6 FAQs about [Capacitor differential voltage protection specification standard]
What are the functions of differential voltage protection?
Fundamental voltage measurement only. Three functions of differential voltage protection are considered. Firstly, an alarm pick-up which is usually at 1.05 per unit of the capacitor element rating . This function is performed on a per phase basis. Secondly, a trip pick-up which is set to 1.1 per unit of the capacitor element rating .
What is a capacitor bank protective scheme?
Capacitor bank protective schemes must be designed and applied to provide the signals required for protective relaying to perform as expected. This document provides guidance to help engineers draft comprehensive and clear purchasing specifications for capacitor banks.
What is a shunt capacitor bank protection guide?
Purpose: This guide has been prepared to assist protection engineers in the application of relays and other devices for the protection of shunt capacitor banks used in substations. It covers methods of protection for many commonly used shunt capacitor bank configurations including the latest protection techniques.
Are pole-mounted capacitor banks protected?
Discussions on the protection of pole-mounted capacitor banks on distribution circuits or capacitors connected to the terminals of rotating machines are not included as they are outside the scope of this standard. Scope: This guide applies to the protection of shunt power capacitor banks and filter capacitor banks.
What are the points of consideration for differential voltage protection?
Points of consideration are relay element stability (minimum element stability), independence of phase angle of the two (bus and tap) voltage inputs, and rejection of harmonic voltages to prevent mal-operation. Figure 10 shows the set up of the differential voltage protection application. The set up shows:
What is the maximum voltage rating for a capacitor?
IEEE 18 specifies certain physical dimensions for capacitor units, such as spacing between bushings and the mounting hole spacing. The spacing between bushings determines the maximum unit voltage rating, which is typically 20kV for two bushing units and 25kV for single bushing units.
