Frequency tracking
Within the frequency range 20...63 Hz (
f
n
= 50 Hz or 60 Hz) a frequency tracking algorithm adjusts the
currents sampling frequency, so as to keep the number of samples in any given period constant.
With 64 samples for periods the sampling rate is adjusted from 1.28 kHz with f = 20 Hz to 4.032 kHz with
f= 63 Hz.
For a frequency step change the tracking response time is 0.1 Hz/s.
The frequency measure is based on the largest phase voltage; if the largest signal between the input
phase voltages are lower than 1.5%

If the larger phase input current is lower than 25%

and the larger phase input voltage is lower
than 1.5%

the sampling frequency is fi xed to

n
(50 or 60 Hz).
If the measured frequency is outside the locking range
,
the sampling frequency is fi xed to the lower
or upper value (20 - 63 Hz).
All protective elements are always operative; accuracy is guaranteed inside the locked frequency
band.
