3.6 Time Delayed Measured Earth Fault Protection (51G)
One time delayed measured earth fault element is provided in the 7SR45 Argus Relay.
51G-1
51G-n Setting
sets the pick-up current level.
A total of 7 shaped characteristics are provided from IEC and ANSI. An inverse definite minimum time (IDMT)
characteristic is selected using
51G-n Char
. A time multiplier is applied to the characteristic curves using the
51G-n Time Mult setting
. Alternatively, a Definite Time Lag (DTL) can be chosen using
51G-n Char
.
When DTL is selected the time multiplier is not applied and the
51G-n Delay (DTL)
setting is used instead.
The
51G-n Reset
setting can apply a
definite time delayed
reset, or when the operation is configured as an IEC
or ANSI if the reset is selected as
IEC/ANSI (DECAY)
, reset the associated reset curve will be used. The reset
mode is significant where the characteristic has reset before issuing a trip output.
A minimum operate time for the characteristic can be set using
51G-n MinOperate
setting.
A fixed additional operate time can be added to the characteristic using
51G-n Follower
setting.
Operation of the time delayed measured earth fault elements can be inhibited by assigning binary inputs.
