APPLICATION NOTES

UNDERVOLTAGE SETTING GUIDELINES

In most applications, undervoltage protection is not required to operate during system earth fault conditions. If this

is the case you should select phase-to-phase voltage measurement, as this quantity is less affected by single-

phase voltage dips due to earth faults.

The voltage threshold setting for the undervoltage protection should be set at some value below the voltage

excursions that may be expected under normal system operating conditions. This threshold is dependent on the

system in question but typical healthy system voltage excursions may be in the order of 10% of nominal value.

The same applies to the time setting. The required time delay is dependent on the time for which the system is able

to withstand a reduced voltage.

If motor loads are connected, then a typical time setting may be in the order of 0.5 seconds.
