Page 5/12

2. CONNECTION
The rear face of the MiCOM P225 relay comprises at least 2 connectors. The relay may
have an optional green third connector dedicated to the connection:
! of 10 temperature RTD sensors or 3 thermistors
! of 2 analogue outputs.
2.1 Earth connection
The case shall be earthed according to the local standards.
2.2 Auxiliary power
The auxiliary power for the MiCOM P225 relay can be either Direct (range 24 - 60 Vdc, 48-
150Vdc, 130-250Vdc) or Alternating (100-250Vac 50/60Hz). The range of voltage is
specified on the relay indicator plate under the top flap of the front face. The power should
be connected to terminals 33 and 34 only.
A minimum 1.5mm wire size is recommended.
2.3 Current inputs
The MiCOM P225 relay has 4 analogue inputs for phase and earth currents. The nominal
value of current of these measuring inputs is either 1 Amp or 5 Amp (according to the wiring
diagram). The operator can, for the same relay, mix the 1 and 5 Amp inputs (phase and
earth).
A minimum 2.5mm wire size is recommended.
2.4 Voltage measurement input
The MiCOM P225 relay has one voltage input for phases A and C. The nominal value of
that input is either comprised between 57 and 130 Volts, or between 220 and 480 Volts.
A minimum 1mm wire size is recommended.
2.5 Binary inputs
The MiCOM P220 relay has six opto-insulated logic inputs of which five are programmable.
Each input has its own polarity and it shall be powered :
! with a dc voltage (relay auxiliary voltage ranges : 24-60 Vdc and 48-150 Vdc),
! with either a dc voltage or an ac voltage (relay auxiliary voltage range : 130-250
Vdc/100-250 Vac).
Please refer to Chapter TD Technical Specifications of this guide for more informations.
The control and signalling functions to which the programmable logic inputs are assigned
can be selected by means of the AUTOMAT. CTRL menu.
A minimum 1mm wire size is recommended.
N.B.: A 52a contact (CB auxiliary contact: open when CB is opened)
shall be wired to the binary input n1 (terminals 22-24).
2.6 Output relays
Six output relays are available on the MiCOM P225 relay. Five relays are programmable, the
last relay being assigned to the signalling of an equipment fault (WATCH DOG). All these
relays are of the changeover type (1 common, 1 normally opened, 1 normally closed).
The protection and control functions to which these relays are assigned can be selected via
the AUTOMAT. CTRL menu.

MiCOM P225

2.7 Front port connection (RS232)
The front communication port is provided by a 9-pin female D-type connector located under
the bottom hinged cover. It provides RS232 serial data communication (asynchronous
RS232 connection according the IEC60870 requirements) and is intended for use with a PC
locally to the relay (up to 15m distance).
The relay is a Data Communication Equipment (DCE) device. Thus the pin connections of
the relays 9-pin front port are as follows:
Pin no. 2 Tx Transmit data
Pin no. 3 Rx Receive data
Pin no. 5 0V Zero volts common
The relay should be connected to the serial port of a PC, usually called COM1 or COM2.
PCs are normally Data Terminal Equipment (DTE) devices which have a serial port pin
connection as below (if in doubt check your PC manual):
Pin no. 2 Rx Receive data
Pin no. 3 Tx Transmit data
Pin no. 5 0V Zero volts common
For successful data communication, the Tx pin on the relay must be connected to the Rx pin
on the PC, and the Rx pin on the relay must be connected to the Tx pin on the PC.
Therefore, providing that the PC is a DTE with pin connections as given above, a straight
through serial connector is required, i.e. one that connects pin 2 to pin 2, pin 3 to pin 3, and
pin 5 to pin 5.
The cable between the MiCOM relay and the PC is a standard RS232 shielded cable (male
connector on the MiCOM relay side, usually female connector on PC side).

FIGURE 2 - RS485 CONNECTION

The total communication cable from the master unit to the farthest slave device is a spur,
and no branches may be made from this spur. The maximum cable length is 1000m and the
maximum number of devices per spur is 31. Polarity is not necessary for the 2 twisted wires.
The transmission wires should be terminated using a 150 # resistor at both extreme ends of
the cable. To this effect, link terminals 30 and 32, if the relay is connected at the end of the
RS485 bus, as indicated in figure 3.
Terminal 29 of each MiCOM relay shall be connected to the RS485 cable shielding, as
mentioned figure 3.
For only one MiCOM relay connected to the RS485 bus, link terminal 29 to the case earth as
indicated in figures 2 and 3.

2.8.3 RS485 cable
It is recommended that a 2 core screened cable is used with a maximum total length of 1000
m or 200 nF total cable capacitance.
Typical specification:
$ Each core: 16/0.2 mm copper conductors, PVC insulated
$ Nominal conductor area: 0,5 mm
2
per core
$ Screen: Overall braid, PVC sheathed
$ Linear capacitance between
conductor and earth: 100 pF/m
2.8.4 Protocol converter: RS232 -> K-Bus
KITZ 101,102 and 201 can be used.
Configuration is: 19200 bauds, 11 bits, full duplex.
2.8.5 RS232 / RS485 converter
The following RS232/RS485 converters have been tested by AREVA T&D:
$ RS_CONV1 converter suitable for a short length and for up to 4
connected relays
$ RS_CONV32 industrial converter, suitable for up to 31
connected relays.
2.9 Analogue outputs
The MiCOM P225 relay can include two optional analogue outputs assigned on the 28d-28b-
28z and 32d-32b-32z terminals (green coloured connector) which allow certain data and
measuring values to be reassembled on a current loop towards an automatic controller. The
selections of the type of analogue outputs (options: 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA) and of the type of
data to be reassembled are effected in the CONFIG. SELECT submenu.
It is recommended that a 2-core screened cable is used. The cable shielding shall be
bonded to the MiCOM relay case earth connector.
N.B.: The analogue outputs shall be used either in active source mode
(terminals 28d-28b et 32d-32b), or in passive source mode (terminals
28z-28b et 32z-32b). This is an exclusive OR logic.
(1) If the current loop monitoring device is
not earthed (floating potential), the
cable shielding shall be bonded to the
MiCOM relay case earth connector. In
the other case, do not connect the
cable shielding.
(2) A multi 2 core screened cable may be
used (1 shielding common for all the
2 core wires).

2.10 RTDs
The P225 relay can, as an option, be connected to 10 RTD's, which enables it to monitor
temperature (PROTECTION G1 or PROTECTION G2 menu). The choice of these types of
RTD sensors is effected in the CONFIG. SELECT submenu.
It is recommended that connections between the relay and the RTD's are made using a 3-
core screened cable with a total resistance less than 25 # in case of PT100, Ni100 or Ni120
RTD. For Cu10 RTD, the cable total resistance shall be less than 2.5 #. The wire also
should have a minimum voltage rating of 300 Vrms. Impedance of cores connected to both
terminals 2d and 2b (see figure 5) shall be of identical value. The cable shielding shall be

1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 Object of this document
The purpose of this document is to present the characteristics of the P225 motor protection
relay and to guide the operator through the setting procedures.
After an overview of the product, this manual explains the functions performed by this
protection relay and how they must be used. The menu associated with each of these
functions is presented and explained.
1.2 Definitions
Tripping
This operation consists of a command to open the breaking device (circuit breaker or fuse
contactor) connected to the motor. A tripping command can be given:
either on detection of a fault by the MiCOM P225 relay,
or by the operator (in this case it is an external tripping command).
Alarm
The detection of a fault by the MiCOM P225 relay leads to the display of an alarm message.
Acknowledgement of an alarm
This operation consists of making an alarm message disappear.
Function in service/out of service
The MiCOM P225 relay offers a certain number of protection, monitoring and control
functions. The operator can select from these functions the ones he wishes to use:
he must bring into service the functions he chooses to use,
he can take out of service the functions he does not wish to use.
Activated/deactivated function
Not all the protection functions of the P225 relay are activated at the same time. They are
alternately activated/deactivated automatically by the P225 relay itself to ensure that the
motor has protection specific to its various operating conditions: underload or overload
conditions, starting phase, locked rotor condition, and motor shut down.
N.B.: A function cannot be activated or deactivated unless the operator has
previously brought it into service.

MiCOM P225

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE MiCOM P225 MOTOR PROTECTION RELAY
The MiCOM P225 relay uses digital techniques to fulfil the functions of protection, control
and monitoring of motors.
It is equipped with 5 analogue inputs (3 phase current inputs, 1 earth current input and 1
phase-phase voltage input). The current inputs have dual ratings of 1 or 5 amperes (it is
possible to combine an earth current rating of 1 A and a phase current rating of 5 A), the
voltage input's rating is either 57-130V or 220-480V.
It is possible to program the output relays to respond to any of the protection or control
functions available. The different logic inputs can also be allocated to control functions.
The auxiliary power supply is provided by a direct current or alternating current auxiliary
source via an internal converter. Satisfactory operation of the P225 relay is guaranteed
during brief interruptions of the auxiliary power supply lasting less than 50 ms.
The front panel gives the operator access to the data of the MiCOM P225 relay either via
LEDs or via the display unit and the keypad. The various alarms are stored in the memory
and made available to the operator on the backlit display device. These alarms can be read
and acknowledged directly without a password. All the parameters and measurements are
accessible without a password. The setting values can only be modified after entering the
password stored in the memory.
The MiCOM P225 relay records and measures a large number of data with very great
accuracy. It continuously measures the phase and earth currents and the phase-phase
voltage taking into account the true RMS values up to the 10th harmonic for a 50 Hz motor
and the 8th harmonic for a 60 Hz motor.
The MiCOM P225 relay has on the rear connector a RS485 type link with a choice of
MODBUS, RTU mode, Courier or IEC 60870-5-103 communication protocols. This
enables the operator to read the data stored by the relay (measurements, alarms,
parameters), or modify the different settings and allocations of outputs of each relay, or
transmit remote orders.
It is also possible to reassemble or modify these data via the RS232 communication located
on the front panel by using the MiCOM S1 support software.
The MiCOM P225 relay can be connected directly via this link to a digital monitoring and
control system (for example: MiCOM S10, SCADA). All the data available are then at the
disposal of the supervisor and can be utilised either locally or remotely.

MiCOM P225

Page 5/52

The MiCOM P225 relay can be withdrawn while it is live. This means that its live parts can
be withdrawn from the metal housing while the relay is supplied with power via the auxiliary
source. When the relay is drawn out of its housing:
the current circuits from the phase and earth CTs are not interrupted thanks to the presence
of internal short-circuiting devices located at the current inputs (metal housing part),
no tripping order is generated,
the watchdog relay drops out,
the RS485 link is not interrupted. However, communication is no longer possible for the relay
which is drawn out.

3. THE OPERATOR INTERFACE
3.1 Description of the front panel
The front panel of the MiCOM P225 relay serves as an interface between the human and the
protection relay. It enables the operator to enter settings, to gain access to the display of
measured values and alarms, and also to display in a simple manner the different actions
performed by the MiCOM P225 relay.

FIGURE 2 - FRONT PANEL OF THE MiCOM P225 RELAY
Under the upper flap, there is a label identifying the relay by its model number and serial
number. This information defines the product uniquely and specifically. When requesting any
information from the factory, do not forget to indicate these two numbers. The auxiliary
power supply range of the relay is also indicated on the lower part of the label.
Under the lower flap, the RS232 link permits the connection of a portable PC to the MiCOM
P225 relay.
The live part can be withdrawn from the housing by opening the two flaps and applying
traction to the two notches located behind these flaps.
3.2 The LEDs
The LEDs are numbered from 1 to 8 starting from the top.
N.B.: The LEDs are turned off when the auxiliary power supply is lost. When
the power supply is back the state of the LEDs is restored.
LED 1 Colour: RED Wording: TRIP
The LED indicates that the relay has transmitted a tripping order to the breaking device
(fuse-contactor/circuit breaker). This LED copies the tripping command sent to logic output
No. 1 (tripping relay). Its normal state is extinguished. It lights up as soon as a tripping
command is issued. It is extinguished when the associated alarm is acknowledged
(disappearance of the fault and acknowledgement by the operator).
LED 2 Colour: YELLOW Wording: ALARM
This LED indicates that a motor alarm has been taken into account by the MiCOM P225
relay.
The management of the ALARM LED is directly linked to the status of the motor alarms in
the memory (MOTOR ALARM menu).

MiCOM P225

Page 7/52

If one or more messages are not read and not acknowledged, the ALARM LED flashes.
If all messages are read but not acknowledged, the ALARM LED shows a steady light.
If all messages have been read and acknowledged, the ALARM LED is extinguished.
LED 3 Colour: YELLOW Wording: WARNING
This LED indicates equipment faults of the MiCOM P225 relay.
The management of the WARNING LED is directly linked to the status of the equipment
alarms in the memory (HARDW ALARMS menu).
When a minor internal alarm (minor equipment fault, typically a communication failure) is
detected, the WARNING LED flashes.
When the fault is classed as serious, (major equipment failure) the WARNING LED is lit.
The WARNING LED can only be extinguished when the cause which produced the alarm
has disappeared (repair of the module, disappearance of the fault).
LED 4 Colour: GREEN Wording: HEALTHY
This LED indicates that the MiCOM P225 relay is energised within the rated range (0.8 to 1.2
Vaux).
LEDs 5 to 8: Colour: RED
These LEDs can be programmed by the operator in the CONFIGURATION menu.
3.3 The keypad
The keypad has seven keys arranged in two groups:
The two keys located immediately below the screen (keys ! and "),
The five keys positioned in the centre of the front panel for programming.
3.3.1 ALARM keys
The two keys ! and " are dedicated to reading and acknowledgement of the alarms
respectively. To display the successive alarms, press the ! key.
The alarms are arranged in the order in which they were detected (the most recent last, the
oldest first). To acknowledge the alarms, the operator can either acknowledge each alarm by
pressing the " key, or go to the end of the MOTOR ALARMS menu and perform a general
acknowledgement.
3.3.2 Programming keypad
The five keys situated in the centre of the front panel of the MiCOM P225 relay are
dedicated to programming
The keys # $ % & make it possible to move in the direction indicated in the different levels
of the menus.
The ' key permits the confirmation of a choice or a value (modification of parameters).
3.4 Liquid crystal display screen
The liquid crystal display screen has two lines each with sixteen characters. The screen
lights up as soon as a key on the keypad is activated. It remains lit up for 5 minutes after a
key on the keypad was last used. The screen has backlighting which makes it easy to read,
regardless of the ambient lighting conditions.

FIGURE 3 - ORGANISATION OF THE MENUS OF THE MiCOM P225 RELAY.
From the default display, access is gained to these different menus by using the # and $
keys.
To return to the default display from any one of the menus, press the $ key.
4.1 Default display
By default, a value is continuously displayed, and the operator can select this value from a
list in the CONFIG.
As soon as an alarm is generated by the MiCOM P225 relay, the relay indicates it by an
alarm message: this display takes priority and replaces the default value (see the MOTOR
ALARMS and HARDW ALARMS menus).
4.2 Access to the menus
Access is gained to the different menus via the # and $ keys.
It is possible to read all the parameters and measurements without the password.
The parameters can only be modified after entering the password.
4.3 Access to the setting parameters
Access to the setting parameters of the MiCOM P225 relay is possible in different ways:
either locally: by using the keys or the RS232 port on the front panel,
or remotely: via the RS485 port at the rear.

MiCOM P225

Page 9/52

4.3.1 Protection by password
Modification of the relay parameters via the pushbuttons on the front panel is protected by
password.
This protection applies to the relay configuration settings, particularly the selection of the
different thresholds, time delays, communication parameters, allocation of the binary inputs,
logic gates and output relays.
The password consists of four alphanumerical characters in capitals. On leaving the factory,
the password is AAAA. The operator can define his own combination of characters. If the
password is lost or forgotten, modification of the parameters stored in the memory of the
relay is inhibited. All that is required then is to contact AREVA T&D or its agent, stating the
serial number of the relay, to receive an emergency password specific to the relay
concerned.
4.3.2 Entering the password/modification of the parameters
To modify a parameter, first press the ' key to go into updating mode (or parameterisation
mode).
The operator is asked to enter the password as soon as a parameter is modified in any of
the menus or submenus. So when the operator presses the ' key, to make an adjustment,
and the password is not active, the following display appears on the screen:
ENTER PASSWORD
A A A A
The password consists of the letters between A and Z. The password is entered letter by
letter by using the # and $ keys to move forwards and backwards in the alphabet.
After each letter, press the & key to enter the next letter.
At the end of the input press the ' key to confirm the password. If the password is correct
the message PASSWORD OK appears on the screen.
After 2 seconds, the display returns to the previous point in the menu. Press the ' key
again. A cursor appears on the first field of the data to be updated:
Example modification of the current threshold I >> ([50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT submenu)
I>> THRESHOLD =
1.0 In
A flashing cursor indicates that the operator can change the value in the cell. To scroll
through the possible values for a cell, use the # and $ keys.

Page 10/52

MiCOM P225

After each value, press the & key to enter the next digit.
At the end of the input, press the ' key to confirm the modification.
While the relay is in setting mode, the letter P (Parameter) is displayed at the bottom right of
the menus and submenus headers.
Example the letter P is displayed in the [50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT submenu header:
[50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT
P
If no action is taken on the keypad for 5 minutes, the password is deactivated and the letter
P disappears. Any subsequent modification of parameters will give rise to a further request
for the password.
N.B.: The parameterisation mode only allows modification of the relay
configuration via the interface through which is was activated: if for
example the password was entered by the keys on the front panel,
only modifications carried out using these keys will be accepted.
When the parameterisation mode is activated by entering the
password via the front panel (pushbuttons), as long as this mode of
parameterisation remains active, it is no longer possible to modify
the relay parameters via the RS485 or RS232 communication
ports. The parameters of the P225 relay can only be modified by
using the pushbuttons. Once the parameterisation mode is
deactivated (no action on any pushbutton for 5 minutes), it is then
possible to modify the parameters of the P225 relay by using one
of the communication ports.
Pressing the " key during modification makes it possible to return
to the value before modification.
To modify the active password, gain access to the OP.
PARAMETERS menu then to the PASSWORD point in the menu.
4.4 The OP. PARAMETERS MENU
In this menu, the operator has access to the following information:
the type of MiCOM relay, here it is the model P225
the software version of the relay
the active setting group
the state of all the logic inputs
the state of the programmable output relays
In this menu, the operator can also:
modify the password
give the relay/motor feeder a reference (4 characters, letters or figures)
indicate the rated frequency of the motor (50 or 60 Hz)
modify the date and time.

MiCOM P225

4.5 The CONFIGURATION menu
The CONFIGURATION menu makes it possible to configure the MiCOM P225 relay.
This menu is divided into 8 submenus:
- CONFIG. SELECT
- CT/VT RATIO
- LED 5
- LED 6
- LED 7
- LED 8
- ALARM CONFIG.
- INPUT CONFIG.
4.5.1 The CONFIG. SELECT submenu
4.5.1.1 Setting group
The MiCOM P225 relay has two configuration groups corresponding to two protection groups
(menus PROTECTION G1 and PROTECTION G2). The operator can thus carry out 2
settings for each parameter: one for configuration group 1 and the other for configuration
group 2.
Management of the active setting group can be performed either on a transition or
depending on a level. This selection is done by selecting in the "SET GRP CHANGE INPUT"
cell:
either PICK UP
or LEVEL
1. If PICK UP is selected, the setting group switch can be controlled by:
- a local command:
via a logic input which must have been previously configured by the operator,
via the keys on the front panel
via the RS232 port on the front panel.
- a remote command via the RS485 port at the rear.
N.B.: The default configuration group is PROTECTION G1.
The list of access methods above is given in the order of priority:
for example the configuration changeover order given by a logic
input takes priority over the one given by the keys on the front
panel.
2. If LEVEL is selected, the active setting group depends on the state of the logic input
configured as "SET GROUP"
Logic input in low state: PROTECTION G1 group active
Logic input in high state: PROTECTION G2 group active
N.B.: If no logic input is configured as "SET GROUP", PROTECTION G1 is
the default active group

MiCOM P225

4.5.1.2 Selection of a default value to be display
The operator can select the measured value permanently displayed on the LCD screen from
the following list:
one of the 3 phase currents IA RMS, IB RMS, IC RMS,
the neutral current IN RMS,
the thermal state of the motor THERM ST,
the current value consumed by the motor as a percentage of the thermal current
threshold value Iu > (sub-menu [49] THERMAL OVERLOAD): I% LOAD
the waiting time before a start is permitted: T bef Start,
the time before a thermal trip occurs: T bef Trip,
the phase-phase voltage VAC RMS
the power factor: "POWER FACT",
the absorbed active power: "WATTs",
the absorbed reactive power: "VARs".
4.5.1.3 Motor start-up/Motor halted detection criteria
- The MiCOM P225 relay offers the choice of start detection criteria as follows:
closure of the contactor/circuit breaker: criterion listed as 52A,
closure of the contactor/circuit breaker and overshoot of the starting current
threshold Istart ([48] EXCES. LONG START submenu). These two events must
appear within an interval of time of approximately 90 ms for the detection of a start
to be accepted. This criterion is known as 52A + I.
This facility makes it possible to adapt the configuration of the P225 relay to the type of
starting used: direct on_line or soft start.
- The relay will consider the motor stopped upon drop-off of logic input L1 (logic
state 0).
N.B.: The P225 relay detects the information "contactor/circuit breaker
position" via logic input L1 (paragraph .4.11.4.1. "Fixed" inputs). The
connection of this logic input to the status of the breaking device
is obligatory.
4.5.1.4 Analogue outputs (optional)
The MiCOM P225 relay offers 2 optional analogue outputs to make the data available to a
logic controller, at 0-20 mA or 4-20 mA as desired. The current loop support can be used as
an active source circuit or a passive source circuit. The values which can be transmitted by
these analogue outputs are:
one of the 3 phase currents: IA RMS, IB RMS, IC RMS
the neutral current: IN RMS,
the voltage between phases A and C: VAC RMS
the power factor: POWER FACT
the active power: WATTs
the reactive power: VARs
the motor's thermal state: THERM ST,
the current absorbed by the motor, in percentage of the Iu> thermal current
threshold: %I LOAD,

MiCOM P225

Page 13/52

the waiting time before another start is permitted: T bef Start,
the time before a thermal trip occurs: T bef Trip,
one of the temperatures measured by the RTD (optional): TC RTD1, TC RTD2,
TC RTD3, TC RTD4, TC RTD5, TC RTD6, RTD10,
indication of the hottest RTD: No HOTTEST RTD
When an analogue output is configure to indicate the active or reactive power, a cell is
displayed. It is used to set the maximum rating of the analogue output.
The table of correspondence of the analogue outputs is given in the appendix.
4.5.1.5 Type of RTD temperature probes or thermistors (optional)
The P225 relay offers optional monitoring of 10 RTD temperature probes or 3 thermistors to
provide protection against temperature rises in the stator and mechanical bearings of the
motor (PROTECTION menu).
The type of RTD (PT100, Ni100, Ni120, Cu10), or the type of thermistor (PTC/NTC) is
selected in the CONFIG. SELECT submenu.
The table of correspondences between the temperature and resistance of the RTD is defined
in the appendix.
4.5.2 The CT/VT RATIO submenu
In the CT/VT RATIO submenu, the operator sets the primary and secondary ratings of the
Line and Earth CTs, and of the phase-phase VT.
N.B.: Where the earth current input is connected to a CT summation of the
3 phase current circuits (residual connection, no core balanced CT),
the primary and secondary values of "Earth CT" must be set to the
same values of those of the "Line CTs".
4.5.3 The LED 5, LED 6, LED 7 and LED 8 submenus
Four identical sub-menus - LED 5, LED 6, LED 7 and LED 8 are used to configure the 4
programmable LEDs of the MiCOM P225 relay.
The user can assign one or several indications to each of these LEDs. These data can
originate inside the relay (protection, automatic control, or internal logic state function) or
outside the relay (logic input).
One LED is lit if at least one of the pieces of information associated with it is valid (logic OR).
It is extinguished:
either after acknowledgement of the of associated data item or items
or on the disappearance of the data item or items which gave rise to it.
- The "EMERG. RESTART" information is activated:
either following reception of an emergency start command via the logic input
programmed on "EMERG. RESTART". It stays lit up as long as the associated
logic input is excited
or following an emergency start remote order sent via the communication network.
It will be extinguished when the "SUCCESSFUL START" information appears.

Page 14/52

MiCOM P225

- The "FORBIDDEN START" information is active if at least one of the 4 pieces of data
blocking signals is active:
either thermal blocking start "u FORBID.START"
or blocking due to limitation of the number of starts "START NB LIMIT "
or blocking due to a minimum time between 2 starts "T betw 2 start".
or blocking due to a minimum time between a stop and a start "ABS".
- The motor shut down information "MOTOR STOPPED" is activated when logic input
L1 (terminals 22-24) is not excited. It remains active until logic input L1 is excited.
- The motor running information "MOTOR RUNNING" is activated when logic input L1
(terminals 22-24) is excited. It remains active until logic input L1 is deenergised.
- The successful start information "SUCCESSFUL START" is activated after a motor
start phase if at the end of the time delay t Istart the following criteria are respected:
the locked rotor at start information ""LOCKED ROTOR" is not present
the excessively long start information "EXCES LONG START" is not present.
This information stays active until the motor shuts down (deenergisation of logic input L1).
4.5.4 The ALARM CONFIG. submenu
This sub-menu allows the user to configure the software and hardware supervision of the
safeguarded RAM and the 3.6V battery:
if YES is selected: a RAM ERROR alarm is transmitted if there is a fault in the
safeguarded RAM and a BATTERY ERROR alarm is transmitted if the 3.6V
battery fails.
if NO is selected: no alarm is transmitted in case of a failure of the safeguarded
RAM or of the 3.6V battery.
4.5.5 The INPUT CONFIG. sub-menu
- This allows the user to set the logical state of each logic input:
if 1 is selected: the logic input is active when energised, and inactive when de-
energised.
if 0 is selected: the logic input is inactive when energised, and active when de-
energised.
By default the logic inputs are active when they are energised and inactive when de-
energised (logic inputs set to 1).
Explanations on the relay algorithms, connection diagrams and commissioning
procedures in this manual are given for logic inputs set to 1. It is therefore
recommended not to modify this setting of the logic inputs.
Only a few specific applications may require modification of this setting of the logic inputs.
- In some versions of the relay, the user can select the type of voltage signal that can
energise the logic inputs in the "CONTROL VOLT" cell.
if DC is selected, the logic inputs must be energised with a direct voltage Vdc
(standard setting)
if AC is selected, the logic inputs must be energised with an alternative voltage
Vac.
WARNING: THIS CHOICE IS NOT AVAILABLE FOR ALL VERSIONS OF THE RELAY.
N.B.: When the logic inputs are energised with an alternative voltage (AC
selected), the performances of the relay for logic input state
acquisition are reduced.

4.6 The MEASUREMENTS1 and MEASUREMENT2 menus
- The measurements of the phase currents and the earth current are expressed as true
root-mean-square values. For a 50 Hz motor, the harmonics are taken into account up
to the 10th order; for a 60 Hz motor the harmonics are taken into account up to the 8th
order.
- The measurements of the phase-phase voltage VAC is expressed as true root-mean-
square values.
- The measurement of the symmetrical components is taken from the fundamental
component of the current. The positive and negative sequence components of the
current are calculated on the basis of the three phase currents, and the zero phase
sequence component is calculated from the earth current input. The following
formulae are used to calculate the symmetrical components:
) I a I a I ( 3 / 1 I
C B A
positive + + =
) I a I a I ( 3 / 1 I
C B A
negative + + =

earth
0 I 3 / 1 I =
- The frequency is measured if:
the amplitude of voltage VAC is above 5V
or if the amplitude of at least one of the three phase currents is greater than 10%
of In (In is the rating of the phase current inputs, 1A or 5A defined in the CT
RATIO submenu, on the line "LINE CT SEC =").
Where the frequency cannot be calculated, the relays displays "****".
- The phase current maximeter retains the greatest current value of one of the three
phases outside the motor starting phase. This variable is expressed as a true RMS
value.
- The I2/I1 value is the ratio of the symmetrical components "negative-sequence
current" over "positive-sequence current'.
- The active, reactive and apparent powers are derived assuming that the voltage
system is balanced.
- The active and reactive energy counters represent the energies absorbed by the
motor. When these counters reach respectively 20GWh and 20GVARh, they are
automatically reset.
These counters can be reset by pressing the " key (without password).
The energy calculation is updated every second.
- The power factor is the ratio of the active power over the apparent power.

4.7 The PROCESS menu
A set of measurements relating to operation displayed in the PROCESS menu makes it
possible to monitor the utilisation and state of the motor.
- "%I FULL LOAD" is the percentage ratio of the equivalent thermal current Ieq
absorbed by the motor over the thermal current threshold Iu> (sub-menu 4.10.1 [49]
THERMAL OVERLOAD).
- The value of the motor thermal state can be reset by the user:
either by pressing the " key after entering the password
or through a logic input set to "u RESET."
or through a command received on the RS485 communications port
- The estimate of the time before a thermal trip T before TH TRIP is given under the
following conditions:
the thermal alarm threshold u ALARM is reached
the equivalent thermal current I
eq
is greater than the thermal current threshold Iu >
considering the constant motor overload rate I
eq
/Iu >.
When the above conditions are not respected, the P225 relay displays the value ****.
- The number of authorised starts of the motor PERMIT START NB takes into account
all the criteria for limiting or blocking start, that is, the functions: "limitation of the
number of starts", "minimum time between 2 starts", "minimum time between a stop
and a start" and "thermal criterion for blocking a start". When there is no limit to the
number of authorised starts, the relay displays the value ****.
- The temperature of each RTD is given in Celsius degrees.
- "No HOTTEST RTD" indicates the number of the hottest RTD.
- The indication of the time before a further start is authorised T before START" is
given when an inhibition on starting is in progress. This indication takes into account
all the criteria for limiting or blocking start, that is, the functions: "limitation of the
number of starts", "minimum time between 2 starts", "minimum time between a stop
and a start" and "thermal criterion for blocking a start".
- The counter for the number of starts of the motor is incremented at each start. In
contrast, authorisation for the motor to re-accelerate does not increment this counter.
- The counter for the number of motor operation hours is the sum of hours during which
the motor is running.

4.8 The TRIP STATISTICS menu
In the TRIP STATISTICS menu the following are displayed:
the total number of tripping operations,
the number of tripping operations per type of fault.
Tripping can have two possible causes:
tripping on a fault: when the P225 relay detects a fault (exceeding a threshold), it
generates a tripping order;
deliberate tripping: the operator can order tripping from three access points:
a logic input, (EXT1 and EXT2 functions)
the RS232 port on the front panel,
the communications network via the RS485 rear port.
N.B.: The tripping orders stored in the memory of the MiCOM P225
protection relay for the statistics are only those transmitted to the
tripping relay (logic output RL1). This relay is one of the logic outputs
of the MiCOM P225. It is configured in the TRIP OUTPUT RLY
submenu.
Motor shutdowns for which the command was not relayed via the
output relay RL1 of the MiCOM P225 are not taken into account in the
TRIP STATISTICS menu.
4.9 The COMMUNICATION menu
The MiCOM P225 relay can communicate under the MODBUS
TM
, Courier or IEC 60870-5
protocols via the RS485 port located at the rear. These protocols are based on the master-
slave principle. The P225 relay can therefore be integrated, as a slave, in a digital monitoring
and control system. In this system, the supervisor (master), for example a PC, can:
- read and modify the setting values,
- remote the measurements, alarm data, changes of state (changes of state of
inputs/outputs, changes of setting group), values relating to fault recordings,
disturbance recording and the form of the starting current and voltage,
- issue remote orders such as commands to open or close the circuit breaker/contactor
(motor On/Off), to block start, to trig disturbance recording or to acknowledge the relay
remotely.

MiCOM P225

4.10 The PROTECTION G1 and PROTECTION G2 menus
The menus PROTECTION G1 and PROTECTION G2 are identical and enable the operator
to program 2 different configuration groups (CONFIGURATION menu).
Each of these 2 menus is divided into 10 submenus corresponding to the different protection
functions:
- [49] THERMAL OVERLOAD
- [50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT
- [50N/51N] EARTH FAULT
- [46] UNBALANCE
- [48] EXCES. LONG START
- [51LR/50S] BLOCK ROTOR
- [27] UNDERVOLTAGE
- [59] OVERVOLTAGE
- [37] LOSS OF LOAD
- [49/38] RTD or [49] THERMISTOR (optional)
The operator can bring each of these protections into service or take them out of
service in the submenus of the menu PROTECTION G1 or PROTECTION G2.
The setting parameters of the functions taken out of service do not appear on the LCD
unit and are not accessible via the communication
If the threshold or thresholds of these functions are reached, a time delay with a duration
preset by the operator is started. When this time delay expires, if the fault is still present, an
instantaneously signal is generated and can be used to energize one of the output relays.
All the algorithms of the protection functions, except the thermal replica, are based on the
fundamental component of the current.
The thermal replica is based on the model working with the true rms values of the line
current and the negative-sequence component of the current.

STATE OF THE PROTECTION FUNCTIONS (ACTIVE/INACTIVE) ACCORDING TO THE
OPERATION MODE OF THE MOTOR
The MiCOM P225 protection functions are automatically* activated or deactivated by the
relay itself according to the motor's operation mode (motor halted, start-up sequence, re-
acceleration phase or normal running condition). The table below indicates under which
conditions these protection functions are active or inactive.

* These protection functions are activated by the relay only if they have previously been
commissioned by the user.
** The time constant used in the thermal model depends on the value of the motor load
current and on the motor's operating mode. The time constant indicated in brackets is
the one used by the relay.
*** The "loss of load" function is activated upon expiry of the Tinhib timer. This timer is
user settable, it is initiated by the relay when a motor start is detected.
**** The user can inhibit this function during the starting sequence.
4.10.1 The [49] THERMAL OVERLOAD submenu: Protection against thermal overload conditions
The MiCOM P225 relay produces a thermal image of the motor from the line current and the
negative component of the current consumed by the motor, in such a way as to take into
account the thermal effects created in the stator and in the rotor. The currents' harmonic
components contribute to the motor's heating. For this reason, the thermal replica uses the
line current I
RMS
expressed in true rms value. The negative component currents consumed in
the stator generate in the rotor large amplitude currents which create a substantial
temperature rise in the rotor winding. The composition carried out by the MiCOM P225
results in an equivalent thermal current I
eq
, the image of the temperature rise caused by the
current in the motor.
The current I
eq
is calculated according to the following formula:

5 . 0
negative
RMS eq
) I Ke I ( I + =
Starting from this equivalent thermal current, the thermal state of the motor u is calculated
every cycle (every 20 ms for a 50Hz system) by the MiCOM P225 relay according to the
following formula:
) / t ( )] / t exp( 1 [ ) I / I (
i eq 1 i
T u + T > u = u
+


Page 20/52

MiCOM P225

in which:
K
e
is the negative sequence current recognition factor (adjustable).
Iu > is the thermal overload current threshold.
u
i
is the value of the thermal state calculated above (1 cycle before, ie. 20ms in a
50Hz system).
t is the iteration cycle time (20 ms for a 50 Hz system, 16,67 ms for a 60 Hz
system).
T : is the time constant of the motor. As a function of the operating conditions of
the motor, the relay uses one of the following 3 thermal time constants:
- the heating time constant Te1, used when the equivalent thermal current I
eq

is comprised between 0 and 2. Iu>, ie. when the motor is running (load or
overload condition);
- the start-up time constant Te2, used when the equivalent thermal current I
eq

is greater than 2. Iu>, ie. when the motor is in the start-up stage or in a
locked rotor condition;
- the cooling time constant Tr which is applied when the motor is shut down
(logic input L1 in the zero logic state - terminals 22-24). In this case, the
motor no longer consumes current and the value of the thermal state u
therefore decreases as time passes according to the formula:
) r / t exp(
i 1 i
T u = u
+

A thermal overload signal THERM.OV is generated when the value of the thermal state u
reaches 100 %.
N.B.: On interruption of the auxiliary power supply to the P225 relay, the
value of the thermal state u is stored in the non-volatile memory.
On reenergisation of the relay, the value of the thermal state u is
reset to its value before the interruption if it was lower than 90 %.
In the opposite case (greater than 90 %), it is reset to 90 %, to
avoid premature tripping of the relay P225 when the auxiliary
voltage returns.
The thermal state u of the motor is displayed in the PROCESS
menu.
The thermal state value u can be reset (see paragraph "4.7 The
PROCESS menu" in this section).
Even if the "thermal overload" protection function is not used, the
thermal current threshold Iu > must be set so that it is possible to
use the excessively long start EXCES LONG START and stalled
rotor while motor is running STALLED ROTOR protection
functions.
Examples of the thermal overload curve are shown in the
appendix.

4.10.1.1 Function inhibiting thermal tripping during a start: u INHIBIT
This function permits inhibition of the thermal tripping information THERM. OV. during the
starting phase. It may be necessary to use this function for some motors with temperature
rise characteristics in a starting phase very different from those in a locked rotor condition.
If the user brings this function into service, this inhibition is activated as soon as the starting
time delay tI
start
begins (cf. submenu [48] EXCES. LONG START). On expiry of tI
start
(end of
the time allowed for starting), this inhibition is deactivated.
When this function is activated, that is during the motor starting phase, the value of the
thermal state u calculated cannot exceed 90 %. This means that thermal tripping cannot take
place under any circumstances. At the end of the time allowed for starting, the value of the
thermal state is authorised to exceed 90 %.
N.B.: This function has no influence on the thermal alarm signal
u ALARM and thermal base blocking start function u FORBID.
START.
When this function is brought into service, the motor is still
thermally protected by the monitoring of the starting time.
4.10.1.2 Function of the thermal image influenced by ambient temperature (optional): RTD1
INFLUENCE
When the ambient temperature exceeds + 40C, the admissible motor current diminishes in
relation to its rated current. A setting of the protection parameters which is suitable under
normal temperature conditions is no longer suitable when the ambient temperature rises
above +40C.
The MiCOM P225 relay offers the possibility of taking into account this necessary derating of
motors. The thermal image can be modified by the ambient temperature measurement.
When this function is brought into service by the user, if the ambient temperature rises above
+ 40C, the value of the thermal threshold Iu > is automatically modified to adapt the motor
protection to the external temperature conditions. The rule for the ambient temperature
measurement influencing the thermal image is:
For an ambient temperature lower than or equal to + 40C, the thermal image is not
modified.
For an ambient temperature between + 40C and + 65C, the thermal threshold Iu > is
modified by a multiplying coefficient in compliance with the following formula:
Multiplying coefficient = 1 - (ambient temperature in C - 40)/100
For a temperature greater than or equal to + 65C, the thermal threshold Iu > is
modified by a multiplying coefficient of 0.75.
The table below gives the relationship between the ambient temperature measurement and
the influence on the thermal image:
Ambient temperature
(in Celsius)
+40 C +45 C +50 C +55 C +60 C +65 C
Correction coefficient for
the thermal threshold Iu>
(multiplying coefficient)
1,00 0,95 0,90 0,85 0,80 0,75
N.B.: This function can only be used if the relay has the option "10 RTD
monitoring".
The probe used for this function is RTD 1 (terminals 2d-2b-2z). To
use this function, a RTD measuring the ambient temperature of the
place where the motor is located must be connected to terminals
2d-2b-2z.
The operator can program the temperature thresholds of RTD 1
([49/38] RTD submenu) even if he has brought this RTD1
INFLUENCE function into service.

MiCOM P225

4.10.1.3 Thermal alarm function: u ALARM
The purpose of this function is to produce an alarm signal indicating that the thermal state u
of the motor has exceeded an adjustable threshold: ALARM. Corrective action can thus be
taken before thermal tripping occurs.
Once the threshold u ALARM is exceeded, the MiCOM P225 relay calculates and displays,
in the PROCESS menu (cf. chapter 4.7 The PROCESS menu), an estimate of the time
remaining before a thermal trip THERM. OV. occurs. This estimate is given for a constant
overload rate.
4.10.1.4 Thermal base blocking start function: u FORBID. START
This function makes it possible to block a start on a hot motor, or not, as a function of its
thermal state. When this function has been adjusted in service by the user, a further start is
inhibited for the motor as long as its thermal state u is higher than an adjustable threshold u
FORBID START. It is then necessary to wait until the motor cools down. When the value of
the thermal state u falls below the threshold u FORBID START, the starting of the motor is
authorised.
The blocking start u FORBID START information is activated if both of the 2 following
conditions are met:
Motor shut down: logic input L1 in the zero state (terminals 22-24).
Thermal state value u higher than the threshold u FORBID START.

4.10.2 The [50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT submenu
The [50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT function which protects the motor against short-circuits
between phases uses a definite time phase overcurrent protection.
In this menu a short-circuit current threshold I >> and its associated time delay tI >> are
adjustable.
The P225 relay generates a signal if the phase current exceeds the threshold I >> for a
length of time greater than tI >>.
In addition to this time-delayed threshold, an instantaneous information (threshold I >>
without time delay) is available.

N.B.: The time delay tI >> can be set to instantaneous.
When the operator has adjusted the [50/51] SHORT-CIRCUIT
function in service, this function is always active whatever the
mode of operation of the motor (motor running, shut down, starting
phase, locked rotor condition).
In the event of saturation of the phase CTs, the MiCOM P225 will
detect a short-circuit under the following conditions:
Fault current lower than 200 times the limit current value for
saturation of the CTs.
No remanent flux in the CTs at the time of establishing the fault.
No direct current component at the time of establishing the fault.
Short-circuit threshold I>> set below 0.9, the limit current value for
saturation of the CTs.
4.10.3 The [50N/51N] EARTH FAULT submenu
The [50N/51N] EARTH FAULT function which protects the motor against faults between one
or more phases and earth uses a definite time zero phase sequence overcurrent protection.
Earth faults create a zero phase sequence current measured either by 3 phase CTs in a
residual connection, or directly by a core balanced CT surrounding the 3 conductors.
Two independent earth current thresholds (Io > and Io >>) with their associated time delays
(tIo > and tIo >>) enable the operator to configure for example an alarm threshold and a
tripping threshold.
The settings of the thresholds are expressed as a function of the residual current (3 times
the zero phase sequence component).
For each earth current threshold, time-delayed information and instantaneous information is
available.

4.10.4 The [46] UNBALANCE submenu
The [46] UNBALANCE function, which protects the motor against unbalance conditions,
broken conductor and phase inversions, is based on the measurement of the negative
sequence component of the current.
Two negative sequence overcurrent thresholds are available:
one of them, I2>, is associated with a definite time delay,
the other, I2>>, is associated with a inverse time characteristic.
The user can use the threshold I2> to detect the inversion or loss of a phase, or to give an
unbalance alarm.
The threshold I2>> has an inverse time characteristic which enables it to allow slight
instantaneous unbalances to pass whilst more substantial unbalances will be detected more
quickly. This inverse time characteristic permits selective clearance of external two-phase
faults which appear on the system. This operating characteristic in compliance with the
withstand of the motors is given in the appendix.

This function, which makes it possible to detect a voltage drop, uses a phase-phase
undervoltage protection with a definite time characteristic.
This function is deactivated when the motor is stopped (logic input L1 state = 0) and can also
be deactivated during the motor start-up stage ("INHIB V<" set to "YES" by the user).
If the measured voltage (voltage between phases A and C) remains below the "V<" threshold
for a time greater than or equal to "tV<", a voltage drop signal "tV<" is issued by the P225

4.10.7 The [48] EXCES LONG START submenu: Protection against excessively long starts
The [48] EXCES. LONG START function protects the motor against excessive start-up
overcurrent. To this effect, it uses a start-up current threshold I
start
and a start-up time-delay
tI
start
. This threshold and this time delay can be adjusted to allow the starting current to pass.
This function is activated (time delay tI
start
initiated) as soon as the MiCOM P225 relay detects
a start (the criterion for detection of a start is selected in the CONFIGURATION menu). It is
deactivated on expiry of the starting current time delay tI

If, on expiry of the time delay tI

stalled rotor whilst the motor is running is activated.

4.10.8.2 Locked rotor at start
This function, which makes it possible to detect that the motor is locked at the start, is
activated only during the starting phase, that is during the course of the starting time delay
tI
start
.
It uses a motor speed indication received via a logic input of the P225 relay set on SPEED
SW and the tI
stall
time-delay: locked rotor time (a speed switch device must be connected to
this logic input: paragraph 4.11.4.2. the INPUTS submenu: programmable inputs).
On detection of a start, the "locked rotor at start" function is activated: the time delay tI
stall

begins. At the end of this time delay, the logic input set on SPEED SW must be in logic state
1 to indicate that the motor speed is not zero. The opposite case (zero speed) means that
the rotor is locked, so the P225 relay generates a locked rotor at start order LOCKED
ROTOR.

N.B.: The speed switch device sends information to the P225 relay
indicating, by the closing of a contact, that the rotor is rotating.
The time delay tI
stall
is common to the protection functions for "rotor
stalled while motor is running" and "rotor locked at start".
If the motor is not fitted with a speed switch device, this function
cannot be used and must therefore be deactivated.
4.10.9 The [37]LOSS OF LOAD submenu: Protection against undercurrent/loss of load conditions
The [37] UNDERCURRENT function which makes it possible to detect a loss of load (for
example the draining of a pump or breakage of a conveyor belt), uses definite time
undercurrent protection. The user sets the following parameters:
undercurrent threshold I <
time delay tI < associated with the undercurrent threshold
the inhibit start time delay T
inhib
.
This function is deactivated when the motor is shut down (logic input L1 in the 0 state) and
also during the inhibit time delay T
inhib
.
When the P225 relay detects that the motor is starting, this function is activated at the end of
the inhibit time delay T
inhib
.
The time delay T
inhib
is useful for motors with no-load starting which take on load gradually at
the end of starting.
When the motor is running (and after expiry of the inhibit time delay T
inhib
), if the value of one
of the phase currents consumed by the motor is lower than the threshold I < for a period
greater than or equal to tI <, the P225 relay will generate a loss of load signal t I< .

4.10.10 The [49/38] RTD submenu: Temperature protection by RTD (optional)
The [49/38] RTD SENSORS [49/38] function is intended to detect abnormal temperature
rises of the motor by direct temperature monitoring. This is achieved by monitoring 10 RTDs
(Remote Temperature Detectors). The RTDs can be selected from the following types:
PT100, Ni120, Ni100 or Cu10 (types selected in the CONFIGURATION menu).
For each RTD, the user sets:
an alarm threshold RTD # ALARM,
a time delay associated with the alarm threshold t RTD# ALARM,
a tripping threshold RTD # TRIP,
a time delay associated with the tripping threshold t RTD TRIP #.
An alarm signal is generated if the temperature measured exceeds the programmed alarm
threshold for a period of time equal to the time delay associated with this threshold.
A tripping signal is generated if the temperature measured exceeds the programmed tripping
threshold for a period of time equal to the time delay associated with this threshold.
The P225 continuously supervises the RTDs proper operation. A "RTD/Therm ERROR"
alarm is issued if:
a RTD wiring circuit is opening
a RTD is short-circuited.
On detection of a RTD failure, a RTD/Therm ERROR alarm message is generated and
the over temperature thresholds corresponding to this RTD will be deactivated.
The RTD can be located:
at the stator windings (protection of the stator, indirect protection of the rotor, detection
of failure of the cooling system),
at the mechanical bearings (to detect failure of the lubrication),
outside the motor (ambient temperature measurement), at the same level as that of
the entry of cooling air.
N.B.: The symbol # corresponds to the number of the RTD.
The RTDs monitored must obligatorily be all of the same type (all
of type PT100, or Ni100, or Ni120, or Cu10).
It is possible to connect only the RTDs that one wishes to monitor.
RTD 1 can be used to measure the ambient temperature and thus
influence the thermal image (see chapter 4.10.1.2.).
4.10.11 The [49] THERMISTOR submenu: Temperature protection by thermistor (optional)
The [49] THERMISTOR function, like the preceding one, detects abnormal temperature
rises. It operates with thermistors of type PTC or NTC (selected in the CONFIGURATION
menu).
The P225 relay can monitor 3 thermistors (optional). Each thermistor input is linked to an
independent threshold (Thermist#) with a fixed time delay of 2 seconds. For each thermistor,
the user sets a threshold in ohms.
A "Thermist#" order is generated if the thermistor resistance measured exceeds this
threshold for a length of time greater than or equal to 2 seconds.
N.B.: The symbol # corresponds to the number of the thermistor.
The optional function for " 3 thermistors monitoring" is incompatible
with the function for " 10 RTD monitoring" option.

4.11.1 The [66] START NUMBER submenu : Limitation of the number of starts per period
The [66] START NUMBER function allows the number of motor start-ups over a given period
to be limited. In effect, starting the motor too frequently can be too constraining for the motor
(over-heating), for its starting system (starting impedance, electrolytic bath,...) or can in some
cases reveal an anomaly in the process operation,
The [66] START NUMBER function uses the following adjustable parameters.
a monitoring period T
reference

a number of hot starts limit HOT START NB
a number of cold starts limit COLD START NB
a start inhibit time delay T
interdiction
.
Each time an motor start is detected, the T
reference
time delay is initiated and the number of
starts registered by the counter corresponding to the temperature of the motor (hot or cold) is
incremented by one. At the end of this time delay, the counter in question will be
decremented by one.
Each time the motor is stopped (change of state of logic input L1: from state 1 to state 0)
relay P225 establishes whether either of the two counters has been reached. If so, start
inhibit signal START NB LIMIT will be generated for a length of time equal to T
interdiction
. At the
end of T
interdiction
, this signal drops out, and it is possible to start the motor again.
Examples: Taking as an example cold starts where the limit of the number of cold starts
has been set at 3 for a period of T
reference
.

Page 30/52

MiCOM P225

Case n1:
The number of cold starts limit has been reached and the motor is stopped before the end of
the T

period: the T

N.B.: A start is considered cold if the value of the motors thermal state
is less or equal to 50% when an motor start phase is detected.
A start is considered warm if the value of the motors thermal state
is more than 50% when an motor start phase is detected.
In cases where at the end of the T
interdiction
time delay period, one of
the counters is still reached, the START NB LIMIT start inhibit
signal will not drop out until the counter in question is decremented
(example case No.3).
The number of authorised starts and the waiting time before a new
start is authorised are available in the PROCESS menu (see
section 4.7. The PROCESS menu).
4.11.2 The MIN TIME BETW 2 START submenu: Minimum time between two starts
Excessive motor or starting system heating caused by two consecutive starts can be avoided
by means of the MINI TIME BETW 2 START function.
It is based on the use of an adjustable time delay: minimum time between 2 starts T betw 2
start .
This time delay is initiated on detection of an motor start up by the P225 relay. When the
motor stops, if the T betw 2 start time delay has not finished, start inhibit signal Tbetw 2
start is generated until the end of the Tbetw 2 start time delay.

Examples:
Case n1: Case n2:
The stopping of the motor takes place

4.11.3 The REACCEL AUTHORIZ submenu: Re-acceleration/load shedding authorisation
A fall in voltage from the electrical network causes a reduction in rotor speed. When the
voltage is restored, the rotor starts on a re-acceleration phase in order to regain its nominal
speed. This re-acceleration manifests itself as an intake of current of approximately the
same value as that of the locked rotor current, its duration being relative to the magnitude of
the fall in voltage and the duration of the fall in voltage.
The MiCOM P225 relay can detect and measure the duration of a voltage drop. By
comparing how long this voltage reduction lasts with an adjustable time delay T
reacc
, the relay
will authorise or prevent the motors re-acceleration.
A settable undervoltage threshold "Detection V Dip" makes it possible to detect a voltage
drop.
A settable overvoltage threshold "Restoration V Dip" makes it possible to detect a restoration
of the voltage.
The user adjusts a time delay T
reacc
This time delay corresponds to the maximum duration of
a voltage sag for which the motor re-acceleration is to be authorised.
Upon detection of a voltage drop, the P225 relay initiates a time-delay, T
reacc
.
Three circumstances are possible:
- Before the end of the time-delay T
reacc
(duration of the voltage sag shorter than T
reacc
),
the voltage is back (voltage greater than "Restoration V Dip") and within 5 seconds
after this restoration, the current absorbed by the motor crosses the I
stall
threshold
(function [51LR/50S] BLOCK ROTOR), then:
the P225 goes into monitoring of a start-up sequence (initiation of the tI
start
time
delay, EXCES LONG START function) and it deactivates the stalled rotor whilst
running function.
at the end of the tI
start
delay allowed for a start, the relay P225 reactivates the
stalled rotor whilst running function.

MiCOM P225

Page 33/52

- Before the end of the T
reacc
time-delay (duration of the voltage sag shorter than T
reacc
),
the voltage is back (voltage greater than "Restoration V Dip"), but the current
absorbed by the motor does not cross the I
stall
threshold within 5 seconds after this
restoration, then:
the P225 relay operation does not change.
- At the end of the T
reacc
time-delay, the voltage drop is still present (duration of the
voltage sag greater than T
reacc
), then:
a VOLTAGE DIP signal is issued by the P225 relay. Assigning this signal to the
trip output relay (RL1) allows to stop the motor if required.
Examples
Case n1:
The duration of the voltage drop is less than the T
reacc
time delay, when the mains voltage is
restored, re-acceleration of the motor is authorised.

4.11.4 Binary inputs
The P225 has 6 logic inputs, 5 of which are programmable.
4.11.4.1 Fixed input
One of the P225s logic inputs is predefined for a fixed use, it is:
Logic input L1 (terminals 22 - 24) is linked to the position of the fuse-contactor or circuit
breaker (52a). This input should be linked to the 52a interlock of the cut off device (the 52a
interlock is open when the cut off device is open, it is closed when the cut off device is
closed). The connection of this logic input is compulsory.
4.11.4.2 The INPUTS submenu: Programmable inputs
The user can program five of the P225s logic inputs. These are logic inputs L2 (terminals
26-28), L 3 (terminals 13-15), L 4 (terminals 17-19), L 5 (terminals 21-23) and L 6 (terminals
25-27). The user chooses the allocation of these logic inputs in the INPUTS menu, that is to
say to what use the relay P225 will put these external logic data:
4.11.4.2.1 Emergency Start
An emergency start may be necessary for safety reasons. When the logic input having been
assigned to the EMERG ST function is powered on (logic state at 1), the P225 relay
reacts as follows:
The thermal state value u is muzzled at 90% so that no thermal trip order THERM.
OV. can occur during the motor start up phase (see section 4.10.1.1. Function
inhibiting thermal tripping during a start: u INHIBIT). At the end of the tI
start
time delay
allocated to the start up, the thermal condition value u will be allowed to exceed 90%.
The thermal base blocking start signal u FORBID. START is suppressed.
The blocking start START NB LIMIT signal from the limitation of number of starts
function is suppressed.
The T betw 2 start blocking start signal from the minimum time between 2 starts
The ABS blocking start signal from the minimum time between a stop and a start
The motor can therefore be restarted and no thermal tripping can take place during the start
up phase.
N.B.: The logic input EMERG ST must be kept powered during the
whole of the motor start up phase.
The relay P225 can also receive a remote emergency start
command via the communication network.
An emergency start up instruction EMERG ST does not order
the closure of the cut off device (motor start up) but makes the
motor start up possible.
4.11.4.2.2 Setting group switch/active setting group
- If PICK UP has been selected in the INPUT CONFIG. sub-menu
Upon receipt of a pick-up (minimum duration 15ms) of the logic input set to "SET GROUP",
the MiCOM P225 relay switches between setting groups.
The change from one configuration to another can also be achieved via the operator menu
or the communication network (see section 4.5.1.1. Configuration Group).
- If LEVEL has been selected in INPUT CONFIG. submenu
Setting group G1 is active when the logic input set to "SET GROUP" is de-energised (low
state).
Setting group G2 is active when the logic input set to "SET GROUP" is energised (high
state).

Page 36/52

MiCOM P225

A parameter setting group change is not possible if one of the following protection functions
is in progress (that is to say if the current threshold of these functions is exceeded):
[50/51] SHORT CIRCUIT function
[50N/51N] EARTH FAULT function
[46] UNBALANCE function
[27] UNDERVOLTAGE function
[59] OVERVOLTAGE function
[48] EXCES LONG START function
[50S/51LR] BLOCK ROTOR function
[37] LOSS OF LOAD function
[49/38] RTD probe function
[49] THERMISTANCE function
4.11.4.2.3 Speed switch device
A logic input set on SPEED SW can be connected to a speed sensor usually known as a
speed switch .
The speed switch should be open when the rotor is not turning and should close as soon
as it detects rotor rotation. The connecting of this logic input to a speed switch device is
necessary in order to be able to use the locked rotor at start protection function.
N.B.: When no logic input is set to "SPEED SW", the "Locked rotor at start-
up" function (refer to chapter 4.10.8.2) cannot be used, it must
therefore be deactivated.
4.11.4.2.4 Trigging of the disturbance recording
By assigning the command DIST TRIG to a programmable logic input, the operator will be
able to initiate the disturbance recordings (RECORD menu) from this input. The energising
(rising front) of this programmed logic input on DIST TRIG will trigger a disturbance
recording.
4.11.4.2.5 External acknowledgement
By dedicating a logic input to the external acknowledgement command EXT RESET , the
operator can acknowledge the alarms and unlatch the output relays if the latter were kept
energised (see sections 4.11.8 and 4.11.10), by energising this logic input.
4.11.4.2.6 Auxiliary 1 and auxiliary 2 data
The EXT1 and EXT2 assignments allow relay P225 to acquire two lots of external
binary data. A time delay (t EXT 1 and t EXT 2 respectively) is linked to each assignment.
The internal EXT1 signal to the relay is in logic state 1 if the associated logic input is
energised for a time longer or equal to t EXT 1 time delay. When the logic input is no longer
energised, the logic state of the internal EXT1 signal drops back to 0.
The internal EXT2 signal to the relay is in logic state 1 if the associated logic input is
energised for a time longer or equal to t EXT 2 time delay. When the logic input is no longer
energised, the logic state of the internal EXT2 signal drops back to 0.
When the t EXT 1 and t EXT 2 timers expire, the following happen:
an alarm message is sent
the Alarm LED is lit
an event is recorded.

MiCOM P225

Page 37/52

4.11.4.2.7 Auxiliary 3 and auxiliary 4 data
The EXT3 and EXT4 assignments operate similarly to EXT1 and EXT2 , but when
the associated timers expire:
there is no alarm message,
the "Alarm" led is not lit,
an event is recorded.
4.11.4.2.8 Thermal state reset
When a logic input is assigned to the "u RESET" signal, the user can reset the thermal state
value u (refer to section 4.10.1), by energising this logic input.
4.11.4.2.9 Trip circuit supervision
One or two logic inputs can be set to "TRIP CIRC" so as to be used to supervise the trip
circuit (refer to section 4.11.14.1).
4.11.4.2.10 No assignment
When a logic input is programmed on NONE (None) it becomes inactive. Whether this
logic input is switched on or not, relay P225 takes no account of it.
4.11.5 The AND LOGIC EQUAT submenu: Programmable AND logic gates
The AND LOGIC EQUAT function allows the operator to programme 4 AND logic
equations, known respectively as A, B, C and D.
Each equation can be the logic AND of one, two or several items of internal logic signals
(protection or automatism functions) or external data (state of logic inputs EXT 1 ,
EXT2 , EXT 3 and EXT4 ) to the relay P225.
In this menu, the user constructs each of the 4 logic equations by creating logic AND gate
between several items of data. Data is assigned to a logic equation by positioning the
corresponding digit to 1. When the digit is set at 0, the data is not assigned to the
corresponding logic equation.
Examples:
You want to create 2 AND logic equations. For the first equation, you wish to implement
the AND logic of the following data:
time delayed earth fault 1st element (tlo>)
successful start (SUCCESS START)
logic state of one of the binary inputs (EXT1)
&
tIo>
SUCCESS START
EXT 1
P0207ENa

For the second logic equation, you wish to implement le logic AND of the following data:
unbalance fault 1st element (tI2>)
logic state of one of the binary inputs (EXT1)
&
tIi>
EXT 1
P0208ENa


Page 38/52

MiCOM P225

Programming in the AND LOGIC EQUAT menu is carried out as follows. In this example, the
first equation will be the A equation and the second B:
t I0> D C B A
0 0 0 1
Allocation of the t lo> data to equation A.
t I2> D C B A
0 0 1 0
Allocation of the t l2> data to equation B.
EXT1 D C B A
0 0 1 1
Allocation of the EXT1 data to logic equations A and B.
SUCCESS D C B A
START 0 0 0 1
Allocation of the SUCCESS START data to equation A.
4.11.6 The AND LOGIC EQUAT T DELAY: AND logic gate time delay
2 time delays can be linked to each of the 4 programmable logic equations: one operation
time delay and one reset time delay. These 8 independent time delays (4 logic equations, 2
time delays per equation) are configurable in the AND LOGIC EQUAT T DELAY sub-menu.
- The operation time delay (T
operat
) is initiated only if all the associated data in a logic
equation are valid (AND gate). It allows the logic equation validation to be delayed for
a time T
operat
.
- The reset time delay (T
reset
) is initiated as soon as any of the data associated with the
equation disappears. This allows the equation to remain valid after an item of data has
disappeared for a length of time T
reset
.
Example

4.11.7 The AUX OUTPUT RLY submenu : Auxiliary programmable output relays
In this menu the user assigns the MiCOM P225 internal and external data to the auxiliary
output relays (relays RL2, RL3, RL4 or RL5). These are changeover type relays (1 common,
1 normally open contact, 1 normally close contact). One relay is switched on when at least
one of the data items linked to it is valid (OR logic). It drops back once all its associated data
has disappeared.
Data assignable to the auxiliary output relays can be:
- of the internal type
logic state of a protection function (instantaneous, time delayed signals)
logic state of an automatism or state function (blocking start, successful start)
the result of an AND logic equation
- of the external type
signal received via logic inputs ( EXT1 , EXT2 , EXT3 and EXT4 )
signal received via the communication network (remote control by the supervisor).
4.11.8 The LATCH AUX OUTPUT RLY submenu : Latching of the output relays
In this menu the user programs each auxiliary output relays (relays RL2, RL3, RL4 or RL5)
to have a latching operation or a self-reset operation.
When a relay set as latching receives an energisation signal, it remains energised even after
the signal has stopped. It will be necessary to come and acknowledge the P225 in order to
switch off this output relay.
N.B.: There are 3 possible ways to acknowledge the P225, and thus
switch off one output relay in the event of latching:
- press the " button
- send an acknowledge order to the configured logic input
on EXT RESET
- send a acknowledge remote order via the communication
network (order given by a supervisor)
On loss of auxiliary power, the output relay drops back. On return
of auxiliary power, the output relay is re-energised, independently
of the fault status (still present or cleared).
4.11.9 The TRIP OUTPUT RLY submenu: Configuration of the trip output relay
Data which is going to control the relay RL1 (terminals 2-4-6) can be assigned using the
TRIP OUTPUT RLY sub-menu. This changeover type relay is used to give a tripping order to
the cut-off device.
The relay RL1 (tripping relay) has the same electrical and mechanical characteristics as the
other output relays.
Reminder: A certain number of the MiCOM P225 functions are based on the operation of
relay RL1, i.e.
The Trip Cause Statistics (refer to section 4.8)
The Latching of the Trip Output Relay (refer to section 4.11.8)
The CB fail function (refer to section 4.11.11)
The trip circuit supervision function (refer to section 4.11.14.1)
The Surveillance of the cut-off device (refer to section 4.11.14)
The record of fault values (refer to section 4.12.1)
The triggering of disturbance record (refer to section 4.12.2)
The display of data relating to the cut-off device (refer to section 4.12.3)

MiCOM P225

4.11.10 The LATCH TRIP ORDER submenu: Latching of the trip output relay
In this menu, the user selects which functions are to maintain the output relays energised
when an order is generated by these functions.
Therefore, when one of the functions set as latching issues a trip signal via output relay RL1,
the relay remains energised after the end of the trip signal. It will be necessary to come and
acknowledge the P225 in order to switch off the output relay RL1.
N.B.: Latching of the output relays is optional for each of these functions.
The user can chose whether to assign these functions to the trip
output relay latching facility .
There are 3 possible ways to acknowledge the P225, and thus
switch off the output relay RL1 in the event of latching:
- press the " pushbutton,
- send an acknowledge order to the configured logic input
on EXT RESET
- send a acknowledge remote order via the communication
network (order given by a supervisor)
On loss of auxiliary power, the output relay drops back. On return
of auxiliary power, the output relay is re-energised, independently
of the fault status (still present or cleared).
4.11.11 The CB FAIL sub-menu: Breaker failure protection
The breaker failure function is used to quickly detect that a circuit-breaker has not opened
(phase fault currents still present) after a trip signal.
This function is based on a "I<BF" current threshold and on a "tBF" time-delay; these two
settings can be configured by the user.
If this function is commissioned by the user, it is activated every time relay RL1 issues a trip
command.
The "tBF" time-delay is initiated upon energisation of output relay RL1. Then, for each
phase, the MiCOM relay detects the first crossing of the current out of the zone created by
"I<BF". Upon detecting this crossing, the MiCOM relay initiates another time-delay with a
fixed value equivalent to 20 samples.
The relay sampling value is 32 samples/cycle. Therefore, the duration of the fixed time-
delay is 12.5ms at 50Hz and 10.4ms at 60Hz As long as this 12.5ms timer is running, the
relay checks whether the current leaves the current zone again. Where the current is not
suppressed by the circuit breaker pole, it will come out of the zone after a half cycle, ie. 16
samples (10ms at 50Hz).
The relay restarts the 20 sample timer each time it detects that the current comes out of the
preset current zone "I<BF".
For each 20 sample window the relay checks that when the current leaves the zone it does
so in the opposite direction to the previous crossing:
- If there is no opposed current crossing, then the relay decides that the circuit breaker
pole is open.
- If there is a current crossing opposed to the previous crossing, then the relay decides
that the circuit breaker pole is still close.
At the end of the tBF time-delay, the relay checks the state of each breaker pole (according
to the principle described above). If one or several poles are not open, the MiCOM relay
issues an alarm message: "CB FAIL".

4.11.12 The ABS sub-menu: Minimum time between a stop and a start
The ABS (anti-backspin) function imposed a waiting time between a stop and a re-start of
the motor. This waiting time makes it possible to stop rotating before the motor is re-started.
It is based on the use of an adjustable time delay: tABS.
This time-delay is initiated when a motor stop is detected. As long as this timer is running, an
ABS indication issued. This ABS indication disappears at the end of the tABS time-delay.

It is only valid when the relay "sees" the motor as stopped.
With the motor stopped, the P225 relay issues a "BUS VOLTAGE" indication if the measured

4.11.14 The CB SUPERVISION submenu: Circuit-breaker supervision
4.11.14.1 Trip circuit supervision
The TRIP CIRCUIT SUPERV function supervises the trip circuit wiring continuity.
One or two logic inputs must have been assigned to "TRIP CIRC" (refer to section
4.11.4.2.9), then connected to the trip coil power circuit.
When the TRIP CIRCUIT SUPERV function is set on YES, the MiCOM relay continuously
checks the trip circuit whatever the position of the circuit breaker poles, open or closed. This
function is inhibited when the protection relay sends a tripping order to the circuit-breaker,
via its RL1 output relay.
If, during a time equal to tSUP, the state of the logic input(s) assigned to "TRIP CIRC" is 0,
the MiCOM relay issues a TRIP CIRC. FAIL alarm.

4.11.14.2 Circuit-Breaker supervision
The P225 relay monitors the operation of the cut-off device (fuse-contactor or circuit
breaker). Three criteria are monitored and for each of these an adjustable alarm threshold is
available to the user. These thresholds are based on:
- Monitoring of the time of opening of the cut-off device. This is the time from the
moment when the P225 sends an order to the output relay RL1 to the moment when
the P225 relay receives the data on the logic input RL1 (terminals 22-24) indicating
that the cut-off device is open.
- Monitoring of the number of opening orders. This is the number of tripping orders
which have been given to relay RL1.
- Monitoring of the sum of broken amp to the power of "n" broken by the switching
device (exponent: n =1 or 2). The current value taken into account is that of the
current when output relay RL1 receives the trip command.
When one of the thresholds described above is exceeded, an alarm message is available on
the display and logic data can be assigned by the user on one or several of the auxiliary
output relays (relays RL2, RL3, RL4 or RL5).
So as to adapt the MiCOM P225 to any type of cut-off device, the user can also configure 2
time delays:
One maintenance of tripping order TRIP T time delay: For each tripping order sent on the
relay RL1, the latter is kept switched on for a time TRIP T (if the trip output relay latching
facility has not been set on).
One maintenance of tripping order CLOSE T time delay: a tripping order (closure of the cut-
off device) given by the communication network (remote control CLOSE ORDER) is
maintained on the auxiliary output relay for a time equal to CLOSE T. This is the output relay
to which the CLOSE ORDER, order has been allocated (AUX OUTPUT RLY menu).
N.B.: For the summation of the amps to exponent n cut, the exponent
n can be adjusted to the value 1 or the value 2.
In all cases, the orders sent on the output relay RL1 (tripping
order) are maintained for at least 100 ms.

4.12 The RECORD menu
The RECORD menu comprises 3 sub menus:
- FAULT RECORD
- DISTURB RECORD
- CB MONITORING
4.12.1 The FAULT RECORD submenu
A collection of data on each of the 5 last faults registered is displayed in the FAULT
RECORD sub menu.
For each recording, the relays memorises
the fault number
the time of the fault
the date of the fault
setting group (group G1 or G2) active at the time of the fault
the faulty phase
the function which detected the fault
magnitude of fault current or voltage (in fundamental value)
the 3 phase currents (in true rms values)
the earth current (in true rms value)
the phase-phase voltage VAC (in true rms value)
The recordings of the fault are accessible:
either through the Human Machine Interface (display front face)
either using the remote communication network (RS485 rear port)
or using the MiCOM S1 support software (RS232 front port)
Fault number 5 is the last fault registered, fault number 1 is the oldest.
N.B.: The data registered in non volatile memory are available for 1 year
without auxiliary power, thanks to a back-up battery housed in the
front face.
These data are not erasable. They are managed in a circular list:
when this is full, the oldest fault is erased.
Faults are signalled by one or several alarm messages.

Page 48/52

MiCOM P225

4.12.2 The DISTURBANCE RECORD submenu
The MiCOM P225 relay offers the possibility of saving 5 disturbance records. The data are
acquired at a frequency of 32 samples per electrical cycle, ie. 1600Hz in a 50Hz system or
1920 Hz in 60Hz system, and allows for a very faithful reconstruction of the analogue
signals.
For each recording, the relays memorises
the 3 phase currents
the earth current
the phase-phase voltage VAC
the frequency
the state of the 6 logic inputs
the state of all the output relays (including the watchdog relay)
the date and the time
The total duration of a recording is defined by the configuration of the pre-time and post-time.
The pre-time defines the duration of the recording before the disturbance recording triggering
order, the post time defines the duration of the recording after the disturbance recording
triggering order. In all cases, the total duration of a recording cannot exceed 2.5 seconds.
P0244ENa
Duration of recording : 2,5 seconds maximum
Pre-time Post-time
Triggering order

The triggering of a disturbance recording can be generated:
- when a logic entry programmed on DIST TRIG is excited (see section 4.11.4.2.4
Trigging of the disturbance recording)
- on receipt of a remote control from a supervisor on the communications network
(RS485 rear port)
- on receipt of a remote control from MiCOM S1 support software (RS232 front port)
- when one of the following occurs (exclusive choice):
instantaneous over-stepping of one of the following current thresholds: I>>, Io>,
Io>>, V< or V> (instantaneous short-circuit, instantaneous earth fault 1st and 2nd
stages, instantaneous under- and overvoltage data respectively)
or when output relay RL1 is excited (relay dedicated to the tripping of the cut-off
device). The excitement of this relay can be due to the detection of an electrical
fault or to a voluntary opening order (opening remote control on the
communication network, external order relayed by one of the logic inputs).
The disturbance recordings can be retrieved:
- either using the remote communication network (RS485 rear port)
- or using the MiCOM S1 support software (RS232 front port)

MiCOM P225

Page 49/52

N.B.: If the configuration of the pre-time and post-time corresponds to
total recording duration of more than 2.5 seconds then the post-
time duration is automatically reduced so that the total recording
duration is 2.5 seconds.
Disturbance recordings are not erasable. They are managed in a
circular list: when this is full, the oldest recording is erased.
The data registered in non volatile memory are available for 1 year
without auxiliary power, thanks to a back-up battery housed in the
front face.
When the disturbance recordings are extracted from relay P225
using the MiCOM S1 support software, they are stored in the
COMTRADE format.
4.12.3 The CB MONITORING submenu display of the values related to the cut-off device
In this menu the operator with access to data relating to the cut-off device:
Summation of the amps exponent n switched by the cut-off device for each phase.
Total number of operations of relay RL1
Opening time of the cut-off device.
N.B.: These data are those calculated by the relay P225 whilst in the CB
SUPERVISION menu the operator with access to the adjustment
of the parameters to generate alarm data when a threshold is
exceeded.
The way in which relay P225 calculates its data is explained in the
section CB SUPERVISION .
4.13 ALARM messages
The management of the alarms is carried out directly on the front face screen. The display of
alarm messages takes priority over that of the value by default (selected in CONFIG.
SELECT submenu), so that as soon as an alarm is detected by the, the message is
displayed on the MiCOM P225 relay screen.
The alarm messages are classified into 2 categories:
- Motor alarm message
- Relay hardware or software fault, or RTD/thermistor failure message.
The display of a HARDWARE ALARM message takes priority over the display of a MOTOR
ALARM message.
N.B.: Upon loss of auxiliary power supply, the alarm messages disappear.
They are restored upon return of the power supply. The MOTOR
ALARM messages
4.13.1 The ALARM menu
Data considered as motor alarm are displayed in the MOTOR ALARMS menu.
If several alarms appear, they are written to memory in the order of their detection. They are
displayed in reverse chronological order (the most recent alarm first, the oldest last). Each
message is numbered and the total number of messages is indicated.
Example
This message indicates an earth fault (time delayed threshold tIo>>). This alarm is the 2nd
out of total of 7.
t I0>> 2/7

The operator can read all of the alarm messages using the ! key, without any necessity to
key in the pass word.

Page 50/52

MiCOM P225

The operator can acknowledge the alarms using the " key. Keying in the password is not
necessary. The operator can acknowledge each message one at a time, or acknowledge all
the messages by going to the end of the list and acknowledging all the messages by
pressing the " key.
N.B.: If an alarm has not been acknowledged, it will not be possible to view
the default display programmed by the operator.
4.13.2 The HARDWARE ALARM messages
The safety and availability of the MiCOM P225 relay can be improved by a cyclic autotest
procedure of both hardware and software. Each time the P225 relay is switched on, auto-
diagnostic tests are initiated: these tests deal with the output relays (engaging/triggering
tests), the microprocessor, the memories (EEPROM checksum calculation, RAM tests) and
the acquisition circuit of each analogue input.
The hardware faults are split into 2 groups:
- Minor faults: these are faults classified as non serious (communication fault, analogue
output fault, 3.6V battery, RTD or thermistor failure and internal clock).
- Major faults: these are serious faults (RAM fault, EEPROM data fault, EEPROM
calibration fault, analogue signal acquisition fault, watchdog fault).
Any major fault recorded is immediately the subject of an alarm and provokes the activation
of the WATCHDOG relay (relay WD, terminals 35-36-37), as well as the switching off of the
other output relays.
The acknowledged alarms are all written to memory in the order of their appearance. The
display of the alarms is ensured in reverse chronological order (the most recent alarm first,
the least recent last). Each message is numbered and the total number of messages is
indicated in the top left hand corner of the display.
The operator can read all of the alarm messages using the ! key, without any necessity to
key in the password.
The acknowledgement of the relay hardware alarm messages is IMPOSSIBLE. Only the
disappearance of the cause of the alarm will provoke their acknowledgement.
The display of a hardware fault (equipment fault) takes priority over the other alarms (non
equipment fault).
N.B.: In the case of major hardware alarm and when the trip output relay
RL1 has been configured latched, this relay drops out too.

5. AUXILIARY FUNCTIONS
5.1 Event records
The MiCOM P225 relay records 75 state changes in non-volatile memory and dates with a
1ms accuracy. For each state change (event) the relay gives the date, time and label.
This applies to any change of state of the logic inputs/outputs, the alteration of one or
several setting parameters, alarm or triggering data. Please refer to Chapter CT-
Communications for more information.
The recordings of the consignment of states can be downloaded:
- or using the MiCOM S1 support software (RS232 front port)
N.B.: The data are recorded in non volatile memory and are available for
one year without auxiliary power, thanks to a back-up battery
housed in the front face.
These consignments are not erasable. They are managed in a
circular list: when this is full, the change of state of the oldest is
erased.
5.2 Recording of the form of the starting current and voltage
The MiCOM P225 relay records the form of current and voltage of the latest start. In order to
do this, it records every 5 cycles (every 100 ms if the frequency is at 50 Hz) the maximum
value of one of the three line currents, and the value of the line-line voltage V
A-C
. The values
recorded are expressed in True RMS values.
The recording is initiated following detection by the relay of an motor start up, it stops at the
end of the tl
start
time delay allocated to the start up.
The file containing the recording of the form of the starting current can be repatriated on a
PC:
- or using the MiCOM S1 support software (RS232 front port). The data will be stored in
COMTRADE format.
N.B.: The data are recorded in non volatile memory and are available for
one year without auxiliary power, thanks to a back-up battery
housed in the front face.
The maximum duration of a recording is limited to 200 seconds.
5.3 Standard remote control via the RS485 communications port
In the AUX OUTPUT RLY sub-menu, it is possible to assign the ORDER1 information to one
or several output relays.
A communications command (via the RS485 port) issues the ORDER1 information, which is
latched during a fixed 200ms period.
5.4 Block start via the RS485 communications port
In the AUX OUTPUT RLY sub-menu, it is possible to assign the ORDER2 information to one
or several output relays.
A communication command (via the RS485 port) issues the ORDER2 information which is
latched until another communication command (via the RS485 port) makes the first one drop
off.
Inserting an output relay, to which the ORDER2 information has been assigned, into the start
coil circuit allows a supervisor to remotely block/authorise a motor re-start.

1. INTRODUCTION
The MiCOM P225 relays are fully numerical in design and employ a high degree of self-
checking. Any fault affecting a hardware or software component is instantly detected and
signalled as a device fault.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY WORK ON THE EQUIPMENT, THE USER
SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH THE CONTENTS OF THE "HANDLING AND
SAFETY" SECTION.

Page 4/18

MiCOM P225

2. MAINTENANCE PERIOD
It is recommended that products supplied by AREVA T&D receive regular monitoring after
installation. As with all products some deterioration with time is inevitable. In view of the
critical nature of protective relays and their infrequent operation, it is desirable to confirm that
they are operating correctly at regular intervals.
MiCOM P225 relays are self-supervising and so require less maintenance than earlier
designs. Most problems will result in an alarm so that remedial action can be taken.
However, some periodic tests should be performed to ensure that the relay is functioning
correctly and that the external wiring is intact.
If a Preventive Maintenance Policy exists within the customer's organisation, the
recommended product checks should be included in the regular programme.
Maintenance periods will depend on many factors, such as:
! the operating environment
! the accessibility of the site
! the amount of available manpower
! the importance of the installation in the power system
! the consequences of failure

MiCOM P225

Page 5/18

3. MAINTENANCE CHECKS
Although some functionality checks can be performed from a remote location by utilising the
communications ability of the relays, it is recommended that maintenance checks are
performed locally.

The alarm status LED should first be checked to identify if any alarm conditions exist. If so,
press the read key ! repeatedly to step through the alarms. Clear the alarms to extinguish
the LED(s) provided the original cause no longer exists.
3.2 Logic inputs
The logic inputs (opto-isolators) can be checked to ensure that the relay responds on
energisation.
This test checks that all 6 opto-isolated outputs of the MiCOM P225 are functioning correctly.
Energise the logic inputs one at a time with voltage V, with the terminal numbers in
accordance with the table below.
The status of each opto-isolated input can be viewed in the "OP.PARAMETERS" menu. "1"
indicates an energised input, "0" indicates a de-energised input.

TD Technical Specifications, paragraph 6.3 "Logic inputs" in this
Technical Guide.
3.3 Output relays
3.3.1 Maintenance mode
The output relays can be individually controlled by setting the MiCOM relay to Maintenance
mode.
! The MiCOM relay can be switched to Maintenance mode either:
# by using the MiCOM S1 software, or
# by remote control via the RS485 communication port (refer to Chapter CT
Communication in this Technical Guide).

Page 6/18

MiCOM P225

! While the MiCOM relay is in Maintenance mode:
# All protective functions are disabled
# All automation functions are disabled
# All output relays are off (including the watchdog relay)
# The ALARM LED flashes
# The MAINTENANCE MODE alarm appears
# Communication via RS232 and/or RS485 ports is once more available.
! When the MiCOM relay is in Maintenance mode:
# A remote control signal is used to energise the required output relays
# Another remote control signal must be sent to de-energise the output relays.
! Once the output relay tests are completed, reset the MiCOM relays to normal
operation mode
# by using the MiCOM S1 software, or
# via the RS485 communication port.
3.3.2 Testing the output relays
Connect a continuity tester across the terminals of each output contact to check the correct
contact position (open/closed circuit) as in the table below.
The state of each output relay (1: energised/0: standby) is given in the "OP. PARAMETERS"
menu.

4. EXCHANGING THE RELAY
The case and the rear terminal blocks have been designed to facilitate removal of the relay
without having to disconnect the scheme wiring.
BEFORE CARRYING OUT ANY WORK ON THE EQUIPMENT, THE USER
SHOULD BE FAMILIAR WITH THE CONTENTS OF THE "HANDLING
AND SAFETY" SECTION.
The method is to replace the withdrawable part, but it may be necessary to replace the
complete relay (with the case):.
4.1 Remove the withdrawable part
To remove the withdrawable part, lift the upper flap on the front panel to reveal a slot in the
centre towards the top. Using a screwdriver (approx. 3 mm cross-section) insert it in the hole
in the middle of the slot then move the screwdriver from right to left. This moves a cam which
has the effect of moving the withdrawable part of the MiCOM relay a few centimetres.
Lift the lower flap on the front panel. Proceed as above. The withdrawable part can now be
easily removed from the case.
Upper flap
Lower flap
P0432ENa

Before replacing the withdrawable part in the case, reset the 2 opposing cams.
N. B.: - MiCOM P225 relays have integral current transformer shorting
switches which will close when the withdrawable part is removed.
- In case of fuse-contactor controlled by a voltage loss coil, do not
remove the withdrawable part if the contactor is closed. In fact,
removing the withdrawable part will break the power circuit for the
voltage loss coil, causing the opening of the contactor.

Page 8/18

MiCOM P225

4.2 Exchanging the relay and the case
BEFORE WORKING AT THE REAR OF THE RELAY, ISOLATE ALL
VOLTAGE AND CURRENT SUPPLIES TO THE RELAY.
DISCONNECT THE RELAY EARTH CONNECTION FROM THE REAR OF
THE CASE.
NOTE: The use of a magnetic-bladed screwdriver is recommended to
minimise the risk of the screws being left in the terminal block or lost.
WITHDRAW THE RELAY FROM THE PANEL, RACK, ETC. CAREFULLY
AS IT WILL BE HEAVY OWING TO THE INTERNAL TRANSFORMERS.
TO REINSTALL THE REPAIRED OR REPLACEMENT RELAY, FOLLOW
THE ABOVE INSTRUCTIONS IN REVERSE, ENSURING THAT EACH
TERMINAL BLOCK IS RELOCATED IN THE CORRECT POSITION AND
THE CASE EARTH IS REPLACED.

MiCOM P225

Page 9/18

5. CHANGING THE BATTERY
MiCOM P225 relays have a battery to maintain status data and the correct time if the
auxiliary supply voltage fails. The data maintained includes event, fault and disturbance
records and the thermal state at the time of failure.
Instructions for replacing the battery
Open the lower flap on the front of the relay.
Gently extract the battery from its location. If necessary, use a small screwdriver to prise the
battery free.
Ensure that the metal terminals in the battery location are free from corrosion, grease and
dust.
Place the replacement battery in position ensuring that the polarity is correct.
NOTE: Only use a AA Lithium battery with a voltage rating of 3.6V.
ENSURE THAT THE BATTERY IS SECURELY HELD IN ITS LOCATION.
CLOSE THE LOWER FLAP ON THE FRONT OF THE RELAY.
Battery disposal
The battery which has been removed should be disposed of in accordance with the disposal
procedure for Lithium batteries in the country in which the relay is installed.

6. EQUIPMENT FAILURE: HARDWARE ALARMS
6.1 Types of equipment failure
As soon as an internal fault (i.e. an equipment failure) is detected in the MiCOM relay:
! An alarm is displayed as a priority on the front panel display.
! The "Warning" fault LED is illuminated:
# constant (major failure)
# flashing (minor failure)
! The equipment failure relay (WD) is closed (only for major faults).
Equipment failures can be divided into 2 types, minor and major.
An equipment failure (minor or major) cannot be acknowledged on the front panel using the
keypad. Only the disappearance of the cause will acknowledge the fault and the associated
alarm.
6.1.1 Minor faults
The following hardware alarms are considered minor faults:
# COMM. ERROR
# CLOCK ERROR
# RAM ERROR
# ANALOG OUTPUT ERROR
# RTD/Therm ERROR
# BATTERY ERROR
The protective relay continues to function in the event of a minor equipment failure.
6.1.2 Major faults
The following hardware alarms are considered major faults:
# EEPROM ERROR DATA
# EEPROM ERROR CALIBR.
# CT/VT ERROR
The protective relay ceases to function in the event of a major equipment failure, the
protective and automation components are disabled and all output relays are de-energised:
the equipment failure relay (WD) is off, as are all other output relays if already energised
even if programmed "latched".

MiCOM P225

Page 11/18

6.2 Equipment failures and solutions
6.2.1 COMM. ERROR
Communication module failure via RS485 port. This can be a hardware or software failure.
Action:
# If communication is not being used, declare communication OFF in the
COMMUNICATION menu.
# If communication is being used, remove the withdrawable part and return it to the
factory for repair.
6.2.2 CLOCK ERROR
This alarm appears if there are problems accessing the clock or there is an inconsistency in
the date being read.
Action:
If the alarm persists, remove the withdrawable part and return it to the factory for repair.
6.2.3 RAM ERROR
This alarm appears if the result of the checksum calculation in safeguarded RAM is incorrect.
The data in RAM will be considered inconsistent and will be lost.
This alarm may appear after downloading a new firmware version, after loss of the auxiliary
power supply while the relay was writing to safeguarded RAM or if there is a RAM hardware
fault.
Action:
Press button C on the relay front panel to clear the alarm.
If the alarm persists, de-energise then re-energise the relay.
If the alarm still persists, remove the withdrawable part and return it to the factory for repair.
As this is a minor alarm, it is possible to disable monitoring (which clears the alarm) by
setting "BATTERY ALARM" to NO (ALARM CONFIG. sub-menu.)
6.2.4 RTD/Therm ERROR
This alarm appears if:
# The impedance measured at the relay detector input terminals is outside a certain
range. This may be due to short-wiring or an open circuit or a disconnected RTD.
# The RTD monitoring board is faulty or wrongly fitted.
Action:
Check that the RTD's declared in the RTD sub-menu [49/38] or THERMISTOR sub-menu
[49] are correctly wired to the MiCOM relay.
Check the connection wiring for each RTD (short-wiring, open circuit).
After removing the withdrawable part, check that the RTD board is correctly connected to the
rest of the relay.

Page 12/18

MiCOM P225

6.2.5 BATTERY ERROR
This alarm appears if the 3.6 V Lithium battery located on the front panel is flat, missing or
incorrectly positioned.
Action:
Check that the battery is present.
Check the state of the battery (voltage higher than 3.5 V?).
Check the state of the relay contacts between the battery and the CPU board.
As this is a minor alarm, it is possible to disable monitoring (which clears the alarm) by
setting "BATTERY ALARM" to NO (ALARM CONFIG. sub-menu.)
6.2.6 EEPROM ERROR DATA
Hardware failure.
Action:
Remove the withdrawable part and return it to the factory for repair.
6.2.7 EEPROM ERROR CALIBR.
Hardware failure.
Action:
6.2.8 CT/VT ERROR
Hardware failure.
Action:

7. PROBLEM SOLVING
7.1.1 Password lost or not accepted
Problem:
Password lost or not accepted
Cause:
MiCOM P225 relays are supplied with the password set to: AAAA
This password can be changed by the user (refer to the OP. PARAMETERS menu).
Action:
There is an additional unique recovery password associated with the relay which can be
supplied by the factory or service agent if provided with details of the model and serial
number (under the upper flap on the front panel). Contact your AREVA local dealer or the
AREVA T&D After Sales Department with the serial number (phone: 33 (0)4 67 20 55 55).
7.1.2 Communication
7.1.2.1 Values measured locally and remotely
Problem:
Values measured locally and remotely (via RS485 communication) differ.
Cause:
The values accessible on the front panel via the MEASUREMENT menus are refreshed
every second. Those fed back via communication and accessible via the AREVA T&D
setting software generally have settable refresh frequencies. If the refresh frequency of the
supervision software differs from that of the MiCOM relay (1s), there may be a difference
between the indicated values.
Action:
Adjust the refresh frequency for the measurements of the supervision software or the
support software to 1 second.
7.1.2.2 MiCOM relay no longer responds
Problem:
No response from the MiCOM relay following a request by the supervision software: no
communication fault message.
Cause:
Normally this type of problem is linked to a configuration error in the MiCOM relay
communication parameters.
Action:
Check that the MiCOM relay communication parameters (data rate, parity, etc.) are in
accordance with the supervision software.
Check the MiCOM relay network address.
Check that this address is not used by another device connected on the same LAN.
Check that the other devices on the same LAN respond to supervision requests.

Page 14/18

MiCOM P225

7.1.2.3 A remote control signal is not taken into account
Problem:
Communication between the relay and the PC is OK but the MiCOM relay will not accept
remote control signals nor setting file downloads.
Cause:
Normally this type of problem is because the MiCOM relay is in programming mode, i.e. the
user has entered the password.
Action:
Wait for deactivation of the password. Deactivation occurs 5 minutes after the keypad is last
used.

1. MODBUS PROTOCOL
The MiCOM P225 relay offers MODBUS
TM
RTU mode communication via a rear RS485 port.
1.1 MODBUS communication characteristics
1.1.1 MODBUS network characteristics
The MODBUS protocol is based on the master-slave principle with the MiCOM P225 relay as
slave.
The MODBUS protocol allows the master to read and to write one or several bits, one or
several words and to remote the event logging data.
The access to the network can be :
! either according to a query/response principle
Equipment
Slave
Equipment
Slave
Equipment
Slave
Response
Query
Master
P0211ENa

! or according to a broadcast message sent from the master to all the slaves.
Equipment
Slave
Equipment
Slave
Equipment
Slave
Broadcast
message
Master
P0212ENa

in that case :
! compulsory, the broadcast message is a writing order,
! the slaves return no response,
! the protocol is RTU mode. Each byte of the data frame is coded according to a
hexadecimal base.
! At the end of each frame, two bytes of CRC16 validity checksum are applied on the
whole of the frame content.

Page 4/52

MiCOM P225

1.1.2 Parameters of the MODBUS connection
The different parameters of the MODBUS connection are as follows :
! Isolated two-point RS485 connection (2kV 50Hz).
! MODBUS line protocol in RTU mode.
! The baud rate can be configured by operator dialogue in the front panel of the relay :
Baud rate
300
600
1200
2400
4800
9600
19200
38400
! Transmission mode of the configurable parameters by operator dialogue :
Transmission mode
1 start / 8 bits / 1 stop : total 10 bits
1 start / 8 bits / even parity / 1 stop : total 11 bits
1 start / 8 bits / odd parity / 1 stop : total 11 bits
1 start / 8 bits / 2 stop : total 11 bits
1.1.3 Synchronisation of exchange messages
Any character received after a silence on the line with more or equal to a transmission time
of 3 bytes is considered as a frame start.
1.1.4 Message validity check
The validation of a trame is performed with a 16-bit cyclical redundancy check (CRC). The
generator polynomial is :
1 + x + x
15
+ x
16
= 1010 0000 0000 0001 binary = A001h
1.1.5 Address of the MiCOM relays
The address of the MiCOM relay on a same MODBUS network is situated between 1 and
255. The address 0 is reserved for the broadcast messages.

MiCOM P225

Page 5/52

1.2 MODBUS functions of the MiCOM relays
The MODBUS functions implemented on the MiCOM relays are :
Function 1 or 2 : Reading of n bits
Function 3 or 4 : Reading of n words
Function 5 : Writing of 1 bit
Function 6 : Writing of 1 word
Function 7 : Fast reading of 8 bits
Function 8 : Reading of the diagnosis counters
Function 11 : Reading of the Event counter
Function 15 : Writing of n bits
Function 16 : Writing of n words
1.3 Presentation of the MODBUS protocol
MODBUS is a master-slave protocol whereby every exchange involves a master query and a
slave response.
1.3.1 Frame size received by the MiCOM P225 relay
Frame transmitted by the master (query) :
Slave number Function code Information CRC16
1 byte 1 byte n bytes 2 bytes
0 to FFh 1 to 10h
Slave number :
The slave number is situated between 1 and 255.
Function code :
Requested MODBUS function (1 to 16).
Information :
Contains the parameters of the selected function.
CRC16 :
Value of the CRC16 calculated by the master.
NOTA : The MiCOM relay does not respond to globally broadcast frames sent
out by the master.

Page 6/52

MiCOM P225

1.3.2 Format of frames sent by the MiCOM P225 relay
Frame sent by the MiCOM relay (response) :
Slave number Function code Data CRC16
1 byte 1 byte n bytes 2 bytes
1 to FFh 1 to 10h
Slave number :
Function code :
Processed MODBUS function (1 to 16).
Data :
Contains the response data to master query.
CRC16 :
Value of the CRC16 calculated by the MiCOM relay.
1.3.3 Messages validity check
When the MiCOM relay receives a master query, it validates the frame :
# If the CRC is false, the frame is invalid. The MiCOM relay does not reply to the query.
The master must retransmit its query. Excepting a broadcast message, this is the only
case of non-reply by the MiCOM relay to a master query.
# If the CRC is correct but the MiCOM relay can not process the query, it sents to the
master a exception response.
Exception frame sent by the MiCOM relay (response) :
Slave number Function code Error code CRC16
1 byte 1 byte 1 byte 2 bytes
1 to FFh LSB ... MSB
Slave number :
Function code :
The function code returned by the MiCOM relay in the exception frame is the code in which
the most significant bit (bit7) is forced to 1.
Error code :
Among the 8 exception codes of the MODBUS protocol, the MiCOM relay manages two of
them :
# code 01 : Function code unauthorised or unknown.
# code 03 : A value of the data field is unauthorised (incorrect code).
! Control of pages being read.
! Control of pages being written.
! Control of address in pages.
! Length of request messages.
CRC16:
The CRC16 value is calculated by the slave.

1.5 Modbus request definition used to retrieve the event records
Two ways can be followed to retrieve an event record :
! Send a request to retrieve the oldest non-acknowledge event.
! Send a request to retrieve a dedicated event.
1.5.1 Request to retrieve the oldest non-acknowledge event
xx 03h 36h 00 00 09h xx............xx
EVT_EN_COURS_ECRIT (5) : An event is being written into the saved RAM.
NOTA : On event retrieval, two possibilities exist regarding the event record
acknowledgement :
- a) Automatic event record acknowledgement on event retrieval.
- b) Non automatic event record acknowledgement on event retrieval.
a) Automatic event record acknowledgement on event retrieval :
The bit12 of the remote order frame (format F9 mapping address 0400h) shall be set to 0.
On event retrieval, this event record is acknowledged.
b) Non automatic event record acknowledgement on event retrieval :
On event retrieval, this event record is not acknowledged.
To acknowledge this event, an other remote order shall be sent to the relay. The bit 13 of
this frame (format F9 mapping address 0400h) shall be set to 1.
1.5.2 Request to retrieve a dedicated event
EVT_EN_COURS_ECRIT (5) : An event is being written into the saved RAM.
NOTA : This event retrieval does not acknowledge this event.

Conversion rules for the current values of the disturbance record
F58 * In order to obtain the phase current value at phase CT primary, apply the following formula :
Primary phase current value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary phase CT value x )2 /
800

* In order to obtain the earth current value at the earth CT primary, apply the following formula :
Primary earth current value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary earth CT value x )2 /
32700

* In order to obtain the phase-phase voltage value at the line VT primary, apply the following formula :
Primary voltage value (in Amps)
= Remote value x Primary VT/Secondary VT ratio x )2 x (100/internal voltage denominator
ratio

With : internal voltage denominator ratio = 12600 for 57-130 V voltage input range
internal voltage denominator ratio = 3400 for 220-480 V voltage input range

Conversion rules for the current values of the fault data record
F59 * In order to obtain the phase current value at phase CT primary, apply the following formula :
Primary phase current value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary phase CT value / 800

* In order to obtain the negative sequence component value of the current at phase CT primary, apply
the following formula :
Primary negative current value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary phase CT value /
800

* In order to obtain the earth current value at the earth CT primary, apply the following formula :
Primary earth current value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary earth CT value /
32700

* In order to obtain the phase-phase voltage value at the line VT primary, apply the following formula :
- For 57-130 V voltage input range
Primary voltage value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary VT value / 127576
- For 220-480 V voltage input range
Primary voltage value (in Amps) = Remote value x Primary VT value / 3406

1. GENERAL
1.1 Reception of the relays
Protection relays are generally robust. However it is appropriate to treat them with care
before installing them on site. As soon as they arrive, the relays should be examined
immediately, looking for any deterioration which could have occurred during transport. If
there is any deterioration, make a claim against the forwarding company and inform AREVA
T&D as soon as possible.
Relays not intended for immediate installation must be stored in their protective polyethylene
packaging.
1.2 Electrostatic discharge (ESD)
Relays use components sensitive to electrostatic discharges. The electronic circuits are well
protected by the metal housing. Consequently, the internal module must not be taken out
pointlessly. When handling the module outside its housing, be very careful to avoid any
contact with electrical connections and components. If it is removed from its housing for
storage, the module must be placed in electrically conductive antistatic packaging.
No configuration setting is possible in the module. We therefore advise you not to dismantle
it pointlessly. The printed circuit boards are interconnected. They are not designed for
disconnection by the user. Avoid touching the printed circuit boards. They are made with
complementary metal-oxide semiconductors (CMOS) and the static electricity discharged by
the human body has an adverse effect on them.

Page 4/12

MiCOM P225

2. HANDLING ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
The usual movements of a person easily generate electrostatic energy which may reach
several thousand volts. The discharging of this voltage into devices comprising
semiconductors, when handling electronic circuits, can cause severe deterioration. Such
damage is not necessarily visible immediately. Nevertheless, it reduces the reliability of the
circuit.
Electronic circuits are completely protected against any electrostatic discharge when inside
their housing. Do not expose them to any risk by needlessly taking the modules out of their
housings.
Each module has the best possible protection for its devices consisting of semiconductors.
However, should it be necessary to withdraw the module from its housing, please take the
following precautions to preserve the great reliability and long service life for which the
equipment was designed and manufactured.
1. Before taking the module out of its housing, touch the housing to balance your
electrostatic potential.
2. When handling the module, hold it by its front plate, or by its frame or by the edges of
the printed circuit board. Do not touch the electronic components, the printed circuit
conductors and the connectors.
3. Before passing the module to another person, shake hands with him or her for
example to balance your electrostatic potential.
4. Place the module on an antistatic surface or an electrically conductive surface with the
same potential as yourself.
5. To store or transport the module, place it in conductive packaging.
If you carry out any measurements on the internal electronic circuits of a device in service,
earth yourself to exposed conductive parts by linking yourself to the housing by a conductive
strap attached to your wrist. The resistance to earth of the conductive strap which you
attach to your wrist and to the housing must be between 500 k! and 10 M!. If you do not
have a device of this type, you must remain permanently in contact with the housing to
prevent any static energy accumulating. The instruments used to take the measurements
must be earthed to the housing insofar as this is possible.
For further information on the procedures for safe working with all the electronic equipment,
please consult standards BS5783 and IEC 147-OF. In a special handling area we strongly
advise you to undertake a detailed analysis of the electronic circuits and working conditions
according to the BS and IEC standards mentioned above.

MiCOM P225

Page 5/12

3. INSTALLING THE RELAYS
The relays are supplied either individually or mounted in a cubicle. If separate relays have to
be installed according to a particular drawing, please follow the mounting details indicated in
publication R7012. If a MMLG test unit has to be incorporated, position it to the right of the
set of relays (looking at them from the front). The modules must still be protected in their
metal housings during installation on a cubicle. The design of the relays makes it possible to
reach the mounting holes easily without taking off the cover. For individually mounted
relays, a positioning diagram is normally supplied to indicate the centre of the holes and the
layout of the cubicle. The corresponding dimensions are also indicated in publication
P225/EN BR/Cb.

Page 6/12

MiCOM P225

4. UNPACKING
When unpacking and installing relays, take great care to avoid damaging the parts and
changing the settings. Relays must be handled only by people who are experts in this field.
As far as possible, the installation must remain clean, dry, free from dust and free from
excessive vibration. The site must be well lit to facilitate inspection. Relays removed from
their housings must not be exposed to dust or humidity. To this end, it is necessary to take
great care when installing relays whilst construction work is taking place on the same site.

MiCOM P225

Page 7/12

5. STORAGE
If the relays do not have to be installed immediately on reception, they must be stored
protected against dust and humidity in their original carton. If dehumidifying crystals are
placed in the relay packaging, it is advisable not to remove them. The effect of the
dehumidifying crystals is reduced if the packaging is exposed to ambient conditions. To
restore their original effectiveness, you need only to heat the crystals slightly for around an
hour, before replacing them in their delivery carton.
As soon as the packaging is opened, the dust which has accumulated on the carton risks
settling on the relays. In the presence of moisture, the carton and the packaging can
become humidified to the point where the effectiveness of the dehumidifying crystals is
reduced.
The temperature for storage should remain between - 25 "C and + 70 "C.

6. SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY, PLEASE READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE
DOING ANY WORK ON THE MICOM P225 RELAY.
Health and safety
The safety instructions described in this document are intended to guarantee correct
installation and use of the MiCOM P225 relay and to avoid any damage. All persons directly
or indirectly concerned with the use of these devices must be familiar with these safety
instructions.

MiCOM P225

Page 9/12

7. INSTALLATION, COMMISSIONING AND MAINTENANCE
7.1 Connection of the MiCOM P225 relay
The personnel in charge of the installation, commissioning and maintenance of a MiCOM
P225 relay must apply adequate procedures to guarantee safety when using the equipment.
Before installation, commissioning or maintenance on the equipment, consult the relevant
chapters in the technical documentation of the relay.
The terminal blocks of the relays may have a dangerously high voltage during installation,
commissioning or maintenance, if electrical isolation is not carried out.
Access to the connectors at the rear of the relays can present risks of electrocution and
thermal shock.
Before you consider energization, the MiCOM P225 relay must be connected to earth via the
terminal provided for this purpose.
Unless otherwise indicated in the technical data chapter of the product documentation, the
minimum size recommended for the earth wire is 2.5 mm
2
.
Before energising your MiCOM P225 relay, please check the following points:
# Rated voltage and polarity of the auxiliary power supply
# Current value of the current transformer circuit and integrity of the connections
# Integrity of the earth connection.
7.2 Operating conditions of the MiCOM P225 relay
The operation of the MiCOM P225 relay must comply with the electrical and environmental
requirements described in this document.
7.3 Replacement of the batteries
The internal batteries, if used, must be replaced by batteries corresponding to the type
recommended. They must be installed with the correct polarity, to avoid any risk of damage
to the equipment.
7.4 Current transformer circuits
Never open the auxiliary circuit of a live current transformer. The high voltage produced may
cause serious physical injury and damage the insulation of the equipment.
7.5 Dielectric withstand test
Following an insulation test, the capacitors may still be charged with a potentially dangerous
voltage. At the end of each part of the test, the voltage must be progressively brought down
to zero to discharge the capacitors before disconnecting the test wiring.
7.6 Removal and destruction of the MiCOM P225 relay
7.6.1 Removal
The auxiliary power supply circuit of the relay can include capacitors for the power supply or
for earthing. To avoid any risk of electrocution or thermal shock, it is appropriate to isolate
the relay completely (the two direct current poles) from any power supply, then to discharge
the capacitors in complete safety via the external terminals, before taking the device out of
service.

Page 10/12

MiCOM P225

7.6.2 Destruction
It is recommended that the relay should not be incinerated nor thrown into a river. MiCOM
relays and their components should be disposed of and recycled strictly in compliance with
regulations on safety and the environment. Before destruction, remove the batteries, taking
the necessary precautions to avoid any risk of electrocution.
