Safety information Dangerous voltages can occur on the connectors, even though the auxiliary voltage has been disconnected. Non-observance can result in death, personal injury or substantial property damage. Only a competent electrician is allowed to carry out the electrical installation. National and local electrical safety regulations must always be fol- lowed.

11120_BP External TRIP This is the tripping signal generated by bay protection of REB500. It trips faults on a line with the aid of the REB500 tripping contact. Tripping thus takes account of the busbar configuration at the time. The signal is activated by the bay protection directly and does not therefore appear as binary input signal.

Configuring bay protection using HMI500 Integration of bay protection The REB500 bay models include no bay protection functionality. The integration of the bay protection (variant V-L2) takes place under the setfile engineering dur- ing the “Import a Bay Model” process.
Its content is determined by the already selected Bay protection variant (see Section 3.2). The protection functions used for configuration are listed on the right. The first is always the binary output function “BP output” (see Figure 4). Application Manual Bay protection functions REB500...

Assigning protection functions to parameter sets Every instance of a protection function can be assigned to a particular parameter set. The REB500 runs the protection functions in the currently selected parameter set. The active parameter set is changed by setting the appropriate binary input on the bay unit.

When adding bay protection to an existing station more checks have to be carried out than is the case of a REB500 with only station protection. To avoid any risk of the station protection functions (BBP, BFP and EFP) being affected and possibly mal operating when performing the additional checks, the following procedure is recommended.
Page 58
Connect the optical fiber cable going to the central unit • Switch on the bay unit Step 9 Perform the busbar protection through-fault stability check (Refer to REB500 Commissioning Manual Sections “Checking protection stability”) Step 10 Check the direction of the distance protection function with load current. This is achieved by measuring real and apparent power in L1 phase.

Communication The Communication Protocol Manuals describe the communication protocols sup- ported by the IED with a focus on vendor-specific implementations. The communication signal engineering extends the basic signal engineering of BP described in the present Application Manual.
