ELECTRICAL TESTS
|
Yes
|
No
|
|
|
1. Verify that only one grounding point per CT circuit is available. Disconnect the grounding point and conduct resistance measurement between the CT circuit and ground. This shall read open circuit.
|
||
|
2. Follow all commissioning procedures as per the relay instruction manual.
|
||
|
3. Apply or download the relay settings in accordance with the settings sheets or the software setting file provided by the relay engineer.
|
||
|
4. Perform pickup test on the functions activated by the relay settings and make sure that the relay trips the correct output contacts and activate the corresponding indicating LED as per the relay settings.
|
||
|
5. Perform timing tests on the functions activated by the relay settings and make sure that the relay trips the correct output contacts and activate the corresponding indicating LED as per the relay settings.
|
||
|
6. Perform stability test for all differential and directional protection schemes via primary injection for in zone and out zone faults to verify correct CT and VT connections.
|
||
|
7. Activate the digital inputs and verify their correct functions
|
||
|
8. Exercise the flex logic equations if applied by activating the required inputs and verify the outputs.
|
||
|
9. If utilized verify analogue output from relay to DCS and calibrate if necessary.
|
||
|
10. If utilized verify communication connectivity to DCS computer system.
