51NP pickup 0.500 - 16.000 A secondary (5 A nominal channel IN
current input)
0.100 - 3.200 A secondary (1 A nominal channel IN
current input)
0.005 - 0.160 A secondary (0.05 A nominal channel IN
current input)
51NC curve type U1 - U5 (US curves) see Figure 9.1 - Figure 9.10

below
Note: If SELOGIC Control Equation torque control setting 51NTC is set directly to logical 0 (i.e.,
51NTC = 0), then corresponding neutral ground time-overcurrent element 51NT is
defeated and nonoperational, regardless of any other setting.
See Section 9: Setting the Relay for additional time-overcurrent element setting information.
Accuracy
Pickup: ±0.05 A secondary and ±3% of setting (5 A nominal channel IN current input)
±0.01 A secondary and ±3% of setting (1 A nominal channel IN current input)
±1 mA secondary and ±5% of setting (0.05 A nominal channel IN current input)
Curve Timing: ±1.50 cycles and ±4% of curve time for currents between (and including) 2 and
30 multiples of pickup
Residual Ground Time-Overcurrent Element
To understand the operation of Figure 3.19, follow the explanation given for Figure 3.14 in the
preceding Phase Time-Overcurrent Elements subsection, substituting residual ground current I
