BASIC FEATURES 5.1 The equipment shall conform to the relevant standards specified in Clause 4.0 above. They shall be intrinsically safe, of compact light weight design and suitable for Indoor use.

CEB STANDARD 073 : 1998

5.2

The relays shall be of withdrawable type. When withdrawing the relay from the casing, opening of d.c. auxiliary circuits and shorting of CT inputs shall take place automatically, with auxiliary circuits opening first and shorting of CT inputs subsequently. The relay shall be provided with a test block.

5.3 5.4 5.5 5.6 6.0

The relay shall be supplied as a single phase unit, suitable for flush mounting on Panel. The relay shall be of non-directional type. For every 10 Nos. of relays one test plug with testing leads shall be supplied. The relay shall be rendered immune to third harmonic components.

MINIMUM TECHNICAL REQUIREMENTS Setting Ranges Reset Current Reset Time Burden Impulse Withstand : : : : Current setting shall be adjustable between 1% and 15% of the rated current. Relay shall reset at greater than 95% of the operating current. Less than 25 ms. : Shall not be mores than .005 VA at setting

The relay shall withstand impulse of 5 kV peak and 1/50 micro-second, wave form applied both transversely and between relay terminals and earth, in accordance with IEC 255-5 Clause. 5A

: : :

2 x rated current continuously 50 x rated current for 1 sec. 25 x rated current for 3 sec. The equipment shall withstand 2kV rms for 1 minute between all case terminals connected together and the case. 2 kV rms for 1 minute between independent circuits of the Scheme, including contact circuits. 1 kV rms 1 minute across the contacts of the normally open outgoing contact pairs (IEC 2555).

High Frequency Disturbance

: The relay shall comply with the requirements of draft IEC test recommendation for the High Frequency Disturbance Test. The accuracy of relay shall not be affected by repetitive 1 MHz bursts having an initial peak of 1.0 kV superimposed across the terminals of each independent circuit and 2.5 kV between independent circuits, and circuit to earth, with a delay time 3 to 6 microseconds and with a repetition rate of 400 bursts per second. The rates shall be performed with the relay energized (IEC 255-22-1 Class III)
