(3) Overload module
The overload module is located inside the generator control box. This overload module
(5, Fig 7)
is a solid-state device designed to interpret a signal from the current transformers and to send a
signal to the protective monitor module
(7, Fig. 7)
when an overload condition exists in any gener-
ator output phase. A pull-apart electrical connector is mounted on the owerload module to provide
quick-disconnect facilities for all wiring to the module. The overload module is equipped with a
hermetically sealed, reed-type relay. Relay contacts are normally open. The solid-state circuitry is
designed to close relay contacts when output current in ANY phase reaches 125% of normal
rated output capacity. The closed relay sends a signal to the protective monitor. This signal
“gates” the overload SCR
(silicone-controlled rectifier)
in the protective monitor and interrupts the
load contactor holding circuit, allowing the load contactor to open.
The following is a list of overload module characteristics:
NOTE: The overload protective system will function when any phase carries 123% to 127% of
rated load.
At 125% load the module will function in 4 minutes.
At 150% load the module will function in 16 seconds.
At 200% load the module will function in 4 seconds.
NOTE: All times are plus or minus 25% and are nonadjustable.
(4) Rectifier
A diode bridge rectifier is located inside the generator control box.
(See Fig. 7, item 10)
. This di-
ode-bridge rectifier receives 400-Hz AC from phase C of the generator output an converts it to a
pulsating, direct current for energization of the load contactor coil only. This DC coil-holding circuit
is controlled indirectly be controlling the 400-Hz AC to the rectifier. The ground circuit for the recti-
fier’s AC supply must pass through the relay contacts in the protective monitor module to ground
cable N. Therefore, any time a protective device functions to open the protective monitor relay,
the rectifier’s AC circuit is opened. No DC is then available for the load contactor coil, hence, the
load contactor opens.
