SECTION 1. INTRODUCTION
1.0 General
The MP-3000 is an advanced microprocessor-based motor protection relay that is easy to set up
and use. It monitors, controls and protects motors against overload, thermal damage to rotor or
stator, electrical faults, and excessive starting, and many process equipment failures. Advanced
algorithms and thermal models give safe operation over a wide range of conditions.
The MP-3000 protects 50 or 60 Hz three-phase motors of any size or voltage level. It can
protect induction or synchronous motors, with or without RTDs. It is frequently installed in motor
starters or switchgear.
The MP-3000 Motor Protection relay provides the following protection, alarm, and control
