Description

Application Scope

REA 421 is a numerical voltage protection for powerful motors, single or double side powered over head and cable middle voltage lines in the distribution networks, middle voltage side of power transformers and income feeding lines. Event Recorder and Disturbance Recorder functions are integrated into the device. Communication with SCADA or substation controller equipment (work station) is available. The connection can be done via serial interfaces through the choice of data cable, modem, or optical fibers.

Data aquisition & remote control functions

Remote measurement

  Measures, processes and archives information about instant and integral values for the analogue quantities of the protected feeder;
Calculates the average “rms” values of the voltage for each second and sends them through the local network to the connected PC work station (WS)
Sends the data to the WS for maximal registered values
The measured analogue values are displayed continuously on the LCD of the device

Remote control

  The function permits direct control of the feeder’s circuit breaker and disconnectors in two ways – by means of SCADA-system (remote control commands from work station PC received trough the local network) or initiated by pressing of spatially designed push buttons “I” and “O” situated on the device’s front panel.

Remote signalization

  REA 421 receives processes and archives the following information:
Primary equipment status change
Warning and alarm signalization received from external devices for relay protection and automation – operation of load shedding relays and auxiliary power supply failure relays, for example
Pick-up and drop-off of the voltage relays of the internal relay protection functions
Trip commands sent to the CB from internal relay protection functions
Alarm signalization related to the remote control function operation (CB or disconnectors) – failure in execution of the remote control command, attempt for not permitted command issuing and etc.
Signalizations for controlled values limit overreaching
The device time synchronizations (by front panel or remotely)
Changing of the working parameters of the device (new configuration, new re-lay protection settings and new parameters for remote control functions)
Clearing of the data from Event Recorder or Disturbance recorder

Event Recorder function

 

The event recorder memory buffer is designed for up to 2000 records.
Each of the records consists of information about the event type, the real time of its appearance (year, month, day, hour, minute, second, second/1000) and in certain cases – some numerical data characterizing the process recorded.
The information recorded is stored in non-volatile memory and can be shown on the device’s display and/or memorized on the PC running the MMI program.
In the unit’s memory the stored event can be found and displayed using the following attributes:
Last stored event
The events stored during the last hour
The events stored during last 24 hours
The events stored during the last month (up to the same moment in the previous month)
The records stored during the chosen day

Disturbance Recorder function

  For each of the event included into the Event recorder can be set to initiate additional more detailed oscillographic data collection. The period of the data collection consist of two intervals pre-history duration and during the fault. These records consist of all measured and calculated analogue values (wave-form), binary inputs and outputs and processing points. The values recorded are measured with maximal sampling frequency of the device. The records from the Disturbance recorder function can be transferred to the connected PC running MMI service program. On the Work station PC (SCADA-system) the information recorded can be added to the archive displayed in graphical way and used for detailed analysis of the primary events and the behavior of the relay protections and primary equipment.

Working in SCADA-system

 

The device can be connected to Work Station in SCADA-system by means of local network. The network is based on RS485 or fiber optic – the respective interface connector is used. The communication protocol is IEC 60870-5-103 / IEC 61850. The device’s data acquisition and remote control functions are performed by means of work station – measuring, signaling, remote control (opening or closing command to the circuit breaker, disconnecttors, earthing switch).
Additionally by work station facilities the device can be configured its settings parameters, can be read and corrected and all stored into unit’s memory data can be archived. Also all data stored by means of “Disturbance recorder” and “Event recorder” functions can be transferred and archived into WS for farther analysis.

Human Machine Interface (HMI)

 

Device’s HMI interface is situated on the front panel. It consists of:
LCD display – 2 rows, 16 characteristics each. The display has back light illumination
Indication zone of 9 LED’s (green LED “READY” and 8 red colored S1 – S8 which are free configurable)
Screen blinkers (7 pcs) free configurable
Functional keypad comprising 10 push buttons
PC optic interface zone for positioning of specially designed connection cable

Man Machine Interface - MMI

 

The MMI program is a 32-bit application intended to work under WINDOWS® operational system. The connection between the device and PC running MMI software is done trough RS232 interface by means of specially designed connection cable. The PC interface cable can be connected to PC COM port or to USB port through RS232-USB converter. The connection is fully isolated.
The PC interface cable can be connected to the device in one of two ways: by the serial port CANON 9 type positioned on the left side of the device or by the serial port positioned on the front side of the device (by means of magnet – optical head).
The PC based MMI program is designed to make the configuration and setting of the relay easier. It can fulfill the following functions:
Reviewing, changing, saving and setting of the relay configuration and settings;
Reviewing and saving of information from event recorder and disturbance recorder;
Remote commands such as: changing of the working setting group; synchronizing of the real time clock; LED indicators acknowledgment; clearing of the events stored into the device’s memory; changing the CB life time ect.;
Remote control of the main measuring possibilities of the relay – analogue and binary outputs and LED indicators ;
Analysis and documentation of system faults;
Printing of the setting parameters, configurations, recorded events and distur-bance data saved into the relay memory.
