Application
The relay can be used in
applications where time graded
overcurrent and earth fault
protection is required.
The relay can be used to provide
selective protection for overhead
and underground distribution
feeders. Other applications include
back-up protection for transformers,
generators and HV feeder circuits
and the protection of neutral
earthing resistors.
With all the current/time
characteristics available on one
relay, a standard relay can be
ordered before detailed coordination studies are carried out
a distinct advantage for complex
systems. Also, changes in system
configuration can be readily
accommodated.

Description
This range of MCGG relays is
designed so that versions are
available with separate measuring
boards for each phase or earth fault
input; alternatively, phase inputs
may be combined on to one board
for polyphase measurement (see
table). These boards, together with
the other circuits of the relay, are
contained in a single plug-in module
which is supplied in a size 4, 6 or 8
Midos case. The case incorporates
one or two terminal blocks for
external connections. Removal of the
module automatically short circuits
the current transformer connections
by means of safety contacts within
the case terminal block. For added
security, when the module is
removed, the CT circuits are short
circuited before the connections to
the output contacts and the dc
supply are broken. The relay uses
solid state techniques, each
measuring board utilising a microcomputer as a basic circuit element.
The current measurement, whether
performed on a single phase or
polyphase input, is performed via
an analogue-to-digital converter.
Application diagrams are provided
in Figures 2 to 8 (inclusive) showing
typical wiring configurations.

Instantaneous earth fault element
For installations where the earth fault element is required to have a sensitive
setting whilst remaining stable on heavy through faults, the use of a stabilising
resistor is recommended, the value of which will vary according to the
specific application. If assistance is required in selecting the appropriate
value, please consult the Applications Department of ALSTOM T&D
Protection & Control Ltd.
