QUESTION : 1.AT PRESETN IN CASE OF BFP PROTECTION ACTED BREAKER IS OPENED BY DCS, BUT AFTER VFD INSTALLATION EITHER DCS WILL OPEN THE BREAKER OR IT GIVES OFF COMMAND TO VFD ? 2.WHAT ABOUT RUN OUT PROTECTION? 3.AS VFD IS NOT AN INTELLIGENT DEVICE LIKE DCS AND IT GIVES ON (6.6KV BREAKER) / OFF COMMAND BASED ON ISOLATOR FEEDBACKS, BUT HOW WE CAN ENSURE PROTECTION ? 4.IF OPERATOR GIVES LOW FREQUENCY SETPOINT THAN OPERATING FREQUENCY ,WHAT IS THE BEHAVIOUR OF VFD / WHICH ONE IT WILL TAKE?

THANK YOU
