1. INTRODUCTION
1.1. Description
y

EVRC2A with the microprocessor-based digital control technology is designed to provide


protective coordination and fault clearance of distribution systems for the continuous best
quality of electric service.

Remote monitoring and control can be provided by RTU(Remote Terminal Unit - Option)
which fundamentally installed.

In order to perform the protection function, line voltage and current signal filtered with
analog filter and digital DFT full-cosin filter is used.

EVRC2A provides protection, control, and monitoring functions with both local and remote.
It also displays the present trip/alarm conditions, and measured system parameters.

Recording of past trip, alarm or control events, maximum demand levels, and energy
metering is also performed.

Users can operate Close and Trip, and also control EVRC2A with key buttons on the user
interface panel; Protection Enabled, Ground Enabled, SEF Enabled, Reclose Enabled,
Control Locked, Remote enabled, Alternate-settings, Program 1, Program 2, Hot line tag.

Users can manage the Recloser interface software using a portable PC for modification of
settings, acquisition of event data, and management of operation history.

EVRC2A contains many T-C characteristic curves developed by IEEE C37.112, IEC255-3,
McGraw Edison, and KEPCO to provide fully protective coordination for the continuous
best quality of electric distribution. Users can select any time of current curve simply by
programming and modifying.

5.2.4. RTU Communication Setup (DIALUP MODEM) - Option


EVRC2A can support dial-up modem communication, Hayes-compatible, through Port2 and
Port3 when their port types are both RS232.
The configuration of the Port2 for use of dial-up modem can be set on the menu DIALUP
MODEM-1. For the configuration of the Port3, it can be set on the menu DIALUP MODEM2. Refer to 5.2.4.4. Dialup Modem Setup for more information about the configuration of
Port2 and Port3 for the dial-up modem communication.

5.2.4.1. Configure modem with AT commands


Before using Modem connected with EVRC2A, following setting shall be confirmed.
Configure port speed(must be done)
Set DNP communication speed the same as the speed between EVRC2A and Modem, and set
DNP communication speed slower than the speed between modems.
Configure answer mode(frequently)
The modem will answer an incoming call on the second ring using the command ATS0=2.
Configure Data Carrier Detect(must be done)
Data Carrier Detect should follow the presence or absence of a calling modem.
The AT command is AT&C1.
Configure Data Terminal Ready(must be done)
Data Terminal Ready should control the modem. If DTR is high, the modem is ready to receive
calls. If DTR is low, the modem should not receive any more calls and should hang up any
existing call.
The AT command is AT&D2.
Configure Data Set Ready(must be done)
Data Set Ready should verify the modem. DSR is always ON.
The AT command is AT&S0.

ENHANCED TECHNOLOGY

Configure no CONNECT messages(must be done)


A Hayes AT-style modem usually outputs a message when a call is received. For example:

CONNECT 9600
The modem has a "quiet mode" that disables these messages.
The AT command is ATQ1. There will be no OK printed in response to this command.
Configure no echo of commands(must be done)
Echoing commands can confuse the console, so turn off command echoing.
The AT command is ATE0.
Configure silent connection(must be done)
Most modems have a speaker. By default this is connected whilst a modem is connecting and
negotiating a common protocol and speed. This is very useful for a dialing modem, as it prevents
a human being accidentally repeatedly called. The speaker can be annoying on answering
modems.
The AT command is ATM1.

6.1. Current Sensing


6.1.1. Description
This Setting group is critical for all over-current protection features that have settings specified
in multiples of CT rating. When the relay is ordered, the phase, ground, and sensitive ground CT
inputs must be specified as 1 Amp.
As the phase CTs are connected in wye (star), the calculated phasor sum of the three phase
currents (Ia + Ib + Ic = Neutral Current = 3 I0) is used as the input for the neutral over-current. In
addition, a zero-sequence (core balance) CT which senses current in all of the circuit primary
conductors, or a CT in a neutral grounding conductor may also be used. For this configuration,
the ground CT primary rating must be entered. To detect low level ground fault currents, the
sensitive earth input may be used. In this case, the sensitive ground CT primary rating must be
entered.
For additional details on CT connections, refer to (see 13.12. Current Inputs Wiring Diagram).

6.2.3. Setting Examples


Use of VD(CVD or RVD)
Case of VD(CVD or RVD) installed in Recloser, setup as follows;
Usable in Wye connection. Set VT2nd(v) 100 as Default.
PT Ratio is calculated as below.
Voltage- = Voltage-N SQRT(3)
Voltage-N = VT 2nd(v) VT Ratio
Hence,
15- = 8.66-N, therefore 8.66-N = 55.5(V) 155.9
If user line voltage between phases (Voltage-) is 11, set VT2nd(v) of 40.7V and set VT Ratio
of 155.9 (11- => 6.35-N, 6.35 = 40.7(V) 155.9)
27- = 15.59-N, therefore 15.59-N = 100(V) 155.9
38- = 21.94-N, therefore 21.94-N = 140.7(V) 155.9
Use of External PT by User
Line is Wye connection type and has V- = 15. If external rated PT is 14400 : 120, then VT
Ratio is 14400/120. Because of 15- = 8.66-N, VT2nd(v) is 8.66-N / 120 = 71.2V
Line with Delta connection type and has V-= 15. If external rated PT is 14400 : 120, then
VT Ratio is 14400/120 and VT2nd(v) is 15- / 120 = 125V

6.8. Loop Control - Option


The purpose of using LOOP CONTROL is to isolate a fault area and protect the normal
operation area by coordinating with C/B or Recloser when a fault occurs.
Loop control is able to provide automation system with using Sectionalizing Recloser, MID
point Recloser, TIE point Recloser.
Loop control is performed by voltage sensing of DV(Dead Line Voltage), LV(Live Line Voltage).
Sectionalizing Recloser(SEC)
When a fault is occurred from the source side of Sectionalizing Recloser and backup C/B
operates, the line becomes DV and if it continues, it is figured as a permanent fault. Hence,
Sectionalizing Recloser is opened. After Sectionalizing Recloser is opened and TIEpoint
Recloser is closed, the current flows in opposite way. Therefore, the load side of Sectionalizing
Recloser can keep the live line. When Load side of Sectionalizing Recloser has a fault, OCR
Function is operated and the load side is disconnected.
MIDpoint Recloser(MID)
When a fault is occurred in the source side of MIDpoint Recloser and backup C/B or
Sectionalizing Recloser operates, the line becomes DV status and if it continues, it is figured as a
permanent fault, then automatically the setting is changed to Alternate setting. After changed to
Alternate setting, when TIEpoint Recloser is closed, the current flows in opposite way. During
TIEpoint Recloser closed, when a fault occurs, MIDpoint Recloser trips once and lockouts. After
recovering the fault, connect C/B and when the line becomes LV, the setting is automatically
changed to Primary setting and MIDpoint Recloser is closed.
When Load side of MIDpoint Recloser gets a fault, OCR Function is operated and disconnects
the load side.

7.1. Reclose (79)


After a fault has occurred, the Reclose element closes the recloser when the programmed reclose
interval time expires. The number of operation lockout setting is programmed one to five, and
each reclose shot has its own separate reclose interval timer.
If the fault is permanent and the recloser continues to trip and reclose, the Reclose element will
continue to increment the operating counter. If this continues to the maximum number of the
operating lockout programmed in the Reclose element, the reclose logic lockouts.
If the fault is transient, then the reclose logic is reset by the reset logic.
The reclosing element can be disabled in the Primary, Alternate settings by one operating lockout
or by [RECLOSE ENABLED] push button on user interface panel.
The Reclose Element should be enabled to the following settings.

7.2. Phase (Fast/Delay) Time Overcurrents (51P)


The EVRC2A has two phase time overcurrent elements. The phase time overcurrent element
contained in the EVR2A, is set based on CT secondary current as connected to the current inputs.
The phase time overcurrent element is the most commonly used as a protective element for
distribution systems and also used in both down-line and back-up recloser protection. The phase
time overcurrent element provides a time delay versus current for tripping that is used for an
inverse time curve characteristic coordinated with current pickup value, curve type, time dial,
time adder, minimum response time setting and reset type. This inverse characteristic means that
time overcurrent element operates slowly on small values of current above the pickup value and
operates faster when current increases significantly above the pickup value. The phase time
overcurrent element is enabled in the Primary, Alternate settings and [PROTECTION
ENABLED] in user interface panel.
Multiple time curves and time dials are available for the phase time overcurrent element to
respectively coordinate with other protection elements in the EVRC2A and other external
devices on the distribution system. ANSI, IEC, ESB, USER and non-standard time current
curves are included in the EVRC2A.
A User Programmable curve option is also available for user to allow creating customs time
current curves for more enhanced coordination than the standard curve types.
The Reset type can be either instantaneous or linear. The phase time delay reset mode applies to
the ANSI, IEC, ESB, USER curves. The instantaneous mode is used to coordinate with other
instantaneous reset devices such as a recloser or other protective equipment on the distribution
system. In the instantaneous mode, the time overcurrent element will reset instantaneously when
the measured current level drops below the pickup setting for one cycle.
If the recloser is closed by pressing the CLOSE button on the front panel, or by an remote
control or via SCADA, the phase time overcurrent element is prevented from tripping for a
period specified by the Cold load pickup scheme.

Step

Overcurrent tripping time calculations are made with an internal energy


Capacity memory variable. When this variable indicates that the energy
capacity has reached 100%, a time overcurrent trip is generated. If less
than 100% is accumulated in this variable and the current falls below
the dropout threshold of the pickup value, the variable must be reduced.
Two methods of this resetting operation are available, Instantaneous
and Linear. The Instantaneous selection is intended for applications
with other relays, such as most static units, which set the energy
capacity directly to zero when the current falls below the reset
threshold. The Linear selection can be used where the relay must
coordinate with electromechanical units.

7.4. Sensitive Earth Fault (SEF)


The sensitive earth fault (SEF) is applicable to systems that have restricted current flow for phase
to earth fault. The SEF is not applicable to the case in 4 wire multi-earthed systems. The
sensitivity of SEF element for non-earthed systems is dependent upon available fault current and
the accuracy of CTs. For SEF element, EVRC2A has the separate SEF terminal on side panel.
This input can be connected in series with the provided phase CTs (standard) or connected to a
separate window type ZCT.
The SEF element provides a definite time delay versus current. The SEF element is enabled in
the Primary, Alternate settings and both [PROTECTION ENABLED] and [SEF ENABLED]
in user interface panel.
For user systems, a directional SEF is available. The directional control is polarized by a zero
sequence voltage(V0). The VD or PTs should be connected Wye-grounded.
The SEF element in the following three settings should be enabled.

7.5. Negative Sequence (Fast/Delay) Time Overcurrent (46)


The EVRC2A has two negative sequence time overcurrent elements. The negative sequence
element measures the amount of unbalance current in the system. The negative sequence
overcurrent element can also be used to detect phase to ground and two phase ground faults. The
negative sequence time overcurrent element provides a time delay versus current for tripping
using that an inverse time curve characteristic is operated to coordinate, current pickup value,
curve type, time dial, time adder, minimum response time setting, and reset type.
The negative sequence time overcurrent element is enabled in the Primary, Alternate settings and
[PROTECTION ENABLED] on user interface panel.
Multiple time curves and time dials are available for the negative sequence time overcurrent
element to closely coordinate with other protection elements in the EVRC2A and other external
devices on the distribution system.
The Reset type can be either instantaneous or linear. The negative sequence time delay reset
mode applies to the ANSI, IEC, ESB, USER curves. The instantaneous mode is used to
coordinate with other instantaneous reset devices such as a recloser or other protective
equipment on the distribution system. In the instantaneous mode, the time overcurrent element
will reset instantaneously when the measured current level drops below the pickup setting for
one cycle.
If the recloser is closed by pressing the CLOSE button on the front panel, or by an remote
control or via SCADA, the negative sequence time overcurrent element is prevented from
tripping for a period specified by the Cold load pickup scheme.

7.11. Negative Sequence High Current Lockout (46(50)-2)


The EVRC2A has a negative sequence high current lockout element. Negative sequence high
current lockout element in the EVRC2A is set based on CT secondary current as connected to the
current inputs. The negative sequence high current lockout element provides a definite time
delay characteristic versus current.
The negative sequence high current lockout element should be set equal to or faster than the
negative sequence high current trip element. The negative sequence high current lockout element
is enabled in the Primary, Alternate settings and [PROTECTION ENABLED] on user interface
panel.
Negative sequence high current lockout is not affected by the cold load pickup scheme.
The negative sequence high current lockout element in the following five settings should be
enabled for the negative sequence high current lockout.

7.12. Cold Load Pickup


The cold load pickup function is used to prevent the recloser from incorrectly operating caused
by the restoration of load supply or the cold load current of load side. EVRC2A provides
CLPU-Type 1 to prevent the recloser from operating wrong by instantaneous inrush current
occurring by the closing of device on a power line and CLPU-Type 2 to prevent protection
elements from operating wrong by the cold load current caused by applying voltage to a
transformer, a reactor or a long-distance line.

7.12.1. Cold Load Pickup Type 1


The settings of CLPU-Type 1 are separated and set respectively for phase, ground, SEF or
negative phase over current element.
In the state of the function to restrain the inrush current activated, the overcurrent protection
element will be operated under settings of CLPU-Type 1 function at the restoration of load
supply.
NOTE:
According to setting of Make use I, the condition to decide the restoration of load supply will
be changed. If YES is set, the decision is made when the load current becomes over 2A. If
NO is set, the decision is made when a recloser is closed (52A) by local or remote control.
When a distributed system is closed after long-time outage, the inrush current over overcurrent
pickup level may occur. At occurrence of the cold load pickup, EVRC2A increases the pickup
level of overcurrent element during a certain period of time, the Fast overcurrent protection
element is not operated and the Delay overcurrent protection element is always operated
regardless of the cold load pickup function. (The High Current Trip and High Current Lockout
are always operated regardless of the cold load pickup function)
If a fault occurs on distributed system, an overcurrent protection element is operated by the cold
load pickup function and a recloser becomes lockout after oneshot trip regardless of total number
of shots.
A power is lost and then after certain outage time, the algorithm of cold load pickup function is
applied at the restoration of load supply. If the Make use 1 is set to be YES, the algorithm

154

ENHANCED TECHNOLOGY

RECLOSER CONTROL EVRC2A-N6,NT

http://www.entecene.co.kr

is applied when a load current becomes 0 and then it is restored after certain outage time. If NO
is set, the algorithm is applied when a recloser is opened and then after certain outage time, the
recloser is closed manually. If the fault current over the cold load pickup level occurs, the
protection element by the cold load pickup function is operated immediately.
If the power loss (opening or load current loss) is sustained for a long time more than certain
outage time, the pickup current of time overcurrent element is changed to be the setting value of
the cold load pickup current. After the restoration of load supply (manually closing or restoration
of load current), protection functions are normally operated when the Restore minimum time
(RMT) is expired.

The setting to use the cold load pickup function is set to be ON (set to TRIP or TR&AR), the
cold load pickup level is preset and then the cold load pickup function is activated at manual
close or restoration of load current.
If the level of over current occurring at the restoration of load supply is over the cold load

If the over current is below cold load pickup current and overcurrent pickup current, protection
functions are not operated during a period of Restore minimum Time (RMT), (Refer the Inrush
Current 2 in Figure 7-5. The Restore Minimum Time Characteristic). After RMT, the
protection functions are operated. However, if the over current is dropped below overcurrent
pickup current during the RMT, the cold load pickup function is reset after reset time (Refer the

7.12.2. Cold Load Pickup Type 2


In the state of cold load, this type is used to restrain the operation of protection functions to over
current occurring by change of load (the close of a switch on long-distance line, incoming heavy
load etc.). This function to restrain protection functions rises or drops the pickup level of time
overcurrent element during certain time (E-CLP time) defined by a user.
Over Current Pickup Level Step Up
At power loss (a recloser is opened or a load current is 0A), the current of Over Current Pickup is
risen as follows.

Without Supply Time

Operational Cold Load Multi' = 1 +


( E CLP Multi' 1)
E CLP Time

As example, when E-CLP Multi and E-CLT Time are set to be 3.0 and 60min respectively, over
30 min after power loss, the applied cold load multiple is 2. If the minimum working currentis
set to be 200A, the current of Over Current Pickup becomes 400A, twice as much as the
minimum working current. In addition, after 60 min, the cold load multiple is fixed to be 3.
Over Current Pickup Level Step Down
If power is restored (manual closed or restoration of load current (over 2A)), the current of Over
Current Pickup is dropped with the same speed when rising until the cold load multiple becomes
1.
When E-CLP Multi and E-CLP Time are set to be 3.0 and 60 min respectively, the graph of the
cold load multiple in Figure 7-6. Cold Load Multipilier is shown as follows.
NOTE:
The risen level of overcurrent pickup by multiple of cold load is the pickup level to operate
overcurrent protection element. The standard current level of TC curve is a minimum working
current.

7.13. Directional Controls (67)


The directional Controls provide time protection in the direction of power flow. The directional
Controls are necessary for the protection of multiple feeders, when it has the necessity of finding
faults in different directions. The directional controls are composed of phase, neutral, sensitive
ground, and negative sequence overcurrent elements.
If directional controls are selected, it will determine whether current flow in each phase is in
forward or reverse direction, as determined by the connection of the phase CTs, selected
Maximum Torque Angle (MTA), voltage and current phasors. To increase security of all
directional controls, add one power frequency cycle of intentional delay to prevent incorrect
operation.
The directional controls have each three settings. The directional controls settings can be
different in the Primary and Alternate settings.
NOTE : In case of VD(CVD or RVD) type Recloser, EVRC2A only measures voltages
without checking directional elements.

7.13.1. Phase Directional Controls (67P)


The positive sequence voltage V1 provides the direction of phase pole in the power system.
The phase direction is determined as comparing the positive sequence voltage(V1) to the
direction of the positive sequence current(I1). The maximum torque angle is set between 0 to
359 degree.
The factory default value for maximum torque angle has a lead of 300 degree over V1.
If the polarized voltage drops below minimum polarized voltage, the phase direction control will
lose direction and will not trip. Then any fault on the distribution line may trip due to the phase
overcurrent element, which is non-directional.
The phase direction control can be programmed for non-direction or to provide a trip for current
flow in the forward or reverse direction only.

7.17.1. Sequence Coordination
When several Reclosers are connected in series to protect distribution systems, EVRC2A
contains Sequence Coordination feature which can prevent the simultaneous trip operations in
both of Back-up and Down-line Reclosers due to phase/ground fault. Sequence Coordination
feature is activated only if one out of several Down-line Reclosers connected to one Back-up
Recloser detects a fault current.
The following rules should be kept to activate Sequence Coordination feature.
1) The same characteristics of fast and delay operations in the total number of the trip
operations and identical basic Time Current Curves should be set for all Reclosers connected
in series.
2) The identical reclose interval time should be set for all Reclosers in series.
3) To coordinate the protection characteristics, an additional delay operation time (at least 100
ms) should be applied to the Time Current Curve characteristics of Back-up Recloser, not to
those of Down-line Reclosers.
4) The reset time of Back-up Recloser should be set longer than any reclose interval time of all
Down-line Reclosers. This setting will prevent the reset operation of Back-up Recloser
during the reclose operation of Down-lines.
The Sequence Coordination feature should be enabled to the following settings.

As shown in Figure 7-11. Sequence Coordination Operation Block Diagram, if Sequence


Coordination feature at Back-up Recloser is enabled and a phase/ground fault occurs in
distribution systems, the Back-up Recloser operates timing counter by overcurrent elements.
During the count at the Back-up Recloser, if the distribution system is restored to normal by
TRIP with Down-line Recloser, the number of the trip operations of Back-up Recloser is
increased one step.
Back-up Recloser performs trip operation instead of activating Sequence Coordination feature at
the last sequence of the full sequence. If Auto Reclose switch is set to one TRIP, Sequence
Coordination function cannot be operated.

7.18. Time Overcurrent Curves


The EVRC2A is equipped Standard ANSI/IEEE curves, IEC curves, ESB curves, user-defined
curves and all 37 non standard recloser curves are available.
A Configuration setting determines whether elements set to use ANSI/IEEE curves, IEC curves,
ESB curves, user-defined curves reset instantaneously, or corresponding with electromechanical.
The operation times and reset times refer to ANSI/IEEE C37.112 and IEC 255-3.
The operation times and reset times are defined as follows :
ANSI/IEEE
Trip Time(Sec) = TD ( ( / (M-1) + ) + TA)
IEC
Trip Time(Sec) = TD ( ( / (M-1)) + TA)
ESB
Trip Time(Sec) = TD ( ( / (M-1) + ) + TA)
USER-DEFINED
Trip Time(Sec) = TD ( ( / (M-1) + ) + TA)
Reset Time(Sec) = TD (Rt / (1-M2))

7.19. Loss of Phase - Option


EVRC2A has a loss of phase element. The element is provided for trip, alarm and control when
loss of phase is occurred. Loss of Phase can be turned on and off by Primary and Alternate
settings and is an optional element depending on the specification of EVRC2A.
If any phase voltage of source side becomes 110% higher than Loss of Phase level and one or
two phases voltage keeps lower than Loss of Phase for a certain period, circuit breaker
determines Loss of Phase.
The loss of phase element in the following four settings should be enabled for loss of phase.
PRIMARY SETTING / PROTECTION / LOSS OF PHASE / Function
[LOSS OF PHASE]
>Function:
OFF
Relays(0-8):
OFF
Pickup(xVT):
0.30

Range

OFF, TRIP, TR&AR

Default OFF

Step

If function = OFF, the feature is not operational.


If function = Trip, the feature is operational. When the feature asserts
a TRIP condition, Trip operates.
If function = Trip & AR, the feature is operational. When the feature
asserts a TRIP & AR condition, it trips and alarms.

PRIMARY SETTING / PROTECTION / LOSS OF PHASE / Relays(0-8)


[LOSS OF PHASE]
Function:

>Relays(0-8):
OFF
Pickup(xVT):

Default OFF

Step

Selects the required relays to operate when the feature generates a Trip.

8.2. Synchronism Check (25)


EVRC2A provides the manual close for the synchronism check element that synchronism
voltages are within the programmed differentials of voltage magnitude, phase angle position, and
frequency.
If this feature is enabled, the synchronism check will be performed before local/remote close
with the exception of automatic reclose for fault.
When either or both of the synchronism check voltages are de-energized, the synchronism check
can allow for local/remote close.
If EVRC2A is the type of VD, the synchronism check voltage input VL is connected to load
side(VR phase) in recloser. The other synchronizing phase can be connected for phase-neutral
voltage Vr, Vs or Vt; for phase-phase voltages Vab or Vcb. on load side in recloser.

8.6. Fault Locator


The fault locator calculates the distance to the fault. When fault occurs the magnitude and the
phase of voltage and current are varied, and then fault type(phase to ground, (phase to phase to
ground), phase to phase, three phase) can be determined by the analysis of these variations, and
fault distance can be calculated by the estimation of the apparent impedance.
This calculation is based on the assumptions that the feeder positive and zero sequence
impedance are a constant per unit distance and fault impedance is composed of pure resistance.
In calculating, errors could be introduced by several reasons(fault resistance etc.), the major error
due to fault resistance can be reduced by comparing the prefault current and voltage to the fault
current and voltage.
For more accurate calculation, the prefault data is required at least 2 cycles, and the after fault
data is required at least 2 cycles.
If the line impedance per unit and total length were known, the fault distance can be easily
achieved, but source impedance is not required.
Fault data may not be accurate for a close-into-fault condition where there is no prefault power
flow.
In case of closing, during a reclose sequence, the apparent distance of the first fault is very useful.
The algorithm for the fault locator is most applicable to a radial three-phase feeder.
Faulted distribution system is considered as following simplified Figure 8-1. Faulted
distribution system circuit for example.

turn NFB1 OFF without disconnecting Harness connector.

The self-discharge rate of batteries is approximately 3% per


month when batteries are stored at an ambient temperature of
+20(+68). The self-discharge rate varies with ambient
temperature.

The approximate depth of discharge or remaining capacity of an


battery can be empirically determined from Figure 13-20. Open

Figure 13-19. Battery

Circuit Voltage

Turn off NFB1 to disconnect Battery from circuits. Remove


Battery Connector CN11(3191-2R) and measure the battery
voltage.
If the battery voltage is less than 22.5Vdc, the residual capacity is
0%. The voltage can be recharged but requires maintenance.

24Vdc Battery supplies Relay Module and UPS Module through


NFB1(Battery Switch).
Relay Module supplies through CN4 Connector in Side Panel and
UPS Module supplies through P2 Connector of UPS Module.

13.22. Charge Circuit


Charger uses current-control-circuit to prevent sudden-recharge and use voltage-steady-circuit to
prevent over-recharge.
Charge inspection use 24Vac the same power as Relay Module has.
Disconnecting CN11 may cause spark, turn off NFB1(Battery Switch) and NFB2(Ac Power
switch) before disconnect CN11. Limit Current measuring should be tested on 10 in series with
CD Ammeter.
Charge Voltage : 27.5Vdc(0.5V)
Charge Current : 300mAdc(50mAdc)
NOTE : The battery charger is fully temperature compensated.
Battery charger capacity can be changed by request of a user.

13.23. Battery Change


Battery Mounting consists of two of Bolt M6-15L. Battery Wire consists of M5 Bolt & Nut and
is connected to Battery Terminal. Bolt can be replaced using with (+) screwdriver.
For Battery wire de-assembling, disconnect Jumper wire first and disconnect CN11 wire(red and
black). When CN11 is disconnected first, battery short is considered in case of workers mistake.
For Battery wire connection, connect CN11 wire (red and black) first and connect Jumper wire
later. Reference Figure 13-19. Battery

13.24. Battery Protection


Battery protection is to protect the battery from over-discharge by disconnecting the battery from
the control circuit when AC power is lost and before the battery is completely discharged. CPU
measures the battery voltage and when the battery is below 21 volts, timer is operated and after
10 minutes, Latch Relay is set to disconnect the battery circuit.
On Power Down status, if the external power is re-supplied or the Power Switch is changed from
OFF to ON, Control Module is operated as normal.
When AC Power is not supplied, in order to operate it by Power Switch, OFF for 5 seconds and
turn it ON. When it is turned ON without Battery, it is Power downed after 10 minutes.
