5.4 PROTECTION ELEMENTS 5 SETTINGS
Table 5–63: GENERATOR UNBALANCE ELEMENT SETTINGS
• Gen Unbal Function: This setting allows enabling or disabling the element.
• Gen Unbal Inom: This setting is the rated full load current of the machine.
• Gen Unbal Stg1 Pkp: This setting defines the pickup of the stage 1 element expressed as a percentage of the
nominal current as specified by GEN UNBAL INOM setting. It is typically set at the maximum continuous negative
sequence current rating of the machine.
• Gen Unbal Stg1 K: This setting is the negative sequence capability constant. This value is normally provided by the
generator manufacturer.
• Gen Unbal Stg1 Tmin: This is the minimum operate time of the element.
• Gen Unbal Stg1 Tmax: This is the maximum operate time of the element. This setting can be applied to limit the
maximum tripping time.
• Gen Unbal Stg1 K-Rst: This setting defines the linear reset rate of the stage. This feature provides a thermal memory
of previous unbalance conditions.
• Gen Unbal Stg2 Pkp: This setting defines the pickup of the stage 2 element expressed as a percentage of the
nominal current as specified by GEN UNBAL INOM setting.
• Gen Unbal Stg2 Delay: This is the minimum operate time of the stage 2 element.
