5.6 Power supply A marked and easily accessible current limiting switch has to be arranged in the vicinity of the device for turning off the power supply. Fusing should be 10 Amps or less and must be rated for the available voltage and fault current. 5.7 Relays When the device is switched off the relay contacts are de-energized, but dangerous voltages may be present.
Active inputs (no external power supply required) Example with meter pulse and status inputs Technical data acc. EN62053-31, class B ≤ 15 V Open circuit voltage Short circuit current < 15 mA =800Ω ≥ 2 mA Current at R 5.9 Digital outputs The device has two standard digital outputs for which an external 12 / 24 VDC power supply is required.
5.10 Analog outputs Analog outputs are available for devices with corresponding I/O extensions only. See nameplate. Analog outputs may be remote controlled. Connection to an analog input card of a PLC or a control system The device is an isolated measurement device. The module outputs are galvanically connected, but the modules isolated from each other.
5.12 Fault current detection Each fault current module provides two channels for monitoring differential or fault currents in earthed AC current systems. In any case measurement has to be performed via suitable current transformers, a direct measurement is not possible. The module is not suited for monitoring operating currents of normally live conductors (L1, L2, L3, N).
Page 26
Example: Fault current monitoring in a TNS system Hints (1) If the current transfomers for the fault current detection needs to be grounded on the secondary side this has to be done via the COM connector. (2) Note that all conductors have to cross the residual current transformer in the same direction.
5.13 Uninterruptible power supply (UPS) battery pack for the uninterruptible power supply is supplied separately. Please note that compared to the storage temperature range of the base unit the storage temperature range of the battery pack is restricted. Ensure that devices with uninterruptible power supply are used in an environment in accordance with the specification.
5.14 GPS time synchronization The optional GPS connection module serves for connecting a GPS receiver as a very accurate time synchronization source for the measurement device. The GPS receiver, available as an accessory, is used as outdoor antenna to process data from multiple GPS satellites simultaneously. GPS receiver Only use the receiver Garmin GPS 16x-LVS (article no.
Page 29
Connecting the GPS receiver Never connect the RJ45 connector of the connecting cable directly to a network device such as a router or switch. These devices could be damaged. The GPS receiver is plugged directly into the GPS connection module. The connection cable has a length of 5 m.
6. Commissioning Before commissioning you have to check if the connection data of the device match the data of the plant (see nameplates). If so, you can start to put the device into operation by switching on the power supply and the measurement inputs.
6.2 Parametrization of the device functionality A full parameterization of all functions of the device is possible directly at the device (for devices with display only) or via web browser. See: Configuration (7.5) 6.3 Installation check The correct connection of the current and voltage inputs can be checked in two ways. a) Sense of rotation check: Using the sequence of the current and voltage phasors the sense of rotation is determined and compared to the configured one.
Page 32
b) Phasor verification: The phasor diagram shows a technical visualization of the current and voltage phasors, using a counter-clockwise rotation, independent of the real sense of rotation. The diagram is always built basing on the voltage of the reference channel (direction 3 o’clock) Correct installation (expectation) •...
Ethernet installation 6.4.1 Settings Before devices can be connected to an existing Ethernet network, you have to ensure that they will not disturb the normal network service. The rule is: None of the devices to connect is allowed to have the same IP address than another device already installed The device can be equipped with multiple Ethernet interfaces whose network settings can be configured independently.
Page 34
For a direct communication between device and PC both devices need to be in the same network when the subnet mask is applied: Example 1 decimal binary IP address 192.168. 1.101 11000000 10101000 00000001 01100101 Subnet mask 255.255.255.224 11111111 11111111 11111111 11100000 variable range xxxxx...
Time synchronization via NTP protocol For the time synchronization of devices via Ethernet NTP (Network Time Protocol) is the standard. Corresponding time servers are used in computer networks, but are also available for free via Internet. Using NTP it's possible to hold all devices on a common time base. Two different NTP servers may be defined.
6.4.3 Connection of the IEC61850 interface The RJ45 sockets X1 and X2 serve for direct connecting Ethernet cables. Both ports are equivalent and internally connected via a switch. Interface: RJ45 sockets, Ethernet 100BaseTX Mode: 10/100 MBit/s, full / half duplex, Auto-negotiation ...
6.4.6 Resetting the communication settings If the communication settings of the Standard interface are no longer known, they can be reset to the default settings by pressing the sunk-in reset button (located below the operating LED) for at least 3s. During the reset the operating LED flashes red.
6.6 Protection against device data changing Configuration or measurement data stored in the device may be modified via either service or settings menu. To protect these data a security system may be activated (default: not activated). If the security system is active the user hat to enter a password before executing protected functions. Subsequent to a successful password input the access remains open until the user leaves the settings / service menu or an input timeout occurs.

Via WEB-GUI all device settings can be performed as via the local GUI. Possibly modifications needs to be saved in the device, before all parameters have been set. In such a case the following message appears: If this request is not confirmed unsaved modifications of the present device configuration may get lost. Loading / saving configuration files The user can save the present device configuration on a storage media and reload it from there.
7.6 Alarming The alarming concept is very flexible. Depending on the user requirements simple or more advanced monitoring tasks may be realized. The most important objects are limit values on base quantities, the monitoring of fault-current, monitoring functions and the summary alarm. 7.6.1 Limit values on base quantities Using limit values either the exceeding of a given value (upper limit) or the fall below a given value (lower limit)
7.6.2 Monitoring fault-currents Each (optional) fault current module provides two channels for monitoring residual or fault current. For each of the channels an alarm and a prewarning limit can be defined, which can be used as follows: … Activating a summary alarm when the alarm limit is violated or a breakage occurs (2mA input only) …...
7.6.3 Monitoring functions By means of monitoring functions the user can define an extended condition monitoring, e.g. for triggering an over-current alarm, if one of the phase currents exceeds a certain limit value. The states of all monitoring functions …will be shown in the alarm list (“Events” via main menu) …build a summary alarm state Logic inputs Up to three states of limit values, failure-current monitoring, logic inputs or other monitoring functions.
7.6.4 Summary alarm The summary alarm combines the states of all monitoring functions MFx to a superior alarm-state of the overall unit. For each monitoring function you may select if it is used for building the summary alarm state. If at least one of the used functions is in the alarm state, the summary alarm is also in the alarm state. If an optional failure-current monitoring is present, the detection of an alarm state or a breakage of the measurement line (2mA inputs only) activates directly the summary alarm.
7.7 Data recording The optional data logger provides long-term recordings of measurement progressions and events. The recording is performed in endless mode (oldest data will be deleted, as soon as the associated memory is full). Depending on the version ordered, the following data groups are available: Group Data type Request...

The selection of the mean-value quantity to display can be performed via choosing the corresponding register. Three different kind of displays are supported: • Daily profile: Hourly mean-values will be shown, independently of the real averaging time • Weekly profile •...
Page 51
Displaying the chronology of meter contents The chronology of meters is available via the menu Energy and is divided in two groups: • Pre-defined meters • User-defined meters From the difference of two successive meter readings the energy consumption for the dedicated time range can be determined.
Data export as CSV file the time range of the data to export can be selected. A CSV (Comma separated value) file will be generated. This can be imported als a text file to Excel, with comma as a separator. The same file contains data for all quantities of the respective group.
7.7.3 Disturbance recorder Configuration of the events to record The user can set the threshold limits for the monitoring of voltage dips, voltage swells and voltage interruptions. Display of disturbance recordings (locally) Recorded disturbances are available in the form of a logbook. Each detected disturbance is entered into the disturbance recorder list with the time of its occurrence.

7.8 Timeouts Devices with display are designed for displaying measurements. So, any other procedure will be terminated after a certain time without user interaction and the last active measurement image will be shown again. Menu timeout A menu timeout takes effect after 2 min. without changing the present menu selection. It doesn’t matter if the currently displayed menu is the main menu or a sub-menu: The menu is closed and the last active measurement image is displayed again.

Reactive power Most of the loads consume a combination of ohmic and inductive current from the power system. Reactive power arises by means of the inductive load. But the number of non-linear loads, such as RPM regulated drives, rectifiers, thyristor controlled systems or fluorescent lamps, is increasing. They cause non- sinusoidal AC currents, which may be represented as a sum of harmonics.
