1.1.5 Operation As safety depends on the HPB functioning correctly it is highly recommended that all safety functions of the HPB be periodically tested to ensure correct operation.
If there is evidence of physical damage, notify Ampcontrol immediately. Notify Ampcontrol immediately in the case of any discrepancies to the packing list. Keep a record of any claims and correspondence. Photographs are recommended.
The relay can perform an automatic “H.V. Insulation” test on the cable prior to the closure of the main contactor. The results of the test are displayed on the HPB Display Module (HDM-1) and can be remotely monitored.
The HPB Relay status display is one of the most useful features of the relay’s display system and should be viewed as the first step in fault finding. This display shows a list of 9 prompts in order of priority indicating what the HPB Relay requires to allow the output to close. The prompts are listed as follows:...
Table 2: HPB Error Status Indicator Display Message Description Error # 1 Indicates corruption in the Group 1 Settings (HPB Mem Error) Error # 2 Indicated corruption in the Group 2 Settings (HTU Mem Error) Error # 3 Is a combination of faults in both groups For details of Groups see Section 9.1, Parameter Groups.
If modifications of any form are made to the HPB, the equipment may no longer be fit for use. If any modifications or damage to the HPB is evident, do not use the equipment and contact Ampcontrol for advice.
Connections to the HPB Relay are made via a plug in base. The base is to be securely fastened to the enclosure in which it is being installed. The base is clearly labelled for ease of terminal location and identification.

4.3.6 Wiring Installation The connections to the HPB Relay consist of a mix of low and high voltage supplied and relay contact circuits. To reduce induction from high voltages, care needs to be taken in the layout of the wiring and the installation.
(digital input) MCI- Screen = Earth # The 0V is internally connected to the HPB Relay’s earth (Pin 7). The screen therefore must NOT be earthed at any other point. NOTE * The HPB Relay’s digital inputs could alternatively be run in a screened multicore cable (Separate cable for each HPB in multiple installations).
Page 16
4.3.8 High Voltage Circuits The “high” voltage circuits of the HPB are the 110 VAC supply (110V version Pins 30, 31 only) and the relay contacts. Apart from keeping these separate from other wiring to the relay, there are no special requirements.
If the remote stop function is not required the stop terminal must be bridged to the diode terminal or the HPB Relay will not energise. The status of the Remote “Stop” input is displayed “HTU: Online Run” or “HTU: Online Stp” and can be viewed on the HDM Module’s “Pilot and HTU information” page (level 2, position 1).
HDM Remote Display Module (level 9, position 2). 5.4 Receiver Sensitivity The HPB allows the sensitivity of the HTU receiver to be adjusted to suit different installations. For installations where multiple HPB’s are located close to each other the sensitivity can be reduces to prevent crosstalk between the pilot signals.
When the leakage reaches 100% for the selected time delay a trip occurs. For the HPB 6.6kV and the HPB 22kV 200mA EL, the trip level is adjustable in 100mA increments over the range 200mA-1000mA and for the standard HPB 22kV the trip level is selectable in 250mA increments over the range 500mA-2500mA.
DC signal and communications is achieved by a high frequency AC signal. The HPB Relay can be configured to operate in either Resistor or HTU Mode. The mode is selected in “Pilot Type”, (level 8, position 1) and defines the type of termination unit to be connected between the pilot and earth at the machine end of the trailing cable being protected by the HPB Relay.

MCR Relay. In “Res” mode all of the relay settings are stored in the HPB Relay. If a load is moved to a different outlet (or substation) then the HPB Relay’s settings need to be checked and updated if necessary.
Page 22
HPBB012 Version 9 – March/2020 When an Earth Continuity trip occurs the HPB Relay de-energises the MCR Relay. The “EC” LED on the display module is illuminated and the open collector output on the relay is switched on to provide remote monitoring if required.
The current range is selectable in 4 Amp increments between 60 and 116 Amps. The current multiplier is selectable at 1/8, 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, and 4 times for the HPB 6.6kV and at 1/4, 1/2, 1, 2, 4, and 8 times for the HPB 22kV.
The HPB Relay can be programmed so that a short circuit trip will operate either the “CBR” relay or the “MCR” Relay. This can be achieved by selecting the required relay at the “SC Relay” selection in the non-volatile memory (See Section 9, User Adjustable Settings).
A main contactor fail trip causes the CBR Relay to de-energise, which trips the circuit breaker. An internal battery backed indication flag in the HPB Relay is also tripped. An LED on the front panel of the HPB Relay begins to flash.
These settings are stored, retrieved to/from the memory in the HPB Relay or the memory in the HTU-1 Termination Unit, depending on the “Pilot Mode” setting. If the Resistor Pilot Mode is selected the HPB Relay reads and writes to and from the relay’s internal memory for the group 2 settings.
Momentarily operate the lock input. The display will show a confirming message, then return to the viewing level. If the up or down keys are operated during this procedure the HPB Relay aborts the modifying sequence. When changes have been made to the stored values, the old value and the new value are stored in the event log.
25 seconds to complete due to the charging of the cable capacitance. If the result of this test is satisfactory the HPB Relay goes into the run mode and the MCR Relay picks up.
HPBB012 Version 9 – March/2020 11 EVENT LOG A real time clock/calendar is included in the HPB Relay. This combines with the non-volatile memory to provide data logging. This log sequentially records the time, date and details of the HPB Relay’s operations.

If the battery voltage is low the time will zero and the date will reset to 1 January on power up. If the battery is flat or faulty the relay is likely to trip on “main contactor fail” on power up. Uncontrolled Copy - Refer to Ampcontrol Website for Latest Version Page 31 of 61...

To carry out tests on a faulty earth continuity circuit adopt the following procedures: Open Circuit Pilot Check the voltage between the pilot and earth at the HPB Relay (Pins 6 and 7). The reading should be 30VDC. To determine the location of the fault continue the above test along the pilot until no reading is obtained.
