10.2.5.1 Checking Differential Protection
For single-side feed, the fault current characteristic crosses the first knee of the
tripping characteristic of the P631 so that the basic threshold value is always
checked.
The current I to which the P631 responds for single-side feed is calculated as
follows:
I =
I
diff >
⋅ I
nom,z
k
am,z
●
z: transformer end (a, b)
●
I
diff>
: set operate value
●
I
nom,z
: nominal current of the P631 for transformer end a, b
●
k
am,z
: amplitude-matching factor of transformer end a, b
For single-side one-phase or two-phase feed, a vector group-matching factor in
accordance with the set vector group ID needs to be taken into account in
addition to the amplitude-matching factor. The vector group-matching factors are
given in the tables below and the threshold current is calculated as follows:
I ≥
I
diff >
⋅ I
nom,z
k
am,z
⋅ k
s,y,z
●
z: transformer end (a, b)
●
I
diff>
: set operate value
●
I
nom,z
: nominal current of the P631 for transformer end a, b
●
k
am,z
: amplitude-matching factor of transformer end a, b
●
k
s,y,z
: vector group-matching factor (see tables below)
The differential and restraining currents formed by the P631 are displayed as
measured operating data. They aid in assessing whether the connection of the
P631 to the system current transformers and the setting of the vector group ID
are correct. The tables below give the factors ks which serve to calculate the
differential current for single-side feed. The display of differential and restraining
currents is prevented, however, if they fall below minimum thresholds that can
be set by the user.

In evaluating the test results, one should be aware that the P631 will trip as
follows, if a value of I
diff>>
or I
diff>>>
is exceeded.
●
I
diff>>
exceeded: Trip regardless of the inrush and overfluxing restraint;
●
I
diff>>>
exceeded: Trip regardless of the restraining current and regardless
of all other restraints.
