Construction
Connection techniques and housing with

many advantages
1/2 and 1/1-rack sizes
These are the available housing widths of
the SIPROTEC 4 7SA522 relays, referred to
a 19" module frame system. This means
that previous models can always be re-
placed. The height is a uniform 255 mm
for flush-mounting housings and 266 mm
for surface-mounting housings for all
housing widths. All cables can be con-
nected with or without ring lugs. Plug-in
terminals are available as an option.
LSP2310-afpen.tif
It is thus possible to employ prefabricated
cable harnesses. In the case of surface
mounting on a panel, the connection ter-
minals are located above and below in the
form of screw-type terminals. The com-
munication interfaces are located in a
sloped case at the top and bottom of the 6
housing. Fig. 6/46

Distance protection (ANSI 21, 21N)

The main function of the 7SA522 is a
full-scheme distance protection. By parallel
calculation and monitoring of all six im-
pedance loops, a high degree of sensitivity
and selectivity is achieved for all types of
faults. The shortest tripping time is less
than one cycle. Single-pole and three-pole
tripping is possible. The distance protec-
tion is suitable for cables and overhead
lines with or without series capacitor com-
pensation.
Mho and quadrilateral characteristics
The 7SA522 relay provides quadrilateral as
well as mho zone characteristics. Both Fig. 6/49

ground (earth) faults can, for instance, be

Five independent distance zones and one

distance zone has dedicated time stages,

multi-phase faults. Ground (earth) faults
are detected by monitoring the neutral
current 3I0 and the zero-sequence voltage
3V0.

Elimination of interference signals

Digital filters render the unit immune to
interference signals contained in the mea-
sured values. In particular, the influence of
DC components, capacitive voltage trans-
formers and frequency changes is consider-
ably reduced. A special measuring method
is employed in order to assure protection

Communication
For operation via copper wire communica-

tion (pilot wires), a modern communica-
tion converter for copper cables is
available. This operates with both the
two-wire and three-wire copper connec-
tions which were used by conventional
differential protection systems before. The
communication converter for copper ca-
bles is designed for 5 kV insulation voltage.
An additional 20 kV isolation transformer
can extend the field of applications of this
technique into ranges with higher insula-
tion voltage requirements. With
SIPROTEC 4 and the communication con-
verter for copper cables a digital follow-up
technique is available for two-wire protec-
tion systems (typical 15 km) and all
three-wire protection systems using exist-
ing copper communication links. Further-
more, a communication converter is
available, which enables the link to an 6
ISDN connection via the S0 bus.
Communication data:
• Supported network interfaces G703.1 with
64 kbit/s; X21/RS422 with 64 or 128 or
512 kbit/s
• Max. channel delay time 0.1 ms to 30 ms
(in steps of 0.1 ms)
• Protocol HDLC
• 32-bit CRC-check according to CCITT
and ITU
• Each protection relay possesses a unique
relay address
• Continuous communication link supervi-
sion: Individual faulty data telegrams do
not constitute an immediate danger, if
they occur only sporadically. The statisti-
cal availability, per minute and hour, of
the serial protection data interface can be
displayed.
Figure 6/61 shows four applications for
the serial protection data interface on a
two-terminal line.

Three-terminal lines can also be protected

with a tele (pilot) protection scheme by us-
ing SIPROTEC 4 distance protection re-
lays. The communication topology may
then be a ring or a chain topology, see Fig.
6/62. In a ring topology a loss of one data
connection is tolerated by the system. The
topology is re-routed in a chain with less
than 100 ms. To reduce communication
links and to save money for communica-
tions, a chain topology may be generally
applied.
