The blocking of the function causes an HMI display event and a time-stamped blocking event with
information of the startup current values and its fault type to be issued.
The blocking signal can also be tested in the commissioning phase by a software switch signal when
the relay's testing mode "Enable stage forcing" is activated (
General
→
Device).
The variables the user can set are binary signals from the system. The blocking signal needs to reach
the device minimum of 5 ms before the set operating delay has passed in order for the blocking to
activate in time.
Operating time characteristics
The behavior of the function's operating timers can be set for activation as well as for the situation
monitoring and release of the cold load pick-up.
The table below presents the setting parameters for the function's time characteristics.
Table. 5.4.3 - 238. Setting parameters for operating time characteristics.

Description
T
set
0.000…1800.000s 0.005s 10.000s
The function's start timer which defines how long the
I
low
condition has to
last before the cold load pick-up is activated.
T
max
0.000…1800.000s 0.005s 30.000s
The function's maximum timer which defines how long the starting
condition can last and for how long the current is allowed to be over
I
high
.
T
min
0.000…1800.000s 0.005s 0.040s
The function's minimum timer which defines how long the starting condition
has to last at the minimum. If the start-up sequence includes more than
one inrush situation, this parameter may be used to prolong the cold load
pick-up time over the first inrush. Additionally, this parameter operates as
the "reclaim" time for the function in case the inrush current is not
immediately initiated in the start-up sequence.
The six examples below showcase some typical cases with the cold load pick-up function.
