14.7 Troubleshooting PR123/P unit
The following table lists a series of typical service conditions, to help you understand and solve hypothetical faults or malfunctions.
Note:
1.
Before consulting the following table, check for any error messages appearing for some seconds on the display.
2.
FN indicates the normal operation of the PR123/P.
3.
In the case where the suggestions proposed do not lead to a solution of the problem, please contact the ABB SACE assistance service.

Situation
Possible causes
Suggestions
1
The trip test cannot be run
1. The busbar current is > 0
1. FN
2. The TC is not connected
2. Check the messages on the display
2
Trip times lower than expected
1. Threshold too low
1. Correct threshold
2. Curve too low
2. Correct curve
3. Thermal memory enabled
3. Exclude if not necessary
4. Incorrect Neutral Selection
4. Correct Neutral Selection
5. The SdZ is inserted
5. Exclude if not necessary
3
Trip times higher than expected
1. Threshold too high
1. Correct threshold
2. Curve too high
2. Correct curve
3. Curve I
2
t inserted
3. Exclude if not necessary
4. Incorrect Neutral Selection
4. Correct Neutral Selection
4
Rapid trip, with I3=Off
Iinst tripped
FN with short-circuit with high I
5
High earth I, but no trip happens
1. Incorrect selection of the sensor
1. Set int. or ext. sensor
2. Function G prevented with I>4In
2. FN
6
Display off
1. Vaux missing and the current and/or 1. FN, see 14.2.2.1
voltage are below the minimum value.
2. Temperature out of range
2. FN, see 14.2.9.8
7
The display is not back-lit
Current and/or voltages below the
FN
limit for lighting the display
8
Reading of I incorrect
Current below the minimum threshold FN
that can be displayed
9
Reading of V, W and power
1) Connection error between VT
1) Check connections between VT and
factor incorrect
and PR120/V
PR120
2) Voltage parameter setting error
2) Set correct parameters
