STATIC DIFFERENTIAL RELAY FOR BUS PROTECTION

TYPE SBD11B

DESCRI PTION

The type SBD11B is a single phase, high speed, high impedance static differential
relay. It was specifically designed to provide bus differential protection, but it
may also be used for differential protection of shunt reactors.

The SBDI1I3 relay is provided with a target seal-in unit and comes mounted in a
standard 52 size drawout case. Outline and panel drilling dimensions for the relay
are shown in Figure 22. The internal connections for the relay are shown in Figure
13.

Three SBDI1B relays plus one multi-contact lockout relay of the HEA type comprise a
complete terminal of multi-phase and ground fault protection.

APPLI CATION
The type SBD11B is a static high speed, high impedance, single phase relay that was
specifically designed to provide differential protection for high and low voltage AC
buses. However, because of its design and sensitivity, this relay may also be used
for shunt reactor differential protection. While the normal bus scheme requires
three SBD1IB relays one per phase
-
the number of relays required for the
-

protection of shunt reactors depends on the scheme employed. The different schemes
are discussed below.

Regardless of the scheme employed or the equipment to be protected, the following

coriinerits apply to the application of the SBD11B relay.

1. All of the CTs employed in the differential circuit should have negligible
leakage reactance on the taps used. Most, if not all, modern multi—ratio
hushing and column type CTs meet this requirement. All CTs wound on toroidally
shaped cores meet this requirement if the windings (on the taps used) are
completely distributed around the core. If the CTs to be employed do not meet
this requirement, it may still be possible to apply the SBD11B relay provided
the leakage reactance is known. In that case, the leakage reactance is added
algebraically to the resistance of the fault CT circuit.

2. All of the CTs employed must be set on the same tap ratio. While a mixture of
multi—ratio CTs nay he used, it is essential that the taps used result in all
of the CTs having the same ratio. Where CTs with taps set on other than the
full winding are employed, it will be necessary to determine that the peak

voltage developed across the full winding due to auto transformer action does
not exceed the insulation breakdown values for the connected equipment. This
requires a very simple calculation using the equation derived in the section
under OPERATING PRINCIPLES and repeated in the section under CALCULATION OF
SETTINGS. Aside from this simple calculation, NO SPECIAL CALCULATIONS OR
EQUIPMENT ARE REQUIRED WHEN MIXED RATIO CTs ARE USED.

3. En general, maximum sensitivity will be attained when the CTs are set on the
highest available tap. Therefore, where all of the CTs are of the same ratio,
the full winding should be utilized. Where all of the CTs are not of the same
ratio, use the highest available tap setting that will permit all of the CTs to
be set on the same ratio.

4. In general, dedicated CT5 should be used with the SBD11B relays. However, it
is possible to insert other devices in the CT circuits as long as their
impedances are accurately known and added algebraically to the CT winding and
cable resistance. Such applications will require higher pickup settings, and
as a consequence will provide less sensitive protection. This should be
evaluated before a decision is made to add other devices in the SBD11B
circuits.

5. In order to ensure a proper relay setting, all cable and CT secondary winding
resistances should be evaluated before a decision is made to add other devices
in the SD11B CT circuits.

6. If any of the CTs are protected by primary and/or secondary voltage-limiting

devices such as vacuum gaps, additional considerations are necessary to ensure
a reliable application. Some means must be incorporated to prevent this
protective equipment from shorting the SBD11B. Such applications may be
referred to the local General Electric Sales Office.

7. When the CT circuits of the bus differential zone are unbalanced, such as when
circuit breakers are to be bypassed for maintenance purposes, it is recommended
that studs 5 and 6 on each of the SBD11B relays in the circuit be shorted
together and that the trip circuits be opened. This may be accomplished by the
use of a differential cut-out switch or by removing the relay test plugs. It
should be done prior to unbalancing the CT circuits in order to avoid any
misope ration.

8. In general, it is desirable to minimize the fault CT loop resistance in order

to minimize the voltage tap setting and so obtain maximum sensitivity. To this
extent, the location of the differential junction point may be important. It
is permissible to locate the junction point at the relay panel if the resultant
setting for that location gives the desired sensitivity. If greater
sensitivity is desired, it may be possible to obtain it by locating the
junction point out in the switchyard. It may be desirable to do this in EHV
outdoor installations where the distance between the breakers and the relay
panel may be large.

 GEK-45451

9. The SBD11I3 relay is presently available in two models, differing only in the
basic current sensitivities. One model has a sensitivity of 0.5/1.0 rms
amperes, while the sensitivity of the other is 0.5/2.5 rms amperes. The relay
having a sensitivity of 0.5/1.0 amperes should be used in those applications in
which lightning arresters are not connected to the bus. For those applications
in which lightning arresters will be connected to the bus, the relay having a
sensitivity of 0.5/2.5 amperes should be used. The higher current setting (2.5
amperes) should be used if the arresters are already present; otherwise use the
lower setting (0.5 amperes) until the arresters are connected.

10. A contact of the auxiliary lock-out relay, device 86, should be connected
across studs 3 and 6 of the SBD11B relay to short out a portion of the input
circuit after a trip output has been initiated. This will allow the relay to
operate as a straight overcurrent function following device 86 operation and at
the same time protect against exceeding the short-time rating of the SCRs. The
relay may be used in any application where the total secondary current is not
more than the current waveform of a fully offset fault, with 215 amperes rms
syninetrical available, provided the auxiliary lockout relay has an operating
time in the order of 16 milliseconds. The SBD relay acts as a straight
overcurrent device once the lockout relay has operated, and may be used as part
of a breaker failure backup scheme.

BUS PROTECTION

Three SB[)11B relays applied on a per-phase basis, plus an auxiliary lockout relay,
provide a complete terminal of bus protection for both multi-phase and single—line-
to-ground faults. Typical external connections to the relays are shown in Figures 1
and 2. The connections are illustrated for a bus with three circuits, but the
protection can easily be extended if more circuits are added to the bus. For
additional circuits, it is only necessary to connect the CTs associated with the
added circuits to the respective junction points and to connect contacts of the
lockout relay in the respective trip circuits. The relay voltage tap setting is
based on determining the maximum voltage that can be developed across the
differential junction point during an external fault. Calculation of the maximum
voltage is easily made and methods for doing so are given in the section
under
CALCULATION OF SETTINGS. A sample calculation for a bus differential scheme is also
given in that section.

SHUNT REACTOR PROTECTION

Differential protection of shunt reactors may be provided by using only one SBD11B
relay, or three SBD11B relays may be used in the application if desired. Typical AC
external connection diagrams for these schemes are shown in Figures 3 and 4.
The DC
connections will be similar to those shown in Figure 2. Where only one relay is
applied, protection will be provided for ground faults only. The scheme utilizing
three SBD11B relays will provide protection for both multi-phase and line—o-ground
faults. Calculations of the voltage tap setting are made using the same basic
equation as used in any scheme employing the SBD11B relay. The procedures to follow
in calculating the voltage tap setting for either scheme are provided in the section
under CALCULATION OF SETTINGS.

OPERATING PRINCIPLES

The SBD11B differential relay is a high impedance device that operates from the
instantaneous value of the CT secondary voltage to which the relay is connected.
The diagram of Figure 1 illustrates typical external AC connections to the relay for
use in a bus differential scheme. It can be noted from this diagram that a
conventional differential connection is utilized; i.e. the CTs associated with all
of the circuits off the bus are connected in wye and paralleled at one location on a
per-phase basis. One SBD11B relay per phase is required to provide complete
protection for the bus. The relay will operate to trip when the instantaneous
voltage applied across studs 5 and 6 exceeds its voltage pickup setting and the
fault current is greater than the basic sensitivity setting.

While the CTs need not be of the same ratio, it is required that they all be set on
the same tap. Under these conditions, the voltage developed across the relay during
normal system conditions will be very small. If the CTs all performed ideally and
did not saturate, the same would be true for faults external to the zone of
protection. However, CTs are not ideal and they do saturate.

If the protection scheme is to perform satisfactorily, then, it must not trip

improperly for faults external to the zone of protection. For example, in Figure 5,
which shows the connections for one phase only, the SBD11B must not operate for the
external fault at Fl. For this fault, the highest voltage that could possibly be
developed at the relay would occur when the associated CT (CT3) saturated
completely, and the others (CII and CT2) did not saturate at all. When a CT with a
completely distributed toroidal winding (on the tap used) saturates completely, it
produces no voltage and its impedance, as viewed from the secondary winding, is very
nearly equal to the winding resistance. Thus, the highest peak voltage that can be
developed across the SBD11B during an external fault will be equal to the voltage
produced by the total secondary fault current flowing through the control cable
resistance plus the winding resistance of the CT associated with the faulted feeder.
In the case of the example of Figure 5, this is:

Vpeak (2) (J)(IF)(RS + 2RL) (1)

where: ‘F = RMS symmetrical value of fault current in the fault CT in

secondary amperes

RS = CT Secondary winding resistance plus any lead resistance

(at highest expected operating temperature)

RL = Cable resistance from junction point to CT (at highest

expected operating temperature)

Equation (1) above yields the peak voltage developed at the relay for a completely
offset wave of current having an rms syninetrical value of IF secondary amperes.
Because the SBD11B relay is calibrated in symmetrical rms volts, equation (2) below,
which yields the rms value of the above voltage, is used in the section on
CALCULATION OF SETTINGS.

VR = F CR
1 5 + 2RL) (2)

 GEK—45451

CAUTION
If DC supply is re.oved, studs 5—6 should be shorted by pulling the
connection plug. If this is not done1 and If there is no backup
protection, the SBD relay could be damaged due to continuous fault current
flow through the SCRs of the SB!) relay.

The pickup of the SBD11B must be set above the value of this rms voltage and above
the rms value of the other voltages obtained in a similar manner on all the other
circuits off the bus. Because the peak voltage is proportional to the fault
current, the highest possible value of expected fault current in rms synmietrical
amperes should be used in making the evaluation.

During internal faults on the bus, all of the CTs will be operating into the
relatively high Impedance of the SBD11B. Under these conditions, the maximum
average voltage that can be produced will be limited to values as dictated by the CT
secondary excitation characteristics. Examination of a typical CT secondary
excitation characteristic will show that the average voltage levels off beyond the
knee of the curve. However, the peak voltages that can be produced are not
Indicated on the standard excitation curve. The peak voltages will always be
greater than indicated by the average, and will continue to increase in magnitude as
the excitation is increased. Because these peak voltages will be much greater than
the peak voltages experienced during external faults, and because the SBD relay
operates as a function of the instantaneous voltage, the relay can be set to be
selective between internal and external faults. An indication of the peak voltages
that a CT can produce can easily be determined by a simple modification to the CT
secondary excitation characteristic. The modification is shown by the lines CPB in
Figure 7, which now define the excitation characteristics as a function of the peak
voltages. Studies have shown that the peak voltages produced will be at least equal
to or greater than those established by the modified characteristics. These
characteristics are useful in determining the minimum internal fault for which the
SBD11R relay will operate. The method for making the modifications, and their uses
in determining the sensitivity, are given in the section under CALCULATION OF
SETTINGS.

Figure 6 illustrates in simplified form the internal connections of the SBD1IB

relay. When an internal fault occurs, the peak voltage developed in the secondaries
of the feeder CTs will appear across a resistor divider network in the relay via
studs 5 and 6. A portion of this total voltage, depending on the tap selected in
the resistor divider network, will appear across resistor R3, and hence across
capacitor C and the silicon bilateral switch (SBS). Note that the SBS device
exhibits high impedance in the “OFF” state and it will turn “ON” and conduct when
its switching voltage is reached.
When the peak voltage developed across R3 exceeds the switching voltage of the SBS,
it will conduct and allow capacitor C to discharge through the primary of the pulse
transformer, T20. A pulse will be induced in the secondaries of T20, and depending
on the polarity of the first half cycle of the applied voltage, SCR2O or SCR21 will
be triggered to the “ON” condition. During subsequent half cycles, the SCRs will be

7
 GEK—45451

triggered alternately until the associated lockout relay operates. When the SCRs
fire, the CT circuits will be shorted and the total secondary fault current will
flow through the SCR circuits and hence through the primary of current transformer
Ti. If the total secondary fault current, and hence the primary current of Ti, Is
above the pickup level of the relay, an output will be provided via the output
relay, A.

For convenience, the SBIJ11B relay voltage tap settings are calibrated In terms of
rms synmietrical volts and all calculations for settings are made in terms of rms
synnetrical quantities. The relay responds to the instantaneous value of applied
voltage, and this maximum instantaneous value can be 2v’2 or 2.83 times VT, the tap
setting of the relay. As soon as the SBD operates, the shorting action of the SCR
path reduces this voltage to a very low level. Thus the maximum peak voltage that
can be produced in the differential circuit will be limited to the value as
calculated In equation (3) below.

VR = (2) (v”2) (VT) = (2.83)(VT) (3)

Where: yR = maximum instantaneous voltage that can be developed In the

differential circuit

VT = SBD11B voltage tap setting in rms symmetrical volts

(2)(v’2) = conversion of rms symmetrical volts to corresponding peak

volts of a fully offset voltage wave.

Where CTs with taps set on other than the full winding are involved, the voltage
developed across the full winding of these CTs can be greater than the differential
circuit voltage as a result of autotransformer action. For example, consider the
simple circuit of Figure 8. The voltage in the differential circuit, and
consequently across CT1 and CT2, will be limited to VR. But the voltage across the
full winding of CT3 will be greater by the ratio of the total number of turns of the
CT to the actual turns used.

= = (2.83)(VT)(Ni) (4)
N2 N2
where: VF = voltage across the full winding

Ni = total number of CT secondary turns

N2 = number of CT secondary turns used, i.e. tap setting

The voltage across the full winding (VF) should not exceed the insulation breakdown
of the connected equipment. The value of the actual peak voltage that can be
produced for any relay tap setting and mixed multi—ratio CT combination may be
evaluated using equation (4) above.

VOLTAGE RANGE

The standard voltage range is 50 to 350 volts rms, 50/60 Hz. The taps are 50, 100,
150, 200, 250, 300 and 350.

VOLTAGE RATING

It is the nature of the application of this relay that voltage is not applied
continuously. For calibration and test purposes (see ELECTRICAL TESTS in the
ACCEPTANCE TESTS section) it may be of value to apply input voltage for times longer
than the few milliseconds of voltage the relay would experience during an Internal
or external power system fault. For test and calibration purposes, the relay has
been designed to withstand 75% of tap setting continuously. For voltages above
this, see Figure 15.

FREQUENCY

The relay can be used on 50 or 60 Hz systems. It can be applied at frequencies down

to 25 Hz if the AC current ratings are reduced by 10%.

AMB I ENT TEMPERATURE

The relay Is designed for operation in ambient air temperature from _200C to +550C.

DC SUPPLY

The relay Is designed for operation on any of three DC voltages: 48, 125, or 250
volts. The voltage selecting link must be set to the correct voltage. Consult a
General Electric Sales representative for any other DC voltage ranges.

AC CURRENT

The rms pickup current of the SBD relay can be set for either of two values and is
selectable by a link at the front of the relay. There are two models available,
with current sensitivity settings of 0.5/1.0 and 0.5/2.5 rms amperes.
Rating - Continuous - 10 amperes rms
1 second — 160 amperes rms syninetrical
5 cycles — 480 amperes rms symetrical
2 cycles — 215 amperes rms fully offset
Note: The current circuits can withstand 10 amperes continuously. However, the
output telephone relay should not be energized for longer than 2 minutes.

HIGH POTENTIAL TESTING (INSULATION TESTING)

The relay will withstand 1500 volts for one minute applied between all studs tied
together and the frame.

Note that all external connections to the surge ground stud (stud 4) must be
removed before hipotting, to avoid damage to the surge protection capacitors.

OUTPUT CONTACTS

CHARACTERISTI CS

Operation of the SBD relay is initiated as a function of the instantaneous voltage

developed across terminals 5 and 6 of the relay, but an output will not be produced
unless the total secondary fault current that flows through the relay after the SCRs
fire is greater than the pickup current setting; i.e. both voltage and current are
required to produce an output. The voltage and current requirements needed to
produce an output are determined by the voltage tap setting and the pickup current
Setting.

VOLTAGE TAP SETTING

The relay is provided with seven discrete taps in 50-volt steps over the range of
50-330 volts rms syirinetrical The SCRs will fire whenever the instantaneous value
.

10
 GEK-45451

of the applied voltage is equal to twice the peak value 4% of an rms symmetrical
voltage equal to the voltage tap setting; i.e.,

VR = (2) (2) VT (3)

where: VR = instantaneous voltage needed to fire SCRs

VT = voltage tap setting

Note that this voltage VR is also equal to the peak voltage of a completely offset
voltage wave having an rms syninetrical value equal to the voltage tap setting. In
other words, the SCRs will fire whenever an rms symmetrical vol tage greater than
twice tap setting is applied, or whenever the corresponding peak voltage is exceeded
on an instantaneous basis by an applied waveshape. When the SCRs fire, the relay
will produce an output, provided the total secondary fault current that flows in the
relay is greater than the pickup current setting.

PICKUP CURRENT

Pickup current is defined as the rms value of a symmetrical sinusoidal current that
must flow in the primary of Ti (see internal connections, Figure 13) in order to
provide a contact output. Two models of SBD relays are available with current
pickup settings of 0.5/1.0 and 0.5/2.5 i 10% rms amperes.

OPERATING TIMES

Typical operating times are shown in Figure 18. The dropout time is 15 milliseconds
or less.

EFFECT OF TEMPERATURE

Voltage Tap Setting may vary an additional 2% over the operating temperature range.
Pickup Current may vary an additional 20% over the operating temperature range.

BURDENS

DC BURDEN

The relay draws no power from the DC supply unless the output relay is picked up.

multiplier P must be set equal to two. On the other hand, the CT secondary
currents during balanced three—phase faults result in 0 current in the return

to one.

3. If the single phase-to—ground fault current at a given location is greater than

or equal to the three-phase fault current, the calculations need only he made
for single phase-to-ground faults.

4. The resistance of the CTs and connecting cables will increase with increasing
temperature; therefore, if adequate margin is to be maintained at all times,
equation (6) should be evaluated using resistance values corresponding to the
maximum expected operating temperature.

The methods to be used in calculating the voltage tap setting using equation (6)
will to some extent be dependent on the type of application. The following comments
are made with respect to the different areas in which the SBD11B relay may be
applied.

1. Bus Protection — Two methods will be outlined for evaluating equation (6) in
order to determine an appropriate relay voltage tap setting.

The first method offers a simplified conservative approach to the problem and
requires that equation (6) be evaluated only once. With this method, it is
assumed that a single phase-to-ground fault with a current magnitude equal to
the maximum interrupting rating of the breaker occurs on the feeder associated
with the CT having the longest cable run from the differential junction point.
Under these assumptions, the effect of the fault current, iF is maximized, and
so is the effect of cable resistance, because the highest value of resistance
is used and P is set equal to 2. Thus, the highest possible value of VT will
be obtained.

The second method offers an exact approach but requires that equation (6) be
evaluated a number of times in order to obtain the maximum VT. With this
method, calculations must be made for the rnaximuni single phase-to-ground fault
and the maximum three-phase fault just off each of the n feeders on the bus.
Therefore, equation (6) must be evaluated 2n times, using the associated value
of cable resistance and P 1 or P = 2, as required.

In general, Method II will produce a lower voltage tap setting than Method I,
but Method I is simpler to utilize. The user should begin with Method I. If
the voltage tap setting resulting from the use of this method results in
adequate sensitivity, a unique advantage is realized since the setting does not
require recalculation following future changes in the power system
configuration that result in higher fault current magnitudes. If the
sensitivity resulting from the use of Method I does not prove adequate, then
Method II should be used.

Each of the methods are outlined below:

Method I (Simplified Conservative Approach):

a. Use the maximum interrupting rating of the circuit breaker as the maximum
external single phase-to-ground symmetrical fault current (IF).

13
 GEK-45451

b. RL is based on the distance from the differential junction point to the

most distant CT.

c. Calculate VT substituting the values of current and resistance from a and

b and set p 2.

d. Select the highest available voltage tap (VT) that just accommodates the
voltage calculated iii c above.

Method II (Exact Approach):

a. Determine the maximum three-phase and single phase-to-ground fault

currents for faults just off each of the n breakers on the bus.

b. RL is the one-way DC resistance of the cable from the associated CT to the

differential junction point.

c. For each breaker in turn, calculate VT separately, utilizing the

associated maximum external three—phase synTnetrical fault current in the
fault CT, with P = 1 and the maximum external single phase-to-ground
symmetrical fault current in the fault CT, with P = 2.

d. Use the highest of the 2n values of VT so obtained, and select the next
higher available tap setting that acconinodates this value.

2. Shunt Reactor Protection -Depending on the type of protection required, shunt

reactors may be protected by the SBD11B relay in one of two ways. See Figures
3 and 4. Since the shunt reactors contribute no current to an external fault,
equation (6) should be evaluated using the highest magnitude of current that
can possibly flow in the reactor under any system condition, exclusive of a
fault in the reactor. If the differential junction point is located near the
reactors, the resistance of the CT connecting cables can probably be ignored,
and equation (6) need only be evaluated using the CT resistance and the maximum
expected current. If the cable resistance cannot be ignored, use the maximum
expected reactor current and P = 2. After a value of VT has been calculated,
select the next higher available voltage tap that just accommodates this
voltage.

APPLICATIONS WiTH MiXED MULTI-RATIO CT’S

Where CTs are to be used on other than their full windings, the application should
be evaluated after a voltage tap has been selected, to determine that excessive
voltages are not developed across the full windings of these CTs as a result of
autotransfornier action. It is desirable to limit the peak value of the voltage to
less than the insulation breakdown of the connected equipment. It has been shown in
the section under OPERATING PRINCIPLES that the peak voltage across the full winding
can be calculated as follows:

VF (2.83)(VT)(N1) (4)
N2

where: VT = SBD11B relay voltage tap setting

N] = Number of turns in full CT winding

14
 GEK-45451

N2 =
Number of turns in CT tap used

2.83 = 2fi (peak value of fully offset wave)

Peak voltage across full winding

See Figure 8 for an illustration of the above terms. If VF is less than the
insulation breakdown, and if the current rating of the CT is not exceeded, the
application is permissible. Equation (4) should be evaluated for the CT having the
highest N1/N2 ratio. If the condition of equation (4) is met for this CT, then it
will also be met for the remaining CTs.

MINIMUM FAULT TO TRIP

After the voltage tap setting has been established for an application, a check
should be made to determine the minimum internal fault current that will just cause
the relay to operate. The following expression can be used to determine the minimum
internal fault current required for a particular tap setting:

‘mm. n (7)
(
)
1 x +
x=1

Where: = Minimum rms symmetrical internal fault current required to

operate the SBD11B relay

n = Number of CTs (number of circuits)

Secondary e,citation current of individual CT at a voltage

equal to 2/2 x VT

= Current in the SBD11B at pickup setting

CT ratio on tap used

The excitation currents (1)1, (1)2 (i) will be a function of the peak voltages
that can be produced in the secondaries of the respective CTs. It is possible to
determine the currents with the aid of the secondary excitation characteristic
for
the respective CT, but it is first necessary to modify the characteristics so that
they are plotted as a function of the peak voltages that can be produced.
The
modifications are easily made; the procedure for doing so is as follows:

1. Determine the knee point coordinates of the standard excitation curve (E5 and
le). These points will be indicated on the given characteristic, or they can
be found graphically by determining the point where a 45° line
is tangent to
the knee of the excitation curve.

2. Calculate and plot the following point on the same sheet with the excitation
curve.

V = (7)(E) (8)
i = (S)(Ie)

15
 GEK-45451

3. Draw a line having a slope of 1/2 through the point (V,I) calculated and
plotted in 2. above. A slope of 1/2 corresponds to one log cycle on the
vertical axis (voltage) and two log cycles on the horizontal axis (current).
See line A-B in Figure 1.

4. Extend the lower part of the excitation curve in a straight line until it
intersects the line A-B drawn in 3. above. See line C-D in Figure 7.

The curve (CPB) so formed by these two lines now represents the modified excitation
characteristics as a function of the peak voltages that can be produced. After the
curve has been drawn, calculate the following corresponding excitation current 1.

VS = 2(12)(VT) (9)

Where VS = Voltage coordinate for determining I

VT = Voltage tap setting on SBD relay

Note that the first term in equation (7) reduces to nI if all the CTs have the same
characteristiCs.

The second term in equation (7) represents the current (IR) drawn by the relay just
at the operating point. It can be calculated as follows:
(2)(VT) (10)

SAMPLE CALCULATION

The various steps for determining the setting of the SBD11B relay in a typical bus
application will be demonstrated with the aid of a worked example. Assume the
protected zone includes five breakers, all rated at 69kv, 15Oiiva, 1200 amperes,
with a maximum interrupting rating of 12,500 amperes. The excitation curve for the
1200/5 bushing CTs in these breakers is shown in Figure 7.

The 0.5 ampere sensitivity setting will be used. The voltage tap setting will be
determined by using Method I as described in the preceding section. The value of RS
from Figure 7 is (O.0019)(240)-m-2(O.0341) = 0.524 ohms. It is assumed that this
resistance corresponds to the maximum expected operating temperature. It is further
assumed that the longest CT cable run is 442 feet and that number 10 copper wire is
used. The one-way cable resistance at 250C is 0.450 ohms. The resistance value of
wire at 25°C or at any temperature Ti may be corrected to any temperature T2 by
means of the following equation.

RT2 = [1 = P1 (T2-T1)]Rii
Where: RT2 Resistance in ohms at T2, °C

RT1 = Resistance in ohms at Ti, O

= Temperature coefficient of resistance at Ti

16
 GEK—45451

For standard annealed copper, P1 0.00385 at Ti = 25°C. If the maximum expected

operating temperature is assumed to be 50°C, then

RL = [1 + 0.00385(50-25)10.450
= (1.096)(0.450) = 0.493 ohms
Substituting the various quantities in equation (6) yields:

VT = 1.25 [0.524 + 2(0.493)]’g°

= 98.31 volts
Since VT 98.31 volts is not exactly equal to one of the available taps, select the
next higher available tap, which is 100 volts.

VT 100 volts
Since the CTs are all used on the full winding, there is no need to check that
excessive voltages will be produced in the CT circuits.

Now that a tap has been selected, the sensitivity may be calcula
ted following the
procedure outlined in the section under MINIMUM FAULT TO TRIP.

From Figure 7, the knee point coordinates,

ES and ‘e are 290 volts and 0.06 ampere.
From equation (8):

V (7)(E) = (7)(290) = 203 volts

I (5)(I) = (5)(0.06) = 0.30 ampere
Plot this point (V,I) on the graph of Figure 7 and draw the lines i\—B
and C—D. This
gives the modified secondary excitation characteristics. Calcul
using equation (9): ate the voltage VS

VS = (2)(v’)VT = 283 volts

From the modified curve, the current ‘e corresponding to VS
ampere. = 283 volts is 0.05

The relay current from equation (10) is:

= (2100)
= 0.08 ampere

The sensitivity of the relay, or the minimum fault to trip from equation (7) is:
‘mm. = [(5)(0.05) + 0.081(240)
= 80 amperes
With the relay set at 0.5 ampere, 120 amperes of primary current are require
produce 0.5 ampere secondary from the 1200/S CTs. d to
Since the calculated value is
less than 120 amperes, the sensitivity will be 120 amperes. If a higher minimum
basic current sensitivity is used on the relay, the minimum curren
pickup will be correspondingly higher. t required for

CONSTRUCTION

The Type SBD relays are assembled in the small size double—ended (S2) drawout case
with studs at both ends in the rear of the case for external connections. The
electrical connections between the relay and the case studs are through stationary
molded inner and outer blocks, between which nests a removable connecting plug. The
outer blocks have the terminals for the internal connections.

Every circuit in the drawout case has an auxiliary brush, as shown in Figure 9, to
provide adequate overlap when the connecting plug is withdrawn or inserted. Some
circuits are equipped with shorting bars (see internal connections in Figure 13),
nd on those circuits it is especially important that the auxiliary brush make
contact as indicated in Figure 9 with adequate pressure to prevent the opening of
the important interlocking circuits.

The relay mechanism is mounted in a steel framework called the cradle, and is a
complete unit with all leads terminated at the inner blocks. This cradle is held
firmly in the case with a latch at both top and bottom and by a guide pin at the
back of the case. The connecting plug, besides making the electrical connections
between the respective blocks of the cradle and case, also locks the latch in place.
The cover, which is drawn to the case by thumbscrews, holds the connecting plugs in
place. The target reset mechanism is a part of the cover assembly.

The relay case is suitable for either seriiiflush or surface mounting on all panels up
to two inches thick, and appropriate hardware is available. However, panel
thickness must be indicated on the relay order to ensure that proper hardware will
be included. Outline and panel drilling are shown in Figure 22.

A separate testing plug can be inserted in place of the connecting plug to test the
relay in place on the panel, either from its own source of current and voltage, or
from other sources. Or the relay can be drawn out and replaced by another which has
been tested in the laboratory.

RECEIVING, HANDLING AND STORAGE

These relays, when not included as part of a control panel, will be shipped in
cartons designed to protect them against damage. immediately upon receipt of a
relay, examine it for any damage sustained in transit. If injury or damage
resulting from rough handling is evident, file a damage claim at once with the
transportation company and promptly notify the nearest General Electric Sales
Office.

Reasonable care should be exercised in unpacking the relay in order that none of the
parts are injured or the adjustments disturbed.

If the relays are not to he lnstdlled immediately, they should be stored in their
original cartons in a place that is free from moisture, dust and metallic chips.
Foreign matter collected on the outside of the case may find its way inside when the
cover is removed, and cause trouble in the operation of the relay.

ACCEPTANCE TESTS

VISUAL INSPECTION

When the relay is received, check the nameplate stamping to ensure that the model
number and rating of the relay received agree with the requisition.

Remove the relay from its case arid check that there are no broken or cracked molded
parts or other signs of physical damage, and that all screws are tight.

MECHANICAL INSPECTION

Case and Cradle Blocks

Check that the fingers on the cradle and the case agree with the internal connection
diagram. Each cradle finger should be flush or project above the between—finger
barriers. Check that there is a coil spring under each finger. The case fingers,
if not held down by a shorting bar, should come within 1/16 inch of touching a
straight-edge bridging the case block from side to side. If the finger is held down
by a shorting bar, opening the electrical circuit between the finger and the
shorting bar should require at least one pound (450 grms.) of force. See Figure 9.
Check that each auxiliary brush extends above the between—ñnger barrier.

Telephone Relay Unit (RT)

Operate the telephone relay unit manually by pushing on the armature. Check that
the movement is free of binding or roughness. Check that the normally—closed
stationary contacts follow the moving contacts before they open. The normaHy—
closed contact at the top of the stack should open last. All contacts, when in the
open position, should have 0.015 inch or more gap. The nonnally—open contacts
should have at least 0.005 inch travel after closing. This can be checked by
putting a 0.005 inch shim between the armature and the pole piece, closing the
armature by hand, and checking that each normally-open contact still closes. As the
normally—closed contacts cannot be tested using a shim, they may be checked by
measuring the force applied to the stationary contact which is required to open the
contact. This should be at least 10 grams.

Target Seal-in Unit

Pick up the armature by hand. The orange target should appear. When the armature
is released, the target should remain in view. Push in on the reset arm. The
target should drop from view.

Hold the armature up by hand. The target should not be at the end of its travel.
Verify this by reaching in one of the windows of the target with a sharp instrument
such as a scribe or knife and pushing upward. The target should move definitely
upward (at least 1/64 inch). Release the armature; the target should fall visibly
downward (at least 0.010 inch) before the target is caught by the latch.

ELECTRICAL TESTS

CAUTION
Remove ALL power from the relay before removing or inserting any of the
printed circuit cards. Failure to observe this caution may result in
damage to and/or iiisoperation of the relay.

Drawout Relays General

Since all drawout relays in service operate in their cases, it is recommended that
they be tested in their cases or an equivalent steel case. In this way any magnetic
effects of the enclosure will be accurately duplicated during testing. A relay may
be tested without removing it from the panel by using a 12XLA13A test plug. This
plug makes connections only with the relay and does not disturb any shorting bars in
the case. Of course, the I2XLA12A test plug may also be used. Although this test
plug allows greater testing flexibility, it also requires CT shorting jumpers and
the exercise of greater care, since connections are made to both the relay and the
external circuitry.

Power Requirements, General

All alternating current operated devices are affected by frequency. Since non—
sinusoidal waveforms can be analyzed as a fundamental frequency plus harmonics of
the fundamental frequency, it follows that alternating current devices (relays) will
be affected by the applied waveform.

Therefore, in order to properly test alternating current relays it is essential to

use a sine wdve of current and/or voltage. The purity of the sine wave (i.e., its
freedom from harmonics) cannot be expressed as a finite number for any particular
relay; however, any relay using tuned circuits, RL or RC networks, or saturating
electromagnets (such as time overcurrent relays), would be essentially affected by
non-sinusoidal waveforms.

Similarly, relays requiring DC control power should be tested using DC and not full
wave rectified power. Unless the rectified supply is well filtered, many relays
will not operate properly due to the dips in the rectified power. Zener diodes, for
example, can turn off during these dips. As a general rule, the DC source should
not contain more than 5% ripple.

CAUTION
When performing the following electrical tests it is very important to
adhere to the length of time that voltage and/or current is applied to the
relay. The SBD relay is designed to perform satisfactorily during in—
service operation when applied per the APPLICATION section and within the
limits called for in the RATINGS section. The relay is not rated for
continuous operation, with some of the voltages and currents applied, when
perforninq all the following electrical tests.

Voltage Pickup

Set the SBD relay to the 50 volt tap setting (which is the equivalent of 100 volts
rms symmetrical pickup as tested) located on the front of the relay, and connect the
relay per the test diagrdm in Figure 11.
 GEK-45451

CAUTION
Do not apply voltage to the SBD relay for longer than
not re-apply voltage more often than once every 10 seconds and do
2 minutes.

With S2 open and Si closed, pre—set the voltag

e as read on the AC voltmeter for 95
volts. Open Si, then close S2, in that order. The relay is now ready to be tested.
Close Si and increase the voltage until the SCRs fire,
as indicated by a drop in the
voltmeter reading and an indication in the arTlne
ter reading. The voltage reached
prior to the voltmeter drop is the pickup
voltage. If necessary, adjust the
rheostat located on the front of the relay to obtain
100 j 4 volts pickup.
Tap Voltage Test

This test is to check the calibration of the 100, 150, 200,

tap settings, 250, 300, and 350 volt
which are obtained by a movable lead, on a tap
front of the block located in the
SBD relay. Tap settings are a function of a voltage divider
consisting of precision resistors mounted on the printed circu circuit
it card.
Connect the relay per Figure 12. Set the relay to the tap setting that is to be
tested. Apply 10% of tap voltage to the relay, as read
connected between terminals 5 and 6. on the AC voltmeter
The AC voltmeter connected between terminals
16 and 5 should read 5 volts ± 2%. (The voltmeter should have an input impedance of
at least 5000 ohms/volt for this test.)

Pickup Current and Output Test

Set the relay to the minimum voltage tap setting. Set the pickup current link
located on the front of the SBD relay to the
desired current pickup setting.
Connect the relay per the test diagram shown in
Figure 16. Increase the current
until the telephone relay (RT) operates and the
lamp lights. This is the actual
pickup current, and must be within 10% of the curre
nt pickup setting (either 0.5 or
1.0).

Full Voltage Test (Optional)

The previous tests are sufficient to verify the proper operati

on and calibration of
the SBD relay.

[ CAUTION
The full voltage test, because of the high power requirements
and
potential danger due to high voltages, with the possibility of damag the
the SBD relay due e to
to improper test procedure, is an optional test and
to the discretion left
of the user.

This test applies full voltage, current and power

to the relay in order to duplicate
conditions during a fault.

21
 GEK-45451

This optional test requires a source of adjustable AC voltage, with an excellent

waveform) capable of providing more than twice the voltage of the tap to be tested,
and enough current availability for pickup, determined by the pickup sensitivity
setting. An HEA type lockout relay is required, with a coil rated for the DC
control voltage of the SBD relay and having an operating time of approximately 16
milliseconds, and capable of interrupting the test voltage and current. The
auxiliary relay shown in Figure 17 with two normally—c losed contacts must open its
contacts not more than 100 milliseconds after being energized.

When a voltage greater than twice the tap setting is applied, and enough current
flows in the relay, the SBD will provide a contact closure, picking up the HEA,
which will remove the AC source from the SBD relay. The auxiliary relay shown in
Figure 17 provides the removal of the AC voltage should a malfunction occur. Note
voltage tap setting , if the
that, even though the applied voltage exceeds the
required pickup current does not flow, the SBD relay will not operate and
consequently the auxiliary relay will operate, protecting the SBD relay, and
indicate a malfunction.

Observe the relay’s short time ratings when performing this test. An oscilloscope
or high speed oscillograph may be used to observe the operation of the relay.

OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS when performing the full voltage test. Carefully
connect the SBD relay as shown in the test diagram of Figure 17. With 52 open and
Si closed, set the voltage, as read on the rms voltmeter, greater than two times the
tap setting selected to be tested. Open Si and close S2, in that order. The relay
is now ready to be tested. Note that R (current limiting resistor) in Figure 17 is

High Potential Testing (Insulation Testing)

CAUTION

When high—potential testing this relay, the surge ground connection to

1
stud 4 must be removed and all studs shorted together to avoid damage to
the surge capacitors in the relay.

INSTALLATION PROCEDURE

LOCATION AND MOUNTING

from
The relay should be mounted on a vertical surface in a location reasonably free
excessive heat, moisture, dust and vibrati on. The relay case may be grounded, if
desired, using at least #12 3&S gage copper wire. The outline and panel drilling
diagram for the Type SBD relays is shown in Figure 22.

CONNECTIONS

The internal connection diagram for the Type SBD is shown in Figure 13. The
external connection diagrams are shown in Figures 1 through 4.

22
 GEK-45451

Stud 4, the relay surge ground, should be connected to the station ground bus, using
the shortest and most direct route.
The voltage tap plug and the current tap plug should be moved to the desired
settings.
TARGET/SEAL-IN UNIT
Set the target/seal—in unit tap screw In the desired position. The contact
adjustment will not be disturbed if a screw is first transferred from the left
contact to the desired tap position on the right contact, and the screw In the
undesired tap Is then removed and transferred to the left contact.
H I POT
See High Potential Testing section under ACCEPTANCE TESTS.

PERIODIC CHECKS AND ROUTINE MAINTENANCE

In view of the vital role of protective relays in the operation of a power system,
it is important that a periodic test program be followed. The Interval between
periodic checks will vary depending upon environment, type of relay and the user’s
experience with periodic testing. Until the user has accumulated enough experience
to select the test Interval best suited to his individual requirements, it
is
suggested that the points listed under ACCEPTANCE TESTS be checked at an interval of
from one to two years.

CONTACT CLEANING

For cleaning relay contacts, a flexible burnishing tool should be used. This is
a
flexible strip of metal with an etch—roughened surface, which in effect resembles
a
superfine file. The polishing action of this file is so delicate that no scratches
are left on the contacts, yet it cleans off any corrosion thoroughly and rapidly
.
The flexibility of the tool ensures the cleaning of the actual points of contact.
Relay contacts should never be cleaned with knives, files, or abrasive paper or
cloth.

RENEWAL PARTS
Sufficient quantities of renewal parts should be kept In stock for the prompt
replacement of any that are worn, broken or damaged.

When ordering renewal parts, address the nearest Sales Office of the General
Electric Company. Specify the name of the part wanted, quantity required, and
complete nameplate data, including the serial number, of the relay for which the
part is required.

Since the last edition, changes have been made on pages 7 and 8 in the OPERATING
PRINCIPLES section, on p.9 in the VOLTAGE RATING paragraph, in the CONNECTIONS
section on p.23, and in Figure 22.
