What does TRANSIT mean on Eaton Relays?
If your Eaton Relays display 'TRANSIT', it means the starting current was still above the transition threshold P5L5 when the transition timer P5L6 delay expired. This trip occurs only if setpoint P5L7 is set to TRN I or TRN T/C. Verify the correctness of transition settings. Also, check the motor and load for any causes of slower than expected acceleration.
What does GND FAULT mean on Eaton 66D2032G01 Relays and how to fix it?
A 'GND FAULT' on Eaton Relays signals an insulation failure leading to ground current leakage. This situation poses a danger. Immediately stop and isolate the motor to prevent further damage or more hazardous conditions. It is essential to get an expert evaluation of the motor's insulation condition.
What does PH UNBAL mean on Eaton 66D2032G01 and what should I check?
If you see 'PH UNBAL' on your Eaton Relays, it means there's a phase unbalance, possibly due to source voltage unbalance from a remote fault or single-phase loading, or single phasing of the motor. Check the voltage balance and the integrity of feeder connections. Also, inspect the fuses in the starter. Do not attempt to restart until the cause of single-phasing is found.
What should I do if my Eaton 66D2032G01 display WD TEMP MB TEMP LB TEMP AX TEMP?
If your Eaton Relays show 'WD TEMP MB TEMP LB TEMP AX TEMP', it means the temperature is at or above the alarm setpoint value. Check the specific value in Monitor mode to find the cause. Stator heat could be from overload or blocked cooling airflow. Bearing heat often means a failure is coming or there's not enough lubrication.
What does JAM mean on Eaton 66D2032G01 Relays and how to resolve it?
If 'JAM' appears on your Eaton Relays, it indicates a malfunction or jam in the driven process equipment. Ensure safety by locking out the motor starter and then inspect the process equipment to identify and resolve the jam.
What does INCOM mean on Eaton 66D2032G01 Relays?
If your Eaton Relays display 'INCOM', it indicates that a remote PowerNet or other data communications host requested a motor trip. You should determine the cause of the remote trip.
What does REMOTE mean on Eaton Relays?
If your Eaton Relays display 'REMOTE', it means that either or both of discrete input 1 and/or discrete input 2 are set to indicate remote trip contact input, and the input configured in this way was energized with 120 Vac. Determine the source of the remote contact operation requesting the trip.
What does DIF TRIP mean on Eaton 66D2032G01?
If your Eaton Relays display 'DIF TRIP', it means that either or both of discrete input 1 and/or discrete input 2 are set to indicate differential trip contact input from an external differential relay, and the input configured in this way was energized with 120 Vac. Because a differential relay operation indicates an electrical fault, shut down and lock out the motor. Get expert help in evaluating the condition of the motor and its repair needs. Do not try to restart without expert evaluation. After or during repair or replacement of the motor, check the fuses in the starter and replace any blown fuses.
What does T BYPASS mean on Eaton 66D2032G01?
If your Eaton Relays display 'T BYPASS', it means the MP-3000 tripped but continued to detect current flowing to the motor for over a second after the trip. This could be due to a stuck or jammed contactor or breaker, or because someone bypassed the trip contact, keeping the contactor energized after the trip. You should immediately open the upstream source breaker or loadbreak switch, lock it out, and then diagnose the problem or locate the bypass in the starter.
Why does my Eaton 66D2032G01 display LRC/I2T?
If your Eaton Relays display 'LRC/I2T', it means the thermal-model bucket has reached the trip level. Note that this trip cannot be reset until the thermal-model bucket has cooled below the user-set I2T alarm level. Determine if the motor is experiencing a larger than expected sustained loading. Check for unbalance in supply currents or voltages causing negative-sequence heating. Also, check for abnormal system voltage level and inspect for cooling air blockage or abnormal ambient conditions.
