EA-PSM has an enhanced distance protection modelling and coordination module. The user can add and coordinate various distance protection relays from manufacturers such as “Siemens”, “Alstom”, “Schneider”, “ABB” or create costume distance protection relay models. In order to add distance relay in the breaker unit properties, the user should select “Distance protection” tab and check the “Use distance protection” checkbox. Distance protection configuration will apply instantly and does not require confirmation via “OK” or “Apply”.
Note that the distance protection can’t be added at the connection point of elements such as generators, loads, motors and similar.
In the “Configuration” toolbar the user can enable or disable distance protection for selected breaker with “Use distance protection” checkbox, also by pressing “Export” button the user can export distance protection settings and short circuit results into text report.
