Checking Residual Current
Input Connections
Description
Perform this check when residual current is measured
by a specific sensor such as:
b CSH120 or CSH200 zero sequence CT
b CSH30 interposing ring CT (installed either on
the secondary circuit of a single 1A or 5A CT
which encompasses the three phases, or on the
neutral connection of the three 1A or 5A phase
CTs)
b other zero sequence CT connected to an
ACE990 interface,
Perform this test when residual voltage is calculated in
Sepam™, or cannot be calculated, as in an assembly
with two VTs connected through their primary circuits.
These are not available for the protection function.
Procedure
1 Connect according to the diagram below:
b a wire between the generator current terminals to inject current into the
primary circuit of the zero sequence CT or CT, with the wire passing through
the zero sequence CT or CT in the Pa-Pb direction, with Pa the bus end and
Pb the cable end
b when applicable, the generator voltage terminals to the voltage test terminal
box, so as to only supply Sepam’s phase A voltage input and therefore obtain
a residual voltage Vr = Va.
2 Turn the generator on.
3 When applicable, apply a VN voltage set to the rated secondary phase-to-neutral
voltage of the VT (V
Ln
s = V
LL
s / 3).
4 Inject an I current set to 5A, and when applicable in phase with the VN voltage
applied (specifically, generator phase displacement α(VN, I) = 0°).

DE50359
Sepam™ Series 80 is equipped with two
independent residual current inputs which
can be connected to a zero sequence CT
installed on the cables, tank grounding
cable or neutral point of a transformer, or on the
grounding cable of a motor or generator. In some
cases, reading of the
ϕ
0 or
ϕ
’0 angle is impossible due
to the position of the zero sequence CT (for
example,for example, transformer neutral point or tank
grounding cable) or because only one of the two I0 or
V0 measurements is necessary or possible. When this
is the case, simply check the measured residual current
value Ir or I’r.
5
Use the SFT2841 software to check the following:
b the value indicated for the measured Ir residual current is approximately
equal to 5A
b when applicable, the value indicated for calculated Vr residual voltage is
approximately equal to the rated primary phase-to-neutral voltage of the VTs
(VNp = V
LLp
/ 3)
b when applicable, the value indicated for the phase displacement ϕr(Vr, Ir)
between the Ir current and Vr voltage is approximately equal to 0°
6 Use the same procedure if the I’r input is connected. When this is the case, the
phase displacement angle to be checked is ϕ’r(V’r, I’r), between the I’r current
and Vr voltage.
7 Turn off the generator when the test is completed.
