BE1-51/27R - Tests And Adjustments
NOTE
For three-phase relays, ensure that the test signals are connected to both the current and
voltage terminals for the same phase.
NOTE
For relays with two-phase-and-neutral or three-phase-and-neutral sensing (sensing input
types E, F, U, W, Y, or Z), perform Steps 10 through 15. Otherwise, the time overcurrent
pickup point calibration ends here (unless instantaneous 1 or 2 overcurrent calibration is
to be performed later in these procedures).
NOTE
Pickup point calibration ends here.
Step 2.
Remove the relay front cover.
Step 3.
Sensing Input Types B, C, M, N, R, or S. Verify that the front panel TAP RANGE plate is installed
so the correct range (HIGH or LOW) is visible.
Step 4.
Adjust the test voltage to 100 percent of nominal voltage for your relay and the test current to the
desired time overcurrent pickup point for the relay.
Step 5.
Set the front panel TAP selector to the closest setting above the desired pickup point.
Step 6.
Adjust the front panel TAP CAL control fully CW.
Step 7.
Apply current to the relay.
Step 8.
Slowly adjust the front panel TAP CAL control CCW until the front panel TIMING indicator just
illuminates which indicates the desired time overcurrent pickup point for phase sensing. For relays
with two-phase-and-neutral, three-phase, or three-phase-and-neutral sensing, this pickup point will
be the same for all the phases.
Step 9.
Remove input current.
Step 10. Reconnect the test set output to the neutral sense terminals. See Figures 5-3, 5-5, or 5-6.
Step 11. Adjust the current to the desired time overcurrent pickup point for the relay.
Step 12. Set the front panel TAP (NEUTRAL) selector to the closest setting above the desired pickup point.
Step 13. Rotate the front panel CAL (NEUTRAL) control fully CW.
Step 14. Slowly adjust the front panel CAL (NEUTRAL) control CCW until the front panel TIMING
(NEUTRAL) indicator just illuminates to establish the desired time overcurrent pickup point for
neutral sensing.
Step 15. Remove input current.
Time Overcurrent Curve Selection (Timing Type Z1, Z2, and Z3 Only)
Step 1.
Remove the relay case front cover to gain access to the logic board time overcurrent characteristic
curve selector.
