Digital processing of the sampled measuring values

The application of powerful microprocessors opens a

new chapter for power protection systems. Because of
their capabilities to process the measuring values
digitally and to perform arithmetical and logical
operations, the digital protective relays are superior to
the traditional analogue devices. In addition, the digital
protective relays offer some additional advantages such
as very low power consumption, adaptability,
possibilities for selfsupervision, flexible construction,
selection of relay characteristics etc.

Digital filtering of the measured values by using

discrete Fourier analysis to suppress the high
frequency harmonics and transient d.c.
components during short circuit
Selectable protective functions between : definite
time over-current relay and inverse time overcurrent relay
Selectable inverse time characteristics according
to BS 142 and IEC 255-4 :

The development of microprocessor-based protective

relays and their introduction into the market are
stimulated by the trend nowadays to replace analogue
with digital protective equipment.

normal inverse
very inverse
extremely inverse

The superiority of digital protective relays to the

traditional systems is enchanced by the MR relay family
which has the following characteristics :

Independent stage for the fast tripping of short

circuit (protection)
Two-stage over-current time protection for phase
current

Integration of multiple protective functions into one

compact housing
High measuring accuracy due to digital processing
of measuring values
Digital relay setting with very wide setting ranges
and the fine setting steps
User-friendly setting procedure by means of DIPswitches
Operation reliability due to continuous selfsupervision
The digital time relay IRI1 was designed as a universal
over-current relay for application to medium voltage
networks.
A similar protection relay with extended functions, the
MRI1
MRI1-digital multifunctional relay is also available. It
additionally provides an alpha-numeric display for the
indication of measuring values and faults. Furthermore,
the MRI1 allows data exchange via serial interface and
directional determination of the fault.

2.

with following selectable characteristics :
Normal inverse
Very inverse
Extremely inverse
Integrated independent and dependent overcurrent time protection for the earth fault
detection.
Furthermore, the device, providing the above
functions,can be employed as back-up protection for
differential and distance protection relays.

IRI1 -3I-EI

The incoming currents from the main current

transformers on the protected objects are converted to
voltage signals in proportion to the currents via the
input transducers and shunt resistors. The noise signals
caused by inductive and capacitive coupling are
suppressed by an analog R-C filter circuit. The analog
voltage signals are fed to the A/D-converter of the
microprocessor and transformed to digital signals
through Sample and Hold circuits. All the processing is
carried out on these digitized values. The measuring
values are detected with a sampling frequency of 800
Hz, a sampling rate of 1.25 ms for each measurement
(at 50 Hz).

6.2 Digital circuits

The protective device is equipped with an efficient
microprocessor which is the main processing unit. It
digitally carries out all of the operations, from the
digitization of the measuring values to the protective
tripping.
The relay program is located in an EPROM (ReadOnly-Memory). With this program the microprocessor
processes the voltages at the analog inputs and
calculates the fundamental components of the current.
For the calculation of the current value an efficient
digital filter based on the Fourier Transformation (DEFTDiscrete Fast Fourier Transformation) is applied to
suppress high frequency harmonics and d.c.
components during a short circuit.

The calculated actual current values are continuously

compared with the set value which is adjusted using the
DIP - switches. When activated, the over-current tripping
time is determined according to the selected
characteristic curve. When the calculated time delay has
elapsed, a tripping command is given.

a)

Independent tripping curve : DEFT (definite)

adjusted :

b)

dependent tripping curve :

NINV (normal inverse)
VINV (very inverse)

6.3 Power supply

EINV (extremely inverse)

For the 24 V (nominal voltage) unit it is possible to select

an auxiliary voltage range from 16 V to 90 V and for the
110 V (nominal voltage) unit an auxiliary voltage from
80 V to 250 V (a.c./d.c.).

6.4 Demands imposed on the main

current transformers
The current transformers have to be rated in such a way,
that a saturation should not occur within the following
operating current ranges : Independent time overcurrent function K1 = 2
Inverse time over-current function K1 = 20
High-set function K1 = 1.2 - 1.5
K1 = Current factor related to set value with the current
transformer not yet operating in the saturation range.
Moreover, the current transformers have to be rated
according to the maximum expected short circuit
currents of the network or the object to be protected.
The lower consumption of the IRI1
IRI1, i.e. 0.2 VA, has a
positive effect on the rating of the current transformers.
It implies that, if an electromechanical relay is replaced
by IRI1, a high accuracy limit factor is automatically
obtained by using the same current transformer.

7.

Operation and Settings

7.1 Layout of operating elements

All DIP-switches required for the setting of parameters
are located on the front panel (see fig. front panel).

7.2 Setting of parameters by DIPswitches

For a better comprehension of the different DIP-switch
positions, it was agreed that
1.

DIP-switch is turned off (Off possition)

DIP-switch is turned on (On position)

2. Contrary to the DIP-switches on the IRI1 front panel

the examples given here are numbered. Position On is
equally marked.

For characteristic selection in IRI-3I-EI refer 7.5.5.

By setting DIP-switch (not 50/60 Hz) to the On position
it is possible to select one of the three dependent
tripping curves. If an independent over-current tripping
is required, all three of the DIP-switches must be set to
position DEFT. In case of an invalid setting of the DIPswitches, for example if several switches are
simultaneously set to On position, an independent
tripping characteristic with the smallest possible tripping
values and times is automatically selected. This ensures
that the object to be protected cannot be overloaded
under any circumstances. Setting ranges and
characteristics are detailed in chapter 10.
Please Note :
The IRI1-2O-EO unit type provides identical
dependent tripping characteristics for phase
overcurrent and earth overcurrent stages i.e. if
NINV characteristics is selected it is applicable
for both O/C + E/F
E/F..

7.2.2

Setting of response value I> for

phase-over-current

With the aid of DIP-switch set I> it is possible to adjust

the respons value for phase-over-current tripping in the
range 0.5 - 2.5 x I N. The tripping value is calculated
from the sum of the individual settings of all the DIPswitches.

Example :
A tripping value of 1.0 X IN is required.
Therefore switches 2 and 4 are switched on.

7.2.3

Setting of tripping time (t I>) for

phase-over-current

With the aid of DIP-switch set tI> it is possible to select

the tripping time for the phase-over-current in the range
-0.1 -150 s. There are four switches available to adjust
the set value switch (3, 4, 5 & 6) and two switches
(switch 1 & 2) to select the multiplication factor.

7.2.9

Setting of the tripping time

(tIE>>) for earth-fault high set

See setting procedure as described in paragraph

7.2.3.

7.2.10

Setting of normal frequency

The set value is calculated from the sum of the individual

factors (switch 3-6) multiplied by the set multiplication
factor (switch 1 or 2). 1, 10 and 100 are possible as
multiplication factors. If the switches 1 and 2 are both set
On, the setting is invalid and gives an automatic
multiplication factor of 1. If all the switches 3 - 6 are set
to the Off position, the tripping time is equal to the relay
operating time (approx. 30 ms).

The nominal frequency can be adjusted to 50 or 60 Hz

by means of DIP-switches on the front panel.

Setting of response value (I>>)

for phase-short-circuit

With the aid of DIP-switch set I>> it is possible to adjust

the response value for the fast tripping of phase-shortcircuit in the range from 2.0-33.5 x IN .
The tripping value is calculated as described in 7.2.2.

7.2.5

Setting of the tripping time (t I>>)

for tripping of phase-short
circuit protection

With the aid of DIP-switch ti>> it is possible to adjust the

tripping period ti>> for the fast tripping of phase -short
circuit protection in the range from 0.05 - 1.55 s. The
setting time is calculated from the sum of the individual
factors of all the DIP - switches switched on. If all the
switches are in the Off position, the tripping time is equal
to the relay operating time (approx. 30 ms).

Please Note :
If switch is set, the fast tripping of shortcircuit
protection
is
inhibited,
independent of other switch settings.

7.3

Indication of faults

For the fault indication the IRI1front panel provides 8/

9 LEDs with the following functions :

LED I>> : serves to indicate tripping from a phaseshort-current

LED IE

: serves to indicate tripping from a earth

fault

LED IE>> : serves to indicate tripping from earth

fault high set stage
ON

: power ON indication.

7.4

Reset

7.4.1

Reset by pressing push-button

<RESET>

When the push-button <RESET> is pressed, the device

immediately reset and the LEDs extinguish.

7.4.2

Reset by each new energization

At each new energization, the unit returns to its initial

position and the LEDs indicate the fault now present.

Independent of the selected tripping characteristic of the

over-current stage I>>, the tripping period for the fast
tripping short-circuit stage I> is always definite.

7.5

Calculation of the setting values

7.5.1

Phase-over-current stage (I>)

7.2.6

The main criterion for the setting of the over-current

response value is the normal maximum operating
current which is therefore adjusted to about 20% for
power line, about 50 % for transformers and motors,
above the maximum expected load currents. The delay
of the trip signal is selected according to the selectivity
and time grading, and the system overload capacity of
the protected object.

Setting of response value (I E) for

earth-fault stage

See setting procedure as described in paragraph 7.2.2.

7.5.2

Fast tripping short circuit

protection (I>>)

The fast tripping short-circuit protection is normally set

to act for near-by faults. The time delay for I>> is
always independent of the fault current.

8.

The IRI1 can be supplied in an individual housing for

flush-mounting or as a plug-in module for installation
in a 19 mounting rack according to DIN 41494. Both
versions have plug-in connections.

8.1
7.5.3

Dependent over-current time

protection

Apart from the selection of the tripping characteristics,

the response value for the phase-current is also
adjustable.

7.5.4

Phase-over-current stage (I>)

The starting current is determined according to the

maximum expected load current. For example :
Current transformer ratio : 400/5 A
Maximum expected load current : 300 A
Overload coefficient : 1.2 (assumed)
Starting current setting : IS = (300 / 400) x 1.2 = 0.9
x IN

7.5.5

Time multiplier setting

The time multiplier setting for inverse time over-current

is a scale factor for the selected characteristics. The
characteristics for two adjacent relays should have a
time interval of about 0.3 - 0.4 s.

7.5.6

Fast tripping short circuit

Housing

Flush mounting

The individual housing of the IRI1 is constructed for

flush-mounting. The dimensions of the mounting frame
correspond to the requirements of DIN 43700 (76 x
142 mm). The cut-out for panel mounting is 68.7 x
136.5 mm.
The front panel of the IRI1 is covered with a
transparent, sealable flap (IP54).
For case dimensions and cut-out refer to technical
data. The individual housing is fixed with the supplied
clasps from the rear of the panel.

8.2

Rack mounting

The IRI1 is in general suitable for installation in a

modular carrier according to DIN 41494. The
installation dimensions are : 12 TE; 3 HE. According
to requirements, The IRI1
IRI1-devices can be delivered
mounted in 19 racks.

8.3

Terminal

The IRI1
IRI1-plug-in module has a very compact plug-and
socket connector. This connector consists of up to 27
terminals of 5 A and 15 terminals of 20 A.
The current terminals are equipped with self-closing
contacts. Thus, the IRI1-module can be unplugged
even with current flowing, without endangering the
current transformers connected.
The measuring circuits of IRI1 (terminal connector
series A and B) are connected through spade terminals
with dimensions of 6.3 mm x 0.8 mm, for cables,
max. 6 mm 2. By using 2.8 mm x 0.8 mm spade
terminals, a bridge connection between different poles
is possible.
The following figure shows the terminals back of IRI1

The high-set current setting is set as a multiplier of the

nominal current. The time delay is always independent
to the fault current.
