1. DESCRIPTION
The MK232A is microprocessor based numerical earth-fault relay. It uses fundamental frequency current measurement for excellent harmonic current rejection. The relay consists of independent low-set and high-set elements. The high-set element can be disabled by the user. The time current characteristics of the low set element are definite time or five selectable IDMT curves. The high-set element is a definite time or instantaneous relay. The 4-digit panel display on the MK232A allows the display of the present load current; recorded fault current for last tripping; and all settings of the relay.
2. LIGHT INDICATORS
The indicators display the status of the system as follow:
Indicator Aux 0 1 1 1 1 1 1 l> l>> FUNC DT Status 0 0 0 0 No Auxiliary power supply. 0 0 X X Normal condition, no tripping. 1 0 X X Low-set overcurrent triggered, time delay countdown started. 0 1 X X High-set overcurrent triggered, time delay countdown started. B 0 B B Low-set tripped, DT LEDs show tripped value. 0 X B X B B B 1 High-set tripped, DT LEDs show tripped value. Programming mode.
Step 1: Press RESET key until the function digit shows required function. Step 2: Press the UP simultaneously to mode. The function indicates the relay
and DOWN key enter programming digit will blinks to is in programming
Step 3: Use the UP or DOWN key to select the desired value. Step 4: To save the selected value, press the UP and DOWN key simultaneously again. It will exit the programming mode with the data digits displaying new setting. To exit programming mode without saving the selected setting, press the RESET key once.
4. OUTPUT CONTACTS
The MK232A has two set of output contact: (i) CONTACT R1 - linked to trip signal. (i) CONTACT R2 - linked to trip or start signal. The output contact can be programmed to be either auto reset type or manual reset type. For auto reset type, the contact remain activated until the fault current is removed. For manual reset type, the contact remain activated.
Indicator FUNCTION . 0 0 4 5 6 7 8
Note:
DATA Earth fault current. Previous tripped current. Low-set current setting. Time multiplier/delay time setting. High-set current setting. High-set delay time setting. Soft switch setting.
5. SOFT SWITCHES
The MK232A incorporates 4 soft switches for system configuration. When the function digit shows 8, the relay is in soft switch setting mode.
3. PUSH-BUTTONS OPERATION
a) Trip test Press the TEST button to simulate a trip
b) Trip reset Press the RESET button to reset the relay when tripped. c) View setting When the relay is not under tripped condition, pressing the RESET button will scroll through the various functions.
Figure 1: Scroll sequence d) Program setting Only function codes from 4 to 8 can be programmed.
