Abstract
Abstract In a digital protective relaying device utilizing a microcomputer for protecting an electric power transmission system, a setting switch is provided for writing the values into the computer after the relaying operation of the protective device is locked by a locking means. The protective values thus set in the computer is indicated on an indicating device under the control of the computer and visually checked by an operator, while the computer always confirming the coincidence of the set values with the indicated values.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 4
Claim 1
Independent Claim
157 words
In a digital protective relaying device for protecting an electric power transmission system, the device comprising an analog/digital converter for converting an electric quantity related to said electric power transmission system to a digital value, an electronic computer of a digital input/output type for performing a relaying operation, a setting switch for setting a value required for the protection of said power transmission system in said computer, and an indicator, the improvement comprising: means for locking the relaying operation of said computer, means for storing in said computer the value set by said setting switch during the locking period of said computer, means for indicating said value stored in said computer in said indicator, means for releasing the locking of said computer, means for comparing the value set by said setting switch with the value stored in said computer, and means for generating an alarm signal when the two values thus compared are found to be unequal.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
157 words
In a digital protective relaying device for protecting an electric power transmission system, the device comprising an analog/digital converter for converting an electric quantity related to said electric power transmission system to a digital value, an electronic computer of a digital input/output type for performing a relaying operation, a setting switch for setting a value required for the protection of said power transmission system in said computer, and an indicator, the improvement comprising: means for locking the relaying operation of said computer, means for storing in said computer the value set by said setting switch during the locking period of said computer, means for indicating said value stored in said computer in said indicator, means for releasing the locking of said computer, means for comparing the value set by said setting switch with the value stored in said computer, and means for generating an alarm signal when the two values thus compared are found to be unequal.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
26 words
A digital protective relaying device as set forth in claim 1 wherein a lamp is further provided for indicating a locking state of the relaying operation.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
51 words
A digital protective relaying device as set forth in claim 1 further comprising: means for maintaining the relaying operation of said computer in a locked state when inequality is found between said two values, and means for indicating a predetermined numeral or symbol when inequality is found between said two values.
