Description
The FPS Feeder Protection System monitors voltage
and current to provide a comprehensive package of
17 protective functions. The FPS is a modular system
with integrated protection, breaker control, metering,
and data-logging functions.

Phase Current Transformers
Phase CTs are required to detect phase
currents.
Ground-Fault Current Transformer
Zero-sequence current transformer detects
ground-fault current. Available with 5-A
and 30-A primary ratings for low-level pickup.
MPS-RTD Temperature Input Module
Optional module provides 8 inputs to connect
Pt100, Ni100, Ni120, and Cu10 RTDs.
SE-IP65CVR-M Cover
Optional gasketed, transparent cover for
limited access and IP65 protection for an
Operator Interface Module.

Features & Benefits
FEATURES IEEE # BENEFITS
Overload 49, 51
Inverse-time overcurrent 50, 51 Coordination using IEEE and IEC Curves
Definite-time overcurrent 50, 51 Instantaneous overcurrent to detect catastrophic failure
Current unbalance/
Phase loss/Phase reverse
46 Detects an open or high-impedance phase
Ground fault 50G/N, 51G/N Inverse and definite time. Early insulation-failure detection.
RTD temperature 38, 49 Optional protection (MPS-RTD module) for load-temperature monitoring
Overvoltage 59 Limits stress to insulation
Undervoltage 27 Detects a damaging brown-out condition
Voltage unbalance
47 Detects unhealthy supply voltage
Two setting groups
Breaker control Allows local and remote operation; reduces component count
Metering Displays the measured and calculated parameters
Data logging On-board 64-event recorder helps with system diagnosis
Communications Remotely view measured values, event records, & reset trips
Conformal coating Internal circuits are conformally coated to protect against corrosion and moisture
Long-time overcurrent provides thermal protection for feeder or load
Minimizes Arc-Flash hazards during maintenance
