Logic Diagram of the Unbalanced-Load Protection Function
Method of Measurement
The stage uses the negative-sequence current I
2
as a measurand. The negative-sequence current is calculated
from the measured 3-phase currents according to the defining equation of symmetrical components.
Warning Stage
If the negative-sequence current I
2
continuously exceeds the parameter Max. continuously perm. I2,
the
Warning
indication is given after expiry of a set time Warning delay.
Thermal Characteristic Stage
The machine manufacturers indicate the permissible unbalanced load using the following formula:
