1.3Changing Settings
1.3.1Introduction
There are several classes of settings, each distinguished by the way their values are
displayed and edited.
The relay's menu is arranged in a tree structure. Each setting in the menu is referred to as
a settings, and each settings in the menu may be accessed as described in the previous
section.
The settings are arranged in pages with each page containing related settings; for
example, all the Short Circuit Trip settings are contained within the same page. As
previously explained, the top menu page of each setting group describes the settings
contained within that page. Pressing the
these top menus.
All of the 469 settings fall into one of following categories: device settings, system settings,
digital input settings, output relay settings, thermal model settings, current element
settings, motor starting settings, RTD temperatures settings, voltage element settings,
power element settings, monitoring settings, analog input/output settings, two speed
motor settings, and testing settings.
MESSAGE keys allows the user to move between
Note
IMPORTANT: Settings are stored and used by the relay immediately after they are
entered. As such, caution must be exercised when entering settings while the relay is in
service. Modifying or storing protection settings is not recommended when the relay is
in service since any incompatibility or lack of coordination with other previously saved
settings may cause unwanted operations.
Now that we have become more familiar with maneuvering through messages, we can
learn how to edit the values used by all settings classes.
Hardware and passcode security features are designed to provide protection against
unauthorized settings changes. Since we will be programming new settings using the front
panel keys, a hardware jumper must be installed across the settings access terminals (C1
and C2) on the back of the relay case. Attempts to enter a new settings without this
electrical connection will result in an error message.
The jumper does not restrict settings access via serial communications. The relay has a
programmable passcode settings, which may be used to disallow settings changes from
both the front panel and the serial communications ports. This passcode consists of up to
eight (8) alphanumeric characters.
The factory default passcode is “0”. When this specific value is programmed into the relay
it has the effect of removing all settings modification restrictions. Therefore, only the
settings access jumper can be used to restrict settings access via the front panel and there
are no restrictions via the communications ports.
When the passcode is programmed to any other value, settings access is restricted for the
front panel and all communications ports. Access is not permitted until the passcode is
entered via the keypad or is programmed into a specific register (via communications).
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–9
Note that enabling settings access on one interface does not automatically enable access
for any of the other interfaces (i.e., the passcode must be explicitly set in the relay via the
interface from which access is desired).
A front panel command can disable settings access once all modifications are complete.
For the communications ports, writing an invalid passcode into the register previously
used to enable settings access disables access. In addition, settings access is
automatically disabled on an interface if no activity is detected for thirty minutes.
The EnerVista 469 Setup software incorporates a facility for programming the relay's
passcode as well as enabling and disabling settings access. For example, when an attempt
is made to modify a settings but access is restricted, the software will prompt the user to
enter the passcode and send it to the relay before the settings is actually written to the
relay. If a SCADA system is used for relay programming, it is the programmer's
responsibility to incorporate appropriate security for the application.

Pressing the HELP key displays context-sensitive information about settings such as the
range of values and the method of changing the settings. Help messages will
automatically scroll through all messages currently appropriate.
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
1.3.3Numerical Settings
Each numerical settings has its own minimum, maximum, and step value. These
parameters define the acceptable settings value range. Two methods of editing and
storing a numerical settings value are available.
The first method uses the 469 numeric keypad in the same way as any electronic
calculator. A number is entered one digit at a time with the 0 to 9 and decimal keys. The
left-most digit is entered first and the right-most digit is entered last. Pressing

1.4Application Example
1.4.1Description
The 469 Motor Management Relay contains many features designed to accommodate a
wide range of motor management applications. This chapter is provided to guide you, the
first-time user, through a real-world application.
The following is typical example of how to determine the relay settings for a specific motor
that has been applied conservatively. This is only an example and may not address all
issues relating to your specific application. It is recommended that your local protection
engineer determine the settings for your motor protective relaying application. Refer to
following figures for schematic diagrams related to this example.
Important points to keep in mind before developing settings for any multifunction
numerical device like the 469 Motor Management Relay:
•Gather system data, including, but not limited to:
– CT primary and secondary ratings for all the CTs used to feed the relay
– motor name plate data
– motor operating curves (typical set shown below)
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–17
FIGURE 1–1: Typical Motor Curves
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
– VT primary and secondary ratings
– System frequency
– System phase sequence
•Define the protection elements that will be enabled. Prepare a list of protection
functions including the following information. By default, all the protection functions
must be assumed “Disabled”:
– Pickup parameter
– Operating curve, if applicable
– Time dial or multiplier
– Any additional intentional time delay
– Directionality, if applicable
•Define how many output contacts will be energized in response to a given protection
function. Note that the 469 relay can be programmed to Trip or Alarm and, at the
same time, to energize one, a combination, or all the 2 auxiliary relays during the
process.
•Define if the output relays will be set as failsafe type.
•Define if the 469 relay will be used to start the motor. If so, gather information on the
required conditions to execute the command.
•Define if the 469 will be involved in the motor starting process, particularly on reduced
voltage start applications.
•Define if the 469 will be applied a multi speed applications.
•Define if the relay will be used to monitor the status of the starter or breaker. It is
strongly recommended that the 469 be always programmed to monitor the status of
the disconnecting device, by means of a dry contact connected to one of the digital
inputs of the relay. Use an auxiliary contact from the breaker or starter either a
normally open contact, 52a, which is normally in open position when the
disconnecting device is open, or a normally closed contact, 52b, which is in close
position when the breaker or starter is open.
•If the 469 will be used to respond to digital inputs, record the following information:
– Digital Input name
– Condition by which the digital input would be considered asserted
– Function that the digital input will initiate within the 469
•If the 469 will be used to perform monitoring functions and act upon certain
conditions, record information such as:
– minimum and maximum values
– alarm and trip values
– time delays
•It is important to familiarize yourself with the relay protection and control functions
before setting up the relay.

c) Line voltage: 600 V
•Motor Data
As per the following motor data sheet information:

469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–23
•Motor Operating Curves
Motor operating curves as shown below:
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
FIGURE 1–7: Motor Operating Curves for Application Example
•Control System Requirements
– All protection elements trip the breaker
– Breaker position monitoring via 52b contact only
– Only current metering is required
– Serial communication remote start from RTU
– Alarm after 100 s delay from station monitor. This is normally used to signal the
remote center when someone has gained access to the substation.
•Contact Outputs
– Trip and close to breaker control circuit (Trip and Auxiliary2 relays)
– Relay failure alarm to RTU (self-test warning relay, no programming required)
– Alarm contact (setup in General Sw. A for “Station Monitor”)
– No data communications to other equipment.
1–24469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
1.4.2Instrument Transformer Data
•RTDs
The motor is fitted with the following RTDs:
– RTD type: 100 Ω Platinum
– 6 Stator RTDs, 2 per phase
– 2 Bearing RTDs
– 1 Ambient RTD
Use the above data to set the output relays to achieve breaker control; to set digital inputs
for breaker status, remote operations, remote status, and alarm indication. Assume that
the communications between the station and the master control center will be done by the
RTU. Alarms, status indication, and breaker commands will be hard-wired from the relay to
the RTU. Similar information could be exchanged between the RTU and the relay via an
RS485 or RS422 Serial Link using the Modbus RTU protocol. Refer to GE Publication GEK106491C: 469 Communications Guide for additional information.
•Voltage Transformers
– 2 × Open Delta connected, ratio = 600:120 V
– Motor System Voltage = 575 V
•Phase CTs
The phase CTs should be chosen such that the FLC is 50% to 100% of CT primary.
Since the FLC is 347.5A a 350:5, or 400:5 CT may be chosen; 400:5 is a standard
available size and so would probably be selected.
•Ground CT
For high resistive grounded systems, sensitive ground detection is possible with the
50:0.025 CT. Use a 1 A or 5 A secondary CT on solidly grounded or low resistive
grounded systems where the fault current is much higher. If a residual connection is
chosen, pickup levels and timers must be set with respect to the acceleration time.
The chosen zero-sequence CT must be able to handle all potential fault levels without
saturating. In this example, 50:5A CT is selected.
•Motor FLC
Set the motor full load current to 348 A, as specified by the data sheets.
Use the above data to set the relay system parameters, such as CT and VT
connections, VT secondary voltage, and CT and VT primary to secondary ratios.
1.4.3Motor Protection
•Overload Pickup
The overload pickup is set to the maximum allowed by the service factor of the motor.
Since this motor has RTDs and the relay will be using the RTD bias feature for
enhanced protection, set the overload pickup to the highest setting of 1.25 x FLC for
the motor service factor of 1.15. If service factor is unknown, assume 1.0.
•Overload Curve
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–25
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
Select the standard overload curve to be just below the cold thermal limit to give
maximum process uptime, without compromising protection.
The best fitting curve is curve 7 (see figure below)

FIGURE 1–8: Overload Curve Matching (Example)
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
•Short Circuit Trip
The short circuit trip should be set above the maximum locked rotor current but below
the short circuit current of the fuses. The data sheets indicate a maximum locked rotor
current of 630% FLC or 6.3 × FLC. A setting of 7 × FLC with a instantaneous time delay
will be ideal but nuisance tripping may result due to the asymmetrical starting
currents and DC offset. If asymmetrical starting currents limits the starting capability,
set the S/C level higher to a maximum of 11 × FLC to override this condition
(1.7 × 6.3 = 11.7 where 1.7 is the maximum DC offset for an asymmetrical current).
•Ground Fault
Unfortunately, there is not enough information to determine a ground fault setting.
These settings depend on the following information:
1.The ground fault current available.
2.System grounding; for example, high resistive grounding or solidly grounded
3.Ground fault CT used.
4.Ground fault connection; for example, zero-sequence or residual connection
For the purpose of this example, assume a fault current of 10 Amps or 10/50 = 0.2 x
CT, no intentional time delay.
•Unbalance Alarm and Trip
The unbalance settings are determined by examining the motor application and
motor design. The heating effect of unbalance will be protected by enabling
unbalance input to thermal memory; described in details in Chapter 5, Thermal Model.
A setting of 10% for the unbalance alarm with a delay of 10 seconds would be
appropriate and the trip can be set to 25% with a delay of 5 seconds.
•Stopped and Running Cool Times
The motor manufacturer usually supplies this information as either cooling times, or
cooling time constants not provided in the data sheet issued with this motor. Since
RTDs are present and wired to the relay, biasing of the thermal model will be used so it
is not critical to have these cooling times from the manufacturer. The default values of
motor cooling time constants are 15 and 30 minutes, and can be used for the running
and stopped cool times respectively. If the manufacturer provides cooling times
instead, the approximate values of the cooling time constants is 1/5th the cooling
times provided by the manufacturer.
•Acceleration Trip
This settings should be set higher than the maximum starting time to avoid nuisance
tripping when the voltage is lower or for varying loads during acceleration. If reduced
voltage starting is used, according to the acceleration curves, a setting of 18 seconds
would be appropriate, or if across the line starting is used, a setting of 13 seconds
would be appropriate.
•Enable Start Inhibit
This function will limit starts when the motor is already hot. The relay learns the
amount of thermal capacity used at start. If the motor is hot, thus having some
thermal capacity used, the relay will not allow a start if the available thermal capacity
is less than the required thermal capacity for a start.
1–28469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
When available, set starts/Hour to the number of cold starts as per the data sheet.
•Time Between Starts
In some cases, the motor manufacturer will specify the time between motor starts.
This information is not given so this feature can be left disabled. If the information is
available, the time provided on the motor data sheets should be programmed.
•Stator RTDs
Set the RTD trip level at or below the maximum temperature rating of the insulation.
The data available shows class F insulation (temperature rating of 155°C), therefore
the Stator RTD Trip level should be set to between 140°C to 155°C, with 155°C being
maximum. The RTD alarm level should be set to provide a warning that the motor
temperature is rising. For this example, 135°C would be appropriate since this motor is
designed for class B rise, 130°C is it's normal hot operating temperature.
•Bearing RTDs
The Bearing RTD alarm and trip settings will be determined by evaluating the
temperature specification from the bearing manufacturer.
•Unbalance bias of thermal capacity
Enable the Unbalance Bias of Thermal Capacity so that the heating effect of
unbalance currents is added to the Thermal Capacity Used.
•Unbalance bias K factor
The K value is used to calculate the contribution of the negative-sequence current
flowing in the rotor due to unbalance. It is defined as:
where: Rr2 = rotor negative-sequence resistance
R
= rotor positive-sequence resistance.
r1
A formula based on empirical data states that K is equal to 230 divided by the per-unit
locked rotor current squared.
From the data sheet, the locked rotor amps = 631% FLA or 6.31 × FLA. Therefore,
•Hot/cold curve ratio
The hot/cold curve ratio is calculated by simply dividing the hot safe stall time by the
cold safe stall time or use the motor thermal limits curve. For this example, both are
available. Using the data sheets the, safe stall time H/C or hot/cold curve ratio is given
as 16/18 = 0.89
(EQ 1.1)
(EQ 1.2)
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL1–29
•Enable RTD Biasing
This will enable the temperature from the Stator RTD sensors, to be included in the
calculations of thermal capacity. This model determines the thermal capacity used
based on the temperature of the Stator and is separate from the overload model for
calculating thermal capacity used.
CHAPTER 1: GETTING STARTED
806550A1.CDR
RTD biasing is a back up protection element, which accounts for such things as loss of
cooling or unusually high ambient temperature. This measured temperature is used to
bias or modify the thermal capacity value stored in the relay.
RTD BIAS MINIMUM: Set to 40°C, which is the ambient temperature, obtained from the
data sheets.
RTD BIAS MID POINT: The center point temperature is set to the motor's hot running
temperature and is calculated as follows:
Temperature Rise of Stator + Ambient Temperature
The temperature rise of the stator is 80°C (class F rise by resistance) + 10% hot spot
allowance, obtained from the data sheets. Therefore, the RTD Center point
temperature is set to 90°C + 40°C or 130°C.
RTD BIAS MAXIMUM: This settings is set to the rating of the insulation or slightly less. A
class F insulation is used in this motor which is rated at 155°C, so the setting should be
“155”.
FIGURE 1–9: RTD Bias Example 1
You should now be familiar with maneuvering through and editing settings messages. As
such, we will now limit our discussion to just the values that must be programmed to meet
the requirements of the example application. Any settings not explicitly mentioned should
be left at the factory default value.
1.4.4S2 System Settings
The S2 settings page contains settings for entering the characteristics of the equipment on
the motor electrical system. In our example, these characteristics are specified under the
Power System Data and Instrument Transformer Data headings in the previous subsection. From this information and the resulting calculations, program the page S2 settings
as indicated.

MOTOR NAMEPLATE VOLTAGE: “575 V”
The 469 Motor Management Relay was designed with the ability to display primary system
values. Current and voltage measurements are performed at secondary levels, which the
relay transforms to primary values using CT and VT ratios, system voltage, as well as the
nominal secondary values.
In the case of the phase CTs, configuring the relay for current measurements is simple and
it only requires inputting the CT primary current. Phase CT inputs can be 1 A or 5 A, and
they must be specified when the relay is purchased.
There is more flexibility with regards to Ground CT inputs, as well as VT inputs, where
nominal values are not required ahead of time, before the relay is ordered; therefore more
settings are needed to set the relay for measurements.
Make the following change in the
S2 SYSTEM SETUP ZV POWER SYSTEM settings page to
reflect the power system:
NOMINAL SYSTEM FREQUENCY: “60 Hz”
SYSTEM PHASE SEQUENCE: “ABC”
The example calls for remote control via serial communications, received from the master
station, through the RTU. Motor starting and stopping is possible via any of the three 469
communication ports.
When a start command is issued, the auxiliary relay assigned for starting control is
activated for 1 second to complete the close coil circuit for a breaker application, or
complete the start control circuit for a contactor application. A contactor sealing contact
would be used to maintain the circuit. For details on issuing a start or stop command via
communications, refer to the GE Publication GEK-106491: 469 Communications Guide.
Make the following changes to the communications settings in the

469 Motor Management Relay
Chapter 2: Introduction
Introduction
2.1.1Description
The 469 Motor Management Relay is a microprocessor based relay designed for the
protection and management of medium and large horsepower motors and driven
equipment. The 469 is equipped with six (6) output relays for trips, alarms, and start blocks.
Motor protection, fault diagnostics, power metering, and RTU functions are integrated into
one economical drawout package. The single-line diagram below illustrates the 469
functionality using ANSI (American National Standards Institute) device numbers
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL2–1
Some of the protection highlights are detailed here; a complete list is shown below. Four
assignable digital inputs may be configured for a number of different features including
tachometer or generic trip and alarm with a programmable name. The thermal model
incorporates unbalance biasing, RTD feedback, and exponential cooling. In addition to the
15 standard overload curves, there is a custom curve feature and a curve specifically
designed for the starting of high inertia loads, when the acceleration time exceeds the safe
stall time. A second overload curve is provided for two-speed motors. Ground faults or
earth leakage as low as 0.25 A may be detected using the GE Multilin 50:0.025 Ground CT.
CT inputs for phase differential protection are also provided. The 12 RTD inputs provided
may be individually field programmed for different RTD types. Voltage transformer inputs
allow for numerous protection features based on voltage and power quantities. Four
4 to 20 mA analog inputs may be used for tripping and alarming on any transducer input
such as vibration, pressure, flow, etc.

Fault diagnostics are provided through pretrip data, event record, trace memory, and
statistics. Prior to issuing a trip, the 469 takes a snapshot of the measured parameters and
stores them with the cause of the trip. This pre-trip data may be viewed using the
key, viewing the
ZV LAST TRIP DATA actual values. The 469 event recorder stores up to 256 time and date

stamped events including the pre-trip data. Each time a trip occurs, the 469 stores a trace
of 8 cycles pre-trip and 8 cycles post-trip for all measured AC quantities. Trip counters
record the number of occurrences of each type of trip. Minimum and maximum values for
analog inputs, along with maximum values for RTDs, are also recorded. These features
enable the operator to pinpoint a problem quickly and with certainty.
Power metering included with the 469 as a standard feature. The table below outlines the
metered parameters available either through the front panel or communications ports.
CHAPTER 2: INTRODUCTION
The 469 is equipped with 3 fully functional and independent communications ports. The
front panel RS232 port may be used for 469 settings programming, local interrogation or
control, and upgrading of 469 firmware. The Computer RS485 port may be connected to a
PLC, DCS, or PC based user interface program. The Auxiliary RS485 port may be used for
redundancy or simultaneous interrogation and/or control from a second PLC, DCS, or PC
software.
There are also four 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 1 mA (as specified with order) transducer outputs
that may be assigned to any measured parameter. The range of these outputs is scalable.
Additional features are outlined below.

Installation
3.1Mechanical Installation
3.1.1Description
The 469 is packaged in the standard GE Multilin SR-series arrangement, which consists of
a drawout unit and a companion fixed case. The case provides mechanical protection to
the unit and is used to make permanent connections to all external equipment. The only
electrical components mounted in the case are those required to connect the unit to the
external wiring. Connections in the case are fitted with mechanisms required to allow the
safe removal of the relay unit from an energized panel (for example, automatic CT
shorting). The unit is mechanically held in the case by pins on the locking handle that
cannot be fully lowered to the locked position until the electrical connections are
completely mated. Any 469 can be installed in any 469 case, except for custom
manufactured units that are clearly identified as such on both case and unit, and are
equipped with an index pin keying mechanism to prevent incorrect pairings.
No special ventilation requirements need to be observed during the installation of the unit.
The 469 can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–1
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
FIGURE 3–1: Dimensions
To prevent unauthorized removal of the drawout unit, a wire lead seal can be installed in
the slot provided on the handle. With this seal in place, the drawout unit cannot be
removed. A passcode or settings access jumper can be used to prevent entry of settings
but allow monitoring of actual values. If access to the front panel controls must be
restricted, a separate seal can be installed on the cover to prevent it from being opened.
Hazard may result if the product is not used for its intended purpose.
3.1.2Product Identification
Each 469 unit and case are equipped with a permanent label. This label is installed on the
left side (when facing the front of the relay) of both unit and case. The case label details
which units can be installed.
FIGURE 3–2: Seal on Drawout Unit
The case label details the following information: model number, manufacture date, and
special notes.
3–2469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
The unit label details the following information: model number, type, serial number,
manufacture date, phase current inputs, special notes, overvoltage category, insulation
voltage, pollution degree, control power, and output contact rating.
3.1.3Installation
FIGURE 3–3: Case and Unit Identification Labels
The 469 case, alone or adjacent to another SR-series unit, can be installed in the panel of a
standard 19-inch rack (see below for panel cutout dimensions). Provision must be made
when mounting for the front door to swing open without interference to, or from, adjacent
equipment. Normally the 469 unit is mounted in its case when shipped from the factory,
and should be removed before mounting the case in the supporting panel. Unit withdrawal
is described in the next section.

CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
3.1.5Ethernet Connection
When the unit is fully inserted, the latch will be heard to click, locking the handle in
the final position.
No special ventilation requirements need to be observed during the installation of the
unit. The unit does not require cleaning.
If using the 469 with the Ethernet 10Base-T option, ensure that the network cable is
disconnected from the rear RJ45 connector before removing the unit from the case. This
prevents any damage to the connector.
The unit may also be removed from the case with the network cable connector still
attached to the rear RJ45 connector, provided that there is at least 16" of network cable
available when removing the unit from the case. This extra length allows the network cable
to be disconnected from the RJ45 connector from the front of the switchgear panel. Once
disconnected, the cable can be left hanging safely outside the case for re-inserting the unit
back into the case.
The unit may then be re-inserted by first connecting the network cable to the units' rear
RJ45 connector (see step 3 of Unit Withdrawal and Insertion on page 3–5).
Ensure that the network cable does not get caught inside the case while sliding in the
unit. This may interfere with proper insertion to the case terminal blocks and damage
the cable.
FIGURE 3–10: Ethernet Cable Connection
To ensure optimal response from the relay, the typical connection timeout should be set as
indicated in the following table:
TCP/IP sessionsTimeout setting

469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–7
3.1.6DeviceNet Connection
If using the 469 DeviceNet option (Refer to GEK-106491C: 469 Communications Guide),
ensure that the network cable is disconnected from the rear terminal block before
removing the unit out of the case to prevent any damage to the connector.
The unit may also be removed from the case with the network cable connector still
attached to the rear terminal block provided that there is at least 16" of network cable
available when removing the unit out of the case. This extra length will allow the network
cable to be disconnected from the terminal block from the front of the switchgear panel.
Once disconnected, the cable can be left hanging safely outside the case for re-inserting
the unit back into the case.
The unit may then be re-inserted by first connecting the network cable to the units' rear
terminal block (see step 3 of Unit Withdrawal and Insertion on page 3–5).
Ensure that the network cable does not get caught inside the case while sliding in the
unit. This may interfere with proper insertion to the case terminal blocks and damage
the cable.
The DeviceNet port has the following characteristics:
• Connector type: 5-pin Phoenix connector
• Baud rate: 125K, 250K or 500K baud
• Protocol: DeviceNet

3.2Electrical Installation
3.2.1Typical Wiring
FIGURE 3–12: Typical Wiring Diagram
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–11
3.2.2Description
A broad range of 469 applications are available. Although it is not possible to present
typical connections for all possible schemes, this section will cover the interconnections of
instrument transformer inputs, other inputs, outputs, communications, and grounding. See
FIGURE 3–11: Terminal Layout on page 3–9 and Table 3–1: 469 Terminal List on page 3–9
for terminal arrangement.
3.2.3Control Power
The order code from the terminal label on the side of the drawout unit specifies the
nominal control voltage as follows:
Ensure applied control voltage and rated voltage on drawout case terminal label match.
For example, the HI power supply will work with any DC voltage from 90 to 300 V, or AC
voltage from 70 to 265 V. The internal fuse may blow if the applied voltage exceeds this
range.
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
LO: 20 to 60 V DC; 20 to 48 V AC, or
HI: 90 to 300 V DC; 70 to 265 V AC
The 469 control power must match the installed switching power supply. If the applied
voltage does not match, damage to the unit may occur!
FIGURE 3–13: Control Power Connection
Extensive filtering and transient protection are built into the 469 to ensure proper
operation in harsh industrial environments. Transient energy must be conducted back to
the source through the filter ground terminal. A separate safety ground terminal is
provided for hi-pot testing.
All grounds MUST be hooked up for normal operation regardless of control power
supply type.
3–12469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
3.2.4Current Inputs
Phase Current Inputs
The 469 has three channels for phase current inputs, each with an isolating transformer.
There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. If the unit is withdrawn,
each phase CT circuit is shorted by automatic mechanisms on the 469 case. The phase CTs
should be chosen so the FLA is no less than 50% of the rated phase CT primary. Ideally, the
phase CT primary should be chosen such that the FLA is 100% of the phase CT primary or
slightly less, never more. This will ensure maximum accuracy for the current
measurements. The maximum phase CT primary current is 5000 A.
The 469 correctly measures up to 20 times the phase current nominal rating. Since the
conversion range is large, 1 A or 5 A CT secondaries must be specified at the time of order
to ensure the appropriate interposing CT is installed in the unit. The chosen CTs must be
capable of driving the 469 phase CT burden (see Specifications on page 2–6 for ratings).
Verify that the 469 nominal phase current of 1 A or 5 A matches the secondary rating
and connections of the connected CTs. Unmatched CTs may result in equipment
damage or inadequate protection. Polarity of the phase CTs is critical for Negative
Sequence Unbalance calculation, power measurement, and residual ground current
detection (if used).
See Two-Phase CT Configuration on page A–1 for 2-phase CT information.
Ground Current Input
The 469 has a dual primary isolating transformer for ground CT connection. There are no
internal ground connections on the ground current inputs. The ground CT circuits are
shorted by automatic mechanisms on the 469 case if the unit is withdrawn. The 1 A / 5 A
tap is used either for zero-sequence / core balance applications or residual ground
connections where the summation of the three phase current CTs is passed through the
ground current input (see the figure below). The maximum ground CT primary current is
5000A for the 1A / 5A tap. Alternatively, the 50:0.025 ground CT input has been designed
for sensitive ground current detection on high resistance grounded systems where the GE
Multilin 50:0.025 core-balance CT is to be used. For example, in mining applications where
earth leakage current must be measured for personnel safety, primary ground current as
low as 0.25 A may be detected with the GE Multilin 50:0.025 CT. Only one ground CT input
tap should be used on a given unit.
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–13
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
FIGURE 3–14: Residual Ground CT Connection
The 469 measures up to 5 A secondary current if the 1 A / 5 A tap is used. Since the
conversion range is relatively small, the 1 A or 5 A option is field programmable. Proper
selection of this settings ensures proper reading of primary ground current. The 1 A / 5 A
ground CT chosen must be capable of driving the 469 ground CT burden (see Specifications
on page 2–6). The 469 measures up to 25 A of primary ground current if this tap is used in
conjunction with the GE Multilin core balance CT.
Note
The zero-sequence connection is recommended. Unequal saturation of CTs, size and
location of motor, resistance of power system and motor core saturation density, etc.,
may cause false readings in the residually connected GF circuit.
Note
Only one ground input should be wired – the other input should be unconnected.
The exact placement of a zero-sequence CT to detect only ground fault current is shown
below. If the core balance CT is placed over shielded cable, capacitive coupling of phase
current into the cable shield during motor starts may be detected as ground current unless
the shield wire is also passed through the CT window. Twisted pair cabling on the zerosequence CT is recommended.
3–14469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–15
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
Differential Current Inputs
The 469 has three channels for differential current inputs, each with an isolating
transformer. There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. Each
differential CT circuit is shorted by automatic mechanisms on the 469 case if the unit is
withdrawn. The maximum differential CT primary current is 5000 A.
The 469 measures up to 5 A secondary current for the differential CT inputs. Since the
conversion range is relatively small, the 1 A or 5 A option is field programmable. Proper
selection of this settings ensures proper reading of primary phase differential current. The
1 A / 5 A differential CT chosen must be capable of driving the 469 differential CT burden
(see Specifications on page 2–6 for ratings).
The differential CTs may be core balance as shown in the first figure below. Alternatively,
the summation of two CTs per phase into the differential input will provide a larger zone of
protection. If the summation of two CTs is used, observation of CT polarity is important. The
summation method may also be implemented using the phase CTs as shown below. They
will have to have the same CT ratio.

CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
FIGURE 3–18: Summation Method with Phase CTs
FIGURE 3–19: Summation Method without Phase CTs
3.2.5Voltage Inputs
The 469 has three channels for AC voltage inputs, each with an isolating transformer.
There are no internal fuses or ground connections on the voltage inputs. The maximum VT
ratio is 300.00:1. The two VT connections are open delta (see FIGURE 3–12: Typical Wiring Diagram on page 3–11) or wye (see below). The voltage channels are connected in wye
internally, which means that the jumper shown on the delta-source connection of the
typical wiring diagram, between the phase B input and the 469 neutral terminal, must be
installed for open delta VTs.
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–17
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
Polarity of the VTs is critical for correct power measurement and voltage phase reversal
operation.
A 1 A fuse is typically used to protect the inputs.
FIGURE 3–20: Wye Voltage Transformer Connection
3.2.6Digital Inputs
Note
The digital inputs of the 469 relay are designed for dry contact connection. In an
application where the contact inputs need to be connected to the 469 relay digital inputs
using long cable, it is recommended that you use interposing auxiliary contacts to
interface between the 469 relay and the long digital input cable. This will help prevent the
relay falsely sensing the digital input as "closed" due to induced voltage on the cables as a
result of the capacitive effect. It is recommended that you use shielded twisted pair wires
grounded at one end only, for digital inputs and avoid locating these wires in close to
current carrying cables, contactors or other sources of high EMI.
DO NOT INJECT VOLTAGES TO DIGITAL INPUTS. DRY CONTACT CONNECTIONS ONLY.
There are 9 digital inputs designed for dry contact connections only. Two of the digital
inputs (Access and Test) have their own common terminal; the balance of the digital inputs
share one common terminal (see FIGURE 3–12: Typical Wiring Diagram on page 3–11).
3–18469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
3.2.7Analog Inputs
In addition, the +24 V DC switch supply is brought out for control power of an inductive or
capacitive proximity probe. The NPN transistor output could be taken to one of the
assignable digital inputs configured as a counter or tachometer. Refer to Specifications on
page 2–6 for maximum current draw from the +24 V DC switch supply.
The 469 provides terminals for four 0 to 1mA, 0 to 20mA, or 4 to 20mA current input signals
(field programmable). This current signal can be used to monitor external quantities such
as vibration, pressure, or flow. The four inputs share one common return. Polarity of these
inputs must be observed for proper operation The analog input circuitry is isolated as a
group with the analog output circuitry and the RTD circuitry. Only one ground reference
should be used for the three circuits. Transorbs limit this isolation to ±36 V with respect to
the 469 safety ground.
In addition, the +24 V DC analog input supply is brought out for control power of loop
powered transducers. Refer to Specifications on page 2–6 for maximum current draw from
this supply.
FIGURE 3–21: Loop Powered Transducer Connection
3.2.8Analog Outputs
The 469 provides 4 analog output channels which may be ordered to provide a full-scale
range of either 0 to 1 mA (into a maximum 10 kΩ impedance) or 4 to 20 mA (into a
maximum 1200 Ω impedance). Each channel can be configured to provide full-scale
output sensitivity for any range of any measured parameter.
As shown in FIGURE 3–12: Typical Wiring Diagram on page 3–11, these outputs share one
common return. Polarity of these outputs must be observed for proper operation. Shielded
cable should be used, with only one end of the shield grounded, to minimize noise effects.
The analog output circuitry is isolated as a group with the Analog Input circuitry and the
RTD circuitry. Only one ground reference should be used for the three circuits. Transorbs
limit this isolation to ±36 V with respect to the 469 safety ground.

Description
The 469 monitors up to 12 RTD inputs for Stator, Bearing, Ambient, or Other temperature
monitoring. The type of each RTD is field programmable as 100 Ω Platinum (DIN 43760),
100 Ω Nickel, 120 Ω Nickel, or 10 Ω Copper. RTDs must be three wire type. Every two RTDs
shares a common return.
The RTD circuitry compensates for lead resistance, provided that each of the three leads is
the same length. Lead resistance should not exceed 25 Ω per lead for platinum/nickel
RTDs or 3 Ω per lead for copper RTDs. Shielded cable should be used to prevent noise
pickup in the industrial environment. RTD cables should be kept close to grounded metal
casings and away from areas of high electromagnetic or radio interference. RTD leads
should not be run adjacent to or in the same conduit as high current carrying wires.

IMPORTANT: The RTD circuitry is isolated as a group with the Analog Input circuitry and
the Analog Output circuitry. Only one ground reference should be used for the three
circuits. Transorbs limit this isolation to ±36 V with respect to the 469 safety ground.
Reduced RTD Lead Number Application
The 469 requires three leads to be brought back from each RTD: Hot, Return and
Compensation. This can be quite expensive. It is however possible to reduce the number of
leads required to 3 for the first RTD and 1 for each successive RTD. Refer to the figure below
for wiring configuration for this application.

The Hot line would have to be run as usual for each RTD. The Compensation and Return
leads, however, need only be run for the first RTD. At the motor RTD terminal box, the RTD
Return leads must be jumpered together with as short as possible jumpers. The
Compensation leads must be jumpered together at the 469.
Note that an error is produced on each RTD equal to the voltage drop across the jumper on
the RTD return. This error increases with each successive RTD added.

This error is directly dependent on the length and gauge of the wire used for the jumpers
and any error introduced by a poor connection. For RTD types other than 10 Ω Copper, the
error introduced by the jumpers is negligible. Although this RTD wiring technique reduces
the cost of wiring, the following disadvantages must be noted:
1.There will be an error in temperature readings due to lead and connection resistances.
This technique is NOT recommended for 10 Ω Copper RTDs.
2.If the RTD Return lead to the 469 or any of the jumpers break, all RTDs from the point
of the break will read open.
3.If the Compensation lead or any of the jumpers break, all RTDs from the point of the
break will function without any lead compensation.
Two-Wire RTD Lead Compensation
An example of how to add lead compensation to a two wire RTD may is shown in the figure

FIGURE 3–24: 2-Wire RTD Lead Compensation
The compensation lead L2 is added to compensate for Hot (L1) and Return (L3), assuming
they are all of equal length and gauge. To compensate for leads RL1 and RL2, a resistor
equal to the resistance of RL1 or RL2 could be added to the compensation lead, though in
many cases this is unnecessary.
RTD Grounding
Grounding of one lead of the RTDs is done at either the 469 or at the motor. Grounding
should not be done in both places as it could cause a circulating current. Only RTD Return
leads may be grounded. When grounding at the 469, only one Return lead need be
grounded as they are hard-wired together internally. No error is introduced into the RTD
reading by grounding in this manner.
If the RTD Return leads are tied together and grounded at the motor, only one RTD Return
lead can be run back to the 469. See the figure below for a wiring example. Running more
than one RTD Return lead to the 469 causes significant errors as two or more parallel
paths for the return current have been created. Use of this wiring scheme causes errors in
readings equivalent to that in the Reduced RTD Lead Number application described earlier.
FIGURE 3–25: RTD Alternate Grounding
3.2.10 Output Relays
There are six (6) Form-C output relays (see Specifications on page 2–6 for details). Five of
the six relays are always non-failsafe; 6 SERVICE is always failsafe. As failsafe, the
6 SERVICE relay is normally energized and de-energizes when called upon to operate. It
also de-energizes when 469 control power is lost and will be in its operated state. All other
3–22469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
relays, being non-failsafe, will normally be de-energized and energize when called upon to
operate. When the 469 control power is lost, these relays are de-energized and in their
non-operated state. Shorting bars in the drawout case ensure that no trip or alarm occurs
when the 469 is drawn out. However, the 6 SERVICE output will indicate that the 469 has
been drawn out. Each output relay has an LED indicator on the front panel that turns on
when the associated relay is in the operated state.
Relay contacts must be considered unsafe to touch when the 469 is energized! If the
output relay contacts are required for low voltage accessible applications, it is the
customer's responsibility to ensure proper insulation levels.
•1TRIP: The trip relay should be wired to take the motor off line when conditions
warrant. For a breaker application, the normally-open 1 TRIP contact should be wired
in series with the Breaker trip coil. For contactor applications, the normally-closed
1 TRIP contact should be wired in series with the contactor coil.
Supervision of a breaker trip coil requires that the supervision circuit be in parallel with
the 1 TRIP relay output contacts. With this connection made, the supervision input
circuits place an impedance across the contacts that draws a 2 mA current (for an
external supply voltage from 30 to 250 V DC) through the breaker trip coil. The
supervision circuits respond to a loss of this trickle current as a failure condition.
Circuit breakers equipped with standard control circuits have a breaker auxiliary
contact permitting the trip coil to be energized only when the breaker is closed. When
these contacts are open, as detected by the Starter Status Digital Input monitoring
breaker auxiliary contacts, trip coil supervision circuit is automatically disabled. This
logic allows the trip circuit to be monitored only when the breaker is closed.
•2 AUXILIARY, 3 AUXILIARY: The auxiliary relays may be programmed for trip echo,
alarm echo, trip backup, alarm differentiation, control circuitry, and numerous other
functions. They should be wired as configuration warrants.
•4ALARM: The alarm relay should connect to the appropriate annunciator or
monitoring device.
•5BLOCKSTART: This relay should be wired in series with the start pushbutton in either
a breaker or contactor configuration to prevent motor starting. When a trip has not
been reset on a breaker, the block start relay prevents a start attempt that would
result in an immediate trip. Any lockout functions are also directed to the block start
relay.
•6SERVICE: The service relay operates if any of the 469 diagnostics detect an internal
failure or on loss of control power. This output may be monitored with an annunciator,
PLC or DCS. If it is deemed that a motor is more important than a process, the service
relay normally-closed contact may also be wired in parallel with the trip relay on a
breaker application or the normally-open contact may be wired in series with the trip
relay on a contactor application. This will provide failsafe operation of the motor; that
is, the motor will be tripped off line in the event that the 469 is not protecting it. If
however, the process is critical, annunciation of such a failure will allow the operator
or the operation computer to either continue, or do a sequenced shutdown. See the
following figure for details.
469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL3–23
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
3.2.11 Drawout Indicator
The Drawout Indicator is simply a jumper from terminals E12 to F12. When the 469 is
withdrawn from the case, terminals E12 and F12 are open. This may be useful for
differentiating between loss of control power as indicated by the 6 SERVICE relay and
withdrawal of the unit.
3.2.12 RS485 Communications Ports
Two independent two-wire RS485 ports are provided. Up to 32 469s can be daisy-chained
together on a communication channel without exceeding the driver capability. For larger
systems, additional serial channels must be added. Commercially available repeaters can
also be used to add more than 32 relays on a single channel. Suitable cable should have a
characteristic impedance of 120 Ω (e.g. Belden #9841) and total wire length should not
exceed 4000 ft. Commercially available repeaters will allow for transmission distances
greater than 4000 ft.
Voltage differences between remote ends of the communication link are not uncommon.
For this reason, surge protection devices are internally installed across all RS485 terminals.
Internally, an isolated power supply with an optocoupled data interface is used to prevent
noise coupling.
FIGURE 3–26: Alternate Wiring for Contactors
Note
To ensure that all devices in a daisy-chain are at the same potential, it is imperative
that the common terminals of each RS485 port are tied together and grounded only
once, at the master. Failure to do so may result in intermittent or failed
communications.
3–24469 MOTOR MANAGEMENT RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION
The source computer/PLC/SCADA system should have similar transient protection devices
installed, either internally or externally, to ensure maximum reliability. Ground the shield at
one point only, as shown in the figure below, to avoid ground loops.
Correct polarity is also essential. The 469s must be wired with all the ‘+’ terminals
connected together and all the ‘–’ terminals connected together. Each relay must be daisychained to the next one. Avoid star or stub connected configurations. The last device at
each end of the daisy chain should be terminated with a 120 Ω ¼-watt resistor in series
with a 1 nF capacitor across the ‘+’ and ‘–’ terminals. Observing these guidelines provides a
reliable communication system immune to system transients.
3.2.13 Dielectric Strength
It may be required to test a complete motor starter for dielectric strength (“flash” or “hipot”)
with the 469 installed. The 469 is rated for 1.9 kV AC for 1 second, or 1.6 kV AC for 1 minute
(per UL 508) isolation between relay contacts, CT inputs, VT inputs, trip coil supervision, and
the safety ground terminal G12. Some precautions are required to prevent damage to the
469 during these tests.
Filter networks and transient protection clamps are used between control power, trip coil
supervision, and the filter ground terminal G11. This is intended to filter out high voltage
transients, radio frequency interference (RFI), and electromagnetic interference (EMI). The
filter capacitors and transient suppressors may be damaged by continuous high voltage.
Disconnect the filter ground terminal G11 during testing of control power and trip coil
supervision. The CT inputs, VT inputs, and output relays do not require any special
precautions. Low voltage inputs (less than 30 V), RTDs, analog inputs, analog outputs,
digital inputs, and RS485 communication ports are not to be tested for dielectric strength
under any circumstance (see below).

may be used for security). There is also a settings passcode feature that restricts access to
settings. The passcode must be entered to allow the changing of settings values. A
passcode of “0” effectively turns off the passcode feature - in this case only the access
jumper is required for changing settings. If no key is pressed for 5 minutes, access to
settings values will be restricted until the passcode is entered again. To prevent settings
access before the 5 minutes expires, the unit may be turned off and back on, the access

faceplate keypad and display (see the first section in this chapter).
The EnerVista 469 Setup software provides a single facility to configure, monitor, maintain,
and trouble-shoot the operation of relay functions, connected over serial communication
networks. It can be used while disconnected (i.e. off-line) or connected (i.e. on-line) to a 469
device. In off-line mode, Settings files can be created for eventual downloading to the
device. In on-line mode, you can communicate with the device in real-time.
