S&C 6801 User Manual

Switch Control Setup
Reverse Current Time Threshold (seconds)
This is the minimum qualication time a change in current direction must persist after
detection before it is displayed or reported. The default is 10 seconds. This setting was
not previously congurable. Set this value to the Disabled mode to stop reporting the
change of current direction, and any present indication of a reverse current condition
will be cleared. (Range: 10-43,200; Step: 1; Default: 10)
Reversed Color Lamps
This setting congures the color of the Open and Closed indicators on the Operation
screen. When the Reversed Color Lamps setting is enabled, the Open indicator is red
and the Closed indicator is green. When the Reversed Color Lamps setting is disabled,
the Open indicator is green and the Closed indicator is red. (Default: Disabled)
Detect Faulty Voltage Sensor (for SG6801, SG6801E33, and SG6802DO only)
For a closed switch only, when enabled, this setting validates a detected Loss of Voltage
condition by conrming that a Loss of Current condition is also detected. The SG6801E33
software conrms a Loss of Voltage condition with a cross comparison of its voltage
sensors. (Default: No)
Normal Current Direction
Select from the drop-down list: Sensor to Non-sensor Side (default) or Non-sensor
to Sensor Side. This setting is used by the IntelliTeam system application to accurately
determine team loading in circuits with bi-directional power ow due to Distributed
Generation penetration. By selecting Sensor to Non-sensor Side setting the IntelliTeam
logic assumes normal direction current ows from the sensor side to the non-sensor
side of the switch. These assumptions are reversed when Non-sensor to Sensor Side
setting is selected. Normal direction means current is owing from the normal utility
source (not distributed generation) to the load
Normal Current Direction (For the 6801 E33 Control only)
Select from the drop-down list: Jaw-side to Hinge-side (default) or Hinge-side to Jaw-
side. This setting is used by the IntelliTeam system application to accurately determine
team loading in circuits with bi-directional power ow due to Distributed Generation
penetration. By selecting Jaw-side to Hinge-side setting the IntelliTeam logic assumes
normal direction current ows from the jaw-side to the hinge-side of the switch. These
assumptions are reversed when Hinge-side to Jaw-side is selected.
WARNING
If the Current Direction setpoint is incorrect, the IntelliTeam system application will
not be able to accurately determine the direction of current flow and may lead to a
mis-operation in the field.
Installation Voltage-Current Phase Angle Offsets
The setpoints (one for each voltage-current phase) allow installation-dependent
phase-angle corrections. The angle offsets are used to determine the Normal Current
and Reverse Current ow direction. These corrections and the Current Sensor Ratio
conguration on the Setup>General>Sensor Conguration screen are used to calculate
power factor and kvars. In the normal feeder conguration, this setpoint is used to adjust
the reported current direction at each switch to the Normal state. The team members
closest to the substations must have their sensors facing the substation. (Range: 0-990;
Step: 30: Default: 0)
The phase-angle detection and display require a minimum current of 0.75% of full
scale (6 amperes at 800 amperes full scale). Current magnitude is detected and displayed
below this level. The settings must be applied for the effect of changing an offset value
to be displayed on real-time data.
