7SR224 Argus Description of Operation
3.2 Current Protection: Voltage Controlled OC (51V)
Each shaped overcurrent element 51-n Setting can be independently controlled by the level of measured
(control) input voltage.
For applied voltages above VCO Setting the 51-n element operates in accordance with its normal current setting
(see 3.1.3). For input Ph-Ph control voltages below VCO Setting a multiplier (51-n Multiplier) is applied to
reduce the 51-n pickup current setting.
51-n Multiplier is applied to each phase independently when its control phase-phase voltage falls below VCO
Setting. The voltage levels used for each phase over-current element are shown in the table below. Relays with a
Ph-N connection automatically calculate the correct Ph-Ph control voltage.
