** rated for ac or dc operation.


P34x/EN TD/F33 Technical Data

Page 8/52 MiCOM P342, P343

1.4 Frequency
The nominal frequency (Fn) is dual rated at 50 – 60Hz, the operate range is
5Hz – 70Hz.

1.5 ‘Universal’ logic inputs (P340 range)


The P340 series relays are fitted with universal opto isolated logic inputs that can be
programmed for the nominal battery voltage of the circuit of which they are a part.
They nominally provide a Logic 1 or On value for Voltages ≥80% of the set lower
nominal voltage and a Logic 0 or Off value for the voltages ≤60% of the set higher
nominal voltage. This lower value eliminates fleeting pickups that may occur during
a battery earth fault, when stray capacitance may present up to 50% of battery
voltage across an input. Each input also has a pre-set filter of ½ cycle which renders
the input immune to induced noise on the wiring.
In the Opto Config menu the nominal battery voltage can be selected for all opto
inputs by selecting one of the five standard ratings in the Global Nominal V settings.
If Custom is selected then each opto input can individually be set to a nominal
voltage value.

All the logic inputs are independent and isolated. Relay type P342 has a base
number of opto inputs of 8 in the 40TE case and 16 in the 60TE case. Relay type
P343 has a base number of opto inputs of 16 in the 60TE case and 24 in the 80TE
case. One optional opto input board or one output relay relay board can be added
to each relay model to increase the number of opto inputs by 8 or relay contacts by
8.

1.6 Output relay contacts


There are 2 versions of the output relay board one with seven relays, three normally
open contacts and four changeover contacts and one with eight relays, six normally
open contacts and two changeover contacts.
Technical Data P34x/EN TD/F33

MiCOM P342, P343 Page 9/52

For relay models with suffix A hardware, only the 7 output relay boards were
available. For equivalent relay models in suffix B hardware or greater the base
numbers of output contacts, using the 7 output relay boards, is being maintained for
compatibility. The 8 output relay board is only used for new relay models or existing
relay models available in new case sizes or to provide additional output contacts to
existing models for suffix issue B or greater hardware. Note, the model number suffix
letter refers to the hardware version.
Relay type P342 has a base number of relay contacts of 7 in the 40TE case and 16 in
the 60TE case. Relay type P343 has a base number of relay output contacts of 14 in
the 60TE case and 24 in the 80TE case. One optional output relay board or one
opto input board can be added to each relay model to increase the number of relay
contacts by 8 or opto inputs by 8.

5.1 Performance criteria


The following three classes of performance criteria are used within sections 5.2 to
5.13 (where applicable) to specify the performance of the MiCOM relay when
subjected to the electrical interference. The performance criteria are based on the
performance criteria specified in EN 50082-2:1995.
Technical Data P34x/EN TD/F33

MiCOM P342, P343 Page 13/52

5.1.1 Class A
During the testing the relay will not maloperate, upon completion of the testing the
relay will function as specified. A maloperation will include a transient operation of
the output contacts, operation of the watchdog contacts, reset of any of the relays
microprocessors or an alarm indication.
The relay communications and IRIG-B signal must continue uncorrupted via the
communications ports and IRIG-B port respectively during the test, however relay
communications and the IRIG-B signal may be momentarily interrupted during the
tests, provided that they recover with no external intervention.
5.1.2 Class B
During the testing the relay will not maloperate, upon completion of the testing the
relay will function as specified. A maloperation will include a transient operation of
the output contacts, operation of the watchdog contacts, reset of any of the relays
microprocessors or an alarm indication. A transitory operation of the output LEDs is
acceptable provided no permanent false indications are recorded.
The relay communications and IRIG-B signal must continue uncorrupted via the
communications ports and IRIG-B port respectively during the test, however relay
communications and the IRIG-B signal may be momentarily interrupted during the
tests, provided that they recover with no external intervention.
5.1.3 Class C
The relay will power down and power up again in a controlled manner within 5
seconds. The output relays are permitted to change state during the test as long as
they reset once the relay powers up.

communication recovers with no external intervention after the testing.

10.4.3 IDG curve


The IDG curve is commonly used for time delayed earth fault protection in the
Swedish market. This curve is available in stage 1 of the Earth Fault protection.
The IDG curve is represented by the following equation:

æ Ι ö
t = 5.8 - 1.35 loge ç ÷ in seconds
è ΙN > Setting ø
where
Ι = measured current
ΙN>Setting = an adjustable setting which defines the start point of the
characteristic
Although the start point of the characteristic is defined by the “ΙN>” setting, the
actual relay current threshold is a different setting called “IDG Ιs”. The “IDG Ιs”
setting is set as a multiple of “ΙN>”.
An additional setting “IDG Time” is also used to set the minimum operating time at
high levels of fault current.
Figure 3 illustrates how the IDG characteristic is implemented.

10.12.2 Over voltage protection time delay characteristics


Over voltage measuring elements are followed by an independently selectable time
delay.
The first elements have time delay characteristics selectable as either Inverse Time or
Definite Time. The remaining element shall have an associated Definite Time delay
setting.
Each measuring element time delay is capable of being blocked by the operation of a
user defined logic (optical isolated) input.
The inverse characteristics are given by the following formula:
K
t =
(M - 1)

10.22.2 Hysteresis
Hysteresis is applied to the lenticular characteristic and to the blinder as soon as they
pick up individually. Hysteresis is not required for the reactance line as Zone 1 or
Zone 2 is determined at a single point when the locus traverses the blinder.
For the lens, the hysteresis consists of an angle of 5° subtracted from the α setting to
increase the lens size and an increment of 5% applied to ZA and ZB to extend the
reach.
Hysteresis for the blinder is dependant on the mode of operation. For generating
mode, the blinder is adjusted to the right, for motoring mode, the blinder is adjusted
to the left, with a distance which is equivalent to an angle separation of 175°. This is
shown in Figure 4. This distance is equivalent to (ZA + ZB) / 2*tan87.5°.
For both characteristics the hysteresis is reset when the impedance locus leaves the
lens.

18. FREQUENCY RESPONSE


With the exception of the RMS measurements all other measurements and protection
functions are based on the Fourier derived fundamental component. The
fundamental component is extracted by using a 24 sample Discrete Fourier
Transform (DFT). This gives good harmonic rejection for frequencies up to the 23rd
harmonic. The 23rd is the first predominant harmonic that is not attenuated by the
Fourier filter and this is known as an ‘Alias’. However, the Alias is attenuated by
approximately 85% by an additional, analogue, ‘anti-aliasing’ filter (low pass filter).
The combined affect of the anti-aliasing and Fourier filters is shown below:

Figure 5: Frequency response


For power frequencies that are not equal to the selected rated frequency the
harmonics would not be attenuated to zero amplitude. For small deviations of ±1Hz,
this is not a problem but to allow for larger deviations, an improvement is obtained
by the addition of frequency tracking.
With frequency tracking the sampling rate of the analogue / digital conversion is
automatically adjusted to match the applied signal. In the absence of a suitable
signal to amplitude track, the sample rate defaults to the selected rated frequency
(Fn). In the presence of a signal within the tracking range (5 to 70Hz), the relay will
lock on to the signal and the measured frequency will coincide with the power
frequency as labelled in the diagram above. The resulting outputs for harmonics up
to the 23rd will be zero.

Note: To avoid exceeding second rear communications port flash


clearances the length of the cable, between the port and
associated communications equipment should be limited to 300
metres. In situations where 300 metres may be insufficient it
must be ensured that the communications cable is not laid in
close proximity to high current carrying conductors. The
communications cable should be screened with screen earthed
at one end only.
