5.9 PHASE LOSS—CURRENT
OPI Menu: Setup | Protection | Phase Loss (I)
Phase loss is a severe form of unbalance. When phase
loss occurs, negative-sequence current (I
2
) is equal to
positive-sequence current (I
1
) and current unbalance is
100% or 1.00 pu. The phase-loss algorithm considers I
2
/I
1
from 0.90 to 1.00 to be a phase loss. This occurs when
one phase is open resulting in two current vectors at 180°.
Set the phase-loss-trip delay lower than the unbalance trip
delay to avoid an unbalance trip in the event of a phase
loss.
NOTE: An open CT will result in I
2
/I
1
=0.5 because the
phase angle between the other two phases remain at 120°.
This is not considered a phase loss.

5.10 PHASE REVERSE—CURRENT
OPI Menu: Setup | Protection | Phase Rev (I)
If the current phase sequence is B-A-C, the magnitude
of negative-sequence current will be larger than the
magnitude of positive-sequence current.

5.11 UNDERCURRENT
OPI Menu: Setup | Protection | Undercurrent
Undercurrent protection is loss-of-load protection and
is active when the motor is in the Run mode. A trip or
alarm is initiated if current remains below the set point for
the programmed delay.

5.13 VOLTAGE UNBALANCE
OPI Menu: Setup | Protection | Unbalance (V)
Positive-sequence voltage (V
1
) and negative-sequence
voltage (V
2
) are used to determine voltage unbalance
(V
2
/V
1
). The unbalance display range is 0.00 to 1.00
where 1.00 is 100% unbalance—a single-phase condition.
A negative unbalance will be indicated if voltage inputs
are connected B-A-C.

OPI Menu: Setup | Protection | Phase Loss (V)
Phase loss is a severe form of unbalance. When phase
loss occurs, negative-sequence voltage (V

loss trip delay lower than the unbalance trip delay to
avoid an unbalance trip in the event of a phase loss.
