3.30 Measuring-Circuit Monitoring (Function Groups MCM_1 to
MCM_4)
The measuring-circuit monitoring function featured by the P634 will detect faults
in the secondary circuits of the CTs. Measuring-circuit monitoring functions
MCM_1, MCM_2, MCM_3 or MCM_4 are permanently assigned to the transformer
ends monitored by the P634 .
Function group MCM_1 will serve as an example to illustrate the operation of the
measuring-circuit monitoring functions. The same will apply to function groups
MCM_2, MCM_3 and MCM_4.
3.30.1 Enabling or Disabling Measuring-Circuit Monitoring
The measuring-circuit monitoring function can be enabled or disabled using
setting parameters. Moreover, enabling can be carried out separately for each
parameter set.

3.30.2 Measuring-Circuit Monitoring
The negative- to positive-sequence current ratio is used as a criterion for
measuring-circuit monitoring. The measuring-circuit monitoring function is
triggered when the set ratio value, I
neg
/I
pos
, is exceeded and either the negative-
or the positive-sequence current exceeds 0.02 I
nom
. After the set operate time-
delay has elapsed, a warning is issued.
The measuring-circuit monitoring functions can be used to detect broken
conductors on the CTs' primary sides.
●
The functions can now be blocked individually via input signals set at
MCM_x: Blocking EXT.
●
When the triggering condition is met an instantaneous starting signal is
raised: (MCM_x: Starting).
In the following logic diagram, the measuring-circuit monitoring function is
displayed using function group MCM_1 as an example.
