ABB RELION RET670 - Pickup Sensitivity

Inverse time delay characteristic of the NS2PTOC (46I2) function is represented in the
equation

I t K=
, where the K1 setting is adjustable over the range of 1 – 99 seconds.
A typical inverse time overcurrent curve is shown in Figure 293.

The example in figure 293 indicates that the protection function has a set minimum trip
time t1Min of 5 sec. The setting t1Min is freely settable and is used as a security
measure. This minimum setting assures appropriate coordination with for example line
protections. It is also possible to set the upper time limit, t1Max.

The trip pickup levels Current I2-1> and I2-2> of NS2PTOC (46I2) are freely settable
over a range of 3 to 500 % of rated generator current IBase. The wide range of pickup
setting is required in order to be able to protect generators of different types and sizes.
After pickup, a certain hysteresis is used before resetting pickup levels. For both steps
the reset ratio is 0.97.
