4.1 Factory and site acceptance testing GUID-38C2B5FA-9210-4D85-BA21-39CE98A1A84A v2
Testing the proper IED operation is carried out at different occasions, for example:
• Acceptance testing
• Commissioning testing
• Maintenance testing
This manual describes the workflow and the steps to carry out the commissioning testing.
Factory acceptance testing (FAT) is typically done to verify that the IED and its corresponding
configuration meet the requirements of the utility or industry. This test is the most complex
and in depth, as it is done to familiarize the user with a new product or to verify a new
configuration. The complexity of this testing depends on several factors, such as:
• New IED type

• New configuration
• Modified configuration
Site acceptance testing (SAT or commissioning testing) is typically done to verify that the
installed IED is correctly set and connected to the power system. SAT requires that the
acceptance testing has been performed and that the application configuration is verified.
Maintenance testing is a periodic verification that the IED is healthy and has correct settings,
depending on changes in the power system. There are also other types of maintenance
testing.
4.2 Commissioning checklist GUID-93D14E4E-5DDE-4D37-84A6-2DF0656AB73D v3
Before starting up commissioning at site, check that the following items are available.
• Single line diagram

• Protection block diagram
• Circuit diagram
• Setting list and configuration
• RJ-45 Ethernet cable (CAT 5)
• Three-phase test kit or other test equipment depending on the complexity of the
configuration and functions to be tested.
• PC with PCM600 installed along with the connectivity packages corresponding to the IEDs
to be tested.
• Administration rights on the PC, to set up IP addresses
• Product documentation (engineering manual, installation manual, commissioning manual,
operation manual, technical manual and communication protocol manual)

Starting up
4.3 Checking the power supply M11725-2 v4.1.1
Insert only the corresponding male connector to the female connector.

Inserting anything else (such as a measurement probe) may violate the female
connector and prevent a proper electrical contact between the printed circuit
board and the external wiring connected to the screw terminal block.
Check that the auxiliary supply voltage remains within the permissible input voltage range
under all operating conditions. Check that the polarity is correct before powering the IED.
Table 1: Supervision Power Supply

Battery Supervision BATS Logic Led Battery VS+ (output voltage)
Station Battery Output Ready VS+ Supervision VS+ Output
Active Active 1 On > 15.1 V > 33.5 V
Active 0 Off < 14.6 V > 33.5 V
Active 0 On > 15.1 V < 32.9 V
0 Off < 14.6 V < 32.9 V
4.4 Energizing the IED
4.4.1 Checking the IED operation M11726-2 v6
Check all connections to external circuitry to ensure correct installation, before energizing the
IED and carrying out the commissioning procedures.
Energize the power supply of the IED to start it up. This could be done in a number of ways,
from energizing a whole cubicle to energizing a single IED. Set the IED time if no time
synchronization source is configured. Check the self-supervision function in Main menu/
Diagnostics/Internal events or Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/General menu in local
HMI to verify that the IED is functioning properly.
4.4.2 IED start-up sequence M11727-3 v9
The following sequence is expected when the IED is energized.
• The green Ready LED starts flashing instantly and the ABB logo is shown on the LCD.
• After approximately 30 seconds, "Starting" is shown on the LCD.
• Within 90 seconds, the main menu is shown on the LCD and the green Ready LED shows a
steady light, which indicates a successful startup.
The startup time depends on the size of the application configuration.

Application configurations with less functionality have shorter startup times.
If the green Ready LED continues to flash after startup, the IED has detected an internal error.
Navigate via Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/General to investigate the error description.

Starting up
4.5 Setting up communication between PCM600 and the

IED SEMOD58570-5 v9
The communication between the IED and PCM600 is independent of the communication
protocol used within the substation or to the NCC.
The communication media is always Ethernet and the used protocol is TCP/IP.
Each IED has an RJ-45 Ethernet interface connector on the front. The front Ethernet connector
shall be used for communication with PCM600..
When an Ethernet-based station protocol is used, PCM600 communication can use the same
Ethernet port and IP address.
To connect PCM600 to the IED, two basic variants must be considered.
• Direct point-to-point link between PCM600 and the IED front port.
• Indirect link via a station LAN or from remote via a network.
The physical connection and the IP address must be configured in both cases to enable
communication.
The communication procedures are the same in both cases.
1. If needed, set the IP address for the IEDs.

2. Set up the PC or workstation for a direct link (point-to-point), or
3. Connect the PC or workstation to the LAN/WAN network.
4. Configure the IED IP addresses in the PCM600 project for each IED to match the IP
addresses of the physical IEDs.
Setting up IP addresses
The IP address and the corresponding mask must be set via the LHMI for each available
Ethernet interface in the IED. Each Ethernet interface has a default factory IP address when the
IED is delivered. This is not given when an additional Ethernet interface is installed or an
interface is replaced.
• The default IP address for the IED front port is 10.1.150.3 and the corresponding
subnetwork mask is 255.255.255.0, which can be set via the local HMI path Main menu/
Configuration/Communication/TCP-IP configuration/ETHFRNT:1.
Setting up the PC or workstation for point-to-point access to IEDs front

port
A special cable is needed to connect two physical Ethernet interfaces together without a hub,
router, bridge or switch in between. The Tx and Rx signal wires must be crossed in the cable to
connect Tx with Rx on the other side and vice versa. These cables are known as cross over
cables. The maximum length is 2 m. The connector type is RJ-45.

Figure 2: Point-to-point link between IED and PCM600 using a null-modem cable
The following description is an example valid for standard PCs using Microsoft Windows
operating system. The example is taken from a Laptop with one Ethernet interface.
Administrator rights are required to change the PC communication setup.

Some PCs have the feature to automatically detect that Tx signals from the IED
are received on the Tx pin on the PC. Thus, a straight (standard) Ethernet cable
can be used.
When a PC is connected to the IED and the setting DHCPServer is set to On via the local HMI
path Main menu/Configuration/Communication/TCP-IP configuration/ETHFRNT:1/
DHCPServer, the IEDs DHCP server for the front port assigns an IP address for the PC. The PC
must be configured to obtain its IP address automatically as described in the following
procedure.
1. Select Search programs and files in the Start menu in Windows.

Starting up

5. Select Obtain an IP address automatically if the parameter DHCPServer is set to On in the
IED.
Figure 7: Select: Obtain an IP address automatically

6. Select Use the following IP address and define IP address and Subnet mask if the front
port is used and if the IP address is not set to be obtained automatically by the IED, see
Figure 8. The IP address must be different from the IP address chosen for the IED.

Starting up
Figure 8: Select: Use the following IP address

7. Close all open windows and start PCM600.
Setting up the PC to access the IED via a network

This task depends on the used LAN/WAN network.
The PC and IED must belong to the same subnetwork for this set-up to work.
4.6 Writing an application configuration to the IED M11734-2 v5
Ensure that the IED includes the correct application configuration according to
project specifications.
The application configuration is created using PCM600 and then written to the IED. Establish a
connection between PCM600 and the IED when an application configuration must be written
to the IED.
After writing an application configuration to the IED, the IED makes an application restart or a
complete IED restart, when necessary.
The IED does not restart after reconfiguring IEC61850 (regardless of whether
the protocol is enabled or disabled).
Be sure to set the correct technical key in both the IED and PCM600 to prevent
writing an application configuration to a wrong IED.

Starting up
See the engineering manual for information on how to create or modify an

application configuration and how to write to the IED.
4.7 Checking CT circuits M12182-2 v13
Check that the wiring is in strict accordance with the supplied connection
diagram.
• Primary injection test to verify the current ratio of the CT, the correct wiring up to the
protection IED and correct phase sequence connection (that is L1, L2, L3.)
• CT secondary loop resistance measurement to confirm that the current transformer
secondary loop DC resistance is within specification and that there are no high resistance
joints in the CT winding or wiring.
• Earthing check of the individual CT secondary circuits to verify that each three-phase set
of main CTs is properly connected to the station earth and only at one electrical point.
• Insulation resistance check.
CT and VT connectors are pre-coded, and the CT and VT connector markings

are different. For more information, see the installation manual.
Both the primary and the secondary sides must be disconnected from the line
and the IED when plotting the excitation characteristics.
4.8 Checking VT circuits M11724-2 v8
Check that the wiring is in strict accordance with the supplied connection diagram.
Correct possible errors before continuing to test the circuitry.
Test the circuitry.
• Polarity check
• VT circuit voltage measurement (primary injection test)
• Earthing check
• Phase relationship
• Insulation resistance check
The polarity check verifies the integrity of circuits and the phase relationships. The check must
be performed as close to the IED as possible.
The primary injection test verifies the VT ratio and the wiring all the way from the primary
system to the IED. Injection must be performed for each phase-to-neutral circuit and each
phase-to-phase pair. In each case, voltages in all phases and neutral are measured.

Starting up
4.9 Using the RTXP test switch GUID-F1E29C06-7FE8-44D8-AD5A-EE8990A2AA41 v3
The RTXP test switch is designed to provide the means of safe testing of the IED. This is
achieved by the electromechanical design of the test switch and test plug handle. When the
test plug handle is inserted, it first blocks the trip and alarm circuits then it short circuits the
CT secondary circuit and opens the VT secondary circuits making the IED available for
secondary injection.
When pulled out, the test handle is mechanically stopped in half withdrawn position. In this
position, the current and voltage enter the protection, but the alarm and trip circuits are still
isolated. Before removing the test handle, check that no trip or alarms are present in the IED.
Not until the test handle is completely removed, the trip and alarm circuits are restored for
operation.
Verify that the contact sockets have been crimped correctly and that they are
fully inserted by tugging on the wires. Never do this with current circuits in
service.
Current circuit
1. Verify that the contacts are of current circuit type.

2. Verify that the short circuit jumpers are located in the correct slots.
Voltage circuit
1. Verify that the contacts are of voltage circuit type.

2. Check that no short circuit jumpers are located in the slots dedicated for voltage.
Trip and alarm circuits
1. Check that the correct types of contacts are used.
4.10 Checking binary input and output circuits

GUID-231F80F2-B09C-47B0-BB25-7DF412B7A2E5 v1
Insert only the corresponding male connector to the female connector.

Inserting anything else (such as a measurement probe) may violate the female
connector and prevent a proper electrical contact between the printed circuit
board and the external wiring connected to the screw terminal block.
4.10.1 Binary input circuits M11722-4 v3
Preferably, disconnect the binary input connector from the binary input cards. Check all
connected signals so that both input level and polarity are in accordance with the IED
specifications.

Starting up
4.10.2 Binary output circuits M11722-8 v3
Preferably, disconnect the binary output connector from the binary output cards. Check all
connected signals so that both load and polarity are in accordance with IED specifications.
4.11 Checking optical connections M16022-2 v6
Check that the Tx and Rx optical connections are correct.
An IED equipped with optical connections requires a minimum depth of 180

mm for plastic fiber cables and 275 mm for glass fiber cables. Check the
allowed minimum bending radius from the optical cable manufacturer.

Establishing connection and verifying the IEC 61850 station communication
Section 5 Establishing connection and

verifying the IEC 61850 station
communication
5.1 Setting the station communication SEMOD172108-3 v7
To enable IEC 61850 station communication:
• The IEC 61850-8-1 station communication functionality must be on in the local HMI.
Navigate to Main menu/Configuration/Communication/Station communication/
IEC61850-8-1:1 and set the Operation parameter to On.
• To enable GOOSE communication the Operation parameter for the corresponding GOOSE
function blocks (GOOSEBINRCV and GOOSEINTLKRCV) must be set to On in the
application configuration.
• To enable GOOSE communication via the front port the parameter PortSelGOOSE in Main
menu/Configuration/Communication/Station communication/IEC61850-8-1:1 must be
set to Front. To enable GOOSE communication via rear port the parameter PortSelGOOSE
must be set to LAN1.
• To enable MMS communication via the rear port the parameter PortSelMMS in Main
menu/Configuration/Communication/Station communication/IEC61850-8-1:1 must be
set to LAN1.
5.2 Verifying the station communication SEMOD172108-24 v7
Connect your PC to the substation network and ping the connected IED and the Substation
Master PC, to verify that the communication is working (up to the transport layer).
The best way to verify the communication up to the application layer is to use protocol
analyzer connected to the substation bus, and monitor the communication.

Testing IED operation
Section 6 Testing IED operation

6.1 Preparing the IED to verify settings M11741-2 v9
If a test switch is included, start preparation by making the necessary connections to the test
switch. This means connecting the test equipment according to a specific and designated IED
terminal diagram.
Put the IED into the test mode to facilitate the test of individual functions and prevent
unwanted operation caused by other functions. The busbar differential protection is not
included in the test mode and is not prevented to operate during the test operations. The test
switch should then be connected to the IED.
Verify that analog input signals from the analog input module are measured and recorded
correctly by injecting currents and voltages required by the specific IED.
To make testing even more effective, use PCM600. PCM600 includes the Signal monitoring
tool, which is useful in reading the individual currents and voltages, their amplitudes and
phase angles. In addition, PCM600 contains the Disturbance handling tool. The content of
reports generated by the Disturbance handling tool can be configured which makes the work
more efficient. For example, the tool may be configured to only show time tagged events and
to exclude analog information and so on.
Check the disturbance report settings to ensure that the indications are correct.
For test functions and test and signal parameter names, see the technical manual. The correct
initiation of the disturbance recorder is made on start and/or release or trip from a function.
Also check that the wanted recordings of analog (real and calculated) and binary signals are
achieved.
The IEDs in the 650 series can have between 1 and 4 individual parameter setting groups
prepared with full sets of different parameters for all functions. The purpose of these groups
is to be able to handle different power system load conditions to optimize the parameters
settings of the different functions for these different power systems conditions (for example
summer/winter and day/night).
Parameters can be entered into different setting groups. Make sure to test
functions for the same parameter setting group. If needed, repeat the tests for
all different setting groups used. The difference between testing the first
parameter setting group and the remaining is that there is no need for testing
the connections.
During testing, observe that the right testing method, that corresponds to the actual
parameters set in the activated parameter setting group, is used.
In the local HMI the sensitive directional earth fault protection SDEPSDE parameter group 4 is
active indicated by the * next to #4 and the test of the SDEPSDE must be performed according
to the instructions given for the setting OpMode and setting value 3I03U0cosfi.
Set and configure the function(s) before testing. Most functions are highly flexible and permit
a choice of functional and tripping modes. The various modes are checked at the factory as
part of the design verification. In certain cases, only modes with a high probability of coming
into operation need to be checked when commissioned to verify the configuration and
settings.
Requirements for testing the function.

• Calculated settings
• Valid configuration diagram for the IED
• Valid terminal diagram for the IED
• Technical manual
• Three-phase test equipment
Content of the technical manual.
• Application and functionality summaries

• Function blocks
• Logic diagrams
• Input and output signals
• A list of setting parameters
• Technical data for the function
The test equipment should be able to provide a three-phase supply of currents and three-
phase voltage. The magnitude and angle of currents (and voltages) should be possible to vary.
Check that the IED is prepared for test before starting the test session. Consider the logic
diagram of the function when performing the test.
The response from a test can be viewed in different ways.
• Binary output signals

• Service values in the local HMI (logical signal or phasors)
• Using the online mode in the PCM600 configuration software
Do not switch off the auxiliary power supply to the IED before changes, for
example, setting parameter or local/remote control state changes are saved.
A mechanism for limiting the number of writings per time period is included in the IED to
prevent the flash memory to be worn out due to too many writings. As a consequence it may
take up to an hour to save changes. If the auxiliary power is interrupted before a change is
saved, that change is lost.
6.2 Activating the test mode M11412-2 v10
Put the IED into the test mode before testing. The test mode blocks all protection functions
and some of the control functions in the IED, and the individual functions to be tested can be
unblocked to prevent unwanted operation caused by other functions. In this way, it is possible
to test slower back-up measuring functions without the interference from faster measuring
functions. The busbar differential protection is not included in the test mode and is not
prevented to operate during the test operations. The test switch should then be connected to
the IED.Test mode is indicated when the yellow StartLED flashes. The control functions not
blocked when the IED enters test mode are listed in the following table:

1. Select Main menu/Tests/IED test mode/TESTMODE:1

2. Set parameter TestMode to On.
3. Save the changes.
As a consequence, the yellow startLED starts flashing as a reminder and remains flashing
until the test mode is switched off.
6.3 Preparing the connection to the test equipment M11743-2 v7
The IED can be equipped with a test switch of type RTXP8, RTXP18 or RTXP24. The test switch
and its associated test plug handle (RTXH8, RTXH18 or RTXH24) are a part of the COMBITEST
system, which provides secure and convenient testing of the IED.
When using the COMBITEST, preparations for testing are automatically carried out in the
proper sequence, that is, for example, blocking of tripping circuits, short circuiting of CT’s,
opening of voltage circuits, making IED terminals available for secondary injection. Terminals 1
and 8, 1 and 18 as well as 1 and 12 of the test switches RTXP8, RTXP18 and RTXP24 respectively
are not disconnected as they supply DC power to the protection IED.
The RTXH test-plug handle leads may be connected to any type of test equipment or
instrument. When a number of protection IEDs of the same type are tested, the test-plug
handle only needs to be moved from the test switch of one protection IED to the test switch of
the other, without altering the previous connections.
Use COMBITEST test system to prevent unwanted tripping when the handle is withdrawn,
since latches on the handle secure it in the half withdrawn position. In this position, all
voltages and currents are restored and any re-energizing transients are given a chance to
decay before the trip circuits are restored. When the latches are released, the handle can be
completely withdrawn from the test switch, restoring the trip circuits to the protection IED.
If a test switch is not used, perform measurement according to the provided circuit diagrams.
Never disconnect the secondary connection of a current transformer circuit

without first short-circuiting the transformer's secondary winding. Operating a
current transformer with the secondary winding open will cause a massive
potential build up that may damage the transformer and cause personal injury.
6.4 Connecting the test equipment to the IED M11744-2 v7
Connect the test equipment according to the IED specific connection diagram and the needed
input and output signals for the function under test. An example of a connection is shown in
figure 9.

Connect the current and voltage terminals. Pay attention to the current polarity. Make sure
that the connection of input and output current terminals and the connection of the residual
current conductor is correct. Check that the input and output logical signals in the logic
diagram for the function under test are connected to the corresponding binary inputs and
outputs of the IED under test.
To ensure correct results, make sure that the IED as well as the test equipment
are properly earthed before testing.

6.5 Releasing the function to be tested M11413-2 v6
Release or unblock the function to be tested. This is done to ensure that only the function or
the chain of functions to be tested are in operation and that other functions are prevented
from operating. Release the tested function(s) by setting the corresponding Blocked
parameter under Function test modes to No in the local HMI.
When testing a function in this blocking feature, remember that not only the actual function
must be activated, but the whole sequence of interconnected functions (from measuring
inputs to binary output contacts), including logic must be activated. Before starting a new test
mode session, scroll through every function to ensure that only the function to be tested (and
the interconnected ones) have the parameters Blocked and eventually EvDisable set to No and
Yes respectively. Remember that a function is also blocked if the BLOCK input signal on the
corresponding function block is active, which depends on the configuration. Ensure that the
logical status of the BLOCK input signal is equal to 0 for the function to be tested. Event
function blocks can also be individually blocked to ensure that no events are reported to a
remote station during the test. This is done by setting the parameter EvDisable to Yes.

Any function is blocked if the corresponding setting in the local HMI under Main
menu/Tests/Function test modes menu remains On, that is, the parameter
Blocked is set to Yes and the parameter TestMode under Main menu/
Tests/IED test mode remains active. All functions that were blocked or
released in a previous test mode session, that is, the parameter Test mode is
set to On, are reset when a new test mode session is started.
Procedure
1. Click the Function test modes menu.

The Function test modes menu is located in the local HMI under Main menu/Tests/
Function test modes.
2. Browse to the function instance that needs to be released.
3. Set parameter Blocked for the selected function to No.
6.6 Verifying analog primary and secondary measurement M11745-2 v10
Verify that the connections are correct and that measuring and scaling is done correctly. This
is done by injecting current and voltage to the IED.
Apply input signals as needed according to the actual hardware and the
1. Inject a symmetrical three-phase voltage and current at rated value.

2. Compare the injected value with the measured values.
The voltage and current phasor menu in the local HMI is located under Main menu/
Measurements/Analog primary values and Main menu/Measurements/Analog
secondary values.
3. Compare the frequency reading with the set frequency and the direction of the power.
The frequency and active power are located under Main menu/Tests/Function status/
Monitoring/CVMMXN/CVMMXN:1/Outputs. Then navigate to the bottom of the list to
find the frequency.
Check both analog primary and secondary values, because then the CT
and VT ratios entered into the IED are also checked.
These checks shall be repeated for Analog primary values.

4. Inject an unsymmetrical three-phase voltage and current, to verify that phases are
correctly connected.
If some setting deviates, check the analog input settings under
Main menu/Configuration/Analog modules
Measured values such as current and voltages as well as active, reactive and apparent power,
power factor phase angles as well as positive and negative and zero sequence currents and
voltages are available in the local HMI under Main menu/Tests/Function status/Monitoring.
Navigate to the measurement function that contains the quantity to be checked.

Also the Signal Monitoring tool in PCM600 can be used to read the measured values. In many
cases it is more convenient to use PCM600 since, among many things, reports on measured
values can be exported from the Signal Monitoring tool to other tools (for example, MS Excel)
for further analysis.
6.7 Testing the protection functionality GUID-125B6F28-D3E5-4535-9CD6-6C056B79F496 v2
Each protection function must be tested individually by secondary injection.
• Verify operating levels (trip) and timers.

• Verify alarm and blocking signals.
• Use the disturbance handling tool in PCM600 to evaluate that the protection function has
received the correct data and responded correctly (signaling and timing).
• Use the event viewer tool in PCM600 to check that only expected events have occurred.

At commissioning and periodical checks, the functions shall be tested with the used settings.
To test a specific function, it might be necessary to change some setting parameters, for
example:
• AutoEnerg = Off/DLLB/DBLL/Both
• ManEnerg = Off
• Operation = Off/On
• Activation of the voltage selection function if applicable
The tests explained in the test procedures below describe the settings, which can be used as
references during testing before the final settings are specified. After testing, restore the
equipment to the normal or desired settings.
A secondary injection test set with the possibility to alter the phase angle and amplitude of
the voltage is needed. The test set must also be able to generate different frequencies on
different outputs.
The description below applies for a system with a nominal frequency of 50 Hz

but can be directly applicable to 60 Hz. SESRSYN can be set to use different
phases, phase to earth or phase to phase. Use the set voltages instead of what
is indicated below.

• One part to verify its interaction with the protection system
This section deals with verification of SMBRREC itself. However, it is practical to start
SMBRREC by activating a protection function, for example, by secondary injection tests.
settings.
Values of the logical signals for SMBRREC are available on the local HMI under Main menu/
Tests/Function status/Control/SMBRREC(79,0->1)/SMBRREC:X. The Signal Monitoring in
The purpose of verification before commissioning is to check that entered selections, setting
parameters and configuration render the intended result. The function is flexible with many
options and facilities. At commissioning only the selections and settings intended for use are
verified. If one chooses to reduce some time settings in order to speed up verification, be
careful to set the parameters at intended operational values at the end of the verification
procedure. One such parameter is the tReclaim time that must be timed out before a new test
sequence can be performed.
The verification test is performed together with protection and trip functions. Figure 17
illustrates a suggested testing arrangement, where the circuit-breaker (CB) is simulated by an
external bi-stable relay (BR), for example a relay type RXMVB2 or RXMD or Breaker Simulator of
ABB. The following manual switches are used:
• Switch or push-button to close (SC)

• Switch or push-button to trip (ST)
• Switch for CB ready condition (SRY)
If no bi-stable relay or breaker simulator is available, replace it with two self-reset auxiliary
relays and use a self-holding connection.
Use a secondary injection IED test set to operate the protection function. The test set shall be
switched off when a trip signal is given or when the BR comes to open position to simulate real
conditions.
The CB simulation can be made more elaborate, including simulation of the operating gear
condition, CBREADY of either the type ready for a Close-Open (CO) cycle, or the type ready for
an Open-Close -Open (OCO) cycle.
The CB condition CBREADY of a type, CO, shall be high (true) until a closing operation is
performed. It then goes low (false) for a recharging time of about 5 - 10s. After that it is high
again.
A CB condition CBREADY of a type, OCO shall be high (true) before and during tripping (Start
reclosing). During tripping it goes low for a recharging time, for example, 10s. It may thus be
low at the instant of reclosing. After each Open or Close operation it may need a recharging
period before it goes high again.
In the example of CB simulation arrangement, the CBREADY condition is simulated by a

manual switch, SRY.

manual switches
7.7.2.1 Preparation of the verification M12400-40 v6
1. Check the function settings on the local HMI under Main menu/Settings/IED Settings/
Control/SMBRREC(79,0->1)/SMBRREC:1
If any timer settings are reduced to speed up or facilitate the testing, they shall be set to
normal after testing. A temporary label on the IED can be a reminder to restore normal
settings after which a verification test should be performed.
2. Decide if a synchronizing check function SESRSYN shall be included in the test.
If SESRSYN as an internal function or external device is not operated by the injection,
input signal SYNC must be connected as a permanent high signal or controlled by a
switch.
3. Read and make notes of the reclosing operation counters on the local HMI under Main
menu/Tests/Function status/Control/SMBRREC(79,0->1)/SMBRREC:1
Possibly reset the counters to Zero. Counters are reset in the reset menu.
4. Make arrangements for the simulation of the CB, for example as in figure 17.
5. Make arrangements for indication, recording and time measurements.
The signals for CBPOS, START, CLOSECB, READY and other relevant signals should
preferably be arranged for event recording with time tagging. If that is not possible,
other means of time measurement and recording should be arranged.
7.7.2.2 Switching the autorecloser for 3-phase operation function to On and Off M12400-79 v5
1. Set the Operation setting to Off and check the state.

2. Set the Operation setting to On and check the state, including SETON and READY.

The CB should be closed and ready.

3. If external control Off/On is connected, check that it works.
Set Operation to ExternalCtrl and use that control to switch On and Off, and check the
state of the function.
7.7.2.3 Verifying the autorecloser for 3-phase operation function SMBRREC M12400-91 v9
Select the test cases to be run according to what is applicable to the particular application. It
can be, for example, three-phase single-shot reclosing or two-shot reclosing. Below, a case
with three-phase single-shot reclosing is described.
1. Set Operation = On.

2. If the autorecloser for 3-phase operation function SMBRREC is not to be operated, ensure
that the SMBRREC input is activated. If SMBRRECis to be included, ensure that it is
supplied with the appropriate AC quantities.
3. Simulate CB closed position by closing switch SC to make the BR relay start.
4. Simulate CBREADY by closing the switch SRY, and leave it closed.
5. Inject AC quantities to give a trip to the BR and to the START input.
Observe and preferably record the operation. The BR relay shall trip and reclose (start).
After reclosing, the SRY switch can be opened for about 5s and then closed again.
The autoreclosing open time and the sequence should be checked, for example in the
event recording. Check also the operation indications (disturbance report) and the
operation counters on the local HMI under Main menu/Tests/Function status/
SMBRREC(79,0->1)/SMBRREC:1
Should the operation not be as expected, this should be investigated. It could be caused
by an inappropriate setting or missing condition such as CBREADY.
6. Repeat the sequence by simulating a permanent fault.
Shortly after the reclosing shot, a new fault is applied. If a single-shot reclosing program
is selected, there shall be one reclosing operation and then blocking of SMBRREC for the
set Reclaim time.
Before a new reclosing sequence can be run, the CBREADY and CBPOS (CB closed) must
be set manually.
7.7.2.4 Checking the reclosing conditions M12400-123 v4
When checking the influence of a releasing condition it is suggested to first run a sequence
with the condition fulfilled. When the condition signal is removed, and a new sequence is run, it
indicates that the result was due to the changed condition. In case of a blocking signal the
procedure should be similar. Start without the blocking or inhibit signal, and then run a
sequence with the blocking or inhibit signal added.
Checking the influence of the INHIBIT signal M12400-129 v4
1. Check that the autorecloser function SMBRREC is operative, for example, by making a
reclosing shot without the INHIBIT signal.
2. Apply a fault and thereby a START signal. At the same time, or during the open time,
apply a signal to the input INHIBIT.
3. Check that the reclosing sequence is interrupted and no reclosing takes place.
Check closing onto a fault M12400-137 v4
1. Check that the autorecloser function SMBRREC is operative, for example by making a
reclosing shot.

Keep the CBREADY signal high.

2. Set the breaker simulating relay BR in Open position.
3. Close the BR relay and apply immediately a fault and thereby a START signal.
4. Check that no reclosing takes place.
Checking the influence of CB not ready for reclosing M12400-149 v4
1. Check that the autorecloser function SMBRREC is operative, for example by making a
reclosing shot.
Keep the CB simulator BR closed. Remove the CBREADY signal by opening SRY.
2. Apply a fault and thereby a START signal.
3. Check that no reclosing takes place.
Checking the influence of synchronizing check (at three-phase reclosing) M12400-161 v7
1. Check that the autorecloser for 3-phase operation function SMBRREC is operative, for
example, by making a three-phase reclosing shot with the synchronizing check condition.
Remove the SMBRREC signal.
2. Apply a fault causing three-phase trip and thereby a START signal.
3. Wait for the tSync time out limit.
Check that no reclosing is made.
Restoring equipment M12400-190 v4

After the tests, restore the equipment to normal or desired state. Check the following items in
particular:
1. Check the operation counters.

Reset the counters to zero, if that is the user's preference. The counter reset function is
found on the local HMI under Main menu/Clear/Clear counters/SMBRREC(79,0->1)
2. Restore settings that may have been modified for the tests back to normal.
3. Disconnect the test switch, CB simulating arrangement and test circuits.
Reconnect any links or connection terminals, which may have been opened for the tests.
4. Reset indications, alarms and disturbance recordings.
Clearing of the disturbance report must be done via the Disturbance Handling in
PCM600.

settings.
Values of the logical signals are available on the local HMI under Main menu/Tests/Function
status/Control/<Function>/<Function:1>. The Signal Monitoring in PCM600 shows the same
signals that are available on the local HMI.
The interlocking function consists of a bay-level part and a station-level part. The interlocking
is delivery specific and is realized by bay-to-bay communication over the station bus. For that

reason, test the function in a system, that is, either in a complete delivery system as an
acceptance test (FAT/SAT) or as parts of that system.
7.7.4 Apparatus control APC M13385-2 v4
The apparatus control function consists of four types of function blocks, which are connected
in a delivery-specific way between bays and to the station level. For that reason, test the total
function in a system, that is, either in a complete delivery system as an acceptance test (FAT/
SAT) or as parts of that system.
If a block/unblock command is sent from remote to function, while the IED is

shut down, this command will not be recognized after the start up, thus the
command that was sent prior to the shut down is used. In such cases, where
there is a mismatch, the user is advised to make a complete cycle of block/
unblock operations to align the statuses.

settings.
Values of the logical signals for SMPPTRC are available on the local HMI under Main menu/
Tests/Function status/Logic/SMPPTRC(94,1->0)/SMPPTRC:X. The Signal Monitoring in
This function is functionality tested together with other protection functions (earth-fault
overcurrent protection, and so on) within the IED. It is recommended that the function is
tested together with the autorecloser function, regardless of whether the autorecloser
function is integrated or external.
7.9.1.1 Three-phase operating mode SEMOD54375-106 v8
1. Check that AutoLock and TripLockout are both set to Off.

2. Initiate a three-phase fault.
An adequate time interval between the faults should be considered, to overcome a
reclaim time caused by the possible activation of the Autorecloser function, SMBRREC.
The function must issue a three-phase trip in all cases, when a trip is initiated by any
protection function, either integrated or external. The functional TRIP output signal must
always appear.
7.9.1.2 Circuit breaker lockout SEMOD54375-170 v9
The following tests should be carried out when the built-in lockout function is used in addition
to possible other tests, which depends on the complete configuration of an IED.

1. Check that AutoLock and TripLockout are both set to Off.

2. Initiate a three-phase fault.
The functional output TRIP should be active at each fault. The output CLLKOUT must not
be activated.
3. Activate the automatic lockout function, set AutoLock = On and repeat.
Besides the TRIP outputs, CLLKOUT should be set.
4. Reset the lockout signal by activating the reset lockout (RSTLKOUT) signal.
5. Activate the TRIP signal lockout function, set TripLockout = On and repeat.
The output TRIP must be active and stay active after each fault. CLLKOUT must be
activated.
6. Reset the lockout.
All functional outputs should reset.
7. Deactivate the TRIP signal lockout function, set TripLockout = Off and the automatic
lockout function, set AutoLock = Off if not used.

7.10.1 Event counter CNTGGIO M13419-2 v4
The event counter function CNTGGIO can be tested by connecting a binary input to the counter
under test and applying pulses to the counter. The speed of pulses must not exceed 10 per
second. Normally the counter will be tested in connection with tests on the function that the
counter is connected to, such as trip logic. When configured, test it together with the function
that operates it. Trig the function and check that the counter result corresponds with the
number of operations.
7.10.2 Limit counter L4UFCNT GUID-E35C0EBD-081E-4EC2-9DE9-D276DBA8354A v1
The Limit counter function L4UFCNT can be tested by connecting a binary input to the counter
and applying pulses to the counter. The speed of the pulses must not exceed the cycle time of
the function. Normally the counter will be tested when testing the function that the counter is
connected to, such as the trip function. When the function is configured, test it together with
the function that operates it. Trig the function and check that the counter result corresponds
to the number of operations.
7.10.2.1 Completing the test GUID-8E1A0F3F-0611-4AF4-9FE4-63E750AE90C3 v1

settings.
Values of the logical signals for LMBRFLO are available on the local HMI under Main menu/
Tests/Function status/Monitoring/LMBRFLO/LMBRFLO:1. The Signal Monitoring in PCM600
The Fault locator function LMBRFLO depends on other functions to work properly, that is,
phase selection information from distance protection function and analog information
supplied by the trip value recorder function. Check that proper binary start and phase
selection signals are connected and voltage and current signals are configured (parameter
settings).
The fault locator LMBRFLO function, supports kilometer and mile for the line
length unit. The fault distance will be presented with the same unit as the line
length and is mapped to IEC61850 -8-1 communication protocol, where the
fault distance is supposed to be in kilometer (km). Select the line length unit to
kilometer for compliance with IEC61850.
The result is displayed on the local HMI or via PCM600. Distances to faults for the last 100
recorded disturbances can be found on the local HMI under Main menu/Tests/Function
status/Monitoring/LMBRFLO/LMBRFLO:1/Outputs
If PCM600 is used, the result is displayed on the recording list after upload, including loop
selection information.

The test of the Pulse counter function PCGGIO requires the Parameter Setting tool in PCM600
or an appropriate connection to the local HMI with the necessary functionality. A known
number of pulses with different frequencies are connected to the pulse counter input. The test
should be performed with settings Operation = On or Operation = Off and the function
blocked or unblocked. The pulse counter value is then checked in PCM600 or on the local HMI.

7.12.1 Establishing connection and verifying the IEC 61850

communication GUID-0EEBE65F-5A84-4D2E-A358-BF5283E948D6 v1
About this chapter

This chapter contains instructions on how to establish connection and verify that the IEC
61850 communication operates as intended, when the IED is connected to an Ethernet
network via the optical ports of the COM module.

7.12.1.1 Overview GUID-F8AA9CC0-E9DC-4656-B209-879B18243189 v1
The COM03 ports are used for substation bus (IEC 61850-8-1) communication as well as
redundant communication.
The COM05 ports are also used for communication but not redundant communication.
For IEC 61850-8-1 redundant communication according to IEC62439–3 Edition 2, port LAN_1A
and LAN_1B is utilized.
Redundant communication according to IEC62439–3 Edition 1 and IEC 61850–

9–2LE process bus communication are not supported in the 650 Ver 1.3 series
IEDs.
7.12.1.2 Setting the station communication GUID-B77A38F2-1895-4CB3-AB16-961E8A73DAD5 v1
To enable the IEC 61850 communication, the corresponding COM03 ports must be activated.
Port LAN1 A and LAN1 B are used for redundancy.
If COM03 is used; the following below apply. If COM05 is used; there is no redundancy and the
port is named LAN1 or (FRONT)
• The IEC 61850-8-1 station communication functionality must be configured in the local
HMI. Navigate to Main Menu/Configuration/Communication/TCP-IP configuation/
ETHLAN1_AB and set the OperationMode parameter to NonRedundant(A) or, for
redundant communication, to PRP(A+B).
• To enable GOOSE communication, the Operation parameter for the corresponding GOOSE
function blocks (GOOSEBINRCV and GOOSEINTLKRCV) must be set to On in the
• To enable GOOSE communication via the front port the parameter GOOSE in Main menu/
Configuration/Communication/Station communication/IEC61850-8-1/PortSelGOOSE
must be set to Front. To enable GOOSE communication via rear port the parameter
PortSelGOOSE must be set to LAN1.
1. Enable IEC 61850-8-1 (substation bus) communication for port A and B.

1.1. Set values for ETHLAN1_AB.
Navigate to Main Menu/Configuration/TCP-IP configuation/ETHLAN1_AB.

7.12.1.3 Verifying the station communication GUID-0B7E64BC-3346-4105-90C0-2EA5A5BB74DE v1
Connect a PC to the substation network and ping the connected IED and the Substation
Master PC to verify that the communication is working up to the transport layer.
The best way to verify the communication up to the application layer is to use a protocol
analyzer connected to the substation or process bus and monitor the communication.
Verifying redundant IEC 61850-8-1 communication

Ensure that the IED receives IEC 61850-8-1 data on both ports A and B. In the local HMI
navigate to Main menu/Tests/Function status/Communication/PRP Status/LAN1–A / LAN1–
B and check that both signals LAN1-A and LAN1-B are shown as Ok. Remove the optical
connection to one of the ports A or B. Verify that either signal LAN1-A or LAN1-B (depending on
which connection that was removed) are shown as Error and that the other signal is shown as
Ok. Be sure to re-connect the removed connection after completed verification.

Commissioning and maintenance of the fault clearing system
Section 8 Commissioning and maintenance of

the fault clearing system
8.1 Commissioning and maintenance of the fault clearing
system SEMOD56497 v1
About this chapter

This chapter discusses maintenance tests and other periodic maintenance measures.
8.1.1 Commissioning tests SEMOD56513-5 v4
During commissioning all protection functions shall be verified with the setting values used at
each plant. The commissioning tests must include verification of all circuits by green-lining the
circuit diagrams and the configuration diagrams for the used functions.
Further, the settings for protection functions are tested and recorded carefully as outlined for
the future periodic maintenance tests.
The final testing includes primary verification of all directional functions where load currents is
checked on the local HMI and in PCM600. The amplitudes and angles of all currents and
voltages should be checked and the symmetry verified.
Directional functions have information about the measured direction and, for example,
measured impedance. These values must be checked and verified as correct with the export or
import of power available.
Finally, final trip tests must be performed. This involves activation of protection functions or
tripping outputs with the circuit breaker closed and the tripping of the breaker verified. When
several breakers are involved, each breaker must be checked individually and it must be
verified that the other involved breakers are not tripped at the same time.
8.1.2 Periodic maintenance tests SEMOD56517-1 v1
SEMOD56520-5 v4
The periodicity of all tests depends on several factors, for example the importance of the
installation, environmental conditions, simple or complex equipment, static or
electromechanical IEDs, and so on.
The normal maintenance praxis of the user should be followed. However, ABB's
recommendation is as follows:
Every second to third year
• Visual inspection of all equipment.

• Removal of dust on ventilation louvres and IEDs if necessary.
• Periodic maintenance test for protection IEDs of object where no redundant protections
are provided.
Every four to six years
• Periodic maintenance test for protection IEDs of objects with redundant protection
system.

First maintenance test should always be carried out after the first half year of
service.
When protection IEDs are combined with built-in control, the test interval can
be increased drastically, up to for instance 15 years, because the IED
continuously reads service values, operates the breakers, and so on.
8.1.2.1 Visual inspection SEMOD56525-5 v2
Prior to testing, the protection IEDs should be inspected to detect any visible damage that
may have occurred (for example, dirt or moisture deposits, overheating). Should burned
contacts be observed when inspecting the IEDs, a diamond file or an extremely fine file can be
used to polish the contacts. Emery cloth or similar products must not be used as insulating
grains of abrasive may be deposited on the contact surfaces and cause failure.
Make sure that all IEDs are equipped with covers.
8.1.2.2 Maintenance tests SEMOD56534-1 v1
SEMOD56528-5 v4
To be made after the first half year of service, then with the cycle as proposed above and after
any suspected maloperation or change of the IED setting.
Testing of protection IEDs shall preferably be made with the primary circuit de-energized. The
IED cannot protect the circuit during testing. Trained personnel may test one IED at a time on
live circuits where redundant protection is installed and de-energization of the primary circuit
is not allowed.
ABB protection IEDs are preferably tested by aid of components from the COMBITEST testing
system described in information B03-9510 E. Main components are RTXP 8/18/24 test switch
located to the left in each protection IED and RTXH 8/18/24 test handle, which is inserted in
test switch at secondary testing. All necessary operations such as opening of trip circuits,
short-circuiting of current circuits and opening of voltage circuits are automatically performed
in the right order to allow for simple and safe secondary testing even with the object in
service.
Preparation SEMOD56528-10 v2
Before starting maintenance testing, the test engineers should scrutinize applicable circuit
diagrams and have the following documentation available:
• Test instructions for protection IEDs to be tested

• Test records from previous commissioning and maintenance tests
• List of valid settings
• Blank test records to fill in measured values
Recording SEMOD56528-14 v2
It is of utmost importance to carefully record the test results. Special test sheets covering the
frequency of test, date of test and achieved test values should be used. IED setting list and
protocols from previous tests should be available and all results should be compared for
differences. At component failures, spare equipment is used and set to the requested value. A
note of the exchange is made and the new measured values are recorded. Test records for
several years of testing should be stored in a common file for a station, or a part of a station,
to give a simple overview of the period of testing and achieved test values. These test records
are valuable when analysis of service disturbances shall be done.

Secondary injection SEMOD56528-17 v2

The periodic maintenance test is done by secondary injection from a portable test set. Each
protection shall be tested according to the secondary injection test information for the
specific protection IED. Only the setting values adopted shall be checked for each protection
function. If the discrepancy between obtained value and requested set value is too big the
setting should be adjusted, the new value recorded and a note should be made in the test
record.
Alarm test SEMOD56528-20 v4

When inserting the test handle the alarm and event signalling is normally blocked. This is done
in the IED by setting the event reporting to Off during the test. This can be done when the test
handle is inserted or the IED is set to test mode from the local HMI. At the end of the
secondary injection test it should be checked that the event and alarm signalling is correct by
activating the events and performing some selected tests.
Self supervision check SEMOD56528-23 v4

Once secondary testing has been completed, it should be checked that no self-supervision
signals are activated continuously or sporadically. Especially check the time synchronization
system, GPS or other, and communication signals, both station communication and remote
communication.
Trip circuit check SEMOD56528-26 v4

When the protection IED undergoes an operational check, a tripping pulse is normally obtained
on one or more of the output contacts and preferably on the test switch. The healthy circuit is
of utmost importance for the protection operation. If the circuit is not provided with a
continuous trip-circuit supervision, it is possible to check that circuit is really closed when the
test-plug handle has been removed by using a high-ohmic voltmeter and measuring between
the plus and the trip output on the panel. The measurement is then done through the tripping
magnet of the circuit breaker and therefore the complete tripping circuit is checked.
Note that the breaker must be closed.
Please observe that the test system does not provide built-in security during
this test. If the instrument should be set on Amp instead of Volts, the circuit
breaker naturally is tripped, therefore, great care is necessary.
Trip circuit from trip IEDs to circuit breaker is often supervised by trip-circuit supervision. It
can then be checked that a circuit is healthy by opening tripping output terminals in the
cubicle. When the terminal is opened, an alarm shall be achieved on the signal system after a
delay of some seconds.
Remember to close the circuit directly after the test and tighten the terminal
carefully.
Measurement of service currents SEMOD56528-30 v4

After a maintenance test it is recommended to measure the service currents and service
voltages recorded by the protection IED. The service values are checked on the local HMI or in
PCM600. Ensure that the correct values and angles between voltages and currents are
recorded. Also check the direction of directional functions such as Distance and directional
overcurrent functions.

For transformer differential protection, the achieved differential current value is dependent on
the tap changer position and can vary between less than 1% up to perhaps 10% of rated
current. For line differential functions, the capacitive charging currents can normally be
recorded as a differential current.
The zero-sequence current to earth-fault protection IEDs should be measured. The current
amounts normally very small but normally it is possible to see if the current circuit is "alive".
The neutral-point voltage to an earth-fault protection IED is checked. The voltage is normally
0.1 to 1V secondary. However, voltage can be considerably higher due to harmonics. Normally a
CVT secondary can have around 2.5 - 3% third-harmonic voltage.
Restoring SEMOD56528-36 v2
Maintenance is very important to improve the availability of the protection system by
detecting failures before the protection is required to operate. There is however little point in
testing healthy equipment and then putting it back into service with an open terminal, with a
removed fuse or open miniature circuit breaker with an open connection, wrong setting, and
so on.
Thus a list should be prepared of all items disturbed during test so that all can be put back into
service quickly and without overlooking something. It should be put back into service item by
item and signed by the responsible engineer.

Section 9 Troubleshooting
9.1 Fault tracing
9.1.1 Identifying hardware errors GUID-0F0FF99B-E3EF-4D44-ABB4-19041BA9FBF1 v6
1. Check the module with an error.

• Check the general IED status in Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/General for a
faulty hardware module.
• Check the history of changes in internal event list in Main menu/Diagnostics/
Internal Events.
2. Inspect the IED visually.
• Inspect the IED visually to find any physical error causes.
• If you can find some obvious physical damage, contact ABB for repair or
replacement actions.
3. Check whether the error is external or internal.
• Check that the error is not caused by external origins.
• Remove the wiring from the IED and test the input and output operation with an
external test device.
• If the problem remains, contact ABB for repair or replacement actions.
9.1.2 Identifying runtime errors GUID-105A9FFE-75F3-4E65-BFF7-F31268CD7DCE v6
1. Check the error origin from IED's internal event list Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/
General.
2. Reboot the IED and recheck the supervision events to see if the fault has cleared.
3. In case of persistent faults, contact ABB for corrective actions.
9.1.3 Identifying communication errors GUID-4C589FC4-B122-4F12-8E3D-1B05B4FC5FCE v6
Communication errors are normally communication interruptions or synchronization message

errors due to communication link breakdown.
• Check the IEC61850 and DNP3 communication status in internal event list in Main menu/
Diagnostics/IED Status/General.
• In case of persistent faults originating from IED's internal faults such as component
breakdown, contact ABB for repair or replacement actions.
9.1.3.1 Checking the communication link operation GUID-A1815C16-1AB7-4DEE-8E9B-0BF91DDEE72C v4
There are several different communication links on the product. First check that all
communication ports that are used for communication are turned on.
1. Check the front communication port RJ-45.

1.1. Check that the uplink LED is lit with a steady green light.

Troubleshooting
The uplink LED is located on the LHMI above the RJ-45 communication port on the
left. The port is used for direct electrical communication to a PC connected via a
crossed-over Ethernet cable.
1.2. Check the communication status of the front port via the LHMI in Main menu/Test/
Function status/Communication/DOSFRNT:1/Outputs.
Check that the LINKUP value is 1, that is, the communication is working. When the
value is 0, there is no communication link.
2. Check the communication status of the rear port X1 via the LHMI in Main menu/Tests/
Function status/Communication/DOSLAN1:1/Outputs.
The X1 communication port on the rear side of the IED is for optical Ethernet via LC
connector.
• Check that the LINKUP value is 1, that is, the communication is working. When the
value is 0, there is no communication link.
9.1.3.2 Checking the time synchronization GUID-CE54512E-06E3-4255-823C-1ACA122CC67E v5
• Select Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status/General and check the status of the time
synchronization on Time Synch.
The Time synch value is Ready when the synchronization is in order.
Note that the time synchronization source has to be activated. Otherwise

the value is always Ready.
9.1.4 Running the display test AMU0600411 v6
To run the display test, either use the push buttons or start the test via the menu.
• Select Main menu/Tests/LED test.

• Press or simultaneously and .
All the LEDs are tested by turning them on simultaneously. The display shows a set of
patterns so that all the pixels are activated. After the test, the display returns to normal
state.
9.2 Indication messages
9.2.1 Internal faults GUID-2ACAE73F-9CDD-4C33-AFED-6BACC8990F37 v4
When the Ready LED indicates an internal fault by flashing, the message associated with the
fault is found in the internal event list in the LHMI menu Main menu/Diagnostics/Internal
events. The message includes the date, time, description and signal state for the fault. The
internal event list is not updated dynamically. The list is updated by leaving the Internal events
menu and then selecting it again. The current status of the internal fault signals can also be
checked via the LHMI in Main menu/Diagnostics/IED status.
Different actions are taken depending on the severity of the fault. If the fault is found to be
permanent, the IED stays in internal fault mode. The IED continues to perform internal tests
during the fault situation.
When a fault appears, the fault indication message is to be recorded and stated when
requesting support or service.

9.3 Correction procedures
9.3.1 Changing and setting the password GUID-D3FA85BA-1E36-4F8B-BD71-85C7AC46A0B4 v1
The password can only be set with PCM600.
For more information, see PCM600 documentation.
9.3.2 Identifying IED application problems GUID-D8E1AECF-1FD8-4996-A447-948B52EAD0C2 v5
Navigate to the appropriate menu in the LHMI to identify possible problems.
• Check that the function is on.

• Check that the correct setting group (1 to 4) is activated.
• Check the blocking.
• Check the mode.
• Check the measurement value.
• Check the connection to trip and disturbance recorder functions.
• Check the channel settings.
9.3.2.1 Inspecting the wiring GUID-665B75A6-A074-4A03-ADF1-3D0FAD198E61 v5
The physical inspection of wiring connections often reveals the wrong connection for phase
currents or voltages. However, even though the phase current or voltage connections to IED
terminals might be correct, wrong polarity of one or more measurement transformers can
cause problems.
• Check the current or voltage measurements and their phase information from Main
menu/Measurements/Analog primary values or Analog secondary values.
• Check that the phase information and phase shift between phases is correct.
• Correct the wiring if needed.
• Change the parameter Negation in Configuration/Analog modules/
3PhaseAnalogGroup/SMAI_20_n:1 (n= the number of the SMAI used).
Changing the Negation parameter is not recommended without

special skills.
• In PCM600, change the parameter CTStarPointn (n= the number on the current
input) under the parameter settings for each current input.
• Check the actual state of the connected binary inputs.

Troubleshooting
• In LHMI, select Main menu/Tests/I/O modules. Then navigate to the board with the
actual binary input to be checked.
• With PCM600, right-click the product and select Signal Monitoring. Then navigate to
the actual I/O board and to the binary input in question. The activated input signal is
indicated with a yellow-lit diode.
• Measure output contacts using the voltage drop method of applying at least the minimum
contact load given for the output relays in the technical data, for example 100 mA at 24 V
AC/DC.
Output relays, especially power output relays, are designed for breaking
high currents. Due to this, layers of high resistance may appear on the
surface of the contacts. Do not determine proper functionality of
connectivity or contact resistance by measuring with a regular hand-held
ohm meter.

• To check the status of the output circuits driving the output relay via the LHMI, select
Main menu/Tests/I/O modules and then navigate to the board with the actual binary
output to be checked.
• Test and change the relay state manually.
1. To set the IED to test mode, select Main menu/Tests/IED test mode/TESTMODE:1
and set the parameter to On.
2. To operate or force the output relay to operate, select and then navigate to the
board with the actual binary output relay to be operated/forced.
3. Select the BOn_PO to be operated/forced and use and or to operate the
actual output relay.
In PCM600, only the result of these operations can be checked by right-clicking the
product and selecting Signal Monitoring tool and then navigating to the actual I/O-
board and the binary input in question. The activated output signal is indicated with
a yellow-lit diode. Each BOn_PO is represented by two signals. The first signal in
LHMI is the actual value 1 or 0 of the output, and in PCM600 a lit or dimmed diode.
The second signal is the status Normal or Forced. Forced status is only achieved
when the BO is set to Forced or operated on the LHMI.

Troubleshooting
Set the parameter TestMode to Off after completing these tests. The
Start LED stops flashing when the relay is no longer in test mode.
An initially high contact resistance does not cause problems as it is reduced quickly by the
electrical cleaning effect of fritting and thermal destruction of layers, bringing the contact
resistance back to the mOhm range. As a result, practically the full voltage is available at the
load.

Glossary
UTC Coordinated Universal Time. A coordinated time scale, maintained by

the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), which forms the
basis of a coordinated dissemination of standard frequencies and time
signals. UTC is derived from International Atomic Time (TAI) by the
addition of a whole number of "leap seconds" to synchronize it with
Universal Time 1 (UT1), thus allowing for the eccentricity of the Earth's
orbit, the rotational axis tilt (23.5 degrees), but still showing the Earth's
irregular rotation, on which UT1 is based. The Coordinated Universal
Time is expressed using a 24-hour clock, and uses the Gregorian
calendar. It is used for aeroplane and ship navigation, where it is also
sometimes known by the military name, "Zulu time." "Zulu" in the
phonetic alphabet stands for "Z", which stands for longitude zero.
