3. Technical Requirements
3.1 General Requirements
3.1.1 Description
The FPI shall be designed to continuously monitor the residual current and voltage fields from the overhead
line conductors. The FPI shall be triggered when fault current passes in the line conductors. In the
"alarmed" state it shall flash a high intensity light or red LED (dependent upon fault type). Products that
vary from the current system installed across Northern Powergrid shall provide communication and feature
compatibility.
3.1.2 Technical Particulars

System Operating Voltage (kV) 6.6 – 20kV
11kV Sensitive Earth Fault Level (A) 15A
20kV Sensitive Earth Fault Level (A) 30A
Live/Dead Line Trip Level (A) 7 – 20A
o o
Temperature Range (°C) -40 C to +70 C
Humidity Range 0 – 100%
IP Rating IP67
High intensity flash Rate (s) 10- 12 seconds
High intensity light brightness (Candela) 3000 Mill Candela
Voltage Reset Time (s) 60 seconds
Battery Type Lithium
Minimum battery life under normal operating conditions 10 years
Battery Shelf Life 15 years
Installation Distance from Conductors (metres) 3m
Unit Impact Resistance (Joules) 2 Joules
3.2 General Conditions
3.2.1 System Conditions

The equipment shall be suitable for use on distribution systems in which the neutral point is earthed either
directly with typical maximum earth fault passage levels of 2000A for 1.5 secs or by means of a neutral
earth resistor in which the earth fault passage levels have been limited to 1200A for 1.5 secs.
On certain parts of the distribution system, the above earthing methods have been replaced by or
supplemented with arc suppression coils.
The arc suppression coils have been installed to manage earth faults that are transient in nature. The
protection system has been designed in such a way that the coil remains in circuit for a specific period of
time limiting the flow of fault current. This action negates the requirement for an immediate circuit breaker
operation and thus allows the system to operate normally for transient faults. If the fault is sustained, the

protection system reverts back to the more traditional resistance earthed protection enviroment detailed
above.
Typically the arc suppresion coils have been designed to be in circuit for the following times before
reverting to resistance earthing :
11kV - up to 30secs.
20kV - up to 5 secs.
A review carried out on the Northern Powergrid distribution system has identified that under certain fault
conditions on primary substations fitted with arc suppresion coils, a fault on one circuit may lead to a
displaced neutral condition and as a result the production of unbalanced capacitive currents flowing down
non faulted circuits. Since this can result in false operation of the FPI's, those equipped with GPRS
communications shall be capable of having their earth sensitivity levels remotely updated during the next
heartbeat health check.
3.2.2 Environmental Conditions

Fault passage indicators shall be completely weatherproof and shall operate under conditions of shock and
vibration normally encountered in service. Indicators shall be enviromentally tested to IP67.
They shall be suitable for continued reliable operation in the temperature range -40C to +70C with
humidity levels of between 0 - 100%. The equipement enclosure shall be UV stable.
Variation in system frequency of 2Hz from the nominal frequency of 50Hz shall not cause a variation of
more than 5 per cent in the operation or resetting characteristics of a fault passage indicator.
3.2.3 Temperature
The unit shall demonstrate stability of operation for the equipment on both Earth Fault and Instantaneous
threshold trip levels against the stated temperature range.
3.2.4 Vibration Endurance Testing
The equipment shall be suitably designed to withstand all likely vibrations present on a wood pole
supporting structure.
3.2.5 UV Stability
The equipment shall be manufatcured from Ultra Violet stable materials including all manufactures markings as
detailed in clause 3.7.6

3.3 Modes of Operation
3.3.1 Desired Operating Modes
The unit shall be suitable for recognising permanent, intermittent and transient faults. Since many
overhead line faults are intermittent or transient type, both of which cause auto- reclose operations and no
obvious signs of damage, the FPI shall be designed to interpret the difference between these fault types
and respond accordingly.
A passage of fault current combined with a sustained loss of voltage shall result in a high intensity light
flashing for a designated period of time (as detailes in section 3.3.2 and 3.3.3) depending upon the fault
type. This period will provide sufficient time for field staff to inspect the indicators on the system and patrol
the faulty section of network. A passage of fault current without a sustained loss of voltage shall not result
in the flashing of the high intensity light.
3.3.2 Permanent Fault

If the fault is permanent (indicated by a sustained loss of voltage) then any upstream FPI's shall be designed
to alarm with the flashing of the high intensity light until the voltage is restored or for a period of 3 hours,
whichever occurs first. To save battery capacity, once the high intensity light stops flashing the red LED or
low energy identifier will commence flashing and continue for 24 hours. At the time of the fault, the GPRS
module shall signal back to the I-Host server to record the permanent fault event. An additional signal
shall also be generated when the units are reset and normal system voltage is restored.
3.3.3 Intermittent and Transient Faults

In the instances where there has been a successful auto-reclose and the system volts have been restored,
only the red LED will flash for a period of 24 hours. The high intensity light shall have been reset by the
system voltage after 60 seconds. At the time of the fault event, the GPRS module shall record the transient
fault event.
3.4 Earth Fault Sensitivity Levels
In general the FPI's shall be designed to be graded with the protection curves of adjacent ground or pole mounted
reclosers, thus operating effectivly at all fault levels down to as low as 7amps.
By default the FPI’s units shall be supplied preset with earth fault sensitivity levels programmed for use on the 11kV
system with earth fault sensitivity levels set to 15A. Where these units are required for use on the 20kV system the
default setting shall be amended to 30A.
The FPI's shall be designed such that earth fault sensitivity level can be amended from it's default value to a user
entered value both before it is installed and post installation via the GPRS remote communication system. All such
remote changes to the FPI settings shall be designed to be achieved during the heartbeat health check process by
amending the values in the I Host server software.
FPI's shall be designed to discriminate between magnetic inrush current and fault current.

3.5 Battery Life

FPI's shall utilise a single monitored battery suitably sized to provide the specified operation for a minimum of 10
years, assuming the following typical operating conditions:
 Average ambient temperature of 16C giving an average self discharge of -2% remaining capacity per annum.
 2 Weekly health check messages..
 Minimum shelflife of 2 years before installation on the distribution system.
FPI's shall incorporate a battery test facility allowing field staff to confirm the battery health status on site.
3.6 Communications
3.6.1 Communications Medium
The FPI’s shall incorporate a modem that is capable of communicating on the UK GPRS system.
The outstation FPI unit shall be designed to communicate via the GPRS network system into an I-Host Data
Management Software System to report the specified activity detailed in section 3.6.2..
Northern Powergrid utilises iHost to collect and manage GPRS data from FPIs and to link data into other IT
systems. The FPI shall be supported on iHost and use a compatable open protocol such as DNP3. A further
interface has been developed that allows this information to be integrated with the company’s GE Harris
Enmac NMS control system .
3.6.2 Functionality
 The system shall be designed to allow fault alarms to be sent via SMS Text messages, or Data Calls.
The modem unit shall be capable of generating multiple alarm events, e.g. permanent faults,
transient faults, system reset after permanent fault, signal strength, battery condition and next
heartbeat time/date.
 Once a fault has been detected, the GPRS modem within the FPI shall send an alarm to the I Host
software server. The software shall be designed to populate the customer’s chosen database.
 The FPI shall be capable of receiving updated earth fault settings via the communication system.
 The FPI unit shall be capable of generating an unsollicited heartbeat message. The scheduled
timing of the message being user definable between day/week/month. At the time for the
scheduled heartbeat check there shall be a maximum of 3 attempts with 2 minute intervals for a
successful transmission. If the heartbeat message is not received due to communication failures
etc. then the controlling server software will generate an alarm event 15 minutes after first
heartbeat due time.
 The FPI shall be able to time stamp events with reference to the Server's clock as time messages
are received by the Server and to give differential event stamping to within 1 sec.
3.6.3 Modem
The modem unit shall be designed to accept a Northern Powergrid free issued SIM card that operates with
the companies chosen network provider andcomply with the following standards: -
ETSI 300342 Part 2

ETSI 31489 Part 7

3.6.4 Software Requirements

See clause 3.6.1 for details of existing FPI management software being utilised by Northern Powergrid.
3.6.5 On Board Diagnostics
FPI’s shall incorporate on board diagnostics software that carries out a scheduled low battery health check.
The unit shall be programable to allow an alarm event to be generated when the remaining battery life
reaches a user definable limit. This alarm event shall be communicated back to the I-Host Softwae during
the next programmed heath call.
3.7 Testing
