NC20 MULTIFUNCTION PROTECTION FOR BANK CAPACITORS/HARMONIC FILTERS WITH UNDER/OVERVOLTAGE ELEMENTS

                  

The relay type NC20 provides protection of shunt capacitor banks and harmonic filter circuits. The capacitor banks may have the following configurations:

      • Single Wye grounded.

      • Single Wye ungrounded (with a resistor on the output of the neutral unbalance voltage transformer in order to develop the appropriate input current for the unbalance protection).

      • Double Wye ungrounded.

    The capacitor banks may be: internally/externally fused or fuseless capacitor units. A suitable compensation method is provided to compensate the inherent unbalance neutral current

    Protections 37, 49 and 50/51 (RMS) are based on RMS value measurement of the three phase currents (fundamental and harmonics up to the 11th)
