3.4 7SR Relay: Restricted Earth Fault Protection - 4 Wire 5CT

Figure 3-6 Example System – 4 Wire + Earth REF Protection

CT and Connection Details

Line CT (LCT) Neutral CT (NCT) Earth CT (ECT)


Turns ratio (T) 1/600 1/600 1/600
Voltage Knee Point (VK) 360V 450V 300V
Magnetising Current (Imag) @ VK 30mA 20mA 40mA
CT secondary resistance (RCT) 7.5 4.5 6.0
CT lead loop resistance (RL) 0.15 0.5 0.2

Settings Requirements
Rated current = VA / ( 3 x VL)
Rated current = 10 x 106 / ( 3 x 11000) = 525A
Assigned through fault current (rated stability limit) = 16 x rated current = 8.4kA. See section 2.2.1
Required Primary Operate Current (Fault Setting)
10 – 25% of protected winding rated current, or as specified by the user.
POCprov (10 – 25% of Irated) = 52.5 - 131A. Say 60A. (0.1A secondary). See section 2.2.2

Calculation of Stabilising Resistor Value

The required relay setting Is can be calculated from:


POC = ( 3(IMAGLCT) + IMAGNCT + IMAGECT + Is ) / T
Is = POC x T – (3(IMAGLCT) + IMAGNCT + IMAGECT) = 60/600 – (3(IMAGLCT) + IMAGNCT + IMAGECT)
= 0.1 – (3(IMAGLCT) + IMAGNCT + IMAGECT)

Say Vsprov = 120V (from requirement 107.1 < Vs < 180)


From CT magnetising curve: At 120V IMAGLCT = 7mA , IMAGNCT = 4mA and IMAGECT = 9mA
Is = 0.1 – (3(0.007) + 0.004 + 0.009) = 0.066A say 0.065A
Rstab = Vs/Is = 120/.065 = 1846 Ohms (Say 1800 Ohms giving Vs = 1800 x 0.065 = 117V)

Metrosil Specification

‘C’ Value
Vs = 117V (i.e. > 100V) so a ‘C’ value of 1000 is chosen

Summary of Relay Settings and Components

REF Element = Enabled


REF Setting = 0.065A
REF Delay = 0s

Rstab = 1800 Ohms, 60W continuous (typical manufacturers data)

Metrosil: diameter = 75mm, ‘C’ value = 1000

POC (Fault Setting) = ( 3(IMAGLCT) + IMAGNCT + IMAGECT + Is ) / T


POC = (3(0.007) + 0.004 + 0.009 + 0.065) x 600 = 59.4A
