Efficient Application of Digital-Analog Integrated Relay Protection Test Sets in Power System Operation and Maintenance

I.Core Product Advantages

  • Integration of Digital and Analog Dual Modes
    • Supports digital signal output (e.g., SV, GOOSE) under the IEC 61850 standard, compatible with digital protection testing in smart substations.
    • Simultaneously possesses high-precision analog output (voltage, current) for testing traditional electromagnetic and microprocessor-based protection devices.
    • Achieves "one instrument for the entire substation," significantly improving testing efficiency and reducing equipment procurement and maintenance costs.
  • High Precision and High Stability
    • Pure output current and voltage waveforms, with precise control of amplitude, phase, and frequency, meeting international standards such as IEC 60255.
    • Built-in high-performance power amplifier module supports long-duration high-current output, suitable for complex test scenarios like circuit breaker tripping tests and differential protection tests.
  • Intelligent Test Software Platform
    • Comes with professional test software supporting automatic testing, vector analysis, harmonic analysis, differential characteristic testing, state sequence simulation, and other functions.
    • Provides a graphical user interface, allowing users to customize test sequences, generate test reports with one click, and export in formats like PDF and Excel for easy archiving and auditing.
  • Portable Design and High Reliability
    • Lightweight design for easy portability on site; features good electromagnetic compatibility and protection rating, adaptable to harsh field environments.
    • Built-in high-performance battery supports extended field operation, suitable for various scenarios such as substation inspection, commissioning, and fault排查 (troubleshooting).

II. Typical Application Scenarios

  1. Smart Substation Commissioning and Acceptance
    • Application Need:​ Smart substations use the IEC 61850 communication protocol, with protection devices receiving samples via SV and tripping via GOOSE; traditional analog test sets cannot perform closed-loop testing.
    • Solution:​ Use the digital interfaces of this test set to simulate a Merging Unit (MU) outputting SV messages, while simultaneously receiving GOOSE trip signals from the protection device, achieving complete "digital protection closed-loop testing."
    • Value Delivered:​ Significantly improves commissioning efficiency, ensures the correctness of smart substation protection logic, and shortens the commissioning cycle.
  2. Traditional Relay Protection Periodic Testing
    • Application Need:​ Periodic testing of line protection, transformer protection, busbar protection, etc., requires testing protection functions such as overcurrent, distance, earth fault, and differential.
    • Solution:​ Using the analog output module, accurately apply fault currents and voltages to automatically complete tests for parameters like protection pickup values, operating times, and reset ratios.
    • Value Delivered:​ Automates the testing process, reduces human error, and improves test consistency and traceability.
  3. Fault Replay and Incident Analysis
    • Application Need:​ After a grid fault occurs, it is necessary to replay the fault waveform to verify the protection device's operation.
    • Solution:​ Import COMTRADE fault recording files; the test set can accurately replay the fault event to verify if the protection device responded correctly.
    • Value Delivered:​ Assists in incident analysis, improves fault handling capability, and aids in optimizing protection settings.
  4. Training and Skill Assessment
    • Application Need:​ Power companies require practical training and skill assessment for protection personnel.
    • Solution:​ Utilize the test set's various fault simulation functions to build typical test scenarios for practical training and assessment of protection personnel.
    • Value Delivered:​ Enhances the overall technical level of the O&M team, ensuring the safe operation of the power grid.
