2 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Zones of protection Zone of protection of a relay is the place or the distance that the relay can protect easily.fig.1 shows an example of protection zones for three circuit breakers.it is to be noted that the protection zones are overlapped. CB1 Zone of protection of CB1 CB2 CB3 Zone of protection of CB3 Zone of protection of CB2 In power systems, all power system elements must be encompassed by at least one zone The more important elements must be included in at least two zones Zones must overlap to prevent any element from being unprotected. The overlap must be finite but small to minimize the likelihood of a fault inside this region. A zone boundary is usually defined by a CT and a CB. The CT provides the ability to detect a fault inside the zone The CBs provide the ability to isolate the fault. 84

3 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq CLOSED AND OPEN PROTECTION ZONES CLOSED ZONE PROTECTION OPEN ZONE PROTECTION ZONE OF PROTECTION ZONE OF PROTECTION Relay 87 Distance Primary Zones of protection Relay 50/51 Overcurrent Zone1 Zone2 Zone3 Zone 4 Zone 5 05

4 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Primary protection in power systems 05

5 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Backup protection It is essential that provision be made to clear the fault by some alternative protection system in case of the primary protection fails to operate. These are referred to as backup protection systems Ideally primary and backup are independent (relay,breaker,ct,pt) Slower than primary Sometimes backup protection opens more circuit breakers than absolutely necessary to clear the fault Provide primary protection when usual primary equipment out of service 05

6 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Two Types of Backup Protection Back up relaying may be installed locally, in the same substation, or remote in other substations or places: Local backup : Clears fault in the same station where the failure has occurred Remote backup : Clears fault on station away from where the failure has occurred 05

7 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Primary and Back up protection at the same location ( Local Backup) Backup REACH OF PROTECTION 21P REACH OF PROTECTION 21B Primary Fault Transmission line 21P 21B 08

8 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Local backup protection at differente locations REACH OF PROTECTION 50/51 OF THE TRANSFORMER REACH OF PROTECTION 50/51 OF BUS TIE BREAKER REACH OF PROTECTION /51 50/51 B/B2 B/B1 00

9 Power System protection Dr. Mohamad Tawfeeq Remote back up protection REACH OF PROTECTION 21B REACH OF PROTECTION 21A SUBSTATION B SUBSTATION A Selectivity and zones of protection Selectivity is defined in terms of regions of a power system (zones of protection) for which a given relay is responsible. The relay will be considered secure if it responds only to faults within its zone of protection 05

10 Example : Consider the following simple power system: A D G1 G2 B E G H J K C F I L M Q R N P LOAD Discuss the local and remote backup protection for two fault locations as follows: 05

11 Case 1: Local Backup A D G1 G2 B E G H J K C F I F1 L M Q R N P LOAD Breaker closed Breaker opened For fault at F1: Suppose that breaker J operate and breaker H failed to operate. Therefore: 04

12 G and I must operate as local backup protection Case 2: Local Backup A D G1 G2 B E G H J K C F I L M Q R N P F2 LOAD Breaker closed Breaker opened For fault at F2: Suppose that breakers P and Q operate and breaker M failed to operate. Therefore: L must operate as local backup protection and I should tripped by communication signal (Transfer Trip) 04

13 Case 3: Remote Backup A D G1 G2 B E G H J K C F I F1 L M Q R N P LOAD Breaker closed Breaker opened For fault at F1: Suppose that breaker J operate and breaker H failed to operate. Therefore: E, F, L and M must operate as Remot backup protection 55

14 Case 4: Remote Backup A D G1 G2 B E G H J K C F I L M Q R N P F2 LOAD Breaker closed Breaker opened For fault at F1: Suppose that breakers P & Q operate and breaker M failed to operate. Therefore: I, B, and C must operate as Remot backup protection 55
