Temporary Relay Controlled Fuse Group Data

This dialog box includes the following areas and tabs:

Connection Information

Figure 1: Connection Information

This tab lists connection information for the functional group. See Relay Controlled Fuse Groups and Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Option Description

ID Name

Uniquely identifies the relay controlled fuse group. This name can be up to 16 characters long. The names default to RCFG-1, RCFG-2, RCFG-3, and so on, as you enter new groups on the one-line, but you can change those names to make them more descriptive if needed.

Group Name

The name of the relay controlled fuse group, which comes from the ID Name for the group. This name appears as a reference in the data dialog boxes of other required equipment items in the group.

Group Type

The type of relay controlled fuse group. This type appears as a reference in the data dialog boxes of other required equipment items in the group.

Relay Tab

This tab lists relay information for the functional group. See Relay Controlled Fuse Groups and Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Figure 2: Relay Tab

Option Description

System

Relay

The manufacturer for the relay.

CT Name

The name of the current transformer (CT) in the functional group.

Plot TCC

Indicates whether the relay information should be plotted on the TCC.

Function ID

The function ID for the relay function.

Device Function

The device function for the relay. See Relay Device Functions for information about device functions.

View Notes

Click to view notes recorded in the library for the device. Information may include data sheets or manufacturer's information for the device or assumptions needed to model the device.

Instantaneous

Instantaneous Range

Provides a list of ranges of instantaneous pickup values applicable to the relay. The Instantaneous settings available depend on the Instantaneous Range selected.

Instantaneous Settings

The instantaneous pickup setting.

Instantaneous Amps

The instantaneous pickup current.

Time Delay (Sec)

Time delay for instantaneous trip.

Fuse Tab

This tab lists fuse information for the functional group. See Relay Controlled Fuse Groups and Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Figure 3: Fuse Tab

Option Description

Mfr

The manufacturer for the fuse.

Type

Fused switch types available from the manufacturer chosen in the Mfr field above. For a fuse to be available to a relay controlled functional group, it must be set up correctly in the device library. See Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Style

Fused switch styles available from the type chosen in the Type field above. For a fuse to be available to a relay controlled functional group, it must be set up correctly in the device library. See Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Find Style

Enables you to search the library for a fuse style.

Model

Fused switch model available from the style chosen in the Style field above. For a fuse to be available to a relay controlled functional group, it must be set up correctly in the device library. See Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Library kV

Choose the section of the library the fuse data is entered. In most cases, the selected Library kV is approximately the base kV of the fuse. For LV fuses, this field is blank.

Size

This field enables you to view available sizes of the fuse model that you have selected and select a specific size.

View Notes

Click to view notes about the fused switch. You must first select a manufacturer, type, and style. The notes come from the device library.

Short Circuit Tab

This tab lists short circuit information for the functional group. See Relay Controlled Fuse Groups and Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Figure 4: Short Circuit Tab

Option Description
TCC Clipping You can clip the time current curve (TCC) for the breaker at the specified current in kA for Momentary (1/2 cycle), 5-cycle or 30-cycle. Select <None> to avoid clipping of the TCC.
SC Tick Marks

Select the appropriate check boxes to display the tick mark on the TCC plot. You can display Momentary, Interrupting and 30 Cycle short circuit values. Enter the corresponding short circuit values in kA in their respective edit fields for phase short circuit.

Note: These settings are only used if User-Specified is selected in Coordination Options > General > Default TCC Short Circuit Currents. Otherwise, the values are automatically calculated.

Default Phase SC Values

The short circuit values entered in kA in these fields can be displayed for phase currents on TCC plots.

Note: These settings are only used if User-Specified is selected in Coordination Options > General > Default TCC Short Circuit Currents. Otherwise, the values are automatically calculated.

Appearance Tab

This tab lists appearance information for the combined relay and fuse curve in the functional group. See Relay Controlled Fuse Groups and Relay Controlled Fuse Group Settings for more information.

Figure 5: Appearance Tab

Option Description

Curve

Select the Style, Color, and Weight for the curve. This controls how the combined relay and fuse TCC curve appears when you plot the TCC.

Fill

Select the Fill Color, Fill Pattern, and Pattern Color for the curve. This controls how the combined relay and fuse TCC curve appears when you plot the TCC.
