— Trip circuit supervision - 74TCS (H, L, T)
Preface
The protection is available in all versions.
The trip circuit can be monitored to signal possible anomalies that would lead to the missing opening
of circuit breaker when trip and/or operator command are issued.
Circuit interruption as well as missing of auxiliary voltage and/or coil faults are detected.
Supervision with one or two binary inputs can be select; depending on association of binary inputs,
the corresponding logic is automatically selected.
For this purpose the TCS1 and TCS2 (if two binary input are used) matching must be assigned
to the selected binary inputs inside the Set \ Inputs \ Binary input IN1-1 and Set \ Inputs \ Binary
input INx-x menus.
When a binary input is programmed for the TCS function, the IN1 tON, INx tON,
IN1tOFF and
INxtOFF time delays must be reset to zero and the Logic parameter must be set to Active-ON
inside the Set \ Board 1(2) inputs \ Binary input IN1-1...(IN1-x) menus.
Operation and settings
The 74TCS element may be enabled or disabled; to enable it, the 74TCSEnableparameter must be
set to ON inside the Set \ Profile A (or B or C or D) \ Trip circuit supervision-74TCS submenu.
A logic block can be set from une binary input.
[1]
If the 74TCS-BLK1 parameter is set to ON, and a binary input is designed for logical block (Block1),
the TCS supervision function is blocked off whenever the given input is active. The trip timer is held
in reset condition, so the operate time counting starts when the input block goes down. The 74TCS-
BLK1 parameter is available inside the Set \ Profile A (or B or C or D) \ Trip circuit supervision-74TCS
submenu.
All the parameters can be set separately for Profile A , B, C, D.
Two inputs supervision
With two binary input all malfunctions are detected (inclusive of mechanics faults).
The binary inputs are connected to the trip and to the 52b contacts.
The CB auxiliary voltage must be 36 V at least (twice the minimum threshold for every binary input).
The faulty condition is detected occurs if both the following conditions are filled:
A) The TRIP contact is closed (external protection relay tripped);
B) The circuit breaker is closed (52a closed and 52b open).
Because such conditions can arise with healthy circuit too (e.g. a trip command is issued by the
protection relay but the CB opening time is still in progress), to avoid untimely operations the pre-
vious condition are checked every 80 ms and the output is issued after a 2 s delay; outputs are reset
to zero if at least the A or B condition become false after 0.6 s delay.
