Parameter Value Description
compensated
The stage uses compensated unbalanced values. This means an operational
current unbalance will be eliminated. This allows you to significantly
increase the sensitivity of the measurement.
Note the following: If the current I
c
is lower than the threshold Current
threshold CB open, the affected phase measuring elements are
rendered inactive by setting
I
unbal.,comp.
to 0 A. This condition is held for
250 ms after energizing has been detected in order to avoid a pickup as a
consequence of the charging process.
Siemens recommends using compensated unbalanced values. In case that
automatic compensation is applied, please consider the setting notes for
the operate delay.
non-compensated
The stage works with non-compensated unbalanced values. This means the
measurand may contain an existing operational current unbalance.
Parameter: Threshold
•
Default setting (_:13801:3) Threshold = 0.2 A
Set the parameter Threshold for the specific application.
When using compensated unbalanced values, very sensitive settings are possible. When using non-compen-
sated unbalanced values, the threshold must be higher than the maximum operational unbalanced current.
Parameter: Operate delay
•
Default setting (_:13801:6) Operate delay = 0.08 s (for the 1st stage)
Set the parameter Operate delay for the specific application.
NOTE
If the function has been set to automatic compensation and the stage works with compensated values, the
maximum permitted operate delay is 80 ms. If the operate delay is set to longer than 80 ms, the automatic
compensation might cause dropout of the picked-up stage. This risk does not exist when manual compen-
sation or non-compensated values are used.
