1. Subject the IED to healthy normal load conditions for at least two seconds.
2. Apply the fault condition and slowly decrease the measured impedance to find the
operating value of the phase-to-phase fault for zone 1 according to test point 1 in
figure 23 and table 18. Compare the result of the measurement with the set value.
3. Repeat steps 1 to 2 to find the operating value for test points 2, 3 in table 18.
Observe that the zones that are not tested have to be blocked and the zone that is
tested has to be released.
4. Repeat steps
1 to 3 to find the operating value for the phase-to-ground fault C-E
according to figure
24 and table 19.
Test points 8, 9. 10 and 11 are intended to test the directional lines of
impedance protection. Since directionality is a common function for
all 5 measuring zones, it is only necessary to test points 8, 9. 10 and
11 once in the forward direction in order to test the accuracy of
directionality (directional angles). Directional functionality testing
(trip inside, no-trip outside) should always be made for all
impedance zones set with directionality (forward or reverse).
11.4.1.2 Measuring the operating time of distance protection zones
Procedure:
1. Subject the IED to healthy normal load conditions for at least two seconds.
2. Apply the fault condition to find the operating time for the phase-to-phase fault
according to test point 12 in figure 23 and table 18 for zone 1. Compare the result of
the measurement with the setting t1PP.
3. Repeat steps 1 to 2 to find the operating time for the phase-to-ground fault according
to test point 12 in figure
24 and table 19. Compare the result of the measurement with
the setting t1PE.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 to find the operating time for all other used measuring zones.
Observe that the zones that are not tested have to be blocked and the zone that is
tested has to be released.
11.4.1.3 Completing the test
Continue to test another function or end the test by changing the TESTMODE setting to
Disabled. Restore connections and settings to their original values, if they were changed
for testing purposes.
