The Type TSG 912 relay supervises the trip circuit of circuit breaker and
it activates delayed alarm and visual indication in the event of trip cir-
cuit failure or mechanism malfunction. The relays are available for all
kinds of circuit breakers and for any combination of standard trip and
alarm voltages.
Two limiting resistors are supplied separately with the relay type
TSG 912 .. X .. If the relay is accidentally short circuited, they provide
current limitation which will not result in trip coil operation. These resi-
stors are to be mounted in the trip circuit, outside the relay so that strin-
gent safety requirements are maintained.
Limiting resistors are mounted inside the relay type TSG 912 .. N .. in
applications where less stringent safety requirements may be observed.
For 220 V, only relays with external resistors will be delivered. The relay
TSG 912 is deliverde with LED to indicate the alarm status.
DETECTED FAILURES
After a 400 ms delay, the relay activates an alarm in the event of the fol-
lowing failures:
- Trip voltage failure
- Trip coil interruption
- Trip circuit wiring interruption Winding 3-2 of the monitoring relay detects any failure in the trip circuit
- Circuit breaker malfunction and the relay releases. Relay C also releases after 400 ms, resulting in ac-
tivation of the alarm.

Under healthy conditions and with the circuit breaker closed, the moni-
toring relay AB is attracted via winding 3-2 (winding 4-1 is disconnec-
ted by the NC auxiliary contact of the circuit breaker). Alarm relay C is
attracted by the contact of relay AB.
