This setpoint is used to adjust the nominal mains voltage (phase to phase). This 
setpoint is also recalculated automatically when the phase-neutral nominal voltage 
MainsNomV is changed. 
This setpoint can be used if you know the phase-phase nominal voltage only. The 
controller will recalculate the phase-neutral nominal voltage automatically when 
this setpoint is changed. 
NOTE:  
The actual setpoint units and range depend on setting of the Power format in 
GenConfig. 
 
NOTE:  
If different voltage on gen-set and on Bus/Mains is required the following 
procedure is required:  
Both setpoints (GenNomVph-ph and MainsNomVph-ph) must be adjusted to the 
same values according to the value of actual generator nominal voltage. E.g. gen-
set nominal is 400 V but Bus/Mains nominal is 415 V.  
In this case both setpoints need to be adjusted to 400 V and setpoints of 
corresponding protections for Bus/Mains need to be set assymetrically.  
For 415 V on Bus/Mains it is typical to open MCB when voltage reaches 440 V or 
390 V. Since the setpoint is adjusted to 400 V corresponding protection setpoints 
need to be adjusted to Mains >V MP = 106% and Mains <V MP = 97 % (hence 
the desired values are reached).

PHASE-NEUTRAL, PHASE-PHASE [-] 
PHASE-NEUTRAL: The generator and mains/bus voltage protections are based 
on phase-neutral voltages and the phase-neutral nominal voltages are taken as 
100%. 
PHASE-PHASE: The generator and mains/bus voltage protections are based on 
phase-phase voltages and the phase-phase nominal voltages are taken as 100%. 
NOTE:  
Both options require different settings of protection levels to achieve identical 
results. 
 
EXAMPLE:  
Phase-nominal voltage is 231V, actual voltages are L1N = 231V, L2N = 231V, 
L3N = 219.5V => the L3N voltage is at 95% of the nominal. The same situation 
evaluated from phase-phase voltages gives following results: nominal phase-
phase voltage is 400V, measured voltages are L12 = 400V, L23 = 390V, L31 = 
390V => the L23 and L31 are at 97.5% of the nominal. It is obvious that if the 
situation is evaluated from phase-neutral voltages the tripping level must be 
adjusted to 95%, whereas the same situation evaluated from phase-phase 
voltages require tripping level adjusted to 97.5%.
