If a test switch is to be used for changing to test mode, we recommed the following procedure:
• Block the differential protection via a binary input.
• Use the test switch to activate/deactivate the test mode.
• Reset the blocking of the differential protection via the binary input.
2.2.2.3
Differential Protection Commissioning Mode
General
In the differential protection commissioning mode (commissioning mode in the following), the differential pro-
tection does not generate TRIP commands. The commissioning mode is intended to support the commission-
ing of the differential protection. It can be used to control the differential and restraint currents, to visualise the
differential protection characteristic and thus the operating point of the differential protection. By changing pa-
rameters, the operating point can be changed without risk up to the generation of a trip.
The commissioning mode is activated on a device of the protection device constellation and affects all devices
(indication No. 3193
„Comm.Diff act.“
). The commissioning mode has to be deactivated on the device on
which it was activated.
The commissioning mode can be activated/deactivated as follows:
• Using the integrated keypad: Menu Control/Taggings/Set: „Commissioning mode“
• Via binary inputs (No. 3260
„>Comm. Diff ON“
, No. 3261
„>Comm. Diff OFF“
) if this was allocated
• In DIGSI with Control/Taggings: „Diff: Commissioning mode“
Principle of function
In the following, the logic is shown in a simplified way:
Figure 2-17
Logic diagram of the commissioning mode
There are two ways to set the commissioning mode. The first way is to use a command (commissioning mode
on / commissioning mode off) which is generated either when operating the integrated keypad or when oper-
ating with DIGSI. The second way is to use the binary inputs (No. 3260
„>Comm. Diff ON“
, No. 3261
„>Comm. Diff OFF“
).
Depending on the way used for controlling the commissioning mode, either the indication
„Comm
Diff.ONoff“
(No. 3262) or
„CommDiffONoffBI“
(No. 3263) is generated. The way used for deactivating
the commissioning mode always has to be identical to the way used for activating. The indication
„Comm.
Diff“
(No. 3191) is generated independently of the chosen way.
The following figures show possible variants for the control of the binary inputs. If a switch is used for the control
(Figure 2-19), it has to be considered that binary input
„>Comm. Diff ON“
(No. 3260) must be parameterized
as NO contact and that binary input
„>Comm. Diff OFF“
(No. 3261) must be parameterized as NC contact.
