Description
The T2600 Dual-Current Relay combines two current relays.
The function of the unit is to start or stop the standby diesel
generator according to the load situation. Current is measured
as a single phase measurement in each of the generators. Both
relays will respond to the highest of the currents, independent
of phase angle.
Starting signal: The starting output relay is controlled by the
high level start current relay (0.3-1.2 x I
of 3-30 seconds. If one of the 3 input currents exceeds the
) with a time delay
N
current setting for a longer period than the time setting, the
output relay will become deactivated.
Stopping signal: The low level current relay (0.2-0.8 x I
controls a time delay (1-10 minutes) which again controls the
stop output relay. If all input currents are lower than the current
setting for a longer period than the time delay setting of
1-10 minutes, the output relay will be activated.
