3.4. Current transformer supervision
The relay supervise the external wiring between the relay
terminals and current transformers (CT) and the CT
themselves. Furthermore, this is a safety function as well, since
an open secondary of a CT, causes dangerous voltages.
The CT supervisor function measures phase currents. If one of
the three phase currents drops below I
MIN
< setting, while
another phase current is exceeding the I
MAX
> setting, the
function will issue an alarm after the operation delay has
elapsed.
