 Pick-Up
Pick-Up and
and Time
Time Delay
Delay Characteristics
Characteristics

ITI GFM sensors are assigned a current range to indicate a pick-up current level.

The GFM relay has a range select from “A” to “D”. “A” is the lowest current

magnitude pick-up and “D” is the highest . The pick up level is dependent on the

energy in a ground fault wave shape; therefore tripping initiation depends on the

wave shape and regularity of the fault current .

In general, the relay will pick up before 150% of the low end of the sensor

current range on the “A” setting with a sinusoidal signal, and will pick up before

150% of the high end of the sensor range on the “D” setting. The relay is

adjustable continuously from “A” to “D” so that identical sensors can be

coordinated.

The ITI GFM ground fault system has inverse time current trip characteristics.

As the fault current increases, the trip time delay gets shorter. The GFM-252,

GFM-353, GFM-453 relays do not have adjustable trip time delay, while the

GFM-262, GFM-363, GFM-463 relays have adjustable trip time delay.

Trip time on Models with f ixed time delay, may exceed a one second delay at

the pick up threshold. Trip time on Models with adjustable time delay, may

exceed a one second delay at the pick up threshold, however the inverse time

curve can be modif ied to vary trip time at multiples of over current with an

ordinal “1” to “4” is scale where “1” is faster and “4” is slower.

The pick up time delay on the f ixed time delay relays can be as fast as 0.02

seconds on the “A” setting, and 0.1 seconds on the “D” setting at high fault

currents.

For the adjustable time delay relays, a time delay of “1” in the “A” scale can

produce a time delay of under 0.15 seconds at a 600% sinusoidal fault . A time

delay setting of “4” will result in a time delay approximately 0.2 seconds slower

than the “1” setting. Time delay will be greater for smaller fault current .

Similarly, a time delay setting of “1” in the “D” scale can produce a time delay

of under 0.4 seconds at a 600% sinusoidal fault . A time delay setting of “4” will

result in a time delay approximately 0.2 seconds slower than the “1” setting.

Time delay will be greater for smaller fault current .

 FIXED DELAY TYPES

GFM Test Procedure

A Simulated fault current can be applied by the above test circuit .

An appropriate value of R1 should be selected to apply a minimum of 1.5 times maximum trip rating of the sensor.

1. Assure that the GFM relay is in “ NORMAL ” (reset) position.

2. Close switch S1, and check for reset for response. Relay handle will move to the tripped position.

3. Open S1, reset the relay and remove the test circuit from the system. System is now back to normal.

THE ABOVE TEST PROCEDURES SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.

The actual time delay adjustment is continuously variable between instantaneous and 1 second. The time delay

tolerance is + 15% of setting.

Test Procedure

To determine if the neutral is grounded in only one place at the service entrance ( in accordance with The National

Electrical Code):

1. Disconnect power.

2. Remove ground bond link.

3. With a “megger”, measure the resistance of each phase and neutral to ground. The resistance should be 1 megohm in

accordance with NEC requirements. Reading as low as 100 ohms will pass a minimal current so as not to affect BGFL

calibration on the 100 - 1200A relay. The 5-60A and 30-360A relay calibration will be affected if set at the lowest

setting.

4. Reconnect bond link, reconnect power and check power LED for illumination.

To test the entire system including the disconnect device:

1. Check for control power, the LED should be illuminated.

2. Press the “Push To Test ” switch on the relay. The trip indicator will go to the tripped position and disconnect device will

open.

3. Reset the relay and the disconnect device. System is now back to normal.

To test the ground Fault Relay and Sensor only (The sensor will trip the relay in this tes t ).

1. Check for control power, the LED should be illuminated.

2. Press and HOLD the “Shunt Trip Bypass” switch on the relay.

3. Press the “Push To Test” switch. The Ground Fault Relay will trip.

4. Reset the relay, then release the “Shunt Trip Bypass” switch. System is now back to normal.

THE ABOVE TEST PROCEDURES SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ONLY.

Status Indication

LPVRB Operation with Options

A unique microcontroller-based voltage and phase sensing circuit constantly monitors the three phase voltages to detect harmful power line conditions.

When a harmful condition is detected, the LPVRB’s output relay is deactivated after a specif ied trip delay. The output relay reactivates after power line

conditions return to an acceptable level for a specif ied amount of time (Restart Delay) or after a manual reset . The trip and restart delays prevent nuisance

tripping due to rapidly fluctuating power line conditions.

The Model LPVRB automatically senses whether it is connected to a 190 to 240V 60 Hz system, a 440 to 480V 60 Hz system, or a 380 to 416V

50 Hz system. An adjustment is provide to set the normal line voltage from 190-240 or 380-480 VAC. Other adjustments include a 1-30 second trip delay,

a 1-500 second restart delay, and a 2-8% voltage unbalance trip adjustment .

Two LEDs indicate the status of the Model LPVRB; Run Light , Under Voltage, Over Voltage, Phasing Fault/Reverse Phase, and Manual Reset . The LPVRB ships

with a jumper installed for automatic restart . A connector with 12” wires is included for manual reset switch.

Applications Notes
If the power conditions are normal, 3 seconds after power is supplied to the APVR the contacts will transfer, permitting operation. In normal applications, this

power will already be applied to the APVR and there is no time delay in operating.

The correct phase sequence must be established upon initial installation for proper operation of the relay. Any subsequent change in phase will cause the

relay to trip. If the relay is re-energized and the phase sequence is incorrect the relay will not operate.

The device is shipped from the factory in the automatic reset mode with a jumper on terminals 6 & 7. Operation can be changed from automatic reset to

manual reset by removing the external jumper. Automatic reset means that upon fault removal the device reset automatically to perform is mounting

function. For manual reset simply remove the jumper and connect a normally open pushbutton across terminals 6 and 7.

Upon application of power the green LED indicator will illuminate. If a fault exists the green LED will remain illuminated for these three seconds and then go

out . This is normal and indicates that line power is present but a fault condition has been detected. The output contacts will remain in their de-energized

failsafe state.

If no fault exists upon application of power the green LED indicator illuminates and three seconds later the relay contacts transfer. Upon detection of a fault ,

the green indicator light will go out and three seconds later the relay contacts revert to their de-energized state. This three second delay prevents nuisance

tripping of the APVR.

In service the line voltage to the device may be interrupted on various occasions. In the automatic reset mode the device will resume its monitoring function

approximately three seconds after power is restored. In the manual reset mode the reset pushbutton must be pressed.

“Failsafe ” operation is achieved by the following features:

1) The relay is energized and the output contacts are transferred under “ normal ” conditions only.

2) Should the output relay itself fail or in the event of internal circuit failure, the relay will revert to the de-energized position.

• The model LLV and PNV series of voltage transformers are expanded scale instruments which are designed to accurately measure voltages on three phase

systems. The LLV series is designed to meter line to line voltages and the PNV series is designed to meter phase to neutral voltages. The transducers provide

three discrete 4 to 20mA outputs that are proportional to the three phase input voltages. The input voltages scale does not meter down to zero Volts, instead it

is limited to the normal useful range of input voltages for a particular system. For example: The model PNV-120 has an input signal range from 90 to 150 V ac

and will yield an output of 4 to 20 mA dc for that range. The output is true constant current driver and is unaffected by resistance variations from 0-600 ohms

in the output loop. An external 24Vdc supply is needed to provide power for the internal solid state circuitry. The power supply input has reverse polarity

protection to prevent damage from an accidental miswire. The high accuracy solid state circuity is average responding calibrated to read RMS. This device is

an ANSI/ISO 50.1 Class L3 transmitter.

a rated 5A secondary.

The output require 24V dc to be applied between the (+) terminal and ground. The

output load may be inserted in either the ( -) line for a negative ground system. Power

supply polarity is critical for correct operation, but an accidental reverse polarity

connection will not damage the output . Several transducers can be operated from a

single power supply with the only limitation being the maximum current available

from the supply itself.

(Example: a one Amp supply will support 50 transducers operating at 20mA dc

output .) The maximum output is limited to 30mA dc to prevent damage to external

components.

CAUTION:

Some consideration should be given to the ripple content of the external power

supply. Any ripple introduced by the power supply will appear at the load resistor.

A Current Transformer secondary should never be open circuited white the Current Transformer primary circuit is energized. If this situation should occur

there is a possibility of developing extremely high voltages which could be dangerous to personnel or cause an insulation breakdown.

The OCP series of Open Protectors are voltage sensing devices using high shorting SCR switches. When the secondary peak voltages exceeds the clamping

voltage value, the SCR operates, shorting the C.T. secondary and reducing the voltage to about 2 volts in less than 1/4 cycle. This process repeats each current

polarity reversal. The protection is activated each half cycle.

The three element Open Circuit Protector is Protector is provided with six terminals for connection across the secondary of the C.T’s and parallel with burden.

It can also be connected across the current terminals of a protective relay, meter, or other current operated device without affecting the operation of the

device. Secondary polarity of the C.T’s is not critical to the OCP.

The OCP also provides protection against high secondary voltage transients, which may damage the burden or secondary winding. If the transient voltage

exceeds the voltage clamping limit , the Open Circuit Protector will trigger. After triggering, the voltage will fall to about 2 volts and remain there until the next

zero crossing of the current , waveform at which time the device resets and the cycle repeats as necessary. In the transient mode of protection, triggering will

occur only on the half cycle where the transient appears. The leakage current of the OCP is insignif icant and will not cause a ratio or phase angle error in the

Current Transformer accuracy.

Metering class C.T.’s with a rating factor of 2 could operate up to 10 amps on a continuos basis. Relaying class C.T.’s are designed to withstand short time

overloads up to 20 times normal (100 amps RMS) for 2 seconds. The OCP is designed to tolerate both of these conditions if the burden accidentally opens.

• These devices are protected against inadvertent output short circuit , inductive kickback from the trip coil, and input line voltage surges.

Nominal 120 Volts ac ,or 125 Volts dc is applied between the ’AC ’ and ’ COM ’ term inals. This voltage is half wave rectif ied and applied across the trip capacitor,

giving an output trip voltage. The charge stored in this capacitor (330 uF or 1500 uF) is available between the ‘+’ and ’COM ’ terminals for breaker trip coil

operation. The half wave rectif ication circuitry provides the advantage of maintaining a common neutral connection from input while still maintaining the

The capacitor is continuously charged when control power is available, providing energy for normal trip coil operation. Because mechanical relays are not

involved, energy for the trip coil operation is immediately available with the loss of control power. When the control power returns, the capacitor automatically

• These devices are protected against inadvertent output short circuit , inductive kickback from the trip coil, and input line voltage surges.

Nominal 120 Volts ac , or 240 Volts ac is is applied between the “ INPUT ” and “ COMMON ” terminals. This voltage is half wave rectif ied and applied across

the trip capacitor, giving an output trip voltage. The charge stored in these capacitors is available between the ‘+’ and “ COMMON ” terminals for breaker trip

coil operation. The half wave rectif ication circuitry provides the advantage of maintaining a common neutral connection from input while still maintaining the

charge in the the trip capacitor after control power is lost .

The capacitor is continuously charged when control power is available, providing energy for normal trip coil operation. Because mechanical relays are not

involved, energy for the trip coil operation is immediately available with the loss of control power. When the control power returns, the capacitor automatically

charges to supply energy for the next trip coil.

An alarm relay is incorporated to continuously monitor the input and output condition of the device. The relay is normally energy when both input and

output voltage are present . If either the input voltage is lost or the output voltage falls below 85% of the normal output level the output alarm contacts

transfer to their de-energized status state. LED indicates normal operation. The LED goes out when the alarm contacts transfer to their de-energized state.

NOTES:

1. The output contacts are shown in the de-energized condition. Contacts will pick up when input and output voltage is present . If the output DC voltage drops

below 85% of the expected operating level or the input voltage is lost , then the contacts will change state and the LED indictor will no longer illuminate.

2. TDR is temperature dependent resistor.

• The Capacitor Trip Device (CTDA-6) is used to trip circuit breakers and lock out relay when a battery standby source is not available to provide circuit breaker

trip power. The CTDA-6 converts ac buss voltage to dc voltage and stores enough energy to operate a lock out relay or trip a circuit breaker. Voltage is

available from the ac power supply for tripping immediately upon ac power up. The capacitors charge time is approximately 8 seconds, but full wave bridge

rectif ier power from the ac line is available immediately for use. Capacitor charge current is limited to protect the control power system from a large current in

rush. This feature allows the use of many CTDA-6 units from the same control power voltage source without coordination problems. Additionally, the CTDA-6 is

self-protected from short circuit damage on the output . Nominal ac voltage is applied across terminals #8 and # 10. This voltage is full wave bridge rectif ied

and applied across the trip capacitors producing a steady state output trip voltage. The charge stored in theses capacitors is available across terminals #12

(positive) and # 14 (negative).Charging time: 8 seconds, 0 to 90% of nominal output voltage, 60 hertz. Operating temperature: -30 deg C to +60 deg C *

Electrical specif ications are 25 deg C.

Notice: Ac power must be applied continually for minimum of 2 hours before the CTDA-6 is capable of developing full charge on the output capacitors

with sustained interruption in ac input . The CTDA-6 capacitor trip device is not intended for ac dc power supply. The self-protecting feature of the unit

will severely limit the continuous output current and voltage.

Servicing:

1. Remove the AC control voltage.

2. Discharge the Capacitor trip device.

(A5-watt resistor of approximately 1000

ohms across Terminal #12 and #14

can be used for this purpose).

• The Automatic Charging Trip Device (CTDB-6) is used to trip circuit breakers and lock out relay when a battery or standby source is not available to

provide circuit breaker trip power. The CTDB-6 converts ac bus voltage to dc voltage and stores enough energy to operate a lock out relay or trip a circuit

breaker, often more than once. The CTDB-6, when fully charged, will maintain a charge for a minimum of 3 days after the ac power has been interrupted. In

normal operation, the batteries are trickle charged from the ac voltage source. Voltage is available from the ac power supply for tripping immediately upon

ac voltage power up. Capacitors do not need to be charged to have tripping voltage available on the output of the device, this is because the output is

automatically fed from the full wave bridge rectif ied ac signal or the charged capacitors, which ever is greater. Capacitor charge current is limited to

protect the control power system from a large current in-rush. this feature allows the use of many CTDB-6 units from the same control power voltage

source without coordination problems. Additionally, the CTDB-6 is self-protected from short circuit damage on the output . Batteries: 4 - rechargeable 1.2

volt Ni-Cad Cells * Electrical specif ications are at 25 deg C

Notice: Ac power must be applied continually for minimum of 2 hours before the CTDB-6 is capable of developing full charge on the capacitors with a

sustained interruption in ac input . It is highly recommended that batteries be fully charged before installing into the CTDB-6. The CTDB-6 is designed to

trickle charge the batteries to hold a charge indef initely, but the CTDB-6 trickle charge circuit can take as long as 48 hours to charge batteries that are

completely discharged. The CTDB-6 capacitor trip device is not intended for use as a dc power supply. The self protecting feature of the unit will severely

limit the continuous output current and voltage.

 Operation:

Nominal ac volts is applied across terminals #8 and #10. This voltage is full wave bridge rectif ied and applied across the

trip capacitors producing a steady state output trip voltage. The charge stored in these capacitor is available across

terminals # 12 (positive) and #14 (negative).

A battery operated oscillator circuit will maintain the charge on the capacitors for a minimum period of 3 days provided

that terminals #6 is connected to terminal #7 and the batteries are fully charged. Terminals #6 and #7 can be connected

with a normally open relay contact operated by the ac power supply so that the oscillator is activated upon power failure.

The batteries charge continuously when power applied to the circuit . Since batteries can take up to 48 hours to charge

while installed in the CTDB-6, we recommended that fully charged batteries be installed in the CTDB-6 unit prior to putting

the unit into service.

A push button and led indicator are used to determine if the CTDB-6 is operationally ready. When the button on the front

panel is pushed, the LED will illuminate if the Capacitor has minimum charge of 90 Vdc for the CTDB-6-120, and 200 Vdc for

the CTDB-6-240. The push button should only be pressed long enough to observe the illumination of the LED. The push

button and LED does not indicate the present of ac voltage.

Servicing:

Never remove the clear plastic cover without this discharge procedure:

1. Remove the 120 Vac control power.

2. Remove the jumper, or open the relay contact , across terminals #6 and #7.

3. Discharge the capacitor trip device. (A 5 watt resistor of approximately 500 ohms across Terminal #12 and #14 can be

used for this purpose)

Replace the 4 rechargeable 1.2 Volt Ni-Cad Cells according the battery manufactures recommended schedule. Never

attempt to change batteries without following the discharge produce. Battery terminals voltages are not isolated from the

control and trip power.

The CTDB-6 unit will recharge itself if terminals #6 and #7 remain shorted! Follow the discharge procedure prior to any

service or maintenance of the CTDB-6 unit or trip system.
