there is a bi metalic strip is thre in thermal overload relay so when the currtent is high then its settings so that strip bend due to thermal and it touches the other side of the contact so when u touch the tester on that side u will find that its overload if u dont under stand contact me......
The 59N relay may be tripping the breaker due to circuit overload, short circuit, or ground fault. Check for any faulty connections, damaged wires, or improper settings on the relay. Ensure that the relay is properly sized for the load it is protecting and troubleshoot any potential issues in the circuit.
The load current is made to flow through the thermal overload relay, which is actually a bimetalic strip. Beyond a prespecified current the bimetalic strip tend to deflect due to heat (thermal effect) thus cutting off the circuit and hence it acts as an over load relay protection.
one way is to use RTD sensor put inside the motor windings. The RTD sensor is connected to an electronic thermal overload relay. This type of relay can provide running temperature of the motor, on the electronic thermal over load relay display panel. RTD sensor is a wire wound resistor that changes resistance depending on the temperature
The Allen-Bradley 193-EF1A overload relay functions by monitoring the current flowing through the motor circuit. It uses thermal and electronic sensing to detect overload conditions, which occur when the current exceeds a preset limit for a specified duration. When an overload is detected, the relay opens its contacts to interrupt the motor circuit, thereby protecting the motor from damage. The relay can be reset manually or automatically, depending on the specific model and configuration.
An electrical overload relay trips when it detects excessive current flowing through a motor or circuit, which can indicate that the equipment is experiencing overload conditions, such as mechanical binding or excessive load. The relay is designed to protect the motor from overheating by monitoring the current and operating temperature. When the current exceeds a preset threshold for a specified duration, the relay activates and interrupts the power supply to prevent damage. Additionally, factors like short circuits or equipment failure can also lead to tripping.
due to the extension of loads they are using the relays for protection.........
A motor protection circuit breaker (MPCB) is used to protect from overload and/or short circuit currents. An overload relay is used for overload only, and as such will have a relatively long delay before tripping. Also, I believe some overload relays are a one-use device (once tripped, they must be replaced), and I don't believe this is the case with MPCBs (could be wrong though). If you look at a manual for a MPCB, you'll see the tripping curve is two curves in one - at low currents, it is very slow (time in hours), but once you get above load currents, it speeds up significantly down to a few cycles, which is what you want for faults / short circuit conditions. An overload relay will have the first (slow) curve only. Do a google search for Cutler - Hammer (or go to their website) for some examples.
The Allen-Bradley SMP-1 overload relay operates by monitoring the current flowing through the motor circuit. It uses a bimetallic element that heats up as current increases, bending and eventually tripping the relay when the set overload threshold is reached. This action disconnects the motor from the power supply to prevent damage due to overheating. The SMP-1 is designed for easy reset and can be adjusted for different trip settings to accommodate various motor specifications.
To check a compressor's overload, first, ensure the system is powered off for safety. Then, inspect the overload relay for any visible signs of damage or tripped status. Use a multimeter to measure resistance across the overload contacts; if there's no continuity, the overload may be faulty. Additionally, check the current draw against the compressor's rated amperage to determine if it's operating within safe limits.
A device with an overload protection used to control a motor is an Overload Relay.
