▪ Inhibited start due damage or destruction of motor or drive
components or insufficient unloading of the driven
machine (accelerating torque too small) tst > tst,normal
▪ Failure to unload the drive on the process side;
load torque > motor torque (0 < n < nN; tst > tst,normal)

▪ Electrical causes
▪ Interruption of a phase (n = 0)

Tripping Characteristic - Changing during Motor Start-up

With the detection of a motor starting, the pick-up characteristic becomes


insensitive (depends on the setting). In that way the negative influence of
the CT dc-offset can be reduced (The two Ct-sets can transform a dc
component different.)

Additional Protection Function (1)


▪ Undercurrent or Under-power Protection
▪ Protect pumps against overheating
▪ Additional used for signalling of an unloaded motor

▪ Under-voltage Protection
▪ Restart inhabit of a motor at low busbar voltage
▪ Trip of the motor in the case of a failure in the infeed

▪ Phase Sequence Supervision


▪ Detects a phase reversal and protects the connected equipment

▪ Underexcitation Protection
▪ Detects asynchronous conditions of a synchronous motor
(sometimes also called as “out of step protection”)

Motor Protection SIPROTEC 4

Additional Protection Function (2)

▪ Mechanical Jam Protection


▪ Detects mechanical problems before other functions are active
and protects the motor
▪ Realisation: Overcurrent protection with a pick-up = 2 IN,M and
time delay t =1 s;
a CFC logic blocks this function during start-up

▪ Backspin Protection
▪ Avoid mechanical stress through blocking of the closing
command in case of an reversal rotation of the pump including
motor
▪ Realisation: CFC logic with controls a timer, time delay depends
on the plant situation (deceleration time)
