Introduction
Advanced digital instrumentation for power systems The M300 Power Analysis and Measurement Centre uses numerical technology to achieve high accuracy over a wide dynamic measuring range. It provides harmonic analysis and waveform recording facilities, as well as instantaneous and integrated power systems parameters. Housed in a 192mm x 144mm x 137mm case (Noryl GFN 2 SEI), the M300 is compact, rugged, and ideal for panel mounting (M301) or DIN rail mounting (M302) in power distribution systems.

Applications
M300 applications include; Accurate monitoring of instantaneous and integrated values Maximum and average demand together with power control information Energy measurement to IEC 687 Class 0.5S Power quality monitoring using waveform recording and harmonic analysis Sophisticated communications facilities for use with control and monitoring systems at all levels

Offline values(1) Waveform data Harmonic analysis up to the 60th harmonic Notes: (1) Available via communications port only. Voltage and current All voltage and current values are true rms quantities up to the fifteenth harmonic. Power and energy Active, reactive and apparent power are calculated per phase and as a total. Independent calculations are also made for each of the following parameters: Total import value of active energy Total import value of reactive energy Total export value of active energy Total export value of reactive energy Harmonics The harmonic content of power system waveforms needs careful monitoring to avoid overheating of equipment such as motors and transformers. The M300 measurement centre provides real time harmonic analysis, up to the 15th harmonic. An alarm can be set to activate at a particular %THD level. The relative amplitude of each harmonic is sent via the communications port. The percentage total harmonic distortion (%THD) is available on the front panel, and via the communications port. For examination of harmonics above the fifteenth, it is possible to derive values offline up to the 60th harmonic using the waveform capture function. Alarms Alarms are available for measured parameters, including THD (but excluding individual harmonics). In total 32 alarms are available, each with a high and low setting. Each alarm can be individually assigned to any parameter, and multiple alarms can be set to any parameter.

Pulsed outputs Any of the four optional output relays can be configured as pulsed outputs for use with external energy applications. Digital inputs The two status inputs can be configured to be used for demand or real time clock synchronisation, pulse counting, breaker status monitoring, or volt free contact sensing. DC input An isolated DC input is provided, which can be used for a transducer input. Analogue outputs The analogue output option provides four current outputs proportional to, volts, current, watts, VArs, VA, PF or frequency. The range can be selected from the front panel, including dual slope and suppressed zero ranges. Waveform capture In this mode, the device takes fast samples of data from any specified phase. This provides 192 samples per cycle for two cycles on both volts and current for the selected phase, which can then be exported for analysis. Waveform recording The waveform recorder can record all 6 directly measured phases, 1 DC input, the opto inputs, the alarm status and 1 timer channel. The recorder can be triggered from any alarm set point, via the front panel, over the communications link or from the status inputs. Two sample rates can be selected, 24 samples per cycle or 48 samples per cycle. The waveform recorder holds a total of 1728 samples, which can be configured as 1, 2, 3 or 4 records, allowing a maximum single record length of 72 cycles or up to 4 records of 18 cycles at 24 samples per cycle. Software is available to allow records to be accessed and displayed by a PC. When all of the records are full, they will not be overwritten until a specific Clear Records command is issued.

I/O identification It is possible to assign a label to status inputs and relay outputs within the menu structure.

Hardware Description
The M300 is housed in a DIN case, with maximum dimensions 192mm by 144mm by 137mm. The M300 can operate in single phase or any three or four wire balanced or unbalanced configuration. Either model can be accessed via the remote communications facility. Additionally for the model M301, the front panel contains a 2 x 20 character alphanumeric back-lit liquid crystal display (LCD). The back-light can be set to be permanently lit or permanently off by means of the front panel keys. Seven push-buttons provide local access to the M301s menu. There are also 4 light emitting diodes (LED) for visual indication of the device status, ie. Out of Service, Setpoint (exceeded), Trip (alarm tripped), Alarm (device malfunction). Current connections are by means of M4 terminal blocks. The RS232 port uses a 9 pin DIN connector. All other connections are by means of M3.5 terminal blocks.

Communications
Two communications ports are provided on the measurement centre. These are a 9 pin DIN connector for RS232 and a threeway M3.5 terminal block for K Bus/ RS485. Communications protocol Either connection can be configured for use with MODBUS or Courier protocol. The other connection will automatically be configured to the alternative protocol. For MODBUS connections, MODBUS RTU protocol is used, enabling remote command and control from any MODBUS master, using a master/slave configuration. Courier is a language that was originally developed for use with ALSTOMs range of protective relays, providing highly secure and robust access to the device menus and control functions. Courier is based on a master - slave system, whereby devices only respond when requested to do so by the master station. All information is stored in the devices to form a distributed database which, combined with the generic nature of Courier, provides for ongoing product developments without the need for software updates. Password protection Password protection is provided on settings which alter the configuration of the device.

Configuration
It is possible to configure the following features: Alarms and alarm levels Digital inputs Digital outputs Analogue outputs Waveform recorder Event recorder Real time clock These may be defined by the user using the front panel function keys, or remotely by a PC via the communications system.

Ancillary Functions
Real time clock A software real time clock is included in order to enable timestamping of alarm and waveform records. It is software based and can be synchronised by the use of one of the digital inputs or a communications command. Test features A number of features are provided to enable this device to be thoroughly tested during commissioning, routine maintenance and fault finding operations: Power-on diagnostics Continuous self monitoring The on/off states of the digital inputs and relay outputs can be displayed

User Interface
Front panel user interface The features of the M301 can be accessed through a menu driven system. The menu is arranged in the form of a table, into each column of which, related items (menu cells) are grouped. The front panel LCD displays one menu cell at a time. The four arrow keys enable intuitive manouvering around the menu. Remote access user interface The menu can also be accessed via the remote communications facility. This enables data to be displayed in various formats on a PC using the MICOM S10 software, Courier or MODBUS software, or the customers preferred package. Changes to the menu cells can be made from the PC keyboard, using the Courier or MODBUS setting software.

Glossary
Courier A communications language developed to provide generic control, monitoring, data extraction and setting changes on remote devices within the substation environment. K-Bus The 64kbit/s twisted pair cable used to connect Courier compatible devices and transfer Courier data. Modbus A communications protocol widely used in industry, usually over RS485 or RS232 links. PC Personal computer Waveform recording A recorder for the individual samples taken as data from the relevant inputs. This is similar in operation to the disturbance recorder provided within our numerical protection relays, but operates at 24 or 48 samples per cycle, and is scaled to nominal rather than to fault values. It is used for monitoring voltage sags and surges and other similar phenomena.
