7SR224 Argus Description of Operation
3.1.2 Instantaneous Overcurrent Protection (50)
Four elements are provided e.g. giving the option of using two elements set to forward and two to reverse.
Each instantaneous element (50-n) has independent settings.
50-n Setting
for pick-up current and
50-n Delay
follower time delay. The instantaneous elements have transient free operation.
For the directional elements the direction of operation can be set using
50-n Dir. Control
setting. Directional logic
is provided independently for each 50-n element.
Operation of the instantaneous overcurrent elements can be inhibited from:
Inhibit 50-n
A binary or virtual input, or function key.
79 P/F Inst Trips: 50-n
When ‘delayed’ trips only are allowed in the autoreclose sequence
(
79 P/F Prot’n Trip n
=
Delayed
).
50-n Inrush Action: Inhibit
Operation of the inrush current detector function.
50-n VTS Action: Inhibit
Operation of the VT Supervision function.
