change. This will terminate the setting mode.

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551DKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 3KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 19 of 26KCEU 142, 242

    4.5 Password protection

    Password protection is provided for the configuration settings of the relay.This includes time curve selection, CT and VT ratios, function links, input masks andrelay masks. Any accidental change to configuration could seriously affect theability of the relay to perform its intended functions, whereas, a setting error mayonly cause a grading problem. Individual settings are protected from change whenthe relay cover is in place by preventing direct access to the [+] and [] keys.

    The password consists of four characters that may contain any upper case letterfrom the alphabet. The password is initially set in the factory to AAAA, but it canbe changed by the user to another combination if necessary. If the password is lostor forgotten, access to the relay will be denied. However, if the manufacturer ortheir agent is supplied with the serial number of the relay, a back-up password canbe supplied that is unique to that particular product.

    4.6 Entering passwords

    Using the [F] key, select the password cell [0002] in the SYSTEM DATA column ofthe menu. The word Password is displayed and four stars. Press the [+] key andthe cursor will appear under the left hand star. Now use the [+] key to step throughthe alphabet until the required letter is displayed. The display will increment fasterif the key is held down and the [] key can be used in a similar way to movebackwards through the alphabet. When the desired character has been set the [F]key can be given a momentary press to move the cursor to the position for the nextcharacter. The process is then repeated to enter the remaining characters thatmake up the password. When the fourth character is acknowledged by amomentary press of the [F] key the display will read:

    Are you sure?

    + = YES = NO

    Press the [0] key if you decide not to enter the password.

    Press the [] key if you want to modify the entry.

    Press the [+] to enter the password. The display will then show four stars and if thepassword was accepted the alarm LED will flash. If the alarm LED is not flashingthe password was not accepted a further attempt can be made to enter it, or the[F] key pressed to move to the next cell.

    Note: When the password cell is displayed, do not press the [+] or [] key whilstthe alarm LED is flashing unless you want to change the password!

    4.7 Changing passwords

    When the password has been entered and the alarm LED is flashing the [+] key ispressed to put the relay in setting mode. A new password can now be entered asdescribed in Section 4.6. After entering the fourth character make a note of thenew password shown on the display before pressing the [F] key to obtain theconfirmation display.

    Are you sure?

    + = YES = NO

    Press the [0] key if you decide not to enter the new password.

    Press the [] key if you want to modify your entry.

    Press the [+] to enter the new password which will then replace the old one.

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551DKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 3KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 20 of 26KCEU 142, 242

    Note: Make sure the new password has been written down before it is enteredand that the password being entered agrees with the written copy beforeaccepting it. If the new password is not entered correctly you may bedenied access in the future. If the password is lost a back-up passwordunique to that relay can be provided from the factory, or certain agents, ifthe serial number of the product is quoted.

    4.8 Restoration of password protection

    Password protection is reinstated when the alarm LED stops flashing. This will occurfifteen minutes after the last key press. To restore the password protection withoutwaiting for the fifteen minute time-out, select the password cell or any columnheading and hold the reset key [0] depressed for 1s. The alarm LED will cease toflash to indicate the password protection is restored.

    4.9 Entering text

    Enter the setting mode as described in Section 4.2 and move the cursor with the [F]key to where the text is to be entered or changed. Then using the [+] and [] keys,select the character to be displayed. The [F] key may then be used to move thecursor to the position of the next character and so on. Follow the instructions inSection 4.4 to exit from the setting change.

    4.10 Changing function links

    Select the column heading required and step down to the function links SD Links,EF Links, PF Links, or LOG Links and press either the [+] or [] to put therelay in a setting change mode. A cursor will flash on the bottom line at theextreme left position. This is link F; as indicated by the character printed on thefrontplate under the display.

    Press the [F] key to step along the row of links, one link at a time, until some textappears on the top line that describes the function of a link. The [+] key willchange the link to a 1 to select the function and the [] key will change it to a0 to deselect it. Follow the instructions in Section 4.4 to accept the settingchange.

    Not all links can be set, some being factory selected and locked. The links that arelocked in this way are usually those for functions that are not supported by aparticular relay, when they will be set to 0. Merely moving the cursor past a linkposition does not change it in any way.

    4.11 Changing setting values

    Move through the menu until the cell that is to be edited is displayed. Press the [+]or [] key to put the relay into the setting change mode. A cursor will flash in theextreme left hand position on the bottom line of the display to indicate that therelay is ready to have the setting changed. The value will be incremented in singlesteps by each momentary press of the [+] key, or if the [+] key is held down thevalue will be incremented with increasing rapidity until the key is released.Similarly the [] key can be used to decrement the value. Follow the instructions inSection 4.4 to exit from the setting change.

    Note: When entering CT RATIO or VT RATIO the overall ratio should be entered,ie. 2000/5A CT has an overall ratio of 400:1. With rated current appliedthe relay will display 5A when CT RATIO has the default value of 1:1 andwhen the ratio is set to 400:1 the displayed value will be 400 x 5 =2000A.

    4.12 Setting communication address

    The communication address will be set to 255, the global address to all relays onthe network, when the relay is first supplied. Reply messages are not issued fromany relay for a global command, because they would all respond at the same timeand result in contention on the bus. Setting the address to 255 will ensure thatwhen first connected to the network they will not interfere with communications onexisting installations. The communication address can be manually set by selectingthe appropriate cell for the SYSTEM DATA column, entering the setting mode asdescribed in Section 4.2 and then decrementing or incrementing the address.Then exit setting mode as described in Section 4.4.

    To automatically allocate an address to the relay, see Chapter 6.

    4.13 Setting input masks

    An eight bit mask is allocated to each protection and control function that can beinfluenced by an external input applied to one or more of the logic inputs.When the menu cell for an input mask is selected the top line of the display showstext describing the function to be controlled by the inputs selected in the mask.A series of 1s and 0s on the bottom line of the display indicates which logicinputs are selected to exert control. The numbers printed on the frontplate under thedisplay indicate each of the logic inputs (L7 to L0) being displayed.A 1 indicates that a particular input is assigned to the displayed control functionand a 0 indicates that it is not. The same input may be used to control more thanone function.

    4.14 Setting output masks

    An eight bit mask is allocated to each protection and control function. When amask is selected the text on the top line of the display indicates the associatedfunction and the bottom line of the display shows a series of 1s and 0s for theselected mask. The numbers printed on the frontplate under the display indicate theoutput relay (RLY7 to RLY0) to which each bit is associated. A 1 indicates that therelay will respond to the displayed function and a 0 indicates that it will not.

    A logical OR function is performed on the relay masks so that more than onerelay may be allocated to more than one function. An output mask may be set tooperate the same relay as another mask so that, for example, one output relaymay be arranged to operate for all the functions required to trip the circuit breakerand another for only those functions that are to initiate autoreclose.

    4.15 Resetting values and records

    Some values and records can be reset to zero, or some predefined value.To achieve this the menu cell must be displayed and then the [0] key helddepressed for at least one second to effect the reset. The fault records are slightlydifferent because they are a group of settings and to reset these the last cell underFLT RECORDS must be selected. This will display:

    Clear = [0]

    To reset ALL FIVE fault records hold the [0] key depressed for more than 1s. If therecords are not cleared the oldest record will be overwritten by the next fault.

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551DKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 3KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 22 of 26KCEU 142, 242

    4.16 Resetting trip LED indication

    The trip LED can be reset when the flags for the last fault are displayed. They aredisplayed automatically after a trip occurs, or can be selected in the fault recordcolumn. The reset is effected by depressing the [0] key for 1s. Resetting the faultrecords as described in 4.15 will also reset the trip LED indication.

    Set function link SD5 to 1 for the trip LED to automatically reset. This will thenoccur when the circuit breaker is reclosed and the load current exceeds theundercurrent setting (I

    Note: All relays have standard Midos terminal blocks to which connections canbe made with either 4mm screws or 4.8mm pre-insulated snap-onconnectors. Two connections can be made to each terminal.

    5.1 Auxiliary supply

    The auxiliary voltage may be DC or AC provided it is within the limiting voltagesfor the particular relay. The voltage range will be found on the frontplate of therelay; it is marked Vx = (24V 125V) or (48V 250V). An ideal supply to use fortesting the relays will be 50V DC or 110V AC because these values fall withinboth of the auxiliary voltage ranges.

    The supply should be connected to terminals 13 and 14 only. To avoid anyconfusion it is recommended that the polarity of any applied voltage is kept to theMidos standard: for dc supplies the positive lead connected to terminal 13 and the negative to

    terminal 14 for ac supplies the live lead is connected to terminal 13 and the neutral lead to

    terminal 14.

    5.2 Dual powered relays

    Dual powered relays derive power from the current transformer circuit and may beused with this power source alone. However, the application of an auxiliary DC orAC voltage will enable lower earth fault settings to be used, also settings to beapplied and data to be read when the load current is insufficient to power therelay. It will also allow communications to be maintained at such times.

    When powered from the CT circuit alone the 48V field voltage will be available topower the opto-isolated control inputs when the protection starts up. The phasefault current setting range is limited to the minimum current levels at which thepower requirements of the relay can be maintained. See Technical Data,Chapter 7. This model of relay is rated for an auxiliary voltageVx = (100V to 250V).

    Note: The capacitance discharge circuit is not isolated from the auxiliary supplyand to prevent the relay from being damaged, no external groundconnection should be made to this circuit.

    5.3 Logic control inputs

    There are a number of logic control inputs to the relay that are optically coupled toprovide galvanic isolation between the external and internal circuits. They arerated at 48V and the power supply within the relay provides an isolated fieldvoltage to energise them. This arrangement keeps the power consumption of theseinputs to a minimum and ensures that they always have a supply to energise themwhen the relay is operational. This is particularly important for the dual poweredrelay when there is no auxiliary supply voltage available and the relay isenergised by the current from the line current transformers.

    Software filtering is applied to prevent induced AC signals in the external wiringcausing operation of logic inputs. This is achieved by sampling the logic inputseight times per cycle and five consecutive samples have to indicate that the input isenergised in a positive sense before it is accepted. This ensures that the inputs arerelatively immune to spurious operation from induced AC signals in the wiring.The capture time is:

    12 2.5ms at 50Hz10.4 2.1ms at 60Hz (not available on KCEU relays)

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551DKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 3KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 24 of 26KCEU 142, 242

    Note: These inputs will not capture a fleeting contact unless it dwells in the closedstate for a time exceeding the above values.

    The opto-isolated logic control inputs are divided into two groups. Three (L0, L1,L2) have their common connection on terminal 52 and are fitted to the KCGG 14202 relay and relays with no more than two analogue inputs. The remainder (L3,L4, L5, L6, L7) have their common connection on terminal 55 and are fitted torelays with 8 opto inputs. When they are to be energised from the field voltagethen terminals 52 and 55 must be connected to terminal 8, the negative of the fieldvoltage. The logic inputs can then be energised by connecting a volt free contactbetween the positive of the field voltage, terminal 7, and the terminal for theappropriate logic input.

    The circuit for each opto-isolated input contains a blocking diode to protect it fromany damage that may result from the application of voltage with incorrect polarity.Where the opto-isolated input of more than one relay is to be controlled by thesame contact it will be necessary to connect terminal 7 of each relay together toform a common line. In the example circuit below, contact X operates L1 of relay 1and contact Y operates L0 of relay 1 as well as L0 and L1 of relay 2. There are noconnections made to L2 as it is not used on either relay.

    The logic inputs can be separated into two isolated groups when it is necessary toenergise some from the station battery. The logic inputs are rated at 48V and it willbe necessary to connect an external resistor in series with the input if the battery isof higher rated voltage. The value of this resistor should be 2.4k for everyadditional 10V.

    The field voltage is not earthed and has insulation rated for 2kV for 1 minute.Thus if necessary the positive terminal of the field voltage could be connected tothe positive terminal on the external battery. Also the two separate groups of logicinputs could be energised from separate batteries.

    5.4 Analogue inputs

    The relays can have up to eight analogue inputs, two on the microprocessor boardand six on the auxiliary expansion board. Each is fed via an input transducer, alow pass filter and a three range scaling amplifier. The analogue signals aresampled eight times per cycle on each channel as the sampling rate tracks thefrequency of the input signal.

    The wide setting range provided on the auxiliary powered version of the relays issufficient to enable the 5A version of the relay to operate from either 1A or 5Acurrent transformers and this version of the relay can be used where dual ratedrelays are specified. Alternatively, the wide setting range makes the relay suitablefor use on circuit breakers that may be applied to a wide range of load circuitratings with only one current transformer ratio. For example a circuit breaker ratedat 2kA and fitted with current transformers rated at 2000/10A (or 2000/2A) andrelays rated at 5A (or 1A) could be applied to circuits with load ratings from 100Ato 2000A.

    The dual powered relays have a narrower setting range and must be used withcurrent transformers that match their current rating. Thermal dissipation is thelimitation for the upper end of the setting range and the energy required to powerthe relay is the limitation at the lower end. When the relay is powered from anadditional auxiliary voltage source, earth fault settings can be applied below thatat which the relay can derive sufficient power from the CTs. For this reason theearth fault setting range has not been restricted.

  • SERVICE MANUAL R8551DKCGG 122, 142 Chapter 3KCEG 112, 142, 152, 242 Page 25 of 26KCEU 142, 242

    5.5 Output relays

    Four programmable output relays are provided on the KCGG 142 02 relay andrelays with no more than two analogue inputs and eight on all other models. Theycan be arranged to operate in response to any or all of the available functions bysuitably setting the output masks. The protection and control functions to whichthese relays respond are selectable via the menu system of the relay.

    In addition there is a watchdog relay which has one make and one break contact.Thus it can indicate both healthy and failed conditions. As these contacts aremainly used for alarm purposes they have a lower rating than the programmableoutputs. The terminal numbers for the output relay contacts are given in the table atthe start of Section 5.

    5.6 Ouput relay minimum dwell time

    Outputs from t>, t>>, t>>>, to>, to>>, to>>> have a minimum dwell of 100ms.The thermal trip will have an inherent delay dependent on the selected timeconstant. The contact dwell ensures a positive trip signal is given to the circuitbreaker.

    All other outputs such as I>, I>>, I>>>, Io>, Io>>, Io>>>, tV>, Aux1, Aux2 andAux3 have no deliberate dwell time added to them. This is because they are eitherfollowed by a timer, or used for control purposes which require a faster reset time.

    5.7 Setting the relay with a PC or laptop

    Connection to a personal computer (PC) or lap top via a K-Bus/RS232 interfacetype KITZ 101 will enable settings to be changed more easily. Software isavailable for the PC that allows on line setting changes in a more user friendly waywith a whole column of data being displayed instead of just single cells. Settingfiles can also be saved to floppy disk and downloaded to other relays of the sametype. There are also programs available to enable setting files to be generated off-line, ie. away from the relays that can be later down-loaded as necessary.

    The communication connections and available software are covered underApplications in Chapter 6.

    Section 6. ALARM FLAGS

    A full list of the alarm flags will be found in Section 3.3 and is located in cell 0022of the SYSTEM DATA column of the menu. They consist of nine characters that maybe either 1 or 0 to indicate the set and reset states respectively. The controlkeys perform for this menu cell in the same way as they do for function links.The cell is selected with the function key [F] and the relay then put in the settingmode by pressing the [+] key to display the cursor. The cursor will then be steppedthrough the alarm word from left to right with each press of the [F] key and textidentifying the alarm bit selected will be displayed.

    The only alarm flag that can be manually set is the bit 6, the watchdog test flag.When this flag is set to 1 the watchdog relay will change state and the greenLED will extinguish.

    When any alarm flag is set the alarm LED will be continuously lit. However, there isanother form of alarm condition that will cause the alarm LED to flash and thisindicates that the password has been entered to allow access to change protected

    settings within the relay. This is not generally available as a remote alarm and itdoes not generate an alarm flag.

    Note: No control will be possible via the key pad if the unconfigured alarm israised because the relay will be locked in a non-operate state.
