SIMULATION SETUP
The simulation feature allows testing of the functionality of the relay in response to
programmed conditions, without the need of external AC voltage and current inputs.
System parameters such as currents and voltages, phase angles and system
frequency are entered as setpoints. When placed in simulation mode, the relay
suspends reading actual AC inputs and generates samples to represent the
programmed phasors. These samples are used in all calculations and protection
logic. Enabling this feature will turn off the In Service LED, turn on the Test Mode
LED, and de-energize the self-test relay.
WHEN IN SIMULATION MODE, PROTECTION FEATURES DO NOT OPERATE
BASED ON ACTUAL SYSTEM INPUTS. IF SIMULATION MODE IS USED FOR
FIELD TESTING ON EQUIPMENT, OTHER MEANS OF PROTECTION MUST BE
PROVIDED BY THE OPERATOR.

SIMULATION FUNCTION
: Select the simulation mode required. Select
Disabled to return the 745 to normal operation. The following table details the
simulation function modes.
–
“Prefault Mode”:
Select
Prefault Mode
to simulate the normal operating
condition of a transformer. In this mode, the normal inputs are replaced
with sample values generated based on the programmed prefault values.
Phase currents are balanced (i.e. equal in magnitude and 120
°
apart), and
the phase lag between windings is that which would result under normal
conditions for the transformer type selected. The magnitude of phase cur-
rents for each winding are set to the values programmed in

“Fault Mode”: Select “Fault Mode” to simulate the faulted operating condi-
tion of a transformer. In this mode, the normal inputs are replaced with
sample values generated based on the programmed fault values. The mag-
nitude and angle of each phase current and ground current of the available
windings, the magnitude and angle of the voltage input, and system fre-
quency are set to the values programmed under
