Overcurrent" Room Settings

2
00:00:22,344 --> 00:00:28,593
Continuing the introduction of the "Overcurrent" room, this video explains the "Setting" tab

3
00:00:28,906 --> 00:00:32,578
. In this tab, you can configure a series of test-related settings.

4
00:00:33,125 --> 00:00:37,890
The "Voltage Output" is typically used in Directional tests. However

5
00:00:38,203 --> 00:00:43,671
if for any reason you want to activate the voltage outputs during a Non-Directional test

6
00:00:44,219 --> 00:00:50,156
and observe how voltage variations affect the Overcurrent test, you can use this section.

7
00:00:50,547 --> 00:00:56,484
By checking this option, you’ll see that in the "Signal View" window, under the "Setting" section,

8
00:00:56,641 --> 00:01:04,140
the "Voltage group A" option becomes active. Once you tick this box, the activated voltages

9
00:01:04,531 --> 00:01:07,031
voltages will be visible in the "Signal View" window.

10
00:01:07,344 --> 00:01:14,765
In the "Fault Inception" section, the "Angle" defines the point on the waveform where the fault is initiated.

11
00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:19,843
However, this angle is not the angle between the voltage and current.

12
00:01:20,078 --> 00:01:26,015
Instead, it shifts both the voltage and current signals by the same amount.

13
00:01:26,875 --> 00:01:32,421
By adjusting the "Angle" value, you can observe the changes in voltage and current signals

14
00:01:32,578 --> 00:01:38,437
in the "Signal View"window.Keep in mind, to set the angle between voltage and current

15
00:01:38,750 --> 00:01:42,421
, you should use the "Angle" field located in the "Shot Test"tab.

16
00:01:42,890 --> 00:01:49,374
In the "Pickup Drop-off Contact" section, the "Trigger On" field allows you to select which "Contact"

17
00:01:49,688 --> 00:01:56,406
should be used to perform the "Pickup Drop-off" test.This option is especially useful in cases where the relay

18
00:01:56,563 --> 00:02:02,265
does not have a dedicated "Pickup" contact.In such relays, by reducing the trip time to zero,

19
00:02:02,578 --> 00:02:05,781
you can approximately determine the pickup current

20
00:02:05,928 --> 00:02:13,116
However, if you don’t want to modify the relay settings, and the relay has a "Pickup LED" or a "Pickup Flag"

21
00:02:13,349 --> 00:02:20,301
you can manually issue the "PickUp" and "DropOff" commands by checking the "Space Key Press" option

22
00:02:20,771 --> 00:02:26,318
and pressing the "Space" key. Pressing the "Space" key at the moment of "PickUp"

23
00:02:26,553 --> 00:02:33,193
and pressing it again at the moment of "DropOff", allows you to perform a "PickUp-DropOff" test manually.

24
00:02:33,584 --> 00:02:40,224
. Additionally, by enabling the "Considering chatter" option, the software will recognize

25
00:02:40,249 --> 00:02:47,826
any rapid changes in the relay’s "PickUp-DropOff" contact as "Multi PickUp" or "Multi DropOff" events.

26
00:02:48,037 --> 00:02:53,583
In the "Add to Current Signal" section — if you want to simulate a transient condition

27
00:02:53,896 --> 00:03:00,693
for the current waveform, and test the transient overcurrent — you can enable the "DC Decay" option

28
00:03:01,005 --> 00:03:06,709
.Then, by setting the "Amplitude" as a percentage, and adjusting the time constant using the

29
00:03:06,865 --> 00:03:13,427
the "1 over tau" value, you’ll see the changes reflected in the waveform — directly within the "Signal View" window.Now

30
00:03:13,896 --> 00:03:18,583
if you also want to add a harmonic component to the transient waveform

31
00:03:18,740 --> 00:03:24,208
, check the "Harmonic" box. Then, set the harmonic order in the "Number" field

32
00:03:24,834 --> 00:03:30,380
define its "Amplitude" as a percentage, and specify the phase angle

33
00:03:31,006 --> 00:03:37,490
Remember  if you uncheck these options, the signal will automatically return to its "Normal" state.

34
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:45,536
In the "Add to Voltage Signal" section, you can apply all of these same settings  to the voltage waveform as well

35
00:03:45,692 --> 00:03:51,786
In the "Stop/Continue" section, by checking the option "Ask Stop Continue of Each Test"

36
00:03:52,099 --> 00:03:57,958
the software will prompt the user after each "Shot Test" or "PickUp-DropOff"

37
00:03:58,662 --> 00:04:02,099
asking whether to continue with the next test or stop

38
00:04:02,881 --> 00:04:10,927
This feature is especially useful when you need enough time to read and verify the test values displayed on the relay.

39
00:04:11,227 --> 00:04:15,914
In the "Directional Algorithm" section, according to the "Directional" relay algorithm,

40
00:04:16,227 --> 00:04:20,210
you can choose between "Memory-Cross Polarization" and "Cross Polarization".

41
00:04:20,758 --> 00:04:26,382
". These algorithms relate to the operation of "Directional" relays in two-phase faults.

42
00:04:26,930 --> 00:04:32,867
By selecting "Cross Polarization", the relay's protection zone adjusts based on the changes

43
00:04:33,101 --> 00:04:38,881
changes in "Line to Line" fault voltage.However, in the "Memory-Cross Polarization" algorithm,

44
00:04:38,961 --> 00:04:46,070
the relay’s protection zone expands symmetrically by a fixed 30 degrees on both sides

45
00:04:46,617 --> 00:04:53,570
.These algorithms are explained in detail with examples in the video related to the "Directional OverCurrent" test.
