1 PRODUCT OVERVIEW

1.1 General Description

The FP-5000 Protective Relay is a multi-function panel mounted,
microprocessor-based relay, designed for both ANSI and IEC
applications (Figure 1-1). It is a self-contained device which
operates from either AC or DC control power and provides true rms
sensing of each phase and ground current. Only one relay is
required per 3-phase circuit. Current, voltage, and operator-
selectable protective functions are integral to each device.
The FP-5000 is designed to protect the mains, ties or feeders at any
voltage level. It is primarily applied on medium voltage
distribution circuits up to 69 kV. The FP-5000 monitors several
primary and derived electrical parameters of the system.

1.2 Audience

The audience for this document is the Specifying or System
Engineer, the operating personnel, and the troubleshooting
personnel. This document will guide the system user to apply and
program the FP-5000. The document will provide operating
information, enabling the operating user to start and trip the breaker
associated with the FP-5000. The operator can refer to this
publication regarding any operation of the FP-5000. This document
will also provide information to program the FP-5000 and use the
troubleshooting features to collect and analyze historical, trending
and oscillographic data.
