Date Code 20111215 Reference Manual SEL-421 Relay
Synchrophasors
Settings for Synchrophasors
TREA1, TREA2, TREA3, TREA4, and PMTRIG
Defines the programmable trigger bits as allowed by IEEE C37.118.
Each of the four Trigger Reason settings, TREA1–TREA4, and the PMU
Trigger setting, PMTRIG, are SEL
OGIC control equations in the Global
settings class. The SEL-421 evaluates these equations and places the results in
Relay Word bits with the same names: TREA1–TREA4, and PMTRIG.
The trigger reason equations represent the Trigger Reason bits in the STAT
field of the data packet. After the trigger reason bits are set to convey a
message, the PMTRIG Equation should be asserted for a reasonable amount
of time, to allow the synchrophasor processor to read the TREA1–TREA4
fields.
The IEEE C37.118 standard defines the first eight of 16 binary combinations
of these trigger reason bits (bits 0–3).
The remaining eight binary combinations are available for user definition.
The SEL-421 does not automatically set the TREA1–TREA4 or PMTRIG
Relay Word bits—these bits must be programmed.
