of transients on protective relays In high-voltage substations VTs are connected to protective relays The input stage of these relays is equipped with inductive magnetic VTs ensuring galvanic insulation These transformers are very small in size and their primary winding is made with very thin wires Consequently, they are very sensitive to the presence of any d.c component at their input This d.c component can induce a saturation of their magnetic circuits The resulting overcurrent can cause a thermal breakdown of the primary winding Care should be taken by the user and manufacturer to verify the effect of the electronic VT on the relays during the presence of trapped charges This is particularly important if the low-power voltage transformer has an output amplified to emulate conventional voltage transformers (above ±15 V peak) and is capable of transmitting direct voltage, or voltage at very low frequency 6C.3.2 Definition of transient error The instantaneous voltage error is defined by the following formula: ε (t ) % = u ⋅ us ( t ) u p ( t ) K− up 100 where ε u (t) % is the instantaneous voltage error; Kr is the rated transformation ratio 6C.3.3 Test of transient performance 6C.3.3.1 Transient performance test for capacitive voltage transformers In IEC 61869-5, CVTs are subject to transient performance requirements, the primary short circuit alone being taken into consideration The test can be done by recording two signals The first is the output of the CVT The second is the output of a reference device representing the primary voltage and giving an accurate determination of the instant at which the short circuit occurs The performance is simply controlled by direct measurement of the residual value of the first signal 6C.3.3.2 6C.3.3.2.1 Transient performance test for low-power voltage transformers General The instantaneous voltage error for transient conditions is defined by the following formula: ε (t ) % = u ⋅ us ( t ) u p ( t ) K− up 100 This formula can be rewritten as follows: ε K up (t ) r × 100 up r ( t ) % = u (t ) s u K Using the steady-state error definition BS EN 61869-6:2016 – 74 – ε %= u IEC 61869-6:2016 IEC 2016 Kr ⋅U - U s U p × 100 p U p can be expressed by a function of U s Up = K rU s + ε u 100 Replacing U p by this expression in the previous formula gives ε (1 + εu / 100) × 100 up (t ) us r ( t ) % = u (t ) s u K Taking into account that εu 100 Thus, the formula above becomes reduced to ε u %(t ) = u s (t ) Us × 100 which is the mathematical expression of the requirement expressed in this standard NOTE U s is the peak value of the low-power voltage transformers secondary output voltage for t < (before the short circuit occurs) This simplified formula makes use of a calibrated primary voltage reference for primary BS EN 61869-6:2016 IEC 61869-6:2016 IEC 2016 – 75 – short circuit testing unnecessary Only one time reference is needed to identify the precise moment at which the short circuit occurs 6C.3.3.2.3 Reclosure on a line with trapped charges For t < u p (t) = u p dc (t) + u p res (t) u s (t) = u s res (t) dc (t) + us For t > u p(t) = U p ⋅ sin(2π ⋅ f ⋅ t + ϕ p) + u p res(t) u s(t) = U s ⋅ sin(2π ⋅ f ⋅ t + ϕ s) + u s dc(t) + u s res(t) Then for t > ε u × 100 up (t ) us r (t ) % = us (t ) - K1 Replacing u s (t) and u p (t) by their expression, we get ε u %(t ) = ε u ac %(t ) + ε u tr %(t ) with ε u ac %(t ) = U s sin( 2p ⋅ f ⋅ t + ϕs ) − (U p K r ) sin( p f ⋅ t + ϕ p ) e u tr %(t ) = Us us dc (t ) + us res (t ) − (up res (t ) K r ) Us × 100 × 100 The first term ε utr %(t) contains only sinusoidal components and is the steady-state error of the low-power voltage transformer If the low-power voltage transformer is correctly adjusted, it can be neglected considering the second term ε utr %(t) which is the error's transient component The worst case is where up dc (0) = FVU s The time constant of the low-power voltage transformer component u sdc (t) has a substantial influence on the choice of a test procedure We shall distinguish two cases: long- and short time constants 6C.3.3.2.4 Short time constants If u sdc (t) decays with a time constant less than 100 ms, a realistic test arrangement is possible, as shown in Figure 6C.4 BS EN 61869-6:2016 – 76 – IEC 61869-6:2016 IEC 2016 CB1 CB2 e2 e1 ≈ Ref LPVT C Line u ref (t) u s (t) Diff u diff (t) = u ref (t) – u s

graph in Figure 6E.1 shows the accuracy limits of a multipurpose low-power current transformer (i.e an LPIT which obeys measuring and protective requirements), which is also specified for transient response The marks show at which primary current the accuracy is actually tested during type tests The lines show in which primary current range the accuracy is supposed to be maintained Accuracy for measuring (amplitude error) Error % Accuracy for protection (composite error) Accuracy for transient response (peak) Ipr I epr = K pcr ⋅ I pr KALF ⋅ Ipr Ipsc = Ith Kssc ⋅ Ipr Ip IEC Figure 6E.1 – Accuracy limits of a multi-purpose low-power current transformer If an application requires a small deviation between the phase and/or amplitude error between the low-power current transformers on different phases, the user shall select a set of lowpower current transformers with similar calibration data, as is also done with conventional transformers The calibration data is available from routine testing A special test is not needed BS EN 61869-6:2016 IEC 61869-6:2016 IEC 2016 – 85 – Bibliography IEC 60044-7:1999, Instrument transformers – Part 7: Electronic voltage transformers IEC
