Transformers and cable are prone to damage by overloads that last for an extended period of time. Overloads
cannot and should not be detected by fault protection. Time overcurrent protection should be set high
enough to only detect faults since these must be cleared in a short time. Short time delays, however, do
neither allow measures to discharge overloaded equipment nor do they permit to take advantage of its
(limited) overload capacity.
The 7SJ62/64 devices feature an overload protection function with thermal tripping characteristic adaptable to
the overload capability of the equipment being protected (overload protection with memory function).
Overload protection can be switched
ON
or
OFF
or set to
Alarm Only
at address 4201
FCT 49
. If overload
protection is
ON
, tripping, trip log and fault recording is possible.
When setting
Alarm Only
no trip command is given, no trip log is initiated and no spontaneous fault annun-
ciation is shown on the display.

NOTE
Changing the function parameters resets the thermal replica. The thermal model is frozen (kept constant),
as soon as the current exceeds the setting value 1107
I MOTOR START
.
Overload Parameter k-factor
The overload protection is set in reference values. The nominal current
Ι
Nom Obj.
of the protected object (motor,
transformer, cable) is used as the basic current for overload protection. By means of the thermal consistently
permissible current
Ι
max
, a factor k
prim
can be calculated:
[formel-kfaktor-260602-kn, 1, en_US]
The thermally permissible continuous current for the equipment being protected is known from the manufac-
turers specifications. This function is normally not applicable to overhead lines since the current capability of
overhead lines is generally not specified. For cables, the permissible continuous current is dependent on the
cross-section, insulating material, design, and the cable routing, among other things. It may be taken from
pertinent tables, or is specified by the cable manufacturer. If no specifications are available, a value of 1.1
times the nominal current rating may be assumed.
For the
49 K-FACTOR
to be set in the device the following applies (address 4202)
