    The feeder terminal is intended to be used fordirectional and non-directional overcurrent pro-tection and directional earth-fault protection.The feeder terminals include one or two three-phase directional overcurrent relay modulesSPCS 4D11 and SPCS 4D12 and one two-stagedirectional neutral current module type SPCS3C4.

    The control module SPTO 6D3 included in theunit indicates locally by means of LED indica-tors the status of maximum seven disconnectorsand/or circuit breakers. In addition, the moduleallows the status information of the circuit break-ers and the disconnectors to be transferred to theremote control system, and maximum six ob-jects to be opened and closed using the remotecontrol system. The status information and thecontrol signals are transmitted over the serialbus. The push-buttons on the front panel of thecontrol module can be used for local controloperations.

    Auto-reclosing is integrated into the controlmodule. Maximum five high-speed or delayedauto-reclose shots can be done.

    The control module is able to measure andindicate the values of the three phase currentsand the three phase-to-phase voltages. Activeand reactive power can be measured via two mAinputs or using internal current and voltagesignals. When the mA inputs are used, externalmeasuring transducers are required.

    Energy can be calculated either from the powervalues measured or by using one input as anenergy pulse counter. The values measured areindicated locally and remotely as scaled values.

    The directional overcurrent modules and thedirectional earth-fault module measure the threephase currents of the feeder, the three phase-to-phase voltages, neutral current and residual volt-age. All the values measured and recorded areindicated locally and can be transmitted to theremote control system over the SPA bus.

    The directional overcurrent relay module SPCS4D11 provides three-stage overcurrent protec-tion. It contains three overcurrent stages: twodirectional overcurrent stages, i.e. a low-set stageI> and a high-set stage I>>, and one non-directional high-set stage I>>>.

    The operation of the low-set stage I> and thehigh-set stage I>> is based on measuring twophase currents (IL1 and IL3) and the two oppo-site phase-to-phase voltages (U23 and U12). Thebasic angle ϕb of the direction measurementforms an angle that has a 0... -90° displacementin negative direction from the opposite phase-to-phase voltage. Once the current on one of thephases exceeds the setting value and the phaseangle between the base angle ϕb and current fallswithin the operation sector ±80° one of thedirectional overcurrent stages starts. When theset operate time of the stage that started expires,the overcurrent module issues a trip signal forthe stage.

    The stage I>> can be set to non-directionaloperation. The stage I>> start if the currentmeasured on one of the two phases exceeds thesetting value.

    The non-directional high-set stage I>>> starts ifthe current measured on one of the two phasesexceeds the setting value of the stage. When theset operate time expires, the stage provides a tripsignal. The high-set stage I>>> is to operate atnearby short circuits when the voltage is too lowto allow the direction of the current to bedetermined.

    The operation of the low-set stage I> is based ondefinite time or inverse time characteristic,whereas the high-set stages I>> and I>>> operatemomentaneously or with a definite time charac-teristic.

    The directional overcurrent modules SPCS4D12 and SPCS 4D11 are identical except forthe currents and voltages measured. The over-current module SPCS 4D12 measures the phasecurrents IL1 and IL2 and the phase-to-phasevoltages U23 and U31.

    The two-stage directional earth-fault protectionmodule SPCS 3C4 measures neutral currentand neutral displacement voltage. The modulestarts if the neutral displacement voltage exceedsthe set start value and the current and phaseangle are such that the set start value of Iϕ isexceeded. When the set operate time expires thelow-set stage of the earth-fault protection mod-ule provides a trip signal. Correspondingly, thehigh-set stage of the earth-fault module starts,when the residual voltage exceeds the set value

    and the current measured and the phase anglebetween the neutral current and the residualvoltage are such that the set start current levelIϕ>> is exceeded. When the selected operatetime expires, the high-set stage of the earth-faultmodule issues a trip command.

    The high-set stage of the directional earth-faultmodule can be selected to operate in the samedirection as the low-set stage, or in the oppositedirection.

    The I/O module SPTR 6B19 has a fixed 40 msdelay for the control of output relays B and C.This delay is added to the normal operation delay.When the output relay B is used as a second tripoutput the fixed 40 ms delay is by-passed viaswitch SGR/7. The input signals and outputsignals of the I/O module are permanently wired

    to the card locations of the feeder terminal.Since the output signals are individually wiredfrom each card location to the I/O module, themodules have to be plugged in as shown in thefigure on the front page to secure that theconnection diagram for the relay assembly cor-responds to the physical operation of the relay.

    The auto-reclose function integrated into thecontrol module SPTO 6D3 allows maximumfive auto-reclose shots. Each auto-reclose shotcan be initiated by three signals (AR1, AR2 orAR3) given by the overcurrent and earth-faultmodules of the feeder terminal.

    The three start initiating signals can be eitherstart or trip signals of the protection relay mod-ules. For the configuration of the signals seechapter "Intermodular control signal exchange".

    From program version 055 and later auto-reclosing can be started by an external signalover input channel 14 as well.

    When the start signals of the protection relaymodules are used to start an auto-reclose se-quence, the start of the auto-reclose operationcan be delayed to avoid unnecessary auto-reclosures. The dead times can be programmedindependently for each shot. The reclaim time,too, is adjustable.

    For double busbar systems with two circuitbreakers (duplex) the auto-reclose program in-cludes a so called duplex logic, which alwaysopens both circuit breakers but gives the closingcommand only to the last breaker to have beenclosed.

    Auto-reclosefunctions

    Control functions

    General

    The control module SPTO 6D3 is used to readthe status information of the circuit breakersand disconnectors.The module indicates thestatus locally through LED indicators and trans-fers the information to station level equipmentvia the SPA bus. The status of maximum sevenobjects can be indicated.

    The control module is also capable of control-ling up to six objects, e.g. circuit breakers ordisconnectors, either locally or through openingor closing commands over the SPA bus.

    In addition to status information the controlmodule reads other binary data, indicates itlocally and transfers the information to stationlevel equipment. Maximum seven external bi-nary signals can be wired to the feeder terminal.

    Input channels 1...7 The control module uses the input channels1…7 to read the status information of circuitbreakers and disconnectors. Each of these chan-nels is formed by two binary inputs, one forreading open status and the other for readingclosed status of an object. This means that thestatus information has to be wired to the feederterminal as four-pole information.

    The front panel of SPTO 6D3 has a 4x4 matrixof status indication LEDs. At a time maximumseven of these LEDs can indicate status. Thecircuit breaker / disconnector configuration tobe indicated by these LEDs is freely program-mable by the user.

    Maximum six of the objects whose status data isread via input channels 1…7 can be operatedusing the outputs OPEN1…6 and CLOSE1…6.

    Input channels 8…14and 15…17

    In addition, the control module can be used toread seven external and three internal binarysignals. The external signals, channels 8...14,can be single contact data wired from the bayand the internal signals, channels 15...17 arestart and trip signals of the protection relaymodules. See the chapter "Signal diagram".

    The input signal type for the cannels 8...17 canbe selected to be active at high state, i.e. when acontrol voltage is applied to the input, or at lowstate, i.e. when no control signal is applied to theinput.

    The indications of the activated external inputchannels 8...13 can be individually programmedto be memory controlled. This means that theLED indicator for a certain input channel, whichhas been activated for more than 10 ms, remainslit until separately reset, either by pressing thepush-buttons STEP and RESET simultaneouslyor giving the parameter S5 the value of 0 or 1.

    The input channels 8…17 can be used to con-trol the outputs OPEN1...6, CLOSE 1...6 andthe outputs SIGNAL5 and SIGNAL6. Whenan input channel is activated the OPEN orCLOSE output configured to the channel deliv-ers a control signal. The SIGNAL outputs areactive as long as the input channels are active.

    Interlocking

    Direct output control

    Measurementfunctions

    The control module includes a feeder-orientedinterlocking logic which can be freely pro-grammed by the user. The interlocking programdefines when the control of an object is allowed.When an open or close command is given, theinterlocking logic checks whether the operationis permitted or not, and then it executes thecommand or cancels it.

    The interlocking can be programmed to dependon the status of the four-pole input channels1…7 and the status of input channels 8…17.The trip signals of the relay modules are notaffected by the interlocking system.

    Normally the outputs OPEN1…6 and CLOSE1…6 are controlled by open or close com-mands, given locally with push-buttons or overthe serial bus. When Direct Output Control hasbeen selected all the outputs, i.e. OPEN1…6,

    CLOSE1…6 and SIGNAL5 or 6, can be con-trolled without an open or close command. Theoutputs are controlled by the programmed logicand the status of the input channels 1…7 and8…17.

    The control module SPTO 6D3, the directionalovercurrent relay modules SPCS 4D11and SPCS4D12 and the directional earth-fault moduleSPCS 3C4 measure analog input signals.

    The two-phase directional overcurrent relaymodule SPCS 4D11 measures two phase cur-rents (IL1, IL3) and two phase-to-phase voltages(U12, U23). The overcurrent relay module SPCS4D12 measures the phase currents IL1 and IL2and the phase-to-phase voltages U23 and U31.The current values are indicated locally on thedisplay and can be transmitted to the remotecontrol system over the SPA bus.

    The directional neutral current module SPCS3C4 measures three analog signals, neutral cur-rent I0, residual voltage U0 and Iϕ, which is theresistive or capacitive component of the neutralcurrent. This module indicates the three analogvalues locally on the front panel display andtransmits the data to the remote control systemover the SPA bus, when required.

    The protection relay modules record the valuesof the analog signals measured in a fault situa-tion. The overcurrent and earth-fault modulesalways indicate the measured values as a multi-ple of the rated current or voltage of the relay.

    The standard control module is provided with apulse counter input for the counting of energypulses. To be able to measure analog signals thecontrol module SPTO 6D3 needs an optionalmeasuring module SPTM 8A1, SPTM 6A2 orSPTM 6A3. Provided with the measuring mod-ule SPTM 8A1 the control module is able tomeasure the three phase currents and the threephase-to-phase voltages. Active and reactivepower are measured via two mA inputs andexternal measuring transducers.

    The measuring module SPTM 6A2 allows thecontrol module to measure the three phasecurrents and the three phase-to-phase voltages.Active and reactive power are measured over anAron connection and internal current and volt-age signals of the module.

    When using the measuring module SPTM 6A3the control module measures the three phasecurrents and the three phase-to-phase voltages.Active and reactive power are measured on thebasis of one internal signals: one voltage signaland two current signals. The voltage to be usedand the corresponding currents are selected withswitches.

    The ratio of the primary current and voltagetransformers can be programmed into the con-trol module. Using these values the controlmodule is able to indicate the actual primaryvalues of the phase currents, phase-to-phasevoltages and power. When power is measuredvia mA inputs, the mA signals can be scaled toactual MW and MVar values. These primaryvalues can be indicated locally and, when re-quired, transmitted to the remote control sys-tem over the SPA bus .

    Active energy can be measured in two ways; bycalculating the value on the basis of the powermeasured or using input channel 11 as a pulsecounter. In the former case one of the measuringmodules, SPTM 8A1, SPTM 6A2 or SPTM6A3, is required and in the latter case an externalenergy meter with pulse output needed. In bothcases the energy measured can be displayedlocally and transmitted to higher-level equip-ment over the SPA bus.

    Serialcommunication

    The feeder terminal is provided with two serialcommunication ports, one on the front paneland one on the rear panel.

    The 9-pin RS 232 connection on the front panelis intended for connecting a PC to be used forprogramming the CB/disconnector configura-

    tion, the feeder-oriented interlocking logic andother parameters for the control module.

    The 9-pin RS 485 connection on the rear panelconnects the feeder terminal to the SPA bus overa bus connection module type SPA-ZC 17_ orSPA-ZC21_.

    Auxiliary powersupply

    For its operation the feeder terminal needs asecured auxiliary voltage supply. The internalpower supply module SPGU __ of the feederterminal forms the voltages required by themeasuring relay modules, the control moduleand the input / output modules.

    The power supply module is a transformer con-nected, i.e. galvanically isolated primary andsecondary side, flyback-type DC/DC converter.The primary side of the power supply module is

    protected by a fuse, F1, located on the PCB ofthe module. The fuse size is 1 A (slow).

    A green LED indicator Uaux on the front panelis lit when the power supply module is in opera-tion. There are two versions of power supplymodules available. The secondary sides areidenticalexcept for the input voltage range. Theinput voltage range is marked on the front panelof the relay.

    Fig. 10. The internal switches of the two-phase directional overcurrent relay module SPCS 4D11

    Part of the start and trip signals of the relaymodules is permanently connected to controlthe outputs, and part of the signals is linkedthrough switchgroup SGR, located at the frontedge of the I/O module SPTR 6B19.

    The switches are set through the opening of thesystem panel.

    The SGR switches have the following functions:

    Switch Function Factorysetting

    SGR/1 Links the signal SS1/U1 of SPCS 4D11 to output SIGNAL3 1SGR/2 Links the signals TS1/U1 and TS1/U3 of SPCS 4D11 to

    output SIGNAL1 1SGR/3 Links the signal TS1/U2 of SPCS 3C4 to output TRIP 1SGR/4 No function in SPAC 538 C. Has to be in position 0 0SGR/5 Links the signal SS1/U3 of SPCS 4D12 to output SIGNAL3 1SGR/6 No function in SPAC 538 C. Has to be in position 0 0SGR/7 Links all the signals connected to TRIP output to SIGNAL1 output 0SGR/8 Links all the signals which are connected to the TRIP output to

    output SIGNAL2 0

    Note!Switch SGR/3: If this switch is open and the Iϕ>stage trips, the trip signal controls the outputSIGNAL2 and gives an internal auto-recloseinhibit signal to the auto-reclose unit. Thus thelow-set earth-fault stage only has a signallingfunction when an earth fault occurs.

    Switch SGR/7: By closing this switch the outputSIGNAL1 can be used as a second trip output,for instance, in applications with two circuitbreakers.

    Switch SGR/8: By closing this switch the outputSIGNAL2 can be used as a general alarm outputfor the protection relay modules, especially whenSIGNAL1 is used as a second trip output.

    The operation of the outputs SIGNAL1 and 2is delayed by 40 ms when the outputs are usedto indicate operation of the overcurrent andearth-fault relay modules. This delay eliminatesunnecessary signalling if auto-reclosing is startedby the trip signals of the protection relay mod-ules. When an auto-reclose sequence has startedthe internal signal ARDUE inhibits the outputsSIGNAL1 and 2.

    Start-up The start-up should be done according to thefollowing instructions. The checks 1 and 2 haveto be done before the auxiliary power supply isswitched on.

    1. Voltage ranges of the binary inputs

    Before connecting voltage to the input channels1…14, check the operating voltage range of theinputs. The voltage range, Uaux is marked on thefront panel of the feeder terminal. See chapter"Technical data".

    2. Auxiliary supply voltage

    Before switching on the auxiliary supply voltagecheck the input voltage range of the powersupply module. The voltage range, Uaux ismarked on the front panel of the feeder termi-nal. See chapter "Technical data".

    3. Configuring the control module SPTO 6D3

    All the nonvolatile EEPROM parameters havebeen given default values after factory testing.The default parameters are explained in themanual for the control module SPTO 6D3.

    If the default values are not satisfactory, thefollowing parameters can be programmed:- Configuration; user-defined configuration- Interlocking; user-defined interlocking- OPEN and CLOSE outputs; pulse lenghts- Auto-reclosing; auto-reclose sequence, dead

    times, reclaim time, start delays- Measurements; primary current and voltage

    transformer ratios, settings for active and reac-tive power measurement, settings for energymeasurement

    - Input channels 8...17; settings for polarity andoutput activation

    - Event reporting; event masks, event delay times

    The parameters can be set via the front panel RS232 connection or via the rear panel RS 485connection using the SPA protocol. Instruc-tions are given in the manual for the controlmodule SPTO 6D3.

    4. Settings of the protection modules SPCS4D11, SPCS 4D12 and SPCS 3C4

    During testing at the factory the switches of theovercurrent and earth-fault relay modules havebeen given default values, see the chapter"Intermodular control signal exchange". All thecurrent and time settings of the directionalovercurrent relay module SPCS 4D11 and SPCS4D12 are set at their minimum values. Thechecksums for the default values of SPCS 4D11and SPCS 4D12 are as follows:

    Switchgroup ∑

    SGF1 0SGF2 0SGR1 155SGR2 128SGB1 0SGB2 0SGB3 0

    During factory testing the setting knobs on thefront panel of the directional earth-fault moduleSPCS 3C4 are set in their middle position andall the front panel switches SG1 in position 0.For the default values of the switches SGB onthe printed circuit board of SPCS 3C4, see thechapter "Intermodular control signal exchange".

    When auto-reclose functions or external block-ing signals are to be used, the positions of theswitches SGB1, SGB2, SGR1 and SGR2 of theovercurrent modules SPCS 4D11 and SPCD4D12 and the positions of the switches SGB onthe PC board of the earth-fault relay moduleSPCS 3C4 should be checked.

    The overcurrent relay modules SPCS 4D11 andSPCS 4D12 can be configured using the push-buttons on the front panels of the modules. Inaddition, the RS 232 connection on the frontpanel of the control module or the RS 485connection on the rear panel of the feeder termi-nal can be used for setting the overcurrent relaymodules.

    The functions of the switches are described inthe manuals for the directional overcurrent pro-tection module SPCS 4D1_ and the earth-faultprotection module SPCS 3C4.

    Description offunctions

    Control functions

    The control module type SPTO 6D3 is used forreading binary input signals and for local andremote status indication of the binary signals.Thecontrol module also executes open and closecommands for controllable switching devices ofthe switchgear.

    Input channels 1…7 are used for reading statusinformation of the switching devices, i.e. circuitbreakers and disconnectors here after calledobjects. Each of these channels include twophysical inputs, one for the "object open" andone for the "object closed" information. Thecontrol module indicates the status informationlocally on the front panel by means of LEDindicators and transfers the status informationto the substation level communication equip-ment using the SPA serial bus.

    The control module reads the status informa-tion of max. 7 objects. The front panel of thecontrol module is provided with a LED matrixused for object status indication. The objectstatus indication LEDs of the control moduleare freely configurable by the user to match thecombinations of switching devices of theswitchgear cubicles.

    Input channels 8…17 consist of single binaryinput circuits. These channels are basically usedfor transferring binary signals, other than circuitbreaker and disconnector status information

    signals, over the SPA bus to the substation levelsystem. The status of input channels 8...13 isindicated locally by LEDs on the front panel ofthe control module.

    The control module is capable of providingopen and close commands for six objects. Thecommands may be given via the local push-buttons on the front panel, the SPA serial bus orthe input channels 8…17. The length of thepulse-shaped OPEN or CLOSE signals can bedetermined by the user.

    An enable signal must be given by the interlock-ing program before an OPEN or CLOSE pulsecan be delivered. The enable signal is controlledby the status of input channels 1…7 and 8…17and the interlocking program written by theuser.

    Signal outputs, SIGNAL5 and 6 can be used forindicating the status of the input channels 8…17.

    The OPEN, CLOSE or SIGNAL outputs canbe controlled by the Direct Output Controlprogram. This program resembles the interlock-ing program. The user can define under whichcircumstances an output is to be activated. Thiscontrol of an output is determined by the statusof inputs 1…7 and 8…17, the position of theLOCAL/REMOTE key switch and the DirectOutput Control Program written by the user.

    As a standard feature the control module SPTO6D3 includes a pulse counter input by means ofwhich energy pulse are counted. For additionalmeasuring functions an optional measuringmodule is required. The optional module recti-fies and processes the analog signals and for-wards them to the control module, which incor-porates the actual measuring software. Threetypes of optional measuring modules are avail-able.

    When the measuring module type SPTM 8A1 isused in combination with the control moduleSPTO 6D3 three phase currents, three phase-to-phase voltages and two mA signals can bemeasured. The mA inputs are used for measur-ing active and reactive power. External measur-ing transducers are needed.

    When the measuring module type SPTM 6A2is used in combination with the control moduleSPTO 6D3 three phase currents, three phase-to-phase voltages and active and reactive powercan be measured. From the current and voltage

    input signals the measuring module forms thesignals which are proportional to active powerand reactive power using the Aron connectionprinciple.

    When the measuring module type SPTM 6A3is used in combination with the control moduleSPTO 6D3 three phase currents, three phase-to-phase voltages as well as active and reactivepower can be measured. From one voltage signaland two current signals the measuring moduleforms the signals which correspond to the three-phase active and three-phase reactive power.The voltage to be used and its related currentsignals can be selected by means of switches.

    Input channel 11 can be used as a pulse counterinput for energy pulses. Energy can also becalculated by integrating the measured powervalues over time.

    The measured signals can be scaled for displaylocally and for remote transfer over the SPA busas primary values.

    Auto-reclosing The control module SPTO 6D3 is capable ofperforming five auto-reclosings. Each auto-reclose cycle can be started by three differentstart initiation signals delivered by the protec-tion relay modules of the feeder terminal. Anauto-reclose system can deliver an open com-mand to the breaker. Thus either the startingsignal or the tripping signal of a particularprotection relay module can be used for startingauto-reclose sequences.

    In double busbar systems with two circuit break-ers (duplex-systems) the auto-reclose functionincludes a so called duplex logic, which routesthe closing command selectively to the circuitbreaker last closed.

    The dead times of the different auto-reclosecycles can be independently determined. Thereclaim time can also be determined by the user.

    The control module features three red operationindicators which show the status of the module

    itself. These LEDs are normally dark. The indi-cators have the following functions:

    Indicator Function

    O -> I Indicates that an auto-reclose sequence is in progress. The LED is lit when anauto-reclose cycle starts and switched off when the auto-reclose programmedelivers a close command.

    TEST The LED is lit when switch SG1/1=1. IN this switch position the interlockingfunction are out of use.

    INTERLOCK The LED is lit when a control command is given locally but the control of theobject is prohibited by the interlocking program. The led indicator can beswitched off by pushing the ∩ button but it is also automatically switched offafter about 30 s.When the control module is in the programming mode and the interlockingsare in use the indicator lights and it is switched off when the operation modeis entered or when the interlockings are set out of use.

    Indicators for inputchannels 8…13

    The status of the input channels 8…13 is indi-cated locally by LEDs on the front panel. Chan-nel 8 is indicated by the topmost LED andchannel 13 by the bottom LED.

    An input can be defined to be active when theinput signal is high (controlled by NO contact)or active when the input signal is low (controlledby NC contact). The LED is lit when the inputis active.

    The indication of the active status of the inputchannels 8...13 can be separately be programmed

    Operation indicators

    The local I and O push buttons, i.e. the OPENand CLOSE push buttons, are made operativeby turning the key switch into the positionLOCAL, indicated by the yellow LED markedL. In this switch position all remote controlsignals via the serial interface are inhibited.

    Accordingly, to be able to control an object viathe serial interface, the key switch must be in theREMOTE position, indicated by the yellowLED marked R. When the key switch is in the

    REMOTE position, local push-button controlis inhibited. Control signals via input channels8...17 or the direct output control programmeare allowed both in the LOCAL and the RE-MOTE position. The position information canalso be included in the Direct Output Controlfunction.

    The key of the key switch can be removed ineither position.

    LOCAL/REMOTEkey switch

    A local control sequence is started by pressingthe ∩ push button. After that the indicator unitof the first object to be controllable starts flash-ing.

    If the object is closed the indicator for the closedposition starts flashing and if the object is openthe indicator for the open position starts flash-ing. The indicator remains flashing until a con-trol command is given or a timeout of 1 min haselapsed.

    If the first object is not to be controlled, the ∩push button is pressed again and the indicator of

    the second object to be controlled starts flash-ing.

    The close and open commands are given withthe I (close) and O (open) push-buttons. De-pending on the status of inputs 1…7 and 8…17and the interlocking function the control mod-ule either executes the selected command orswitches on the INTERLOCK LED to indicatethat the operation is inhibited.

    The lenght of the control pulse can be set in therange 0.1…100 s.

    Switch Function

    SG1/1 Switch SG1/1 is used to inhibit the interlockings during testing

    When SG1/1=0, the interlocking function is in use

    When SG1/1=1, the interlocking function is out of use and the red TESTLED is lit. All control operations are allowed.NOTE! Switch SG1/1 should be used only for test purposes!

    SG1/2 Switch SG1/2 is used to inhibit autoreclosing

    When SG1/1=0, the auto-recl
