Application
MiCOM P441 and P442 Numerical
Distance Relays provide
comprehensive distance protection for
the following applications: lines,
cables, tapped lines, lines with
multiple zero sequence sources,
non-homogeneous lines, series
compensated lines and parallel lines.
The resistive reach coverage allows
application to short lines and cable
protection. It provides complete
protection of solidly earthed systems
from distribution to transmission
voltage levels.

close-up faults, etc.).
The MiCOM P441 and P442 are
complete with a library of scheme
logic applications as well as user
programmable scheme logic,
metering, logging, oscillography and
advanced communication abilities.
Many back up functions are also
selectively available. Windows-based
software tools are provided to ease
setting, view data from the relays, and
analyse faults.
A range of communication protocols
allows connection with many external
devices thus providing remote
programming, control and extraction
of information.
Figure 1 is a single line diagram
giving the protection functions of the
MiCOM P441 and P442 relays.
For clarity, current related functions are
shown in red circles, voltage related
functions in green squares,
current/voltage related functions in
brown octagons.
Benefits of Use
MiCOM relays offer fast, secure
clearing for any type of fault.
The unique distance and
directionalising implementations
provide an optimum mix of speed,
selectivity and security for difficult fault
types and application situations.
In addition, the P441 and P442 offer
the following benefits:
Standardised relay selection for all
applications.
Simplified spares holding with dual
rated CT inputs.
No need for additional equipment
(voltage protection, current
protection, autorecloser, synchronism
check, disturbance recorder,
measurement devices).
Simple system integration through a
choice of protocols.
Faster fault diagnosis with fault
information, disturbance and event
records.

Distance Protection
Functions
Three phase tripping with faulted
phase indication is provided for all
protection functions.
In addition model P442 allows single-
phase tripping for the distance
protection and the channel-aided DEF
protection.
Dual distance protection
algorithms
The operation of the MiCOM relays is
based on the combined use of two
types of fault detection:
Calculation of the superimposed
current and voltage values that are
characteristic of the fault ("Delta"
algorithms).
Measurement of impedance values
("Conventional" algorithms).
This dual algorithm principle offers
dependable detection of all types of
faults occurring on the network. Proven

The impedance calculations are

numerical distance relay.
Delta algorithms
The Delta algorithms are based on
transient components. This is a
patented technique with 10 years
experience in various relays.
The current and voltage values are
continuously predicted, based on the
last two cycles, and the predicted
values are compared with the values
actually measured. A fault is detected
if the predicted and measured values
are different (I and V).
Faulted phase selection is made by
comparing the superimposed currents
for each phase.
The directional elements use the fault-
generated changes in the voltage and
current signals at the relay location,
referred to as the superimposed
signals, to determine the direction of a
fault. During a fault the voltage signal
changes by V and the current signal
changes by I.

Switch-on-to-fault (SOTF)/
Trip on reclose (TOR)
The Switch-On-To-Fault and Trip On
Reclose protection offers fast fault
clearance immediately following circuit
breaker closure. TOR can be
configured to trip only for faults in
selected zones so as to make sure the
fault is on the protected line. They can
also be directionalised by distance
schemes.
An overcurrent threshold (I>3) is
available to accelerate the trip on high
fault current.
The SOTF protection is blocked when
2nd harmonic is detected in order to
avoid maloperation due to transformer
magnetising inrush.
Channel-aided scheme logic
The relay is fitted with a
comprehensive selection of IEC and
ANSI/IEEE compatible channel-aided
schemes for 2 terminal feeders:
Permissive Underreach Protection,
Accelerating Zone 2 (PUP Z2),
Permissive Underreach Protection
Tripping via Forward Start
(PUP forward),
Permissive Overreach Protection with
Overreaching Zone 1
(POP Z1),
Permissive Scheme Unblocking logic
(Loss of Guard, Loss of Carrier)
Blocking Overreach Protection with
Overreaching zone 2 (BOP Z2),
Blocking Overreach Protection with
Overreaching zone 1 (BOP Z1),
Weak Infeed and Echo logic.
For double circuit lines, current
reversal guard logic is available to
prevent tripping of a healthy line.
In addition to the pre-programmed
schemes, the relays allow the creation
of customised channel-aided schemes.
Loss of load accelerated tripping
The loss of load logic provides fast
fault clearance for faults over the
whole of a double end fed protected
circuit for all types of fault, except
three phase. It does not require a
signalling channel but can be enabled
when the channel associated with an
aided scheme has failed. (Loss of load
schemes are applicable only where
three pole tripping is employed.)
Other Protection
Functions
Directional comparison scheme
The programmable scheme logic (PSL)
provides many scheme possibilities.
An example of this is to create a
directional comparison scheme
integral to the relay.

comparison
The PSL can be used to initiate an
external signal send when a forward
fault directional decision is made.
The relay at the other end can use this
signal receive with its own forward
fault decision to initiate a trip thus
creating a unit protection of the whole
line.
Phase overcurrent
Four independent stages are available
for the phase overcurrent protection.
Two stages (I>1 and I>2) may be
selected as non-directional or
directional (forward/reverse).
All stages have definite time (DT)
delayed characteristics, two of the
stages (I>1 and I>2) may also be
independently set to one of nine
inverse definite minimum time (IDMT)
curves (IEC and IEEE). The IDMT
stages have a programmable reset
timer for grading with
electromechanical relays and to
reduce clearance times where
intermittent faults occur.
The I>1 and I>2 stages are also
used for emergency overcurrent
protection in case of a VT
malfunction (MCB trip or fuse
failure).
The I>3 DT stage is used as part of
the SOTF/TOR elements and to
detect close-up faults.
The I>4 DT stage is used for Stub
Bus protection in 11/2 circuit breaker
feeding arrangements.
The phase fault elements direction is
provided by the distance algorithms.
Overcurrent elements operate correctly
for close-up three phase faults as they
use the superimposed Delta elements
for the directional decision.
5
Negative sequence
overcurrent
Negative sequence overcurrent
protection can be set as either
non-directional or directional
(forward/reverse), and can operate
for remote phase-phase and phase-
earth faults even with delta-star
transformers present.
Earth fault elements
Two functions of earth fault protection
are available. They operate from a
residual current that is derived
internally from the summation of the
three phase currents.
The directionality of the earth fault
elements is provided by either zero
sequence voltage or negative
sequence voltage.
Channel-Aided Directional Earth Fault
("Aided DEF")
Directional comparison protection
operates in conjunction with one or
two remote end relays. The Aided DEF
protection is able to trip single or
three-pole using permissive or blocking
scheme logic. The transmission
channels may be the same as those
used by the distance protection or may
be independent.
Stand-by Earth Fault ("SBEF")
There are two stand-by earth fault
elements. Both can be set directional
or non directional. Each can be set
either DT or IDMT time-delayed.
Stand-by earth fault elements always
trip three pole and have an optional
timer hold facility on reset. They may
be enabled at the same time providing
discriminative directional earth fault
protection and back-up standby earth
fault protection in the same device.
To maintain operation during periods
of VT malfunction, a back-up VTS fail
definite time function can be applied
to both elements. On VTS pick-up both
are forced to non-directional operation
and are subject to a revised DT time
delay, user set to mimic distance zone
time delays.
Under/overvoltage
Under/overvoltage protection may be
configured to operate from either
phase-phase or phase-neutral voltage
elements. Two independent stages with
definite time elements are available,
one of the stages can also be
configured to an inverse characteristic.
Broken conductor
The broken conductor protection
detects unbalanced conditions caused
by broken conductors, maloperation of
single phase switchgear or by single
phasing conditions.
Supervisory Functions
Circuit breaker failure protection
Circuit breaker failure protection may
be used for backtripping upstream
circuit breakers, and/or for retripping
via a second breaker trip coil when a
local breaker failure is detected.
The circuit breaker failure logic may
also be initiated externally from other
protection devices if required.
Voltage transformer supervision
(VTS)
Voltage transformer supervision is
provided to detect loss of one, two or
three VT signals, providing indication
and inhibition of voltage dependent
protection elements. An opto-input may
also be configured to initiate the
voltage transformer supervision alarm
and blocking when used with MCBs or
other external forms of voltage
transformer supervision.
The logic is as follows:
U0
I0
IMAX & 1 or 2 VT signals
failed
I2
U<
I
& 3 VT signals failed
Current transformer supervision
(CTS)
Current transformer supervision is
provided to detect loss of phase CT
signals and inhibit the operation of
current dependent protection elements.
This is achieved by detecting the
presence of residual current in the
absence of residual voltage.
Control
Circuit breaker control
Circuit breaker control is available
from the front panel user interface,
opto-inputs and remotely via the
substation communications.

Measurement and
Recording Facilities
The P440 series is capable of
measuring and storing the values of a
wide range of quantities. All events,
fault and disturbance records are time
tagged to a resolution of 1ms using an
internal real time clock. An IRIG-B port
is also provided in the P442 relay for
accurate time synchronisation.
A lithium battery provides a back-up
for the real time clock and all records
in the event of supply failure.
This battery is supervised and easily
replaced from the front of the relay.

Local and Remote
Communications
Two communication ports are
available; a rear port providing
remote communications and a front
port providing local communications.
Remote communications
The remote communications are based
on RS485 voltage levels. Any of the
protocols listed below can be chosen
at the time of ordering, for easy
system integration such as
MiCOM S10, PSCN, SPACE 2000
and other SCADA or integrated
protection control packages.
Courier/K-Bus
The Courier language is a protocol
which has been developed specifically
for the purpose of developing generic
PC programs that will, without
modification, communicate with any
device using the Courier language.
Modbus
Modbus is a master/slave protocol,
whereby the master must have
knowledge of the slave's databases
and addresses. The MiCOM P440
series is implemented in Modbus RTU
mode.
IEC 60870-5-103
The relay is compliant with the
transmission protocol defined by the
specification IEC 60870-5-103.
An optional fibre optic interface is
available for this protocol.
The standardised messages based on
the VDEW communication protocol are
supported.
Local communications
The front serial communications port
has been designed for use with
MiCOM S1 software, which fully
supports functions within the relay by
providing the ability to program the
settings off-line, configure the
programmable scheme logic, extract
and view event, disturbance and fault
