Carriers used in PLCC system -RF currents of the frequencies
between 30 kHz and 500 kHz.
Low Frequency limitation of 30 kHz :
Harmonics, Switching and Lightening Surges, Corona present in the
frequency band of 100Hz to 30 KHz.
Signal to Noise Ratio will be quite poor.
Difficult to separate power & radio frequency components (mv)
Cost of Coupling Equipment is high
High frequency limitation of 500KHz :
High Radiation losses.
Increase of Interference to and from other services.
POWER LINE CARRIER COMMUNICATION
The method involves superposition of radio
frequency channel on a power circuit without
interference of or from power system

PRINCIPLE OF TESTING
71
Teleprotection required for high speed relaying
which is facilitated by:
•Comparing fault conditions at line terminal
•High speed simultaneous clearing of faults from
both ends of the faulty section
•Blocking unwarranted isolation in the event of
fault in the line section.
Teleprotection
72
•Carrier is employed to compare the phase relation
between current entering one terminal of a transmission
line section and leaving another
Teleprotection
Phase Comparison Scheme :-
•With the initiation of tripping of a line at one end, a signal is
sent out over the carrier simultaneously to the other end and
cause remote end beaker also to trip.
Trip Transfer Scheme :-
•A Blocking signal is sent out in the opposite direction of
fault to prevent tripping of the remote end circuit breaker
which is also sensing the fault.
Directional Comparison Scheme :-
73
•Improved transient stability of the system
•Reduced line damage & possible melting of
conductor
•Minimum outage time with the help of high
speed autoreclosing

Criteria for Selection of Teleprotection

76
Intertripping Criteria
The 3 main characteristics of intertripping are :
Transfer time: During a fault, damage incurred to HV equipment will depend on the fault
clearance time.
The transfer time of the intertripping equipment, (the time between the acquisition of a
protection signal to its restitution at the other end), must therefore be as short as
possible to minimize the fault clearance time.
Reliability/Dependability: Since the communication can be altered by noise due to the
high voltage environment, the intertripping signal shall be transmitted in a way to
minimize the risk of losing a command that would lead to the non functioningof
the fault clearance process. This value is expressed as the Probability of Missing
commandPmc.
Security: Since intertripping is often used to protect “strategic”lineson which a shut-
down would have heavy consequences, the intertripping has to ensure that a command
that can disconnect an HV line is a TRUEcommand and not due to noise coming
from the HV environment. This value is expressed as the probability of unwanted
command Pucfor the worst-case being with the highest noise .
