Auto-reclose schemes are of great importance in Power System control requirements in order to improve the reliability of the energy service given to costumers. Implementing automatic controls to reestablish line connections permits reducing time in respect to manual-close operations, which means that in an automatic reclose of a circuit breaker the time spent is less than a minute. In consequence, the reliability starts increasing. It is possible to find several configurations of substations; that is why the application of an automatic reclose system requires different specifications according to the topology of the network and substation. For instance, the single busbar arrangement has only one circuit breaker (CB) to reclose while the ring and breaker-and-a-half configurations involve more than one CB. Particularly, ring substations not only require reclosing two circuit breakers, but also it is necessary to consider several conditions of substation topology so as to avoid problems over power equipment in the substation and the power system. This paper is focused on describing the different conditions that the auto-reclose scheme of a ring arrangement can consider and how it deals with them. A variety of important apparatus such as transformers and capacitive compensators have a direct influence on the reclose scheme definition. Special scenarios have to be taken into consideration, to name a few, the reclose of a circuit breaker when it connects a line to a transformer; a compensation bank in a ring configuration; and circuit breaker switching onto faults. Because of the electromagnetic impact produced on the substation's components that is appreciable when an auto-reclose is done, it is a requisite to count on a set of criteria to carry out the automatic reclose scheme in a ring configuration. In this case, our operation experience has shown that the auto-reclose should be avoided when the line's circuit breaker is closed and simultaneously it energizes one of the equipment mentioned above. Thus, this know-how becomes critical to design the scheme. This research shows criteria, conditions and tests of an automatic reclose scheme in a ring substation at 66 kV. Also, several logics forming control system of the reclose scheme will be illustrated. Furthermore, results of the scheme tests will be analyzed and conclusions and suggestions will be included.
