2.6 Flexible Protection Functions
The flexible protection function is applicable for a variety of protection principles. The user can create up to 20
flexible protection functions and configure them according to their function. Each function can be used either
as an autonomous protection function, as an additional protective element of an existing protection function or
as a universal logic, e.g. for monitoring tasks.
2.6.1 Functional Description
General
The function is a combination of a standard protection logic and a characteristic (measured quantity or derived
quantity) that is adjustable via parameters. The characteristics listed in table 2-6 and the derived protection
functions are available.
Table 2-6 Possible Protection Functions
The maximum 20 configurable protection functions operate independently of each other. The following descrip-
tion concerns one function; it can be applied accordingly to all other flexible functions. The logic diagram 2-20
illustrates the description.
Functional Logic
The function can be switched ON and OFF or, it can be set to Alarm Only. In this status, a pickup condition
will neither initiate fault recording nor start the trip time delay. Tripping is thus not possible.
Changing the Power System Data 1 after flexible functions have been configured may cause these functions
to be set incorrectly. Message (FNo.235.2128 „$00 inval.set“) reports this condition. The function is in-
active in this case and function's setting has to be modified.
