Earth Leakage Relays

Earth leakage relays play two very important roles in electrical systems – protection of human beings from electrocution and safety from fire. Leakage current though very small in magnitude, can wreak havoc in the installations. ‘Short Circuit’ is commonly attributed as the cause of electrical fires but actually in majority of the cases, it is the leakage current which is the cause of electrical fires. Earth leakage relays usually in conjunction with toroid CTs (also known as CBCTs) perform the function of detecting these leakage currents and tripping the circuits before any mishap takes place.

Phase Monitoring Relays

Electronic and electrical devices are designed to operate at a certain voltage range and the device is likely to get damaged if the voltage is above or below that range. Under voltage is the decrease in AC RMS voltage at power frequency to less than 90% of the rated voltage whereas over voltage is the increase in +10% range of the rated voltage. Under voltage may cause the device to stop working or it may cause damage to motors if it is excessive. Due to over voltage electrical devices may stop working, or may even burst into flames.

Phase reversal is the condition in which two of the three phases (RYB) of supply line reverses. Switching any two of the three phases will cause the motor to turn in wrong direction which may cause major collateral damage. Single phasing is a condition in three-phase supply in which supply to one of the phase is cut-off. It is caused by single phase protection devices such as fuses and circuit breakers. It may cause excessive noise and vibration in motor..

  • · Last fault memory for UV, OV, Single Phasing and Phase Reversal

Undervoltage & Overvoltage Relays

Electronic and electrical devices are designed to operate at a certain voltage range and the device is likely to get damaged if the voltage is above or below that range. Under voltage is the decrease in AC RMS voltage at power frequency to less than 90% of the rated voltage whereas over voltage is the increase in +10% range of the rated voltage. Under voltage may cause the device to stop working or it may cause damage to motors if it is excessive. Due to over voltage electrical devices may stop working, or may even burst into flames.

In voltage relay, the true RMS voltage is continuously monitored through the microcontroller and the measured voltage is continuously monitored against the threshold voltage (i.e. the set value for the under voltage and over voltage) and as soon as the fault is detected by microcontroller, the relay trips and mains supply is disconnected and hence the devices are protected against the under voltage and the over voltage. Single phasing is a condition in three-phase supply in which supply to one of the phase is cut-off. It is caused by single phase protection devices such as fuses and circuit breakers. It may cause excessive noise and vibration in motor..

Motor Protection Relays

Electric motors are an integral part of the modern day electrical systems - whether in industrial applications, residential applications or commercial installations (e.g. in pumps, air conditioning systems, fans, conveyors, machine loads etc.). With increasing focus on the automation and energy efficiency, the electric motor technology has developed significantly resulting in extremely energy efficient motors and motors specially suited for automation applications. Keeping pace with these developments, the protection needs for motors have also become advanced.

Overloading of a motor is a very common occurrence in any electrical system which can potentially affect the motors adversely—reducing its working life significantly. Short circuit and Locked Rotor conditions may have immediate damaging effects on the motor winding, unless these conditions are quickly removed. Similarly phase failure leads to motor drawing more current. Phase reversal could result in the stalling of motor or motion in reverse direction.

M-Kris Electric’s Electronic Overcurrent Relay provides comprehensive protection against the following types of abnormal conditions occurring in the electrical systems:
  • · Overload protection
  • · Single phasing protection
  • · Phase sequence reversal protection
  • · Locked rotor protection
  • · Short circuit protection
  • · Earth fault/leakage protection (with external cbct)
