Equation 84-26. 50-1 Pickup
Set for three-phase mode so that any phase exceeding the setting will pick up the element. Set the
Pickup setting to 27.17 Secondary A. Typically, CT circuit 1 is used because it is on the feed side of the
motor. See Figure 84-46.

Instantaneous Overcurrent (50-2) - Ground Fault Protection
The system is solidly grounded so that a ground fault draws current in the magnitude of a three-phase
fault per IEEE C37.96-2000, IEEE Guide for AC Motor Protection. To determine the three-phase fault
current, consider that the motor subtransient reactance of 0.368 is the limiting impedance. The pickup
setting is calculated using Equation 84-27. A pickup setting of 1/3 of the instantaneous three-phase fault
current is recommended per IEEE C37.96-2000, IEEE Guide for AC Motor Protection. During starting, CT
saturation can produce false residual currents, so we use the running mode current FLA. The circuit CT
ratio (CTR) is 60.
