3.1 Busbar Differential Protection(87BB)
The busbar differential protection is composed of check zone differential element, discriminative
zone differential element, CT saturation detection element, voltage control element and
identification element of busbar isolator position.
The differential circuit comprises of check zone differential circuit and discriminative zone
differential circuits of each busbar zone. The check zone differential current is composed of all
feeder currents except BC/BS current, which is used to distinguish between internal fault and
external fault. The discriminative zone differential current is composed of all feeders connected to
the busbar zone including BC/BS current, which is used to select the faulty busbar.
Take the busbar I in the double busbar arrangement as an example, the logic scheme of busbar
differential protection is shown as the following figure 3.1. One-and-a-half breaker system busbar
differential protection is shown as the following figure 3.2.

For check zone differential element, the restraint coefficient k=0.3 fixedly and k=0.5 for
discriminative zone differential element.
Deviation of Fault Component Differential Element
In order to increase tolerance on high fault resistance and reduce the effect to protection feature
by system power angle before fault occurring, deviation of fault component differential element is
used for busbar differential protection. Fast busbar differential protection is formed by integrating
deviation of fault component differential element with steady-state percentage differential element
with fixed restraint coefficient k=0.25. For deviation of fault component differential element, the
restraint coefficient k’=0.65 fixedly.

3 Operation Theory
differential current is caused by CT saturation during external fault. If it is, busbar differential
protection will be blocked, otherwise it will be enabled. When busbar internal fault occurs,
deviation of fault component differential element and deviation of fault component restraint current
element will operate almost simultaneously. However, when busbar external fault occurs, as CT
does not saturate at the beginning of the fault, deviation of fault component differential element will
operate later than deviation of fault component restraint current element. Besides a realtime wave
identification is used to detect CT saturation. The relay can operate to trip the faulty busbar quickly
even if in the extreme case of evolving internal fault on the same phase after CT saturation during
external fault.

Figure 3.7 Logic Scheme of Bus Coupler (Bus Sectionalizer) Failure Protection
If a fault occurs between BC/BS breaker and BC/BS CT, the fault can not be eliminate after BC/BS
breaker is open. In order to clear the fault quickly, a dedicated dead zone protection is provided.
When the differential protection issures tripping signal to BC/BS breaker but there is still current
flowing through BC/BS and The BC/BS CT current could no longer be calculate to discriminative
zone differential current when it is determined as dead zone fault after certain delay on condition
that no whole busbar differential component and one bus differential component at the breaker
side returns. The differential protection tripping order and the dead zone fault is removed. The
logic scheme of dead zone fault quitted from BC/BS CT is shown in the following Figure 3.8.
BC/BS Breaker Open-Sta.BI=1
Figure 3.8 Logic Scheme of Dead Zone Fault and BC/BS CT Quitted from Differential Current
Under normal operation, the separated LP of BC/BS is put into operation with BC/BS breaker
position is open,the device determines that BC/BS is in separated state with BC/BS CT ignore
after dead zone delay and current excluded in the one bus circuit. When the separated LP of
BC/BS quits or BC/BS equals to "0", the device determines that BC/BS is in separated state with
current included in the one bus circuit. When the busbar is in fault, the busbar differential
protection acts without return, and the device determines that BC/BS is in separated state when
the BC/BS breaker-open-state is off with BC/BS CT cut off after dead zone delay and current
excluded in the one bus circuit.
For double busbar with one BC and two BS arrangement, the busbar sectionalizer is separated in
the condition of " separated LP " is on and the BC breaker-open-state BI is on.
Under separated operation, the device releases the separated state of the BC/BS when the
current in the BC/BS (bigger than 0.04In) exceeding 2 seconds, and CT connection is restored
with current included into the one bus differential circuit.

3 Operation Theory
2) The effective time of charge logic is the 1s after close-breaker BI changes from "0" to "1",
which turns into normal busbar protection logic after 1s.
3) If the busbar protection can not recover in the effective time of charge logic when it satisfies
operation condition of transient trip bus coupler (bus sectionalizer) breaker, the trip operation
of busbar will be delayed for 300ms to prevent removal of busbar by mistake.
The charge locking busbar differential logic is shown in the following figure 3.9.

(1) Three lines of independent MAC Ethernet with 100M capacity, and the optional photoelectric
(corresponding RP1001 and RP1002). Support net 103 protocol and IEC6185 protocol. The
basic configuration for Ethernet is electrical port with optical port available, which shall be
noted in ordering the goods.
(2) One line of exclusive debugging port for factory
(3) One line of RS-232 serial port for printing
(4) One line of RS-485 differential time synchronization input interface: this interface is available
for receiving of 1PPS, 1PPM and IRIG-B time synchronization signal input.
The GPS time synchronization of protection device can be achieved through the following
three ways:
(1) Source free 1PPS and 1PPM time synchronization received through "time synchronization" BI
of 48V BI module.
(2) The 1PPS, 1PPM time synchronization and IRIG-B code signal for RS-485 differential signal
received through IRIG-B+ and IRIG-B- terminals of CPU panel.
(3) The time synchronization message from the monitoring system is received through net
interface of monitoring system.
The front 4 lines in the 48V BI module are "print", "time synchronization", "signal reset" and
"maintenance status" BI, and the 23rd-the last line is "weak voltage BI power monitoring".
"Print" terminal is used for manual pickup of the latest operation report, and the print button is
generally fixed in the protection screen. The device selects automatic print or manual print through
"automatic print" of adjusting logic setting. When it is adjusted to be automatic print, the protection
device outputs to the printer once there is operation report, and when it is adjusted to be manual
print, press the print button on the screen.
The "time synchronization" is used for receiving PPS contact or optical coupler signal from GPS or
other time synchronization devices, and the input signal must be source free shown as the
following drawing. It is recommended to adopt RS-485 bus differential signal time synchronization
pattern (refer to CPU module instruction). Only one time synchronization pattern is available
during practical application, the input shall not be connected when bus time synchronization is
adopted.

This setting is the failure low voltage block setting with enough sensitivity when any line terminal of
the connected busbar is in symmetric fault. It shall be adjusted with minimum voltage under
normal operation with adjusting scope ranging from 30V to 50V.
It shall be applied in grounding system and adjusted based on the phase voltage. When it is used
in isolated neutral system, it shall be adjusted in accordance with the line voltage.
7. [CV.3U0>]
This setting is the CV.3U0> with enough sensitivity when any line terminal of the connected busbar
is in asymmetrical fault. It shall be adjusted with abnormal zero sequence voltage under normal
operation with adjusting scope ranging from 3V to 20V.
When it is used in isolated neutral system, it shall be adjusted in accordance with the default.
8. [CV.U2>]
This setting is the CV.U2> with enough sensitivity when any line terminal of the connected busbar
is in asymmetrical fault. It shall be adjusted with abnormal negative sequence voltage under
normal operation with adjusting scope ranging from 3V to 20V.
9. [Three Ph.Brk.Fail.Prot.I>]
This setting is the phase current setting of transformer bay failure to ensure enough sensitivity at
the low voltage side of the transformer, as well as avoidance of the load current under normal
operation with sensitivity not smaller than 1.3.
10. [Brk.Fail.Prot.3I0>]
This setting is the common setting of busbar failure protection during the pickup of line and

10.1 Overview
The device must be shipped, stored and installed with the greatest care.
Choose the place of installation such that the communication interface and the controls on the
front of the device are easily accessible.
Air must circulate freely around the equipment. Observe all the requirements regarding place of
installation and ambient conditions given in this instruction manual.
Take care that the external wiring is properly brought into the equipment and terminated correctly
and pay special attention to grounding. Strictly observe the corresponding guidelines contained in
this section.
Modules and units may only be replaced by correspondingly trained personnel. Always observe
the basic precautions to avoid damage due to electrostatic discharge when handling the
equipment.
In certain cases, the settings have to be configured according to the demands of the engineering
configuration after replacement. It is therefore assumed that the personnel who replace modules
and units are familiar with the use of the operator program on the service PC.
DANGER!
Only insert or withdraw the PWR module while the power supply is switched off. To this end,
disconnect the power supply cable that connects with the PWR module.
WARNING!
Only insert or withdraw other modules while the power supply is switched off.
DANGER!

14 Installation
WARNING!
Industry packs and ribbon cables may only be replaced or the positions of jumpers be changed on
a workbench appropriately designed for working on electronic equipment. The modules,bus
backplanes are sensltive to electrostatic discharge when not in the unit`s housing.
◼ Should boards have to be removed from this relay installed in a grounded cubicle in an HV
switchgear installation, please discharge yourself by touching staion ground (the cubicle)
beforehand.
◼ Only hold electronic boards at the edges, taking care not to touch the compoments.
◼ Only works on boards that have been removed from the cubicle on a workbench designed for
electronic equipment and wear a grounded wristband. Do not wear a grounded wristband,
however, while inserting or withdrawing units.
◼ Always store and ship the electronic boards in their original packing. Place electronic parts in
electrostatic screened packing materials.
Check that the consignment is complete immediately upon receipt. Notify the nearest NARI
Company or agent, should departures from the delivery note, the shipping papers or the order be
found.
Visually inspect all the material when unpacking it. When there is evidence of transport damage,
lodge a claim immediately in writing with the last carrier and notify the nearest NARI Company or
agent.
If the equipment is not going to be installed immediately, store all the parts in their original packing
in a clean dry place at a moderate temperature. The humidity at a macimum temperature and the
permissible storage temperature range in dry air are listed in Chapter “Technical Data”.
The necessary mounting kits will be provided, including screws, pincers and assembly
instructions.
A suitable drill and spanners are required to secure the cubicles to the floor using the plugs
provided(if this relay is mounted in cubicles).
The place of installation should permit easy access especially to front of the device, i.e. to the

14 Installation
There should also be free access at the rear of the equipment for additions and replacement of
electronic boards.
Since every piece of technical equipment can be damaged or destroyed by inadmissible ambient
conditions,such as:
1. The location should not be exposed to excessive air pollution (dust, aggressive substances).
2. Severe vibration, extreme changes of temperature, high levels of humidity, surge voltages of
high amplitude and short rise time and strong induced magnetic fields should be avoided as far as
possible.
The equipment can in principle be mounted in any attitude, but it is normally mounted vertically
(visibility of markings).
WARNING!
Excessively high temperature can appreciably reduce the operating life of this relay.
The device adopts IEC standard chassis and is rack with modular structure. It uses an integral
faceplate and plug terminal block on backboard for external connections. NSR-371A series is IEC

In the case of equipment supplied in cubicles, place the cubicles on the foundations that have
been prepared. Take care while doing so not to jam or otherwise damage any of the cables that
have already been installed.
3.Connect grounding wires to IED, please see Section 14.7.1~14.7.5 for the details.
4.Connect AC wires and terminal,tighten the screws of AC terminal, please see Section 14.7.6 for
the details..
Switching operations in HV installations generate transient over voltages on control signal cables.
There is also a background of electromagnetic RF fields in electrical installations that can induce
spurious currents in the devices themselves or the leads connected to them.
64
14 Installation
On the other hand, electronic apparatus can transmit interference that can disrupt the operation of
other apparatus.
In order to minimize these influences as far as possible, certain standards have to be observed
with respect to grounding, wiring and screening.
NOTE!
All these precautions can only be effective if the station ground is of good quality.
The cubicle must be designed and fitted out such that the impedance for RF interference of the
ground path from the electronic device to the cubicle ground terminal is as low as possible.
Metal accessories such as side plates, blanking plates etc., must be effectively connected
surface-to-surface to the grounded frame to ensure a low-impedance path to ground for RF
interference. The contact surfaces must not only conduct well, they must also be non-corroding.
NOTE!
If the above conditions are not fulfilled, there is a possibility of the cubicle or parts of it forming a
resonant circuit at certain frequencies that would amplify the transmission of interference by the
devices installed and also reduce their immunity to induced interference.
Movable parts of the cubicle such as doors (front and back) or hinged equipment frames must be
effectively grounded to the frame by three braided copper strips (see Figure 14.7.1).
65
14 Installation
The metal parts of the cubicle housing and the ground rail are interconnected electrically
conducting and corrosion proof. The contact surfaces shall be as large as possible.
NOTE!
For metallic connections please observe the voltage difference of both materials according to the
electrochemical code.
The cubicle ground rail must be effectively connected to the station ground rail by a grounding
strip (braided copper).
There is a ground terminal on the rear panel, and the ground braided copper strip can be
connected with it. Take care that the grounding strip is always as short as possible. The main thing
is that the device is only grounded at one point. Grounding loops from unit to unit are not allowed.
There are some ground terminals on some connectors of this relay, and the sign is “GND”. All the
ground terminals are connected in the cabinet of this relay. So, the ground terminal on the rear
panel (see Figure 14.7.2) is the only ground terminal of this device.
66
14 Installation
High frequency currents are produced by interference in the ground connections and because of
skin effect at these frequencies, only the surface region of the grounding strips is of consequence.
The grounding strips must therefore be of (preferably tinned) braided copper and not round
copper conductors, as the cross-section of round copper would have to be too large.
Proper terminations must be fitted to both ends (press/pinch fit and tinned) with a hole for bolting
them firmly to the items to be connected.
The surfaces to which the grounding strips are bolted must be electrically conducting and
non-corroding.
There are several types of cables that are used in the connection of this relay: braided copper
cable, serial communication cable etc. Recommendation of each cable:
⚫ Grounding: braided copper cable with green and yellow in parallel, 2.5mm2 ~ 6.0mm2
⚫ Power supply, binary inputs & outputs: brained copper cable, 1.0mm2 ~ 2.5mm2
A female connector is used for connecting the wires with it, and then a female connector plugs into
a corresponding male connector that is in the front of one board. See Chapter “Hardware” for
further details about the pin defines of these connectors.

11.1 Overview
This relay is fully numerical in their design, implementing all protection and non-protection
functions in software. The relay employs a high degree of self-checking and in the unlikely event
of a failure, will give an alarm. As a result of this, the commissioning test does not need to be as
extensive as with non-numeric electronic or electro-mechanical relays.
To commission numerical relays, it is only necessary to verify that the hardware is functioning
correctly and the application-specific software settings have been applied to the relay.
Blank commissioning test and setting records are provided at the end of this manual for
completion as required.
Before carrying out any work on the equipment, the user should be familiar with the contents of
the safety and technical data sections and the ratings on the equipment’s rating label.

When commissioning this device for the first time, sufficient time should be allowed to become
familiar with the method by which the settings are applied. A detailed description of the menu
structure of this relay is contained in Chapter “Operation Theory” and Chapter “Settings”.
With the front cover in place all keys are accessible. All menu cells can be read. The LED
indicators and alarms can be reset. Protection or configuration settings can be changed, or fault
and event records cleared. However, menu cells will require the appropriate password to be
entered before changes can be made.
These product checks cover all aspects of the relay which should be checked to ensure that it has
not been physically damaged prior to commissioning, is functioning correctly and all input quantity
measurements are within the stated tolerances.
If the application-specific settings have been applied to the relay prior to commissioning, it is
advisable to make a copy of the settings so as to allow them restoration later. This could be done
by extracting the settings from the relay itself via printer or manually creating a setting record.
This relay is fully numerical and the hardware is continuously monitored. Commissioning tests can
be kept to a minimum and need only include hardware tests and conjunctive tests. The function
tests are carried out according to user’s correlative regulations.
The following tests are necessary to ensure the normal operation of the equipment before it is first
put into service.
◼ Hardware tests
These tests are performed for the following hardware to ensure that there is no hardware defect.
Defects of hardware circuits other than the following can be detected by self-monitoring when the
DC power is supplied.
71

◼ Function tests
These tests are performed for the following functions that are fully software-based. Tests of the
protection schemes and fault locator require a dynamic test set.
◼ Timers test
◼ Conjunctive tests
The tests are performed after the relay is connected with the primary equipment and other
external equipment.
◼ On load test.
After unpacking the product, check for any damage to the relay case. If there is any damage, the
internal module might also have been affected, contact the vendor. The following items listed is
necessary.
◼ Protection panel
Carefully examine the protection panel, protection equipment inside and other parts inside to see
that no physical damage has occurred since installation.
The rated information of other auxiliary protections should be checked to ensure it is correct for
the particular installation.
◼ Panel wiring
Check the conducting wire which is used in the panel to assure that their cross section meeting
the requirement.
Carefully examine the wiring to see that they are no connection failure exists.
◼ Label
Check all the isolator binary inputs, terminal blocks, indicators, switches and push buttons to
make sure that their labels meet the requirements of this project.
Check each plug-in module of the equipments on the panel to make sure that they are well
installed into the equipment without any screw loosened.
◼ Earthing cable
Check whether the earthing cable from the panel terminal block is safely screwed to the panel
steel sheet.
72
15 Commissioning
Check whether all the switches, equipment keypad, isolator binary inputs and push buttons work
normally and smoothly.
Insulation resistance tests are only necessary during commissioning if it is required for them to be
done and they have not been performed during installation.
Isolate all wiring from the earth and test the isolation with an electronic or brushless insulation
tester at a DC voltage not exceeding 500V, The circuits need to be tested should include:
◼ DC power supply
◼ Output contacts
◼ Communication ports
Test method:
To unplug all the terminals sockets of this relay, and do the Insulation resistance test for each
circuit above with an electronic or brushless insulation tester.
On completion of the insulation resistance tests, ensure all external wiring is correctly
reconnected to the protection.
Check that the external wiring is correct to the relevant relay diagram and scheme diagram.
Ensure as far as practical that phasing/phase rotation appears to be as expected.
Check the wiring against the schematic diagram for the installation to ensure compliance with the
customer’s normal practice.
The relay only can be operated under the auxiliary power supply depending on the relay’s nominal
power supply rating.
The incoming voltage must be within the operating range specified in Chapter “Technical Data”,
before energizing the relay, measure the auxiliary supply to ensure it within the operating range.
Other requirements to the auxiliary power supply are specified in Chapter “Technical Data”. See
this section for further details about the parameters of the power supply.
73
15 Commissioning
WARNING!
Energize this relay only if the power supply is within the specified operating ranges in Chapter
“Technical Data”.
The following groups of checks verify that the relay hardware and software is functioning correctly
and should be carried out with the auxiliary supply applied to the relay.
The current and voltage transformer connections must remain isolated from the relay for these
checks. The trip circuit should also remain isolated to prevent accidental operation of the
associated circuit breaker.
Connect the relay to DC power supply correctly and turn the relay on. Check program version and
forming time displayed in command menu to ensure that are corresponding to what ordered.
If the time and date is not being maintained by substation automation system, the date and time
should be set manually.
Set the date and time to the correct local time and date using menu item “Clock modification”.
In the event of the auxiliary supply failing, with a battery fitted on CPU board, the time and date will
be maintained. Therefore when the auxiliary supply is restored the time and date will be correct
and not need to set again.
To test this, remove the auxiliary supply from the relay for approximately 30s. After being
re-energized, the time and date should be correct.
On power up, the green LED “IN SERVICE” should have illuminated and stayed on indicating that
the relay is healthy.
The relay has latched signal relays which remember the state of the trip, auto-reclose when the
relay was last energized from an auxiliary supply. Therefore these indicators may also illuminate
when the auxiliary supply is applied. If any of these LEDs are on then they should be reset before
proceeding with further testing. If the LED successfully reset, the LED goes out. There is no
testing required for that that LED because it is known to be operational.
It is likely that alarms related to voltage transformer supervision will not reset at this stage.
Apply the rated DC power supply and check that the “IN SERVICE” LED is lighting in green. We
need to emphasize that the “IN SERVICE” LED is always lighting in operation course except that
the equipment find serious errors in it.

Once an input signal state has changed, for example, from “0” to “1”, the protection device will
save it as an event record in the input position change report.
It can record the AI values and BI states before/after/during system disturbance, which can help
the user better understand the action behavior of the primary/secondary device in the power
system. In addition, the user can analyze the disturbance data to obtain more valuable information
and improve the device performance, offering reference to the planning and design of future
projects.
The distance records consist of fault reports and fault waveforms. The disturbance records are
started by the start element of the protection device.
1. The start element acts and the protection element simultaneously acts; or
79
15 Commissioning
The protection device can save 64 fault reports, which will not lose in case of power loss. If the
memory has saved 64 reports and when a new report is generated, the earliest report will be
automatically overwritten. With consideration to frequent starts, the device will save at least 48
complete trip reports, i.e., if 48 trip reports have been saved and the newly generated report only
contains start, it will cyclically overwrite the 16 start reports but not the 48 trip reports.
Each action report has a automatically generated serial No., which can be displayed on LCD.
The protection device can reach 1ms resolution via the internal communication clock or GPS
timing. The time mark of the fault report stands for the action moment of the protection start
element.
3. Action time
The action time refers to the duration from the time fault occurs to the time the protection element
acts, which excludes the inherent action time of the output relay.
The protection operation component in the report refers to the protection relay component
operated in this fault.
The protection device can totally keep 64 fault waveforms, including current and voltage, with
pattern compatible with COMTRADE. If it has stored 64 fault waveforms, the oldest waveform
without tripping will be replaced by the latest waveform.
Each waveform contains the data in the 2 cycles prior to fault and the data in the 6 cycles after
fault. If the protection element does not act, the transient waveform in the previous 8 cycles and
the subsequent amplitude waveform will form the full waveform. If the protection acts, however,
another additional 8 waveforms before/after the fault element acts will be recorded, i.e., the whole
waveform consists of at least 16 cycles of transient values. At the interval of transient waveform,
the device will compress the waveform, i.e., only the amplitude at one point is recorded in a cycle.
11.8 Self-check
Although the protection device is in non-action state during normal running, it must be in good
condition so that it can make timely response to system fault. The protection device is in
self-check state to make sure the hardware is free from any damage from energization to on of
“Run” LED. The self-check function, both the energization self-check and the continuous
self-check during running, plays a vital role in normal running of the protection device.
80
15 Commissioning
If any fault is detected during energization, the protection device will be blocked and all the
protection functions will be disabled from running. The operator must re-energize the protection
device and resume it to normal running.
If serious damage is detected by the self-check program, it will remind the operator via LCD
display, signal LED or alarm contact. The program will record the abnormal conditions for future
interrogation or print.
The hardware circuit and software of the protection device are under supervision of self-check
function all the time. Once any abnormal condition occurs, the associated alarm information will
be displayed.
Some abnormal alarm may block some protection functions, and some serious hardware fault and
abnormal alarm may block the protection device where the “Run” LED will go off and the blocking
contact for output signal will be blocked and the protection device must be disabled from running
to be repaired.
NOTE: If the protection device is blocked and alarm information is sent out during running,
the operator must view the self-check report and identify the fault reason instead of
pressing “Reset” button or restarting the device. If the fault reason cannot be identified in
the site, please inform the manufacturer without delay.
The working condition for hardware circuit and software of the protection device shall be
monitored constantly by Self-check. Corresponding alarm information will be displayed once any
abnormal situation occurs.
81
15 Commissioning
The device will automatically perform self-check for the DSP and RAM in the CPU module and
make sure no damage or abnormal condition occurs. If any component is detected with fault or in
abnormal condition, the protection device will be automatically blocked.
The device will automatically check such cores as DSP and RAM in CPU module to ensure no
damage or abnormal condition exists. The protection device will be closed automatically with
alarm when fault or abnormal condition is detected.
The starting time for pickup components shall not be longer than 20s, otherwise the device will
send out alarm information of [long-time pickup protection] without closure of protection device.
The binary output circuit is also under uninterrupted supervision. If any fault is detected in the
circuits, the protection device will send out [Trip/close output abnormal] alarm and block the
protection device simultaneously.
82
15 Commissioning
NSR protection device series protection device is provided with up to 10 independent setting
zones but only one setting zone is in active state at one time.
The protection device carries out self-test of the settings of present effective setting zones to
ensure that they are within a reasonable setting scope. In case any invalid setting is discovered,
the device will send out alarm information of “setting check error” and will be blocked at the same
time. Meanwhile, the device carries out sum check on all setting zones, and if any error exists, the
protection device will send out the alarm information of “setting error” and will be blocked at the
same time.
If none of the setting area in the 10 setting areas is not adjusted in advance, when the protection
device is powered, it will send out [valid setting in the area] alarm information. Furthermore, if the
setting [rated setting of secondary current] is modified in the adjusted setting area without other
protection setting not being reconfirmed, or some setting is out of the adjusted scope, and the
protection device will send out alarm information of [invalid setting in the area].
The change of temperature or other environmental factors may result in zero drift in the input
voltage/current. The protection device can automatically trace the zero and regulate the sampling
data to normal value in an uninterrupted manner.
The device will compare the AC sampling values input to CPU and DSP. The data sampled in one
AC channel are generally the same. Accordingly, when CPT finds out some data are different from
that in DSP, it will judge it as data error, send out [sampling abnormal] alarm and block the
protection device.
The protection device provides constant monitoring to the positive pole of the power circuit. It will
send out [BI power abnormal] alarm information when there is fault.
The function is designed to check the integrity of PT secondary circuit and make sure the voltage
measured by the protection device is the real reflection of the primary system voltage. When PT
secondary circuit is abnormal, some protection elements based on voltage will possibly have
malfunction.
The function is designed to check the integrity of CT secondary circuit and make sure the current
measured by the protection device is the real reflection of the primary system current. When CT
83
15 Commissioning
secondary circuit is abnormal, some protection elements based on current will possibly have
malfunction. CT abnormality monitoring function is always enabled, no matter whether some
starting element is started.
The function is to test the soundness of failure binary input secondary circuit, and ensure that the
failure binary input acquired by protection device is correct; if the maintenance time of failure
binary input is over 5S, the device will Report long start of failure binary input, send out the alarm
information of “long start of failure”, and turn on the “alarm” light.
After the above tests are completed, remove all test or temporary shorting leads, etc. If it has been
necessary to disconnect any of the external wiring from the protection in order to perform the
wiring verification tests, it should be ensured that all connections are replaced in accordance with
the relevant external connection or scheme diagram.
If the protection is in a new installation or the circuit breaker has just been maintained, the
circuit breaker maintenance and current counters should be zero. If a test block is installed,
remove the test plug and replace the cover so that the protection is put into service.
Ensure that all event records, fault records, disturbance records and alarms have been
cleared and LED’s has been reset before leaving the protection.
84
16 Maintenance
12 Maintenance
NARI protection device is designed to require no special maintenance. All measurement and
signal processing circuit are fully solid state. All input modules are also fully solid state. The output
relays are hermetically sealed.
Since the device is almost completely self-monitored, from the measuring inputs to the
output relays, hardware and software defects are automatically detected and reported. The
self-monitoring ensures the high availability of the device and generally allows for a corrective
rather than preventive maintenance strategy. Therefore, maintenance checks in short intervals
are not required.
Operation of the device is automatically blocked when a hardware failure is detected. If a problem
is detected in the external measuring circuits, the device normally only provides alarm messages.
1.The relay case should be clean without any dust stratification. Case cover should be sealed well.
No component has any mechanical damage and distortion, and they should be firmly fixed in the
case. Relay terminals should be in good condition. The keys on the front panel with very good
feeling can be operated flexibly.
2.It is only allowed to plug or withdraw relay board when the supply is reliably switched off. Never
allow the CT secondary circuit connected to this equipment to be opened while the primary
system is live when withdrawing an AC module. Never try to insert or withdraw the relay board
when it is unnecessary.
3.Check weld spots on PCB whether they are well soldered without any rosin joint. All dual inline
components must be well plugged.
When a failure is detected by supervision, a remote alarm is issued and the failure is indicated on
the front panel with LED indicators and LCD display. It is also recorded in the event record.
Failures detected by supervision are traced by checking the “ALARM LOG” screen on the LCD.
85
16 Maintenance
If the failure is identified to be in the relay module and the user has spare modules, the user can
recover the protection by replacing the failed modules.
Repair at the site should be limited to module replacement. Maintenance at the component level is
not recommended. Check that the replacement module has an identical module name (AI, PWR,
CPU, SIG, BI, BO,etc.) and hardware type-form as the removed module. Furthermore, the CPU
module replaced should have the same software version. In addition, the AI and PWR module
replaced should have the same ratings.
The module name is indicated on the top front of the module. The software version is indicated in
LCD menu “VERSION”.
CAUTION!
When handling a module, take anti-static measures such as wearing an earthed wrist band and
placing modules on an earthed conductive mat. Otherwise, many of the electronic components
could suffer damage. After replacing the CPU module, check the settings.
1) Replacing a module

K1
LED Figure 1 indicated the current isolator position of each component in Figure1, in
which K1 and K2 are auxiliary contacts of FSW. There are three position states for FSW:
self-adaption, forced through and forced break. The relationship between position state
and position of K1 and K2 is shown in the following table.
When the isolator position is abnormal, the correct isolator position is designated through
FSW, and then press the "isolator position confirmation" button on the panel to inform
differential protection device to read the correct isolator position. It is notable that the FSW
shall be recover to automatic position after the completion of isolator position
maintenance.
The mimic board adopts 4U standard case, and take the NSR-398MB with 24 bays as
example with its panel configuration shown in Figure2.
