Figure. 5.4.4 - 191. Signal status graph of the transient overcurrent auto-recloser cycle.
1. An overcurrent is found in the protected line causing the I> protection to pick up. This
activates the AR1 R
AR1 Request
equested
ed signal to begin to calculate the SSho
hot1 Star
t1 Start T
t Time
ime. This activates
the SSho
hot 1 Running
t 1 Running signal eventhough the auto-recloser function is not yet running.
2. The SSho
hot1 Star
t1 Start T
t Time
ime (500 ms) for has elapsed and the auto-recloser function starts running
(AR Running
AR Running). This sends an "Open" command to the breaker.
3. The circuit breaker is opened and the I> stage's START signal is released and simultaneously
REQ1 trip signal for auto-reclosing is released. The auto-recloser function starts calculating
the SSho
hot1 Dead T
t1 Dead Time
ime to close the breaker.
4. The fault is cleared during the SSho
hot1 Dead T
t1 Dead Time
ime (200 ms). When this time is exceeded, the
auto-recloser function sends a "Close" request to the object breaker: the conditions are met
and the breaker's "Close" command is sent to the breaker's close coil.
5. The circuit breaker is closed and since the fault was cleared, no pick-ups are detected. A
"Close" command is dropped after the breaker's "Closed" indication is received and the auto-
recloser function starts calculating the SSho
hot1 R
t1 Reclaim
eclaim TTime
ime.
6. The SSho
hot1 R
t1 Reclaim
eclaim TTime
ime (10 s) is exceeded, and so the AR Running
AR Running, AR1 R
AR1 Request
equested
ed and
SSho
hot 1 Running
t 1 Running signals are terminated and the AR R
AR Reclaim
eclaim calculation begins. The difference
between auto-reclosing and shot-specific reclaim times is that the function jumps to the next
available shot should the fault returns. If a fault returns after a successful cycle and the
function's AR Reclaim signal is active, the function jumps directly to the Final Trip state and
then enters the lock-out state. The user can control this behavior through the function
settings. Both reclaim times can be set to 0 s when they are not needed, and the function
skips all timers that are set to zero. The user can also set is so that AR Reclaim is not used at
all after a successful recloser cycle.
7. The AR R
AR Reclaim
eclaim time is exceeded and the function is set to "Ready" to wait for the next
request.
