Commissioning

EOR-3DS short description
The EOR-3DS combines earth fault and short circuit location in a compact device. The advantages of various locating methods can be used and prioritized. The device has been developed for locating on one feeder. Through a multitude of SCADA protocols, SPS functionality, the use of monostable relays and IT-security features the EOR-3DS is especially designed for the use in intelligent secondary substations.

Scope of delivery
The EOR-3DS’s scope of delivery includes a display unit for indication and localization of short circuits and earth faults. Depending on the order characteristics ‚C‘ and ‚U‘ the device is delivered with different measurement cards and / or additional current and voltage adapters. In addition, depending on the order characteristic ‚U‘, the device has a RJ45 port.

• EOR-3DS possibly including C21/C25 and / or U10 Adapter
• Installation instructions
• Additionally ordered adapter cables and service adapters
• Additionally ordered case adapters for DIN rail mounting

Mounting
The EOR-3DS is designed for mounting in a compact switch gear. It is mounted in a control panel cut out or with an additional available housing adapter on a DIN rail.
The cut out needs the following dimensions: 92+0,8 x 45+0,6 mm.
The EOR-3DS has metal brackets on the top and bottom, as well as plastic brackets on the side. When correctly mounted these brackets lock in place in the cutout. The plastic brackets have to be removed to dismount the device.

To mount the DIN rail adapter the four screws on the back of the EOR-3DS have to be removed. Afterwards the rail adapter can be mounted using the provided, longer screws. There are two additional provided braces that can be used to sup-port the device additionally.

Connect the braces to the outside of the adapter. Put the slot nut into the slot. Afterwards the screw can be mounted and the device can be aligned horizontally.
Attach the optional C21 and C25 current adapters onto the device. The optional U10 voltage adapter is designed for DIN rail mounting.

NOTICE! Property damage by failure to comply to the mounting instructions
The device can be damaged by disregarding the mounting instructions or through incorrect mounting!

Ground connection
The device contains a functional ground that is also used as a reference potential for voltage measurement with order characteristic C31/U31.

The functional ground is labeled on the measurement device.
Connect the ground cable with the connector on the EOR-3DS. Use a PE flat connector (6.3 mm). Notice the additional instructions in chapter 5.23.

DANGER! Risk of death through electric shock!
The incorrect connection of this measuring device can lead to death, serious injuries or risk of fire.

• The functional ground must always be connected to the PE potential
• Under no conditions the functional ground can carry dangerous voltage

Supply voltage
The connection of EOR-3DS power supply is identical for all devices as there is only one power supply version (feature H23) available. The EOR-3DS has a wide range power supply that can be used in the range between DC 20…148 V. The power supply is protected against polarity reversal, i. e. a connection with reverse polarity on terminals X2-1 and X2-3 in the range of the permitted operating volt-age does not damage the device. The terminal X2 is located on the back of the device in the upper right corner, as shown in the following image. A detailed connection description (e. g. wire cross section) can be found in chapter 5.23.

DANGER!
Risk of death through electric shock!
Serious injuries or death can occur by:

• Touching blank or not insulated live wires
• Touching hazardous connectors on the device
• Assemble / disassemble Ethe device only in voltage free state
• Make sure all wires are connected and strain-relieved.
• The cable requirements of all connector blocks have to be met.

After connection and switch on of the supply voltage the power LED will show a green light and the device will start. As soon as the device is operable, the status LED will light up green. The LED layout can be found in chapter 4.1. The terminal assignment can be found in chapter 5.23.

NOTICE!
Property damage due to disregarding the terminal assignment or improper voltages!
By disregarding the terminal assignment or exceeding the permitted voltage range the device can be damaged or destroyed. Make sure to follow these instructions bevor connecting the device to the supply voltage:

• Voltage and frequencies have to correspond to the identification plate! Obey limits according to the technical specifications in chapter 5.
• Do not take the supply voltage from the voltage transducer.

Variants in connecting the measurement inputs
NOTICE! Personal or property damage due to disregarding the safety instructions
Please read this manual carefully before connecting the terminals and obey the given safety instructions.

The EOR-3DS can be connected to low power sensors and classic (inductive) trans-ducers. The suitable analog input is selected during order process (order characteristics ‘C’ and ‘U’). For technical data of the different analog inputs please refer to the latest EOR-3DS data sheet or chapter 5.
The EOR-3DS has a maximum of four voltage inputs and four current inputs. Hereby three phase voltages and three phase currents as well as the zero sequence voltage (Uen) and the zero sequence current (3I0) can be measured.
The following chapter explains the connection of the measuring transformer and low power sensors depending on the chosen features.
Notice the technical specifications when connecting the different ‚C‘ and ‚U‘ features (chapter 5).

Connecting low power sensors LR/LRM systems
DANGER! Risk of death through electric shock Attention dangerous contact voltage!

• Ensure that the PE connector (ground) on the EOR-3DS is connected.
• Check for zero potential before executing this task!
• Make sure all wires are connected and strain-relieved.
•  The cable requirements of all connector blocks have to be met. (see chapter 5.23)

U05 connection for capacitive LR and LRM systems (incl. adapter cable)
With the EOR-3DS it is possible to measure voltage parallel to a capacitive voltage detecting system.

Terminal assignment for U05 characteristic

U06/U07 connection for low power voltage sensors (burden 200 kΩ or 2 MΩ)

Terminal assignment for characteristics U06/U07

Normally Uen is not measured using low power sensors. This means the parameter ‘calculate Uen‘ must be activated in the EOR-3DS.

C10 connection for low power current sensors
The EOR-3DS offers the possibility to connect low power current sensors from multiple manufacturers.

Terminal assignment for characteristic C10

C29/U29 connection for ABB low power sensors
The EOR-3DS offers the possibility to connect ABB low power current and voltage sensors via RJ45. This way a combined sensor or separate sensors for current and voltage with y-adapter can be connected.

NOTICE! Property damage due to disregarding the mounting instructions!
The RJ45 connector cables must be preformed and strain-relieved in order to connect them mechanically tension free to the device. Otherwise, there is a risk of damaging the RJ45 ports on the EOR-3DS.

Terminal assignment for characteristic C29/U29

U31/C31 connection for Siemens low power sensors
The EOR-3DS offers the possibility to connect Siemens low-power combi sensors (SIBushing) to measure voltage and current via RJ45.

NOTICE! Property damage due to disregarding the mounting instructions!
The RJ45 connector cables must be pre formed and strain relieved in order to connect them mechanically tension free to the device. Otherwise, there is a risk of damaging the RJ45 ports on the EOR-3DS.

Definition P1/P2 on measuring card C31/U31 (Siemens SIBushing): In the Siemens SIBushing P1 is in feeder direction and P2 in busbar di-rection. The EOR-3DS considers this fact automatically with measurement card C31/U31. An inversion of the current direction by adjusting the respective parameters is not necessary.

Connecting of transducers
DANGER! Risk of death through electric shock!
Attention dangerous contact voltage!
Voltage spark over and high short circuit currents in CAT II and CAT III possible!

• Ensure that the PE connector (ground) on the EOR-3DS is connected.
• Check for zero potential before executing this taks!
• Short circuit the current transducer before executing this task.
• Make sure all wires are connected and strain relieved.
• The cable requirements of all connector blocks have to be met. (see chapter 5.23)

Adapter modules C21, C25 (only 3Io measurement) and U10

Connection zero sequence voltage Uen and zero sequence current 3Io
The connection of zero sequence voltage (referred as Uen or Uo) takes place via the so-called open delta winding. A core-balanced current transformer is used to measure 3I0.

Connection of phase to earth voltages UL1, UL2, UL3 and phase currents IL1, IL2, IL3
In the following example, only the phase voltages and the phase currents are con-nected to the EOR-3DS. Uen and 3I0 are not used.

Connection to the busbar side neutral point of the current transducer
The voltage measurement is identical to chapter 3.6.2.3. However, the current measurement is wired in a way that a connection from one transducer is combined with the other two current transducers. The sum of the three phase currents (i. e. 3I0) can consequently be measured at this ‘node’.

Separate connection of phase voltages and currents, zero sequence voltage and sum current
Beside the measurements for phase voltages and phase currents, measurements also exist for the zero sequence voltage (Uen) and zero sequence current (3I0).
