1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 MOTOR PROTECTION REQUIREMENTS
Three phase AC motors have become the workhorse of mod-
ern industry. Although motors are generally reliable devices,
many different causes ranging from abnormal conditions to op-
erator abuse can result in premature failure.Newer motors also
tend to be designed much closer to the normal operation limits
allowing less margin for abuse.
Sophisticated electronic relays are now normally used on large
high voltage motors to protect against a wide range of possible
fault conditions. High cost has precluded the use of these re-
lays on less expensive motors. In these applications, a simple
thermal overload is usually used.While inexpensive, these de-
vices only give limited protection under one type of fault condi-
tion — overloads.
The PROTECT 4A relay is designed to provide protection
against the four main causes of motor failure: overloads, single
phasing, ground faults (earth leakage) and overheating (ther-
mistor sensing).The Protect 4A relay is economical enough in
price that it can be used with low and medium voltage motors,
bridging the gap between expensive, sophisticated relays and
economical thermal overloads which are of limited effectiveness.
While no relay can prevent normal wear on the motor, the Pro-
tect 4A has been optimized to give maximum motor life without
unnecessary production shutdown from overprotection.Controls
are simple and self explanatory for ease of use.
Current sensing is achieved through the use of separate phase
and ground fault CTs connected directly to the PROTECT 4A
relay.Three 5 amp or 1 amp secondary CTs are used to sense
motor phase currents. The three phase current wires pass
through the window of a 2000:1 CT for ground fault sensing.

1.2 PROTECT 4A FEATURES
A microcomputer housed in a rugged, industrial package al-
lows the Protect 4A to provide accurate, economical protection
in a unit that will outlast the life of the motor. Since many new
factories are using programmable controllers as automation in-
creases, a 4-20mA output of motor current is also provided elimi-
nating the need for an additional transducer.This output gives
a direct reading of motor current.
Fault diagnosis after a trip is displayed on front panel indica-
tors. This will allow operators and electricians to rapidly isolate
and correct problems. It is possible to verify correct operation
of an installed Protect 4A relay to ensure that the motor protec-
tion is functioning properly.
One Protect 4A relay is required per motor. Phase and ground
fault currents are monitored through current transformers so that
motors of any line voltage can be protected.The relay is used
as a pilot device to cause a contactor or breaker to open under
fault conditions;that is, it does not carry the primary motor cur-
rent. Figure 1-1 shows how the Protect 4A is connected into a
system for complete motor protection.

1.3 TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
Versatile features make the Protect 4A an ideal choice in a wide
range of motor applications.It should be considered for these
and other typical uses:
1) Basic protection on low and medium voltage motors. The
lowest horsepower selected for protection in an installa-
tion will depend on frequency of motor failure.
2)
Protection of motors and equipment from operator abuse
3) Personnel safety from shock hazard using sensitive ground
fault settings to detect winding shorts or leakage current
from moisture in mines.
4) Fault indication of ground fault without shutdown to warn
that corrective maintenance is required.
5) Mechanical protection of gears, pumps, fans, saw mills, cut-
ters and compressors against mechanical jam.
6) Simplified spare parts stocking using one universal model
to cover all motor sizes and settings.
7) Output of motor current suitable for programmable controller
interface (4–20mA).
The motor phase currents are sensed by 3 conventional 1 amp
or 5 amp secondary current transformers (CTs). If ground fault
sensing is required then a separate zero sequence ground fault
CT, through which all 3 phase conductors pass, is required.This
CT is available in 2 sizes:HGF-3 (3½" diameter window) or HGF-
5 (5½" diameter window).
Note: Ground fault sensing only works on systems that are solid
or resistance grounded. Ungrounded systems require an artifi-
cial ground, through the use of a zigzig transformer, for ground
fault sensing to work.

Any standard 5 amp secondary 5 VA or greater CT can be
used. 3 phase CTs per PROTECT 4A are required. 1 amp

2. INSTALLATION
2.1 PHYSICAL DIMENSIONS
Dimensions of the Protect 4A relay and mounting components
are shown in fig.2-1.Both the clear cover and the terminal board
are detachable from the relay.The case is made of rugged plastic
with a clear cover for viewing indicators and control settings.
Phase CTs with 1 amp or 5 amp secondaries should be used.
These can be standard CTs which are user supplied. Dimen-
sions for CTs available from Multilin are shown in figure 2.2. If
zero sequence ground fault detection is required, the appropri-
ate ground fault CT shown in figure 2-3 must be installed.
