3 Product Description
3.1 Outdoor Switching Module
The OSM15/25_Al_1 is a three-phase vacuum circuit breaker designed for outdoor application with the rated
maximum voltage of 15.5 kV and 27 kV correspondingly.
The circuit breaker is installed inside of a lightweight aluminum enclosure with a superior corrosion protection
and very heavy pollution areas application rating. The enclosure of the Outdoor Switching Module
encapsulates a magnetic actuator, mechanical trip and lockout mechanism and auxiliary electric circuits that
contain passive electronic components only.
The switching module is equipped with six high voltage bushings with embedded current and voltage sensors.
The bushings are covered by silicone rubber insulation and mount on the top of the tank and provide 500 mm
(OSM15) or 860 mm (OSM25) creepage distance.
The bushings are marked with the terminal designation X1, X2 or X3 for the default source side and X4, X5 or
X6 for the default load side. The source and load side can be reversed in the RC settings if required.

Mechanism Enclosure
The switching module mechanism enclosure is made of a corrosion resistant anodized aluminum alloy. The
enclosure is coated with light gray powder coating.
15
Fixing holes (M12) on each side of the enclosure allow the application of various mounting kits and installation
on poles and other structures.
The earthing provision (M12) is labelled for identification.
Magnetic Actuator
Tavrida Electric has the most reliable mechanical structure of the vacuum circuit breaker. It uses single-coil
magnetic actuators. All switching elements of a pole are assembled along a single axis. All mechanical
movements are therefore direct and linear. Design of the magnetic actuator guarantee minimum contacts
discrepancy at closing and electrical or mechanical tripping.
Due to the design, any typical failures of critical components, such as mechanical latching, gears, chains,
bearings and levers, tripping and closing coils, motors to charge springs are completely avoided.
Vacuum Interrupter
Tavrida Electric vacuum interrupters are the most compact in its class and show excellent mechanical, voltage
withstand and current breaking capabilities. The use of a specially designed axial magnetic field distribution
provides even current density over the contact surface and consequently substantial improvement of vacuum
interrupting performance. Advanced technology and materials provide vacuum integrity in vacuum interrupter
during the entire switching module lifetime (30 years).

4 Functionality
4.1 Protection
Overview
The protection functionality is designed for the following key applications:
• Radial line recloser;
• Ring line recloser:
▪ Normally closed,
▪ Normally open,
▪ The point of independent power producers’ connection to the grid;
• Rezip recloser – provides protection and reconfiguration in radial, ring and meshed networks where
conventional protection grading is impossible;
• Standard sectionalizer – provides automatic segregation of the faulty section basing on number of upstream
recloser operations;
• Rezip sectionalizer – allows overcoming the limit of the number of sectionalizers in series and minimize
upstream recloser operations to segregate the faulty section.
Protection device mode (Recloser or Sectionalizer) can be independently selected for each of four protection
group.
A complete list of protection elements is presented in the Table 14.
28
Radial line recloser
The Radial line recloser provides protection against the following faults:
• Short circuit. Phase-to-phase and three-phase short circuits;
• Earth fault. Single-phase and double-phase earth faults;
• Bolted fault. Very low impedance fault, typically caused by human factor or accident;
• Low current earth fault caused by a high impedance phase to ground short circuit;
• Upstream broken conductor. Conductor touching ground at the source side;
• Downstream broken conductor. Conductor touching ground at the load side;
• Low system voltage caused by an incorrect network operation mode, tap changer malfunction, under-
generation, or islanding. This protection prevents sensitive loads, such as motors, from overload and
failure;
• Low system frequency caused by local under-generation, islanding or generation system malfunctions;
• High system voltage caused by tap changer malfunction, over-generation or islanding. This protection
prevents sensitive loads from damage;
• High system frequency caused by islanding.
Protection elements against short circuit, high impedance earth fault, low system voltage, and low system
frequency faults are provided with independent reclosing elements.
Reclosing elements are controlled by the Voltage Reclosing Control (VRC). The VRC blocks autoreclosing if
power quality fails to meet customer requirements.
Rezip recloser
The Rezip recloser is used to automate various networks where traditional time and current grading is
impossible. Unlike a conventional recloser, the Rezip recloser can be used in ring and meshed networks and
self-healing schemes. Any number of Rezip reclosers can be connected in series.
Standard sectionalizer
Standard sectionalizer provides automatic segregation of the faulty segment of the radial or ring feeder basing
on number of upstream recloser operations.
Standard sectionalizer provides detection and subsequent trip during the dead time of upstream recloser
• Short circuit. Phase-to-phase and three-phase short circuits;
• Earth fault. Single-phase and double-phase earth faults;
• Low current Earth fault caused by a high impedance phase to ground short circuit.
29
Rezip sectionalizer
The Rezip sectionalizer provides detection and subsequent trip during dead time of upstream recloser as the
Standard sectionalizer.
In addition Rezip sectionalizer automatically finds and segregates the faulty segment of radial, ring or meshed
feeder by opening all devices which have sensed fault current and then close them one by one till the faulty
segment is found. When faulty segment is found, only the nearest device to the fault will open to lockout.
Rezip sectionalizer can be used with other automation features to provide sophisticated network healing
algorithms.
The Rezip sectionalizer allows to:
• Overcome the limit of the number of sectionalizers in series;
• Minimize protection settings design resources (same protection settings for all Rezip sectionalizers for the
most applications can be programmed);
• Minimize the number of upstream recloser operations and power interruptions for healthy network sections.
Protection Elements
OCR mode
OCR mode defines whether device operates as Recloser with OCR element or as a Sectionalizer with SECR
element.
OCR mode can be independently selected for each protection group.
OCR mode settings are described in Table 15.

OC protection consists of six (6) individual overcurrent elements providing three stages of protection for both
the Forward (Source+) and Reverse (Source-) power flow directions: OC1+, OC1-, OC2+, OC2-, OC3+, OC3-
.
OC1
Phase overcurrent low set element OC1 is designated to provide time delayed trips. It is enabled in any
selected sequence in the Overcurrent Reclosing element. „I“ (Instantaneous) stands for accelerated and „D“
(Delayed) for delayed step of overcurrent protection in an autoreclosing sequence.
OC2
Phase overcurrent low set element OC2 is designated to provide accelerated trips. If a sequence step in the
Overcurrent Reclosing Element is set „D“ OC2 element is disabled. If a sequence step in the Overcurrent
Reclosing element is set „I“ OC2 element is enabled.
OC3
Phase fault high set instantaneous element provides protection against phase high current faults with a
reduced number of trips to lockout. If there is no intention to reduce the number of trips to lockout at high
current faults, enabling this element is not recommended. OC1 and OC2 allow reduction of tripping time to any
desired value at high currents.
For details on available TCC refer to Table 20 of this guide.
OC3 element settings are described in Table 21.
EF1
Earth fault low set element EF1 is designated to provide time delayed trips. It is enabled in any selected
sequence in the Overcurrent Reclosing element. „I“ (Instantaneous) stands for accelerated and „D“ (Delayed)
for delayed step of overcurrent protection in an autoreclosing sequence.
EF2
Earth fault low set element EF2 is designated to provide accelerated trips. If a sequence step in the Overcurrent
Reclosing Element is set „D“ EF2 element is disabled. If the sequence step in the Overcurrent Reclosing
element is set „I“ EF2 element is enabled.
EF3
Earth fault high set instantaneous element provides protection against high earth current faults with a reduced
number of trips to lockout. If there is no intention to reduce the number of trips to lockout at high current faults,
enabling this element is not recommended. EF1 and EF2 allow reduction of tripping time to any desired value
at high currents.
For details on available TCC refer to Table 17 of this guide.
EF3 element settings are described in Table 18.

Reset time
The Reset time setting in the autoreclosing element controls the time elapsed between the closing command
execution generated by the relay to the breaker and the time the auto-reclose function resets to the initial cycle.
This timer is used to withstand fault restrikes in case an intermittent fault has been detected.
The First closure time setting controls how quickly autoreclosing will be enabled after an operator (local or
remote) closing command is executed.
34
measured current does not exceed the pickup setting and the Reset timer stops counting, a current reclosing
cycle will be continued. In the case that, after closing, the measured current does not exceed the pickup setting
within the Reset time period, a new autoreclosing sequence will be enabled and will be executed for
consequent faults. The Reset time counter starts counting from zero for each automatic closing event in an
autoreclosing sequence.

This element provides earth fault interruption detection in the networks with insulated/compensated neutral. It
is also applicable in earthed neutral systems for high-impedance earth fault protection. Current based as well
as current and angle based detection option is provided with corresponding settings. SEFID operates
according to definite time TCC.
Sectionalizing (SEC)
This element is available for OCR mode “Sectionalizer” only.
36
This element provides count of upstream recloser operations during the fault and after predefined number of
counts device will trip and lockout if mode is Standard/Rezip or reclose if mode is Rezip.
Standard (with up to 3 series sections in use) and Rezip (with unlimited devices number) modes are supported.
SEC settings are described in Table 33 and Table 34.

Fault Passage Indicator
37
Flag Reset
This element is available for OCR mode “Sectionalizer” only.
This element is used by OCID, EFID and SEFID elements and common for all of them. Interruption detection
element is to remain in corresponding “Flag” state until user-defined time elapsed or manual reset via control
panel or communications.
Flag Reset settings are described in Table 35.
REZIP
Rezip is the automation algorithm that enables complex distribution network automation. Rezip can be used
in networks where the recloser application is not possible due to protection coordination restrictions. The
algorithm is initiated by an upstream recloser trip. Once the loss of supply is detected, all Rezip reclosers will
trip during recloser dead-time. When the recloser closes, it restores supply to the closest Rezip recloser(s). It
activates the AR LS timer and after a preset time Rezip reclosers will close restoring the power supply to
downstream Rezip recloser(s). Immediately after closure Rezip the recloser(s) are operating in Instantaneous
protection mode and if any of them detects the fault, it will trip before the upstream protection device will. By
the time next Rezip recloser is closer by the AR LS, the upstream Rezip OC/EF protection is disabled, so no
grading between Rezip reclosers is needed.
13
In Rezip mode this setting has a fixed value and is unavailable (hidden).
38
The algorithm provides the set-up simplicity of a traditional sectionalizer and at the same time reducing the
fault clearing time and network reconfiguration time application in far more complex networks and provide an
unlimited number of sections to limit the number of customers affected.
Rezip is applicable in meshed grid automation schemes together with ABR functionality. Rezip enables the
building of self-healing networks where it is not possible with conventional reclosers and sectionalizers.

4.2 Measurement
Overview
The Main Processor gets the analog signals from the Outdoor Switching Module current and voltage sensors,
converts them into digital format, and filters it for Harmonic content. The RMS values of the filtered signals are
used for protection and indication as shown in the table below.
16
Residual current In is equal to three times the zero sequence current Io.
17
Voltage and frequency memory is used if all three phase to earth voltages on any side drop below approximately 0.5 kV.

Signal filtering effectively rejects higher harmonics. Phase current measuring channels are additionally
equipped with inrush filters.
Inrush Filter
Reclosers described in the current product guide incorporate a unique inrush filter. This allows filtering of
magnetizing currents occurring at energizing transformers or distribution feeders with step-down-transformers.
In contrast to the widely used inrush restraint, which blocks the operation of protection for the period of inrush,
the filter leaves all protection active and sensitive to faults for the whole period of line energizing.
The advantages are:
• This feature makes it possible to select the settings of current-based protection elements based on actual
load and fault levels, not considering any side effects due to transformer load energizing;
• If, after maintenance closing or performing backfeed restoration for a faulty feeder part, the fault clearing
time is significantly reduced as all protection elements operate correctly without any delays.
Figure 26 and Figure 27 demonstrate the comparison of current measurement results at load energizing
captured by the recloser without and with inrush filter enabled.

Auxiliary VT Installation
Auxiliary voltage transformer should be installed on a dedicated VT holder of a mounting kit.
Line connections to auxiliary voltage transformer should be performed in accordance to a VT technical manual
by trained personnel who are familiar with the equipment.
Earthing
ATTENTION! The Outdoor Switching Module, its mounting frame and the Recloser Control should be
connected to the same earthing bus using 12mm nuts and bolts tightened to 50 Nm.
Earthing points on the OSM15/25_Al_1 and the RC5_4 are shown below.
Figure 49
Earthing terminals position
ATTENTION! Make sure that the system impedance to ground is less than 5 ohms. System impedance to
ground can be measured on site using special equipment or previously measured value for particular
grounding bar can be provided by the utility. In case this requirement is not met it may lead to death or injury
to people during operation.
76
It is recommended to arrange high voltage assembly earthing as it shown in Figure 50. The Outdoor Switching
Module, mounting frame, auxiliary supply VTs should be earthed using separate earthing jumpers connected
to the common earthing bus. Surge arresters grounding wires should be connected to special earthing
provisions placed on surge arresters holders.
Figure 50
Complete earthing assembly
Aerial Connectors
Aerial connectors (Figure 51) provide a reliable connection of cable conductors from 35 to 240 mm2 cross
section. Aerial connectors and fasteners are made of stainless steel. The clamp is made of Sn-Bi coated brass.
Figure 51 Figure 52
Aerial connector Conductor connection via aerial connectors
77
Protective covers can be used to protect connections against the environment (Figure 53 and Figure 54).If
cable diameter is more than 10 mm, the cone end of each cover should be cut to the corresponding diameter
to fit the cable tightly (Figure 55).
Figure 53 Figure 54
Aerial connector with bird protection Aerial connector with bird protection
Figure 55
Aerial connector with bird protection
NEMA Connectors
Two-hole and Four-hole NEMA palm connectors (Figure 56) provide a reliable connection to power line of any
type of conductors treated correspondingly.
NEMA connectors are preinstalled and tightened the Outdoor Switching Module terminals during assembly.
The power line connection can be done using the M12 bolts and nuts (not supplied). It is recommended to use
HDG or stainless steel M12 fasteners and tin-coated cable lugs for power line connection to prevent corrosion.
Figure 56
NEMA palm connectors
Tightening torque for power line connection depends on M12 fasteners material used, but not less than 40
Nm.
Surge arresters and auxiliary VT HV terminals connection can be done directly to NEMA terminals.
Special NEMA protective covers can be used to protect line connections against the birds or aggressive
environmental factors (Figure 57).

ATTENTION! Corresponding AC1 and AC2 earthing jumpers should be removed before external AC/DC
source with predefined neutral is connected to the RC5_4.
After the main line is powered, the commissioning engineer should make sure that the auxiliary supply is
connected correctly. The auxiliary supply voltage should be checked by digital voltmeter.
For that purpose the RC5_4 battery switch should be set OFF, corresponding AC switch (both switches if two
supply options is used) set ON.
Measured AC voltage at terminals 1-2 and 8-9 (in case two VTs are installed) should not exceed the limits of
85-265 V.
