  • Stoughton ABSTRACT A fault current magnitude actuated resettable sensing apparatus particularly for resetting the timer of a timer actuated backup fault responsive device which sensing a; paratus response to the steep slope of a decaying actuating signal resulting from the decay of the' current responsivesignal upon opening of the breaker to terminate the fault current whereby the time interval for the resetting of the timer by the sensing apparatus remains substantially constant irrespective of the time of the decay of the actuating signal resulting from the interruption of fault current of any expected magnitude.
  • This invention is particularly intended for use in protective relaying in which backup operation is provided for tripping backup breakers in the event that the primary breaker fails to interrupt the fault current and provides a fast and constant reset time for the backup protection timer irrespective of the magnitude of the fault current.
  • the time for resetting typically would vary from 2 to 9 milliseconds depending upon the magnitude of the primary current at the time of breaker opening. Additionally, if the current is suddenly reduced below pickup but not to zero, then the reset time would be as high as 15 milliseconds.
  • Present reset apparatus requires the use of a backup timer which provides a time delay sufficiently longer than the longest possible expected reset time. Unless this time is provided the backup timer could provide a false actuation of the backup breakers when in reality the primary breaker has succeeded in opening the primary current.
  • the resetting circuit have a substantially constant reset time independent of the magnitude of the primary current which actuates the same. This enables a minimum time setting of the backup protection timer and permits a quicker actuation of the backup protection should the primary breaker fail to interrupt the primary current.
  • the present invention obtains this substantially constant interval by utilizing the slope of the rapidly decaying primary current to actuate the resetting unit.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a backup protecting relaying network, partially in block form, embodying the current sensing quickly resetting circuit of the invention.
  • FIG. 2 is a curve comparing the times required to reset the prior art sensing circuit and to reset the sensing circuit of this invention.
  • FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C illustrate typical time-voltage curves showing the decrease in voltage with three different magnitudes offault current.
  • the numeral 1 designates generally a substation bus energized by three power supplying polyphase lines 2, 3, and 4 from suitable energy sources (not shown) through breakers 5, 6 and 7 respectively.
  • the primary fault protection from the line 2 is the breaker 5.
  • the backup breakers 6 and 7 would be actuated at a time interval subsequent to attempt to actuate the breaker 5 which time interval is sufficient long to indicate a failure of the breaker 5 to en.
  • the primary relay device 8 for actuating the breaker may be similar to that found in U.S. Pat. to C. T. Altfather No. 3,295,019 dated Dec. 27, 1966 and is shown within the dotdash rectangle 4A of the said Altfather patent.
  • the fault responsive signal is applied to the primary relaying device 8 by the current transformers 10, l l and 12 individually associated with the conductorsC, B and A respectively of the network 2. These current transformers are connected in Y circuit arrangement.
  • the negative and positive sequence current is car ried by the conductors l4, l5 and 16 and the zero sequence current by the conductor 18.
  • the breaker failure or backup protecting apparatus 20 includes current transformers 22, 23 and 24 which have their primary windings in series in the conductors l6, l4 and 18 respectively.
  • the output potential quantities of these transfor mers energize the phase splitter and rectifying networks 26, 27 and 28 respectively through setting circuits 30, 31 and 32 which comprise resistors adjustable to determine the current to voltage ratio in the usual manner.
  • the rectified output quantities of the phase splitter and rectifying networks 26 and 27 are connected together in parallel and the resulting signal is supplied to a sensingcircuit and amplifier 34.
  • the rectified output quantity of the phase splitter and rectifier network 28 is supplied to a sensing circuit and amplifier 36 of the same construction as the circuit and amplifier 34.
  • the output quantities of the sensing and amplifying circuits A 34 and 36 are supplied individually to the two inputs of an OR network 38; the output circuit of which is connected to a first input terminal 40 of an AND network 41.
  • the output terminal 42 of the AND network 41 is connected to the input terminal 44 of a timer-amplifier 46.
  • the output of the timer-amplifier is connected to a relaying device 48 which has two sets of contacts 49 and 50. These contacts are connected, as diagrammatically illustrated,-to trip the breakers 6 and 7 respectively in the event of the actuation of the relaying device 48 and closure of the contacts 49 and 50 when the backup protection timer 46 times out.
  • the occurrence of a fault in the network 2 causes the primary relay device 8 to close its contacts 52. These contacts 52 correspond to the contacts 50a of the said Altfather patent.
  • contacts 52 close a circuit is completed from the positive power supply terminal plus through the closed contacts 52, the contacts 52a of the breaker 5 and the trip coil 54 to the negative power supply terminal.
  • Energization of the trip coil 54 in normal operation, will disengage the latch 56 and the breaker contacts open to disconnect the network 2 from the bus 1.
  • Closure of the contacts 52 also completes an energizing circuit through the winding of the relay 58, whereby this relay closes its contacts 59 and completes a circuit through the buffer 64 for energizing the first input terminal 60 of the 0R network 62.
  • the OR network 62 When so energized, the OR network 62 energizes the second input terminal 66 of the AND network 41, and the AND network 41 therefore will initiate the timing function of the timer-amplifier 46.
  • the timing interval of the timer-amplifier 46 is of sufficient duration so that it will not time out and actuate the relaying device 48 to trip the breakers 6 and 7 if the breaker 5 success fully terminates the current flow therethrough. If however, the breaker 5 fails to interrupt the fault current therethrough, the OR network 38 will not remove its operating signal from the input terminal 40 of the AND network 41 so that the timer will time out and energize the relaying device 48. As set forth above, the closure of contacts 49 and 50 trip the breakers 6 and 7 to deenergize the station bus 1 and thereby prevent the flow of fault current from the station bus into the supply network 2.
  • the sensing circuits 34 and 36 remove the operating signals to the OR network 38 in a substantially constant time interval which is substantially independent of the magnitude of the fault current. Both of the sensing circuits 34 and 36 are identical and only the details of the circuit 34 are illustrated.
  • the output winding of the 'current transformer 22 has its end terminals connected to the end terminals of a variable resistor 68 and to the input terminals 69 and 70 of the phase splitter and rectifier network 26.
  • the secondary winding of the current transformer 22 has its center tap connected to an input terminal 71 of the network 26.
  • the single phase input supplied by the transformer 22 is split into two phase displaced quantities by the capacitor 74 and resistor 76.
  • the three phase displaced quantities are rectified in a full wave three phase rectifying network connected to energize the output terminals 72 and 73,.
  • the terminals 72 and 73 are connected across a pair of conductors in busses 78 and 79 of the sensing circuit 34.
  • the conductor 79 is connected through a resistor 80, a Zener diode 82 to the base electrode 84 of a transistor 85.
  • the emitter of the transistor 85 is directly connected to the conductor 78 whereby the transistor 85 is rendered conductive upon energization of the busses 78 and 79 to a potential greater than the breakover voltage of the Zener diode 82.
  • a second transistor 86 has its emitter connected to a source of positive potential +and its collector connected through a resistor 88 to the negative terminal of the potential supply which terminal is also connected to the conductor 78.
  • the base of the transistor 86 is connected to the collector of the transistor 85 through a resistor 85A.
  • the transistor 85 upon energization of the busses 78 and 79 to the breakover voltage of the Zener diode 82, the transistor 85 will conduct and base current will flow through the transistor 86 which thereupon conducts to raise the potential of the output terminal 90 which is connected to one input terminal of the OR network 38.
  • the conductor 79 is also connected to the base 84 through a timing device or network 92.
  • This network includes a capacitor 94 shunted by a resistor 95 with one terminal 94A of the capacitor 94 and resistor 95 connected to the base 84 of transistor 85.
  • the other terminal 943 of the capacitor 94 and resistor 95 is connected through a Zener diode 96 and a resistor 98 to the conductor 79.
  • the common terminal 94A is connected to the conductor 78 through a resistor 99 shunted by a capacitor 100 and by a solid state rectifying diode 102 all in parallel with the base-emitter circuit of the transistor 85.
  • the diode 102 is connected to limit the reverse voltage which can appear between the emitter and base of the transistor 85.
  • the maximum voltage to which the capacitor 94 may be charged is limited by a pair of Zener diodes which are connected between the conductor 78 and the common connection of the Zener diode 96 and the resistor 98.
  • the current transformer 22 will be energized and provide an alternating potential between the terminals 69, 70 and 71 of a magnitude with respect to the magnitude of the current flowing through the conductor A as determined by the setting of the variable resistor 68.
  • This alternating quantity is rectified by the three-phase full wave rectifying network of the phase splitter and rectifier circuit 26.
  • the rectified potential of a magnitude proportional to the IA current will appear between the output terminals 72 and 73 and between the conductors 78 and 79.
  • the variable resistor 68 is set so that when the current flowing through the conductor A rises to approximately 1% times the pickup or normal maximum value of current in the line A, the voltage between conductors 79 and 78 will be sufficiently high to cause the Zener diode 82 to break over. Therefore with a value of current greater than the set pickup, the Zener diode 82 will conduct base current from the bus 79 through the transistor 85.
  • the fault also actuates the primary relay device 8 to close its contacts 52 to energize the relay 58, thereby closing contacts 59 to supply a positive potential to the buffer circuit 64 which will actuate input terminal 60 of the OR network 62.
  • This positive potential causes base current for transistor 106 to flow and make it conduct whereby the potential of the second input terminal 66 of the AND network 41 is substantially that of the negative supply. This is the remaining actuating signal for the AND network 41.
  • transistor 108 With both terminals 40 and 66 at negative potential, transistor 108 will stop conducting and cause the potential of the output terminal 42 of the AND network 41 and of the input terminal 44 of the timer amplifier 46 to increase sufficiently to provide base current for the transistor 110 which conducts to cause base current in the transistor 111.
  • Charging current flows through the transistor 111 and the variable timing resistor 114 and the main timing capacitors 1 15 and 116 charge at a rate determined by the resistance value of the timing resistor 114.
  • the primary relay device 8 will maintain the relay 58 energized. Under these conditions both of the input terminals of the AND network 41 will remain energized by the actuating signals and a positive potential will be held at its terminal 42 to maintain the timer in its timing condition with the capacitors 115 and 116 charging. At the end of the timing interval, the critical potential necessary to fire the thyristor 118 will be reached and the thyristor 118 thereupon conducts to render the transistors 119 and 120 conducting. Conduction of the transistor 120 energizes the relaying device 48 which actuates its output relay 122 and the contacts 49 and 50 close, to open the breakers 6 and 7 to interrupt the current flowing in the line 2. This opening of the breakers also deenergizes the substation busses and the loads (not shown) supplied thereby.
  • the timing interval of the timer amplifier 46 should be as short a time as possible in the event of the failure of the breaker 5 in order to alleviate damage to the power systems and yet at the same time the delay must be large enough so that the timer will not time out until the breaker 5 is given time enough to interrupt the fault current therethrough. Under the prior art resetting or timing terminating network, the interval required to do this increased as the magnitude of the fault current increased. Therefore, the timer was adjusted to provide a delay sufficient to accommodate the longest expected resetting or terminating time which as indicated in FIG. 2 could exceed 8 milliseconds and as explained above could under the circumstances where the current did not decrease to zero be as long as upwards of 15 milliseconds.
  • the resetting or terminating time is rendered from a practical viewpoint independent of the pickup or fault current magnitude which initiated the timing operation.
  • this interval will remain between 1 and 2 milliseconds for a multiple of pickup current between 8 and 40 with a maximum time of only 3.2 milliseconds at a fault current two times pickup. This permits a great reduction of the timing interval which must be provided by the timeramplifier 46 and thereby greatly lessens the danger of substantial damage to the power systems.
  • FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C show the time for the voltage between the conductors 78 and 79 to reach zero potential for multiples of pickup current FIG. 3A, 10 multiples of pickup current, FIG. 3B, and 30 multiples of pickup current, FIG. 3C.
  • the zero point of time being of course when the primary current reached its zero value time t in each of the FIGS. 3A, 3B and 3C.
  • the sensing circuit of this invention does not, upon the potential between the conductors 78 and 79 reaching a .value less than the breakover of Zener diode 82 remove the positive output potential applied by the output terminal 90 to the R network 38 and thereby reset or terminate further timing of the timer 46, but rather utilizes the initial rapidly decaying portion of the voltage curve to terminate the conduction of the transistors 85 and 86 and the removal of the positive output potential to the OR network 38.
  • the capacitor 94 was charged through the resistor 98, Zener diode 96 and base to emitter of the transistor 85.
  • the magnitude of the resistance of the resistor 98 is small and the capacitor 94 therefore assumes, with a minimum time delay, a charged condition in which the potential thereacross is substantially equal to the potential between the conductors 78 and 79 minus the drop across the'Zener diode 96 (which may for example be 9.1 volts as compared to the 6.8 volt drop across the Zener diode 82).
  • Any small decreases in the potential between the busses 78 and 79 will be followed by a comparable discharge of the capacitor 94 through the shunt connected resistor 95. Small increases will, or course, be taken care of in the same manner in which the capacitor 94 is originally charged.
  • the Zener diode 96 has a small forward drop as for example six-tenths of a volt so that as soon as the potential of the conductor 79 drops to six-tenths of a volt below the potential of the terminal 94B, the capacitor 64 commences to discharge through the Zener diode 96, the resistor 98, a resistor 93 connected across the busses 78 and 79 and the resistor 99 and/or the diode 102 to the other terminal 94A of the capacitor 94.
  • the capacitor 94 would discharge through the resistor 95 at a similar rate to that of the rectified voltage and the sensing circuit and amplifier 34 would not terminate its signal to the 0R network 38 and no resetting of the timer 46 would result.
  • the timer 48 would continue to time out its interval and trip the breakers 6 and 7.
  • the time required for the sensing circuit to reset subsequent to opening of the breaker would, as indicated in FIG. 2, vary from a maximum of 3.2 milliseconds at two multiples of pickup current to a minimum of L2 milliseconds at 40 multiples of pickup current.
