  1. J.V. Kelley Xcel Energy System Protection Engineering Control and Status of Simulated Breakers Using HMI

  2. Objectives • Simulate two line terminal substation in lab • For testing, training, and demonstration purposes • Use SEL (Schweitzer Engineering Labs) line relays • Simulate Breaker in Hardware • HMI (Human Machine Interface) • Control, status, and alarms of “breakers” • Learn about: • DNP (Distributed Network Protocol), • SEL RTAC (Real-Time Automation Controller ) • HMI interfaces

  3. System prior to project • One rack was built as complete line terminal • DNP functionality needed to be added • Second rack needing to be rebuilt from scratch

  4. System Overview HMI Display (PC) Mostly Pre-existing Breaker 4 Relay SEL-311C SEL-RTAC DNP Breaker 4 Relay SEL-421 Breaker 1 Relay SEL-421 Breaker 2 Relay SEL- 411L Breaker 3 Relay SEL- 321 Breaker 4 Relay SEL-351S DC Wiring Breaker Sim SEL-421 Breaker Sim SEL-351

  5. System Overview HMI Display DC Supply BKR 4 SEL-311C RTAC BKR 1 SEL-421 BKR 4 SEL-421 BKR 2 SEL-411L BKR 4 SEL-351S BKR 3 SEL-321 BKR 4 Sim SEL-351 BKR Sim SEL-421

  6. HMI Screens • One line diagram • Breaker Status and Control • Individual Breaker Pages • Breaker Status and Control • System Voltage • Reclose Enable • Carrier Cutoff

  7. HMI Screens – One line diagram • Breaker status • Color indicates open or closed • Breaker control • Double click breaker to bring up open or close commands

  8. HMI Screens – Breaker Page • Separate Page for each Breaker • Breaker Status and Control • Other commands that are used at substations

  9. RTAC • SEL-3530 RTAC • Connects to PC via USB or Ethernet • Used DNP over Ethernet to communicate with SEL-421 and SEL-411L relays • Used DNP over RS232 to communicate to SEL-321 relay

  10. New Line Relays • SEL-421, 411L, 321 • System is setup with one line-relay per breaker • Communicates with RTAC via DNP • Trips, closes and receives breaker status via 125 Volt DC discrete circuitry • Used our company standard relay inputs and outputs

  11. Existing Relays • Existing Rack Represents Single Line Terminal • SEL-421 and 311C redundant line terminal relays • SEL-351S breaker relay • Reclosing, Breaker Failure, etc. • Only SEL-421 Communicates to RTAC • DNP Over Ethernet • Trips, closes and receives breaker status via 125 Volt DC discrete circuitry

  12. Breaker Simulation • Used custom logic SEL-421 to simulate four breakers • Reasons for 421 • Availability • Buttons, lights, timers are contained in one unit • Easier wiring than original plan • Programming could be expanded to allow for different failures • Breaker failure, Slow trip, fast reclose, etc.

  13. Breaker Simulation - Wiring

  14. Breaker Simulation - Logic Pushbutton 1: Changes state of outputs and LED OUT201: Breaker Status (52A) OUT205: Opposite state of Out201 IN205: Closes Out201 IN101 or IN201: Opens Out201

  15. Demonstration Videos • Breaker Simulator Relay • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNYTjGcUGc • One Line Diagram on HMI • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sALi8z87p4k • Single Breaker HMI Page • https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J4-1fQuhJW4

  16. Testing – HMI

  17. Testing – Breaker Simulator

  18. Challenges • Choosing hardware and laying out wiring • Obtaining hardware and software • Learning to use the SEL graphical logic to get breaker simulator working • Getting logged in and communicating to all devices • Passwords, baud rates, and IP addresses weren’t always easy to find • Learning to use DNP map in relays

  19. Challenges • Learning about RTAC as absolute beginner • SEL has a helpful video series on YouTube that starts at more basic level than the manual • Getting first status point working from relays • Getting first control point working from relays • Learning to use Diagram Builder • Getting diagram to display

  20. Future • Get DNP to SEL-321 working • Bring back more alarms and statuses to HMI • Add different types of failures to breaker simulator

  21. The end
