3.2 Current Protection: Undercurrent (37)
Two rms measuring under-current elements are provided.
Each phase has an independent level detector and current-timing element. Gn 37-n Setting sets the pick-up
current. An output is given after elapse of the Gn 37-n Delay setting.
Operation can be selected for any phase or all phases using Gn 37-n Start Option
Operation of the under-current elements can be inhibited from:
Inhibit 37-n A binary or virtual input

3.3 Current Protection: Phase Overcurrent (50, 51)
All phase overcurrent elements have a common setting for the 50 elements and 51 elements to measure either
the fundamental frequency RMS or True RMS current:
True RMS current: 50 Measurement = RMS, 51 Measurement = RMS
Fundamental Frequency RMS current: 50 Measurement = Fundamental, 51 Measurement = Fundamental
3.3.1 Instantaneous Overcurrent Protection (50)
Two Instantaneous overcurrent elements are provided in the 7SR105 Rho Motor Protection Relay.
50-1, 50-2
Each instantaneous element (50-n) has independent settings. 50-n Setting for pick-up current and
50-n Delay follower time delay. The instantaneous elements have transient free operation.
Operation of the instantaneous overcurrent elements can be inhibited from:
Inhibit 50-n A binary or virtual input.
