Functions :

DIGSI 5 permits all functions to be configured and combined as required. In SIPROTEC 7UT87, two transformer function groups can be used.

• Transformer differential protection for multi-winding transformers with versatile, additional protection functions (multi-winding transformers are typical in power converter applications (such as HVDC))
• Transformer differential protection for phase angle regulating transformers of the single core and two core types, and special transformers
• Transformer protection applications with up to 11 3-phase current measuring points
• Simultaneous differential protection for 3 transformers (such as 3 two-winding transformers)
• Universal usability of the permissible measuring points
• Applicable from average up to extra high  voltage
• Protection of standard power transformers, auto transformers, short lines, cables, for longitudinal and shunt reactors, as well as motors
• Typical properties of a transformer differential protection  such as flexible adaptation to the transformer vector group, control of inrush and overexcitation  processes, safe behavior in case of current-transformer saturation with different degrees of saturation
• Fault locator plus for accurate fault location with inhomogenous line sections and targeted automatic overhead-line section reclosing (AREC)
• Arc protection
• Voltage controller  function ANSI 90V for two-winding transformers, three-winding transformers and grid coupling transformers with parallel control (master/follower, circulating reactive current minimization)
• Adaptive adaptation of the operate curve to the transformer tap position
• Increased sensitivity with near-neutral-point ground faults through a separate restricted ground-fault  protection
• Point-on-wave switching
• Additional current and voltage inputs can be supplements for standard protection functions, such as overcurrent, voltage frequency, etc.
• Dynamic Voltage Control (DVC) to adapt the voltage target value via a power direction dependent characteristic curve with strong infeed of regenerative energies
• Graphical logic editor to create powerful automation functions in the device
• Up to 4 pluggable communication modules, usable for different and redundant protocols (IEC 61850-8-1, IEC 61850-9-2 Client, IEC 60870-5-103, IEC 60870-5-104, Modbus TCP, DNP3 serial and TCP, PROFINET IO, PROFINET IO S2 redundancy)
• Virtual network sharing (IEEE 802.1Q – VLAN)
• Reliable data transmission via PRP and HSR redundancy protocols
• Extensive cybersecurity functionality, such as role-based access control (RBAC), protocolling security-related events, signed firmware or authenticated network access IEEE 802.1X
• Simple, quick and secure access to the device via a standard Web browser to display all information and diagnostic data, as well as vector diagrams, single-line and device display pages
• Secure serial protection data communication, also over great distances and all available physical media (optical fiber, two-wire connections and communication networks)
• PQ-Basic: voltage unbalance; voltage changes: overvoltage, dip, interruption; TDD, THD and Harmonics
• Capturing operational measured variables and protection function measured values for the evaluation of the system, to support commissioning, and to analyze faults
• Frequency tracked protection functions over a wide frequency range (10 Hz to 90 Hz) and the option to assign the protection functions in a single device to different frequency tracking groups
• Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) for synchrophasor measured values and IEEE C37.118 protocol
• Powerful fault recording (buffer for a max. record time of 80 sec. at 8 kHz or 320 sec. at 2 kHz)
• Auxiliary functions for simple tests and commissioning
• Flexibly adjustable I/O quantity structure within the scope of the SIPROTEC 5 modular system
