THE UNIVERSAL RELAV
Introduction
Historically substations were designed with protection. control and metering
functions performed by electromechanical equipment. This first generation of
equipment was in time replaced in various degrees by analog electronic equipment.
most of which emulated the single function approach required in the
electromechanical precursors. Both of these technologies require a lot of expensive
cabling and auxiliary equipment to produce functioning systems.
Recently digital electronic equipment has been applied to the purposes outlined
above. Initially this equipment was either single function or had very limited multi-
function capability, and did not significantly reduce the amount of cabling and
auxiliary equipment required. Recent digital relays have become quite multi-
functional, reducing cabling and auxiliaries even more. These devices also transfer
data to central control facilities and Human Machine Interfaces, using electronic
communications. The functions performed by these products have become so broad
that many users now prefer the term lED (Intelligent Electronic Devicel.
It is obvious to station designers that the amount of cabling and auxiliary equipment
installed in stations can be even further reduced. to 20% to 70% of the levels
common in 1990, to achieve large cost reductions. This requires placing even more
functions in the IEDs.
Users of power equipment are also interested in reducing cost by improving power
quality and personnel productivity, and as always, in increasing system reliability and
efficiency. These objectives are realized through software which is used to perform
functions at both the station and supervisory levels. The use of these systems is
growing rapidly.
Digital Energy

High speed communications are required to meet the data transfer rates required
by the automatic control and monitoring systems of today. In the near future, very
high speed communications will be required to perform protection signaling - a
performance target response time for a command signal between two IEDs from
transmission to reception of less than 5 milliseconds has been established by the
Electric Power Research Institute, a collective body of many American and Canadian
power utilities. in their Utilities Communications Architecture 2 (MMS/UCA2) project.
In late 1998 some European utilities began to show an interest in this ongoing
initiative.
IEDs with the capabilities outlined will also provide a lot more data on the power
system than is presently available. enhancing operations and maintenance, and
permitting the use of adaptive system configuration for protection and control
systems. This new generation of equipment must also be easily incorporated into
automation systems at both the station and enterprise levels. The Universal Relay
(UR) has been developed to meet these goals.

The UR Family.
The Universal Relay is a family of protection relays that is based on a common platform for
all of your protection needs.
This picture shows a family of different UR devices.
These devices provide common hardware packaging, faceplate panels. function modules.
and firmware programs.
Each different UR device is distinguished by user-defined faceplate LED panels, specialized
function modules, and device-specific firmware programs.
This family of devices is supported by a common graphical user interface, known as the UR
Setup software interface.

The UR Relay Block Diagram:
The UR operates by measuring the status of many different Inputs, making logical
calculations based on those inputs. then settings outputs to perform real world
functions.
Input elements accept a variety of analog or digital signals from the field. isolate
and convert the signals into logic signals which can be used by the relay.
The CPU module contains firmware which provides protection elements in the form
of logic algorithms. and programmable logic gates for control features.
Output elements convert and isolate the logic signals generated by the relay. into
digital or analog signals that can be used to control field devices.

are located outside of the relay. Both 'wet' and 'dry inputs are supported. The Virtual
Inputs are software controlled switches that are turned ON and OFF through
communication commands and can be used to control the UR from remote locations. The
Analog Inputs are input signals that are associated with transducers such as Resistive
Temperature Detectors IRTDs) and DCmA inputs that vary through a predetermined range
10-lmA, 0-20 mA, .. .1. CT and VT inputs refer to analog current transformer and voltage
(potentiaII transformer signals used to monitor AC power lines.
The Remote Inputs and Direct Inputs are used for peer-to-peer communications
between different Universal Relays that are connected to a central network.
OUTPUTS: The Contact Outputs are physical hardware switches that change state
and are used for controlling and signaling outside devices such as breakers. The Virtual
Outputs are used to store the result of Flexlogic equations that are used to customize the
functionality of the Relay.
The Analog Outputs are output signals that are associated with transducers current

UR Module Insertion
Procedure for installing a module:
Step 1: Turn of the power being supplied to the relay.
Step 2: Lift the sliding latch on the right side of the faceplate and
pull the door towards you to gain access to the modules.
Step 3: Align the green PCB boards on the module with the slot
guide in the chassis.
Step 4: With your thumb. press on the middle of the module until
the ejector/inserter clip begin to close on their own.
Step 5: Using two hands press both clips towards the module at the
same time until you feel the module "POP" into place. NOTE
that DSP modules will require large amounts of force to
insert them properly.
There are white key codes found on the module and in the
chassis on the terminal block that prevent the module
from being inserted into the wrong slot.

Circuit Monitor
The Voltage Monitoring feature of the Form-A Contact Output is used to monitor
the integrity of the Breaker Trip Coil circuit. The Voltage Monitor checks to see if the
circuit used to energize the trip coil has a valid path for the current to flow. This is
performed by forcing a small amount of current (3mA) through the circuit and
checks to see if it is received back to that point.

If it is required to monitor the trip circuit continuously, independent of the breaker
position (open or closed), a method to maintain the monitoring current flow
through the trip circuit when the breaker is open can be achieved by connecting a
suitable resistor across the auxiliary contact in the trip circuit (52a). The suitable
resistor value to use can be found in the chart below.

Detectors (RTDs) or milli-Amp current inputs and converts them into digital signals that
can be used by the CPU.
DCMA are current levels that are used a communication link between devices such as
relays and PLC's. The current level being sent from one device to another relates to
different analog values such a current or voltage levels. The current input ranges
available are (mAde): 0 to -1, 0 to +1, -1 to +1, 0 to 5.0 to 10.0 to 20.4 to 20.
RTDs are used to represent the temperature of various parts of a motor or a
generator. The varying resistive value input into the relay relates to the temperature
that is being read.
The RTD input types available are 1000hm nickel. 100hm copper, 1000hm platinum
and 120 ohm nickel and is selectable by the user.

The Power supply is always located in Slot B. therefore all terminal assignments
begin with the letter B.
The negative voltage input for the power supply is always located in terminal B6a.
There are separate voltage wiring inputs for the positive input of the high volt and
low volt power supplies. The positive input is connected to terminal BSb for the
high volt power supply. and terminal B6b for the low volt power supply.
The Filter Ground and Serge Ground connections are made at terminals B8b and
B8a respectively.
The Power Supply module has a 48 Volt output that can be used for 'wetting' Contact

Voltage Wiring:
Each phase of voltage has it's own row on the terminal block for input wiring. Phase
Auses row 5, Phase Buses row 6. and phase Cuses row 7. Row 8 is reserved for the
auxiliary input that is normally used for Synchrocheck.
The negative terminal of each phase is connected to column Cfor that row. The
positive lor polarity) terminal is connected to column Afor that row. Column Bis not
used for voltage.
The wiring of VT's for both ABC rotation and ACB rotation are identical.
Current Wiring:
Each phase of current has it's own row on the terminal block for input wiring. On the
example above, Phase Auses row 1, Phase Buses row 2, and phase Cuses row 3
and Ground current uses row 4.
The negativeterminallnon-polarityl of each phase is connected to column Bfor that
row. The connection of the positive lpolarityl terminal depends on whether the CT
being used has a lAmp or 5Amp secondary. If a lAmp secondary is used, the
connection should be made to column Cof that row. If a 5Amp secondary is used,
the connection should be made to column Aof that row.

The Oscillography Record is the waveform capture ability available in the UR. The
UR does not automatically record a waveform in the event of a trip and the size
and resolution of these records are not constant. These functions must first be
configured by the user.
There is a finite amount of memory space allocated for the recording of
Oscillography files. Howthis space is to be allocated is defined by the user in the
three methods described below.
The memory space available can left as one long record using the entire memory
space available, or can be split up into up to 64 different smaller records.
The sample rate at which the Oscillography records the record can be set between
8 and 64 samples per cycles. The more samples per cycle required, the smaller
the record will be.
The number of different Analog and Digital channels being recorded affects the
length of Oscillography record. The more channels being recorded, the smaller
each record will be.
Below is a graph showing the length of some records with various Oscillography
settings.

Flexlogit
Flexlogic is the tool within the UR that allows for customization ofthe protection and
control within the relay.
Flexlogic is based on Boolean Algebra that allows customization through a series of
equations.
Flexlogic Equations consist of Operands. Operators and Outputs.
The Operands (or inputs to the equationsl have a logic state of 1 or 0 and can be any
UR inputs, outputs. or the result of any protection element.
The Operators perform logical comparisons of the operators that are assigned as
inputs to the operator. Examples of these functions are AND gates, Timers, and
Latches.
The Output (or resultl of each Flexlogic equation is stored in Virtual Output. There
are 64 Virtual Outputs available allowing 64 different Flexlogic Equations. The
Virtual Outputs can then be assigned to drive many different functions within the
UR (such as changing the state of a Contact Output.
Each Flexlogic equation is evaluated every 2 milliseconds, regardless of the
number of Flexlogic equations programmed into the relay

The Type columns contains a listing of all of the different types of Operands and
Operators that are available in Flexlogic. Examples of these are Contact Inputs and
AND gates.
The Syntax column allows you to select the details required for the element that was
selected in the Type column
Each line in the Flexlogic Equation Editor that contains a Type and Syntax element
constitutes one line of code. Each line of code in the editor is executed sequentially
from the top to the bottom, therefore each equation that you program will be

In order to explain the process of programming Flexlogic equations as easily as
possible. we will not use any operators in programming out first equation. We will
simply assign the status of an Operator (In this case a Contact Input) to the Virtual
Output.
In order program this equation into our Flexlogic Editor, we need to follow the first
rule of programming Flexlogic Equations:
Rule #1
ASSIGNING THE OUTPUT OF AN OPERAND OR OPERATOR TO AVIRTUAL OUTPUT
TERMINATES THE EQUATION.
Therefore. we will have only two lines of code in our Flexlogic Equation Editor. The
first one will be listing the Operand (Contact Inputl! and the second line will be
assigning this Operand to a Virtual Output.

In order to Utilize the available logic gates in our Flexlogic Programs. we need to
follow the second and third rule for programming Flexlogic equations:

AS INPUTS.
Rule #3
OPERATORS (GATES) HAVE ONLY ONE OUTPUT. THE OUTPUT OF AN OPERATOR
(GATE) CAN BE USED AS AN INPUT TO ANOTHER OPERATOR (GATE) OR CAN BE
USED TO DRIVE AVIRTUAL OUTPUT.
For a Flexlogic Equation where we will have two contact Inputs being the
inputs for an OR logic gate, the two contact inputs must be listed in the first
two line of the equation to adhere with Rule #2.
The OR gate will be listed in the third line of the equation.
Assigning the output of the OR gate to the Virtual Output will be the last line of

Second: Configure Flexlogic Equation
We now need to change our two Flexlogic control equations so that either Contact
Input 1 or Virtual Input will Close the breaker, and either Contact Input 2 or Virtual
Input 2 will Trip the breaker.
Open the Flexlogic Equation Editor window.
Insert a new line above row number 2 and enter Virtual Input lin the Type and
Syntax fields. Insert a new line above row number 3 and enter a 2 input OR gate.
Repeat this process for equation number 2.
You now have 2 ways of controlling a breaker. Locally as if turning ON a switch
located in a substation, and Remotely by sending a command from an Operator
located at another location.
Finally: Configure Oscillography to record operation
If we now want to record the tripping of a breaker in the Oscillography record, you
must configure the UR to perform this function.
Since the Trigger Source only has one input. and we want any element that causes
the breaker to trip to cause the UR to record an Oscillography file, we must create
another Flexlogic equation that triggers the Oscillography.

Sources
Metering
The primary function of a protection relay is to measure the magnitude of the
currents and voltages and open a breaker when those currents and voltages
indicate that a situation that is harmful to the power system is occurring.
All current and Voltage inputs are connected to the DSP modules is the UR
platform. The UR allows up to three DSP's to installed in one relay allowing for
up to 6 circuits to be protected with one relay.
Each group of currents and voltages that the UR uses for metering and
protection calculations are known as Sources.
The UR relay must be programmed to know which currents and voltages to use
in each source before the UR will meter any values.
-----_...._------------_.-
Digital Energy
Multilin
Each group of currents or voltages wired to the relay are given a name that
references where the inputs are wired to in the UR.
The name each group is given refers to the location of the DSP module that the
inputs are wired to and the row on the terminal block where Phase A is
connected.
For example, in the diagram below, one power system circuit is connected to the
first bank of inputs on the DSP located in slot F. Phase Afor that circuit is
connected to row 1. Therefore, this group of current inputs from the power
system circuit is given the name: F1
The second circuit is wired to the second bank of inputs on the DSP located in slot
F. Phase Afor that bank is located in row 5, therefore the name of that group of
current inputs is: F5

CT/VT Ratios
The CT and VT ratio's are used to scale the input current and Voltage levels to
be displayed in metering and protection calculations.
To configure the CT ratio's:
1. Open the CT Ratio settings window found under:
Settings> System Setup> AC Inputs> Current
This window will display one column for each of the banks of the current
inputs that are available in the hardware of your UR.
2. In the Phase CT Primary field, enter the Primary ratio of the CT being used on
the power system
3. In the Phase CT Secondary. select either 1 Amp or 5 Amps from the pull-
down menu to match the secondary of the CT's being used.
4. In the Ground CT Primary field. enter the Primary ratio of the Ground CT
being used on the power system
5. In the Ground CT Secondary, select either 1 Amp or 5 Amps from the pull-
down menu to match the secondary of the Ground CT's being used.

Multilin
Protection:
Per Unit (PU)
The settings for some current and voltage protection elements are in Per Unit
calculated quantities. The per unit value for each part of the power system being
protected is based on the CT or VT ratio's being used.
For current elements, 1 per units is equal to the base quantity of the CT ratio.
For example: if the CT ratio is 300/5, one per unit would be 300 Amps Primary or 5
Amps Secondary
For Voltage Elements, 1 per unit is the nominal primary or secondary voltage of
the VT
For example: if the nominal phase VT secondary voltage is is 66 Volts and the VT
ratio is 1000/1, one per unit would be 66 kV primary or 66 Volts secondary

Grouped Elements
In the Universal Relay there are 6 Settings Groups for protection elements. These
are known as Grouped Elements. All settings group has the exact same protection
elements. The protection elements in each group can have different settings such as
pickup level and overload curve.

Protection Elements
All protection elements must be configured in each particular setting group that you
want them to be active in.
Most protection elements have 4 different settings that must be set to protect the
power system device properly.
1. Function: Each protection element must have the Function field set to
Enabled before the element will begin protecting.
2. The Source of current or voltage the protection element will be using in it's
calculations must be selected.
3. The Pickup quantity for that element. This level is often configured in per unit
quantities
4. The Block function needs to be set if the protection element ever needs to be
blocked from operating. The block being active will have the same result as if
the protection element was disabled.

For each protection element in the UR, there are 3 operands available for use in
Flexlogic Equations.
1. The Pickup IPKP) operand changes from the OFF to the ON state whenever the
protection element identifies that the input variable (voltage. current etc.) is
greater that the pickup value.
2. The Dropout DPO operand changes from the OFF to the ON state whenever
the protection element identifies that the input variable is less than the pickup
value. This is the direct inverse of the pickup variable.
3. The Operate operand changes from the OFF to the ON state whenever the
protection element has been picked up after any time delays have elapsed.

want to begin recording the waveform as soon as the current rises above the pickup
level before any timing delays.
Change the number of inputs to the OR gate in line 15 to 4 to match the number of
inputs assigned to it.
Next we need to configure what information the UR needs to record.
Open the Oscillography settings window.
In the Digital Channel section, add Phase TOC1 PKP, Phase TOC DPO and Phase TOC OP
