In our previous session, we covered the working principle, function, and setting calculation of generator Underfrequency Protection. Today, we will discuss the working principle, function, and setting calculation of generator Underfrequency Protection, as detailed below: Generator Overfrequency Protection, internationally standardized under ANSI/IEEE C37.2 as code 81O, operates on the core principle of continuously monitoring the AC voltage frequency at the generator terminals or the point of interconnection.

Generator Underfrequency Protection, internationally standardized under ANSI/IEEE C37.2 as code 81, operates on a core principle of continuously monitoring the AC voltage frequency at the generator terminals or at the station auxiliary bus. Relationship between Frequency and Speed: For a synchronous generator, the output electrical frequency f is directly proportional to the rotor speed N and the number of pole pairs P (f = (P * N) / 120). Therefore, a decrease in system frequency directly indicates a decrease in the prime mover (turbine) speed, signifying that the mechanical input power is less than the electrical output power, putting the generator in a motoring condition.

Reverse Power Protection is fundamentally a directional power protection used to detect the flow of active power.         Core Principle: It calculates the active power internally within the relay based on the measured voltage and current at the generator terminals (or outlet). The active power is calculated using the formula P = √3 × V × I × cosφ, where cosφ is the power factor.

The core principle of rotor earth fault protection is to monitor the insulation condition of the generator's field circuit (rotor circuit) to ground. Under normal conditions, the rotor circuit is insulated from ground, with only a very small leakage current to earth. A single earth fault does not create a short-circuit path (as a return path is missing), but it serves as a critical alarm because a subsequent second earth fault would have severe consequences.

       The main components of a hydropower plant integrated automation system are as follows: 1. Station Level / Control and Monitoring Level This is the "brain" of the entire system, located in the central control room, responsible for plant-wide supervision, control, management, and communication.

 The protection system for large diesel generators (1000-2000KW) shall be equipped with the following protection functions:         Overcurrent Protection (ANSI 50/51): Prevents damage to the generator set caused by overload or short circuit.        Overvoltage Protection (ANSI 59): Protects the windings and insulation of the generator set from damage caused by overvoltage.        Undervoltage Protection (ANSI 27): Ensures the generator set trips in a timely manner when the voltage is too low to avoid equipm

Type testing of medium voltage switchgear in accordance with IEC standards may involve two scenarios: First, testing at domestic accredited testing stations in compliance with the IEC 62271 series standards, resulting in test reports that conform to IEC 62271. Second, testing at international STL (Short-Circuit Testing Liaison) testing stations according to IEC standards and STL guidelines.

A 400V PV Low-Voltage Grid-Connection Cabinet is a critical interface device that connects the photovoltaic (PV) power generation system to the low-voltage grid. It is a dedicated distribution panel integrating protection, monitoring, metering, and control functions. It is primarily composed of the following core components:

This article introduces the configuration scheme for a switchgear arc flash protection system. Busbar arc flash protection monitors the busbar compartment and trips the incoming breaker, while feeder arc flash protection monitors the circuit breaker compartment and cable compartment to trip the feeder breaker. A proper arc flash protection system configuration scheme can effectively protect personnel and equipment safety.
