Definitions

  • the operating characteristic of a distance or impedance relay of the step-distance type is a circle on a diagram empl oying Cartesian coordinates.
  • ordinates represent reactance values
  • abscissas represent resistance values.
  • the operating characteristic is a circle centered at the origin of the coordinate axes.
  • the true impedance relay sometimes does not distinguish between a condition representing a line fault to which it should respond and certain maximum load conditions to which it should not respond.
  • One suggestion employs a modified impedance relay which has an operating characteristic in the form of at least one circle which is offset so that the center of the circle does not coincide with the origin of the coordinates on which the circle is plotted. Examples of such a relay are described in Papers Nos. 58-26, and 19 on Compensator Distance Relaying which appear in the June 1958 Transactions, Power Apparatus and Systems, of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers, New York City, and in application of Serial No. 80,941, filed January 5, 1961, now Patent No. 3,173,060, by Robert G. Lakin and assigned to the same assignee.
  • the relay arrangement insensitive to impedance values differing in phase angle markedly from the phase angle of the transmission line being protected.
  • This may be accomplished by means of one or more auxiliary relays or by providing a relay having a non-circular operating characteristic which is proper- 1y contoured.
  • the non-circular operating characteristic takes the form essentially of an ellipse having its major axis lined up with the impedance angle of the transmission line being protected and having a relatively small minor axis.
  • One object of my invention is to provide an improved arrangement for a distance or impedance relay which is selective in operation to trip a circuit breaker as to the phase angles between the line current and voltage at the point where the relay is located.
  • Another object of my invention is to provide an improved alternating current impedance relay having an operating characteristic which is approximately elliptical.
  • Another object of my invention is to provide a relay which will protect a long reach of a transmission line against faults characterized by the line impedance, but be non-responsive to faults of smaller magnitude which present impedances of other phase angles.
  • Still another object is to provide a relay system effecting the above-mentioned purposes by the use of static circuitcomponents.
  • FIG. 1 is a graph representing an operating characteristic of the elliptic type which is characteristic of impedance relays embodying my present invention, plotted with purely resistive impedances along the horizontal axis and reactive impedances along the vertical axis;
  • FIG. 2 is a vector diagram showing certain relationships of currents and voltages in the circuits of my relay arrangement which is useful in the following explanation;
  • FIG. 3 is a schematic circuit diagram illustrative of one embodiment of my invention.
  • FIG. 4 shows an addition which may be made to the circuits of FIG. 3 with the purpose of varying the operating characteristic produced by the latter.
  • the impedance of any alternating current circuit may be represented by a point on a diagram like FIG. 1, where the resistive impedance is plotted along the horizontal coordinate marked R, and the reactive impedance is plotted along the vertical coordinate marked X.
  • the scalar magnitude of the impedance is then represented by the length of the radius vector connecting that point with the origin F of the coordinates.
  • Any straight line, such as FF, drawn through the origin F is the locus of impedances of varying magnitudes, but all having the same phase angle, i.e. all having the same ratio of resistive to reactive component.
  • the magnitude of the impedance on any given line is a measure of the distance from the measuring station to the fault.
  • the very extended power systems now in use there are frequently a number of generating stations at different points, and numerous loads and users scattered all over the system. It is highly desirable that all of these generating sources and users should not be disconnected every time a fault occurs at any point on an extensive system. It is possible to avoid this, if means can be provided to interrupt branches of the system conductors in the nearer vicinity of the fault, while leaving more distant generators and users still connected to the lines and able to function as usual.
  • a distance relay which trips an adjacent circuit breaker only when the impedance presented at its terminals is so low as to show a short circuit within a predetermined distance of it, is able to accomplish this result, since other relays of the system, which are more distant from the short circuit, do not operate.
  • the relay is then set to energize the trip-coil of a circuit breaker for impedance values below the critical impedance.
  • Modern power system networks usually have loads connected to draw current which present to the relay an apparent impedance having a numerical value within the critical line length, frequently called the reach of the relay, but these loads usually have impedances of phase angle different from the line 3 angle. They are, accordingly, represented by points lying off the line FF in FIG. 1 and almost always lying near the R-axis.
  • a relay which operates in response to an impedance having the line phase-angle only when such impedance is below a critical value and which does not operate when it is presented with an impedance of similar magnitude of other phaseangle.
  • the relay In order to achieve this desirable operation it is preferable to provide the relay with an operating characteristic in the form of an ellipse.
  • the curve 9 in FIG. 1 is a schematic representation of an elliptical relay operating characteristic having a foci F and F, F being positioned at the origin of the rectangular coordinates R, representing resistance and X representing reactance.
  • the angle [3 equals tanthe angle of the line impedance.
  • the point G lies on the line FF at an impedance corresponding to the impedance of the section of the transmission line which the relay is to protect.
  • the line FP may represent the impedance presented to the relay by a load plus the portion of the transmission line between the relay and this load, and the distance FP, to the scale used for FF shows the maximum impedance along the line FP at which the relay would trip its associated circuit breaker.
  • the vector product 12 of line current I and the impedance represents the voltage of the transmission line at the relay, and 0 would be the phaseangle between that voltage and the line current.
  • the impedance Z represented by the point G in FIG. 1 is equal to 4 This makes it possible to calculate 2Z l l e and - 2Z.e Z -eZ 1+6 when the desired reach of the relay and the eccentricity e of the elliptical operating characteristic are selected.
  • FIG. 3 shows the principles applied to a single-phase electrical transmission line operating at a power frequency such as sixty cycles per second and having line conductors or wires L1 and L2. This line also may be considered to represent one phase of a polyphase electrical transmission line.
  • the line conductors are divided into a first section LS1 and a second section LS2. These sections are selectively connected at a relay station or point by a circuit breaker CB, which has a trip coil CBT and an auxiliary switch CBI.
  • the switch CBI is closed when the circuit breaker is closed and the switch is open when the circuit breaker is open.
  • a current transformer CT and a voltage transformer VT provide output current and voltage dependent respectively on line current and voltage at the relay station.
  • FIG. 3 shows in schematic form an impedance relay having an elliptical operating characteristic, and arranged to respond to faults occurring on the line section LS1 which in FIG. 3 extends to the right away from the circuit breaker CB.
  • the primary of a current transformer 11 Connected in series with the secondary of the current transformer CT are the primary of a current transformer 11 and the adjustable primary of a compensator 12.
  • This compensator may be similar in construction to the compensator described in the previously-mentioned papers entitled Compensator Distance Relaying. As indicated in the papers, the compensator mutual reactance and an adjustable loading resistor 19 determine the phase relationship between the primary current and the secondary induced voltage.
  • the secondary of the transformer 11 is connected through a suitable full-wave rectifier to apply across a resistor 17 a direct voltage I Z which is dependent on the scalar value of the line current.
  • two rectifiers 14 and 15 have their anodes connected respectively to the terminals of the secondary of the transformer 11.
  • the cathodes of the rectifiers are connected to the positive terminal of the resistor 17.
  • the negative terminal of the resistor is connected to a center tap on the secondary of the transformer 11.

  • a filter capacitor 16 is connected across the resistor 17.
  • the outputs of the compensator 12 and the transformer VT are connected in series across the input terminals of a full-wave rectifier 21.
  • the output of the rectifier is connected across a loading resistor 27 and a filter capacitor 26. In this manner, a direct voltage E dependent on the scalar value of the voltage E appears across the resistor 27.
  • the voltage transformer 18 has a primary connected across the secondary of the transformer VT for energization in dependence on line voltage.
  • the secondary of the transformer 18 through a suitable rectifier applies a direct voltage E across a resistor 25 which is dependent on the line voltage E.
  • the anodes of two rectifiers 22 and 23 are connected respectively to the terminals of the secondary of the transformer 18.
  • the cathodes of the rectifiers are connected to the positive terminal of the resistor 25.
  • the negative terminal of the resistor is connected to a center tap on the secondary of the transformer 18.
  • a filter capacitor 24 is connected across the resistor 25.
  • a rectifier 34 is connected across the emitter and baseof the transistor to pass current around the base-emitter junction when the voltage across this junction is poled to maintain the transistor in turnedofi' condition. This protects the junction against damage due to reverse current flow therethrou-gh.
  • the voltage across the resistor 17 directs a current through a circuit including the collector and emitter of the transistor and a resistor 33.
  • the resulting voltage drop across the resistor is employed to energize the trip coil CBT through the switch CBI for the purpose of tripping the circuit breaker CB.
  • an amplifier AM may be controlled by this voltage drop for the purpose of increasing the energy available for energizing the trip coil CBT.
  • the NPN transistor may be replaced by a PNP transistor.
  • the changes required by such a substitution are well-known in the art.
  • the relay arrangement of FIG. 3 compares the scalar value of IL with the sum of the scaler value of E and the scalar value of E When these compared values are equal, the transistor is turned otf and the relay arrangement is energized in accordance with its balance point or reach.
  • the scalar value of IZ exceeds the sum of the scalar values of E-j-E when the impedance seen by the relay arrangement is less than the balance point impedance and the transistor turns on to trip the circuit breaker.
  • the scalar values controlling the condition of the transistor represent an elliptical operating characteristic for the relay arrangement.
  • a transmission line is divided into sections selectively connected to each other at spaced relay stations or points by circuit breakers.
  • An associated circuit breaker is controlled by three zone relay arrangements.
  • a first zone may extend from the relay station for say ninety percent of a protected line section.
  • the impedance relay arrangement protecting this zone operates with negligible time delay.
  • a second zone extends substantially into the following protected line section and the second zone impedance relay arrangement operates with time delay of say 0.25 second.
  • a third zone extends even further to assure backup protection and the third zone impedance relay arrangement operates with a time delay which may be of the order of 1 to 2 seconds.
  • Each of the zone relay arrangements may be similar to that shown in FIG. 3.
  • the reach" of the relay (the length of PG in FIG. 1) is adjusted to equal the impedance of the desired length of the transmission line. Suitable time delays would be provided for sec- 0nd and third zone operation.
  • a directional element may be provided to disable the relay from response.
  • a conventional directional relay DR may open a disabling contact in the tran sistor input circuit when power flow changes to the nontripping direction. This provision ordinarily would not be requisite for the third zone relay.
  • the input circuit of the transistor also may be rendered ineffective by opening a switch S. If desired the contacts of the directional relay DR may replace the switch S.
  • Another expedient involves the ofifset of the ellipse 9 of FIG. 1 so that the point H coincides with the origin of the diagram as represented by the dotted ellipse 9A.
  • An offset of the ellipse may be provided by inserting a current-derived voltage between the transformers VT and 18 as shown in FIG. 4.
  • a current-derived voltage is obtained from a transducer 41 which may be similar in construction to the compensator 12.
  • the primary of the transducer is connected by conductors 41A and 41B in series with the primaries of the transformers 11 and 12; the link 41C between the conductors being removed under these circumstances.
  • the secondary 42 of the transducer is connected in series with the secondary of the transformer VT to provide a resultant voltage for energizing the primary of the transformer 18.
  • the voltage of the secondary of the transducer 41 may be adjusted to provide an olfset of the desired magnitude and direction.

  • the series resonant circuit includes a capacitor 45A and an inductance coil 46A. If the parallel coil 46 and capacitor 45 are employed an impedance 47 should be provided to prevent a fault on the line adjacent the relay station from rendering the parallel coil and capacitor ineffective.
