These relay sense the Negative Sequence Voltage components of system supply & offers protection against Phase Failure, Phase Sequence Reversal with Under/Over Voltage conditions which are dangerous to motor winding and cause motor burnouts.

What is the working principle of phase failure relay?

A phase failure relay monitors the incoming three phase service lines. If the lines become reversed or loss of one phase causing single phasing, the relay's internal contacts change status. In control panels the control voltage usually is connected through the phase failure relay's auxiliary contacts. If any line anomalies occur the control voltage is cut off and the panel becomes inoperable. Once the line fault is corrected the fault relay senses that everything is alright and then allows the control voltage to power the control panel again.

How can you include phase failure relay in your star delta motor starter circuit?

The star delta motor starter circuit has to have a control voltage to energize the motor magnetic contractors. A phase failure relay monitors all three phases of the incoming supply lines. The phase failure relay also has auxiliary contacts on it. There are usually two sets of "C" form contacts. The control voltage for the starter circuit must be connected across the normally open (N.O.) contacts of one of these two sets. When the phase monitor is energized these N.O. contacts close supplying the control voltage to the circuitry of the star delta starters. If there is a phase interruption, phase reversal or phase loss, the phase failure relay will de-energize and the N.O. contacts will go back to their de-energized state. If the star delta motor starter is in use at the time, its control circuitry voltage will be lost and the delta motor magnetic contactor will open. The opening of this contactor will disconnect the motor from the failed three phase supply.

How is a IDMT relay used to give protection against a phase to earth fault a phase to phase fault on a feeder?

As with any IDMT relay the higher the fault current the quicker the trip time.

Can you replace an 3 phase solid state relay with a contactor on a 3 phase heater?

Not without other modifications. The circuits used to turn the solid state relay on will not be suitable for turning a contactor on.


What phase of the decision making process results in resolving the original problem and failure leads to a return to previous phases?

The conclusion phase of the decision making process results in one of two things. Either the problem is resolved or the failure leads to a return to a previous phase.


What is the definition of negative phase sequence relay?

negative phase relay is used for the protection against unbalanced condition in a basic model a wheastones bridge is used with the operating coil connected across it.when any fault occurs unbalance will occur in the system and the relay will operate


What is phase fail protection?

In a 3 phase power system, say for a 3 phase motor - it is necessary to have all three phases intact to be able to run the motor efficiently, safely. If any one phase fails , the motor still continues to run but the temperature raises rapidly, due to high current. The motor winding can burn out, can trip off due to overload. Hence a device called phase failure relay is connected. It constantly reads all the 3 phases and cuts off the main supply in case any one phase fails.
