2.6 Frequency Protection
GRT100 provides underfrequency or overfrequency protection and/or alarms for load shedding or
for detecting such an overfrequency condition caused by disconnecting load from a particular
generation location.
The frequency element FRQ comprises two frequency elements 81-1 and 81-2, the former is used
for tripping and the latter for alarms.
Figure 2.6.1 shows the scheme logic of the frequency protection. The tripping element 81-1
outputs underfrequency and overfrequency trip signals L1 and H1. Either underfrequency or
overfrequency protection is selected by setting the scheme switch [FRQ-UF1] to “ON” or “OFF”.
The alarm element 81-2 outputs underfrequency and overfrequency alarm signals L2 and H2.
Either underfrequency or overfrequency alarms are selected by setting the scheme switch
[FRQ-UF2] to “ON” or “OFF”.
Frequency protection can perform time-delayed tripping of up to five breakers. Any of the breaker
tripping signals FRQ-1 to FRQ-5 can be blocked by the scheme switch [FRQ1] to [FRQ5]
settings.
Note: Models 203 and 204 are not provided with FRQ-4 and FRQ-5.
Alarm signal FRQ-A can be blocked by the scheme switch [FRQA] setting.
Frequency protection is blocked under the condition that the system voltage is lower than the
setting of the undervoltage element UV.
