Setting procedure
Dials
b Dials are used to set Micrologic H protection
thresholds and tripping delays for overloads, shortcircuits, ground faults and earth leakage.
b If the set thresholds are overrun, these protection
functions systematically trip the circuit breaker.
Settings using the dials
With the protective cover open, make all the necessary

settings for your control unit.
All fine adjustments are permanently stored in memory,
unless the setting is modified using the adjustment dial.
For remote settings using the communications option,
see the "Remote settings" section in the "Com setup"
menu under "History, maintenance and setup".

E60252B
Buttons
b Buttons on the keypad are used for fine adjustments
of the protection thresholds and tripping delays for
overloads, short-circuits, ground faults and earth
leakage. The value previously set using a dial
automatically becomes the maximum value for the
keypad settings.
b They may also be used to activate other factorydisabled protection functions available on Micrologic H.
These other protection functions are not accessible via
the dials.

Caution!
A new overload (long-time) or short-circuit
(short-time and instantaneous) protection setting
made using one of the dials:
b deletes all the fine adjustments previously
made using the keypad for the overload
(long-time) and short-circuit (short-time and
instantaneous) protection
b does not affect the fine adjustments made
using the keypad for ground-fault and earthleakage protection
b does not affect any other settings made using
the keypad.
Similarly, a new ground-fault or earth-leakage
protection setting made using one of the dials:
b deletes all the fine adjustments previously
made using the keypad for the ground-fault and
earth-leakage protection
b does not affect the fine adjustments made
using the keypad for the overload (long-time) and

b does not affect any other settings made using
the keypad.

v HVF: compatible with high-voltage fuses (I4t).
b Neutral protection
Overload protection (long time) for the neutral is disabled if the Idmtl protection
function is selected. However, the short-circuit protection (short time and
instantaneous) remains operational.
b Intermittent overloads
As long as the Micrologic H control unit remains supplied with power, the effects of
intermittent overloads on cables are calculated. If power is cut, temperature rise in
cables is not calculated.
b Circuit-breaker thermal limit
For certain settings, the Idmtl curves may be limited by the I2t curve when the tripping
delay tr is set to 24 seconds or by its thermal memory. The maximum I2t curve
remains active for the phases and the neutral even when the Idmtl curves are
activated.

appendix.
Short-time protection
b The short-time protection function protects the distribution system against

impedant short-circuits
b The short-time tripping delay and the I2t ON and I2t OFF options can be used to
ensure discrimination with a downstream circuit breaker
b This function carries out true rms measurements.
b Use of I2t curves with short-time protection:
v I2t OFF selected: the protection function implements a constant time curve
v I2t ON selected: the protection function implements an I2t inverse-time curve up to
10 Ir. Above 10 Ir, the time curve is constant.
For the characteristics and external wiring of the zone

selective interlocking function, see the technical
appendix on "Zone selective interlocking".
b Zone selective interlocking (ZSI)

The short-time and ground-fault protection functions enable time discrimination by
delaying the upstream devices to provide the downstream devices the time required
to clear the fault. Zone selective interlocking can be used to obtain total
discrimination between circuit breakers using external wiring.
b Intermittent faults are taken into account by Micrologic H and may lead to shorter
tripping times than those set.

If the "without long-time protection" plug is used and the long-time protection function

is the standard case.
Instantaneous protection
b The instantaneous-protection function protects the distribution system against

solid short-circuits. Contrary to the short-time protection function, the tripping delay
for instantaneous protection is not adjustable. The tripping order is sent to the circuit
breaker as soon as current exceeds the set value, with a fixed time delay of 20
milliseconds.

b The function determines the zero-phase sequence current, i.

e. the vector sum of the phase and neutral currents (depending
on the type of installation)
b Using a special external sensor, this function directly
measures the fault current returning to the transformer via the
earth cable
b It detects faults both upstream and downstream of the circuit
breaker
b The maximum distance between the sensor and the circuit
breaker is ten metres.
b Ground-fault and neutral protection are independent and can therefore be

combined.

Origin and effects
Harmonics represent the most common power problem encountered in todays

electrical installations.
When harmonics are present, the current or voltage waveform is distorted, i.e. it is no
longer perfectly sinusoidal.
A distorted current or voltage waveform disturbs the distribution of electrical power
and power quality is not optimum.
Definition of harmonics
A periodic signal is a combination of:

v the original sinusoidal signal at the fundamental frequency
v other sinusoidal signals (the harmonics) with frequencies that are whole-number
multiples of the fundamental frequency
v a DC component, where applicable.
Any periodic signal can therefore be represented as the sum of a number of terms:
y(t) = Yo + Yn
DB120067
n=1
2 sin(nt - n)
Fundamental
50 Hz
I1
where:
b Yo is the value of the DC component (generally equal to zero and considered as
such hereinafter)
b Yn is the rms value of the nth harmonic
b is the angular frequency of the fundamental
b n is the phase displacement of the harmonic component at t = 0.
Harmonic
3 (150 Hz)
I3
A harmonic of order n, referred to as the nth harmonic, is the sinusoidal component

of a signal with a frequency that is n times higher than the fundamental frequency.

For example, the current and voltage waveforms distributed on the European
electrical power grid have the following characteristics:
b the fundamental frequency is 50 hertz (Hz)
b the 2nd harmonic has a frequency of 100 Hz
b the 3rd harmonic has a frequency of 150 Hz
b the 4th harmonic has a frequency of 200 Hz
b
A distorted waveform is the result of superimposing the various harmonics on the
fundamental.
The figure opposite shows a current distorted by harmonics.

Linear loads
Origin of harmonics
Harmonics are caused by non-linear loads.

A load is said to be non-linear when the current that it draws does not have the
same waveform as the voltage. Typical examples of non-linear loads are those using
power electronics. Such loads are increasingly numerous and their share in overall
electrical consumption is growing.
Examples are:
b industrial equipment including welding machines, arc furnaces, induction
furnaces, rectifiers, etc.
b variable speed drives for asynchronous or DC motors
b office equipment including computers, photocopy machines, fax machines, etc.
b household equipment including televisions, microwave ovens, neon lighting,
UPSs, etc.
Non-linear phenomena may also be caused by the saturation of transformers and
other equipment.
Effects of harmonics
The flow of harmonics in distribution systems can cause serious problems:

b increased currents flowing in the system and overloads
b additional losses and premature ageing of equipment
b disturbances to loads due to voltage harmonics
b disturbances in communication networks.
The above effects can also have major financial impact due to:
b the cost of equipment (premature replacement, oversizing)
b increased power losses and the need to subscribe to higher power levels
b losses in productivity (unnecessary tripping of protection devices).

04443728AA - 01/2009
Origin and effects
What is an acceptable level of harmonics?
The presence of harmonics in a distribution system should be assessed:

b as a preventive measure, to gain information on the system and detect any drift
b as a corrective measure, to diagnose a disturbance or check the effectiveness of a
solution.
Harmonic disturbances are subject to a number of standards and regulations:
b compatibility standards designed for public utilities:
v low voltage: IEC 61000-2-2
v medium voltage: IEC 61000-2-4
b electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) standards:
v for loads drawing less than 16 A: IEC 61000-3-2
v for loads drawing more than 16 A: IEC 61000-3-4
b utility recommendations for installations.
A number of international studies have produced data used to estimate the typical
harmonic values encountered in utility distribution systems. Below is a table
presenting the levels of harmonics that, in the opinion of many utility companies,
should not be exceeded.

When there are harmonics, the relation S2 = P2 + Q2 is no longer valid.

The distortion power D is defined by the equation below:
D=
S2 - P2 - Q2
Distortion factor
The distortion factor is the relation between the power factor and the cos .
Crest factor
The crest factor is the relation between the peak value of the current or voltage and
the corresponding rms value.
Crest factor =
Ipeak
or crest factor =
Irms
Upeak
Urms
Note:
b Irms is the rms current.
b Urms is the rms voltage.
b Possible values:
v for a sinusoidal signal, the crest factor is equal to 2
v for a non-sinusoidal signal, the crest factor may be less than or greater than 2.
b The crest factor is used to characterise the capacity of a source (UPS or
generator) to supply high instantaneous currents. In particular, it draws attention to
the presence of exceptional peak values with respect to the rms value.
Computer equipment, for example, draws highly distorted current with a crest factor
that can reach 3 or even 5.
b Typical crest factors for the currents drawn by non-linear loads are much higher
than 2. They are often equal to 1.5 or 2 and can reach 5 in critical cases.
b A very high crest factor means that there can be high temporary overcurrents,
which, when detected by the protective devices, may result in nuisance tripping.

Quality indicators
FFT amplitude spectrum of odd harmonic

orders from 3 up to 31
The communication module can be used to determine

for each harmonic order up to 31:
b the amplitude spectrum
b the displacement spectrum with respect to the phaseto-neutral voltage V1N.
DB120036
Each type of distorting device has its own harmonic-current "fingerprint", with
different amplitudes and displacements.
These values, in particular the amplitude for each harmonic order, are essential for
the analysis of power quality.
b FFT (Fast Fourier Transform) frequency spectrum
The Micrologic H control unit can display the FFT amplitude spectrum of odd
harmonics from the 3rd up to 31st.
The Micrologic H control unit presents the amplitude of each harmonic order with
respect to its frequency in the form of a histogram, called a spectral analysis.

Note:
b I N rms is the Neutral rms current.
b U N rms is the Neutral rms voltage.
b The Micrologic H control unit indicates the FFT amplitude spectrum and the
individual distortion level for harmonic orders from 3 to 31 for:
v each current I1, I2, I3 and IN
v each phase-to-phase voltage U12, U23 and U31.
b The Micrologic H control unit also indicates for each current or voltage the
corresponding level of total harmonic distortion THD (thd for Neutral current).

Waveform and waveform capture
The communication module may be used to:

b set up "Measurement" or "Protection" alarms
b capture and analyse waveforms; capture may be
tripped by the alarms
b captured waveforms are recorded over 4 cycles
(resolution of 64 points per cycle).
Micrologic H control units can capture and store current and voltage waveforms
using digital sampling techniques similar to those used in oscilloscopes.
Waveform capture is the means to detect weak points in the system and the
equipment. Using the information available in the captured waveform, it is possible to
determine the level of harmonics as well as the direction and amplitude of the flow of
harmonic power.
b Users of Micrologic H control units can record manually via the keypad the
following waveforms:
v the four currents I1, I2, I3 and IN
v the three phase-to-neutral voltages V1N, V2N and V3N.
b Waveforms may be displayed on the graphic screen of Micrologic H control units.
The recording takes place over one cycle with a measurement range of 0 to 1.5 In for
current and 0 to 690 volts for voltage. The resolution is 64 points per cycle.

b An alarm may be viewed using:

v the "Alarm history" menu
v the COM communications option
v the portable test kit.
b The commands in the "Protection" menu are used to attribute a specific operating
mode to each of the protection functions:
v OFF: protection disabled
v Alarm: the function issues an alarm, but does not trip the circuit breaker
v Trip + Alarm: the function issues an alarm and trips the circuit breaker.
b The protection functions against overloads (long time), short circuits (short time
and instantaneous) and ground faults (ground-fault and earth-leakage currents)
automatically result in tripping and cannot be deactivated (Trip mode only).
b The "I t Alarm" and phase rotation alarms can be set exclusively to OFF or Alarm
mode.
b The other protection functions for current, voltage, power and frequency may be
set to any of the three modes, OFF, Alarm or Trip + Alarm.
b The load shedding and reconnection function may be set to ON or OFF.
b The resettable alarms linked to device tripping are activated when the Ir, Isd/Ii
or I t thresholds are overrun.
The Ir alarm is reset one second after tripping. The Isd/Ii and t alarms are reset by
pressing the
button.

Technical appendix
Micrologic H is equipped with a three-phase voltage power supply that, with respect
to the distribution system, may be considered a delta load. The three-phase power
supply reinjects voltage on an open phase.
The voltage-protection functions react as indicated below.
Minimum-voltage protection
This function is based on the measurement of the phase-to-phase voltages.

In diagrams 1, 3 and 4 on the next page, a fuse has blown. The control unit reinjects
voltage on the failed phase and measures a phase-to-phase voltage higher than the
actual voltage.
The phase-to-neutral voltage should be zero, but the value measured is not zero.
In diagram 2, the phase-to-neutral voltage is effectively zero and the measurement
indicates zero as well.
By limiting the pickup threshold of the minimum-voltage protection to the 80% 100% range of the rated distribution-system voltage, the differences between the
real voltages and the measured values are not significant and Micrologic will operate
under all circumstances in the expected manner.
Voltage-unbalance protection
This function is based on the measurement of the phase-to-phase voltages.

In diagrams 1, 3 and 4 on the next page, a fuse has blown. The control unit reinjects
voltage on the failed phase and measures a phase-to-phase voltage higher than the
actual voltage.
The phase-to-neutral voltage should be zero, but the value measured is not zero.
In diagram 2, the phase-to-neutral voltage is effectively zero and the measurement
indicates zero as well.
By limiting the pickup threshold of the voltage-unbalance protection to the
0 % - 20 % range, the differences between the real voltages and the measured
values are not significant and Micrologic will operate under all circumstances in the
expected manner.
Phase failure
Detection of phase failure is not possible on the basis of the minimum-voltage and
voltage-unbalance protection functions.
The Micrologic power supply requires at least two phases (between 100 and 690 V).
In diagrams 1, 3 and 4, if two phases have failed, Micrologic H measures for the
three phases the value of the single voltage present (e.g. U12 = U23 = U31 = 410 V).

Zone selective interlocking (ZSI)
Technical appendix
E60450B
Operating principle
b A fault occurs at point A

Downstream device no. 2 clears the fault and sends a signal to upstream device no.
1, which maintains the short-time tripping delay tsd or the ground-fault tripping delay
tg to which it is set.
b A fault occurs at point B
Upstream device no. 1 detects the fault. In the absence of a signal from a
downstream device, the set time delay is not taken into account and the device trips
according to the zero setting. If it is connected to a device further upstream, it sends
a signal to that device, which delays tripping according to its tsd or tg setting.
Note:
on device no. 1, the tsd and tg tripping delays must not be set to zero because this would make
discrimination impossible.
Connections between control units
A logic signal (0 or 5 volts) can be used for zone selective interlocking between the
upstream and downstream circuit breakers.

An interface is available for connection to previous generations of trip units.
Wiring
Caution!
lf the protection function is not used on circuit breakers
equipped for ZSI protection, a jumper must be installed
to short terminals Z3, Z4 and Z5. If the jumper is not
installed, the short-time and ground-fault tripping
delays are set to zero, whatever the position of the
adjustment dial.

Power supply
Caution!
It is advised to use the AD power-supply module rather
than an off-the-shelf 24 V power supply to ensure Class
II insulation on the front panel of the Micrologic H
control unit.
AD power-supply module
The AD power-supply module provides auxiliary 24 V DC power for the control-unit

functions listed below:
b graphic display:
v device OFF or not supplied
v the long-time, short-time, instantaneous and ground-fault protection functions
operate under all circumstances on their own power
b activation of an M2C programmable contact
The AD power-supply module is required to assign an M2C programmable contact to
an alarm.
The power supply must have the following

characteristics:
b output voltage 24 V DC
b DC ripple less than 5%
b power rating 5 W / 5 VA
b Dielectric withstand (input/output):
3 kV rms
The AD power-supply module can supply the following voltages:

b 110 V AC
b 220 V AC
b 380 V AC
b 24 / 30 V DC
b 48 / 60 V DC
b 125 V DC.
Battery module
Use of a BAT battery module, mounted in series with the AD power-supply module,
ensures a continous supply of 24 V DC power for 12 hours if the AD module fails.

b If the 24 V DC external power supply (AD module) is used, the maximum cable
length between 24 V DC (G1, G2) and the control unit (F1-, F2+) must not exceed 10
metres.
b The communications bus requires its own 24 V DC power source (E1, E2).
This source is not the same as the 24 V DC external power-supply module
(F1-, F2+).
Selection of the voltage-measurement inputs
The voltage-measurement inputs are standard equipment on the downstream

connectors of the circuit breaker.
It is possible to measure distribution-system voltage externally using the PTE
external voltage-measurement input option.
With this option, the internal voltage-measurement inputs are disconnected. The
PTE option is required for voltages greater than 690 V (in which case a voltage
transformer is required).
When the PTE option is implemented, the supply circuit of the voltage-measurement
input must be protected against short-circuits. Installed as close as possible to the
busbars, this protection function is ensured by a P25M circuit breaker (1 A rating)
with an auxiliary contact (cat. no. 21104 and 21117).
The supply circuit of the voltage-measurement input is reserved exclusively for the
control unit and must never be used to supply other circuits.

Thermal memory
Thermal memory
The thermal memory is the means to take into account temperature rise and cooling
caused by changes in the flow of current in the conductors.
These changes may be caused by:
b repetitive motor starting
b loads fluctuating near the long-time protection settings
b repeated circuit-breaker closing on a fault.
Control units with a thermal memory record the temperature rise caused by each
overload, even very short ones. This information stored in the thermal memory
reduces the tripping time.
Micrologic control units and thermal memory
All Micrologic control units are equipped as standard with a thermal memory.
b For all protection functions, prior to tripping, the temperature-rise and cooling time
constants are equal and depend depend on the tr tripping delay:
v if the tripping delay is short, the time constant is low
v if the tripping delay is long, the time constant is high.
b For long-time protection, following tripping, the cooling curve is simulated by the
control unit. Closing of the circuit breaker prior to the end of the time constant
(approximately 15 minutes) reduces the tripping time indicated in the tripping curves.
Short-time protection and intermittent faults
For the short-time protection function, intermittent currents that do no provoke

tripping are stored in the Micrologic H memory.
This information is equivalent to the long-time thermal memory and reduces the
tripping delay for the short-time protection.
Following a trip, the short-time tsd tripping delay is reduced to the value of the
minimum setting for 20 seconds.
Ground-fault protection and intermittent faults
The ground-fault protection implements the same function as the short-time

protection (see above).

Measurement setting ranges

and accuracy
b The accuracy of the current measurements depends

on both the value displayed (or transmitted) and the
circuit-breaker rating, where:
Accuracy = 0.5 % In + 1.5 % reading
Measurement setting ranges and accuracy
Example:
For a circuit breaker with a 4000 A rating and a current
displayed on Micrologic of 49 A, the accuracy is:
0.5 % x 4000 + 1.5 % x 49 = 21 A
