power distribution solution (PDS)E50001-F710-A123-X-4A00

About this guide

The purpose of this application guide is to help the reader configure a Smart-Gear PDS switchgear lineup. Each section contains information important in selecting equipment to meet requirements for today’s modern medium-voltage switchgear.

To make it easy to configure a Smart-Gear PDS switchgear lineup, the various selections in this application guide are presented as building blocks, called application modules. These application modules are described in detail using tables and one-line diagrams.

Each section contains information to help the reader determine the power distribution system configuration that best meets their application, protection, operation and overall functionality needs.

Please note the information contained in this application guide is a general description of the technical options available for Smart-Gear PDS. Certain features or configurations may not be applicable or appropriate for your specific needs.

Smart-GearTM power distribution solution (PDS)

Siemens Energy, Inc., a world leader in innovative technologies, has taken another step forward by creating the total solution in medium-voltage, metal-clad switchgear.

In response to our customers' need for standard switchgear that is programmable and self-monitoring, Siemens has combined its advanced switchgear, protective relay products and its engineering experience to deliver a total package to customers: Smart-GearTM power distribution solution (PDS).

With Smart-Gear PDS, users are provided the following features and benefits:

Reduced control wiring for increased reliability ‒ digital and fiber-optic circuits instead of hard-wired circuits

Self-monitoring ‒ feature-rich increased operational reliability

Programmable ‒ easy to implement complex schemes with flexibility for future changes

IEC 61850 communication protocol providing integrated control, monitoring and protection

Usage-based preventive maintenance notification

Faster commissioning and start up.

Smart-Gear PDS is equipped with standard self-monitoring features, designed specifically to enhance the performance and reliability of the switchgear. With Smart-Gear PDS, the user is notified in advance of potential problems such as those in trip circuit and space heater circuits. Also, based on the usage of the equipment, the user will be notified when periodic recommended preventive maintenance is needed.

Using IEC 61850 communication protocol, all control, monitoring and protection functions are accomplished through a redundant fiber-optic connection between protective relays and bay controllers. This communications capability reduces the need for much of the control wiring necessary to implement and change complex schemes, resulting in reduced field testing and commissioning time.

Nothing contained in this application guide will constitute a warranty or guarantee by Siemens that the Smart-Gear PDS or the configurations described in this guide are fit for your intended purposes. Your local Siemens representative will be happy to assist you with configuring a solution to meet your specific needs.

Application-based approach: A new way of specifying switchgear

An application-based approach to configuring switchgear offers a new way of thinking. For example, with an application-based approach, all switchgear functions including automatic transfer schemes, circuit breaker types, protection schemes and other special switchgear functions are described in terms of application modules. When combined, these application modules define the operation and configuration of a Smart-Gear PDS solution.

All software programs and digital and hard-wired circuits used to perform specific operations or protective functions are referred to as apps, which are protective relay hardware and software programming (continuous function chart (CFC) programming) designed specifically for application modules.

Overview

Smart-GearTM PDS is a programmable and self-monitoring power distribution solution that combines Siemens type GM-SG non-arc-resistant or type GM-SG-AR arc-resistant, medium-voltage switchgear and Siemens SIPROTEC protective relay technology to offer one of the most advanced standardized switchgear solutions in the industry. With its standard self-monitoring features and programmable capabilities, Smart-Gear PDS redefines how switchgear is specified, engineered, operated, installed and maintained.

Feature rich

Smart-Gear PDS is rich in standard features, specifically designed to monitor critical functions such as trip circuit integrity, space heater operation, vacuum interrupter wear, circuit breaker status, operations and more.

In traditional switchgear, many of these functions and features have to be specified and engineered specifically to the order, but with Smart-Gear PDS these self-monitoring features are standard. For a list and description of these features and more, refer to the smart features section beginning on page 6.

Switchgear

Smart-Gear PDS is available across the entire GM-SG product family with Siemens type GM-SG or type GM-SG-AR metal-clad switchgear through 15 kV.

For more detailed information on Siemens type GM-SG metal-clad switchgear, refer to Siemens type GM-SG selection and application guide E50001-A122-X-4A00, Web site at www.usa.siemens.com/energy or contact your local Siemens representative.

Since a Smart-Gear PDS switchgear lineup has fewer control devices, it provides increased functionality and reliability. This also means fewer control wires with greater flexibility for modifications and future changes or expansion with digital circuitry.

Smart-Gear PDS is one of the most advanced standardized medium-voltage switchgear solutions in the industry.

Overview

Protective relays and metering

Smart-GearTM PDS is supplied with the most advanced protective relays in the industry, Siemens SIPROTEC protective relays. These protective relays are fully equipped with the advanced protection functions and Ethernet-based IEC 61850 communications protocol over a redundant fiber-optic cable for high-speed data transmission. Refer to protection functions and metering section beginning on page 24 for a detailed description of the protective relay functions provided with Smart-Gear PDS. For additional details on Siemens SIPROTEC relays, refer to SIPROTEC Numerical Protective Relays Catalog SIP 2008 E50001 K4400-A101-A5-7600, Web site at www.usa.siemens.com/energy or contact your local Siemens representative.

The difference

Smart-Gear PDS is equipped with more features and benefits than traditional switchgear. All applicable self-monitoring features, described in the smart features section beginning on page 6, are provided with the standard package. These self-monitoring features enhance the reliable performance of the equipment. With Smart-Gear PDS, less control wiring is required to implement simple or highly complex control schemes. Communication capability enables interface between protective relays for each circuit breaker, interface with other Smart-Gear PDS switchgear lineups, remote control capability and interface with many SCADA systems deployed with current communication protocols.

Simplification from design and specification, to commissioning and operation, is at the heart of Smart-Gear PDS, the intelligent choice in your selection of medium-voltage switchgear.

Smart features

Standard features

Circuit breaker operating cycles monitoring

This smart feature alerts the user when the drawout circuit breaker is approaching its pre-set threshold of operating cycles for scheduled maintenance. The threshold is pre-set at the factory to provide advance notification at 80 percent usage (20 percent of the remaining operations) of the recommended operations cycle.

Trip-circuit monitoring

In the event of a fault, the user needs confidence that the circuit breaker trip circuit will open the circuit breaker. This feature monitors the integrity of the trip circuit and provides the user notification of non-functionality of the trip circuit resulting from failed trip coil or blown trip-circuit fuse.

Close-circuit monitoring (type SG-64 only)

Monitoring the status of the close circuit is critical in cases where transferring and redirecting power is required, such as with a main-tie-main automatic transfer scheme. This feature monitors the integrity of the close circuit and provides the user notification of non-functionality of the close circuit resulting from a failed close coil or blown close-circuit fuse.

Vacuum interrupter wear monitoring

This smart feature monitors the remaining expected life of the vacuum interrupters by calculating the accumulated load, no-load and short-circuit interruption data. Based on the calculation, the user is given notification of vacuum interrupter contact wear. Means for visual verification of the vacuum interrupter during circuit breaker inspection is standard.

Circuit breaker racking position indication (type SG-64 only)

The position status of the circuit breaker is connected to binary inputs on the protective relay, and is thus available for local and remote monitoring and control logic. The circuit breaker positions include connected, disconnected and test.

Integrated controls

Two things visibly different about Smart-GearTM PDS compared to traditional switchgear are fewer control devices and significantly less control wiring. With Smart-Gear PDS, the circuit breaker control switch function (CS) and lockout protective relay function (86) are an integral part of the protective relay. Having these control functions in the protective relay enables the user to change control logic electronically without having to change the hard-wired circuitry.

Integrated power monitoring

Main, feeder and tie circuit breakers are equipped with integrated power metering (one percent accuracy) including current, voltage and power measurement functions. Current measurements include Ia, Ib, Ic, min/max and min/max current demand. Voltage measurements include phase voltages and min/max. Power measurements include peak demand kW, peak demand kVAr and peak demand kVA, min/max power factor, min/max frequency, set-points and pulse counter. Min/max data also includes date and time.

Programmable circuit breaker control interlocking

Continuous function chart (CFC) programming software makes digital circuit breaker interlocking available for a Smart-Gear PDS. This technology enables interlocking of multiple circuit breakers in the lineup, enabling user modification without complicated and timely wiring changes and retesting. All interunit connectivity between circuit breakers is through IEC 61850 communication protocol over redundant fiber-optic connections.

7

Smart features

Voltage transformer monitoring

Three-phase, wye-connected (required) voltage transformers are monitored for proper operation including blown fuse and voltage transformer failure. As with other event data, this information is retained in the protective relay ready for local and remote monitoring.

Current transformer monitoring

Current transformers are monitored for proper phase and current summation. Information is retained in the protective relay ready for local and remote monitoring.

Bus protection (device 50B)

Reverse-zone interlocking is used to distinguish a bus fault from a through-fault and uses IEC 61850 generic object oriented substation event (GOOSE) messaging.

Space heater operation monitoring

Space heater functionality is important for long-term operation and reliability of switchgear, particularly under conditions of high humidity or in outdoor applications. Many switchgear failures result from improper use of space heaters including instances in which the space heaters were not energized or were never wired to the power source. With Smart-Gear PDS, the operation of the space heaters is under constant monitoring to improve the long-term reliability of the power distribution system.

Large display (type SG-64 only)

A large display is provided with the Siemens SIPROTEC type 7SJ6415 protective relay solution and is provided for all main circuit breakers.

IEC 61850 enabled

Each protective relay is equipped with IEC 61850 communication protocol. More information on IEC 61850 is included in the communications and controls section beginning on page 27.

Programmable main-tie-main transfer scheme

CFC programming software makes digital implementation of automatic transfer schemes available for Smart-GearTM PDS. Like the programmable circuit breaker interlocking feature, this feature enables the user to modify the scheme without complicated and timely wiring changes and retesting. All interunit connectivity between circuit breakers is with redundant fiber-optic connections.

Fan cooling monitoring for a 4,000 A circuit breaker (type SG-64 only)

This feature monitors the cooling fan for a 4,000 A circuit breaker. The cooling fan air flow switch provides the input signal to the protective relay for local and remote monitoring.

Arc-flash detection

Arc-sensing protection is available with Smart-Gear PDS.

Application modules

System application modules

System application modules are used to define the operation and protection of the entire switchgear lineup. All automatic transfer and circuit breaker interlock application modules are implemented with CFC programmed protective relays, IEC 61850 communications over fiber-optic cable. Tables 2, 3 and 4 describe these system application modules in detail.

Automatic transfer application modules

With Smart-Gear PDS, four types of automatic transfer application modules are offered. These digital automatic transfer schemes are configurable for automatic or manual restore, open- or closed-transition and preferred or non-preferred sources. Refer to the definitions and terminology section on page 35 for detailed descriptions of these terms. The available automatic transfer application modules are described in Table 2 on page 10. All time delays and timing will be determined at the engineering stage.

Apps Name Application description

Circuit breaker-circuit breaker interlocking

BI1 Circuit breaker transfer-trip interlock

This interlock scheme is programmed to transfer the tripping event between two circuit breakers. Circuit breakers are digitally interlocked using CFC programming so a tripping event of either circuit breaker will trigger the tripping event of the other interlocked circuit breaker. Note: Interlocked circuit breakers will maintain the trip state (unless manually actuated) until normal conditions are restored. Options for this application include time delay and multiple circuit breaker interlocking.

BI2 Circuit breaker interlock

This interlock scheme is programmed to initiate the closing event between two circuit breakers. Circuit breakers are digitally interlocked using CFC programming so a closing event of either circuit breaker will initiate the closing event of the other interlocked circuit breaker. Note: Interlocked circuit breakers will maintain the same trip or closed states (unless manually actuated) under normal and abnormal conditions. Options for this application include time delay and multiple circuit breaker interlocking.

BI3 Circuit breaker trip-close interlock

This interlock scheme is programmed so the tripping event of a circuit breaker will initiate the closing event of the other interlocked circuit breaker. Circuit breakers are digitally interlocked via CFC programming so a tripping event of either circuit breaker triggers the closing event of the other interlocked circuit breaker. Note: Interlocked circuit breakers will maintain opposite states (unless manually actuated). Options for this application include time delay and multiple circuit breaker interlocking.

Protection functions and metering


With Smart-Gear PDS, protection and metering functions are pre-defined based on the specific application of the circuit breaker and, because of this, the process of configuring circuit breakers is easy.

All protective relays used for each circuit breaker application module are equipped with the IEC 61850 communication protocol.

Table 12 describes the protection and metering functions that are standard or optional for each circuit breaker application module.

Communications and controls

Because IEC 61850 is the global standard for substation automation communication protocol, it is the standard communication protocol used for Smart-GearTM PDS. IEC 61850 communicates over TCP/IP networks and/or substation LANs using high-speed switched Ethernet (baud rate is 100 Mbps). It can be mapped to the most well-established protocols, including GOOSE or peer-to-peer messaging and Web services.

Since IEC 61850 is an open protocol that supports communication for monitoring, control and protection functions, it offers significant advantages for interfacing among circuit breakers within a lineup as well as other devices throughout the power distribution system.

All Siemens type SIPROTEC protective relays used in Smart-Gear PDS are equipped for IEC 61850 communications. The automatic transfer and circuit breaker interlock schemes described in application modules beginning on page 9 are achieved through continuous function chart (CFC) programming, and initiated by the protective relays through IEC 61850 GOOSE messaging communication. This digital capability significantly reduces the number of control wires, especially interunit (wiring between sections) control wiring.

There are three communication and control application modules, including local control, remote-local control and remote control application. Each control and monitoring module is a building block for configuring an advanced communications network, in which the local control and monitoring are the foundation for all other control and monitoring modules.

27


Smart-GearTM PDS network: local control and monitoring

Local control and monitoring is accomplished among the Siemens type SIPROTEC protective relays within the Smart-Gear PDS switchgear lineup. The protective relays are pre-programmed using Siemens DIGSI 4 software to meet the specific application requirements, including automatic transfer schemes and circuit breaker interlock schemes as described in application modules on page 9. For Smart-Gear PDS, local operation and control (closing and opening) of the circuit breakers are accomplished through the protective relay circuit. All automatic transfer, circuit breaker interlocking and lockout functions are accomplished through protective relays within the local digital network.

The interface among circuit breakers is accomplished with CFC programming, IEC 61850, peer-to-peer/GOOSE messaging and fiber-optic connections. The input/output between a protective relay and a circuit breakers is hard-wired.

Main-tie-main automatic transfer schemes are accomplished with GOOSE messaging and CFC programming, which is a more reliable and flexible approach to system automation.
