SEL-749M Relay Instruction Manual Date Code 20080918
Protection and Logic Functions
Basic Motor Protection
Phase current transformers having 150:5 ratios are selected for the
application. The SEL-749M settings for the application are shown
below.
Current Transformer Ratio (CTR) = 150/5 = 30
Full Load Amps (FLA) = 101 A primary
Service Factor (SF) = 1.15
Curve Number (CURVE) = 14
See Example 4.3 for the equation to calculate the RTC, use
TD = 1
LRA = 6
LRTHOT = Curve# • 2.08
RTC = 81 minutes
COOLTIME = 243 minutes
