13.8.11.1  Introduction
Three phase undercurrent function (LCP3PTUC, 37) is designed for detecting loss of
load conditions.
Features:
• Phase wise pickup and trip signals
• Phase wise RMS current is available as service values
• Single definite time stage trip function
13.8.11.2  Principle of operation
Three phase undercurrent (LCP3PTUC, 37) is used for detecting sudden load loss
which is considered as fault condition. LCP3PTUC (37) starts when the current is less
than the set limit PU_37. It operates with definite time (DT) characteristics, that is, the
function operates after a predefined time tUC and resets when the load current restores.
The function contains a blocking functionality. It is possible to block the function
output, timer or the function itself, if desired.
