87L Standby Channel Switchover Logic
87L Standby Channel Switchover Logic
This section applies only to two-terminal applications over a redundant serial
channel (E87CH = 2SD).
In the 2SD configuration, the relay uses the remote currents from the channel
indicated by the 87PCH setting as long as this channel is working, provides
high quality data synchronization, and switches over upon problems with the
primary channel to the other channel if the other channel is working and has
better synchronization quality. The 87HSB Relay Word bit controls
switchover (if 87HSB is deasserted, the relay uses the 87PCH channel.
Otherwise, the relay uses the other channel) as Figure 3.208 shows.
Note that the switchover occurs for the raw current samples, potentially
causing a disturbance in such scheme components as filtered currents,
magnitudes, and sequence components. As a result, the relay applies proper
security to the 87L function for a brief period following the switchover.
