Miscellaneous Logic Settings

There are five logic variables that are classified as miscellaneous logic expressions. These expressions

are: SG-TARG, SG-TRIGGER, SB-DUTY, SB-LOGIC, and SA-RESET. The equations associated with

these variables determine how the BE1-851 responds to conditions such as when to target what triggers

fault reporting, defining breaker status monitoring, and setup for remote alarm/target reset provisions.

These variables aren’t included in any of the BESTlogic preprogrammed schemes. However, the factory

default equations are compatible with each scheme.
The default miscellaneous expressions are common among the preprogrammed and custom schemes.

When a preprogrammed scheme is modified or a new scheme is created, the miscellaneous logic

expressions should be reviewed to ensure desired performance.
The default expressions for the miscellaneous logic settings are as follows:

SB-LOGIC=/IN1

SG-TRIGGER=BFT+VO11,BFPU+VO12,0

SP-79ZONE=0

SG-TARG=50TA/50TB/50TC/50TN/50TQ/62/162/BF/150TA/150TB/150TC/150TN/150TQ/51A/51B/51C/51N/51Q,0

SA-RESET=0

SB-DUTY=0,0.000e+00,0

Application Tips

Trip Circuit Continuity and Voltage Monitor

OUT1 has a built in trip circuit voltage and continuity monitor that drives logic variable OUT1MON. This

variable can be used to improve breaker failure logic or to automatically enhance security during testing.
If the relay detects a loss of voltage or continuity in the breaker trip circuit, it is possible to speed up fault

clearing time by bypassing the breaker failure timer. Since relay failure and breaker failure are covered by

different backup actions, it is desirable to reduce common mode failure mechanisms. It is recommended

that separate control power fuses or breakers supply the feeder breaker and feeder protection circuits.

The equation for the Breaker Failure Trip logic (VO5) can be modified by ORing the Breaker Failure

Initiate with the expression VO10*OUT1MON. VO10 is designated in each of the preprogrammed logic

schemes as the Breaker Failure Initiate expression. Example 1 illustrates how the BFT logic expression is

modified. It is important that the breaker failure timer bypass logic also be disabled in test mode. Example

2 shows the expression for blocking the upstream instantaneous element. Figure 8-16 illustrates using the

trip circuit continuity monitor in breaker failure logic.
Example 1. Breaker failure trip expression: SL-VO5=BFT+VO10*OUT1MON*IN4*/343
Example 2. Block upstream instantaneous expression: SL-VO4=VO12*/VO5*/OUT1MON*IN4*/343
If the internal breaker failure function block is not being used, the trip circuit continuity and voltage monitor

alarm can be used to detect when the test paddle or test switches have been opened. This will

automatically place the relay in the test mode. Each of the preprogrammed logic schemes has logic to
