Autoreclosing and Synchronism-Check
Synchronism Check
synchronism-check input voltages in angle and magnitude to reference to the
synchronism-check voltage reference V
P
. The resultant Bus 1 and Bus 2
voltages are the normalized synchronism-check voltage sources V
S1
and V
S2
,
respectively.
Voltages V
P,
V
S1
, and V
S2
are used in the logic in the balance of this section to
check for healthy voltage and determine voltage phase angle for synchronism-
check element operation.

Voltage Checks and
Blocking Logic
Two conditions can cause the synchronism-check function in the relay to
abort. These conditions are out-of-range synchronism-check input voltages
and block synchronism-check configurations that you specify in SEL
OGIC
control equations.
Voltage Magnitude Checks
For synchronism-check to proceed for a given circuit breaker (BK1 or BK2),
the voltage magnitudes of the synchronism-check voltage reference V
P
and
the corresponding normalized synchronism-check voltage source on the other
side of the circuit breaker (normalized voltage V
S1
for Circuit Breaker BK1
and normalized voltage V
S2
for Circuit Breaker BK2) must lie within a
healthy voltage window, bounded by voltage threshold settings 25VH and
25VL (see Figure 4.26).
The relay asserts Relay Word bits 59VP, 59VS1, and 59VS2 to indicate
healthy synchronism-check voltages V
P
, V
S1
, and V
S2
, respectively (see
Figure 4.26). If either of the voltage pairs (V
P
and V
S1
or V
P
and V
S2
) does
not meet this healthy voltage criterion, synchronism-check cannot proceed for
the circuit breaker associated with the corresponding voltage pair.
