General Information

BE1-67

Current Sensing Input(s)

The unit is designed to operate from the secondary of a standard current transformer rated at 5 amperes. The
unit has a pickup adjustment range covering 0.5 to 12 amperes. The maximum continuous current rating of
each input is 20 amperes.

The one-second current rating of each input is 50 times tap or 500 amperes, whichever is less. Ratings at less
than one second are calculated as follows:

where

 I = Maximum current
T = Time that current flows (in seconds)

Current Sensing Burden

Less than 0.01 ohm per input.

Time Overcurrent Pickup

Range

Pickup of the time overcurrent elements is continuously adjustable over theentire range of 0.5 to 12 amperes.
(See Table 1-3.) This is accomplished through the selection of external connections (LOW RANGE 0.5 to 4.0
amperes; HIGH RANGE 1.5 to 12 amperes), a TAP selector switch and TAP CAL adjustment.

A TAP RANGE plate is provided on the front panel to define the external connections and the range of
adjustment available when the unit is installed in the protection panel.

Pickup Accuracy

The accuracy of the pickup setting established by the TAP selector switch when the TAP CAL adjustment is
fully clockwise, is ±5%. The TAP CAL adjustment allows the relay to be set anywhere between the value
established by the TAP selector switch position and the next lower setting position.

The setting of the relay is repeatable within ±2%.

Dropout Ratio

Better than 95% of the established pickup level.
