BE1-87T, 3 Phase, Testing With 2 Single Phase Current Sources

This sheet predicts targets on BE1-87T when testing with two single phase test sets, with the relay set at user's final settings.
-- Enter data in yellow fields only. Range cell becomes red if out of range data is entered.
-- Input "1" and "2" are used for reference, but each can refer to any of the relay's 3 phase inputs. There up to three 3 phase inputs on a BE1-87T.
-- This sheet does not support back to back delta compensation (e.g., DAB-DAC and DAC-DAB compensation jumper configurations).

BE1-87T, 3 Phase, Differential Calculations, Arbitrary Isec.

This sheet predicts tripping of a BE1-87T for a set of two user-defined CT secondary current inputs
-- Enter data in yellow fields only. Blue cells are calculated by the spreadsheet.
-- Input 1 and 2 are used for reference; each can refer to any of the relay's 3-phase inputs. There up to three 3-phase inputs on a BE1-87T.
-- The spreadsheet reproduces the differential calculations of the BE1-87T to assist in determining if a trip should occur for a given test current.
-- Range cells will be green normally, but turn red to flag out-of-range settings.
-- Recall the relay expects current reversal across the xfmr, so balanced currents are shifted by 150, 180, or -150 degrees in most applications. For
instance, for balanced 3 phase current, current at Input 2 should be shifted by 180deg if jumpers are Y-Y, +150deg if jumpers are Y-D1, and -150deg
if jumpers are Y-D2.

BE1-CDS, Testing With 2 Single Phase Current Sources

This sheet predicts targets on the BE1-CDS2x0 when testing with two single phase test sets, with the relay set at user's final settings.
-- Enter data in yellow fields only. Range cells become red if bad data is entered. Blue cells are calculated by the spreadsheet.
-- While most directly applicable to the CDS220, this spreadsheet can be used to analyze the CDS240 if one mentally compensates for the winding numbers and does not use the advanced compensation schemes in the CDS240.
-- The spreadsheet expects one to understand compensation that the relay is using and enter net compensation, not the Xfmr or CT configuration. See IM chapter 3.

BE1-CDS220, Differential Calculations for Arbitrary Isec

This sheet predicts tripping of a BE1-CDS220 for a set of arbitrary user-defined CT secondary current inputs
-- Enter data in yellow fields only, entering only data listed in the "Range" cell. Range cells become red if bad data is entered.
-- The spreadsheet expects one to understand compensation that the relay is using and enter net compensation, not the Xfmr configuration. See IM chapter 3.
-- This sheet is for analyzing the effect of CT secondary currents being injected into the relay. This is not analyzing effect of primary current on relay. Note the CT Ratio is not
entered in this spreadsheet (except for the purpose of calculating the 87N Tap).
-- This sheet supports DAC, DAB, and "Ground Source" compensations of the CDS220.
-- Recall the relay expects current reversal across the xfmr, so balanced currents are shifted by 150, 180, or -150 degrees in most applications. For instance, for balanced 3
phase current, current at Input 2 should be shifted by 180deg if xfmr is Y-Y, +150deg for a DAB-Y xfmr, and -150deg for a DAC-Y xfmr.

BE1-CDS220, 3 Phase, Differential Calculations for Arbitrary Primary Currents

This sheet predicts tripping of a BE1-CDS220 for a set of arbitrary user-defined primary (i.e., line) current inputs
-- This sheet can also be used for the CDS240 in cases where the CDS240 is configured without ABC Swap, DDAB, or Polarity Reversal compensation.
-- Enter data in yellow fields only, entering only data listed in the "Range" cell. Range cells become red if bad data is entered.
-- The spreadsheet expects one to understand compensation that the relay is using and enter net compensation, not the Xfmr configuration. See IM chapter 3.
-- This sheet is for analyzing primary line currents. This sheet includes the effect of the CT connections.
-- Recall the relay expects current reversal across the xfmr, so balanced currents are shifted by 150, 180, or -150 degrees in most applications. For instance, for balanced 3
phase current, current at Input 2 should be shifted by 180deg if xfmr is Y-Y, +150deg for a DAB-Y xfmr, and -150deg for a DAC-Y xfmr.

BE1-CDS240, 3 Phase, Differential Calculations for Arbritrary Isec

This sheet predicts targets on a BE1-CDS240 relay for a set of arbitrary user-defined secondary currents
-- Enter data in yellow fields only. Blue cells are calculated by the spreadsheet.
-- The sheet reproduces the differential calculations of the BE1-CDS240 to assist in determining if a trip should occur for a given current defined by the user.
-- This sheet does not support the analysis of virtual currents at this time.
-- Recall the relay expects current reversal across the xfmr, so balanced currents are shifted by 150, 180, or -150 degrees in most applications. For instance, for balanced 3 phase current, current at Input 2 should be
shifted by 180deg if xfmr is Y-Y, +150deg for a DAB-Y xfmr, and -150deg for a DAC-Y xfmr.
