5.3.3.2 BREAKER MAINTENANCE
To consider used breakers, the relay allows to set initial I
2
t values as well as an initial number of operations, in order to take
into account previous breaker operations, as well as operations produced during testing. Breaker maintenance parameters
can be set in the breaker maintenance menu.
BREAKER MAINTENANCE (Setpoint > System Setup > Breaker > Breaker Maintenance)
Table 5–23: BREAKER MAINTENANCE SETTINGS
In this group of settings, the start values of the breaker Counters can be set.
These Counters allow the breaker Maintenance. They are used to accumulate the breaker aging produced by a trip or a
breaker opening. In order to incorporate the breaker’s history, in case of used breakers, the system allows assigning an
initial value to accumulated amperes, and to the number of opening and closing operations.
To supervise breaker aging, Σ(KI)
2
t accumulated values are calculated and stored for each phase in each opening. If the
rated current is not exceeded, as in the case of a manual opening command, without fault current, the relay uses the rated
current instead of the measured value.
(KI)
2
t value is accumulated and maintained in independent Counters for each phase. Counters can be accessed through
the local HMI as well as through the EnerVista 650 Setup software. The element incorporates a setting to select the
integration time ((KI)
2
t Integ. Time).
The signals associated to the opened or closed status of the breaker can be monitored at “Actual > Status > Breaker”
Table 5–24: BREAKER STATUS
The signals associated to breaker maintenance can be monitored at “Actual > Status > Records Status > Breaker
Maintenance”, and they are as follows:
