Fault Indication LEDs

VIP relays have fault indication

LEDs. They flash to indicate a fault,

After a trip, the fault indication

LEDs are powered by the battery

Fault indication by the LEDs can

be stopped:

note In custom mode, the protection set

points may not be assigned to the

Mitop trip unit output.

In this case, the fault indication

LED may be active, without being

operation according to the

power supply mode

(VIP400)

The VIP400 is a stand- alone pro-

tection relay powered by its cur-

rent sensors.

When current is present in the

medium- voltage (MV) network,

the protections and the display

work and it is possible to enter set-

tings and view measurements.

The current in the MV network on

which the VIP operates is called

the ’pick- up current’.

When no current is flowing through

the circuit breaker (for example cir-

cuit breaker open), or when the

current in the MV network is too

low, the VIP is off and nothing

appears on its display.

If current appears, the protection

functions are activated and trip the

circuit breaker - or not - accor-

ding to their settings.

The additional time taken by the

VIP to start when current appears

is called the ’pick- up time’.

More information on the value of

the pick- up current and the pick-

up time are available in the VIP

power supply. It is powered both

autonomously by its sensors and

by the auxiliary power supply.

Like for the VIP400, the

self- powered supply allow the

protection functions to work even if

the auxiliary power supply fails.

The auxiliary power supply is used

to power functions that do not

depend on the current being

present in the MV network. These

functions are marked in the

function table (Please consult the

reference NRJED311207EN). The

auxiliary power supply must be

present in order them to work.

integral battery The VIP has an integral battery. It

is used to:

Hactivate the user- machine

interface in order to enter settings

when the VIP is not supplied with

power

Hilluminate the fault indication

LEDs when the VIP is no longer

supplied with power after giving

theopening order to the circuit

breaker

Hpower the internal calendar

When the VIP is not supplied with

power:

Pressing and holding down the

key will activate battery- powered

operation of the user- machine

interface. It is then possible to

access the menus in order to enter

settings.

In this case, the display

turns off automatically after 3

minutes of inactivity on the key-

pad.

HThe protection functions are

activated automatically if the cur-

rent reappears.

The integral battery plays no part

in operating the protection func-

tions. The protection functions

work even when there is no bat-

tery.

NOTE :

Hin battery operation mode, the

VIP processor runs with a reduced

clock frequency to ensure the bat-

tery life is maintained. As a result,

theuser-machineinterfacemay

be slower to react.

Hduring a setting operation with

the VIP powered by its internal

battery alone, the clock display is

not refreshed on screen. However

the internal clock increments nor-

mally.

pocket battery module The pocket battery module is an

accessory that can be connected

to the front panel of VIP relays. It

contains a battery that can be

used to power the VIP in order to:

frequency The network frequency (50 Hz or

60 Hz) is a parameter that must be

known for operation of the VIP40

and VIP45 signal processing algo-

rithms.

They therefore have an automatic

frequency recognition system.

The recognized value

(50Hzor60Hz)is stored and the

VIP works permanently with this

value.

This stored value will be used each

time the VIP starts

For the VIP to recognize the net-

work frequency and store it, it has

to detect a current on phase 1 for

a minimum period of 5 seconds in

the range 50 Hz +/- 2 Hz or 60

Hz +/- 2 Hz.

This detection happens when

the VIP starts.

earth current (ANSI

50N- 51N) Earth current maximum protection

enables overcurrents due to

phase- to- earth faults to be

detected. It makes use of the mea-

surement of the earth current’s

fundamental component.

2 independent thresholds (Io>

and Io>>)

Hthe lower threshold (Io>)can

be set to either a definite time (DT)

or an inverse time (IDMT) curve,

with the choice of standardised

curve (IEC, IEEE, RI) and the pos-

sibility of activating an inverse time

duration.

Hthe upper threshold (Io>>) has

only a definite time (DT) setting.

The minimum setting gives instan-

taneous operation (ANSI 50 func-

tion).

thermal overload protection

(ANSI 49RMS) This protection enables cables and

the measurement of absorbed cur-

rent.

This protection uses a thermal

model based on current measure-

ments to evaluate temperature

rise. The current used for this pro-

tection is a 3- phase RMS current

that takes into account up to 13th

order harmonics.

This protection has 2 settings:

current, which corresponds to the

maximum thermal withstand of the

equipment to be protected (this

responds to a temperature rise of

100%)

Flair 22D/23DV can be connected

to a voltage presence indicating

system (VPIS) provided with a vol-

tage output (VPIS- VO). In this

case, for greater reliability, fault

detection is confirmed by voltage

absence without taking into

account the current.

Flair 23DV has to be supplied

from 24Vdc to 48 Vdc for a perma-

nent display operating and for the

outdoor lamp supply.(With a single

voltage detection relay

The VD23 is a voltage presence

and absence detection relay.

It uses the VPIS V2- V0 as sensor,

and operates with a 24 or 48 Vdc

external power supply.

operation

Calibration:

At power up, the VD23 automati-

cally detects voltage presence and

the network frequency, and then

performs self- calibration.

Measuring mode:

3 seconds after calibration, the

VD23 displays, by scrolling, the

percentages of the nominal

voltage detected on each phase

Detection of Voltage presence:

When the voltage percentage

becomes greater than the set thre-

shold for all the configured

phases, then the VD23 lights the

voltage presence indicator and

activates (or releases in inverted

mode) relay R1.

Detection of Voltage absence:

When the voltage percentage

becomes less than the set thre-

shold for all the configured

phases, then the VD23 lights the

voltage absence indicator and

activates (or releases in inverted

mode) relay R2.
