2ndHarmStab : The rate of 2nd harmonic current content for activation of the 2nd
harmonic restrain signal, to block chosen steps. The setting is given in % of the
fundamental frequency residual current. The setting range is
5 - 100 % in steps of 1%. The
default setting is 20% and can be used if a deeper investigation shows that no other value
is needed..
HarmRestrainx : This parameter can be set Disabled / Enabled , to disable or enable the 2nd
harmonic restrain.
The four step phase overcurrent protection 3-phase output can be used in different ways,
depending on the application where the protection is used. A general description is given
below.
The pickup current setting of the inverse time protection, or the lowest current step of the
definite time protection, must be defined so that the highest possible load current does not
cause protection operation. Here consideration also has to be taken to the protection reset
current, so that a short peak of overcurrent does not cause operation of the protection even
when the overcurrent has ceased. This phenomenon is described in figure
37 .
