3.7. Voltage transformer supervision
The device supervises the VTs and VT wiring between the
device terminals and the VTs. If there is a fuse in the voltage
transformer circuitry, the blown fuse prevents or distorts the
voltage measurement. Therefore, an alarm should be issued.
Furthermore, in some applications, protection functions using
voltage signals, should be blocked to avoid false tripping.
The VT supervisor function measures the three phase voltages
and currents. The negative sequence voltage U
2
and the
negative sequence currentI
2
are calculated. If U
2
exceed the
U
2
> setting and at the same time, I
2
is less than the I
2
< setting,
the function will issue an alarm after the operation delay has
elapsed.
