Distribution lines have their own equipment outdoors, the types of loads are various, and
the configurations of the networks are flexible and complicated. There are many kinds of
fault causes such as direct contact of trees or birds, natural phenomenon of lightning or
heavy snow, and fault spread-out due to customer’s facilities. Among these faults, most of
faults are temporary and the dominant fault type is ground-fault.
For rapid fault detection and fault section isolation, blackout area minimization, many
protection devices such as Recloser, Sectionalizer, and Line Fuse are adopted. Among these
devices, Automatic Circuit Recloser is the most important protection device, whose main
functions are fault current trip and auto-reclosing.
When a fault occurs on the load side of Recloser installed location, Recloser detects fault
current, trips fault current at high speed, and does reclosing actions after the set time to re-
activate the faulted section. In case of temporary fault, the fault can be removed by itself
according to high-speed trip and dead time before reclosing actions. But, in case of
permanent fault, because fault current is still detected after trip and reclosing actions of
pre-set counts, Recloser is locked out finally as opened.
Recloser has the time delay element in protection function of its controller and can be
freely configured for protection coordination with other protection devices.

2.6. RECORDING
This function is used to verify shortly the operated history or log of FTU in normal
operation and fault situation. Event recording is triggered by power reset, set value change,
operation of protection functions, system error or self-diagnosis, etc., and events can be
stored including event occurred time, measured values of current/voltage and operation
description. And, this recording function follows the FIFO (First In First Out) rule. Stored
events can be uploaded to and listed on FTU PC S/W (FTUMan) through RS232C port on
front panel.

Fault & PQM waveforms recording function are used to store the measured instantaneous
current/voltage values of pre-fault and post-fault at 128 samples per cycle. Record length,
trigger source and trigger position of pre/post-fault in recorded data are adjustable. The
record types are 128 samples * 20 cycles, 64 samples * 40 cycles, 32 samples * 80 cycles, 16
samples * 160 cycles.
According to the purpose, operators can set the fault recording trigger source and trigger
position of pre-fault/post-fault. Trigger position means the percentage position in recorded
fault data, and the pre-fault data are recorded before this point and rest of the data are
recorded as the post-fault after this point. The recorded fault waveforms are also uploaded
to FTU PC S/W, and current/voltage waveforms at fault and protection elements operation
can be analyzed with fault evaluation.
This waveform recording function follows the COMTRADE file format rule.

SCADA Tx Transmitting communication data
To test the battery and charger circuit, push ‘BATTERY TEST’ button. When the test
result is fail, we will see turn on Battery Fail LED.
To test the LED, push ‘LAMP TEST’ button. When test is OK, all of the LEDs are turn on
for a while.
This button is used for Annunciator LED Reset (LED turn off). Annunciator LED
represents all the LED’s related to Protection, Reclosing and Self-diagnosis Error.
LIVE LINE LEDs indicate if the lines to source side and load side are energized or
deenergized. LEDs are lit on, when the line voltage goes up the set ‘Voltage ON Level’ and
LEDs are lit off, when the voltage goes down the set ‘Voltage OFF Level’.
Sync.Fail LED is lit on when the sync. failure function operates. The function operates
when the phase angle difference between source-side voltage (Va) and load-side voltage (Vr)
is over the setting value and is sustained during set detection time. This status can be used
for the interlock condition of close operation by configuration.
Fault (Passage) Indicator LEDs are lit on when a fault passes through the Recloser
and line is deenergized by backup protection equipment or recloser trips the line.
Depending on the faulted phase, indicators A, B, C, N, SEF will be lit on.
Reclose Ready LED “On” represents that recloser is closed and reclosing action is
ready.
Reclose Lockout LED is lit on when recloser goes to lockout with open.
22
4.1.9. RECLOSE/PROTECTION/GROUND ENABLE BUTTONS AND LEDS
Push the enable buttons and makes the respective LEDs on to fulfill the Reclosing and
Protection functions. These buttons are toggled between Enable and Disable.
PROTECTION ENABLED button enables or disables Phase Fault Detection and Earth
Fault Detection Functions, simultaneously.
GROUND ENABLED button enables or disables Earth Fault Detection Function only.
To decide the control position to Remote, push REMOTE button and make the LED on.
This button and LED are also toggled between Remote and Local position. But, the
manipulation of this button is possible only in the local for operator’s safety.
The HOT LINE TAG button enables or disables the Recloser switching operation. If
HOT LINE TAG LED is on, Recloser switching operation and auto-reclosing will be
prohibited and only tripping by protection is allowed
These buttons are used to control (OPEN/CLOSE) the Recloser locally. Before local
control command, check first if the control position is LOCAL. SELECT button is a two-
phase safety & confirmation check mechanism, and this concept is similar to SBO (Select
Before Operate) in communication protocol. To manually and locally control the Recloser,
SELECT button should be pushed down to make the corresponding LED on first. Selected
status by SELECT button is sustained until Close or Open command is issued or SBO time
elapses.

5. PROTECTION FUNCTIONS
FTU detects phase and earth fault and trip the breaker.
The fastest operation time is within 45msec including auto-recloser operating time. There
are 58 trip curves, which can be selected for fast and delayed operation respectively. The
curve can be edited by using several parameters, i.e. time multiplier, time adder and
minimum response time. The operating count of fast and delay element can be adjusted by
other parameters.
Earth fault detection function can be enabled or disabled also by toggling ‘Ground
Protection Enable’ button.

Definite time element is an alternative to inverse time protection. It works by tripping the
recloser at a fixed time after pick-up. The combination of inverse curve and definte time
element makes the protection coordination easier. The definite time element follows the
same reclosing sequence with the inverse time element.

5.1.4. TC Curve
FTU-R200 has 54 types of built-in TC curves including ANSI, IEC Standard curves. And
customer can define additional 4 curves as his own curves by using PC Software. Basically,
built-in curves have inverse time characteristics, but can be easily adjusted by three
parameters such as multiplier, time adder and minimum response time. In engineering step,
the selection and adjustments of TC curves shall be done for the protection coordination
with other protection devices in the feeder.
The following parameters are related to change and editing of TC curve’s characteristics.
ü Time Multiplier
ü Time Adder
Time Multiplier is multiplied to the operating time of basic curve (TDM=1.0), then Time
Adder is added to the resulting operating time of the curve adjusted by multiplier.
Minimum Response Time defines the fastest operating time of the curve.
The following tables describe the built-in TC Curve Type and the corresponding numbers
in the setting. TC Curve graphs are shown in the appendix.

5.1.5. EXAMPLE OF TC CURVE EDITING
3-parameters are applied in the following order. The values below are examples.
In the next figure, for example, the curve A is the basic curve. Assume the operating time
of the basic curve (A) at 16 times pickup current is 0.04 sec. When applying Time Multiplier,
curve ‘A’ changes its shape, that is, the curve becomes less steep in time axis and operation
time becomes longer by a multiplier at the same current value like ‘B’ in the figure. The
operating time at 16 times pickup becomes 0.06 sec. Then Time Adder shall be applied. The
operating time of the resulting curve ‘C’ is 0.09sec. Finally Minimum Response Time cuts
the curve part, which is shorter than this time. Then the actual operating time of the
example at 16 times becomes 0.1sec.
35
There are two additional definite time over-current elements in the controller. The next
figure shows 3-stage over-current protection characteristics. The third stage is
prepared for instantaneous protection. Therefore the harmonic restraint is not applied to
third stage elements, but the second stage definite time over-current element.
36
5.1.6. AUTO RECLOSING SEQUENCE
For Permanent fault, under the condition of reclosing enabled, no other restraints such as
cold-load, inrush and no High Current Trip, recloser will be locked out to open the
Reclosing Count repeating trip and reclose according to the preset settings.
Phase
Earth
SEF Reclosing
37
For example in the below figure, the reclosing sequence is organized in 2F2D, which
means the Recloser protection function operates as Instantaneous(Fast) element during
first 2 reclosing shots and operates as Time-Delayed element during last 2 reclosing shots.
This composition also can be configured.
For temporary fault, if the fault is removed before the preset Reclosing Count and no fault
is detected during the preset Reset Time, then the reclosing sequence is initialized to
normal operation standby mode. When a fault is detected again during the Reset Time, the
Recloser will be locked out after the remaining reclosing counts excluding the previously
operated reclosing counts.
Figure 5-4 Temporary Faults: Fault Removal during 1st Reclosing Interval
38
5.1.7. SEQUENCE COORDINATION
Recloser can be equipped with two types of TC trip curves depending on reclosing shot.
The curves are called as fast and delay element and can be set separately with different
kinds of curves. For example, if the total operation count is set to 4 and fast operation count
is set to 2, recloser trips two times by fast element curve first and trips by delay element
before lockout. The setting is normally called as “2F2D”. Sequence coordination function
can be used in the case which more than one recloser is used in series in the same
distribution line. The purpose of the function is to synchronize to use the fast and delay
element for recloser in series during reclosing sequence. For explanation, assume that two
reclosers are installed in the line as the following picture.
When a fault is occurred in the load-side of recloser B, the fast element of A and B sees
the fault simultaneously. But normally B trips first before A reaches the trip point according
to TC curve setting based on the time coordination between A and B. After B trips the fault,
B waits dead time and prepare 2nd trip element (fast element also for 2nd trip in this case)
before first reclosing. In this situation, A also detects the fault. But A didn’t trip the line.
Instead of tripping, A detected the de-energized line before tripping. In this case B also
prepares the protection element as the 2nd trip element (fast element). If the fault is
sustained, the same sequence is repeated. So A and B goes to the 3rd trip element (delay
element) together. The third tripping can be done by B if the delay elements of A and B are
coordinated. If the sequence coordination of A is not enabled, A will trip by fast element
before B trips by delay element because the fast element is set faster than the delay element
normally. That’s not desired situation.
39
5.2. COLD LOAD PICKUP
Cold Load Pickup is the function which allows load current larger than the pickup
value of inverse-time overcurrent protection to be carried on without fault detection during
set interval. It’s achieved by adjusting the pickup value with the multiplier during the
interval. This function is useful to avoid unwanted trip of the line in which loads with big
starting current like arc furnace are connected. This function is enabled when the line is
energized only after recloser lockout or outage more than 180sec. After coldload time, the
coldload function is completed.
If the measured current is larger than the multiples of pickup, FTU regards the situation
as an actual fault. In that case trip and reclosing sequence is same as normal operation.
During reclosing sequence before lockout, coldload pickup is not any more applied.

5.4. SENSITIVE EARTH FAULT (SEF) DETECTION
On the non-grounded network, it is hard to detect fault current because ground current of
non-grounded network is much low. Therefore, FTU-R200 is designed to measure zero-
sequence values from either external core Balanced Current Transformer (or ZCT) or
Residual Connection of 3 Phase Current Transformers to detect earth fault in the non-
grounded network. This function is generally called SEF detection.
In case of earth fault in the non-grounded network, since very small fault current due to
line capacitance component flows into the fault point from both sides, SEF detection also
considers the fault direction even in the radial network. Maximum Torque Angle is for
setting the phase difference between zero-sequence voltage and zero-sequence current, and
the protection zone is between -90° and +90° on the basis of Maximum Torque Angle. And
it can be used for alarm or Trip.
42
The following picture describes fault current flows and phasor diagram in faulted section
and un-faulted section of ungrounded distribution lines. The zero sequence current
direction in faulted section is opposite to the current in un-faulted section. So the direction
of zero sequence current compared to zero sequence voltage can be used to discriminate
fault direction. Like the following diagram, the maximum torque angle 90o is normally used
for detection of earth fault in ungrounded network.

In ungrounded system, core balance CT shall be used to measure small earth fault current.
This function may be overriden or duplicate by earth fault detection function with
directional element enabled in grounded network.
43
5.5. DIRECTION DETECTION
Direction detection is to restrict fault indication only on faults to a designated side of the
Recloser. By using this function, the fault indication can respond only to fault currents from
main source, not from dispersed sources in consumer area of the distribution line. As a
result, the faulted section in the line can be discriminated precisely.
Positive sequence voltage and current are used to detect the direction of phase fault. And
zero sequence voltage and current are used to detect the direction of ground fault. The
following picture describes the angular relationship between sequence voltage and current.
The final decision of direction is from the combination of two elements. Thresholds are used
to avoid to get wrong direction due to small sequence values.
44
The following picture shows the phasor diagram of 3 phase voltages and currents of
single-phase earth fault situation in grounded network. In the example, the zero sequence
current (3Io) is produced dominantly by A-phase fault current. It shows the maximum
torque angle 330o is proper to decide the fault direction.
Positive sequence voltage (V1) and current (I1) are used for phase-to-phase fault with
same principle as -3Vo and 3Io.
Figure 5-10 Phasor diagram for single-phase earth fault in grounded system
Negative Phase Sequence detection is an additional over current element and allows more
reliable detection of unbalanced load condition such as broken conductor.

45
5.7. OPEN LINE DETECTION (LOSS OF PHASE)
When the voltage on one or two phases drops below the ‘Volt OFF Level’ setting, the
‘Delay Time’ starts running. If the voltage on those phases stays below ‘Volt OFF Level’
setting until the ‘Delay Time’ timer expires, the Loss of Phase will be detected.
If the voltage on detected phase rises to the ‘Volt ON Level’ setting, the Loss of Phase is
released immediately.
FTU-R200 monitors the phase angle difference between source and load side voltages of
Recloser. If the angle difference is larger than the setting and maintains longer than the set
time, then alarm is generated. The alarm is useful to close Recloser safely which is installed
at the tie point of two feeders from the separated substation. The result of phase
synchronization check can be used for interlocking close operation by setting. (Please refer
to “Close interlock” in the configurations.)

5.13. ANALOG ALARM
The FTU has five configurable alarm analogue types: phase current, ground current,
negative phase sequence current, and phase voltage and system power. Each analogue type
has a configurable high alarm value as well as a configurable low alarm value.
If an analogue value passes the alarm threshold the binary alarm will become active. If,
after a HI Alarm, all analogues of the same type are below the high alarm reset threshold
then the HI binary alarm will be turned off. If, after LOW Alarm, analogues of the same type
are above the low alarm reset threshold and all other, then the LOW binary alarm will be
turned off.
49
5.14. MULTIPLE SETTING GROUPS
The FTU-R200 supports up to 4 Setting Groups, each of which can be configured with
completely separate characteristics with different setting parameters. One of setting groups
can be assigned to be used as parameters of functions for forward or reverse power flow
condition respectively.
And FTU-R200 supports Automatic Setting Group Selection which is used to change the
setting group depending on the direction of power flow automatically.

5.15. LOOP AUTOMATION SCHEME
While recloser is used as tie breaker and the function “OT(Open Tie) closing” is enabled,
recloser can be closed automatically when one side of recloser is deenergized. The
parameter “OT Source Side”in the following table indicates source side.
“OT Source Side” =”BOTH” : If any side of recloser is deenergized and sustained during
“OT Closing Time”, recloser will be closed automatically
When only RST side of recloser isdeenergized, recloser will be closed. Thus the source
from ABC side will energize the distribution line.
When only ABC side of recloser isdeenergized, recloser will be closed. Thus the source
from RST side will energize the distribution line.
Recloser has also auto-sectionalizing function. If the function is enabled (“Section On”),
recloser will open automatically after “Section Open time” when the line is deenergized with
closed.

6. CONFIGURATION SETTING
6.1.1. AC RATING
“Line Configuration” shall be set according to the power system grounding. The
parameter will affect the calculation of 3-phase total harmonic distortion.
“System Frequency” shall be set correctly. If it is set wrongly, the measurement can’t be
performed properly.
“Rated Voltage” is the rated line-to-line voltage of power system. This parameter is the
reference for voltage monitoring such as undervoltage protection, sag, swell, etc.
52
“Reference Phase” : This parameter makes change of phase denotation of 3-phase
voltages and currents input terminal of FTU. For example, if the parameter is set with “B”, B
terminal of voltage and current inputs is for A-phase measurement. C is for B-phase. A is for
C.
“CT direction”/”NCT direction : Using this parameter, the polarity of current transformer
can be compensated.
“Phase Rotation” shall be set with “A-C-B” when the transposed line is connected to
recloser. It’s important because it affects the sequence component calculation of 3 phase
voltages and currents.
The FTU calculates and stores average of currents and active, reactive powers during the
demand interval, which is configurable as 15, 30 or 60 minutes. Please refer to the
description of the demand function in section 8.
53
6.1.4. ENERGY PROFILE
Energy and peak demand data will be stored monthly or weekly as profile.
“Profile Type”
- Weekly : FTU will store energy data and peak data weekly at noon of “Demand Reset
Day”.
- Monthly : FTU will store energy data and peak data monthly at noon of “Demand
Reset Date”.
- Manual : FI is latched until FI reset button on the front panel is pressed or the reset
command is issued from master station or maintenance software.
- Auto : When the line (voltage) is restored without fault current (pickup), FI will be reset
2 second after. Manual reset also is allowed in this mode.
non-zero : FI will be reset automatically in the set time after FI was indicated at any
condition regardless of “FI Reset select”.
54
The following close interlock conditions can be enabled or disabled.
When the close command is issued manually or automatically, the interlock condition will
be checked before closing. So live load or phase sync. failure between both sides voltages
will block the close operation if the condition is enabled with “Yes”. “Live Load” status
means that both sides of recloser contact are energized. If the condition is enabled, the
closing operation would be allowed while at least one side of recloser is deenergized. Sync.
failure condition will be effective only when “Live Load” is disabled. It means that at “Live-
Live” condition FTU will check the status of “Phase Synch. Check” function for secure
closing.
FTU shows 3-phase currents and voltages on LCD. The voltage values displayed on this
summarized measurements can be selected through setting with phase voltages or line-to-
line voltages.
I a : 0 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 . 0 / 0 0 . 0
I b : 0 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 . 0 / 0 0 . 0
I c : 0 0 0 0 0 A 0 0 . 0 / 0 0 . 0
I n : 0 0 0 0 0 A < A B C . R S T >
55
Checking Time (Hour) 0~23 0 1 Hour
“Checking Cycle” : Test period (unit: days), “0” : automatic checking is disabled.
“Checking Time (Hour)”, “Checking Time (Min)” : The time which the test function is
executed.
- Trip Indicator : 3-stage OC & EF elements indicates their starting(fault pickup) status
when trip output is initiated from any phase element. (* indicates only operating
status of each phase element in the firmware earlier than V3.03)
- Fault Passage Indicator : When line is de-energized after pickup before operating of
OC elements, FTU will indicates FI with started OC status. When FTU outputs trip by
OC or E/F elements, FPI will operate same as “Trip Indicator”. FPI without trip also
will produce fault current event with started phase marked and record fault waveform.
FPI without trip will make starting event, but no operating event.
FTU-R200 supports delayed closing for manual close operation through the button on
the front panel or FTUMan. It allows time for local operator to exit the Recloser
perimeter).

6.2. POWER QUALITY MONITORING FUNCTION
Voltage Unbalance
Current Unbalance
6.2.2.1. SAG
A sag (also known as dip) is a reduction to between 0.5 and 0.99 pu in RMS voltage or
current at the power frequency for a short period of time from 0.5 to 10 cycles. A 10% sag is
considered an event during which the RMS voltage decreased by 10% to 0.9 pu. Voltage sags
are widely recognized as among the most common and important aspects of power quality
problems affecting industrial and commercial customers. They are particularly troublesome.
Since they occur randomly and are difficult to predict.
Voltage sags are normally associated with system faults on the distribution system,
sudden increase in system loads, lightning strikes or starting of large load like induction
motors. It is not possible to eliminate faults on a system. One of the most common causes of
faults occurring on high-voltage transmission systems is a lightning strike. When there is a
57
fault caused by a lightning strike, the voltage can sag to 50% of the standard range and can
last from four to seven cycles. Most loads will be tripped off when encounter this type of
voltage level. Possible effect of voltage sags would be system shutdown or reduce efficiency
and life span of electrical equipment, particularly motors.
Equipment sensitivity to voltage sag occurs randomly and has become the most serious
power quality problem affecting many industries and commercial customers presently. An
industrial monitoring program determined an 87% voltage disturbances could be associate
to voltage sags. Most of the fault on the utility transmission and distribution system are
single line-to-ground faults (SLGF).
6.2.2.2. SWELL
58
6.2.2.3. INTERRUPTION
An interruption occurs when there is a reduction of the supply voltage or load current to
between 0.1 and 0.49 pu for duration from 0.5 to 10 cycles. Possible causes would be circuit
breakers responding to overload, lightning and faults. Interruptions are the result of
equipment failures, power system faults and control malfunctions. They are characterized
by their duration as the voltage magnitude is always less than 10% of the nominal. The
duration of an interruption can be irregular when due to equipment malfunctions or loose
connections. The duration of an interruption due to a fault on the utility system is
determined by the utility protective devices operating time.

7. STATUS MONITORING & CONTROL
FTU has 10 binary inputs. These inputs can be assigned to monitor switch open/close, gas
and lock status of switch (Recloser) body through auxiliary contacts. FTU scans these
contacts input every 5 milliseconds. Switch open/close status is determined by double
binary inputs, normally open and closed contacts. All input status are shown on LCD or
FTUMan and are transmitted to master station on its request. Changed status can be
transmitted unsolicitedly with or without time and are recorded on non-volatile memory as
events with time tag in history buffer orderly. For each contact input, on-delay time can be
applied. It’s adjustable within 10~500ms by 5ms step. The time is used to debounce the
contact input and suppress unnecessary events. And each input can be used to affect control
action, block open or close control, or force to trip or close main switch or recloser.The
following picture is an example window of I/O configuration tool. Here the name for each
input can be configured. Configured name is shown also on LCD display. Invert mask can be
used to invert the active state of the corresponding input.
65
7.2. SWITCH CONTROL
FTU has 4 binary contacts output and 2 high-speed output command. These output are
used to control Switch or output alarms.
Switch (Recloser) can be controlled from remote or local operator place. Operator place
can be changed only at local front panel. ‘REMOTE CONTROL’ push button is to select the
operator place. Operator place is toggled between local and remote by pushing button. LED
is lit if remote position is selected. FTU begins with remote position at power-up. Control is
allowed only at the position selected.
Local switch control requires two-step operation. It’s for security of operation. ‘SELECT’
button should be pushed before ‘CLOSE’ or ‘OPEN’. SELECT LED is lit if SELECT operation
is valid. SELECT can be canceled by pushing SELECT button again or automatically after
SBO timeout without operation. CLOSE or OPEN operation is valid while this LED is lit.
Pushing CLOSE or OPEN button outputs switch control signal with fixed time pulse which
is configurable. Switch status change input which is auxiliary contacts of switch stops
continuing to output pulse. There are some interlock conditions to inhibit FTU from
outputting pulse signal.
Gas low, Switch handle lock, same status of switch auxiliary contacts ‘a’, ‘b’ are those. And
there is “control lock” button. Control lock mode inhibits switch operation and reclosing
after tripping a fault. So it’s useful as “Work tag” when the maintenance work is being done.
The status is toggled when the button is pushed.
Close or open pulse width shall be set longer than switch operating time.
66
7.3. BATTERY & BATTERY CHARGER MONITORING
FTU monitors external Lead-acid battery through the control unit, which are mounted on
inner back-side wall of control box. The control unit contains microprocessor based battery
charger. It measures battery terminal voltage and charging voltage. So it can check charger
over-voltage and battery fail or battery low status while external AC supply is off. So it
provides battery voltage values and alarm status which is the result of continuous check.
Provided information details are like the followings.
- Battery low
The conrol unit has also the over-discharge protection. If over-discharge condition
occurred, the control unit sends alarm signal “Battery Low” to RTU and disconnect battery
in order to protect battery cell damage after 1-minute delay. The delay enables RTU to send
alarm state to remote station via communication.
67
8. MEASUREMENTS
FTU-R200 has 4 currents and 6 voltages input. DSP digitizes these signals using 16 bits
A/D converter and calculates various electric quantities numerically from those digitized
data. As a result, FTU gives true RMS, all power and energy values for 3-phase voltages and
currents. FTU presents also phasor quantities calculated through fundamenatal power
frequency components extracted by FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) algorithm. FFT is
performed every millisecond using 128 samples for 1 cycle. True RMS is calculated every
cycle. All electrical quantities are provided with the average value for 200ms (10cycle for
50Hz, 12cycle for 60Hz). Analog filters and digital filters are used to minimize the effects of
high frequency noise in the input signals. And the calibration is performed in the factory
before delivery using precise current and voltage signal generator. The calibration
compensates the measurements error caused by the components in the circuit of input.
Provided electric quantities are listed in the following.
Currents (Ia, Ib, Ic, In) RMS, Phase Angle, True RMS
Voltage (Va, Vb, Vc, Vr, Vs, Vt) RMS, Phase Angle, True RMS
Frequency, Temperature
In the above items listed, active power, reactive power values are signed integer. Sign
represents power flow or if loads are inductive or capacitive. Also power factor has lead/lag
state value separately.
Currents and voltages have phase angles, which are relative phase angles compared to the
reference Va. These angles are useful to monitor the phase sequence and imbalance of
distribution line.
68
8.2. SEQUENCE COMPONENTS
FTU provides the sequence components of 3-phase currents and voltages. They are
positive sequence current (I1) and voltage (V1), negative sequence current (I2) and voltage
(V2), and zero sequence voltage (V0) which are calculated by 3-phase phasor quantities. This
information can be used to monitor imbalance of distribution line.
8.3. HARMONICS
FTU provides 2nd to 31st harmonic magnitudes and THDs (Total Harmonic Distortion)
for each phase. THD is the total harmonic percentage to the fundamental frequency
component. FTU also calculates and provides 3-phase THD. These values may be used to
monitor the power quality of distribution line.
8.4. ENERGY
FTU provides active energy, reactive energy for each phase or 3-phase total. Also import,
export energy are accumulated on separate registers. Units of energy are kWh, kVarh, which
represent primary distribution line energy flow. The values are accumulated on 32-bit and
16-bit kWh, kVarh counters which rollovers. The 32-bit register is for local display and the
16-bit register is to transmit energy data to SCADA like the following picture.
Normally in order to accumulate energy values, SCADA system reads 16-bit energy
counter in FTU periodically and calculates increments between two readings and adds the
increments to energy register in SCADA. DNP3.0 or IEC protocol supports the function of
counter objects to accumulate energy value easily. For example “freeze and clear” function
is useful to accumulate energy pulse increments.
69
Reactive energy is also accumulated on separate registers according to the quadrant of
power like the following figure 8-2. So 24 energy counters are provided as in the figure 8-3.
70
Figure 8-3 Energy counters
FTU supports block demand and rolling demand. If block and rolling interval are same,
FTU calculates demand values based on block interval. It is block demand mode. For rolling
demand, rolling interval will be subinterval within block interval. So FTU calculates
demand values based on N rolling intervals every rolling interval. Here N is the value
corresponding to block interval devided by rolling interval. Types of demand values are
phase currents and active, reactive powers.
For example, suppose that block interval is 15min. and rolling interval is 5min. In this
case, rolling demand values are calculated every 5min based on the data during most
recent 15min.
71
Figure 8-4 block demand and rolling demand
The demand values are recorded up to 6143 intervals. The length corresponds to 63 days
based on 15 min. demand. Also peak demand values are recorded daily up to 1023 days. And
weekly or monthly data are recorded through automatic demand reset according to settings
up to 63 amounts. Manual reset also is available. Weekly/monthly data contains the
following information. All energy and power data are saved with each phase and 3-phase
total data.

8.6. INTERRUPTER DUTY MONITOR
FTU shows the estimated life of the interrupter contact through calculation using trip
current. The function gives the remaining counts for interrupter to trip at 1 kA. And
FTUMan shows the curve of the interrupter duty. The allowable trip counts at 1kA will be
decreased by ( I_trip(kA))2
