2.3.3. Residual voltage protection U
0
>, U
0
>> (59N)
The residual voltage unit comprises two separately adjustable
residual voltage stages (stage U
0
> and U
0
>>).
The undervoltage unit measures the fundamental frequency
component of the residual voltage, which means that the
harmonics will not cause a trip. The protection stages operate
with definite time characteristics.
The relay starts, if the actual value for the residual voltage
exceeds the setting value. If the overvoltage situation continues
after the start time has elapsed, the relay trips.
The residual voltage is measured either with a residual voltage
transformer or calculated from the phase voltages according to
the selected protection mode:
•
Phase: The residual voltage is calculated from the phase
voltages and therefore a separate residual voltage
transformer is not needed. The setting values are relative to
the voltage VT
secondary
defined at configuration.
•
Line+U
0
: The residual voltage is measured with an broken-
delta transformer. The setting values are relative to the
voltage VT
0secondary
defined at configuration.
•
Line: The residual voltage functions are not in use.
