MiCOM Agile P34x
Generator Protection Systems
​
GE's MiCOM Agile P34x generator protection relays provide flexible and reliable integration of protection, control, monitoring and measurement functions for a wide range of applications. The P34x relay platform is available in six models that cover most installations from small generators to sophisticated systems including generator-transformer applications and large variable speed double fed induction pumped storage machines.
​
Key features:
​
-
Comprehensive protection functions, flexible communications options with a number of protocols and ports
-
Generator turbine abnormal frequency protection monitors the accumulated time spent at each frequency band
-
Check synchronization function with an option to compensate for magnitude and phase angle
-
User-friendly programmable scheme logic allows easy customization of the protection and control functions
-
Current loop analogue inputs and outputs for remote monitoring
-
No internal batteries in GE-branded models – removes a maintenance item and eases air-freight logistics
-
Binary inputs ESI48-4 EB2 compliant
-
Binary inputs offer programmable pickup voltage thresholds and filtering enabling a truly universal application
-
High break output contacts eliminate reliance on auxiliary devices
-
Unique low frequency protection for variable speed double fed induction machines
-
Rotor earth fault protection
-
Harsh environment protection extends the life of the product
​

Software
The Agile Generator/DG Interconnection/DLR P341-6 IEDs are now available with software 38/72. This software allows new enhancements and protection improvements in P341-6 range of products.
​
The IEDs available with the new software are:
-
P341 Interconnection/DLR: Hardware P (P341) / Software v38 (standard), v72 (with DLR)
-
P342-6 Generator: Hardware P (P342), M (P343/4/5/6) / Software v38
The new software features:
-
Enhanced power protection with 4 stages of single phase power/VAR (P341-6) selectable as A/B/C phase or 4 stages wattmetric power/VAR (P345) and 4 stages of 3 phase power/VAR protection (P341-6)
-
New minimum power setting reduced to 0.2%Pn for large generator reverse power applications
-
New user curves for overcurrent, voltage dependent overcurrent, earth fault, SEF, under/overvoltage, NVD, V/Hz for creation of user specific characteristics eg for undervoltage fault ride through applications
-
Independent voltage dependent overcurrent (51V) and underimpedance (21) protection
-
New field failure directional line and increase in setting ranges for field failure elements
-
3rd stage of undervoltage protection
-
Enhanced cybersecurity
-
New PSL counters and timers settable in PSL or in settings enables more complex logic schemes to be created such as equivalent logic to TP2xx pole slipping (de-synchronization) relay
-
A large range of communications protocols including IEC61850 8-1 and new DNP 3.0 over Ethernet
-
New XCPU3 with extended memory, new opto input and PSU design (P and M hardware)
