Introduction
This document describes the Nu-Lec IEC 60870-5-101 and IEC 60870-5-104 implementations Ior
Automatic Circuit Reclosers (ACRs) on Advanced Controllers.
This implementation is more complex than most telemetry protocols, it is essential to read the
Overview section in order to set up the SCADA system correctly.
1. Overview
The Nu-Lec ADVC controller combines the Iunctions oI protection relay and switchgear controller
into a single intelligent electronic device (IED).
The controller provides a user Iriendly operator interIace on a Iour line LCD control panel that
allows conIiguration and control oI the switchgear.
In addition the controller generates time tagged 'events which are displayed on the operator
control panel. These events show the history oI the switchgear operation Ior the beneIit oI the
operator and Ior post Iault analysis.
Examples would be:
Operator Actions such as trip or close
Protection Pick up
Protection Trips
Fault Current Levels
Auto-reclose actions
These events are optimised to give the operator the most useIul inIormation.
Electricity supply utilities Irequently link the controller into their SCADA systems as a Remote
Terminal Unit (RTU).
To make this simple the controller provides:
Mounting room Ior a radio or modem in the control cubicle.
Power supply Ior the radio or modem in the control cubicle.
Embedded protocol handler Ior the required SCADA protocol in the controller Iirmware.
The IEC870 protocol allows digital and measured data to be sent Irom the controller to the SCADA
system with time tags attached. This Iacility has enabled Nu-Lec to provide a sophisticated SCADA
system interIace that not only provides the SCADA system with status inIormation but also allows
the SCADA system to re-create the Event Log display on the operator control panel.
1.1. Status Points
This implementation provides a set oI status inIormation about the switchgear that can be used by a
SCADA system to generate displays and events Ior operational purposes. This might be described
as the 'traditional set oI SCADA system data and are called the 'Status Points, reIer to Appendix
C, Appendix D, and Appendix G Ior status points.

For example:
Open or Close Status
Lockout Status
Fault Flags
Line Currents and Voltages
Time tags are optional. II enabled, these status points are returned with time tags oI either 10 or 500
millisecond resolution.
1.2. ControIs
A list oI the controls supported by the protocol handler is detailed in Appendix E and Appendix F.
All controls have a corresponding binary status point. The master station must use these status
points to veriIy that the control action has been successIul. Sometimes a control will be rejected
because oI an underlying ADVC condition preventing the action. These conditions are detailed in
the table in the appendices.
The IEC870 protocol handler can trigger two events to be recorded in the ADVC event log -
'IEC870 Trip Req and 'IEC870 Close Req. This event log reporting indicates only that the
protocol handler has requested a trip or a close Irom the ADVC. It does not necessarily mean that
the action has been taken. As detailed above, the request may be over-ridden by operational
conditions.
The IEC870 protocol deIaults to being a remote user. ReIer to the equipment manual Ior more
inIormation.
1.3. Point Configuration
Several means are provided to conIigure the data points required. These include:
Ability to change the points monitored and reported by the controller. This allows the
controller be conIigured to suit the communications and SCADA system constraints.
Flexible data object addressing.
ASDU object type selection Ior binary and measured input data.
1.4. TerminoIogy
The terminology used in this document is that Earth Fault or Ground Fault is described as Earth /
Ground Fault and Sensitive Earth Fault (SEF) or Sensitive Ground Fault (SGF) is described as
SEF/SGF.
Also, bushing terminology used in this document is Ior U and W series switchgear ie I and X Ior the
switchgear terminals. On N or RL series switchgear the 1 side is described as I and the 2 side is
described as X.
Also note that the phase terminology is ABC and reIers always to the phase set by the Terminal
Designation or 'Phasing option, never to the physical bushing or terminal on the switchgear.
1.5. Password Protection
All IEC870 panel Iields require password entry unless described as Display only` or otherwise
stated.
For more inIormation on operator control panel usage reIer to the equipment manual.
2. AppIicabiIity

1.11.1. CIock Synchronisation
II an hour change or a date change has occurred since last reported then the ADVC stores a
spontaneous clock synchronisation event message in its event buIIer. The clock change event is
transmitted to the master station in order Ior it to be able to distinguish between events oI the
previous hour and those oI the current hour. The clock synchronisation event will be stored
irrespective oI the time Iormat - 24 bits (MM:SS.ms) or 56 bits (MM/DD/YY HH:MM:SS.ms).
Time stamp data is invalid iI one oI the Iollowing conditions is true:
The ADVC has perIormed cold start and has not received a clock synchronisation command.
The ADVC has not received any communications Irom the master station Ior 24 hours
The ADVC has not received any clock synchronisation commands Irom the master station Ior
72 hours

Note:
1. For Class CY (ReI Appendix G), conIiguring Cyclic Dly to 0 disables reporting oI Cyclic
data(Class 2). Setting Cyclic Dly greater than 0 enables reporting oI Cyclic data (Class 2).
2. Reporting oI individual data points can be enabled/disabled via WSOS conIiguration. A
disabled data point will still retain its object address but will not be reported during any oI
the above polling.
3. A ADVC response to a Read command will contain the data Ior the single ASDU point
reIerenced in the command. The ADVC does not support multiple data responses.
4. Inclusion oI the integrated total object in the protocol handler`s database is optional via the
panel/WSOS
5. II the ADVC received a class 2 poll and it has no class 2 data available but has class 1 data
available then it will respond with a class 1 response.
6. For Class CY (ReI Appendix G), disabling cyclic data reporting will result in cyclic` data
being reported in General Interrogation and Class1 command responses. Enabling cyclic
data reporting will result in no cyclic` data being reported in General Interrogation.
7. For Class CY (ReI Appendix G), enabling cyclic data reporting with the Measured Time
tag ON will result in cyclic` data being reported in Class1 and Class 2 command responses.
Enabling cyclic data reporting with the Measured Time tag OFF will result in no cyclic`
data being reported in Class1 command responses.
1.11.4. Event Data Buffering
The ADVC maintains separate buIIers Ior change oI state event reporting Ior each oI its data types.
Single-point inIormation (ASDU 1, 2 or 30) 250 events
Double-point inIormation (ASDU 3, 4 or 31) 50 events
All single and double inIormation change oI state events are stored in their respective buIIers.
Measured values (ASDU 9, 10, 11, 12, 34, or 35) 200 events
II the ADVC is conIigured to have Measured Time tags ON then an event is stored in the
change oI state buIIer every time the value exceeds its dead band. All changes oI state values
are reported, with their time tags, in response to a master station poll.
For Class CY (ReI Appendix G), disabling cyclic data reporting with the Measured Time tags
OFF then no measured value is stored in the change oI state buIIer.
For Class CY (ReI Appendix G), enabling cyclic data reporting with the Measured Time tags
OFF then a single non-time tagged event per measured value is stored in the change oI state
buIIer. Only the one event is stored irrespective oI the number oI times the value exceeds its
dead band. The value Ior the event that is reported to the master station is the current value at
the time oI transmission. Note that iI a measured value is rapidly changing during a multi-
message exchange poll then a second report oI the spontaneous value change is possible.
Clock Change (ASDU 103) 24 events
The usage oI clock change events is explained in section 1.11.1.
Integrated totals (ASDU 15, 16 or 37) 50 events

1.11.5. Measured VaIues
The ADVC measured values are listed in Appendix G. These can be transmitted to the master
station as either Scaled or Normalised values.

SCALED VALUES
All measured values are transmitted as a signed 16 bit value. The value transmitted is calculated by:

Transmitted Scaled Value Raw value units

Examples:
Raw Value Range Units Transmitted Scaled Value
0 to 16000A 2A 0 to 8000
0.0 to 100.0 0.1 0 to 1000
0 to 131068 kVA 4kVA 0 to 32767

NORMALISED VALUES
All measured values are transmitted as a signed 16-bit value. The value transmitted is calculated as
shown below:
Examples:
Raw Value Range Units Transmitted Normalised Value Range
0 to 16000A 1A 0H (0) to 7FFFH (32767)
0 to 30000V 4V 0H (0) to 1FFFH (8191)
0.0 to 100.0 0.1 0H (0) to 7FFFH (32767)

Appendix A ProtocoI Timings

Initialisation Time
The protocol handler will not respond to master station requests Ior several seconds aIter power up
whilst it waits Ior the ADVC database to be initialised and Ior high priority boot up tasks to be
completed.

Turnaround Time
The turnaround time Ior the protocol, Irom the end oI receiving a message until the start oI the pre-
transmission time, is typically 30 milliseconds with a range oI 5 to 100 milliseconds.

Latency of Data
The protocol task examines the real-time database every 500 milliseconds to see iI anything has
changed and to construct the underlying protocol database which is sent to the master station. This
introduces a delay between the actual event and updating the protocol database oI up to 500
milliseconds. This is the data latency.

Accuracy of Time Tags
For points tagged to 500 milliseconds accuracy, the time tag accuracy is 10 / 500 ms relative to
ADVC processor clock.
For points tagged to 10 millisecond accuracy, the points correspond to those in the operator panel
event record.

reached or not.
A set oI Ilags is available Ior each trip in a protection sequence.
In addition analogue data is available which shows the Iault currents which occurred during the sequence
and the number oI trips which took place (reIer Appendix G)
Note that a sequence starts when there is a protection trip or a sequence advance.
Most oI these Ilags are cleared either by protocol command or when the switchgear is tripped/closed by the
operator or when a new protection sequence starts.
This data is volatile i.e. it is zeroed on controller soItware reset.

Appendix E Single Command Points

These are the single-inIormation binary command points supported by the controller.
Changing some oI these settings aIIect the currently active protection group. The change is put into
eIIect immediately and is permanent Ior that group. In other words is equivalent to selecting that
protection group on the operator control panel, changing the setting and then putting the change
into service.
II W series is indicated as Y` below then point is supported otherwise no action is taken.


ADSU Type 45 Single command

II a control request Irom the master station is rejected by the ADVC because oI an underlying
condition preventing the action (reIer to table below) then the ADVC will respond with a negative
active conIirmation message.

Protection Sequence Data
These analogue points record data about the protection sequence including maximum Iault
currents. These are derived Irom the max current events that are seen in the Operator Control
Panel event record and record the current Ior each phase and Ior earth/ground.
For any one protection trip or sequence advance more than one Iault current can be set. For
example a Phase/Phase Iault might set an A-Phase current and a B-Phase current.
Other data recorded includes the number oI trips in the protection sequence and the Protection
Group that was active at the time oI the protection operation.
Data is cleared to zero by the Iollowing actions:-
'Reset Fault Current remote control command deIined below
