5.2 Single Point Relay protection

Entellisys system provides Single Point Protection Relay functions in three optional packages:
the Voltage Relays package, the Frequency and Reverse Power Relays package and the High
Current Relay package.

The Voltage Relays package includes the following functions:

Undervoltage

Overvoltage

Phase Loss Protection

The Frequency and Reverse Power Relays package includes the following functions:

Under Frequency

Over Frequency

Reverse Power Protection

The High Current Relay package includes the following function:

High Current Protection

NOTE: Removing a relay package from a Messenger can cause any control scheme that
includes those relays to misoperate. See

Options on page 43

for more details.

These protection relay functions run in addition to the standard overcurrent protection
functions and are performed at the Entellisys CPU only. No protection relay functions are
performed locally at the Messengers.

Each relay has two sets of pickup and delay settings, with the exception of the High Current and
High Resistance GF. One set is for tripping the circuit breaker and the other is for activating an
alarm. Therefore, a user can set one threshold for a trip condition and the other threshold for an
alarm condition. It is possible to enable or disable each relay function individually; for example, it
is possible to enable a relay alarm function but disable the trip function.
