1 General Information
The AEG SD36 XRIO converter is designed for testing AEG SD36 distance protection relays by using the
OMICRON Test Universe 2.11 software. The converter provides all necessary data for testing the
distance protection functions (see section 2) of the SD36 relays. The converter is tested with the following
relay:
SD36 - 302-612

Note: This converter is tested with the relay described above. It will work with SD36 relays. It may work
with similar relays, too.
2 Quick Start Information
To work with the AEG SD36 XRIO converter:
1. Start a new OMICRON Control Center (OCC) document or open an existing OCC document.
2. Insert a new test object or open the existing test object.
3. On the File menu, click Import.
4. Browse to the SD36.xrio file.
5. Click Open.
6. Enter all necessary settings in the Customer Input section (see section 0).
7. Insert "+inf" (infinity) to disable settings/functions, if necessary.
8. Click OK.

3 Using the Converter
The AEG SD36 XRIO converter can be used as a stand-alone converter or in association with a relay
specific test template, for example with the OMICRON Distance template for the SD36 relay.
In any way the converter is used, follow the quick start instructions and create your test by using
LinkToXRIO or start using the relay specific test template (for more information, see the test template
documentation).
See section 0- Error! Reference source not found.for more information about using the XRIO con
with the OMICRON Distance test module.

4 Required Software Version
To use this converter, you must have a valid license for the OMICRON Test Universe 2.11 SR1 software.
5 Functional Range
The AEG SD36 XRIO converter implements the following functions:
21 Distance (circle)

Use the RIO interface of the Test Universe software to test the relay functional range. The test modules
are configured automatically without using LinkToXRIO.
The following functions are using the RIO interface:
21 Distance (circle)
6 Not Supported Functions
All standard SD36 protection functions are currently supported.
7 OMICRON Test Strategy
The OMICRON test strategy is described in the OMICRON Protection Test Template (PTT) Distance
documentation. For detailed information, see the PTT Distance documentation.
8 Converter Structure
The converter is divided into two sections: the SD36 section and the RIO section. Both sections consist of
several function blocks. The converter comes up in the standard view; the RIOplus section and the
Template Controller section can only be seen in the advanced view.
8.1 SD36 Section
The Customer Input section includes parameters which can be changed by the user. All relay
parameters are included in this section and can be set to the actual relay values.
8.1.1 Relay Parameter Section Block
In this block, setting parameters are included. The parameters are grouped and named according to the
relay parameter mode and the relay user manual. Each parameter in this block can be identified by a
Foreign ID.

8.1.1.1 Additional Information
This block has been added for relay specific parameters such as tolerances or angles of directional
elements which cannot be set by the user, because they are constant values. All values set in this block
can be found in the chapter "Technical Data" of the relay's documentation. Typically, these blocks do not
have to be changed (except the General Test Information and Circuit Breaker Information block), as they
are already set to the values given in the user manual of the relay.


Figure 4: Setting general information

The General Test Information block contains the parameters which are important for the test report, e.g.
information about the substation and the feeder. Furthermore it contains power system parameters which
are important for the test modules. These parameters are linked to the device part of the RIO section and
are available in the test report.

8.1.1.2 Template Controller (Advanced view)
The Template Controller block contains special helper parameter, which are needed for some tests,
especially for tests using LinkToXRIO. These are mainly calculated values which cannot be calculated by
using LinkToXRIO and therefore have to be stored in this section. Other values needed for customer
designed test can be stored in this block.
8.1.2 RIOPlus (Advanced view)
The RIOplus block contains the interface, which provides the link between the XRIO converter and all test
modules which have no access to RIO functions. All tests using basic test modules like Ramping or State
Sequencer have to be linked to the parameters in the RIOplus of the converter.

8.1.2.1 NamePlate
The NamePlate block contains all necessary information to identify the protection device to be tested. This
block contains the relay vendor, serial number, model, the relay location and a description.
8.1.2.2 PowerSystemParameters
The number of phases, phase rotation and the nominal frequency are stored in this block.
8.1.2.3 Distance Protection (Circle)
This block contains all necessary data to test the distance protection circle protection. All zones of the
distance circle protection function in the relay are modeled as subblocks of the ImpedanceZoneElements
and the DistanceProtection (Circle) block. Each zone subblock stores information about:
the grounding factors in the GroundingFactor subblock
the impedances BorderElements and GenericShape subblocks
the reach and Phi values and tolerances in the Reach and Phi subblocks
the operating and reset delay time values and tolerances in the OperateDelayTime and
ResetDelayTime subblocks

All necessary data for testing the overcurrent starting signals are stored in the StartingElements
subblock.
8.1.2.4 Circuit Breaker
The circuit breaker block contains all necessary data for testing protection functions together with the
circuit breaker. The modeled parameters are 52abPercentage, CloseTime, Forced3PoleOperatingTime,
SinglePoleTripping, TripTime, TripCommandDuration and ClosedBreakerMinCurrentThreshold.
8.2 RIO
The RIO section of the converter contains all specialized RIO functions which are needed to use the more
specialized test modules (like Advanced Distance or Overcurrent) provided by the OMICRON Test
Universe software.

Warning: Do not change any values in this section. The values have been set using the relay settings of
the Customer Input section.

Note: Do not activate the former test object view in the advanced mode of the XRIO test object. Changing
parameters in this view will disable formulas in the RIO section.
8.2.1 Distance
This RIO distance function provides the necessary values for testing the distance protection functions of
the SD36 relay with the Advanced Distance test module. The protection functions supported by this RIO
function include:
21 Distance circle
The following RIO function for testing these distance protection functions is available:
Distance
8.3 Handling the Infinity Value
The infinity value for the zone trip time t1t5 has to be set to +inf in the SD36 section of the converter. It
is used in the same way as the value 999 in the relay parameterization of Mode 14-18. Consequently, the
protection functions which are disabled by setting them to the value 999, behave the same way in the
converter.
