Chapter 1: Introduction Introduction The Multilin 889 relay is a microprocessor-based unit intended for the primary protection of small, medium and large sized generators. Base relay models provide standard generator protection functions plus a number of current and voltage based backup functions.
DESCRIPTION OF THE 889 GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION A summary of the available functions and a single-line diagram of protection and control features is shown below. For a complete understanding of each feature operation, refer to Chapter 4: Setpoints. The logic diagrams include a reference to every setpoint related to a feature and show all logic signals passed between individual features.

CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION DESCRIPTION OF THE 889 GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM current and voltage phasors, such that the resulting values have no harmonic components. RMS (root mean square) values are calculated from one cycle of samples prior to filtering. Protection Elements All voltage, current and frequency protection elements are processed eight times every cycle to determine if a pickup has occurred or a timer has expired.

The basic security feature is present in the default offering of the 889 relay. The 889 introduces the notion of roles for different levels of authority. Roles are used as login names with associated passwords stored on the device. The following roles are available at present: Administrator, Operator, Factory and Observer, with a fixed permission structure for each one.
If the user ID credential does not match one of the device local accounts, the 889 automatically forwards the request to a RADIUS server when one is provided. If a RADIUS server is provided, but is unreachable over the network, server authentication requests are denied.

Note that uploading firmware to a relay having a Communications card must be done with “Port 4 operation” configured as independent. Before upgrading firmware, it is very important to save the current 889 settings to a file on FASTPATH: your PC. After the firmware has been upgraded, it will be necessary to load this file back into the 889.
Page 113
The firmware filename has the following format. The following screen appears. Select YES to proceed. EnerVista 8 Series Setup software now prepares the 889 to receive the new firmware file. The 889 front panel momentarily displays “Upload Mode”, indicating that it is in upload mode.

When a freeze function is performed on a Binary Counter point, the frozen value is available in the corresponding Frozen Counter point. 889 Digital Counter values are represented as 16 or 32-bit integers. The DNP 3.0 protocol defines counters to be unsigned integers.
The IEC 60870-5-104 communications protocol is supported on Ethernet ports 4 and 5 only. Setting changes become active after rebooting. In 889 both DNP and IEC104 protocol can work at the same time, but the user has to FASTPATH: consider that there is only one point map. So, the two protocols use the same data mapping, i.e., same point index and same point source.
Page 171
“Network - TCP”, the IEC104 protocol can be used over TCP/IP on channels 1 or 2. The IEC104 NETWORK CLIENT ADDRESS settings can force the 889 to respond to a maximum of two specific IEC104 masters which own the configured IP Addresses. The settings in this sub-menu are shown below.

CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS SYSTEM Transformer The Transformer setup is only available for the 889 with Overall Differential Protection NOTE: order code. Two-winding Transformer setup is used to compensate for transformer winding connection in overall differential protection. NOTE INTRODUCTION An 889 unit ordered with the overall differential protection utilizes a two-winding transformer setup for GSU winding compensation.

Page 205
Traditionally, these corrections were accomplished by interposing CTs and tapped relay windings with some combination of CT connections. The 889 simplifies these configuration issues. All CTs at the transformer can be connected wye (polarity markings pointing away from the transformer). User-entered settings in the relay characterizes the transformer being protected and allows the relay to automatically perform all necessary magnitude, phase angle, and zero-sequence compensation.
Page 206
To compute differential and restraint currents, the 889 relay uses Winding 1 phase-phase voltage and the primary CT rating from the Signal input used for Winding 1. The 889 relay computes magnitude compensation factors for Winding 2 currents as shown below: - Phase-to-phase voltages (Setpoint) programmed for Winding 1 and Winding 2.
Page 207
SYSTEM Phase Shift Compensation Phase Compensation Reference: The percent differential protection from the 889 relay uses the Delta winding as a reference to perform phase shift compensation. If the transformer has only “Wye” connected windings, the phase currents from the first Wye winding in the setup are used as a reference.

(winding 1) in a delta. This compensates for the phase angle lag introduced in the delta side (winding 2). The 889 performs the phase angle correction internally based on the setpoint “Angle With Respect to W1” from the menu System > Transformer > Transformer Setup > “Winding 2”.

Relay Firmware in Chapter 3, Interfaces > Software Interface > Upgrading Relay Firmware. Path: Maintenance > Environmental Awareness Health Report Over the life of the 889 product remedial action can be required. The 889 has a module which can record environmental data. 889 GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL...
Prolonged exposure to harsh environments and transient conditions that exceed those stated in Section 1 - Specifications reduce the life of electronic products. The 889 has an Environmental Awareness Module (EAM) to record environmental data over the life of the product.
General Maintenance The 889 requires minimal maintenance. As a microprocessor-based relay, its characteristics do not change over time. The expected service life of a 889 is 20 years when the environment and electrical conditions are within stated specifications. While the 889 performs continual self-tests, it is recommended that maintenance be scheduled with other system maintenance.
