2.2.5 Differential Protection for Mini-Busbars and Short Lines

A mini-busbar or branch-point is defined here as a three-phase, coherent piece of con-

ductor which is limited by sets of current transformers. Examples are short stubs or
mini-busbars. The differential protection in this operation mode is not suited to trans-
formers; use the function „Differential Protection for Transformers“ for this application.
Even for other inductors, like series or shunt reactors, the busbar differential protection
should not be used because of its lower sensitivity.
This operation mode is also suitable for short lines or cables. „Short“ means in this
context that the current transformer connections from the CTs to the device do not
cause impermissible load to the current transformers. On the other hand, capacitive
charging currents do not harm this operation because the differential protection is nor-
mally less sensitive with this application.
Since the current direction is normally defined as positive in the direction of the pro-
tected object, this results in the definitions as illustrated in figures 2-39 and 2-40.
The models 7UT613 and 7UT633 allow mini-busbars with up to 3 feeder or lines with
up to 3 terminals (“Teed lines”) to be protected, 5 feeders can be protected using
7UT635. Figure 2-41 shows the example of a busbar with 4 feeders.

Figure 2-41 Definition of current direction at busbar with 4 feeders

The differential protection feature of the 7UT613/63x refers all currents to the rated
current of the protected object. The device is informed during setting about the rated
current of the protected object (in this case the busbar or line), and about the primary
rated CT currents. Measured value matching is therefore reduced to magnitude fac-
tors. The basis for current comparison is the rated busbar current (address 371 I
PRIMARY OP.). If the feeders or ends have different rated currents, the largest of the
three rated currents is used as the basis for the current comparison, and all other cur-
rents are converted accordingly. As a rule, no external matching devices are neces-
sary.

Differential Current Whereas a high sensitivity of the differential protection is normally required for trans-
Monitoring formers, reactors, and rotating machines in order to detect even small fault currents,
high fault currents are expected in case of faults on a busbar or a short line so that a
higher pickup threshold (above rated current) is conceded here. This allows for a con-
tinuous monitoring of the differential currents on a low level. A small differential current
in the range of operational currents indicates a fault in the secondary circuit of the
current transformers.
This monitor operates phase-selectively. When, during normal load conditions, a dif-
ferential current is detected in the order of the load current of a feeder, this indicates
a missing secondary current, i.e. a fault in the secondary current leads (short-circuit or
open-circuit). This condition is annunciated with time delay. The differential protection
is blocked in the associated phase at the same time.

Feeder Current With busbars and short lines, a release of the trip command can be set if a threshold
Guard is exceeded by one of the incoming currents. The three phase currents at each mea-
suring location of the protected object are monitored for over-shooting of a set value.
Trip command is allowed only when at least one of these currents exceeds a certain
(settable) threshold.

2.2.6 Single-phase Differential Protection for Busbars

7UT613/63x Depending on the ordered model, it provides 9 or 12 current inputs of

equal design. This allows for a single-phase differential current busbar protection for
up to 9 or 12 feeders.
There are two connection possibilities:
• One 7UT613/63x is used for each phase. Each phase of all busbar feeders is con-
nected to one phase dedicated device 7UT613/63x.
• The three phase currents of each feeder are summarised into a single-phase sum-
mation current. These currents are fed to one device per feeder.

124 7UT613/63x Manual

C53000-G1176-C160-2
 2.2 Differential Protection

Phase Dedicated For each of the phases, a 7UT613/63x is used in case of single-phase connection. The
Connection fault current sensitivity is equal for all types of faults. 7UT613 and 7UT633 are suitable
for up to 9, 7UT635 for up to 12 feeders.
The differential protection feature of the 7UT613/63x refers all currents to the rated
current of the protective object. Therefore, a common rated current must be defined
for the entire busbar even if the feeder CTs have different rated currents. This common
rated current has been set in address 371 I PRIMARY OP.. It is the maximum of the
rated currents of all feeders set in the device in the data of the protected object. Mea-
sured value matching in the device is thus limited to current quantity factors. No exter-
nal matching devices are necessary even if the feeders and/or the current transformer
sets at the ends of the protected zone have different primary currents.

Figure 2-42 Single-phase busbar protection, illustrated L1

Connection via One single device 7UT613/63xis sufficient for a busbar with up to 7 feeders if the
Summation CT device is connected via summation current transformers. The phase currents of each
feeder are converted into single-phase current by means of the summation CTs.
Current summation is asymmetrical; a different sensitivity is thus valid for different
fault types. 7UT613 and 7UT633 are suitable for 9, 7UT635 for 12 feeders.
A common nominal current must be defined for the entire busbar. Matching of the cur-
rents can be performed in the summation transformer connections if the feeder CTs
have different nominal currents. The output of the summation transformers is normally
designed for IM = 100 mA at symmetrical rated busbar current. The nominal current
at the device input IN Obj = 100 mA is applicable.

Different schemes are possible for the connection of the current transformers. The
same CT connection method must be used for all feeders of a busbar.
The scheme as illustrated in figure 2-44 is the most commonly used. The three input
windings of the summation transformer are connected to the CT currents IL1, IL3 and
IE. This connection is suitable for all kinds of systems regardless of the conditioning of
the system neutral. It is characterised by an increased sensitivity for earth faults.

Figure 2-44 Summation Transformer Connection L1-L3-E

For a symmetrical three-phase current (where the earth residual component IE = 0)

the single-phase summation current is W = √3 times the winding unit value, as shown
in figure 2-45, i.e. the summation flux (ampere turns) is the same as it would be for
single-phase current √3 times the value flowing through the winding with the least
number of turns (ratio 1). For three-phase symmetrical fault currents equal to rated
current 1 x IN, the secondary single-phase current is IM = 100 mA. All relay character-
istic operating values are based on this type of fault and this current.

For the connection L1-L3-E (see figure 2-44), the weighting factors W of the summa-
tion currents IM for the various fault conditions and the ratios to that given by the three-
phase symmetrical faults are shown in table 2-5. On the right hand side is the comple-
mentary multiple of rated current IM = 100 mA which W/√3 would have to be in order
to arrive at the summation current I1. If the current setting values are multiplied with
this factor, the actual pickup values result.

L2-E 3 1,73 0.58 · IN
L3-E 4 2,31 0.43 · IN

The table shows that the differential protection is more sensitive to earth faults and to
double earth faults than to those without earth path component. This increased sensi-
tivity is due to the fact that the summation transformer winding in the CT starpoint con-
nection (IE, residual current (refer to figure 2-44) has the largest number of turns and
thus the weighting factor W = 3.
If the higher earth current sensitivity is not necessary, connection according to figure
2-46 can be used. This is reasonable in earthed systems with particularly low zero se-
quence impedance where earth fault currents may be larger than those under two-
phase fault conditions. With this connection, the values given in Table 2-6 below can
be recalculated for the seven possible fault conditions in solidly earthed networks.

Comparison with the values in the table 2-5 or L1-L3-E shows that under earth fault
conditions the weighting factor W is less than with the standard connection. Thus the
thermal loading is reduced to 36 %, i.e. (1.73/2.89)2.
The described connections are examples. Certain phase preferences (especially in
systems with non-earthed neutral) can be obtained by cyclic or acyclic exchange of
the phases. Further increase of the earth current can be performed by introducing an
auto-CT in the residual path, as a further possibility.
The type 4AM5120 is recommended for summation current transformers. These
transformers have different input windings which allow for summation of the currents
with the ratio 2 : 1 : 3 as well as matching of different primary currents of the main CTs
to a certain extent. Figure 2-48 shows the winding arrangement.
The nominal input current of each summation CT must match the nominal secondary
current of the connected main CT set. The output current of the summation CT (= input

matching.

Figure 2-48 Winding arrangement of summation and matching transformers 4AM5120

Differential Current Whereas a high sensitivity of the differential protection is normally required for trans-
Monitoring formers, reactors, and rotating machines in order to detect even small fault currents,
high fault currents are expected in case of faults on a busbar so that a higher pickup
threshold (above rated current) is conceded here. This allows for a continuous moni-
toring of the differential currents on a low level. A small differential current in the range
of operational currents indicates a fault in the secondary circuit of the current trans-
formers.
When, during normal load conditions, a differential current is detected in the order of
the load current of a feeder, this indicates a missing secondary current, i.e. a fault in
the secondary current leads (short-circuit or open-circuit). This condition is annunciat-
ed with time delay. The differential protection is blocked at the same time.

Feeder Current With busbars a release of the trip command can be set if a threshold is exceeded by
Guard one of the incoming currents. The currents of each feeder are monitored for over-
shooting of a set value. Trip command is allowed only when at least one of these cur-
rents exceeds a certain (settable) threshold.

2.2.7 Setting Notes

General Differential protection is only effective and available if this function was set during con-
figuration of the Functional Scope DIFF. PROT. = Enabled (address 112) . If the
function is not required Disabled is to be set.
Additionally, the type of protected object must be decided during configuration (ad-
dress 105 PROT. OBJECT). Only those parameters are offered which are reasonable
for the selected type of protected object; all remaining are suppressed.
The differential protection can be switched 1201 or DIFF. PROT. in address ON OFF.
The option Block relay allows to operate the protection but the trip output relay is
blocked.

7UT613/63x Manual 129

C53000-G1176-C160-2
2 Functions

Note
When delivered from factory, the differential protection is switched OFF. The reason
is that the protection must not be in operation unless at least the connection group (of
a transformer) and the matching factors have been set before. Without proper set-
tings, the device may show unexpected reactions (incl. tripping)!

Starpoint Condi- If there is a current transformer in the starpoint connection of an earthed transformer
tioning winding, i. e. between starpoint and earth electrode, the starpoint current may be
taken into consideration for calculations of the differential protection. The earth-fault
sensitivity is thus ensured.
If a starpoint is earthed but the earth current is not available, the zero sequence
current is eliminated automatically in order to avoid a faulty reaction by the differential
protection in case of an external earth fault; the following parameters are then omitted.
Equally, the parameters are not available for sides of the protected object that are not
earthed. The device has been informed about the earthing conditions during setting of
the object properties (section „General Power System Data“ under margin heading
„Object Data with Transformers“, addresses 313, 323, 333, 343 and/or 353 and
section „Topology of the Protected Object“ under margin heading Assignment of
Further „1-phase Measuring Locations“).
The conclusion is: If the starpoint of a side of the protected power transformer is
earthed and the starpoint current is fed to the device (via a further 1-phase current
input) you can, nevertheless, leave the default setting for inclusion of the earth current
unchanged in address 1211DIFFw.IE1-MEAS for side 1 on „Yes“.
This parameter can only be altered with DIGSI under Additional Settings. The same
considerations apply to any other or additional earthed sides:
• 1212 DIFFw.IE2-MEAS for side 2 if earthed,
• 1213 DIFFw.IE3-MEAS for side 3 if earthed,
• 1214 DIFFw.IE4-MEAS for side 4 if earthed,
• 1215 DIFFw.IE5-MEAS for side 5 if earthed.
During setting YES the corresponding earth current will be considered by the differen-
tial protection.
In auto-transformers the earth current flowing in the winding can be considered even
if a complete three-phase CT set has been installed as illustrated in figure 2-6, where
instead of measuring location Z3 also the three phase currents can be connected to a
three-phase measuring input of the device. The device then calculates the sum of the
three currents and uses it as earth current. Set address 1216 DIFFw.IE3phMEAS to
YES. It is required to assign the respective three-phase measuring location to one side
and to declare it as earth winding (the side of the auto-connected winding facing the
earth electrode). This parameter can only be altered in DIGSI at Display Additional
Settings.

 2.2 Differential Protection

Differential Current With busbar protection or short-line protection differential current can be monitored.
Monitoring At address 1208 I-DIFF> MON. the monitoring can be set to ON and OFF. Its use is
only sensible if one can distinguish clearly between operational error currents caused
by missing transformer currents and fault currents caused by a fault in the protected
object.
The pickup value I-DIFF> MON. (address 1281) must be high enough to avoid a
pickup caused by a transformation error of the current transformers and by minimum
mismatching of different current transformers. On the other hand, the pickup value
must lie clearly below the differential protection (I-DIFF>, address 1221); otherwise
no differentiation between operational errors caused by missing secondary currents
and fault currents due to short-circuit in the protected object would be possible. The
pickup value is referred to the rated current of the protected object. Time delay
T I-DIFF> MON. (address 1282) applies to the annunciation and blocking of the
differential protection. This setting ensures that blocking with the presence of faults
(even of external ones) is avoided. The time delay usually amounts to a few seconds.

Feeder Current With busbars and short lines a release of the trip command can be set if one of the
Guard incoming currents is exceeded. The differential protection only trips if one of the mea-
sured currents exceeds the threshold I> CURR. GUARD (address 1210). The pickup
value is referred to the rated current of the respective side. With setting 0.00 I/InS (pre-
setting) this release criterion will not be used.
If the feeder current guard is set (i. e. to a value of > 0), the differential protection will
not trip before the release criterion is given. This is also the case if, in conjunction with
very high differential currents, the extremely fast instantaneous value scheme has de-
tected the fault already after a few milliseconds.

Trip Characteristic The parameters of the tripping characteristic are set in addresses 1221 to 1265.
Differential Current Figure 2-49 illustrates the meaning of the different settings. The numbers at the differ-
ent branches of the characteristic signify the addresses of the settings.
I-DIFF> (address 1221) is the pickup value of the differential current. This is the total
fault current into the protected object, regardless of the way this is distributed between
the sides. The pickup value is referred to the rated current of the protected object. You
may select a high sensitivity (small pickup value) for transformers (presetting
0.2 · IN Obj). With reactors, generators and motors the sensitivity can be set even
higher, provided that the current transformer sets are of similar design. A higher value
(above rated current) should be selected for lines and busbars. Higher measuring tol-
erances must be expected if the rated currents of the current transformers differ ex-
tensively from the rated current of the protected object, or if there are multiple measur-
ing locations.

In case of busbars and short lines, the through-flowing current can increase substan-
tially, depending on the system. The unstable I-DIFF>> stage could trip. In such
cases I-DIFF>> should be set to ∞.

Figure 2-49 Tripping characteristic of the differential protection

The tripping characteristic comprises two further branches. The base point of the first
branch is determined by address 1242 BASE POINT 1 and its slope by address 1241
SLOPE 1. This parameter can only be set with DIGSI under Additional Settings. This
branch covers current-proportional errors. These are mainly errors of the main current
transformers and, in case of power transformers with tap changers, differential cur-
rents which occur due to the transformer regulating range.
The percentage of this differential current in this latter case is equal to the percentage
of the regulating range provided the rated voltage is corrected according to the de-
scription of the 2.1.4 in „Object Data with Transformers“.
The second branch produces a higher restraint in the range of high currents which
may lead to current transformer saturation. Its base point is set at address 1244 BASE
POINT 2 and is referred to the rated object current. The slope is set at address 1243
SLOPE 2. The restraint during current transformer saturation can be influenced by this
parameter branch. A higher gradient results in a higher restraint. This parameter can
only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings.

Delay Times In special cases it may be advantageous to delay the trip signal of the differential pro-
tection. For this, an additional delay can be set. The delay time1226 T I-DIFF> is
started if an internal fault in the protected object has been detected by the IDIFF>-stage
and the trip characteristic. 1236 T I-DIFF>> is the time delay for the tripping stage
I-DIFF>>. This parameter can only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings. The
dropout time of all stages is determined by the minimum trip time duration of all pro-
tection functions.
All setting times are additional delay times which do not include the operating times
(measuring time, dropout time) of the protective function.

The increase of the The increase of the pickup value on startup serves as an additional safety against
pickup value on overfunctioning when a non-energised protection object is connected. At address
startup 1205 INC.CHAR.START it can be switched to ON or OFF. Especially for motors or mo-
tor/transformer units in block connection it should be set to ON.
The restraint current value I-REST. STARTUP (address 1251) is the value of the re-
straining current which is likely to be undershot before startup of the protected object
takes place. This parameter can only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings.
Please be aware of the fact that the restraint current is twice the traversing operational
current. The pre-set value of 0.1 represents 0.05 times the rated current of the protect-
ed object.
Address 1252 START-FACTOR determines by which factor the pickup value of the Diff>
stage is to be increased on startup. The characteristic of this stage increases by the
same factor. The IDiff>> stage is not affected. For motors or motor/transformer in unit
connection, a value of 2 is normally adequate. This parameter can only be set with
DIGSI under Additional Settings.
The increase of the pickup value is set back to its original value after time period T
START MAX (address 1253) has passed.

Add-on Restraint In systems with very high traversing currents a dynamic add-on restraint is enabled for
external faults. The initial value is set at address 1261 I-ADD ON STAB.. The value
is referred to the rated current of the protected object. The slope is the same as for
characteristic branch b (SLOPE 1, address 1241). This parameter can only be set with
DIGSI at Additional Settings. Please note that the fact that the restraint current is the
arithmetical sum of the currents flowing into the protected object, i.e. it is twice the tra-
versing current. The additional stabilisation does not influence the stage I-DIFF>>.
The maximum duration of the add-on restraint after detection of an external fault is set
to multiples of an AC-cycle (address 1262 T ADD ON-STAB.). This parameter can
only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings. The add-on restraint is disabled auto-
matically even before the set time period expires as soon as the device has detected
that the operation pointIdiff/Istab stationary (i.e. via at least one cycle) within the tripping
zone near the fault characteristic (≥ 80 % of the fault characteristic slope).
Add-on restraint operates individually per phase, but blocking can be extended to all
three phases (so-called crossblock function). By means of address 1263 CROSSB.
ADD ON it can be determined how long the crossblock should be effective. This pa-
rameter can only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings. Here, too, setting is in mul-
tiple of one AC-cycle. If 0 Per. cycle is set, crossblock is ineffective, i.e. only the phase
with detected external fault will be blocked. Otherwise all phases will be blocked. in
this case the same setting as for 1262 T ADD ON-STAB. is advisable. When set to
∞, the crossblock function is always effective.

Harmonic Restraint Restraint with harmonic content is available only when the device is used as trans-
former protection, i.e. the PROT. OBJECT (address 105) is a 3 phase transf. or
1 phase transf. or Autotransf. or Autotr. node. This function is also used
for shunt reactors if current transformers are installed at both sides of the connection
points.
The inrush restraint function with 2nd harmonic can be switched in address 1206
INRUSH 2.HARM. OFF and ON. It is based on evaluation of the 2nd harmonic present
in the switch-on inrush current. The ratio of 2nd harmonics to the fundamental (ad-
dress 1271, 2. HARMONIC) is set to I2fN/IfN = 15 % as default setting. It can be used
without being changed. To provide more restraint in exceptional cases, where ener-
gising conditions are particularly unfavourable, a smaller value can be set at the afore-

7UT613/63x Manual 133

C53000-G1176-C160-2
2 Functions

mentioned address. The restraint with harmonics does not influence the stage I-
DIFF>>.
The inrush restraint can be extended by the so-called "crossblock" function. This
means that on harmonic content overshoot in only one phase all three phases of the
differential stage IDIFF> stage are blocked. The duration for which the crossblock func-
tion is active can be limited at address 1272 CROSSB. 2. HARM. Setting is in multiple
of the AC-cycle. This parameter can only be set with DIGSI at Additional Settings. If
set to 0 (pre-setting is 3) the protection can trip when the transformer is switched on
a single-phase fault even while the other phases carry inrush current. If set to ∞ the
crossblock function remains effective for as long as high-order harmonics are detected
in any phase.
Apart from the second harmonic, the 7UT613/63x can provide restraint with a further
harmonic. Address 1207 RESTR. n.HARM. is used to disable this harmonics re-
straint, or to select the harmonic for it. Available for selection are the 3. Harmonic
and the 5. Harmonic.
Steady-state overexcitation of transformers is characterised by odd harmonic content.
The 3rd or 5th harmonic is suitable to detect overexcitation. As the third harmonic is
often eliminated in transformers (e.g. in a delta winding), the fifth harmonic is more
commonly used.
Converter transformers also produce odd harmonics which are practically absent in
the case of an internal short-circuit.
The harmonic content intended for blocking the differential protection is set at address
1276 n. HARMONIC. For example, if the 5th harmonic restraint is used to avoid trip
during overexcitation, 30 % (default setting) are convenient.
Harmonic restraint with the n-th harmonic operates individually per phase. However,
it is also possible – as it is for the inrush restraint – to set the protection in such manner
that not only the phase with harmonic content overshoot but also the other phases of
the differential stage I-DIFF> are blocked (so-called "crossblock" function). The du-
ration for which the crossblock function is active can be limited at address 1277
CROSSB. n.HARM. Setting is in multiple of the AC-cycle. This parameter can only be
set with DIGSI at Additional Settings. If set to 0 the crossblock function remains ef-
fective for as long as high-order harmonics are detected in any phase. When set to ∞,
the crossblock function is always active. .
If the differential current exceeds the magnitude set at address 1278 IDIFFmax
n.HM no n-th harmonic restraint takes place. This parameter can only be altered in
DIGSI at Display Additional Settings.

Note
The current values I/INO in the settings overview below always refer to the rated
current of the main protected object. The current values I/INS always refer to the rated
current of the relevant side of the main protected object.
