    373-ELR Earth Leakage Protection Relay

    Residual current devices are used to detect potentially dangerous earth fault currents before damage is caused. An undetected fault current may lead to cables overheating, which could start a fire. If high fault currents are involved, hazardous voltages may also appear on earthed equipment, putting lives at risk. The 373-ELR earth leakage protection relay allows the fault current to be continuously monitored and compared with the user selectable leakage level. Should the leakage exceed this level, the relay will trip to indicate a fault condition. With a very fast response time of under 40ms, the supply can be disconnected before serious damage can occur. This product is intended to provide a high degree of earth leakage protection and monitoring for any electrical equipment, specifically motors and their control gear, generator sets and transformers.

    Description
    The 373-ELR range offers a standard DPCO version, incorporating a single setpoint, LED leakage level indicator and double pole change over relay contacts. The default relay operation is to de-energize on trip, however, relay operation can be reversed to energize on trip by fitting a wire link between two terminals. For additional functionality, an optional pre-alarm relay version is available where the main setpoint relay has two single pole change over contacts, one of which will deenergize on trip function and the other will de-energize when the leakage level reaches 60% of the selected setting. This protector does not check the continuity of any part of the earthing circuit, it is designed for secondary protection due to the externally connected current transformer and contactor components. Life protection devices require an integral CT and main contactor.

    Features
    Precision digital settings LED bargraph display 10 selectable trip levels 30mA to 10A 16 selectable time delay 0ms to 10 seconds Less than 40ms response time 0-1mA analog output 8 Amp 250V rated relay contacts User selectable energize or de-energize link Double pole change over relay Single pole pre-alarm option

    Operation
    The 373-ELR features two incremental rotary selector switches on the front panel and a series of LED annunciators. The 10 position trip current switch offers selectable earth leakage current settings from 30mA to 10 Amps, and the 16 position time delay setpoint switch offers additional delay for fault discriminaton, selectable from 0 to 10 seconds. When the 30mA trip current leakage is selected, the time delay is disabled. Once the trip current and time delay selections have been made, a green LED provides indication of mains healthy supply. The red LED will automatically illuminate if the pre-set leakage level has been exceeded, after any selected time delay. The unit also incorporates a bargraph of 5 yellow LEDs providing indication of the level of leakage in 20% increments. When all 5 LEDs are illuminated the leakage level has reached 100% of the setpoint setting. The enhanced pre-alarm single pole change over relay contact version also incorporates a red LED providing indication that the level of leakage has reached 60% of the selected range, and that the pre-alarm relay has operated. The unit features a combined reset and test button. A short press of the button will reset the unit after a trip, and one long press initiates an electronic confidence check. The relay latches on to a fault until the test/rest button is pressed or the auxiliary power is removed. The relay will de-energize on trip (fail safe) as standard. Fitting a link between two terminals will select energize on trip.

    Benefits
    DIN rail 43880 enclosure Switched mode supply accepts a wide range of auxiliary voltages Detects residual current flow Isolation of faulty circuits Insulation monitoring Advanced warning of faults Complementary range of core balanced CTs Protection of expensive power assets

    Applications
    Switchgear Distribution systems Generator sets Control panels Building management Utility power monitoring Process control Motor protection Transformer protection

    Analog Outputs
    The 373-ELR unit incorporates an 0/1mA analog output which equals 0 to 100% of the selected tripping level. It can be used to drive an external test meter or panel meter, thus providing measurements for test commissioning and a useful indication of potential problems. The analog output also enables fault level diagnosis to be communicated into building management or intellelligent SCADA systems, whereby insulation deterioration can be monitored over a period of time and preventative maintenance arrangements made prior to expensive equipment failure.

    Core Balanced Current Transformers


    The leakage current is determined by passing the phase conductors (and neutral if present) through a core balanced current transformer, all supply cables must pass through the same aperture. The current transformers sum the currents flowing into and back from the load. Ideally, the load will have no leakage current, so current flow through the CT will completely cancel out. For example, 100 Amps flowing into load and 97 Amps flowing back provides an output of 3 Amps. Crompton offer a full range of core balanced current transformers suitable for use with 373-ELR earth leakage protection relays. 8
