12 - G Touch protections
Presentation
G Touch protections are available in all the versions of trip units of the Generators range (Ekip G Touch and
Ekip G Hi-Touch).
List of protections
The following is a list of the G Touch protections:
Symbol Protection against
S(V) Voltage control short-circuit
RV Residual voltage
RQ Reverse reactive power
OQ Maximum reactive power
OP Maximum active power
UP Minimum active power
Operating principle
The protections have a series of parameters available allowing the user to adjust the activation thresholds and
the opening times of the circuit-breaker.
The operating principle of all the protections is similar: if the voltage or power signal exceeds the set protection
threshold, the specific protection will enter the alarm condition and will begin to delay.
The duration of the delay depends on the threshold and time parameters set, and depending on the dynamic
of the signal we can have two behaviours:
• If the alarm condition persists, the trip unit opens the circuit-breaker.
• If the signal drops below the protection threshold, the trip unit exits from the alarm condition, interrupts
the delay and doesn't open the circuit-breaker.
The protection thresholds are distinguished by type:
• The voltage protections are related to the rated size of the voltage line-to-line set on the trip unit (Un).
• The power protections refer to the product of current and rated voltage (Sn = √3 * In * Un).
IMPORTANT:
• To manage the circuit-breaker tripping with a specific protection, the protection itself
must be enabled and, if supported, must have the Trip Enable parameter activated.
• All the protections have a default configuration: if enabled, check the parameters and
make the necessary changes according to the requirements of your installation.
