Outputs
Outputs are delivered to the advanced protection and automation system via connected products, Edge Control software, and services.
Protection Schemes
A wide range of protection functions are available via PowerLogic P5 and P3 relays to meet the requirements of electrical utilities point of connection and MV electrical systems:
-
Feeder Protection (ANSI 67/67N, 50BF)
-
Generator Protection (ANSI 50/51, 24, 64REF)
-
Transformer Protection (ANSI 87T, 50/51)
-
Motor Protection (ANSI 27/59, 49, 66)
-
Arc Flash Protection

Automation Schemes
PowerLogic C5 processes real-time and fault-tolerant automation schemes based on the IEC 61131-3 standard over interoperable IEC 61850 Ethernet network communication services for a more autonomous response of MV electrical system applications:
-
Fast Self-Healing (in less than 300 ms)
-
Redundant Automatic Transfer Switch / Power Transfer Switch (ATS/PTS)
-
Load-shedding
-
Load-restore
-
Genset Capacity Management

Events and Alarms
Events and alarms are uploaded from connected products or generated by the Edge Control software (EcoStruxure Power Operation or EcoStruxure Power Automation System Gateway). They are displayed in native event and alarm viewers with chronological display and sorting/filtering capabilities.
Chronological views include:
-
All alarms and events, acknowledged or unacknowledged alarms, summary alarms or incidents.
-
High-speed and high-precision sequence of events to quickly locate the source of a power outage.
-
Traceability of user control actions with operator name and timestamp.
Trends
Historical and real-time electrical and other measured data can be displayed as trends in Edge Control software. Multiple measurements from selected devices can be viewed with dynamic scaling on a configurable time range. Additionally, target lines can be applied to trended data.
Remote Control
In the event of a halt in the automation system (due to improper operating conditions) or for maintenance, the user is able to issue external control actions (both from EcoStruxure Power Operation or the front panel of the device), such as open/close orders or resetting of alarms.
