“Something better than protective relays”

PROTECTION RELAY
Auxiliary boards

—— General
The hardware resources of the Pro-NX devices are easily upgradable by means of auxiliary modules.
Without additional modules the protection relays are equipped with a board with sixteen digital inputs (IN1) and
a board with eight output relays (OC1).
Various installation requirements can be adapted by the inclusion of:
• one OC2 board with eight output relays,
• one IN2 board with sixteen binary inputs,
• one CL board with six current loop converters,
• one RTD board with eight RTD inputs (Pt100 probes),
• one IRIG-B board.
• a AUX-IN external board
• a M-REF external board for 64F function

—— General
In order to increase the number of logic inputs the Pro_NX pro-
tection relays can be equipped with the IN2 module.
The input circuits are voltage-free; activation requires the appli-
cation of a power source, preferably the same auxiliary voltage
present in the switchboard.
The inputs are dimensioned for a wide range of operation and
does not require any hw and / or sw programming; the switching
threshold is 20 Vcc/15 Vac.
An AUX-IN external modules (see next page) allow the thresh-
olds setting for the binary inputs activation so that the command
voltage is comparable to the supply voltage.

—— Threshol setting
AUX-IN external modules, coupled with the Pro-NX protection
relay, allow the thresholds setting for the binary inputs activa-
tion.
The binary inputs switching threshold can be set during instal-
lation so that the command voltage is comparable to the supply
voltage.
The change on switching threshold of a binary input can be car-
ried out by means of dip switches (externally accessible) and
jumpers (accessible after removing the metal housing).

—— General setting
A 50 Hz or 60 Hz voltage is applied in the field circuit of the alter-
nator and a ground; in the absence of earth fault (RF = ∞) only a
few mA current is established in the circuit through the capaci-
ties between the field circuit and the earth. In case of earth fault,
the current increases in inverse proportion to the value of fault
resistance. With reference to the simplified diagram shown in
the drawing, by calculating the ratio UF/IRF is obtained by mea-
suring the insulation resistance to ground RF circuit excitation.
Using M-REF module, connected to the reserved pin on the
NVA100X-G (since 3.00 sw. version), Rotor earth fault protection
can be implemented.

—— General
In order to direct-measurement of temperature the Pro_NX re-
lays can be customized through external auxiliary RTD module.
Eight Pt100 inputs are acquired to provide thermal protective
functions.
The Pt100 sensors (‘Pt’ is the symbol for platinum) are the most
common devices used in industry have a nominal resistance of
100 ohms at 0 °C.
In order to compensate the additional resistance introduced by
the cables, three wires connection is recommended (example 1);

with only two terminals, probes you must use a shielded cable
with three conductors carrying the schematic example 2 (Pt100

However it is essential that the link between Terminal A and Ter-
minal B is made with cables of the same type (RL1 = RL2 = RL3).
Board address
For very short connections, two wires (Pt100 connected to RTD8
example 3) are permitted; the non-compensated resistance con-
nections resulting in an error proportional to the value of intro-
duced resistance.
The connection to the probes must be made with three conduc-
tors shielded cables and the screen should be earthed only at
one end, preferably on the relay; multiple connections may re-
sult in current circulation on the screen resulting noise on the
measure and are therefore to avoid.
It is recommended to position connections to the probe away
from power lines to avoid interference.
