  • Page 4: Introduction

    1. Introduction The application of powerful microprocessors opens a new chapter for power system protective relaying. The digital processing of measured values and the ability to perform complex arithmetic and logic operations, give digital protection relays significant performance and flexibility improvements over their traditional analogue counterparts.
  • Page 5: Application

    2. Application The MPR 3E5 is a universal digital adjustable motor protection relay. It serves as overload, overcurrent, negative sequence (unbalance), and general protection for synchronous and induction machines. With a large selection of adjustment possibilities, the MPR 3E5 is suitable for almost any type of machine.

  • Page 7: Analogue Input Circuits

    4.1.1 Analogue input circuits The constantly monitored measuring values are galvanically decoupled, filtered and finally fed to the analogue/digital converter. The protection unit receives these analogue input signals of the phase currents I1, I2, I3 and Earth fault Ie, via separate input transformers. 4.1.2 Output relays The MPR 3E5 has three output relays, with single or dual pole change-over contacts as detailed in the previous diagram and summarised below:...

    The measured and set values, and recorded fault data, are shown alphanumerically on the display. The meaning of the displayed values is easily interpreted from the LED indicators on the front panel. Because of the large adjustment possibilities the data on the MPR3E5 is split into a number of related groups Mode 1 Display.

  • Page 12: Working Principles

    6. Working principles 6.1 Analogue circuits The incoming currents and voltages from the external transformers are converted to internal signals in proportion to the current and voltage, via the internal input transducers and shunt resistors. The noise signals caused by inductive and capacitive coupling are suppressed by an analogue RC filter circuit.

  • Page 15: Setting Procedure

    7.3 Setting procedure In the following sections the setting of all relay parameters is described in detail: 7.3.1. t6x Setting This setting specifies the time the relay will take to trip at 6 times FLC, with respect to the cold characteristic curve, and therefore determines the basic thermal characteristic.
  • Page 16: Hot/Cold Ratio Setting

    Thermal Pre-Alarm level, the output alarm Relay will operate. 7.3.7. Number of Starts per Hour. The number of starts per hour the motor will make can be limited by the MPR3E5. The starting energy is integrated on a time-basis separately from the thermal overload model. This parameter can also be set to off in which case the number of starts is unlimited.
  • Page 17: Earth Fault Trip Time

    7.3.10. Earth Fault trip Time This setting determines the trip time following the measured earth fault current exceeding the pickup value. A setting of 0.0 indicates instantaneous operation, i.e. 30 - 50mS at twice times setting. 7.3.11. Unbalance Current This setting determines the pick-up level of the unbalance Current as a percentage of FLC before a Trip occurs.
  • Page 18: Undercurrent Setting

    7.3.12. Undercurrent Setting This setting determines the pickup upon an undercurrent, this is generally used to protect against an unloaded machine, e.g. Drive belt failure. A setting of OFF here will disable the feature. 7.3.13. Undercurrent Time This sets a time between the unit registering an undercurrent level and the actual tripping of the unit. 7.3.14.
  • Page 19: Matrix Setting

    7.4 Matrix Setting 7.4.1 Trip Relay Matrix, Tnnn This setting, range 000 to 255, sets the faults that are to operate the trip output relay. The setting also allows the Trip Relay to be either energised or de-energised upon activating. A Thermal Overload trip will always operate i.e.
  • Page 20: Alarm Relay Matrix, Annn

    7.4.3 Alarm Relay Matrix, Annn This setting range, 000 to 255, sets the faults that will cause the Alarm Relay to be either energised or de-energised upon activating. Example Only Thermal Pre-Alarm, Earth Fault Alarm and Low Set Alarm are required and the relay is to de- energise upon Alarm.

    DIP switch No1 on the 8 way internal switch-group selects the CT Secondary current of the Earth Fault input for a core balance application only i.e. when the matrix Ennn is set at E129 and above. See Section 4.13. For example, if the core balance CT Secondary is 1A and is used with a 5A Earth Fault rated relay, then the DIP Switch No 1 would be left at its normal setting of "OFF".

Note that Thermal overload is always enabled irrespective of this fault inhibit setting. - Contactor Applications In order to avoid the possibility of a contactor attempting to break a short-circuit current in excess of its rating when this is the duty of the short circuit protective device e.g.

    7.5. DIP Switch Settings. An internal 10 way DIP switch is located behind the front panel. The factory pre-set values of this switch should not normally be changed. It can be accessed by withdrawing the relay from its case. Using a suitable tool (Medium Duty Hook/Spike -RS Stock No 549-533) the switches can be moved to carry out the following functions:- DIP switch Action...
