2.35.1 VCHK1 for 1CB system
(i) Characteristic and elements
VCHK1 does voltage and synchronous check in 1CB system. Four relay elements (OVB, OVB,
UVL, and UVL) are used for voltage check. Tow relay elements (OVB and OVL) are used for
verification of existing voltage; the remaining ones (UVB and UVL) are used for verification of
non-existing voltage.
(ii) Voltage condition and check zone
Figure 2.35-2 shows four zones (A1 to D1) for voltage verification. For example, if both UVB
and OVL elements are active, VHCK1 determines that the Bus-bar is in Dead condition (no-
voltage) and Line is in Live condition (existing voltage). This condition holds true for A1 zone.
If voltage condition matches with B1 zone, synchronous check is carried out on VCHK1. Thus,
this means that Synchronous check is not carried out in A1, C1 or D1 zones.
A1, C1, D1: Voltage check
B1: Synchronism check
