APPLICATION

DESCRIPTION Twelve standard time-current characteristics are available

The BE1-67 Phase Directional Overcurrent Relay is
designed for the protection of transmission and distribu-
tion lines where the direction as well as the magnitude of
the fault current (or power flow) are to be considered in
the tripping decision.

devices in the system (Table 1). These include seven
characteristics that are standard in North America and
five that are compatible with British or IEC Standard
requirements. An internal switch is provided to select the
desired characteristic.

FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
The specifications on these pages define the features
and options that can be combined to exactly satisfy an
application requirement. The block diagram (Figure 4)
illustrates how the various standard features, as well as
the options, function together.
INPUTS
Current Sensing
Current sensing can be selected as either single-phase
or three-phase as determined by the style chart. Each
current sensing transformer of the relay (1 per phase)
receives the output from the (5 A nominal) secondary
of a standard system current transformer.
per input. Two current sensing frequencies are offered:
50 Hz or 60 Hz.
The maximum 1-second current rating is 50 x the
maximum tap current selected, or 500 A, whichever is
less. For ratings other than those specified by the time
curves, the rating is calculated as follows:
I = (50 X tap value or 500 A, whichever is less)
T
where I = Maximum current
T = Time of current flow in seconds
Voltage Sensing

Each current sensing input has a sensing range of 0.5 to The voltage sensing input transformers receive their
12.0 A. The continuous current capability is rated at 20 input from 120 Volt nominal secondary, standard

FIGURE 5. CHARACTERISTIC ANGLE (ALPHA)

The directional unit is front-panel adjustable by the TIMED TRIP

CHARACTERISTIC PHASE ANGLE control and the
(optional) LIMITED REGION OF OPERATION adjustment.
Both are described below.
Characteristic Angle
The CHARACTERISTIC ANGLE control determines the
characteristic angle (α) of Figure 5. This causes the
characteristic of the directional unit to be rotated so that
maximum sensitivity can match the impedance angle of
the protected line. The tripping characteristic of the relay
is then defined by a line that is normal to α. (The slight
bow in the trip/no trip boundary at the origin is caused by
the minimum sensitivity of the directional element:
0.02A and 1.0V.)
The CHARACTERISTIC ANGLE control may be a potenti-
ometer (Options 3-1, 3-2, 3-5, and 3-6) or a 4-position
switch (Options 3-2 and 3-4). Once established, angles
are repeatable to within ±5° at nominal frequency. The
potentiometer control has a range of 0-90°. When the
control is a switch, the four discrete settings are 30°, 45°,
60°, and 75°.
When the phase relationship between current and
voltage does not fall within the parameters of the direc-
tional element, an inhibit signal illuminates the appropri-
ate PHASE INHIBIT indicator and prevents operation of
the time overcurrent function. This signal also inhibits
operation of the (optional) directional instantaneous
overcurrent element. (Inhibit signals are generated
independently for each sensed phase.)
Limited Region of Operation (Option)
Figure 5a indicates the region in which tripping is al-
lowed: the shaded half-plane bounded by a line normal
to IZ at the origin.
Timed trip is a standard feature of the relay. Pickup is
determined by the TAP SELECT and the TAP CAL con-
trols. When the overcurrent condition exceeds the pre-
selected pickup point and the directional unit has re-
moved its inhibit signal (indicating that direction is proper
for tripping), timing is initiated. If these conditions persist
for sufficient time, time-out will occur and the final output
will energize.
Various timing characteristics are available and are
defined by Figures 7 through 18. Individual curves of the
designated set are selected by use of the front-panel time
dial. The time dial is adjustable from 00 to 99 in incre-
ments of 01.
Timing accuracy is within ±5% or 50ms, whichever is
greater, of the time indicated by the characteristic curve
for any combination of time dial and pickup setting.
Timings are repeatable to within ±2% or 50ms, whichever
is greater.
INSTANTANEOUS TRIP (Option 1-1 or 1-3)
The instantaneous pickup point is front-panel adjustable
from 1 to 40 times the selected pickup setting for timed
trip. When the overcurrent condition exceeds the pickup
point by the selected multiple, the instantaneous output
relay energizes, assuming that:
1. The instantaneous option is non-directional
(i.e., Option 1-1); or
2. The instantaneous option is directional (Option 1-3)
and the sensed current is in the trip direction.

The tripping region may be reduced (as illustrated in

Figure 5b) by means of the front panel LIMITED REGION
OF OPERATION control. This control is continuously
adjustable (with reference to angle B) from ±5° to ±90°.

MICROPROCESSOR
The microprocessor is ultimately responsible for all
timing functions, control functions, magnitude compari-
sons, and decision making within the relay. The BE1-67
utilizes an 8-bit CMOS microprocessor to accomplish
these functions.
POWER SUPPLY STATUS OUTPUT (OPTION)
A normally closed (NC) output contact is provided to
indicate the failure of the relay power supply. Under
normal operating conditions, and with power applied to
the relay, this output relay is energized and its contact is
open. If the power supply ceases to provide proper
operating voltages to the internal circuitry, the output
relay de-energizes and the contact closes.
Removing the relay from its case will also give a closed
(or out-of-service) indication.
OUTPUTS
Targets for this relay are further classified as either element
targets or function targets. All element targets are internally
operated and indicate the particular phase or phases

associated with the primary tripping functions of relay. All
function targets within a specific unit are of the same type,
either all current operated or all internally operated.

Accessible with a thin non-conducting rod through the front
panel, push-to-energize pushbuttons are available to
energize each output relay for testing the external control/
protective system wiring.
