For our sample coordination study, with a U4 curve selected to have an 880
ampere pickup and a 0.8
Time Dial
setting, we are well below the limits shown
for the operation of the “I
2
t security characteristic” during fault levels up to 14.5
kA. The
Time Dial
setting is below the threshold of 10.0 at a
Pickup
setting of
1200 amperes.
If the setting was above the limit for the “I
2
t security characteristic,” a warning message
would be displayed with the calculation of the cross over point in primary amperes of the
selected US or IEC curve with the “I
2
t security characteristic” curve. A sample warning
message is shown below.
“Phase overcurrent control will operate on the TOC curve for faults up to 18476 A.
Phase overcurrent control will operate on its maximum I
2
t (thermal) limit curve for
faults above 18476 A. Refer to S&C Instruction Sheet 681515 Appendix D.”
When this occurs, the user must consider the following:
If the fault level displayed in the warning message is
higher
than the maximum
avail able fault current level at the switchgear assembly, the “I
2
t security character
istic” will not become enabled. If the fault level displayed in the warning message is
lower
than the maximum available fault current level, then the “I
2
t security character
istic” will become enabled resulting in a faster time to operate. To prevent this from
occurring, new settings selec tions should be considered to prevent miscoordination
between upstream sourceside and downstream loadside devices. Contact S&C Electric
Company—Power Systems Solutions for application assistance.
