Event Reports, Event Summaries, and Event Histories
Figure 8.16 Sample Event History
Fault location data can be indeterminate (for example, when you trigger an
event and there is no fault on the power system). If this is the case, the relay
displays
$$$$.$$ for the Location entry in the event history. You will also see
the
$$$$.$$ display if the fault location enable setting EFLOC is N.
The event types in the event history are the same as the event types in the event
summary (see Table 8.7 for event types).
The event history report indicates events stored in relay nonvolatile memory.
The relay places a blank row in the history report output; items that are above
the blank row are available for viewing (use the EVE and CEV commands).
Items that are below the blank row are no longer in relay memory; these
events appear in the history report to indicate past power system performance.
The relay does not ordinarily modify the numerical or time order in the history
report. However, if an event report is corrupted (power was lost during
storage, for example), the relay lists the history report line for this event after
the blank row.
Viewing the Event History
Access the history report from the communications ports and communications
cards. View and download history reports from Access Level 1 and higher.
You can also clear or reset history data from Access Levels 1 and higher. You
can independently clear/reset history data at each communications port so that
you and users at other ports (SCADA, Engineering, etc.) can retrieve complete
history reports. You can also clear all history data from all ports (with the HIS
CA and HIS RA commands).
Use the HIS command from a terminal to obtain the event history. You can
view event histories by date or by date range, or you can specify the number of
the most recent events that the relay returns. See HISTORY on page P.15.27
for information on the HIS command. Table 8.9 lists the HIS commands.

NOTE: The relay displays the
traveling wave information in the
LOCAT field if the fault location
method (FLM) is traveling wave (TW).
If FLM is not TW, then the relay
displays the results of the impedance-
based fault location calculations.
