2. General
The WIP1 is a self-powered time overcurrent relay with multi-characteristics and including earth fault protec-
tion. Definite time and inverse time tripping characteristics can be selected.
Due to its wide setting ranges, the tripping characteristic can be selected to protect a wide variety of different
equipment.
The WIP1 does not require any aux. voltage supply, consequently it can also be used for switchboards with-
out auxiliary power supply. It takes its power supply energy from the C.T. circuits and provides the tripping
pulse energy to the circuit breaker.
The WIP1 is a robust protective device that is designed for a long-time operation with minimum maintenance
efforts even under extreme climate conditions. Our experience with WI Line self-powered protective relays
shows that the MTBF („Mean Time Between Failures“) is approx. 200 years (calculated based on data up to
year 2012), and there are WIP1 relays being in service at our customers’ sites for more than 22 years even
under harsh climate conditions.

Signal inputs
Signal inputs for blocking and protection (terminals 14 and 17) for fast trip (terminals 32 and 33) as well as
external reset (terminals 14 and 15) can be activated by applying an external voltage. (Voltage level: see
“Signal inputs” in Chapter 9.)
Instantaneous means, a trip is initiated as soon as the minimum current is available (lowest power
supply value adjustable).
After activation means, the high-speed tripping function only is activated if one of the phase
currents exceeds the set value.
The fast trip input can be applied for e.g. arcing fault detectors.
Reset
After a trip event the alarm relay is reset and the LED extinguishes when voltage is applied (see also
chapter 6.9 “Reset”. For the voltage level: see “Signal inputs” in Chapter 9).
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 14
Manual WIP1 Woodward
Potential free contacts (relay 1/latching) terminals (23, 24, 28 and 24, 25, 26)
For applications where a higher trip output energy is required, a bi-stable relay with two potential free
changeover contacts is provided in the trip circuit. After the relay has tripped, the contacts remain in trip
position until reset by the <RESET> push button.
Example:
When using DC coils it has be observed that the breaking capacity of the output contacts is not unlimited
(see chapter 7).
In case the coil burden is higher than the contact breaking capacity, the following circuit arrangement can be
used:
By connecting a trip contact of the WIP1 and an aux. contact of the C.B. in series it is prevented that the
WIP1 contact is arcing so that safe switching off is guaranteed.
Watchdog (Terminals 29, 30, 31):
For continuous supervision of the program flow a “hardware watchdog” is installed. In case of processor
failure, the watchdog is activated after detection of a specific minimal current. The self-supervision relay
is a working current relay.

5. Working Principle
5.1 Current Transformer Inputs
The alternating currents induced by the main current transformers provide the WIP1's supply energy and
form the measuring value. The measuring currents are galvanically isolated via the input transformers,
decoupled from high-frequency interferences by analog RC-filters and then converted into current
proportional voltages. The noise signals caused by inductive and capacitive coupling are suppressed by an
analog R-C filter circuit. The analog voltage signals are fed to the A/D-converter of the microprocessor and
transformed to digital signals through Sample-and-Hold-circuits. The analog signals are sampled at 50 Hz
(60 Hz) with a sampling frequency of 800 Hz (960 Hz), namely, a sampling rate of 1.25 ms (1.04 ms) for
every measuring quantity. (16 samples per period).
_Internal_Fault__

Note that some functionality is already available below 0.5 A (for exact data see 9.2). In particular, the
automatic reset has to be mentioned here from the user’s point of view. (See description in Chapter 6.9
“Reset”.)
The WIP1 normally shows the menu for parameter settings. This allows for configuring the relay
“offline”, i. e. without having it connected to the substation.
However, if the WIP1 had tripped and therefore switched off its power supply via the CTs, then it
shows the Fault Memory menu after pressing the <DISPLAY ON> button.
Note the following for WIP1-1 and WIP1-2/3 without dual-power option:
If the maximum phase current is between approx. 0.35 A and 0.5 A it can
happen that after pressing the <DISPLAY ON> button the WIP1 tries to
enter the CT-Powered Mode although the power supply is not sufficient for
this.
One can recognize this activity by the fact that the display shows nothing
but a “–” character.
In this case entering the offline mode is only possible after the CT current
has been reduced below approx. 0.3 A (e. g. by simply disconnecting
the WIP1).
The dual power source makes the relay operational independently of the supply via the CTs. Moreover,
there is an extended setting range for the phase overcurrent protection, the lowest possible pickup threshold
is 0.2 A.
The dual-power will make the relay n-1 secure, because the electrical power that the relay requires for
operation is taken either from the dual power source or from the CTs.

5.5.2 Display
All setting and measuring values as well as fault data are shown in the LC display.
5.5.3 LED
The trip status is indicated by the LED at the front. If the relay has tripped, the LED flashes and can be
switched off by pressing any push button. Refer to chapters 6.7.4 and 6.9.
The push buttons <SELECT/RESET>, <+>, <-> and <DISPLAY ON> can be activated without removing the
transparent cover by simply using a pin or screw driver.

Manual WIP1 Woodward
First of all it must be established how much force is required to cause the C.B. to trip. This force must be
converted to electric energy. It can also be established by measurement. This value is very important.
Many coils are defined by way of their rated data such as rated voltage, rated current, internal resistance
and/or permissible on-period. These data do not permit any conclusions regarding the usability of a coil as
the tripping capacity with rated data is usually much higher than is necessary for safe tripping.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 20
Manual WIP1 Woodward
The two diagrams above show the two different tripping methods. In Figure 5.2 the tripping coil is supplied
directly by the current transformer. In Figure 5.3 tripping is effected via an internal supply transformer. The
result is that with tripping current > 12 x In the coil resistance must not be smaller than
17 Ohm. Once it has been established that the tripping current is smaller than 12 x In, the minimum possible
coil resistance can be derived from Figure 5.4.
Figure 5.5: Circuit diagram of the secondary C.T. side and magnetizing curve
During normal operation the load of the current transformer is only the WIP impedance and the impedances
of the connection cables. In case of tripping, the tripping coil also affects the transformer. Under any
circumstances it must be prevented that this load has the effect that the transformer gets into saturation to
such an extent that the current flowing through the coil becomes too low to ensure definite tripping.
The secondary transformer current Isec is proportional to the primary transformer current and is a function of
the transformation ratio. This current is divided into the magnetization current of the transformer and a
current IL which flows through the current paths of the overcurrent protection system.
The flux Ф is proportional to the voltage UL and linked to the magnetization current Iµ via the magnetization
curve. As from the value Фs the transformer moves into saturation. As a result the magnetization current
grows overproportionally and the load current decreases at the same rate. So when the transformers are
dimensioned it must be taken into account that with a known resistance Z L the current IL is still sufficient for
tripping the coil. For this reason, the rated current of the tripping coil must be inserted for I Sp in the
calculation below. As the coil current ISp is a direct current, it must be converted into an effective AC value
by means of eq. 1 or eq. 2 (see below). The result is, at the same time, the lowest switching point for
possible tripping.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 21
Manual WIP1 Woodward
The voltage UL where the flux reaches the value Фs is called Umax in the following. Up to this point the
transformer is still working in its precision class and the current IL is nearly as high as current Isec.
The impedance ZLmax results from the WIP impedance, the cable impedances and the resistance of the
tripping coil during tripping of the WIP1.
The impedance of WIP1 for the respective pickup value can be found in Figure 5.6 or Figure 5.7.
The resistance of the tripping coil can be determined by measuring, or calculated from the rated data of the
coil.
If a transformer is loaded with its rated impedance ZN, the max. power of the C.T. can be determined as
follows:
First of all an explanation for the definition of the C.T. data:
Class: 10P20;
Class 10 P 20
Tolerance 10%
Protection transformer (P)
ü (overcurrent factor)
SN: Rated power with rated ohmic resistance and rated current
𝑆𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝑈𝑚𝑎𝑥 ∙ ü ∙ 𝐼𝑁𝑠𝑒𝑐
with ü: overcurrent factor of the current transformer eq. 5
The equation
𝑆𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝑍𝑁 ∙ (𝐼𝑁 ∙ ü)2 eq. 6
can be used to calculate the rated impedance of the current transformer as follows:
𝑆
𝑍𝑁 = (ü∙𝐼𝑚𝑎𝑥)2 eq. 7
𝑁
And finally, the rated power of the transformer can be calculated as follows:
𝑆𝑁 = 𝑍𝑁 ∙ 𝐼𝑁2 eq. 8
Caution:
With a setting value ≥ 12 x IN the resistance of the tripping coil must not be smaller than 17 Ω.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 22
Manual WIP1 Woodward
𝑆𝑚𝑎𝑥 = 𝑆𝑛 ∙ ü2 eq. 9
This means the result for Smax must not be higher than 1000 VA.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 23
Manual WIP1 Woodward
As the rated current of the coil is a direct current, the setting value for the WIP1 for tripping with a single-
phase fault must be calculated as per eq. 1. This results in a setting value of 0.5 A.
𝑃𝑁 10𝑊
𝑅𝑆𝑝 = 2 = (0.45𝐴)2 = 49.4Ω
𝐼𝑆𝑝
Zmax = 57.9Ω.
If a current transformer class 10P10 is used the resulting overcurrent factor is ü = 10. This permits
calculation of the maximum power of transformer Smax in accordance with eq. 5.
289.5𝑉𝐴
𝑍𝑁 = = 2.9Ω
(10 ∙ 1𝐴)2
And finally, eq. 8 can be used to calculate the rated power of the transformer.
Equation 9 must now be used to check whether the WIP1 is possibly overloaded.

The diagram above shows the limit value of the load to which the WIP1 may be subjected in case of a short
circuit. In the event that the transformer power nevertheless exceeds the limit value, it is possible to connect
resistors in series into the secondary circuit.

6.5.4 Reset Mode for Inverse Time Tripping Characteristics for Phase Overcurrent
Element
>>>Reset-Modus<<
t_=_300s________
To ensure tripping, even with recurring fault pulses (packing faults) shorter than the set trip delay, the reset
mode for inverse time tripping characteristics can be switched over. For adjustment t = 60 s or 300 s, the
tripping time is maintained accordingly and only reset after 60 s or 300 s faultless condition. This function is
off if t is set to 0. With breaking fault current, the trip delay is reset immediately and started again at recur-
ring fault current.
>>Minimal_time<<
>>tImin_=_0.1_s<
Note:
The minimum time cannot be set lower than the shortest trip delay of a tripping characteristic.
The latter depends on the multiplier of a tripping characteristic.
Example: selected characteristic x^4-time
Factor: 0.8 (see Figure 9.11)
The lowest adjustable minimum time then amounts to 0.16 s. This value is automatically increased if the
multiplier of the characteristic is increased.

In this case alarm means that tripping of the latched re-lay at the electric impulse output and activation of the
LED are prevented. Exceeding of the pickup value incl. expiring of the tripping time is here regarded as
activation only.

The LED reset can be done by activating the reset function (please refer to chapter 6.9)
Alarm:
The relay 2 energizes, when a pick-up value of the following protection elements is exceeded
(only for WIP1-2, WIP1-3 available).
Trip:
The relay 2 energizes, when the tripping time of the following protection elements is elapsed. At the same
time relay 1, the electric pulse output and the flag indicator output are activated.

6.9 Reset
There are four possibilities for resetting the WIP1 as well as the relay 1/latched.
The parameter setting mode under menu item Tripping type/ Relay configuration offers the parameter Reset.
Here once can choose whether the LED and the bistable relay 1 can be reset automatically or manually.
Manual Reset
If the display is on by pressing the <SELECT/RESET> push button for some time (about 3 s). Reset are: the
display, LED and the bistable relay 1.
Note: The manual reset function can be bounded in “battery mode” at temperatures below 0 °C. To avoid this
behavior please press the button “DISPLAY ON” at the same time
Automatic Reset
In case of automatic resetting the bistable relay 1 and the LED are reset if sufficient current is fed by the
current transformers.
WIP1-1:
The LED extinguishes and the bistable relay 1 is reset if sufficient current is available to put the WIP1-1 into
function, i. e. already below the 0.5 A limit for the CT-powered mode. (For operating modes, see 5.4.1.
Exact current values are given in Chapter 9.2 “Setting Ranges and Steps”.)
WIP1-2/WIP1-3:
The LED extinguishes and the bistable relay 1 is reset if the auxiliary power supply is switched on (dual-
powered) and the phase current is higher than 0,05 A (=5%⋅In). Without dual-power, the behavior is the
same as described for the WIP1-1.
Automatic resetting can only take place approx. 3 s (±1 s) after a tripping action. This does take possible
switch failure times into account.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 39
Manual WIP1 Woodward
In addition, with automatic resetting it is not the fault memory that is displayed upon activation of the relay by
the transducer current, but the date and time.
External Reset
Applying voltage resets the signal relay and extinguishes the LED. (Voltage level: see “Signal inputs” in
Chapter 9.)
The Display reads:

This mode can only be entered in battery operation, i.e. when there is no current flowing.
By pressing push button <SELECT/RESET> the test mode is entered and the password queried.
>>>Relay_Test<<<
_Password:_xxxx_
Pre-condition for entering the relay test mode is that the test current has been applied within 30 s. If the time
has elapsed, the program returns to the standard mode and the display shows:
>>>PROTECTION<<<

After entering the correct password, the trip mode starts upon the following inputs.
>>TEST_CURRENT<<
>>SET_TO_>1Amp<<
When 1 A is reached, test of the relay begins. The protection function is blocked through the test procedure
because exceeding of the set threshold would result in tripping. The display shows:
>>>Relay_Test<<<
>>>is_running<<<
These outputs are controlled for 150 ms and since they are controlled by a common processor signal, they
can only be tested together. The alarm relay remains energized.

Note: Where test currents >2.5 x IN are used, the thermal withstand
capability of the current paths has to be considered (see Technical Data).
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 45
Manual WIP1 Woodward
For this purpose the parameter “Blocking Function” in the menu “Signal input blocking” for the high set
element must be set to “Yes”. Then the terminals 14 and 17 are supplied with auxiliary voltage
(e.g. 110 V DC).
The time delay tI> should be set to EXIT for this test. Inject a test current which could cause a high set (I>>)
tripping. Observe that there is no trip and alarm for the high set element.
Remove the auxiliary supply voltage from the blocking input. Inject a test current to trip the relay (message
“TRIP” on the display). Interrupt the test current.
These terminals may only be supplied with voltage for a maximum of 2 min.
Because of its powerful combined indicating and measuring functions, the WIP1 relay may be tested in the
manner of a primary injection test without extra expenditure and time consumption.
In actual service, for example, the measured current values on the WIP1 relay display may be compared
phase by phase with the current indications of the ammeter of the switchboard to verify that the relay works
and measures correctly.
DOK-TD-WIP1E Rev. J 46
Manual WIP1 Woodward
Possibility to make settings or read information from the display even without sufficient supply from
the C.T.s
Some information is stored as buffered (i. e. non-volatile) data in the relay’s internal memory, in
particular:
o System time
o Elapsed energizing time for detecting intermediate faults. (60s/300s).
o Fault information
o Checksums for enhanced self-tests to detect potential hardware faults
When the relay is switched on, the following information can be displayed by means of the CT current or by
pressing the key <Display On>.
ISEG____00.00.00
WIP1____00:00:00
The figure indicating the year might perhaps show undefined values.
In cases the error memory fails and the energizing time has perhaps elapsed, the following text is displayed:
>>Loss_of_Data<<
>>Press_Reset<<<
The information will be indicated until the key <SELECT/RESET> has been pressed for 3 s; thereafter the
following is displayed:
>>Faultmemory<<<
>>>>cleared<<<<<
If during this process the CT current exceeds a value of 0.5 A in one phase, the self-supervising relay
energizes for 1 s.
In rare cases, if data cannot be read due to an internal fault, the following is displayed:
>Internal_Fault<
>>Press_Reset<<<
If during this process the CT current exceeds a value of 0.5A in one phase, the self-supervising relay
energizes for 1s.
Normally this error message can be reset, which means that it was only a one-off incident.

8. Maintenance
Maintenance testing is generally done on site at regular intervals. These intervals vary among users
depending on many factors: e.g. the type of protective relays employed; the importance of the primary
equipment being protected; the user's past experience with the re-lay, etc.
For electromechanical or static relays, maintenance testing will be performed at least once a year according
to the experiences. For digital relays like WIP1, this interval can be substantially longer because of the
following reasons:
The WIP1 relays are equipped with very wide self-supervision functions, so that many faults in the
relay can be detected and signalized during service. Important: The self-supervision output relay
must be connected to a central alarm panel!
The combined measuring functions of WIP1 relays enable supervision the relay functions during
service.

>>>PROTECTION<<<
>>>>SETTINGS<<<<
Note:
Relays which have been out of order for more than one month might show "Battery voltage too low" on the
display when the key <DISPLAY ON> is first pressed. The reasons for this are that, on the one hand, the
capacitors are completely discharged and, on the other hand, the long storage time of the battery.
To test for this case do the following: Wait until the power supply has switched off, then press the
<DISPLAY ON> key again. If "Battery voltage too low" is not indicated again, then the battery is o.k. and the
message had been displayed due to the long storage time.

___too_low______
The battery is housed underneath the front cover of the relay at the lower right corner and is fastened by
plug terminals.
Hazardous Voltage
The battery contacts behind the front cover may cause electric shock. Take
care that the battery change is done in an ESD-compliant manner!
In particular, the following activities are essential:
