VT fuse fail (VTFF or 60VTS)
The 350 relay includes one VT Fuse Failure element. The measured voltages from the
installed phase VTs are monitored and compared against user programmable levels. If one
or two of the three voltages drops to less than 70% of nominal, and at the same time any
of the three voltages is greater than 85%, either an Alarm or a Trip will occur after a
1 second delay. The 70% threshold allows for the possibility that the downstream voltage
from a blown fuse is pulled up above zero by devices connected between the open fuse
and another phase. The VT reference for the VTFF element is the phase to neutral voltage
for Wye-connected VTs, and the phase-phase voltage for a Delta-connected VT. The VT
Connection, VT Ratio and VT Secondary voltage are user programmable values under
SETPOINTS > S2 SYSTEM SETUP > VOLTAGE SENSING
