INTRODUCTION

The

SLR

12

A

and

SLR

12

B

relays

can

be

used

to

reclose

a

breaker

up

to

four

times

following

tripping

by

protective

relays

.

These

relays

can

be

set

to

provide

one

instantaneous

(

no

intentional

delay

)

and

three

time

-

delayed

reclosures

.

Any

,

or

all

,

of

the

reclosures

can

be

disabled

.

The

SLR

12

A

relay

is

designed

for

use

with

DC

voltages

(

48

,

110

,

125

,

220

,

250

)

,

whereas

the

SLR

12

B

relay

is

designed

for

use

with

AC

voltages

(

120

/

240

)

.

Typical

external

connections

to

the

SLR

12

A

and

SLR

12

B

relays

are

shown

in

Figures

respectively

.

DESCRIPTION

The

SLR

12

relays

are

microprocessor

-

controlled

and

designed

for

use

in

the

reclosing

of

a

circuit

breaker

following

tripping

by

protective

relays

.

Up

to

four

reclosures

can

be

selected

,

with

one

being

instantaneous

and

the

other

three

being

settable

over

various

time

ranges

.

Additional

features

,

to

be

discussed

subsequently

,

are

also

included

.

A

Liquid

Crystal

Display

(

LCD

)

is

included

in

the

relay

to

display

all

settings

that

are

directly

programmable

from

the

front

of

the

relay

.

Programming

is

done

via

a

set

of

four

CODE

switches

,

a

set

of

4

NUMBER

switches

and

an

ENTER

button

(

see

the

nameplate

,

Figure

13

,

for

details

)

.

The

CODE

switches

(

set

to

1

or

0

)

are

used

to

select

which

setting

is

to

be

made

,

whereas

the

NUMBER

switches

(

set

to

IN

or

OUT

)

are

used

to

make

the

actual

setting

.

After

the

CODE

and

NUMBER

switches

have

been

set

,

the

ENTER

button

is

pushed

to

store

the

setting

in

the

relay

.

Further

details

can

be

found

under

the

Settings

section

.

Settings

can

be

checked

by

pushing

the

READ

button

,

which

will

cause

the

settings

to

be

sequentially

displayed

on

the

LCD

(

see

Read

section

)

.

The

READ

button

can

be

pushed

at

any

time

to

check

the

settings

.

The

recloser

is

also

programmed

to

perform

a

self

-

test

by

pushing

the

TEST

button

,

which

will

cause

the

recloser

to

go

through

its

operating

sequence

without

energizing

the

output

relays

(

see

TESTING

section

)

.

The

READ

and

TEST

buttons

can

be

pushed

at

any

time

without

the

need

for

removing

the

recloser

from

service

:

however

,

the

relay

must

be

enabled

for

the

TEST

button

to

work

.

If

a

reclosing

operation

is

called

for

during

either

the

test

or

read

sequence

,

they

will

be

overridden

and

the

recloser

will

then

run

through

its

normal

operating

sequence

.

APPLICATION

are

shown

in

Figures

to

be

used

in

simple

,

straightforward

applications

without

any

special

requirements

such

as

synchronism

positions

is

employed

to

prevent

automatic

reclosing

of

the

breaker

following

a

manual

trip

.

With

this

switch

arrangement

,

the

relay

will

sense

that

reclosing

is

being

prevented

,

and

it

will

go

to

lockout

when

it

tries

to

close

the

breaker

following

a

manual

trip

.

The

SLR

12

relays

have

many

unique

features

and

a

great

deal

of

flexibility

in

how

they

may

be

employed

.

Following

is

a

description

of

how

these

features

can

be

used

in

some

special

applications

.

Please

refer

to

the

OPERATION

section

for

specific

on

each

of

the

Block

Instantaneous

Tripping

It

is

sometimes

desirable

on

distribution

circuits

to

block

the

instantaneous

trip

circuits

after

the

first

trip

but

before

the

first

reclosure

is

completed

,

thus

providing

for

coordination

with

branch

circuit

fuses

.

This

can

be

implemented

with

the

normally

-

closed

BI

contact

as

shown

in

the

simplified

connection

diagram

of

Figure

3

.

The

diagram

represents

an

application

with

time

overcurrent

(

TOC

)

and

instantaneous

overcurrent

(

IOC

)

functions

.

Note

that

the

BI

contact

opens

at

the

first

selected

reclosure

and

stays

open

during

the

remainder

of

the

reclosing

cycle

,

and

in

the

lockout

position

if

reclosing

proves

to

be

unsuccessful

.

A

contact

of

the

breaker

control

switch

is

shown

,

connected

across

the

BI

contact

.

This

control

switch

contact

,

which

is

closed

in

the

"

"

position

of

the

switch

,

is

used

to

re

establish

the

instantaneous

circuit

when

the

reclosed

with

the

relay

in

the

and

thus

allow

to

occur

two

or

even

three

times

rather

than

as

can

be

done

with

the

BI

contact

,

that

the

function

can

be

set

to

drop

out

at

the

lockout

position

;

thus

,

instantaneous

is

re

-

instated

at

that

time

and

it

is

not

necessary

to

use

the

control

described

in

the

The

normally

-

closed

RS

contact

can

be

used

to

block

the

automatic

tap

circuit

during

the

reclosing

cycle

.

The

RS

contact

would

typically

be

set

to

open

at

the

start

of

the

reclosing

cycle

and

to

close

when

lockout

is

reached

.

Selective

Reclosing

In

some

applications

it

may

be

desirable

to

initiate

instantaneous

plus

delayed

reclosures

following

a

high

-

speed

trip

,

but

to

allow

delayed

reclosures

only

,

following

a

time

-

delayed

trip

.

This

can

be

accomplished

by

applying

a

signal

from

the

time

delay

trip

bus

to

the

DR

input

of

the

SLR

relays

as

shown

in

Figure

4

.

With

this

connection

,

the

recloser

will

skip

the

instantaneous

reclosure

(

or

the

first

selected

reclosure

)

and

go

immediately

to

the

next

selected

reclosure

.

It

is

possible

to

use

the

high

-

speed

reclose

initiate

(

RI

)

output

from

the

protective

relaying

scheme

to

initiate

the

reclose

cycle

,

but

it

must

be

parallelled

by

a

breaker

"

b

"

switch

contact

as

shown

in

Figure

4

to

ensure

completion

of

the

reclose

cycle

.

It

is

also

possible

to

set

the

SLR

relays

to

provide

two

separate

single

-

shot

reclosures

,

with

each

reclosure

having

a

different

time

delay

,

might

be

desirable

to

provide

a

single

-

shot

of

reclosing

with

a

long

time

delay

for

ground

faults

,

but

to

provide

a

single

-

shot

of

faster

reclosing

for

phase

faults

.

This

can

be

accomplished

via

the

connections

shown

in

With

these

connections

and

settings

the

following

will

occur

.

For

phase

faults

-

when

a

phase

fault

occurs

,

there

will

be

no

DR

input

to

the

SLR

relay

.

Consequently

,

when

the

breaker

trips

and

the

"

b

"

switch

closes

,

the

SLR

relay

will

initiate

an

instantaneous

reclose

output

to

close

the

breaker

.

At

the

same

time

,

the

BI

contacts

will

open

to

remove

the

pause

input

.

If

the

reclosure

is

successful

,

the

SLR

will

reset

following

the

reset

time

(

BI

contacts

will

close

at

that

time

)

.

If

the

reclosure

is

not

successful

and

the

breaker

retrips

,

the

SLR

will

count

down

the

first

reclose

time

and

then

try

to

close

the

breaker

.

Reclosing

will

not

be

permitted

,

however

,

because

of

the

open

pause

input

,

and

the

SLR

will

then

immediately

go

to

lockout

.

Thus

,

only

one

reclosure

is

permitted

.

For

ground

faults

-

when

a

ground

fault

occurs

,

there

will

be

an

input

applied

to

the

DR

input

of

the

relay

(

must

be

applied

before

"

b

"

closes

)

.

At

that

time

,

the

instantaneous

reclosure

will

be

skipped

and

the

SLR

will

start

to

count

down

to

the

first

reclosure

when

the

"

b

"

switch

closes

.

The

breaker

will

thus

be

closed

following

a

delay

equal

to

the

first

reclose

time

,

reclosure

is

successful

,

the

SLR

will

go

to

reset

.

If

the

breaker

retrips

,

the

SLR

will

go

immediately

to

lockout

.

Flere

too

,

only

one

is

allowed

pause

input

,

as

shown

in

Figure

6

.

In

this

connection

,

the

synchronism

check

contact

must

be

closed

when

the

system

is

in

synchronism

and

open

when

the

system

is

out

of

synchronism

.

Thus

,

when

a

reclose

is

called

for

it

will

be

permitted

if

the

system

is

in

synchronism

,

or

blocked

if

the

system

is

out

of

synchronism

.

The

pause

time

setting

is

the

time

that

is

permitted

for

a

synchronism

check

input

to

be

produced

and

is

started

when

a

reclose

output

is

called

for

.

If

a

synchronism

check

input

is

not

present

when

the

pause

time

elapses

,

the

SLR

will

go

immediately

to

lockout

.

Note

that

a

synchronism

check

input

is

required

at

all

selected

reclosures

when

the

pause

function

is

implemented

.

If

it

is

desired

not

to

synchronism

check

a

reclosure

,

some

means

must

be

used

to

bypass

the

synchronism

check

input

at

the

reclosure

where

synchronism

check

is

not

wanted

.

For

example

,

the

RS

normally

-

closed

contact

may

be

used

to

eliminate

the

synchronism

check

requirement

for

an

instantaneous

reclosure

by

connecting

it

as

shown

dotted

in

Figure

6

.

For

this

connection

to

be

effective

for

the

described

condition

,

RS

should

be

set

to

pick

up

with

0

time

and

to

drop

out

at

lockout

.

In

this

way

,

synchronism

check

will

be

required

on

all

delayed

reclosures

but

not

on

the

instantaneous

reclosure

.

Delayed

Reset

Some

applications

may

require

a

delay

in

(

extension

of

)

the

reset

time

to

allow

certain

events

to

occur

before

the

SLR

is

allowed

to

go

to

reset

.

For

example

,

it

may

take

a

time

overcurrent

function

a

very

long

time

to

operate

for

low

-

level

ground

faults

,

whereas

the

phase

time

overcurrent

functions

may

operate

very

quickly

.

Thus

,

long

reset

times

may

be

required

to

accommodate

the

low

-

level

ground

faults

,

whereas

shorter

reset

times

may

be

required

for

phase

faults

.

The

pause

input

to

the

SLR

relays

can

be

used

to

accomplish

this

requirement

.

A

simplified

connection

diagram

to

meet

this

requirement

is

shown

in

Figure

7

.

Note

that

a

sensitively

-

set

instantaneous

overcurrent

(

IOC

)

function

and

an

auxiliary

function

79

X

are

required

.

With

this

connection

,

the

pause

input

will

be

open

whenever

IOC

operates

.

The

pause

time

will

last

as

long

as

IOC

is

picked

up

or

until

the

pause

time

elapses

,

and

the

reset

time

will

be

extended

accordingly

.

In

this

way

,

time

will

be

allowed

for

the

TOC

to

operate

before

the

SLR

resets
