PROTECTION
Machine Fault ProtectionThe dual slope percentage differentialelement (87G) is the primary protectionagainst machine faults.
Dual slope percentage differential
In addition to the differential element,the instantaneous overcurrent element(50) that is only active when the gener-ator is offline protects the machineagainst faults during startup. Sincethere is no need to differentiatebetween system and machine faultswhen the generator is offline, thiselement may have a setting which issignificantly more sensitive than thedifferential protection.
Stator Ground ProtectionIn addition to a ground overcurrentelement (51GN), the 489 has a VT inputto monitor the machine neutral volt-age. The 489 can detect grounddirectional (67) by comparing the anglebetween neutral voltage and groundcurrent to determine whether a groundfault is within the generator. 100%stator ground fault protection is provid-ed through an overvoltage element(59GN) that operates on fundamentalneutral voltage only and an adaptiveelement (27TN) that operates on thirdharmonic voltage ratio at the generatorterminals and the generator neutral.
Stator Thermal ProtectionMonitoring of stator RTDs provides ther-mal protection for the stator (49) duringrunning overload conditions. A votingfeature allows two RTDs to vote for highreliability. The 489 thermal model incor-porates an overload curve that may bebiased by the current unbalance and/orthe hottest stator RTD. Machine cooling issimulated using exponential decay of thethermal capacity used register. The ther-mal overload curve may also be used toprovide start-up protection for an induc-tion generator.
Bearing Protection Any of the 12 RTD inputs may beconfigured to monitor and protectagainst bearing overtemperatureconditions (38). A voting feature allowstwo RTDs to vote for high reliability.
The four programmable analog inputsmay be configured to monitor bearingvibration transducers. Alarm or tripfunctions may be configured for vibra-tion protection (39). On smallermachines, this type of simple vibrationprotection is very cost effective.
Excitation SystemProtection elements associated withthe operation of the excitation systeminclude overexcitation (24, V/Hz) under-voltage (27), and overvoltage (59).Definite time or inverse time curvesmay used to activate alarm or trip functions.
Loss of field protection may be accom-modated using loss of excitation (40)and reactive power (40Q).

489 Generator Management Relay™489 Generator Management Relay™
Sequential Tripping LogicDuring routine shutdown, and forsome of the less critical trips, it may bedesirable to use the sequential tripfunction to prevent overspeed. A digi-tal input may be used to monitor theturbine valve status. When the valve isclosed, either a low forward power orreverse power trip feature will trip thebreaker once the generator output hasfallen below the level programmed.
Abnormal Frequency (81)Alarm functions for both overfrequen-cy and underfrequency conditions areprovided. Operator action may betaken to correct the situation. Trippingfunctions are also provided if condi-tions persist or become more severe.
Operational FailuresOn a total or partial loss of the primemover if the power generated is lessthan the no-load losses of the machinereal power will start flowing into thegenerator. The reverse power function(32) may be used to trip the generatorwhen it begins motoring.
Inadvertent energization protection(50/27) may help to limit the damage thatcan occur if the generator is accidentallyplaced online while it is shutdown.
Overspeed (12)The speed is monitored by mountingan inductive proximity probe, or Halleffect sensor, near the shaft key orkeyway. The 489 provides 24 VDCpower for the sensor. The output of thesensor sends a pulse to an assignabledigital input which has been config-ured as a tachometer.
The 489 can monitor speed via an assignable input
Monitoring ProtectionIf breaker failure (50BF) is enabledwhen the 489 initiates a trip it willmonitor the breaker status input andthe generator current. If the breakerstatus contacts do not change state orgenerator current does not drop to zeroafter the programmed time delay, abreaker failure alarm will occur.
The trip coil supervision circuitry willmonitor the trip coil circuit for continu-
Rotor Thermal ProtectionRotor heating in generators due tonegative sequence current is a welldefined concept. Generators have veryspecific capability limits where unbal-anced current is concerned. Agenerator should have a rating for bothcontinuous and also short time opera-tion when negative sequence currentcomponents are present as defined bythe equation: K=I2t.
The 489 has a definite time alarm andinverse time overcurrent curve trip toprotect the generator rotor from over-heating due to the presence ofnegative sequence currents. A variablereset rate provides a thermal memoryof previous unbalance conditions.
Negative sequence inverse time overcurrent
System Backup ProtectionThree voltage restrained overcurrentelements (51V) provide backup protec-tion for system faults. The pickup levelfor the inverse time curves are adjust-ed in a fixed relationship with themeasured phase-phase voltage.
Voltage restraint characteristic
High-set phase overcurrent (50) alsoprovides backup protection to otherelements. If any individual phasecurrent exceeds the pickup level a tripwill occur. The element will operate inboth online and offline conditions.
Distance protection (21) implements twozone of mho phase to phase protection(total of six elements), which is intendedas backup for primary line protection.The elements, make use of the neutralend currents and the generator terminalvoltage to provide some protection forinternal and unit transformer faults.
ity any time that the breaker statusinput indicates that the breaker isclosed. If that continuity is broken, atrip coil monitor alarm will occur.
VT fuse failure (60FL) is detected whenthere are significant levels of negativesequence voltage without the corre-spondingly significant levels ofnegative sequence current. An alarmwill occur and features that use voltagemeasurements will be disabled.
MONITORINGAND METERING
MeteringThe 489 is provided with completemonitoring functions. These include:
current voltage power: kW kvar kVA energy use: MWh Mvarh power factor frequency 4 analog inputs
Demand and peak demand functionsinclude:
current power: kW kvar kVA
All measured quantities can be viewedon the front panel display, through thecommunications ports, or through oneof the 4 analog outputs.
Event RecordThe 489 captures and stores the last 40events, recording the time, date, andcause. All tripping functions are classedas events. Alarm functions may be selec-tively chosen as events. A snapshot ofmeasured parameters immediately priorto the event are stored with each event.All of the 489 event data may be readthrough any of the three communica-tions ports or viewed on the front paneldisplay.
When troubleshooting an event theevent record can be a valuable tool.The sequence of events can be an indi-cator of what really happened whilethe snapshot of measured data allowsfor complete diagnosis of the problem.
Waveform CaptureThe 489 samples the current and volt-age inputs at a rate of 12 times a cycle.These samples are stored in a config-urable buffer up to 64 cycles long. Thetrigger position setpoint allows the userto define how much of the buffer cyclesare pre and post trigger.

DGP Digital Generator ProtectionDGP Digital Generator Protection
PROTECTION AND CONTROL
Current UnbalanceThere are several causes of unbalancein the generator including unbalancedloads, unbalanced system faults, andopen circuits. The negative-sequencecomponent of the stator current (I2) isdirectly related to this unbalance andsets up a counter rotating flux field inthe machine. This causes local heatingin the rotor iron. The capability ofmachines to withstand this heating istypically expressed in terms of an I22tconstant, and this constant is used bythe DGP to provide operating timecharacteristics. A linear reset is used toapproximate machine cooling follow-ing an intermittent current unbalancecondition. The DGP also includes acurrent unbalance alarm with anadjustable pickup and time delay whichis operated by the negative sequencecomponent I2.
The DGP can protect the generator from heatingcaused by current unbalance
Stator DifferentialThis function provides high speedprotection of the generator duringinternal phase-to-phase faults andthree-phase faults. It uses a product-restraint algorithm with dual-slopecharacteristics. This function canprovide phase-to-ground protectionprovided the neutral of the machine isgrounded or another machine operat-ing in parallel is grounded.
Anti-motoringIf a total or partial loss of prime moverresults in the power generated beingless than no-load losses of themachine, real power will start flowinginto the generator. Actual motoringpower can be as low as 0.5% of gener-ator rating for steam turbines to 100%for gas and hydraulic turbines.
The DGP includes a one or two stepanti-motoring reverse power functionwith individual time delay adjustments.One of the reverse power steps can beused for sequential tripping of thegenerator, in which the turbine istripped first. This step is enabled whenclosing of turbine inlet valves is indi-cated by digital input. The tripsequence is then continued when itsdelay time elapses. The second step isprimarily intended to provide backup
to the sequential trip. If the sequentialtrip is not enabled the two devices canbe used as two step reverse powerfunctions with independent timers.
Ground OvercurrentThis inverse overcurrent function canbe used to detect stator ground faultsin a high or low resistance groundedgenerator system. Since this function isindependent of the phase currentinputs it can alternately be connectedto a CT in the neutral of the generatorstep-up transformer.
Time Overcurrent with VoltageRestraintA system must be protected againstprolonged generator contribution to afault on the system. A time-overcurrentfunction with voltage restraint is part ofthe DGP system, primarily to provide apart of the system backup protection.This function is controlled by a faultdetector and a Voltage TransformerFuse Failure (VTFF) condition. A sepa-rate algorithm is processed for eachphase, with the restraint provided bycorresponding phase voltage. Therestraint is proportional to the magni-tude of the voltage and is independentof phase angle. A linear reset charac-teristic is incorporated for this function.
Stator GroundThis function consists of two overlap-ping zones to detect stator groundfaults in a high impedance groundedgenerator system. Normally a genera-tor stator neutral has a potential closeto ground. With the occurrence of astator ground fault a potential increasewill occur on the neutral for all faultsexcept those near the neutral.
Zone 1 uses a fundamental frequencyneutral overvoltage to cover about 95%of the stator winding, depending onthe pickup voltage setting.
Zone 2 (64G2) is based on computationof third harmonic voltage at the gener-ator neutral, compared to the totalthird harmonic voltage generated. Thisfunction is designed to cover 15% ofthe neutral end of the stator windings,and is controlled by fundamental andthird harmonic voltage thresholds.Wye-wye connected VTs on the gener-ator terminals are required for properoperation of 64G2. 3rd harmonicneutral undervoltage function (27TN)can be used as the zone 2 if deltaconnected VTs are used. Together thetwo zones cover 100% of the statorwindings.

Alternately, zone 1 can be used as agenerator-bus ground detector in ahigh impedance grounded orungrounded system.
The DGP uses two overlapping zones to detectstator ground faults
Loss of ExcitationThis feature is used to detect the lossof excitation on synchronousmachines. When a synchronous gener-ator loses excitation it will tend to actas an induction generator. It will thenrun above normal speed, operate atreduced power, and receive its excita-tion (vars) from the system. Theimpedance detected by a relayconnected to a generator will dependon the machine characteristics, theload flow prior to the loss of excitation,and the type of excitation failure.
The loss of excitation function includestwo mho characteristics, each withadjustable reach, offset, and timedelay. The DGP will block this functionif it detects a negative sequence volt-age, which would indicate a voltagetransformer fuse failure (VTFF), or anexternal VTFF signal.
The first zone mho function can be setto detect severe cases of excitation fail-ure with a short time delay. The secondzone mho function can be set to detectall the excitation failure cases with alonger time delay setting. This permitssystem security during stable powersystem swing conditions.
Over-excitationTo detect the over-excitation conditionthe DGP uses the quantity Volts/Hertz,which is proportional to magnetic fluxin the generator and step-up trans-former cores.
The over-excitation protection includestrip and alarm functions. The trip func-tion consists of an inverse function andan instantaneous function with timedelay characteristics. Both trip andalarm functions are computed for eachof the three phase voltages. The tripfunction incorporates a user config-urable linear reset characteristic tomimic machine cooling.
Over and UndervoltageThe undervoltage function consists of apositive sequence undervoltage with auser selectable inverse or definite timecharacteristic. The overvoltage functionconsists of a positive sequence over-voltage with an inverse characteristic.A linear reset characteristic is incorpo-rated for both functions. Theovervoltage function can be consideredas a backup to the over-excitation. Theundervoltage function inherentlyprovides voltage phase reversal protec-tion.
Over and UnderfrequencyThis function provides up to four stepsof over and under frequency protec-tion, each with an adjustable timedelay. The over and under frequencysteps are controlled by an adjustablepositive sequence voltage level.
Voltage Transformer FuseFailure (VTFF)The loss of excitation function and thetime overcurrent with voltage restraintfunction may operate for a full orpartial loss of AC potential caused byone or more blown fuses. When a fusefailure is detected the DGP will blocktripping by these functions.
Accidental EnergizationThe DGP system uses internal logic todetect accidental energization of thegenerator. When a generator is ener-gized while at standstill or reducedspeed it will behave and accelerate asan induction motor and this can bevery damaging to the machine. Themachine terminal voltage and currentduring such an event will be a functionof generator, transformer, and systemimpedance.
Configurable Inputs/OutputsThe DGP includes two general purposecontact converter inputs. These inputsallow easy connection of external tripor alarm contacts to take advantage ofthe sequence of events log and config-urable outputs of the DGP. An optionalconfiguration is also available for anadditional input to disable all protec-tions by the input.
The DGP offers a total of eight config-urable output relays, four trip and fouralarm relays. These outputs allow theuser to select any desired combinationof the functions.
Control functions of the DGP can selec-tively operate any of the output relayseither locally or remotely. This requiresa password to minimize unauthorizedaction. The remote control can also bedisabled by a hardwire jumper.
The control functions of the DGP can operateoutput relays locally or remotely
Configurable LogicThe DGP allows strategic modificationof internal logic to favor either securityor dependability. This can be accom-plished either by software settings orautomatically by a "Generator Off-line"contact input. This feature allowsdisabling of selected functions whenthe generator is off-line and modifyingof the Accidental Energization logic.
Contact Expansion UnitThe DEC 1000 unit is an intelligentcontact expansion unit. When thisoptional accessory is connected to theDGP serial printer port it provides anadditional 11 output relays, 5 withcontacts in ‘C’ configuration, and 6with normally open contacts. ElevenLED indicators are provided to registerthe operation of all contacts. A resetbutton is provided to test and reset theindicators. Available for “CA” modelonly.

The DGP stores the last 100 events
Fault ReportsThe DGP stores up to the last threefault reports in its memory. A faultreport is generated by any protectivefunction trip or by an externally trig-gered input.
OscillographyThe DGP can capture and store 120cycles of oscillography data which canbe divided in to 1, 2, or 3 partitions.Prefault cycles captured can be set upto 20 cycles. In addition to 12 analogwaveforms (currents and voltages) theDGP captures internal logic flags andthe status of the contact inputs andoutputs. The DGP settings at the timeof the capture as well as the faultreport are also stored as part of thedata.
The DGP can store 120 cycles of oscillography
HARDWAREThe DGP system is packaged in a 8 RUhigh 19 inch rack mount case. Modelsare available with and without the testblocks. The drawout construction ofthe DGP case allows for all of the print-ed circuit boards, power supplies, andthe magnetic modules to be withdrawnfrom the front of the relay.
Self-Tests and DiagnosticsExtensive self-test routines areperformed by the DGP during power-up and continue to run in thebackground while the unit is in service.Any failure detected is categorized aseither a critical or non-critical alarm.Appropriate protective functions areautomatically disabled during a criticalalarm, helping to maintain the highsecurity of the DGP.
The DGP also has a RELAY TEST menuitem available via the front panelkeypad and display. This facilitatesinstallation by allowing testing of indi-vidual protective functions and outputrelays for effective trip testing of theprotection system.
Trip Circuit MonitorThe trip circuit monitor consists of thetrip voltage monitor (TVM) and the tripcurrent monitor (TCM) for up to fourtrip output contacts. The TVM detectsany discontinuity in the external tripcircuit and produces a non-criticalalarm. The TCM confirms energizing ofthe trip circuit when a trip is issued bythe DGP. To protect the output contactsthe TCM is also used to seal-in the tripoutput as long as the trip current is flowing.
MeteringThe DGP provides the following meter-ing values:
currents (Ia, Ib, Ic) voltages (Va, Vb, Vc, or Vab, Vbc, Vca) angles of I and V negative sequence current (%I2) third harmonic voltages (Ph./Neut.) watts (3 phase) vars (3 phase) frequency contact inputs (status)
The currents, voltages, watts, and varscan be metered as either primary orsecondary values and have an accuracyof 3%.
Sequence of Events RecordingThe last 100 events are time tagged tothe nearest millisecond and stored inthe DGP's memory. The event listincludes protective function opera-tions, self-test alarms, and operatoractions. The event data is available viathe RS232 ports as well as via theoptional printer port. The extensive listof events with accurate time stampingprovides the data for fast and effectiveanalysis of trip events to help minimizethe down time.
Keypad and DisplayA twenty button keypad and a 16 charac-ter LED display allow the user to easilyinterrogate the DGP and to changesettings. Metering data, trip event infor-mation, and settings can be displayed.To minimize unauthorized settingchanges or control action two distinctsecurity passwords are required.
A keypad and display are provided for local userinterface
LED IndicatorsOver eighteen LEDs are provided onthe front of the DGP for easy andimmediate indication of the fault typeand faulted phases.
A two color LED (red and green) is alsoprovided to indicate the relay status.
CommunicationTwo RS232 serial ports are provided onthe DGP, one on the front and one on therear. The port on the front allows easylocal user interface via a laptop computer.The rear port can be used to interfacewith a remote computer via a modem.There are three levels of security pass-word provided for remotecommunications. For added security hardwire jumpers can disable setting changesand control actions from a computer.
For remote link communications, DGPoffers choices of **GE-Modem or*ModBus® protocol. Each protocol issupplied with a copy of GE-LINK remotecommunication software. In addition tothe GE-LINK, a copy of the DGP-DATAsoftware is also supplied with the relayfor oscillography data analysis. It can beused to plot and analyze data filesretrieved from the DGP.
* Modbus® available with “CA” model only.Requires an optional RS485 to RS232converter.
** New Windows version of GE-LINK forModbus® protocol.
Time SynchronizationAn IRIG-B input is available whichpermits the relay to synchronize itsclock to the satellite time clock. Thisinsures that all event time stamping isconsistent across the entire system.

TYPICAL WIRING
Instantaneous Mode (adjustable timedelay): 0.5-8 x Is in steps of 0.1 x Is withtime delay of 0.05 to 10 sec in 0.05 secsteps.
Inverse Time Mode: Per the family ofcurves in Fig. 3, truncated for selec-table pick up settings between 0.1-1.0 xIs in steps of 0.1 x Is.
Zero Sequence Unit (I0) Adjustable between 0.06 and 0.24 xInGRN in steps of 0.01 x InGRN (InGRN = 5, 1 or 0.02 A).
Time Delay: 0.05 - 10 sec, adjustable insteps of 0.05 sec.
CONTACTCHARACTERISTICSMGC relays have two trip contacts, oneis normally open, and the other, electri-cally separate, is normally closed. Therelays incorporate two pre alarmtemperature contacts, electrically sepa-rate and with the same characteristicsas the trip contacts. They also include anormally closed contact for equipmentalarm.
Trip Contacts Closing: 3000 W resistive for 0.2 secwith a max of 30 A and 300 VDC.
Opening: 50 W resistive, with a max of2 A and 300 VDC.
Continuous: 5 A.
Alarm Contacts Closing: 5 A DC for 30 sec, at 250 VDCmaximum. Opening: 25 W inductiveand 250 VDC max.
Continuous: 3 A.
SETTINGSWith the exception of the current tap Is,the rest of the settings can be madethrough three push buttons located onthe front of the relay: ENTER; +; -; theselected setting value can be seen onthe display. A feature common to allthe units is the possibility for the userto disable them.
