Protection Functions
Out-of-Step Logic (Conventional)
(i.e., an unbalanced fault has occurred). The negative-sequence current level
detector 50QUB determines the sensitivity of the 67QUBF or 67QUBR elements,
for all zones except Zone 1.
If a three-phase fault occurs during a power swing that has operated the OOS
logic, the logic also overrides OOS blocking; a set of internally derived inner
blinders encompasses the protected line and detects internal three-phase faults.
The OOS logic can also detect a power swing when a single-pole open condition
exists; for such a case, the logic can block both phase and ground-distance pro-
tection.
Refer to Section 6: Protection Applications Examples for detailed descriptions of
the various functions utilized by the OOS logic.
The following rules apply when you set the OOS logic:
➤ You can enable the OOS logic when setting Z1ANG is greater than
45 degrees.
➤ Settings X1T6, X1T7, R1R6, and R1R7 must be set to a positive
value.
➤ Settings X1B6, X1B7, R1L6, and R1L7 must be set to a negative
value.
➤ Setting R1R6 must be set less than R1R7.
