L90 Current Differential Relay: Traditional Restraint Method
Traditional method is STATIC
Compromise between Sensitivity and Security
Power Management
The Universal Relay
L90 Current Differential Relay: Dynamic Restraint
Dynamic restraint uses an estimate of a
measurement error to dynamically increase
the restraint
On-line estimation of an error is possible
owing to digital measuring techniques
In digital relaying to measure means to
calculate or to estimate a given signal
feature such as magnitude from the raw
samples of the signal waveform
Power Management
The Universal Relay
L90 Current Differential Relay: Digital Phasor Measurement
The L90 measures the current phasors
(magnitude and phase angle) as follows:
digital pre-filtering is applied to remove the
decaying dc component and a great deal of high
frequency distortions
the line charging current is estimated and used
to compensate the differential signal
full-cycle Fourier algorithm is used to estimate
the magnitude and phase angle of the
fundamental frequency (50 or 60Hz) signal

L90 Current Differential Relay: Goodness of Fit
window
time
A sum of squared differences between the
actual waveform and an ideal sinusoid over
last window is a measure of a goodness of
fit (a measurement error)
Power Management
The Universal Relay
L90 Current Differential Relay: Phasor Goodness of Fit
The goodness of fit is an accuracy index for
the digital measurement
The goodness of fit reflects inaccuracy due to:
transients
CT saturation
inrush currents and other signal distortions
The goodness of fit is used by the L90 to alter
the traditional restraint signal (dynamic
restraint)

L90 Current Differential Relay: Charge Current Compensation
The L90 calculates the instantaneous values
of the line charging current using the
instantaneous values of the terminal voltage
and shunt parameters of the line
The calculated charging current is
subtracted from the actually measured
terminal current
The compensation reduces the spurious
differential current and allows for more
sensitive settings
Power Management
The Universal Relay
L90 Current Differential Relay: Charge Current Compensation
The compensating algorithm:
is accurate over wide range of frequencies
works with shunt reactors installed on the line
works in steady state and during transients
works with both wye- and delta-connected VTs
(for delta VTs the accuracy of compensation is
limited)

create certain problems for fast distance
relays in conjunction with high Source
Impedance Ratios (SIRs):
the CVT induced transient voltage components
may assume large magnitudes (up to about 30-
40%) and last for a comparatively long time (up
to about 2 cycles)
the 60Hz voltage for faults at the relay reach
point may be as low as 3% for a SIR of 30
the signal is buried under the noise

The Universal Relay
D60 Line Distance Relay: Zone 1 and CVT transients
CVTs cause distance relays to overreach
Generally, transient overreach may be
caused by:
overestimation of the current (the magnitude of
the current as measured is larger than its actual
value, and consequently, the fault appears
closer than it is actually located),
underestimation of the voltage (the magnitude
of the voltage as measured is lower than its
actual value)
combination of the above

D60 Solution:
Optimal signal filtering
currents - max 3% error due to the dc component
voltages - max 0.6% error due to CVT transients
Adaptive double-reach approach
the filtering alone ensures maximum transient
overreach at the level of 1% (for SIRs up to 5) and
20% (for SIRs up to 30)
to reduce the transient overreach even further an
adaptive double-reach zone 1 has been implemented

New second harmonic restraint:
uses both the magnitude and phase relation

fundamental frequency (60Hz) component
Implementation issues:
the second harmonic rotates twice as fast as the
fundamental component (60Hz)
consequently the phase difference between the
second harmonic and the fundamental
component changes in time...

Basic Operation:
if the second harmonic drops magnitude-wise
below 20%, the phase angle of the complex
second harmonic ratio is close to either +90 or
-90 degrees during inrush conditions
the phase angle may not display the 90-degree
pattern if the second harmonic ratio is above
some 20%
if the second harmonic ratio is above 20% the
restraint is in effect, if it is below - the restraint
and its duration depend on the phase angle

B30 Bus Differential Relay: CT saturation problem
During an external fault
the fault current may be supplied by a number
of sources
the CTs on the faulted circuit may saturate
Saturation of the CTs creates a current
unbalance and violates the differential principle
The conventional restraining current may not be
sufficient to prevent maloperation
CT saturation detection and other operating
principles enhance the through-fault
stability

Operating power is calculated as a
function of:
magnitudes of the operating and polarizing
signals
the angle between the operating and polarizing
signals in conjunction with the characteristic
and limit angles
Restraining power is calculated as a
product of magnitudes of the operating and
restraining signals

The powers are averaged over certain
short period of time creating the operating
and restraining energies
The element operates when


Both forward and reverse operating
energies are calculated
The factor K is lower for the reverse
looking element to ensure faster operation

Energy g Restrainin Energy Operating > K
