Introduction
General information
The commissioning and testing guide provides
information about commissioning and test
activities on the ANSI MV metal-clad digital
switchgear solutions by providing details about
their main components and proven testing
methods. This guide is intended to be a
supplement to the Installation, Operation and
Maintenance Manual (IOMM) for the specific
product lines: Advance MV SG, Advance 27 MV SG,
SafeGear MV SG, SafeGear HD MV SG and
ReliaGear ND MV SG.
This guide does not cover the testing and
commissioning of the SwitchgearMD switchgear
monitoring solution. SwitchgearMD is used to
monitor bus temperature, humidity and partial
discharge activity within the switchgear.
This guide also provides basic guidance on
setting up ABB relays and Moxa ethernet switches
and equivalent switches, as well as testing
current and voltage sensors. It is not intended to
replace or supersede the detailed instructions
provided for those, or any other components
used within the switchgear. Users should consult
with the specific User’s Manuals and/or
Installation Manuals for the respective
components used in their switchgear project for
all details regarding testing and commissioning.
Photos of relay screens used in this guide may
differ from actual relays used. These variations
should not be significant enough to invalidate the
intent of the illustrations.
Testing and measurement devices shown in this
guide are not the only devices that can be used.
Performance criteria of the testing and
measuring devices are included so users can
choose alternative devices if desired.
Intended users
This guide is intended to be used by protection
relay, test and service engineers. The protection
relay engineer needs to have a thorough
knowledge of protection systems, protection
equipment, protection functions, configured
functional logic in the protection relays and IEC
61850 engineering. The test and service
engineers are expected to be familiar with the
use of electronic equipment and testing medium
voltage switchgear.

ANSI medium voltage metal-clad
digital switchgear
ANSI medium voltage (MV) metal-clad digital
switchgear is a new solution implemented in a
traditional ANSI MV metal-clad switchgear. It is
accomplished by using proven components such
as current and voltage sensors and Relion®
protection relays and mature technologies such
as IEC 61850 digital communication.
Commissioning is very similar to commissioning
activities performed on traditional switchgear.
Differences in procedures are a result of the
implementation of Process bus and GOOSE
functionalities and usage of sensors.
The traditional method of commissioning activity
starts with primary injections, then continues
with protection relays testing, apparatus
functionality verification, etc., and ends with
testing of the communication if applicable. With
digital switchgear, commissioning must start
with verification of IEC 61850 digital
communication, particularly with the Ethernet
network check. After commissioning of the
Ethernet network, there is no restriction
regarding the order of other commissioning
activities.

Ethernet network verification
The Ethernet network interconnects protection
relays in a substation. As the GOOSE and Process
bus are used, having a functional network is
essential for most of the tests. The network may
or may not be set up and tested in the factory,
depending upon purchase contract agreements.
Therefore, after switchgear is assembled onsite,
it may be necessary to set up the network and
then verify its functionality. Before starting any
testing of the communication, properly set the
Ethernet settings in the protection relays, set the
Ethernet switches and, only then, interconnect
the Ethernet network according to the project
documentation. It is assumed that the protection
and control circuits are powered from either the
power supply identified in the project schematic
diagrams, or an alternate power supply if the
switchgear is not energized.
Protection relays
Before starting any secondary testing of the
protection relay functions, verify if the IP
addresses, the network topology and time
synchronization settings are in accordance with
the project documentation.
• IP address setting: Check communication
board setting according to documentation (for
example, the Network Overview diagram).
On the protection relay LHMI go to -> Main Menu/
Configuration/Communication/Ethernet/Rear

• IP address = for example, 172.16.2.1
• Subnet mask = for example, 255.255.0.0

Managed Ethernet switches
To create a reliable Ethernet network for IEC
61850 communication, a managed Ethernet
switch (e.g., from Moxa) is recommended to be
used. The most important settings of Moxa EDS
family Ethernet switches to be observed are
highlighted in this section.
This section provides the basic information on
how to make the initial setup of a typical Moxa
switch. User must refer to the correct User’s
Manual and/or Instruction Manual for the Moxa
switch for details of how to completely setup
and/or program the Moxa ethernet switches. The
instructions within the Moxa User’s Manual and/
or Installation Manuals take precedence over all
instructions within this guide.
Moxa EDS switches
If the IP address is unknown, disconnect all
Ethernet cables from the switch or turn other
connected Ethernet switches off. After
connecting a computer with the Moxa MXConfig
tool installed to any port on the Ethernet switch,
the following dialog screen appears (Figure 8).
This tool automatically searches the network for
those devices, which support the tool.
Click on the globe icon to open broadcast search
(Figure 8).

It is recommended to set a transparent time with
Power profile. The Ethernet switch then only
corrects and forwards the PTP messages and
cannot become the PTP master.
This concludes the Time Settings activities.
Switching Settings (VLAN)
The traffic segregation is especially essential for
the process bus to reduce data traffic and to let it
go only where needed (for example GOOSE, SMV
shared between protection relays should not be
sent to the control system, SMV should only be
sent where required).
—

Traffic filtering in managed Ethernet switches
can be done via logical separation of the data
traffic to several VLANs or via multicast MAC
address filtering for ports.
Select “VLAN Settings” from the menu to open
the VLAN settings dialog box. (Figure 17) Follow
the diagrams as shown in Figures 18 and 19.
The PTP profile must be enabled on all ports. The
Peer to peer delay interval is definite for power
profile 1s.
Set the time values under the PTP settings as
shown in Figure 16.

There is no special setting in the Ethernet switch
for PRP networks.
This concludes the basic setup of the Moxa
ethernet switch. Consult the User’s Manual and/

18 ANSI MEDIUM VOLTAGE METAL-CLAD DIGITAL SWITCHGEAR
All current and voltage sensors can remain
connected to the bus during power frequency
(bus hipot) and secondary wire dielectric testing.
Primary testing is valuable for verification of the
whole measurement chain in the application
including switching equipment (circuit breaker or
contactor). The measuring chain includes the
sensor, cable connections and settings of the
protection relay.
Digital solution vs. traditional switchgear
The following applies in the case of digital
switchgear:
• No complex checks of inter-panel wiring are
required
• Ethernet network fault detection is available
• Higher protection relay engineering skills are
required in case of modifications
• Relay configuration modifications can be
performed using the free downloadable
PCM600 software
• For pre-testing, secondary tester with sensor
support (low voltage output signals) is required
• The setting of sensors in the protection relay is
described in the Digital Switchgear Engineering
guide 1VAL108402-TG Rev A
Recommended primary testing device
For primary current and voltage injection you can
use the same devices as with conventional
switchgear. There are multifunctional primary
test systems, such as the Omicron CPC 100
(Figure 27), available on the market which enables
entering sensor correction factors and the
display of the corrected value for both current
and voltage sensors.
Introduction of CPC 100 – key features:
• Supply up to 800 A or 2000 V with max. 5 kVA
power output, over a frequency range of 15 Hz –
400 Hz or 400 A DC
• Supply up to 2000 A or 12 kV using external
current or voltage amplifiers
Current sensors
Primary testing verifies the whole measurement
chain including the sensor, cable connections and
settings of the protection relay. Each current
sensor has unique physical polarity. Therefore, no
polarity (physical test) is needed. The current
sensor polarity can be changed via the relay
parameter setting. Secondary winding resistance
and magnetization curve tests are not applicable
either.
All current sensors are tested individually during
routine production tests for output accuracy and
determination of the ratio correction factors.
Production test reports are available for all
sensors and are provided when requested. It is
not required to test the sensors separately from
the entire chain.
If it is desired to test only the sensors, separate
from the entire circuit, then follow only the steps
shown below that are necessary to establish a
primary current injection circuit and then connect
a measurement device to the RJ45 connectors of
the sensor outputs. Please note that the
measurement and power supply devices are
suggested devices. Performance characteristics
are stated in case the user wants to use alternate
power supply and measuring devices.
The measurement device should have a
measurement range of 5 mV to 20 V, with an
accuracy of +/-0.1% or better.

COMMISSIONING AND TESTING GUIDE 19
All current sensors are factory tested for accuracy
in the continues primary current operating range,
i.e., from 5% of rated primary current (4 A) up to
the continues thermal current Icth (4000 A).
These routine tests are made as per the
requirements of the sensor standards IEC
60044-8 or IEC 61869-10.
The test value is 80 A which represents a rated
primary current. Other primary current input
values can be used. However, since sensors are
linear in performance then it is not necessary to
test all primary inputs. If the 80 A primary test
results are within range, then the outputs for the
other primary inputs will be in range.
The chart below shows what the output voltage
should be based on the primary current used.
The acceptable output range is +/- 5.0 % of the
target value shown on the chart.
Multiply the ratio correction factor (ref. Step 1/5
below). This calculated value based on the
correction factors should be within +/- 0.5% of
the secondary output values shown in the table.

2. Output voltage without the use of correction factors to be +/- 5.0%

primary, output voltage can be 171 mV to 189 mV). After multiplying
the correction factors to the actual output voltages, the output
voltages should be +/- 0.5% of the values shown in the table. (e.g.,
for 80 A primary, output voltage can be 179.1 to 180.9 mV).
Consideration shall also be given to the accuracy range of the
primary current injection equipment.
3. All values are based on 60Hz.
The test setup to measure the secondary output
of the sensors is shown in Figure 29. ESSAILEC
test socket pt#TC-E-RJ45-INF and RJ45 plug,
pt#FI-RJ45-DIA4 are used to in the illustration
below. These are specifically designed to be used
with ABB digital switchgear with sensors
compliant to the IEC standards.
There may be other similar devices available that
could be used. Measuring device can be any
device capable of measuring the recommended
ranges and comply with the proper IEC standard
input parameters for accurate measuring.
RJ45 connectors have specific pin wiring based
on the requirements of the IEC standards for the
sensors. Test personnel must ensure that any
adapters or connections using RJ45 connectors
meet these requirements.
Extensions of the CAT6 cable can be made up to
about 1 meter in length and must follow the same
pin wiring as the sensor cable.

In the protection relay, current metering is
supervised by the CMMXU function. Metering
accuracy is stated in Table 2.
