Internal ground-fault monitoring when using a 2nd generation current / voltage
measuring module
Settings
You can parameterize two different response levels (trip level, warning level) for monitoring
the ground-fault current.
If the ground-fault current exceeds the response level, the current limit monitoring will
respond.
See also "Tables of responses of SIMOCODE pro" in Chapter Important information
(Page 7).

Trip level, warning level
You can parameterize two different response levels (trip level, warning level) for monitoring
the ground-fault current.
If the ground-fault current exceeds the response level, the current limit monitoring will
respond.
The lowest value for internal ground-fault monitoring that can be set as the warning and trip
level is 10 % of the set rated motor current I
s
.
The thresholds are entered in A.
Two use cases are distinguished depending on the effective motor current through the
measuring module:
● Normal stationary use case up to 2x rated motor current I
s
: Residual currents greater than
the value of the set trip/warning levels are detected. Ground-fault monitoring fulfills the
accuracy requirements of IEC 60947-1 Class II-B.
● Temporary starting or overload operation greater than 2x rated motor current I
s
:
Responsiveness in the overload range of > 2x rated motor current is reduced to reduce
false tripping. Residual currents of > 1/2 * I_trip level/I_s * I_max (of the effective motor
current) are detected.
