MV Generator protection with ABB IED

Abstract

The diploma thesis deals with the protection of a medium voltage generator using an ABB protection terminal. It describes the theoretical foundations of generator protection functions, focusing in detail on selected functions, namely differential, earth-fault and loss of excitation protection of a generator. The practical part describes how to test the ABB REG630 protection terminal and will be used as a basis for future training. All three types of protection functions were analyzed in the theoretical part, further programmed and set using PCM600 software and finally tested using a training panel and Omicron tester. The evaluation of the results is clearly displayed using tables and graphs.
