Distance protection (ANSI 21, 21N)

The main function of the 7SA6 is a non-
switched distance protection. By parallel
calculation and monitoring of all six imped-
ance loops, a high degree of sensitivity and
selectivity is achieved for all types of fault.
The shortest tripping time is less than one
cycle. All methods of neutral-point connec-
tion (resonant earthing, isolated, solid or
low-resistance earthing) are reliably dealt
with. Single-pole and three-pole tripping is
possible. Overhead lines can be equipped
with or without series capacitor compensa-
tion. Fig. 6/8
Four pickup methods Impedance fault detection Z<

The following pickup methods can be em-
ployed alternatively:
• Overcurrent pickup I>>
6 • Voltage-dependent overcurrent pickup
V/I
• Voltage-dependent and phase angle-
dependent overcurrent pickup V/I/ϕ
• Impedance pickup Z<
Load zone
The pickup mode with quadrilateral imped-
ance pickup (Z<) is fitted with a variable
load zone. In order to guarantee a reliable
discrimination between load operation and
short-circuit (especially on long high loaded
lines), the relay is equipped with a selectable
load encroachment characteristic. Imped-
ances within this load encroachment char-
acteristic prevent the distance zones from
unwanted tripping. Fig. 6/9 Fig. 6/10
Voltage and angle- dependent overcurrent Angle pickup for the V / I / ϕ fault detection
Absolute phase-selectivity fault detection V / I / ϕ
The 7SA6 distance protection incorporates a
well-proven, highly sophisticated phase se-
lection algorithm. The pickup of unfaulted
phases is reliably eliminated. This phase se-
lection algorithm achieves single-pole trip-
ping and correct distance measurement in a
wide application range. Interference to dis-
tance measurement caused by parallel lines
can be compensated by taking the earth cur-
rent of the parallel system into account.
This parallel line compensation can be taken
into account both for distance measure-
ment and for fault locating.
Fig. 6/11
Distance zones with circle
characteristic

Six distance zones

Five independent distance zones and one
separate overreach zone are available. Each
distance zone has dedicated time stages,
partially separate for single-phase and
three-phase faults. Earth faults are detected
by monitoring the earth current 3I0 and the
zero-sequence voltage 3V0. The quadrilateral
tripping characteristic allows use of separate
settings for the X and the R directions. Differ-
ent R settings can be employed for earth and
phase faults. This characteristic offers advan-
tages in the case of faults with fault resistance.
For applications to medium-voltage cables

with low line angles, it may be advantageous
to select the distance zones with the optional
circle characteristic.

Total storage time > 15 s This unit conforms to the international standard IEC 60255, and the Ger-
man standard DIN 57435/Part 303 (corresponding to VDE 0435/Part 303).
Binary channels Pickup and trip information; number
Further applicable standards: ANSI/IEEE C37.90.0 and C37.90.1.
and contents can be freely configured
by the user This conformity is the result of a test that was performed by Siemens AG in
accordance with Article 10 of the Council Directive complying with the
Max. number of displayed binary 40 generic standards EN 50081-2 and EN 50082-2 for the EMC Directive and
channels standard EN 60255-6 for the “low-voltage Directive”.
Control
Number of switching units Depends on the number of binary /
indication inputs and indication /
command outputs
Control commands Single command / double command
1, 1 plus 1 common or 2 pole
Feed back CLOSE, TRIP, intermediate position
Interlocking Freely configurable
Local control Control via menu, function keys,
