ADVANTAGES

  • BESTlogic provides the user with very high flexibility in configuring a protection and control system.
  • Substantial functionality in a small package, useful where space is very limited but high functionality is needed.
  • Programmable LCD display allows the relay to replace local indication and control functions, such as panel metering, alarm annunciation, and control switches.
  • Provides optional separate ground current input for those applications where this is required.
  • Three independent communication ports with protocol support allows integration with distributed control systems.
  • Includes frequency tracking and voltage restrained overcurrent for backup and cogeneration applications.

BE1- GPS100 FEATURES

PROTECTION

  •  Phase and Neutral Instantaneous Overcurrent elements with settable time delay:
  •  Phase, Neutral, and Negative Sequence Time Overcurrent elements:.
  •  Phase overcurrent element includes capability of voltage restraint or voltage control.
  •  Negative sequence overcurrent element (46) includes algorithm for timing based on generator K factors or may use standard TOC curves..
  •  All U.S. and IEC timing curves plus user programmable curve.
  •  Phase Undervoltage and Overvoltage elements.
  •  Auxiliary Undervoltage and Overvoltage elements.
  •  Negative Sequence Overvoltage element:
  •  Four Under/Overfrequency elements.
  •  Forward/Reverse Power.
  •  Loss of Excitation (offset sloped VAR flow algorithm).
  •  Breaker Failure protection function: BF
  •  4 general purpose logic timers: 62,162,262, 362
  •  Inadvertent energization protection
  •  100% stator ground fault protection using auxiliary voltage elements for ground overvoltage and 3rd harmonic ground undervoltage
  •  Sync check and/or dead bus close supervision
  •  Programmable Logic using BESTlogic
  •  Two protection settings group controllable via relay logic, 43 Aux switches, and hardwired inputs. Setting group selection may control tripping logic.
  •  Fuse loss detection (60FL) protects against false trip due to loss of voltage sensing.

CONTROL

  • Virtual breaker control switch-controllable from both HMI and com. Ports and four virtual selector switches-controllable from both HMI and com. ports, also communication port control of 101 and #43 switches allows for SCADA control of relay and breaker.

INSTRUMENTATION

  • Real time A, B, C phase current, voltage; frequency; and derived neutral and negatyve sequence current and voltage. Real Time 3 phase Watts, VARs, and Power Factor.

REPORTS

  • Current demands for phase, ground, and negatyve sequence currents, and forward and reverse Watts and VARs-magnitudes and time stamps are recorded for today’s peak, yesterday’s peak, and peak since reset.
  • kWh and kVARh, forward and reverse
  • Breaker operations counter and contact interruption duty. Breaker operate time also available.

FAULT RECORDING

  • 255 event sequence of events report with I/O and alarm sub-reports
  • Fault Reporting; 1 or 2 oscillography records per fault report
  • 16 fault summary reports; two most recent Fault Summary Records saved to non-volative memory
  • Total number of fault and oscillography records settable from 6 to 16
  • Total of 240 cycles oscillography memory @ 12 samples/cycle

COMMUNICATION PORTS

  • Three independent general purpose communication ports
  • Front RS-232 ASCII communications
  • Rear RS-232 ASCII communications
  • Rear RS-485 ASCII, Modbus*, DNP*3.0, and TNP protocols
  • IRIG-B time sync (unmodulated)

SELF TEST AND ALARM FUNCTIONS

  • Relay fail, major alarm, and minor alarm LEDs, and fail-safe alarm output contact (closed or open) also extensive internal diagnostics monitor all internal functions of the relay.
  • More than 20 additional alarm points - programmable for major or minor priority including:
  • User defined logic state alarms that may be associated with any user specified relay logic state or relay protective element status.
  • Phase current, and forward and reverse Watt and VAR demand alarm.
  • Neutral and negative sequence unbalance demand alarms.
  • Three breaker alarm points programmable for slow trip, interruption duty threshold, or operations counter.
  • Trip circuit voltage and continuity monitor.

PROGRAMMABLE I/O

  • Four programmable inputs.
  • Five programmable outputs and one dedicated programmable alarm output.
