The RCS-915E is composed of bus differential protection, breaker failure protection for every
feeder and CT failure supervision.

3.2 Bus Differential Protection

3.2.1 Overview
Two RCS-915AS relays are needed for 3/2 busbar configuration. Please refer to Figure 3-1.

Figure 3-1 3/2 breaker busbar configuration

3.2.2 Fault detection

There are two kinds of fault detection in CPU and MON modules respectively. If the fault detection
in MON module picks up, the DC power supply will be provided to output relay. If the fault
detection in CPU module picks up, the protection element will be initiated. Only when both fault
detection in CPU and MON module pick up, the busbar protection will operate to send trip signal.

The fault detection of busbar differential protection comprises DPFC current fault detection
element and differential current fault detection element. Once the setting is reached, the fault
detection will pick up; furthermore, even if the detector draws off, the DC power supply will be kept
provided to output relay for 500 ms.

3.2.4 Detection of CT saturation

In order to prevent maloperation due to serious CT saturation during external fault close to the
busbar, two kinds of CT saturation detection elements are used. They can discriminate whether
the differential current is caused by CT saturation during external fault. If it is, the differential
protection will be blocked, otherwise it will be enabled.

3.2.4.1 CT saturation detection 1

The first algorithm is a new adaptive weighted anti-saturation algorithm used to detect CT
saturation, whose weighted algorithm will be activated automatically during operation of the DPFC
fault detector element. When busbar internal fault occurs, DPFC differential element (i.e. ΔBLCD)
and DPFC current element (i.e. ΔSI) will operate almost simultaneously. However, when busbar
external fault occurs, as CT does not saturate at the beginning of the fault, operation of ΔBLCD will
be later than ΔSI. Adaptive weighted criterion for CT anti-saturation is thus derived from the
differences of operating time between the two elements.

This criterion utilizes difference between differential current due to internal and external fault with
CT saturation, so tripping speed is very fast for internal fault and evolving external to internal fault.

3.2.4.2 CT saturation detection 2

The second algorithm is harmonic restraint algorithm used to detect CT saturation. CT saturation
can be discriminated by waveform of differential current harmonics during external fault.
Anti-saturation capability of this detector is also very high. Moreover, the relay can operate to trip
the faulty busbar quickly even if in the extreme case of evolving internal fault on the same phase
after CT saturation during external fault.

Figure 3-3 Waveform of CT saturation during external three phase fault

Figure 3-3 shows current waveforms recorded in dynamic simulation laboratory with serious CT
saturation under external three phase fault. There is no misoperation in this extreme case.

Figure 3-4 Internal fault oscillogram accompanied by CT saturation

Figure 3-4 shows oscillograms recorded in dynamic simulation lab under internal fault
accompanied with heavy CT saturation. In this case the differential protection operates within 10
ms including 5 ms operating time of output relay.

3.2.5 Scheme logic

Figure 3-5 Logic diagram of busbar differential protection

Note!

When ΔBLCD element operates earlier than ΔSI element, adaptive weighted

anti-saturation algorithm output “1”.

3.3 Breaker Failure Protection (BFP)

Breaker failure protection integrating breaker failure protection relay is applied to every feeder
connected to busbars. BFP can be initiated by tripping contact of breaker failure protection relay
when circuit breaker of any feeder is fail to opened after a certain delay. When RCS-915E receives
the binary input, BFP will operate to trip all feeder connected to the busbar after a little delay.

3.4 CT Circuit Failure Supervision (CTS)

1. If zero sequence of any feeder 3I 0 is higher than 0.25Φ max + 0.04 I N , CT circuit failure alarm

of this feeder will be issued after 5 s. The criterion is available only if logic setting

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 13

Chapter 3 Protection Description

[En_Unbal_SensCTS] is set to “1”.

2. If differential current is higher than current setting of CT circuit failure, CT circuit failure alarm
of this feeder will be issued after 5 s

Whether busbar differential protection is blocked or not when CTS occurs can be selected by
setting logic setting [En_CTS_Blk_BBP]. Please refer to Chapter 7.

When the current circuit resumes to normal condition, CT circuit failure alarm can be reset by
pressing reset button on the panel to energize binary input or reset automatically by setting logic
setting [En_AutoRecov_SensCTS] to “1”.

Supervision

Chapter 4 Automatic Supervision

4.1 General Description
Though the protection system is in non-operating state under normal conditions, it is waiting for a
power system fault to occur at any time and must operate for the fault without fail. When
equipment is in energizing process before the LED “HEALTHY” is on, the equipment will be
checked to ensure no errors. Therefore, the automatic supervision function, which checks the
health of the protection system when startup and during normal operation, plays an important role.

The numerical relay based on the microprocessor operations is suitable for implementing this
automatic supervision function of the protection system.

In case a fault is detected during initialization when DC power supply is provided to the equipment,
the equipment will be blocked, which means relay is out of service. Therefore you must
re-energize the relays or reset CPU module by restarting equipment to make relay back into
service.

When a failure is detected by the automatic supervision, it is followed with corresponding LCD
message, corresponding LED indication will be lightened and corresponding alarm contact outputs
will be energized. At the same time event recording will record the failure alarm which can be
viewed in event recording report and be printed.

The RCS-915 series implements the automatic supervision function taking advantage of this
feature based on the following concept:

n The supervision function should not affect protection performance

n When a failure occurs, it should be able to easily identify the location of failure.

4.2 Relay self-supervision

RCS-915E has CPU module and MON module needed to supervise and the two modules have
the same hardware configuration.

1. Relay hardware monitoring

The DSP1, DSP2, RAM, EPROM, FPGA and CPLD chips both on CPU and MON modules are
monitored to ensure whether they are damaged or have errors. If any of the following alarm
information mentioned in the Table 4-1 is issued, the RCS-915 relay will be blocked. The LED
“HEALTHY” will be turned off and the LED “ALARM” will be lightened. Please shut off the power
supply at once and inform manufacture to maintain it, once occurring.

2. Fault detection monitoring

When fault detector in MON module pick up continuously while the fault detector in CPU module
doesn’t pick up, or both in DSP1 (or DSP2) of CPU and MON module pick up continuously. When
any of the following alarm information is issued, the LED “ALARM” will be lightened. Checking AC
secondary circuits including polarity of CT and the contactor of energizing breaker failure
protection can be tried to solve them. If equipment still cannot return to normal condition, please
inform the manufacture.

Alm_PersisFD_DSP2_MONBrd continuously. (BFP protection will be blocked)
Fault detector in the CPU module doesn’t pick up but that of
Alm_BO_FD_MONBrd
MON Module persists continuously.

3. CPU and MON sampling monitoring

AC sampling of DSP chip is monitored and if the samples are detected to be wrong, an alarm
[Err_Sample_CPUBrd] will be issued and the RCS-915 relay will be blocked.

The relay compares the sampling value between CPU module and MON module. If the sampling
including analog input and digital input between CPU module and MON module is detected to be
different largely, an alarm [Alm_Sample_CPUBrd] will be issued and the RCS-915 relay will be
blocked. Please shut off the power supply at once and inform manufacture to maintain it, once
occurring.

4. Check Output tripping circuit

Chips controlling the output relays in the output circuit are continually monitored. If any error or
damage is detected in these chips, alarm [Alm_TripOut] will be given and the relay will be blocked.

5. Check setting

The RCS-915 relay has four setting groups, while only one is active at the same time. The settings
of active setting group are checked to ensure they are reasonable. If the settings are checked to

16 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD

 Chapter 4 Automatic Supervision

be invalid, equipment is blocked. At the same time if there is any summation error of all setting
groups, Equipment is also blocked. After changing active setting group or changing system
settings, BBP settings and BFP settings have to be configured again.

6. Communication monitoring

Equipment has three software modules, which are on CPU module, MON module and HMI module
respectively. There are two communication channels among them, communication between CPU
module and MON module and communication between CPU module and HMI module, which are
monitored to ensure reliable data exchange.

When the following alarm messages are displayed on the LCD, the LED “HEALTHY” is off and the
relay is blocked with the LED “ALARM” being turned on. In the same time, an alarm
[Alm_InnerComm] will be issued. If the alarm [Alm_InnerComm] appears, that means the
communication between HMI module and CPU module is failure.

7. Opto-coupler power monitoring

Positive power supply of opto-coupler is continually monitored. If an error or damage has occurred,
an alarm [Alm_PS_Opto] will be issued.

9. Abnormality alarms of HMI module

When abnormal situation of HMI module resulting from the following reasons mentioned in the
Table 4-5 is detected by self-supervision, it will be followed with an LCD message but no alarm
LED will be turned on. Because the abnormality is slight and not so serious to affect equipment
correctly operation, the abnormality will not be recorded as self-supervision report and the
equipment will not be blocked.

The method checking whether communication cable between front panel and CPU module is
normal can be tried to solve the problem. If equipment still cannot return to normal condition,
please inform the manufacture.

when 32 faults have been stored, the oldest will be overwritten by the latest one. The counter of
the report is from 0 to 249.

The following items are recorded for one fault:

1) Date and time of fault occurrence

The time resolution is 1 ms using the relay internal clock. Initiating date and time is when a fault
detector picks up. Relative time is the time when protection element operates to send tripping
signal after fault detector picks up.

2) Faulty phase

The faulty phase detected by the operating element is showed in the record report.

3) Tripping mode

This shows the protection element that issues the tripping command. If no protection operates to
trip but only equipment fault detector picks up, fault report will record the title of fault detector.

4) Tripped feeder

The feeders tripped are also shown

2. Fault waveform record capacity and information

The relay can store 8 pieces of fault waveform oscillogram. If a new fault occurs when 8 fault
waveform recorders have been stored, the oldest will be overwritten by the latest one. The relay
stores actual samples that are taken at a rate of 24 samples per cycle.

The recording time before fault detector initiation is fixed at 2cycles. The recording time after fault
detector initiation is fixed at 6 cycles without protection operation. If there is anyone protection
element operates, then the recording time will be prolonged to another 8 cycles in order to show
continuous 8-cycle waveform after the protection element operates.

Each fault record consists of oscillograms of following items.

processed parallely for all algorithms during whole process of fault. So the equipment can ensure
very high inherent reliability and security.

AC currents of CT and voltages of VT are transferred to low voltage signals by isolating

transformers and are input to CPU module and MON module. Data and logic are processed
respectively in these two modules with same hardware configuration. The CPU module carries out
functions of protection algorithms, tripping logic, event record and printing. The MON module
comprises general faulter detector and fault recorder. The fault detector will connect positive pole
of power supply of output relays after picking up. The data recorded can be printed and uploaded

The RCS-915E has four setting groups for protection to coordinate with the different mode of
power system operation, one of which is assigned to be active. However, equipment parameters
and system parameters are common for all protection setting groups.

Note!

All current settings in this chapter are secondary current converted from primary

current by reference CT ratio. Zero sequence current and zero sequence voltage

setting is configured according to 3I0 and 3U0 and negative sequence current and

negative sequence voltage setting according to I2 and U2.

6) Protocol

Communication protocol; the logic setting consists of sixteen binary digits and displayed with four
hexadecimal digits.Only the binary digit 0~2 and the binary digit 4~6 are effective.The binary digit
0~2 decides the protocol of the RS485 communication port1, and the binary digit 4~6 decides the
protocol of the RS485 communication port 2. Any binary digit is set to “1”, which means the
corresponding protocol is selected.

of various feeders connected with the busbar. Among these CTs, the most used CT ratio is taken
as the reference ratio which CT correction coefficient is 1. For feeder not connected with the
busbar, CT correction coefficient is 0.

For example, suppose only 3 feeders are connected with the busbar with CT ratio 600:5 (feeder
01), 600:5 (feeder 02) and 1200:5 (feeder 03). CT correction coefficients of feeder 01 and feeder
02 shall be 1 and that of feeder 03 shall be 2. CT correction coefficients of other feeders shall be 0.

Note!

The maximum short circuit current of various CT shall not exceed 30 In. In order to

ensure accuracy, difference of various CT ratios shall not be too high. Maximum

summation of corrected secondary currents (product of actual secondary current

of individual CT and its correction coefficient) of various CT during short circuit

condition shall not exceed 80 In. All current values in calculation and display are

the corrected secondary currents.

If secondary rated currents of CT of various feeders are not the same i.e 1A or 5A, it shall be
announced clearly during ordering.

9.1 Communication with substation automation system
The remote communication can be used for different purposes to enable better access to the
information stored in the relay. Normally, Serial port access and Ethernet are used in the
case.Three communication media are supported by the equipment.

n RS-485 serial port

This port supports full local or remote protection and control access by substation automation
system or other proper software. The protocol IEC60870-5-103 is used for this port. Please make
sure that [Protocol] is set as “17” to select the correct protocol.

Screened twisted pair cable should be used for the connection. Of the three connections, two are
for the signal connections, and the other for the earth shield of the cable. Make sure that the
correct polarity terminal is connected. If the master fails to communicate with the relay, and the
communication parameters match, then it is possible that the two-wire connection is reversed.
Both ends of the cable should be terminated with a 120 ohms 1/2 watt resistor. The screen must
be continuous and connected to ground at one end, normally at the master connection point, and
connected to ground through a 0.1uF/1kV capacitor at the other end.

and off-site configuration. Operating the protection equipment without proper grounding

may damage both terminal and measuring circuitry, and may cause injuries in case of an

accident.

Warning!

Never disconnect a secondary connection of current transformer circuit without

shortcircuiting the transformer’s secondary winding. Operating a current transformer with

the secondary winding open will cause a massive potential build-up that may damage the

transformer and may cause injuries to humans.

Warning!

Never unmount the front or back cover from a powered equipment or from a protection

equipment connected to powered circuitry. Potentially lethal voltages and currents are

present.

n Caution signs

Caution!

Always transport modules using certified conductive bags. Always handle modules using a

conductive wrist strap connected to protective ground and on a suitable antistatic surface.

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) may cause damage to the module.

Caution!

Do not connect live wires to the protection equipment. Internal circuitry may be damaged.

Caution!

Always use a conductive wrist strap connected to protective ground when replacing

equipment circuitry.

Caution!

Take care to avoid electrical shock if accessing wiring and connection protection

equipment when installing and commissioning.

n Note signs

Note!

Changing the active setting group will inevitably change the protection equipment’s

operation. Be careful and check regulations before making the change.

Note!

The protection assembly is designed for a maximum continuous current of four times rated

value.

Note!

Activating the other setting group without proper configuration may seriously affect the

protection equipment’s operation.

10.3 Overview
The settings for each function must be calculated before the commissioning task can start. A
configuration, made in the configuration and programming tool, must also be available if the
protection equipment does not have a factory configuration downloaded.

The protection equipment is unpacked and visually checked. It is preferably mounted in a cubicle.
The connection to the protection system has to be checked in order to verify that the installation
was successful.

The installation and commissioning task start with configuring the digital communication modules,
if included. The protection equipment can then be configured and set, which means that settings
and a configuration has to be applied if the protection equipment does not have a factory
configuration downloaded. Then the operation of each included function according to applied
settings has to be verified by secondary injection. A complete check of the configuration can then
be made. A conformity test of the secondary system has also to be done. When the primary
system has been energised a directionality check should be made.

It is recommended that the auxiliary power circuit wiring should be protected by using a 16A high
rupture capacity (HRC) fuse of type NIT or TIA. For safety reasons, current transformer circuits
must never be open.

4) Connecting to protective ground:

Connect the unit to the grounding bar of the cubicle with green/yellow conductor; cross section at
least 2.5 to 4.0 mm2, connected to the protective Earthing terminal at the back of the chassis.
Attend that the erath wire must be as short as possible. All cautions have to be taken to ensure the
best elecetrical conductivity, particularly the contact quality, stainless conductor. The impedance
between the relay Earthing terminal and the Earth must be less than 20mΩ under 12Volt, 50Hz.
What matters is that the device has to be only grounded at one point. Loop grounding from unit to
unit is not allowed.

5) Installing the optic fibres (if concluding)

Connectors are generally color coded; connect blue or dark grey cable connectors to blue or dark
grey (receive) back-side connectors. Connect black or grey cable connectors to black or grey
(transmit) back-side connectors.

Fiber optical cables are sensitive to handling. Do not bend too sharply. The minimum curvature
radius is 15 cm for plastic fibers and 25 cm for glass fibers. If cable straps are used, apply with
loose fit.

Note!

Always hold the connector, never the cable, when connecting or disconnecting

optical fibres. Do not twist, pull or bend the fibre. Invisible damage may increase

fibre damping thus making communication impossible.

6) Installing the RS-485 serial port communication cables:

When using galvanic connection between protective relay and communication equipment or
point-to-point galvanic connection between two protective relays it is essential that the cable
installation is carefully done. This is true regardless of type of module used; only the possible
length of the cable differs. The factor that must be taken into account is the susceptibility for noise
disturbance, due to that the levels of the communication signal are very low. For a best result, a
cable with twisted pairs with sreen should be used.

RS485 serial communication interface, a termination 120-ohm resistor has to be connected at

each extremity of the bus. Refer to 错误！未找到引用源。.

10.6 Check the External Circuitry

The user must check the installation, which includes verifying that the relay is connected to the
other parts of the protection system. This is done with the relay and all connected circuits
de-energised.

84 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD

 Chapter 10 Installation and Commissioning

1) Checking the CT circuits

Check that the wiring is in strict accordance with the supplied wiring diagram.

Test the circuitry. The following tests are recommended:

n Polarity check

n CT circuit current measurement (primary injection test)

n Grounding check

The polarity check verifies the integrity of the circuits and the phase relationship. The check should
be performed as close as possible to the relay. The primary injection test verifies the CT ration and
the wiring all the way through from the primary system to the relay. Injection must be performed for
each phase-to-neutral circuit and each phase-to-phase pair. In each case currents in all phases
and the neutral line are measured.

2) Checking the power supply

Check that the value of the auxiliary supply voltage remains with the permissible range under all
operating conditions. Check that the polarity is correct according to the instruction manual on the
rear plate of DC board.

3) Checking binary input circuits

Preferably, disconnect the binary input connector form the binary input cards. Check all connection
signals so that both input level and polarity are in accordance with the relay’s specifications.

Note!

The binary inputs may be energized from an external DC auxiliary supply (e.g. the

station battery) in some installations. Check that this is not the case before

connecting the field voltage otherwise damage to the protection may result. The

status of each binary input can be viewed using either DBG2000 software installed

in a portable PC or by checking the front man-machine interface LCD. When each

binary input is energized the display will change to indicate the new state of the

inputs.

4) Checking binary output circuits

Preferably, disconnect the binary output connector form the binary output cards. Check all
connectec signals so that both load and polarity are in accordance with the relay’s specifications.

10.7 Energising the Protection Equipment

Before the procedures in this section can be carried out the connection to external circuitry must
have been checked which ensures that the installation was made correctly.

The user must energise the power supply to the relay to start it up. This could be done in a
numerous of ways, from energizing a whole cubicle to energizing a single relay. The user should
reconfigurate the relay settings. The relay time must be set. The self-supervision function should
also be checked to verify that the relay unit operates properly. The user could also check the
software version, the relay’s serial number, the installed modules, and their ordering number to
ensure that the relay is according to delivery and ordering specifications.

1) Setting the relay time

Refer to 8.4.5 for detailed procedures.

2) Checking the self-supervision function

Refer to 错误！未找到引用源。 for detailed description.

10.8 Setting the Protection Equipment

The customer specific values for each setting parameter have to be available. Each function
included in the relay has several setting parameters which have to be set in order to make the
relay behave as intended. A default value is provided for each parameter from factory.

All settings can be:

n Download from a PC or laptop with DBG-2000 software or remotely by SCADA. Front port
communication has to be established before the settings can be downloaded.

n Entered manually through the local HMI (refer to 8.4.1)

To change settings through the local HMI need a password which is “+”, “◄”, “▲” and “-”
keyboard on the front panel.

Unless previously agreed to the contrary, the customer will be responsible for determining the
application-specific settings to be applied to the protection and for testing of any scheme logic
applied by external wiring and/or configuration of the protection’s internal programmable scheme
logic.

10.9 Establishing Connection and Verifying Communication

This test should only be performed where the protection is to be accessed from a remote location
and will vary depending on the communications standard being adopted.

It is not the intention of the test to verify the operation of the complete system from the relay to the
remote location, just the protection’s rear communications port and any protocol converter
necessary.

10.10 Veryfying settings by secondary injection

Required tools for testing of a relay:

86 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD

 Chapter 10 Installation and Commissioning

n Calculated settings

n Substation congifuration diagram

n The relay diagram

n This instruction manual

n Three-phase test equipment

The relay has to be set before the testing can start. Only the functions that are used should be
tested.

The response from a test can be viewed in different ways:

n Binary output signals

n Service values in the local HMI

n A PC with DBG-2000 software or SCADA or matser station

All used setting groups should be tested. The user can release the functions to be tested and
prevent other functions from operation by setting the corresponding parameters. The user could
also energize the binary input [EBI_BlkComm] to disable communication function to ensure that no
events are reported to remote station during the test.

The setting checks ensure that all of the application-specific protection settings (i.e. both the
protection’s function and programmable scheme logic settings), for the particular installation, have
been correctly applied to the protection.

10.10.1 Current measurement check

This test verifies that the accuracy of current measurement is within the acceptable tolerances.
Checking its magnitude using a multimeter; the corresponding value can then be checked either in
the submenu “CPU VALUES” and “MON VALUES” column or a portable computer connected to
the front communication port with software DBG2000. Apply current to the input terminal of CT
secondary winding from feeder01 to feeder09 of the RCS-915E relay in turn. The way of
connecting wire is shown as 错误！未找到引用源。.

Chapter 10 Installation and Commissioning

The measurement accuracy of the protection is ± 5%. However, an additional allowance must be
made for the accuracy of the test equipment being used.

Note!

To avoid damaging RCS-915E relay, we can’t inject a high value current (such as

4In or more) to the equipment for long time; we suggest that the time in high

current condition should not over 3 seconds every time.

Note!

When test the protection function and settings, please inject as less as test current

or voltage as possible as to reduce interact between them.

Point 2: I TEST 1 = 2.833∠0 0 A, I TEST 2 = 0.4∠180 0 A

Fix the lower current I TEST 2 as calculated and change I TEST 1 current from low to high to make

the steady state percentage differential element operate to trip busbar.

Inject I TEST1 = 0.4∠0 0 A to CT of feeder01 and I TEST 2 = 0.085∠180 A; and then increase I TEST 1
0

by step 0.01 or smaller if possible. Please write down actual value I TEST 1 (e.g.

I TEST 1 = 0.478∠00 A) when the element operates. Please use same way to find actual value

10.10.5 On-load check

The objectives of the on-load checks are to:

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 93

Chapter 10 Installation and Commissioning

n Confirm that the external wiring to the current and voltage inputs is correct

n Measure the magnitude of on-load current (if applicable)

n Check the polarity of each current transformers

However, these checks can only be carried out if there are no restrictions preventing the
energisation of the plant being protected.

Remove all test leads, temporary shorting leads, etc. and replace any external wiring that has
been removed to allow testing.

If it has been necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the protection in order to
perform any of the foregoing tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in
accordance with the relevant external connection or scheme diagram.

10.10.6 Final check

Remove all test or temporary shorting leads, etc. If it has been necessary to disconnect any of the
external wiring from the protection in order to perform the wiring verification tests, it should be
ensured that all connections are replaced in accordance with the relevant external connection or
scheme diagram.

Ensure that the protection has been restored to service. If a test block is installed, remove the test
plug and replace the cover so that the protection is put into service.

Ensure that all event records, fault records, disturbance records, alarms and LED’s have been
reset before leaving the protection.

Note!

The trip circuit should remain isolated during these checks to prevent accidental

operation of the associated circuit breaker.

 Chapter 11 Maintenance

Chapter 11 Maintenance
NARI-RELAYS numerical relay RCS-915E is designed to require no special maintenance. All
measurement and signal processing circuit are fully solid state. All input modules are also fully
solid state. The output relays are hermetically sealed.

Since the device is almost completely self-monitored, from the measuring inputs to the output
relays, hardware and software defects are automatically detected and reported. The
self-monitoring ensures the high availability of the device and generally allows for a corrective
rather than preventive maintenance strategy. Therefore, maintenance checks in short intervals are
not required.

Operation of the device is automatically blocked when a hardware failure is detected. If a problem
is detected in the external measuring circuits, the device normally only provides alarm messages.

11.1 Appearance Check

1. The relay case should be clean without any dust stratification. Case cover should be sealed
well. No component has any mechanical damage and distortion, and they should be firmly
fixed in the case. Relay terminals should be in good condition. The keys on the front panel
with very good feeling can be operated flexibly.

2. It is only allowed to plug or withdraw relay board when the supply is reliably switched off.
Never allow the CT secondary circuit connected to this equipment to be opened while the
primary system is live when withdrawing an AC module. Never try to insert or withdraw the
relay board when it is unnecessary.

3. Check weld spots on PCB whether they are well soldered without any rosin joint. All dual
inline components must be well plugged.

11.2 Failure Tracing and Repair

Failures will be detected by automatic supervision or regular testing.

When a failure is detected by supervision, a remote alarm is issued and the failure is indicated on
the front panel with LED indicators and LCD display. It is also recorded in the event record.
Failures detected by supervision are traced by checking the “ALM REPORT” screen on the LCD.
Please refer to Chapter 4.

When a failure is detected during regular testing, confirm the following:

n Test circuit connections are correct

n Modules are securely inserted in position

n Correct DC power voltage is applied

n Correct AC inputs are applied

n Test procedures comply with those stated in the manual

NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD 95

Chapter 11 Maintenance

11.3 Replace Failed Modules

If the failure is identified to be in the relay module and the user has spare modules, the user can
recover the protection by replacing the failed modules.

Repair at the site should be limited to module replacement. Maintenance at the component level is
not recommended.

Check that the replacement module has an identical module name and hardware type-form as the
removed module. Furthermore, the CPU module replaced should have the same software version.
And the AC and DC module replaced should have the same ratings.

The module name is indicated on the top front of the module. The software version is indicated in
LCD menu “VERSION”.

Caution!

When handling a module, take anti-static measures such as wearing an earthed

wrist band and placing modules on an earthed conductive mat. Otherwise, many of

the electronic components could suffer damage. After replacing the CPU module,

check the settings.

1) Replacing a module

n Switch off the DC power supply

n Disconnect the trip outputs

n Short circuit all AC current inputs and disconnect all AC voltage inputs

n Open the front panle of the chassis.

96 NANJING NARI-RELAYS ELECTRIC CO., LTD

 Chapter 11 Maintenance

Figure 11-1 Insert and withdraw a module

Warning!

Hazardous voltage can be present in the DC circuit just after switching off the DC

power supply. It takes approximately 30 seconds for the voltage to discharge.

2) Replacing the Human Machine Interface Module (front panel)

n Open the relay front panel

n Unplug the ribbon cable on the front panel by pushing the catch outside.

n Detach the HMI module from the relay

n Attach the replacement module in the reverse procedure.

3) Replacing the AC, DC, CPU, OPT or OUT module

n Open the front panle of the chassis

n Unplug the ribbon cable from the target module.

n Pull out the module

n Inset the replacement module in the reverser procedure.

n After replacing the CPU module, input the application-specific setting values again.

Chapter 11 Maintenance

11.4 Replace Button Battery

When the voltage of button Battery on CPU board is below 3 volts (nominal voltage is 3.6 volts),
please replace the button battery to ensure internal clock of CPU board running correctly.

11.5 Cleaning
Before cleaning the relay, ensure that all AC/DC supplies, current transformer connections are
isolated to prevent any chance of an electric shock whilst cleaning.

Front panel cleaning: use a smooth cloth. Do not use abrasive material or detergent chemicals.

11.6 Storage
The spare relay or module should be stored in a dry and clean room. Based on IEC standard
60255-6 the storage temperature should be from –25oC to 70oC, but the temperature of from 0oC
to 40oC is recommended for long-term storage.
