1 Application

1.1 Earth fault directional determinationThe highly sensitive transient earth-fault relay7SN60 determines the direction of transient andcontinuous earth faults in systems with isolatedneutral, in systems with high-impedance resistiveearthing and in compensated systems.

Continuous earth faults are indicated with a delay,either in conjunction with a transient earth-fault andsubsequently persisting displacement voltage, orwith just the displacement voltage present.

In the event of an earth fault, the neutral-pointvoltage to earth can be as high as the full phasevoltage.

The phase-to-earth capacitances of the non-earth-faulted phases are charged via the transformerinductance.

This charging process is bound up with a strongcurrent surge (starting oscillation).

The amplitude of this current surge depends on theexpands of the system and on the contactresistance values at the earth-fault location.

This current flows via the phase-to-earthcapacitances of the unaffected lines to earth,enters the earth-faulted phase via the earth-faultlocation and flows back from there to the feedingtransformer.

Thus the direction of the earth-fault inducedcurrent surge is identical with that of the short-circuited current at the same location (seefigure 1.1).

8 - 36 Siemens AG – 05.10.2002

At measuring point A, as a result of the transformersummation circuit, the earth current of the faultedline is not included in the measurement, as thiscurrent portion flows though the summationtransformer of the relevant Holmgreen circuit andback, thereby cancelling itself out.

It is the total of the capacitive earth currents fromthe non-faulted system which has an effect. In thediagram they are summated on the upper line. Thecapacitive currents of the non-faulted lines 1, 3 and2, 4 accumulate vectorially, which is why only threearrows instead of four are shown at measuringpoint A.

With a transient earth fault, the equalizing currentforming with a damped oscillation of 100 to morethan 1 000 Hz decays after only a few periods.

The displacement voltage UEM thereupon alsoreturns to zero. In earthed systems this takes placeafter a number of periods (decay of the Petersencoil – earth capacitance oscillation circuit); in non-

earthed systems this occurs after a very short time(figure 1.2).

In the case of a continuous earth fault, theequalizing current in the non-earthed systemchanges into the mostly capacitive continuousearth current or, in compensated systems, into therelatively low residual active current.

For the directional determination, the direction ofthe first transient of neutral current anddisplacement voltage is considered.

The device indicates the direction of the transientearth fault by LEDs (red = forward direction, yellow= reverse direction) and the relevant signallingrelay picks up.

Continuous earth faults are indicated after asettable time by an LED on the device andsignalled by a signalling relay.

1.2 Detection of the fault locationIf the system is of radial configuration (figure 1.3),the red lamp immediately indicates the faulted line.

If one of the lines consists of several sections(figure 1.4), the fault is upstream of the last redlamp.

The transient earth-fault relay can also be usedwithout restrictions in any type of meshed systems(figures 1.5 and 1.6). Transient earth-fault relaysdistributed at suitable points throughout the systemallow detection of the earth-fault location from thedirectional indications.

2 Method of operation

2.1 Detection of transients in the current pathThe summation current of the cable-type CT or ofthe three phase-current CTs in Holmgreen circuit istransformed into a proportional voltage in the inputcircuit (see figure 2.1).

A surge voltage protector protects the internalelectronic system of the device.

To match primary CTs to 1 A or 5 A, the burden isswitched over by setting jumper X2.

Switches S3.3-6 are used in conjunction with anamplifier to set the sensitivity of the transient earthfault relay.

Special filters are provided downstream forcomplete suppression of the fundamental wavecontent. The relay thus detects only transients ofthe type observed in a system in the case of earthfaults.

The proportional transient voltage is supplied toone positive and one negative comparator andthereby digitized. These digital signals I_pos. andI_neg. are generated separately in real time; onlyone signal can be active at any one time.

2.2 Detection of transients in the voltage pathThe three phase voltages form the virtual starpointof the voltage transformer delta via the summationresistors in star-delta connection. Hence, thedisplacement voltage of the system is locatedbetween this point and the supplied earth potentialof the transformers (see figure 2.2).

Surge voltage protectors protect the voltagetransformer against excessive transient voltages.

For the detection of transients, special filters areprovided downstream of the voltage transformer

which suppress completely the fundamental wavecontent. The relay thus detects only transients ofthe type observed in a system in the case of earthfaults.

The proportional transient voltage is supplied toone positive and one negative comparator andthereby digitized. These digital signals U_pos. andU_neg. are generated separately in real time; onlyone signal can be active at any one time.

Figure 2.2: Detection of transients and of fundamental wave in the voltage path

2.3 Detection of fundamental wave in the voltage pathFor the detection of the fundamental wave, a low-pass filter is provided downstream of the voltagetransformer. The relay thus detects thedisplacement voltage that is observed only in caseof a transient or continuous earth fault in thesystem (see figure 2.2).

Switches S3.7-8 are used in conjunction with anamplifier to the sensitivity for the detection of thedisplacement voltage.

The proportional voltage is supplied to acomparator that makes digital signals available forthe duration of the earth fault if the triggerthreshold is exceeded.

2.4 Evaluation logic for directional indicationWhen the transient earth-fault relay is ready tooperate, the evaluation logic is started by thedetection of a neutral current Io and the first of thetwo signals "I_pos." or "I_neg." (see figure 2.3).

The digitized measured values are evaluated in aprogrammable logic device (PLD). The procedureis controlled by a clock-pulse generator.

To ensure that only those transients are detectedthat occur in connection with transient groundfaults, the circuit evaluates only signals that arepresent for more than 50 µs or 150 µs. Theminimum signal duration is set using switch S2.8.The default setting for standard applications is150 µs, which is equivalent to a frequency

threshold of 3 kHz up to which the transient isreliably detected. The first signal leaving the filter,e.g. "I_pos.", sets the input memory (S Ip) andblocks at the same time via an OR gate the otherinput memory (R In). The first transient received isstored as I_pos.

Simultaneously, a timer is started that opens atime window of 1 ms or 4 ms for detection of thevoltage transient. This interval can be set by switchS3.2. The default setting for standard applicationsis 4 ms. Any signal U_pos." or "U_neg." arrivingduring this interval is stored in the same way as forthe current path.

If no transient voltage is detected within the timewindow, a reset signal "U_Reset" is generated. AGeneral Reset signal (which is generated if otherreset criteria are fulfilled as well) resets allmemories and makes the relay ready to operateagain. Additionally, the “Blocked” LED is set for500 ms. This LED allows to recognize duringcommissioning whether repeated spurious pickupsof the transient earth-fault relay are due tointerference or to a pickup threshold in the currentpath that is set too low. The alarm relay is not set.

The information that has been frozen in the inputmemories is now evaluated. If the first transientcurrent and voltage have the same direction, thefault is in reverse direction ("R_Rev"). If thedirections are different, it is in forwards direction("R_Forw").

"Start 1" starts further plausibility checks. The"Block" signals allows to block the relay bydisabling the clock pulse generator.

2.5 Evaluation logic for transient fault indicationOn delivery, the device is set so that it does notpick up when switching operations take place inthe system. A check is performed whether 90 msafter startup the displacement voltage still exceedsthe value set with switch S3.7-8. This value is inthe range between 10 V eff and 50 V eff.

To do so, each "U_fundamental" pulse isprolonged by one period, so that a continuoussignal is present for the duration of the earth fault.If this signal still subsists after 90 ms, the LEDsand signalling relays for “Transient earth faultforward” or “Transient earth fault reverse” are set.

This indication remains stored unit a reset isperformed.

If the condition detected is not a transient earthfault, the transient earth-fault relay is reset.

The suppression of switching operations can bedeactivated using switch S2.1. Since in isolatedsystems the displacement voltage Uo is only brieflypresent and a transient earth fault would not beindicated in that case, the function can bedisabled.

NOTE! The device now detects and indicatesswitching operations.

2.6 Evaluation logic for continuous earth faultsWith S2 in as-delivered position, continuous earthfaults are only indicated and output via signallingrelay if:

• a transient earth fault of any kind has beendetected and the displacement voltage Uo hasbeen present for at least 2.4 s, or

• only the displacement voltage Uo has beenpresent for at least 2.4 s.

The monitoring time can be set incrementallybetween 0 and 2.4 s using switch S2.4-5.

If continuous earth faults are to be indicated only incase of each transient earth fault and thedisplacement voltage Uo has been present for atleast 2.4 s, switch S2.2 must be set to ON andswitch S2.3 must be set to OFF.

If continuous earth faults are to be indicatedregardless of the detection of a transient earth

fault, i.e. with only the displacement voltagepresent, switch S2.2 must be set to ON.

If continuous earth faults are to be indicated only incase of a transient earth fault in forwards directionand the displacement voltage Uo has been presentfor at least 2.4 s, switches S2.2 and S2.3 must beset to ON.

The enable for the indication and signalling ofcontinuous ground faults is stored but drops offimmediately when the displacement voltagedisappears. If the stored transient fault indication isnot reset, the next “continuous earth fault” isindicated and signalled with delay.

The LED for indicating Uo> always lights upimmediately when the displacement voltageexceeds the preset value.

2.7 Reset logicThe violation of internal plausibility checks causesa number of different resets. Moreover, the devicecan be reset locally or by remote control.

Each reset leads to a general reset "G_Reset"which leaves the device ready for operation andset to alert.

Internal reset logic

U_Reset:Used in cases where a current transient has beendetected but no voltage transient has occurredduring the monitoring time (“Blocked” LED shinesfor 500 ms).

TEF_Reset:Used in cases where no transient fault indication isto be output if the fault direction has beendetermined but the displacement voltage is absent(suppression of switching operation).

Auto_Reset:Switches S2.6 and S2.7 can be used to start anautomatic reset after a settable delay of 3 or 10 s.The automatic reset is started as soon as thedisplacement voltage drops off.

In the case of intermittent earth faults, the time isrestarted on each voltage dropoff during theruntime, i.e. the first transient fault is indicated.

External reset logic

Local_Reset:The device can be reset locally by pressing the (R)key on the front panel. On pressing that key, ageneral reset is performed along with a lamp test(all LEDs light up).

Remote_Reset:A remote reset is possible via a binary input. Onactivating the binary input, a general reset isperformed along with a lamp test (all LEDs lightup).

2.8 Binary inputsThe transient earth-fault relay has two wide-rangebinary inputs for the functions “Remote reset”(reset signals) and “Blocking” (freeze signals).

The inputs can be activated with a voltagebetween 24 V and 250 V DC and are protectedagainst polarity reversal.

Jumpers X30 and X31 can be used to increase thepickup threshold from approx. 19 V DC to approx.75 V DC.

As the inputs are galvanically separated, they canbe fed by different battery circuits.

Figure 2.7: Binary inputs

2.9 Operating status LEDsThe device has on its front panel a green LED“Service” and a red LED “Blocked”.

The green “Service” LED shines as long as theauxiliary voltage is present and the programmablelogic device is working.

The red “Blocked” LED shines to indicate thefailure of an internal supply voltage or repeated

interference-induced spurious triggering of a toosensitive current input.

In that latter case, the sensitivity of the inputshould be reduced by means of the switchesS3.3-6.

The alarm relay is of the NC type; it signals aninternal or external failure of the auxiliary supplyvoltage.

2.10 Function test using the front keysBy pressing one of the two keys “Test >“ or “Test<” in the sealed keypad on the front panel, atransient fault can be simulated. For that purpose,“transients” are fed into the measuring systemdownstream of the input transformers, and theappropriate directional indication is output on thebasis of the polarity relationship between the

current and the voltage transient. The testcomprises the filters, the limit stages, theevaluation logic, the indications and the signallingrelays. The test signal is maintained for as long asthe Test key is pressed, which allows to test thefunction of the continuous earth fault indication aswell.

3.5 Internal test using the "Test" keys on the frontThe correct evaluation in the 7SN60 transientearth-fault relay can be tested with the keys"Test >" for forward direction and "Test <" forreverse direction. This test comprises all functions

relating to directional indication and continuousearth fault indication, starting directly after the inputtransformers and as far as the indications andsignalling relays.

3.5.1 Testing the directional indicationOn pressing the "Test >" key, the red LED “>” mustlight up on the tested device after approx. 100 ms(with suppression of switching operations), and atthe same time the “Transient earth fault forward”signal must be output at the relevant relay.

On pressing the "Test <" key, the red LED “<” mustlight up on the tested device after approx. 100 ms

(with suppression of switching operations), and atthe same time the “Transient earth fault reverse”signal must be output at the relevant relay.

The signals remain stored until an automatic, localor remote reset is performed. These functions canbe tested as well after the directional indicationtest.

3.5.2 Testing the continuous earth fault indicationTo test the “Continuous earth fault” signal, the keymust be held pressed down for at least the time setfor this function. The “Continuous earth fault”signal and the relevant output via the signalling

relay will appear after the set time has elapsed.Upon release of the key, the continuous earth faultindication and signal drop off again.

3.6 External test using test equipment 7VP83A function test of the transient earth-fault relay,including a test of the connection wiring and input

transformers, can be carried out with testequipment 7VP8300-0.

3.6.1 Test equipment 7VP83 and connection of the test objectThe test equipment serves to test the transientearth-fault relays 7TG23, 7SN60, 7SN70 and7SN71. It operates with the 230 V AC mainsvoltage. Test current Io and test voltage Uo for thedirectional detection of the transient earth fault aremade available via the terminal sockets. Theconnection of the test current/voltage and thephase rotation of the current are effected bymeans of pushbutton S1. Activation of the testcurrent/voltage is indicated by LED H1.

All safety precautions which apply for work inelectrical installations must be observed duringtests.

Before testing, the current and voltage inputs ofthe test object must be isolated, becauseotherwise the accuracy of the test results can beinvalidated.

The test object is connected to test equipment7VP83 as shown in figure 3.3.

IMPORTANT!Before starting the test, the neutral current pickupsensitivity of the 7SN 60 transient earth-fault relaymust be set to maximum. The displacementvoltage pickup sensitivity must be set to 20 V orless. These are also the settings as delivered.

Figure 3.3: Test setup

3.6.2 Testing the earth-fault direction signalIf the pushbutton of 7VP83 is pressed to “forward”,the red LED “>” must light up on the test objectafter approx. 100 ms (with suppression ofswitching operations), and at the same time the“Transient earth fault forward” signal must beoutput at the relevant relay.

If the pushbutton of 7VP83 is pressed to “reverse”,the red LED “>” must light up on the test objectafter approx. 100 ms (with suppression ofswitching operations), and at the same time the“Transient earth fault reverse” signal must beoutput at the relevant relay.

The transient fault signals remain stored until anautomatic, local or remote reset is performed.These functions can be tested as well after thedirectional indication test.

Connection of the test current/voltage isindependent of the phase relation of the linevoltage. If testing is started during zero crossing ofthe voltage wave, an incorrect directional detectionmay result. In this case, repeated measurementsmust be carried out. The test must also take intoaccount the current settings of pickup thresholdsand functional scope (see also 3.4.3).

3.6.3 Testing the continuous earth fault signalTo test the “Continuous earth fault” signal, the keymust be held pressed down for at least the time setfor this function. The “Continuous earth fault”signal and the relevant output via the signallingrelay will appear after the set time has elapsed.

Upon release of the key, the continuous earth faultindication and signal drop off again.

The LED “Io>“ indicates the presence of thedisplacement voltage as long as that voltageexceeds the set value. This indication is not outputvia relay.
