The Blue Ridge Electric Cooperative has successfully implemented an automated system to collect intelligent electronic device (IED) oscillography reports. They are now participating in a pilot project to develop software that provides analysis of IED oscillography reports together from across their system. During a power system fault, IEDs provide high-accuracy, time-stamped power system measurements in the format of a high-sample-rate oscillography report. Traditionally, these oscillography reports are analyzed in order to understand the specific details of a fault and the IED operation during the fault. Bringing IED oscillography reports together from across a system into one analysis application improves post-fault analysis efficiency and reporting. It also enables the identification of trends over time, leading to improved system reliability. This paper shares the initial results and benefits that Blue Ridge Energy Cooperative has achieved by bringing IED oscillography from across their system together in one application.

Undervoltage protection is commonly used to protect motors from damage during abnormal conditions and to prevent breaker-fed motors from re-accelerating after a restoration of bus voltage. This protection method has the unfortunate consequence of introducing the possibility of a nuisance trip when VT's fail. This paper explores fundamentals of under voltage protection as well as pros and cons of different methods that can be deployed to prevent VT failure from causing costly outages. Case studies will be presented as well as methods which include both monitoring of hardwired VT status contacts and internal relay algorithms.

Transformers experience magnetizing inrush that creates an operating current in the transformer differential protection. Early transformer differential relays had to address the limits of analog technology. Analog filter circuits could extract the second-and fourth-harmonic components of the differential current, and these were used as a surrogate measure for determining if the operating current was due to inrush. Today, we can design algorithms that distinguish directly between inrush characteristics and fault current characteristics. By using the new time-domain algorithms, we can improve sensitivity and speed of transformer differential protection. We can also maintain protection security for transformers built using improved core steels.

We look back at the history of distance protection, explain the first principles, and discuss why our industry settled on designs we know and appreciate today. We look at why, after a century of refinements, a typical distance element still uses heavily filtered voltages and currents and operates on the order of one power cycle. In the second part of the paper, we explain the principles of time-domain distance protection based on incremental quantities, and operating by processing samples of voltages and currents without band-pass filtering to retrieve phasors. We discuss various choices for a time-domain distance element and present test results and field cases of an implementation with operating times of just a few milliseconds. In the third part of the paper, we discuss the feasibility of a distance element based on traveling waves and operating even faster.

This paper describes a single-ended traveling-wave-based fault-locating method that works with currents only. Unlike current transformers, coupling-capacitor voltage transformers do not have a frequency bandwidth that is wide enough to allow measuring of voltage traveling waves for this application. The key to a robust single-ended traveling-wave fault-locating method is to correctly identify reflections from the fault point. For this purpose, the method uses additional information, such as the impedance-based fault location and reflections from the remote terminal and external network elements. This paper presents the single-ended traveling-wave-based fault-locating method in detail and explains how to perform fault locating manually using ultra-high-resolution fault records from any recording device. This paper also presents laboratory test results as well as field cases in which line crews found the actual faults.

Protection engineers often verify relay settings stored in a database. The conventional way to view settings is to open the setting files with software released by the respective manufacturer. Often times, the most commonly used settings are stored in a report for quick access by protection and other departments within the same utility. Depending on the size of the network, creating and updating such reports can be time consuming. This paper proposes a process to automatically create customized reports based on setting files stored in a database. Logics are programmed to read relay settings and intelligently convey tripping information to the relay engineer. The connection to the settings database is facilitated by using an Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) link. Custom queries are utilized to retrieve relay settings by a predefined search pattern. The relay engineer can generate reports based on a specific settings file, relay, position, or substation.

Protection and control relays (also known as IEDs — Intelligent Electronic Devices), play a critical role in substation protection, control and monitoring functionalities. Smart grid deployments need the seamless flow of data between various devices like protection relays, controllers, gateways, smart meters etc. over private and public communication networks. These kind of deployments lead to inherent requirements for secure communication, strong user authentication and authorization to be considered in the design and development of protection and control relays. Securing relay communication is part of the Defense-In-Depth strategy which is essentially a layered security approach. It uses, multiple layers of network security along with secure architecture which is in-line with current and upcoming cyber security standards to protect the power system/substation automation network against intrusion from physical and cyber-borne attacks while connected to public and private networks. Ensuring confidentiality, integrity and authenticity is an integral part of securing data over the network. This can be achieved with strong authentication and usage of cryptographic protocols like “TLS”.

Current transformer (CT) saturation, while a fairly common occurrence in protection systems, is not often clearly understood by protective relay engineers. This paper forgoes the usual physics equations to describe how CTs saturate in a simple and intuitive way. We explain the differences between symmetrical and asymmetrical saturation and how remanence accumulates in the core of a CT. We then describe the CT equivalent circuit and how it results in the familiar CT excitation graph. ANSI ratings of CTs are explained, and we show how to analyze the performance of CTs using simple equations and tools. Finally, we explain how CT saturation can affect relay operation and show how to detect CT saturation in protective relay event reports. Real-world event reports are presented where correct relay operation was compromised as a result of incorrect current values from saturated CTs.

This paper explains the asymmetrical short-circuit interrupting current rating for high-voltage circuit breakers. The paper teaches how the decaying dc component in the asymmetrical fault current affects the breaker, and it explains how the X/R ratio and the relay operating time affect the asymmetrical current breaker rating. The paper briefly introduces, and illustrates with field cases, several ultra-high-speed protection principles that can operate in just a few milliseconds. The paper then explains how to derate a breaker for the relay operating time that is shorter than the standard reference value of 0.5 cycle. The paper calculates the “rating loss” due to fast tripping and suggests that applying customary margins when selecting breakers may be sufficient to mitigate the effect of ultra-high-speed relays without the need to replace breakers.

A power system island is a part of the power system grid that becomes separated from the larger power system and, depending on the actual load and local generation resource output, may continue to function. Islands may occur as substation breakers are opened and power system faults are cleared, separating local demand and generation from the utility's power system. Islanding detection and prevention is an important part of distributed generation (DG). IEEE 1547-Standard for Interconnecting Distributed Resources with Electric Power Systems, recommends that an island be detected and removed within two seconds of an occurrence. Islanding prevention has several benefits, some of which are safety, generator and consumer equipment protection, and power system stability. Islanding detection is the most challenging part of power system islanding protection. There are several methods that are used to detect an island condition. These can be generally broken up into three types: passive detection, active detection and communications-assisted detection. For the purpose of this paper we will focus on communications-assisted detection. Communications-assisted detection has some advantages over passive and active detection methods. There are several different types of passive and active detection but typically each may have a significant non-detection zone (NDZ) or hysteresis in order to compensate for false positives. With communications-assisted schemes, the NDZ can be significantly reduced while still keeping false positives at a minimum. There are several different types of communications-assisted detection. This paper discusses the advantages and disadvantages of the Breaker Initiated Direct Transfer Trip and Phase Comparison methods. The Phase Comparison method offers some unique advantages over Direct Transfer Trip especially when used in conjunction with complex generator interconnections or when multiple sources of islanding exist. The main benefit of the Phase Comparison method is the simplification of the communications channel required. This greatly reduces cost and complexity while still providing the benefits of a communications-assisted scheme.
