If the measured voltage level decreases below the setting of MinValFreqMeas in the
preprocessing function, both the START and the TRIP outputs are blocked.
10.3.7.4 Design
Rate-of-change frequency protection (SAPFRC) measuring element continuously
measures the frequency of the selected voltage and compares it to the setting
StartFreqGrad. The frequency signal is filtered to avoid transients due to power
system switchings and faults. The time integrator operates with a definite delay time.
When the frequency has returned back to the setting of RestoreFreq, the RESTORE
output is issued after the time delay tRestore, if the TRIP signal has earlier been issued.
The sign of the setting StartFreqGrad is essential, and controls if the function is used
for raising or lowering frequency conditions. The design of SAPFRC is schematically
described in figure
268.
