Why Upgrade? Generator and Transformer
• Existing generator and transformer protection (more than 5 years or nondigital) may:
– Cause protection security issues
• Tripping on through-faults, external faults, swings, load encroachment and energizing
– May lack comprehensive monitoring and communications capabilities
• Not provide valuable forensic info that can lead to rapid restoration
– Not be up to ANSI/IEEE Standards!
– Insurance, Asset Reliability and Personal Liability Issues

• C37.91: Guide for Transformer Protection

IEEE PSRC Survey
– Conducted in early ’90s, showed many areas of protection lacking
– Unwillingness to upgrade:
• Lack of expertise
– To recognize deficiency
– To perform the work
• “Generators don’t trip” (wrong)
• Operating procedures will save the day

Desirable Attributes - Generator
– Reverse Power (32)
• Should be sensitive to 0.05 pu to properly detect motoring in large steam turbines
– Existing E/M and Static relays not sensitive enough
– May cause shutdown difficulties
– Negative Sequence (46)
• Should be sensitive to low values to detect open poles/conductors on system after GSU
– Existing E/M and Static relays not sensitive enough
• Long time low level events may cause excessive rotor heating, thermal tripping and
damage rotor
– 100% Stator Ground (59N / 59D)
• Protects all of the stator winding
– Existing schemes typically only see 90%
– Stop low level fault near neutral from degrading into a high level fault and causing large
amounts of damage
– Very secure
25
Desirable Attributes - Generator
• Inadvertent Energizing (50/27)
– High speed tripping of unit after breaker accidentally closed on dead
machine, also pole flashover prior to syncing
• Most existing schemes do not incorporate
– Many schemes fail due to complexity (reliance on breaker auxiliary
switches, yard distance relays, etc.
– If breaker is not tripped rapidly, mechanical and electric damage can
occur to machine in fractions of a second!
– Pole flashovers must be cleared by high speed breaker failure, as the
breaker is open!
