voltage and frequency relay
Description
The SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 is a nu-
merical, multifunction relay for connec-
tion to voltage transformers. It can be used
in distribution systems, on transformers
and for electrical machines. If the
SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 detects any
deviation from the permitted voltage, fre-
quency or overexcitation values, it will re-
spond according to the values set. The
relay can also be applied for the purposes
of system decoupling and for load shed-
ding if ever there is a risk of a system
collapse as a result of inadmissibly large
frequency drops. An integrated load resto-
ration function allows the re-establishment
of the power system after recovery of the
system frequency.
The 7RW80 features “flexible protection
functions”. 20 additional protection func-
tions can be created by the user. For exam-
ple, a rate-of-frequency change or a rate-
of-voltage change function can be created.
The relay provides circuit-breaker control,
additional primary switching devices
(grounding switches, transfer switches and
isolating switches) can also be controlled
from the relay. Automation or PLC logic
functionality is also implemented in the
relay. The integrated programmable logic
(CFC) allows the user to add own func-
tions, e.g. for the automation of switch-
gear (including: interlocking, transfer and
load shedding schemes). The user is also
allowed to generate user-defined messages.
Siemens SIP
The communication module is independ-
ent from the protection. It can easily be
exchanged or upgraded to future commu-
nication protocols.
Highlights
Removable terminals provide the ideal so-
lution for fast and secure replacement of
relays. Binary input thresholds are software
settings. There is thus no need to ever open
the relay to adapt the hardware configura-
tion to a specific application.
The relay provides 9 programmable func-
tion keys that can be used to replace push-
buttons, select switches and control switches.
The battery for event and fault recording
memory can be exchanged from the front
of the relay.
The relay is available with IEC 61850 for
incredible cost savings in applications (e.g.
transfer schemes with synch-check, bus
interlocking and load shedding schemes).
This compact relay provides protection,
control, metering and PLC logic functional-
ity. Secure and easy to use one page matrix
IO programming is now a standard feature.
The housing creates a sealed dust proof
environment for the relay internal elec-
tronics. Heat build up is dissipated through
the surface area of the steel enclosure. No
dusty or corrosive air can be circulated
over the electronic components. The relay
thus will maintain its tested insulation
characteristic standards as per IEC, IEEE,
even if deployed in harsh environment.

Application
Fig. 2 Function diagram
The SIPROTEC Compact 7RW80 unit is a
numerical protection relay that can per-
form control and monitoring functions
and therefore provide the user with a cost-
effective platform for power system man-
agement, that ensures reliable supply of
electrical power to the customers. The er-
gonomic design makes control easy from
the relay front panel. A large, easy-to-read
display was a key design factor.
Control
The integrated control function permits
control of disconnect devices, grounding
switches or circuit-breakers through the
integrated operator panel, binary inputs,
DIGSI 4 or the control or SCADA/automa-
tion system (e.g. SICAM, SIMATIC or other
vendors automation system). A full range of
command processing functions is provided.

Programmable logic
The integrated logic characteristics (CFC)
allow the user to add own functions for
automation of switchgear (e.g. interlock-
ing) or switching sequence. The user can
also generate user-defined messages. This
functionality can form the base to create
extremely flexible transfer schemes.
Line protection
For the enhancement of the feeder protec-
tion the 7RW80 provides several stages for
voltage and frequency protection.
Generator and transformer protection
Through implemented voltage, frequency
and overexcitation protection the 7RW80
can be used for generators and transform-
ers in case of defective voltage or frequency
control, full load rejection or operation in
islanding generation systems.
System decoupling and load shedding
For system decoupling and load shedding
the 7RW80 provides voltage, frequency,
rate-of-frequency-change and rate-of-
voltage-change protection.
Load restoration
For power system recovery frequency pro-
tection and load restoration are available in
7RW80.

Metering values
Extensive measured values (e.g. V), and
limit values (e.g. for voltage, frequency)
provide improved system management.
Reporting
The storage of event logs, trip logs, fault
records and statistics documents are stored
in the relay to provide the user or operator
with all the key data required to operate
modern substations.
Switchgear cubicles for
high/medium voltage
All units are designed specifically to meet
the requirements of high/medium-voltage
applications.
In general, no separate measuring instru-
ments (e.g., for voltage, frequency, …) or
additional control components are neces-
sary.
Typically the relay provides all required
measurements, thus negating the use of
additional metering devices like volt or
frequency meters. No additional control
switches are required either. The relay pro-
vides 9 function keys that can be config-
ured to replace pushbuttons and select
switches.

Construction and hardware
Connection techniques and
housing with many advantages
The relay housing is 1/6 of a 19" rack.
The housing is thus identical in size to the
7RW600 relays that makes replacement
very easy. The height is 244 mm (9.61").
Pluggable terminals allow for pre-wiring
and simplify the exchange of devices.
All binary inputs are independent and the
pick-up thresholds are settable using soft-
ware settings (3 stages). Up to 9 function
keys can be programmed for predefined
menu entries, switching sequences, etc.
The assigned function of the function keys
can be shown in the display of the relay.
Protection functions
Undervoltage protection (ANSI 27)
The two-element undervoltage protection
provides protection against dangerous
voltage drops (especially for electric ma-
chines). Applications include the isolation
of generators or motors from the network
to avoid undesired operating conditions
and a possible loss of stability. Proper op-
erating conditions of electrical machines
are best evaluated with the positive-
sequence quantities. The protection func-
tion is active over a wide frequency range
of 25 to 70 Hz.
The function can operate either with
phase-to-phase, phase-to-ground or posi-
tive phase-sequence voltage. Three-phase
and single-phase connections are possible.
In addition a user definable curve with up
to 20 value pairs is available.
Overvoltage protection (ANSI 59)
The two-element overvoltage protection
detects unwanted network and machine
overvoltage conditions. The function can
operate either with phase-to-phase,
phase-to-ground, positive phase-sequence
or negative phase-sequence voltage.
Three-phase and single-phase connections
are possible.
In addition, a user definable curve with up
to 20 value pairs is available.

Protection functions (cont'd)

Overexcitation protection (ANSI 24)

The overexcitation protection serves for
detection of an unpermissible high induc-
tion (proportional to V/f) in generators or
transformers, which leads to thermal over-
loading. This may occur when starting up,
shutting down under full load, with weak
systems or under isolated operation. The
inverse characteristic can be set via eight
points derived from the manufacturer
data. dV/dt

Customized functions

Flexible protection functions
The 7RW80 enables the user to easily add
up to 20 additional protective functions.
Parameter definitions are used to link
standard protection logic with any chosen
characteristic quantity (measured or calcu-
lated quantity) (Fig. 4). The standard logic
consists of the usual protection elements
such as the pickup set point, the set delay
time, the TRIP command, a block func-
tion, etc. The mode of operation for
voltage quantities can be three-phase or
single-phase. Almost all quantities can be
operated with ascending or descending
pickup stages (e.g. under and overvoltage).
All stages operate with protection priority.
For example, the following can be imple-
mented:
• Rate-of-frequency-change protection
(ANSI 81R)
• Rate-of-voltage-change protection
Synch-check (ANSI 25)
When closing a circuit-breaker, the units
can check whether two separate networks
are synchronized. Voltage, frequency and
phase-angle-differences are checked to de-
termine whether synchronous conditions
exist.
Lockout (ANSI 86)
All binary output statuses can be memo-
rized. The LED reset key is used to reset
the lockout state. The lockout state is also
stored in the event of supply voltage fail-
ure. Reclosure can only occur after the
lockout state is reset.
Additional functions, which are not time
critical, can be implemented using the CFC
measured values.
Control and automatic functions
Control
In addition to the protection functions,
the SIPROTEC 4 and SIPROTEC Compact
units also support all control and monitor-
ing functions that are required for operat-
ing medium-voltage or high-voltage
substations.
The main application is reliable control of
switching and other processes.
The status of primary equipment or auxil-
iary devices can be obtained from auxiliary
contacts and communicated to the 7RW80
via binary inputs. Therefore it is possible
to detect and indicate both the OPEN and
CLOSED position or a fault or intermedi-
ate circuit-breaker or auxiliary contact po-
sition.
The switchgear or circuit-breaker can be
controlled via:
– integrated operator panel
– binary inputs
– substation control and protection system
– DIGSI 4.

Siemens SIP February 2011 5

 11 Generator Protection / 7RW80
Control and automatic functions (cont'd)
Automation / user-defined logic
With integrated logic, the user can create,
through a graphic interface (CFC), specific
functions for the automation of switchgear
or a substation. Functions are activated us-
ing function keys, a binary input or
through the communication interface.
Switching authority
Switching authority is determined by set
parameters or through communications to
the relay. If a source is set to “LOCAL”,
only local switching operations are possi-
ble. The following sequence for switching
authority is available: “LOCAL”; DIGSI
PC program, “REMOTE”.
There is thus no need to have a separate
Local/Remote switch wired to the breaker
coils and relay. The local/remote selection
can be done using a function key on the
front of the relay.
Command processing
This relay is designed to be easily integrated
into a SCADA or control system. Security
features are standard and all the function-
ality of command processing is offered.
This includes the processing of single and
double commands with or without feed-
back, sophisticated monitoring of the con-
trol hardware and software, checking of
the external process, control actions using
functions such as runtime monitoring and
automatic command termination after
output. Here are some typical applications:
• Single and double commands using 1,
1 plus 1 common or 2 trip contacts
• User-definable bay interlocks
• Operating sequences combining several
switching operations such as control of
circuit-breakers, disconnectors and
grounding switches
• Triggering of switching operations,
indications or alarm by combination with
existing information.
6 February 2011
Assignment of feedback to command
The positions of the circuit-breaker or
switching devices and transformer taps are
acquired through feedback. These indica-
tion inputs are logically assigned to the
corresponding command outputs. The
unit can therefore distinguish whether the
indication change is a result of switching
operation or whether it is an undesired
spontaneous change of state.
Chatter disable
The chatter disable feature evaluates
whether, in a set period of time, the num-
ber of status changes of indication input
exceeds a specified number. If exceeded,
the indication input is blocked for a certain
period, so that the event list will not record
excessive operations.
Indication filtering and delay
Binary indications can be filtered or de-
layed.
Filtering serves to suppress brief changes in
potential at the indication input. The indi-
cation is passed on only if the indication
voltage is still present after a set period of
time. In the event of an indication delay,
there is a delay for a preset time. The infor-
mation is passed on only if the indication
voltage is still present after this time.
Indication derivation
User-definable indications can be derived
from individual or a group of indications.
These grouped indications are of great
value to the user that need to minimize the
number of indications sent to the system
or SCADA interface.
Further functions
Measured values
The r.m.s. values are calculated from the
acquired voltages along with the frequency.
The following functions are available for
measured value processing:
• Voltages VL1, VL2, VL3, VL1L2, VL2L3, VL3L1
• Symmetrical components
V1, V2, V0
• Frequency
• Mean as well as minimum and maximum
voltage values
• Operating hours counter
• Limit value monitoring
Limit values can be monitored using pro-
grammable logic in the CFC. Commands
can be derived from this limit value indi-
cation.
• Zero suppression
In a certain range of very low measured
values, the value is set to zero to suppress
interference.
Commissioning
Commissioning could not be easier and
is supported by DIGSI 4. The status of
the binary inputs can be read individually
and the state of the binary outputs can be
set individually. The operation of switch-
ing elements (circuit-breakers, disconnect
devices) can be checked using the switch-
ing functions of the relay. The analog
measured values are represented as wide-
ranging operational measured values. To
prevent transmission of information to
the control center during maintenance,
the communications can be disabled to
prevent unnecessary data from being trans-
mitted. During commissioning, all indica-
tions with test tag for test purposes can be
connected to a control and protection
system.
Test operation
During commissioning, all indications can
be passed to a control system for test pur-
poses.
Siemens SIP

Communication
The relay offers flexibility with reference to
its communication to substation automa-
tion systems and industrial SCADA or
DCS systems. The communication module
firmware can be changed to communicate
using another protocol or the modules can
be changed completely for a different con-
nection or protocol. It will thus be possible
to move to future communication proto-
cols like popular Ethernet-based protocols
with ease.
USB interface
There is an USB interface on the front of
the relay. All the relay functions can be
set using a PC and DIGSI 4 protection
operation program. Commissioning tools
and fault analysis are built into the DIGSI
program and are used through this inter-
face.
Interfaces
A number of communication modules
suitable for various applications can be
fitted at the bottom of the housing. The
modules can be easily replaced by the user.
The interface modules support the follow-
ing applications:
• System/service interface
Communication with a central control
system takes place through this interface.
Radial or ring type station bus topologies
can be configured depending on the cho-
sen interface. Furthermore, the units can
exchange data through this interface via
Ethernet and the IEC 61850 protocol and
can also be accessed using DIGSI.
• Ethernet interface
The Ethernet interface was implemented
for access to a number of protection units
using DIGSI.
