3.2 General Digital Protective Relay design requirements
3.2.1 Technology and Functionality:
The Digital Protective Relay design shall be based on a microprocessor technology and shall accommodate a
hardware and software architecture consisting of a multifunction protection and control platform with
logic/analogue inputs and outputs, including Protections, Metering, Control and Monitoring, User Machine
Interface with alphanumeric display, Communication Interface, Network, Machine, Switch gear and relay
diagnosis functionalities.
3.2.2 Safety and Dependability (Functional Safety)
The Digital Protective Relay design shall be part of a safety and dependability design process of the
manufacturer, associating the four R.A.M.S parameters:
3.2.2.1 Reliability:
To define a predictive calculated and field measured MTTF, determine a  Failure Rate and a useful life

time of the digital relay.
3.2.2.2 Availability:
To prevent any nuisance or unwanted tripping by selecting the adequate settings and improve the continuity
of service.
3.2.2.3 Maintainability:
To define the Time to repair and spare part requirements in the maintenance process.
3.2.2.4 Safety:
To increase the level of protection safety without lowering the process availability according to IEC 61508
requirements and determine a S.I.L (Safety Integrity Level) capability, a P.F.D ( Probability of Failure on
Demand) and a S.F.F (Safe Failure Fraction) measuring the percentage of failures seen by the Watchdog
leading to a safe position.
The Digital Protective Relay shall therefore be fitted with an internal self-test monitoring system
(“Watchdog”) testing the relay power supply, the acquisition of current and voltages signals, the processing
unit (memories, processor(s)), software/hardware watchdog, logic inputs/outputs.
In case of an internal failure making the relay inoperant, the relay shall be set in fail-safe position leading to
a fall-back position and shall not trip the circuit breaker equipped with shunt trip coil (e.g: loss of internal or
external power supply). All the relays outputs and logic inputs shall be locked in deactivated position.
The watchdog function shall be able to activate a vertical back-up protection architecture based on an
upstream protective relay rescuing a downstream defective relay.
Any minor safe internal failure shall enable the relay to normally perform its protection functions in a
downgrading mode.
3.2.3 Programming and Configuration
The Digital Protective Relay shall be programmable and configurable with appropriate user-friendly setting
software using a MS Windows program running on a standard PC. The programming and configuration shall
be carried out locally (front access) through a RS 232 port or remotely through a communication network,
mainly an Engineering LAN (E-LAN) with adequate passwords to prevent any illegal intrusion.
Programming and configuration shall also be able to be prepared on a PC file directly (unconnected mode)
and down-loaded locally or remotely into the relay according to relevant protocol used.
3.2.4 Hardware and Software architecture
The hardware and software architecture shall be modular and disconnectable to adapt the protection and
control unit to the required level of complexity of the MV applications.
The architecture shall allow future extensions by simple and easy hardware and firmware upgrading of the
protection and control unit and shall be designed to enable upward compatibility between Digital Protective
Relay of different generations of the manufacturer.
The architecture shall provide easy cost efficient maintenance operations when changing modules.
The Protective Digital relay shall accommodate digital and isolated inputs/outputs. The inputs shall be used
to monitor the status of the complete MV panel as well as receive external signal (e.g: Buchholz, inter-trip,
etc,) while the outputs shall be used for circuit breaker or contactor control, inter-tripping between panels
and remote alarms.

- Modbus based Engineering Local Area Network (E-LAN) to configure, set up the relay, collect operating
and diagnosis information, monitor the status of the electrical network and run diagnostics on electrical
network incidents from the programming and configuration software.
4.8.2 The Digital Protective Relay shall use appropriate communication protocols depending on whether the
relay interfaces an industrial process electrical network or a power substation of electrical distribution:
- Modbus RTU, Field bus and Industry data transmission protocol, IEC 61158 foundation compliant,
through Twister-Pair cable RS 485 (2-wire or 4-wire) or Fibre Optic link.
- IEC 870-5-103, a companion standard of IEC 870-5 series to communicate between the Digital Protective
Relay and the control system (Supervisor or RTU) inside a Utility power substation, through Twisted Pair

-Integrated switches
-Copper of fibre optic link, based on ring management and open RSTP (Rapid Spanning Tree
Protocol) (IEC 62439 Ed.1 compliant and IEEE 802.1d2004
- Monitoring of electrical characteristics, device status, protection functions and alarms
- Circuit Breaker control: SBO (Select Before Operate)
- Network diagnostic: disturbance event recording system

4.9 Digital Protective Relay hardware architecture platform
As per Annexes 7
5. Tender documents
To support its technical offer description, the bidder shall submit the following documents relative to the
Digital Protective Relay:
5.1 Relay architecture single line diagrams
5.2 Technical data sheets
5.3 Catalogues
5.4 User manuals and installation guide
5.5 Test and conformity certificates
5.6 Reference lists for similar application
6. Protection relay testing, commissioning and maintenance
6.1 Testing:
Digital protective relays shall be tested prior to commissioning in order to maximise availability and
minimising the risk of malfunctioning of the assembly being commissioned.
Because of the use of digital technology the relay shall guarantee the reproducibility of announced
performances over time and shall have undergone full factory qualification.
So the Protective Digital Relay shall therefore be ready to operate without requiring any additional
qualification testing that concerns it directly
6.2 Commissioning tests:
The preliminary relay commissioning tests shall be limited to a commissioning check:
6.2.1 Checking of compliance with bill of materials and hardware installation diagrams and rules during a
preliminary general check
6.2.2 Checking of the compliance of the general settings and protection settings entered with the setting
sheets
6.2.3 Checking of current or voltage input connections by secondary injection tests
6.2.4 Checking of logic input and output connections by simulation of input data and forcing output status
All the tests shall be carried out with the MV cubicle completely isolated and the MV circuit breaker racked
out (disconnected and open)
All the test shall be performed in the operating situation with the parameter setting and operating software or
without software for relay with advanced UMI: no wiring or setting changes, even temporary changes to
facilitate testing shall be allowed.
Report and archives should be facilitated by easy software used.

6.3 Maintenance
The Digital Protective Relay shall not need any internal and specific maintenance over time, mainly for
parameter settings and after commissioning.
Nevertheless connections to the relay shall be checked preventively as well as the quality of output relay
contacts to ensure that tripping and closing coils are properly energised and all control logic orders are
properly transmitted .
Communication test possibility should be permanently performed.
