2.2 Structure of protection function software
Figure 1 and the subsequent tables give an overview of the structure of the station
and bay protection functions in a bay unit. These functions are accessed through
so-called BP-input (Bi) and BP output blocks (Bo) which can accommodate up to
20 input and 120 output signals respectively.
Overview
It is to be noted that all signals that are to be mapped to the binary output contacts,
substation automation systems SAS (e.g. IEC 61850 bus) or LEDs first have to be
routed via the BP output block (Bo).
The following diagram gives an overview of the protection function und hardware
blocks of a RE500 bay unit including the possible signal assignments. Table 2 to
Table 4 provide the detailed description of the labeled items.

Overview
2.3 Signals
2.3.1 Bay / Station Protection à function overlapping signals
2.3.1.1 Signal designations
The BP/ SP function overlapping (general) signals correspond to the signal num-
bers nomenclature of the station protection system (for details see Technical Man-
ual REB500)
Example: 19205_Block BP (5 digit signal number)
2.3.1.2 Outputs generated by BP and used as SP inputs (default signals)
Table 5 BU_ BP outputs to SP inputs (default signals)

Signal Description
11120_BP External TRIP This is the tripping signal generated by bay protection of
REB500. It trips faults on a line with the aid of the REB500
tripping contact. Tripping thus takes account of the busbar
configuration at the time. The signal is activated by the bay
protection directly and does not therefore appear as binary
input signal.
11125_BP External TRIP BB zone This is a tripping signal generated by the bay protection of
REB500 which is used to trip the entire bus zone to which the
fbay is connected. The tripping command is applied to all the
bay units of the bus zone and sections of busbars intercon-
nected by an isolator (intertripping).
13210_BP Block BFP This signal is directly activated by the bay protection and
doesn’t therefore appear as a binary input signal. The opera-
tion of the breaker failure protection of the corresponding
feeder is blocked. When the blocking signal is cancelled and
providing a starting signal is present and current is flowing, the
timers start again at t = 0.
13610_BP Trip transfer Reserved for the special application “trip transfer”.
This signal is directly activated by the bay protection unit and
does not therefore appear as a binary input signal.
13761_BP Start BFP L1L2L3_5 This signal is functionally identical to signal "13760_Start BFP
L1L2L3_5", but it is directly activated by the bay protection and
13770..13780_BP Start BFP Lp Breaker failure protection with phase-selective starting (p = 1,
2 or 3). The breaker failure protection timer starts when this
signal is activated by BP functions and the BFP measures a
current in the corresponding phase. This signal is directly
activated by the bay protection and does not therefore appear
as a binary input signal.
13785_BP Start BFP L1L2L3 Breaker failure protection with three-phase starting. The
breaker failure protection timer starts when this signal is acti-
vated and the BFP measures a current in any phase.
This signal is directly activated by the bay protection and does
not therefore appear as a binary input signal.
Overview
Signal Description
13790_BP External start BFP Breaker failure protection with three-phase starting. The
breaker failure protection timer starts when this signal is acti-
vated regardless of the current measurement.
This signal is directly activated by the bay protection and does
not therefore appear as a binary input signal.
13797_BP Start BFP L0 Breaker failure protection with L0 - starting. The breaker failure
protection timer starts when this signal is activated by BP
functions and the BFP measures a current in the neutral sys-
tem. This signal is directly activated by the bay protection and
16760_BP Global Start DR Starts those disturbance recorders in the bay units that are
configured. The signal ‘Central start DR’ in the bay units must
be configured. This signal is directly activated by the BP unit
and does not therefore appear as a binary input signal.

Table 8 BU_ Output signals from BP

Signal Description
29405_BP blocked Signals that the outputs of the bay protection functions are
blocked (either the bay concerned or throughout the system).
29410_BP partial blocked Signals certain bay protection functions are blocked
(Signal must be set explicitly in the bay protection).
29600 ParaSet_1 active Signals that parameter set 1 is active (activated via the station
bus or an input signal).
Table 9 CU_ Output signals from BP

Signal Description
49405_BP blocked Signals that the outputs of the bay protection functions are
blocked (either individual bays or throughout the system).
49410_BP partial blocked Signals that certain bay protection output signals in specific
bays or throughout the entire system are blocked (Must be
configured together with the corresponding BU output signal
29410_BP partial blocked).
2.3.2 Bay protection à function-specific signals
2.3.2.1 Signal designations of binary inputs and outputs
The signal range of REB500 is expanded for the bay protection functions. The BP
function-specific signal can be identified by a 6 digit signal number

Configuring bay protection using HMI500
Section 3 Configuring bay protection using HMI500
3.1 Integration of bay protection
The REB500 bay models include no bay protection functionality. The integration
of the bay protection (variant V-L2) takes place under the setfile engineering dur-
ing the “Import a Bay Model” process.
The dialogue “Bay model import options” enables the selection of the BP variant
V-L2. After pressing the OK button, the respective bay is imported to the single-
line diagram and the selected BP variant (comprising the “V-L2 set” of BP func-
tions) is available for further configuration.
Figure 2 Selection the import option “Bay protection and “Variant””
For detailed information about the setfile engineering refer the REB500 Engineer-
ing Manual Section “single-line diagram”
The setfile engineering and the integration of the Bay protection re-
quires that the HMI500 is started under der “Configurator Mode”.
After that, the configuration details can also be adjusted under the
“Operator Mode”.
3.2 Configuring the bay protection using HMI500
To configure and set the bay protection function, open the HMI500 menu “Set-
tings” and select the menu item “Bay protection”.

3.3 Select Protection Function
This dialog is divided into the following parts:
The protection functions available for configuration are listed on the left (in the
form of buttons). Its content is determined by the already selected Bay protection
variant (see Section 3.2).
The protection functions used for configuration are listed on the right. The first is
always the binary output function “BP output” (see Figure 4).

Copy of Instance No. of the original function, where the instance is a copy of a func-
tion that already exists.
If the number of function instances exceeds the size of the display area, a scroll bar
automatically appears on the right. The maximum number of instances per bay unit
is limited to 128.
There are a number of tabs, which can be selected in this part of the dialog. The
first tab (ParSet 1..4) lists all the functions. It has to be selected to change functions
and determine the instances where they occur. The tabs ParSet 1 to ParSet 4 list
the functions configured for a particular parameter set and are merely for infor-
mation.
Creating instances of protection functions
An instance of a protection function is created by selecting it in the list on the left

of the dialog using the left mouse button and while keeping the button depressed
dragging it onto the area of the first tab (ParSet 1..4) (drag and drop). It is not pos-
sible to ‘drop’ the function while the symbol is being shown. The instance of
the protection function is created when the mouse cursor changes to an arrow and
the mouse button is released.
Assigning protection functions to parameter sets
Every instance of a protection function can be assigned to a particular parameter

set. The REB500 runs the protection functions in the currently selected parameter
set. The active parameter set is changed by setting the appropriate binary input on
the bay unit.
Figure 5 Parameter set assignment
To assign the instance of a protection function to a parameter set, simply check the
corresponding box using the left mouse button.
Using the context menu
To open the context menu for a particular protection function, first select the func-
tion by clicking the left mouse button on its symbol and then clicking the right
mouse button.
Figure 6 Content menu
Table 38 Content menu dialogues

Copy Creates a copy of the protection function according to the following rules:
• A copy cannot be in the same parameter set as the original.
• The input signals of a copy are the same as those of the original and
cannot be changed.
• Only defined parameters of a copy can be configured. All other param-

eters are taken from the original.

Delete The instance of the specific protection function is deleted together with all the
settings that the user has made up to that point.
If the function being deleted has connections to other protection functions, an
error message appears instructing you to first delete the connections.
Thus an instance can only be deleted after all its interconnections have been
deleted.
Properties This opens a dialog with all the function’s settings. Double clicking on the
function’s symbol opens the same dialog.
Status indicator
On the left of each instance number and function symbol there is a status indicator
which signals the validity of the parameters entered.
Figure 7 Status indication of BP Function
Green indicates that the configuration is correct and valid while red indicates that
the setting procedure has not been completed. This generally means in the case of a
single-phase function that an analog channel has not yet been assigned to it.
The “Bay protection” dialog cannot be closed by clicking on “OK” until all the sta-
tus indicators are green.
Statistical evaluation
Double clicking with the right mouse button with the cursor in the dialog below the
area of the tabs opens a window with statistics and status information on the bay
protection functions.

3.4 Binary signal configuration
3.4.1.1 Configuring binary input signals
Each Bay protection function has a defined number of binary inputs. These are de-
scribed for each of the protection functions in Section 2.3.2.3. .
In the dialogs for setting protection functions, a binary input is described in plain
text and has a button for configuration.
Figure 10 Setting binary input signal – e.g. OCDT Blocking input
The following signals can be assigned to the binary inputs of each

BP function:
BP internal
• outputs from an another BP function (see 3.4.1.2)

• General inputs to BP (see 2.3.1.3)
• Signal status “Always FALSE” or “Always TRUE”
BP external (see 3.4.1.4)
• Binary input signals (from optocoupler inputs)

• Predefined outputs of a station protection function
3.4.1.3 Assignment of ‘BP internal’ input signals
Click the left mouse button on the status button of the desired signal to open the di-
alog “Select Binary Input” for configuring the status of the particular binary input
signal.
The dialog has two tabs, the first of which (“TRUE / FALSE”) provides facility for
setting the input status to “Always True”, OR “Always False”. This is a permanent
assignment, without the involvement of an output signal of another function.
Figure 11 Configuring binary inputs (TRUE / FALSE)
The second tab “Output from Function” enables the output of an existing instance
of a protection function to be connected to the particular signal input.
The “Output from Function” tab lists all the protection function instances set for
the particular bay unit together with the unique number of the instance. Upon se-
lecting a protection function in the list on the left by clicking the left mouse button
on it, its binary output signals appear on the right of the dialog.

3.4.1.4 Assignment ‘BP external’ input signals
The system automatically creates an instance “BP Binary Input”. It thus always
heads the list of instances.
If you select “BP Binary Input”, the right-hand half of the dialog presents two tabs
“Default” and “General purpose”.
Default
The “Default” tab lists station protection default outputs (see Figure 13). Any bina-
ry input of a BP function can be linked to these to enable the exchange of signals
between station protection and the bay protection sections (e.g. signal
21105_External TRIP).
Figure 13 Configuring binary inputs (“Default” à Output from SP function)
Location of input signals from ‘SP function’within the BP func-

tion diagram see Figure 1, Label No. 15.
General Purpose
The “General Purpose” tab provides facility for defining up to 20 user signals. To
this end, select a signal number with the left mouse button. A text field appears in
which the user can write a signal name (see Figure 14).
The signal name entered must conform to REB500 signal conventions (see Section
2.3.2.1). The Section 2.3.2.3 provides a list of all signals available for “General
Purpose” inputs.
Example:
Signal name under the BP function Designation of binary input signals to be entered under
“General Purpose”

gram see Figure 1, Label No. 11.
Once defined, signals can be assigned to an optocoupler input by selecting the

menu “Configuration/ Binary module/ Inputs”.
Location of ‘Binary module’ input signals within the BP function

diagram see Figure 1, Label No. 10.
3.4.2 Configuring binary output signals
Each REB500 bay protection function has a defined number of binary output sig-
nals. These are described for each of the protection functions in Section 2.3.2.4. In
the dialogs for setting protection functions, a binary output signal is described in
plain text and has a field, which lists the input signals assigned to the respective
output.
Figure 15 BP output signal assignment
The list shows the input signals assigned to the respective output. For each signal
in the list, the instance number and an abbreviation of the function are given.
Table 42 BP output signal assignment

Example Description
09 Instance of BP function
OR Symbol representing the BP function of the instance
Binary Inp 2 Binary input 2 of OR function
Output signals are assigned when configuring either the binary out-
put function (see Section 3.4.2.1) or bay protection input signal
function (see Section 3.4.1.1).
3.4.2.1 Exception: Binary output function
The binary output function has to be included in all sets of parameters and that is
why the function is automatically selected for all of them and the setting cannot be
changed by the user.
Figure 16 Parameter set assignment of BP outputs (fixed allocation)
The configuration of the binary output function is basically the same as for the oth-
er protection functions. Open the configuration dialog by double clicking with the
left mouse button on the symbol or via the context menu.
The signals of the binary output function are divided into two groups for “De-
fault” and “General purpose” outputs.
Default
The default groups are signals which are exchanged between bay
and station protection functions (e.g. distance protection trip for
starting the breaker failure protection). The station protection input
signals (see Table 5) are all predefined and can’t be changed.
Choice of the bay protection output signals (“General Purpose”, see
Figure 18), on the other hand, is unrestricted.
Figure 17 BP output (Default)
The signals assigned under the default group do not reduce the
number of BP output channels (total of 120).
Location of ‘BP default’ output signals within the BP function di-

agram see Figure 1, Label No. 14.
General Purpose
The “General Purpose” tab provides facility for defining up to 120 output signals.
Figure 18 BP output (General purpose)
Location of “BP general purpose” output signals within the BP

function diagram see Figure 1, Label No. 12.
Edit (used for both “Default” and “General purpose” signals
Click on the respective “Edit” button to assign a “Default” or “General purpose”

signal. This opens the dialog “Select binary input”. The remaining procedure is the
same as described for binary input signals (see Section 3.4.1.4).
Only bay protection output signals that are configured to a BP

Output Channel can be assigned to an output relay of the bay unit
by selecting the menu “Configuration/ Binary module/ Outputs”.
Section 2.3.2.4 provides a list of available bay protection output
signals.
Location of Binary module’ output signals within the BP function

diagram see Figure 1, Label No. 13.
3.4.3 Recording a binary signal as an event
Only bay protection binary signals can be configured to be recorded as events that
are also configured via menu “Configuration/ Binary module” (output signals do
not necessarily have to be assigned to output relays).
3.4.4 Disturbance recording of a binary signal
Binary output signals generated by bay protection functions can be configured for
disturbance recording, providing they are configured in the “General purpose” dia-
log for the binary output function (see Figure 18).
Binary input signals of the bay protection functions can be configured for disturb-
ance recording, providing they are configured in the “General purpose” dialog for
the binary input function (see Figure 14) and also as a binary input via the HMI500
menu “Configuration/Binary module/Inputs” menu.
3.5 Protection function settings
The appropriate dialog for setting a protection function is opened by double click-
ing the left mouse button on the respective symbol or via the context menu.
Figure 19 Protection function settings
The settings in the dialog for each protection function are described in detail in
Section 5.

Section 4 System functions
4.1 BP Function Monitoring
The BP function monitoring (measurement of primary system values) is made un-

der the “Operator mode”. The bay units licensed to include bay protection are listed
in the overview dialog. To view the measurements, select a bay unit and click on
the “Continue” button or more directly, simply double click on the desired bay unit
using the left mouse button. The “Select function” dialog with a list of bay protec-
tion functions and measurements available in the particular bay unit appears. Select
the desired function either by double clicking on it or selecting and clicking on the
'Open function' button.
The protection function measurement is automatically refreshed. Close the dialog
either by clicking on 'OK' or 'Cancel'.

4.3 CT grounding
The location at which the CT neutrals are grounded (line or busbar side) is of con-
sequence to directional protection functions (Distance protection DIST, Directional
overcurrent definite time protection DIROCDT and Directional overcurrent inverse
time protection DIROCINV).
The following table lists the functions with provision for configuring the location
of the CT neutral ground:
Table 43 CT grounding setting

Protection function Provision for configuring the CT ground?
Distance protection yes
Directional overcurrent definite time protection no
Directional overcurrent inverse time protection no
The default setting for the last two functions is busbar side, but if a Distance pro-
tection function has been configured, its setting (line or busbar side) applies for the
directional overcurrent functions as well.

5.2.1 Voltage transformers for bay protection
The HMI500 “Settings/Voltage transformers/Overview” tab opens a dialog with

the list of all voltage transformers in the single-line diagram with their labels, bay
labels primary and secondary rated voltages.
In the “Details” view the description can be edited in the input field “Markings”.
The ratio is determined by the primary and secondary ratings entered in the “Trans-
former ratio” input field. The VT input is a single winding, which is suitable for all
the main VT secondary ratings, the effective voltage being set via HMI500 to ei-
ther 100 V or 200 V. Other voltages are accommodated by appropriately setting the
scaling factor.
This menu item appears only if voltage transformers have been fitted.

6.3 Commissioning

the Commissioning Manual of REB500.
6.3.1 Regulations
DANGER: Note that when commissioning REB500 the analogue

input signals act on the bay protection functions as well as the sta-
tion functions. Especially when the commissioning subsequently
(e.g. following additions to the system), care must be taken to pre-
vent part of the system which are already in operation from mal-
operating. Corresponding precautions must be taken (interrupting
tripping circuits, blocking system functions, disabling auxiliary
tripping relays).
6.3.2 Additional checks for bay protection REB500
The following checks described below are necessary to commission the bay protec-
tion function (in addition to the function test of REB500 station protection).
6.3.2.1 Commissioning a new station without any HV
When commissioning a new station or a station, which is not energized, the busbar
and breaker failure protection functions and the bay protection functions (line pro-
tection) can be commissioned separately, although certain tests do overlap and
should be coordinated to save time.
Note also that, for example, injecting current in the analog input of one feeder can
trip other feeders via the intertripping logic. This can, however, be prevented by
taking the appropriate precautions (interrupting tripping circuits, blocking station
protection functions or blocking tripping relays).
6.3.2.2 Additions to an existing station
When adding bay protection to an existing station more checks have to be carried
out than is the case of a REB500 with only station protection. To avoid any risk of
the station protection functions (BBP, BFP and EFP) being affected and possibly
mal operating when performing the additional checks, the following procedure is
recommended. The basic philosophy is to check the bay unit on its own first (with-
out the rest of the REB500 system). This is done in the stand-alone bay unit mode
and requires that the setfile be loaded in the bay unit to be extended beforehand as
follows:
Step 1
Interrupt the optical fiber link between the central unit and the by unit to be com-
missioned.
Step 2
Switch on the auxiliary supply to the new bay unit.
Step 3
Appropriately update the setfile of the REB500 in question to include the new bay
unit (activate the feeder) and download it to the new bay unit. The setfile must
include all the settings needed for the new bay unit.
Step 4 (Check of the analogue inputs)
Refer to REB500 Commissioning Manual Sections “Checking the analog inputs

(CTs)” and “Checking the analog inputs (VTs)”.
Measuring the start values of BP functions (e.g. distance protection function) is un-
necessary, because they are fully processed by the software and any error would be
detected by the self-supervision function. However, it is normal to measure the re-
actances of the various distance measuring zones. This may be omitted if a suitable
test set is not available.
Step 5 (Check the binary inputs and outputs)
Refer to REB500 Commissioning Manual Sections “Checking the binary input sig-
nals”, “Checking the aux. contacts of isolators and circuit breakers” and “Checking
the binary output signals”.
Step 6
Block the REB500 system (e.g. using “Block output relays” on the central unit).
Step 7
Download the updated setfile to the central unit.
This requires that the PC running HMI500 be connected either directly to the cen-
tral unit or a bay unit, which is already operational.
WARNING: On no account connect the optical fiber link to the

new bay unit before the setfile has been successfully downloaded to
the central unit.
Step 8
• Switch off the bay unit

• Connect the optical fiber cable going to the central unit
• Switch on the bay unit
Step 9
Perform the busbar protection through-fault stability check (Refer to REB500

Commissioning Manual Sections “Checking protection stability”)
Step 10
Check the direction of the distance protection function with load current. This is
achieved by measuring real and apparent power in L1 phase.
The real and apparent power measurements of all the directional functions can be
viewed by selecting the HMI500 menu “View/BP function monitoring”. The di-
rection “Forwards” or “Backwards” is also displayed for both real and apparent
power as soon as a valid measurement has been made.
The display is influenced by the setting ‘CT Neutral’ “Line side/Busbar side” for
the distance protection function. The default setting of ‘CT Neutral’ for the dis-
tance protection function is CTs grounded on the busbar side.
Note the following with respect to busbar protection:
The side on which the CTs are grounded is of no consequence for the busbar pro-
tection and does not therefore have a setting. What is important, however, is that
the grounding of all the CTs on the busbars is the same (and have the same winding
sense), otherwise the differential current will not be correct.
Where this is not the case, the connections to the corresponding CT inputs on the
respective bay units must be reversed (current phase-angle rotated by 180°).
In the feeders in which the current direction has been rotated in the bay unit by
180°, the setting parameter 'CT Neutral' of the distance function must also be re-
spectively corrected to correspond to actual earthing direction of the CT.
Step 11
Restore REB500 to normal operation.
6.4 Communication
The Communication Protocol Manuals describe the communication protocols sup-

ported by the IED with a focus on vendor-specific implementations.
The communication signal engineering extends the basic signal engineering of BP

described in the present Application Manual. The cross reference list (see Table
59) reflects the relationship between the Application Manual for BP and the rele-
vant sections of the Communication Protocol Manuals.
