Power Elements (Available in Firmware Version 7)
Power Elements (Available in Firmware Version 7)
Four independent power elements are available. For wye-connected systems,
either single-phase power elements or three-phase power elements may be
enabled (but not both). For delta-connected systems, only three-phase power
elements may be enabled. The group setting EPWR setting determines how
many (and what type of) power elements are enabled:
EPWR = N (none), 1, 2, 3, 4 (single-phase); 3P1, 3P2, 3P3, 3P4
(three-phase) {wye-connected voltages}
EPWR = N (none), 3P1, 3P2, 3P3, 3P4 (three-phase) {delta-connected
voltages}
Each enabled power element can be set to detect real power or reactive power.
With SEL
OGIC control equations, the power elements provide a wide variety
of protection and control applications. Typical applications are:
➤ Overpower and/or underpower protection/control
➤ Reverse power protection/control
➤ VAR control for capacitor banks
Power Elements
Settings
The power element type settings are made in reference to the load convention:
+WATTS: positive or forward real power
–WATTS: negative or reverse real power
+VARS: positive or forward reactive power (lagging)
–VARS: negative or reverse reactive power (leading)
