SM6 Protection & control monitoring

General characteristics LPCT protection chain

Standard
applications
TLP130, TLP190, CLP2 sensors for
Sepam series 20, 40, 60, 80 protection units
PE88012

LPCT sensors are voltage-output current sensors


(Low Power Current Transformer) compliant with the IEC 60044-8 standard.
These sensors are designed to measure rated current between 5 A and 630 A,
with a ratio of 100 A / 22.5 mV.
Sepam series 20, 40, 60 and 80 protection units are at the heart of the LPCT
protection chain.
Sepam series 20, 40, 60 and 80 performs the following functions:
•• acquisition of phase currents measured by the LPCT sensors
Sepam series 20 •• utilization of measurements by the protection functions
•• tripping of the breaking device in case of fault detection.

Advantages
Demanding
applications •• Consistent protection chain with the same sensor measures phase currents
from 5 A to 630 A
•• Simple to install and implement:
PE88011

-- installation of LPCT sensors


TLP130 and TLP190 are installed around MV cable
CLP2 is installed on the MV circuit
-- LPCT connected directly to Sepam series 20, 40, 60 and 80
-- accessories available to test the LPCT protection chain by secondary current
injection.
•• LPCTs range of use
LPCT measuring and protection function guaranteeing the accuracy up to
Sepam series 40 the short-time current.
Following the range of use of LPCT:
-- from 5 A up to 1250 A respecting the error limits imposed by the accuracy class 0.5
-- from 1250 A up to 50 kA respecting the error limits imposed by the accuracy class 5P.

•• Optimized integration of functions:


-- measurement of phase rated currents as of 25 A that is set by micro-switch
MT11325_LG

-- monitoring of LPCT sensor by Sepam series 20, 40, 60 and 80 (detection of


phase loss).
