Introduction

TripCircuit Supervision
E-Labs trip circuit &DCsupervision relay type TS101
is designed for supervision & monitoring of trip coils
and trip circuits of power circuit breakers. Its DC
supervision model is designed to monitor DC supply,
usually installed at the end of the DC loop. It
guarantees an efficient control systemfor power plants
andsubstations.
The health of the circuit breaker and associated cabling
of the trip circuit (trip cables and inter panel wiring) is a
vital element for proper and efficient operation of the
trip scheme. It is an important consideration for a
power plant or substation design to monitor the
healthiness of the trip circuit. Afaulty trip circuit would
completely jeopardize an efficiently and perfectly
designed protection system. In case of faulty trip circuit
the breaker shall refuse to open under fault condition
and heavy currents will continue to flow through the
power system. This would cause heavy losses and
failure of the power system by generating
indiscriminate tripping and probable loss of numerous
power system components would be experienced. The
fault may spread to a wide area and numerous upstream
backupprotections shall be tripped.
Relay TS101 is specially designed to serve the
supervision function of trip circuits &DC supervision
used for in time detection of such trip circuit /trip coil
DCSupervision
Highlightingfeatures
DC Supervision model ensures monitoring of
DC supply healthiness for DC supply
powered up substation IEDs & control
equipment.

Applicable for single pole and three pole

breakers

Application
Operating Principle
Ts101 is the best selection to ensure the availability of
the trip circuit, trip coil & DC supply. It detects the
validityand integrity of the trip coil and trip circuit of the
circuit breaker. The relay detects faulty or disconnected
trip circuit or faulty trip coil condition and generates
alarm on non vailability of trip circuit coil In this
way it ensures availability of trip circuit and trip coil,
confirming healthy trip operations It facilitates timely
maintenance (if required) before occurrence of a real
fault with faulty trip circuit. The relay performs its job for
both circuit breaker conditions (open & close) and can
alsobe usedfor the supervisionof closingcoil.
DC supervision model is usually installed at the end of
DCloop covering protection and control DCpowered up
equipment to ensure the availability of the protection
relays andassociatedequipment.
The relay monitors the continuity of the tripping circuit
by acting as a current generator. The circuit arrangement
is such that this current generator injects the current
(=2mA @ normal voltage) into tripping loop and then
through the circuit breaker trip coil. The magnitude of
this supervising current is kept very lowso that the coil is
neither heated up nor it is actuated. When the trip coil or
the trip loop is open, this continuity is lost and the relay
detects this open circuit and the alarms general alarm
and trip circuit faulty are initiated. The initiation of this
alarm is time delayed by 400ms. In addition, the relay
continuously monitors the circuit breaker control
voltage for under voltage conditions and activates an
output contact in case the DC falls below a factory
settable value for a settable time In either of the faults a
general alarmis activatedon the relay.
