T60 Transformer Protection System
Chapter 2: Product description
Product descript ion
This chapter outlines the product, order codes, and specifications.
2.1 Product description
The T60 Transformer Protection System is part of the Universal Relay (UR) series of products. It is a microprocessor-based
relay for protection of small, medium, and large three-phase power transformers. The relay can be configured for a
maximum of six three-phase current inputs and six ground current inputs, and can satisfy applications with transformer
windings connected between two breakers, such as in a ring bus or in breaker-and-a-half configurations. The T60
performs magnitude and phase shift compensation internally, eliminating requirements for external CT connections and
auxiliary CTs.
The percent differential element is the main protection device in the T60. Instantaneous differential protection, volts-per-
hertz, restricted ground fault, and many current, voltage, and frequency-based protection elements are also incorporated.
The T60 includes 16 programmable universal comparators, or FlexElements™, that provide additional flexibility by allowing
the user to customize their own protection functions that respond to any signals measured or calculated by the relay.
The metering functions of the T60 include true root mean square (RMS) and phasors for currents and voltages, current
harmonics and total harmonic distortion (THD), symmetrical components, frequency, power, power factor, and energy.
Diagnostic features include an event recorder capable of storing 1024 time-tagged events, oscillography capable of
storing up to 64 records with programmable trigger, content, and sampling rate, as well as data logger acquisition of up to
16 channels, with programmable content and sampling rate. The internal clock used for time-tagging can be synchronized
with an IRIG-B signal, using the Simple Network Time Protocol (SNTP) over the Ethernet port, or using the Precision Time
Protocol (PTP). This precise time stamping allows the sequence of events to be determined throughout the system. Events
can also be programmed (via FlexLogic™ equations) to trigger oscillography data capture that can be set to record the
measured parameters before and after the event for viewing on a computer. These tools significantly reduce
troubleshooting time and simplify report generation in the event of a system fault.
Several options are available for communication. An RS232 port (USB port with the graphical front panel) can be used to
connect to a computer to program settings and monitor actual values. The rear RS485 port allows independent access by
operating and engineering staff. It can be connected to system computers with baud rates up to 115.2 kbps. All serial ports
use the Modbus RTU protocol. The IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is supported on the RS485 interface. IEC 60870-5-103, DNP,
and Modbus cannot be enabled simultaneously on this interface. Also only one of the DNP, IEC 60870-5-103, and IEC
60870-5-104 protocols can be enabled at any time on the relay. When the IEC 60870-5-103 protocol is chosen, the RS485
port has a fixed even parity and the baud rate can be either 9.6 kbps or 19.2 kbps. The 100Base-FX or 100Base-TX Ethernet
interface provides fast, reliable communications in noisy environments. The Ethernet port supports IEC 61850, IEC 61850-
90-5, Modbus/TCP, TFTP, and PTP (according to IEEE Std. 1588-2008 or IEC 61588), and it allows access to the relay via any
standard web browser (T60 web pages). The IEC 60870-5-104 protocol is supported on the Ethernet port. The Ethernet port

also supports the Parallel Redundancy Protocol (PRP) of IEC 62439-3 (clause 4, 2012) when purchased as an option.
Secure Routable GOOSE (R-GOOSE) is supported with software options.
Settings and actual values can be accessed from the front panel or EnerVista software.
The T60 uses flash memory technology that allows field upgrading as new features are added. Firmware and software are
upgradable.

2.2 Security
The following security features are available:
• Password security — Basic security present by default
• EnerVista security — Role-based access to various EnerVista software screens and configuration elements. The
feature is present by default in the EnerVista software.
• CyberSentry security — Advanced security available using a software option. When purchased, the option is
automatically enabled, and the default Password security and EnerVista security are disabled.
2.2.0.1 EnerVista security
The EnerVista security management system is a role-based access control (RBAC) system that allows an administrator to
manage the privileges of multiple users. This allows for access control of UR devices by multiple personnel within a
substation and conforms to the principles of RBAC as defined in ANSI INCITS 359-2004. The EnerVista security
management system is disabled by default to allow the administrator direct access to the EnerVista software after
installation. It is recommended that security be enabled before placing the device in service.
Basic password or enhanced CyberSentry security applies, depending on purchase.
2.2.0.2 Password security
Password security is a basic security feature present by default.
Two levels of password security are provided: command and setting. Use of a password for each level controls whether all
users can enter commands and/or change settings.
Two types of connection security are provided: password entry from local or remote connection. Local access is defined as
any access to settings or commands via the front panel interface. This includes both keypad entry and the through a front
panel port. Remote access is defined as any access to settings or commands via any rear communications port. This
includes both Ethernet and RS485 connections. These two settings are on by default and apply to all users.

When entering a settings or command password via EnerVista or any serial interface, the user must enter the
corresponding connection password. If the connection is to the back of the T60, the remote password is used. If the
connection is to a front panel port, the local password applies. (These two local and remote password settings are not
shown the figure.)
Password access events are logged in the Event Recorder.
Figure 2-2: Access control by passwords and connection type
2.2.0.3 CyberSentry security
CyberSentry security is available using software options that provide advanced security services. When an option is
purchased, the basic password security is disabled automatically.
CyberSentry provides security through the following features:
• An Authentication, Authorization, Accounting (AAA) Remote Authentication Dial-In User Service (RADIUS) client that is
centrally managed, enables user attribution, provides accounting of all user activities, and uses secure standards-
based strong cryptography for authentication and credential protection
• A Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) system that provides a permission model that allows access to UR device
operations and configurations based on specific roles and individual user accounts configured on the AAA server (that
is, Administrator, Supervisor, Engineer, Operator, Observer roles)
• Security event reporting through the Syslog protocol for supporting Security Information Event Management (SIEM)
systems for centralized cybersecurity monitoring
• Strong encryption of all access and configuration network messages between the EnerVista software and UR devices
using the Secure Shell (SSH) protocol, the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES), and 128-bit keys in Galois Counter
Mode (GCM) as specified in the U.S. National Security Agency Suite B extension for SSH and approved by the National
Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) FIPS-140-2 standards for cryptographic systems
CyberSentry user roles
CyberSentry user roles (Administrator, Engineer, Operator, Supervisor, Observer) limit the levels of access to various UR
functions. This means that the EnerVista software allows for access to functionality based on the user’s logged in role.
Example: Administrative functions can be segmented from common operator functions, or engineering type access, all of
which are defined by separate roles so that access of UR devices by multiple personnel within a substation is allowed.
One role of one type is allowed to be logged in at a time. For example, one Operator can be logged in but not a second
Operator at the same time. This prevents subsets of settings from being changed at the same time.
