2.2.4 FAULT RECORD EVENTS
An event record is created for every fault the IED detects. This is also known as a fault record.
The event type description shown in the Event Text
cell for this type of event is always Fault Recorded.
The IED contains a separate register containing the latest fault records. This provides a convenient way of
viewing the latest fault records and saves searching through the event log. You access these fault records
using the Select Fault setting, where fault number 0 is the latest fault.
A fault record is triggered by the Fault REC TRIG signal DDB, which is assigned in the PSL. The fault
recorder records the values of all parameters associated with the fault for the duration of the fault. These
parameters are stored in separate Courier cells, which become visible depending on the type of fault.
The fault recorder stops recording only when:
The Start signal is reset AND the undercurrent is ON OR the Trip signal is reset, as shown below:

Figure 39: Fault recorder stop conditions
The event is logged as soon as the fault recorder stops. The time stamp assigned to the fault corresponds to
the start of the fault. The timestamp assigned to the fault record event corresponds to the time when the fault
recorder stops.
