INTRODUCTION
About the Relay
MCOMP is designed as a reliable building block for Motor Control Centres
(MCCs) and a product designed to provide complete motor protection. It
covers conventional & advanced motor protection, metering and
annunciation in MCC feeders into single, easy to configure, compact
communicating module with a optional OLED Display. The MCOMP is used
as a protection controller for Low-voltage Contactor Controlled Motor
Starter Feeders.
Reason for Motor Protection

Electric motors are the major operands of any industry. These motors come
in with a wide variety of ratings, types and applications. Depending on the
criticality of the process or application, the motor protection is selected.
Motor Protection is required for the following reasons:
Varying Input Voltages and Load Currents
• Motor is a rotating equipment and its performance is dependent on the
availability of tolerable levels of input voltages and variable loads. Faults
occur when either of these parameters fluctuates. Therefore, motor
protection controllers are designed to monitor key parameters of the motor
to alert the operator of a condition of outage or damage.
Varying Starting Condition
• The protection controller must be able to differentiate between starting
condition and running condition.
• During starting condition, a motor has starting current of about 550-700
% of its full load current, with a starting time usually ranging from 1 to 10
seconds.
• It should be able to monitor pre-start conditions of the motor to prevent
starting of motor under unfavorable conditions like inadequate thermal
capacity available and voltage unhealthiness.
• It should check the pre-start, starting and running conditions of the motor
completely for safe operation of the motor.
MCOMP as a Numerical Microprocessor Equipped Controller, allows a user
to set parameters of the motor according to the application and process
requirements.

Product Overview
The MCOMP facilitates following benefits to users:
• Flexible protection, control and communication options to suit any low
voltage contactor controlled motor starter application.
• Integrated push button and LED indicators reduce external components
and wiring.
• Multiple communication protocols allow affordable integration to larger
and complex Substation monitoring & control systems.
• The Relay comes with its own high accuracy current module eliminating
the three conventional CTs required for each phase. The built in 4-20 mA
Analog Output eliminates the need of transducer for remote metering.
This reduces the overall module size making it more compact and cost
effective.
• Reset push button is available on the Relay and the Display thereby
reducing the need for one DI to be configured as Reset (Auto reset option
is available for thermal overload and under-voltage protection).
• The optional OLED Display is provided with the Relay for display of all
metering, protection and related parameters.
• Conformal coating on the PCB inside the Relay resists the corrosive
environment, hazardous chemicals, dust, etc,. and increases the life &
reliability of the product.

Current Module (CM)

CM, provided with MCOMP, is used for 3-phase current sensing in motor
starters ranging from 0.375 kW. Requisite connecting cable for connection
of CM to the Relay is supplied along with the CM. Only one CM is required
(up to 45 kW) for metering and protection, reducing the space which is
required for conventional CTs in the module.
There are two different sizes of CM, covering five different current ranges as
shown in Table 2–3.
Table 2-3 : CM Type and Range
CM Type IFLC Range Motor Rating for 415V System
CM - 1 0.6 to 2.0 A 0.375 to 1.125 kW
CM - 2 1.8 to 5.4 A 1 to 3 kW
CM – 3 4.5 to 13.5 A 2.5 to 7.5 kW
CM – 4 12.6 to 37.8 A 7 to 21 kW
CM - 5 36 to 81 A 20 to 45 kW
With external Up to 600 A Up to 333 kW

conventional CT
While selecting CM, it is strictly recommended to match the IFLC of the motor specified by
motormanufacturer with CM IFLC range.
Motor rating in kW specified above is with considering approximate scale factor of 1.8
between motor rating and IFLC.
For IFLC range higher than 81A, conventional CTs are required along with MCOMP CM. CM1
andCM2 is used when secondary of conventional CT is 1 A and 5 A respectively.

be connected to a single relay main unit.
Getting Started
For understanding the full functionality of the Relay a basic knowledge is
required. It includes powering-up the Relay, setting date & time for recording
of events/trips records.
The steps to be followed are shown below:
1. For powering-up the Relay, check for the power supply requirement
mentioned on the side label: 80-240 V AC/DC or 24 V DC.
2. Check for polarity of power supply as L/+ (Relay terminal 72/Display
terminal 75) and N/- (Relay terminal 71/Display terminal 76) on the Relay/
Display.
3. Once powered on, the motor status LED on the Relay and PWR/COMM
LED on the Display glows.
4. If Display is present in the system, ensure a proper connection is
established between the Relay and the Display. After connection, the
Display shows logo screen followed by metering screen within 3 seconds.
This ensures healthy communication between the Relay and the Display.
5. Set date and time of the Relay from Display Menu (Refer System Settings

Current Module (CM) Wiring

The Relay is provided with its own CM. CM is available in 5 types.
• CM has pass through arrangement, through which the motor supply
wires (R, Y and B) enters (all three wires should enter from same side)
in to the CM before connecting to the motor.
• The connecting wire from CM to the Relay is of two types based on
its length (0.5 m and 1 m).
• In case of sensitive earth fault, CBCT is used. The 3-phase supply to
the motor passes through CBCT which senses the earth fault current
under abnormal conditions. This is used as an input by the Relay to
measure earth fault current. Figure 4–25 shows CM wiring.
• In case where external conventional CTs are required to sense the
current if the motor IFLC is greater than 81 A, the connection will be
as shown in Figure 4–26. Based on the secondary of external CT,
MCOMP current module is selected for the required application.

METERING AND MONITORING
Overview
This chapter describes the various parameters available in the Relay for
metering and monitoring. The Relay measures real-time values of Current,
Voltage, Power, Analog Output, Temperature and monitors motor specific
data like Phase Sequence, Motor Status, etc,.
All values measured by the Relay can be accessed using following interfaces:
• Display

Metering
Current Based Metering
RMS Line Current
The Relay measures RMS values of line currents (Ir, Iy and Ib) through CM.
Ir: Current flowing through R phase
Iy: Current flowing through Y phase
Ib: Current flowing through B phase
Earth Fault Current
Earth Fault Current is an unbalanced current flowing through the neutral of
the 3-phase system. In case of 3-phase system, under healthy conditions,
Earth Fault current will be zero. It is present only when Earth Fault occurs.
The Relay measures the Earth Fault current in following ways.
Vector Summation
Earth Fault Current is equal to the vector sum of three line current values. It
is calculated using formula:
Ie = Ir + Iy + Ib
Where Ie is Earth Fault Current.
CBCT (Core Balance Current Transformer)

CBCT is used for earth leakage and sensitive Earth Fault conditions. The 3-
phase supply to the motor passes through CBCT which senses the Earth

CHAPTER 6
PROTECTIONS
Overview
This section provides a detailed description about the various faults possible
in the motor; their causes and the preventive measures taken by the Relay to
protect the motor. Alarm is an indication which requires immediate
attention. It indicates a need for corrective action to prevent fault
occurrence. It may result into serious implications if not noticed. The alarm-
related parameters can be configured for most of the protection functions.
The Relay responds to an Alarm in following ways:
• The alarm gets activated upon the occurrence of any fault.
• The cause and time for the Alarm/Pickup will be recorded.
• Alarm/Pickup LED glows Amber.
• The Relay counts and records the number of Alarm/Pickup conditions.
The Relay responds to a fault in following ways:
• On the Relay, trip LED glows Red.
• On the Relay, motor status LED glows Amber.
• DO of the Relay used for starter will go LOW.
• DO of the Relay used for tripping will go HIGH.
The Relay stores the data for the cause of fault along with the parameters
such as time of fault, source of fault and corresponding values of Current,
Voltage, Earth Current, Temperature, Power Factor and Frequency. The Relay
keeps a count for the number of faults occurred and stores five events & five
trip records which can be viewed by the user at any point of time.
The Relay clears the alarm/pickup whenever the measured value drops below
the Alarm/Pickup Reset threshold.

Pickup Set: A setting limit for the monitored parameter that triggers Pickup
of a protection function. Pickup set is calculated using formula:
Pickup Set = Pickup Set in % of corresponding parameter
= (Pickup Set in %) X (Parameter Value)/100
Example: For Locked Rotor protection, the corresponding parameter is IFLC. If
IFLC value is 10 A, then the corresponding parameter value will be 10 A, for
Pickup Set of 150 %:
Pickup Set (IOC) = (150 x 10) / 100
Pickup Reset: A setting limit for the monitored parameter that resets
(removes) the Pickup condition when the corresponding monitored
parameter resumes to a safe value, else the Pickup condition persists. Pickup
Reset is calculated using formula:
Pickup Reset = Pickup Reset in % of corresponding parameter
= (Pickup Reset in %) X (Parameter Value)/100
Pickup Reset = Pickup Set - Hysteresis Setting
MCOMP User Manual

6-2 REV. C
Example: For Locked Rotor protection, the corresponding parameter is IOC. If

IOC value is 15 A, then the corresponding parameter value will be 15 A, for
Pickup Reset of 95 %:
Pickup Reset (IOC) = (150 x 10) / 100 = 14.25 A
Alarm Set: A limit in % for the monitored parameter that triggers a
protection function alarm. Alarm Set value is calculated using formula:
Alarm Set = Alarm Set in % of corresponding parameter
= (Alarm Set in %) X (Parameter Value)/100
IOC value is 15 A, then the corresponding parameter value will be 15 A, for
Alarm set of 90 %:
Pickup Set (IOC) = (90 x 15) / 100 = 13.5
Alarm Reset: A limit that resets the alarm condition when the corresponding
monitored parameter resumes to a safe value, else the alarm condition
persists. Alarm Reset value is calculated using formula:
Alarm Reset = Alarm Reset in % of corresponding parameter
= (Alarm Reset in %) X (Parameter Value)/100
IOC value is 15 A, then the corresponding parameter value will be 15 A. So,
for Alarm Reset of 85 %:
Alarm Reset (IOC) = (85 x 15) / 100 = 12.75 A
Trip Delay: A time limit after which the Relay issues Trip command from the
time of Pickup, if condition persists.
Trip Curve Characteristic (TCC): The Relay includes a definite trip
characteristic for all protection functions as shown in Figure 6–2, (except the
Thermal Overload function, as it has inverse trip curve characteristic shown in
Figure 6–3).
Definite TCC: The duration of the fault delay remains constant irrespective
of the changes in the value of the measured quantity (current), as described
in the Figure 6–2.
Inverse TCC: The duration of the time delay varies inversely with the value of
the measured quantity. The possibility of damage increases along with the
measured quantity and thus the time delay decreases.

Thermal Protection
The fundamental protective function of the Relay is Thermal Protection.
Thermal Capacity of the motor is the tolerable capacity that the motor can
withstand under overload condition. In normal condition, the motor
temperature will eventually stabilize at some steady state temperature
(within the limit) due to flow of steady current. Under transient and overload
conditions the Thermal Capacity of the motor rises, but within the
corresponding limits. When the overload persists for a considerable amount
of time, the motor temperature and thermal capacity will rise. A trip occurs
when the thermal capacity used by the motor reaches its 100 %.The
Thermal Capacity of motor is calculated by measuring the power circuit
currents.
Majority of the motor failures are due to overheating. There are many
reasons for increase in the temperature and Thermal Capacity of the motor.
Fault occurs mainly due to overload, operation on unbalanced condition,
poor ventilation, single phasing, short circuits, Earth Fault etc,.
Overheating of the motor damages the windings hence decrease the
efficiency and life of the motor.
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C 6-5
Overload (49)
Overload is a condition where current higher than the rated value flows to
the motor resulting in excessive heating of the motor. Rapid motor heating
occurs during the overload, acceleration time, and stall condition. The Relay
gives the Overload Protection based on calculated Thermal Memory (TM) and
gives Trip command when thermal capacity reaches its 100 %.The overload
curve controls the rate of increase of the thermal capacity used whenever
the equivalent motor heating current is greater than current set point. The
Thermal Memory is directly proportional to ISET value, which is the overload
current setting.
The Relay detects Overload condition and gives:
• an Alarm when Thermal Memory reaches above the Alarm Set value.
• Trip when Thermal Memory reaches 100%.
Pause Time Delay: Pause Time Delay is a configurable time after which the
thermal memory will be reset to zero when the Relay trips due to Overload
Protection. It is effective only when pause time setting is enabled.
Thermal Memory Reset Value: It is the value of Thermal Memory at which
the trip condition due to overload is reset when the Thermal Memory falls
below the Thermal Memory Reset Value. This setting is effective only when
auto reset functionality in case of thermal overload is enabled.
Thermal Inhibit Setting: It is the setting for which the Relay will continue to
be in inhibit mode if Thermal Memory does not falls below set Thermal
inhibit setting value. In inhibit mode, the relay will not detect any auto-start
from current or will not allow to the start the motor in case start command is
given. This setting is available for editing only through Admin mode of
MCOMP suite.
Alarm Response for this protection can be separately enabled or disabled.

Current Based Protection

Over current Protection (50P)
Over current fault is a condition where the current through the conductor
(power circuit) exceeds its preset value. This fault is usually caused due to
short circuit, load increase, improper connection, or ground fault.
The Relay detects Overcurrent condition and gives:
• an Alarm when current in any of the 3-phases reaches above the
Alarm Set value.
• Pickup when current in any of the 3-phases reaches above the pickup
value and if the Pickup condition persists it trips after the Trip delay.

Current unbalance Protection (46)

Current unbalance is a condition where the current in the 3-Phases differs in
magnitude, phase, or both. Current unbalance is usually caused due to load
unbalance or improper motor windings. Large motors can sustain minor
current unbalance in the circuit, but small motors cannot.
Current unbalance in the 3-phase circuits induces negative sequence current,
which generates negative torque causing the motor to heat up. Negative
sequence current affects the rotor by increasing the copper losses and
overheating. Current unbalance also causes pulsating magnetic field in the
stator which results in uneven force at the bearings thereby damaging the

the Current unbalance Protection settings available in the Relay.
The Relay detects Current unbalance condition and gives:
• an Alarm when unbalance of 3-phase currents goes above the Alarm
set value.
• Pickup when unbalance of 3-phase current reaches above the pickup
Current unbalance is calculated using formula:

1. When Imax > 80 % IFLC: It is unbalanced if
(Imax – Imin) / Imax > Unbalance Set Value
2. When Imax < 80 % IFLC: It is unbalanced if
(Imax – Imin) / IFLC > Unbalance Set Value
Where,

Earth Fault Protection (50N or 50SG)

Earth current calculation is done in two ways in the Relay.
1. Vector Summation
Earth Fault current is equal to the vector sum of the three line current values.
It is calculated using formula:
Ie = Ir + Iy + Ib
Where,
Ie : Earth Fault current
Ir : Current flowing through R phase
Iy: Current flowing through Y phase
Ib: Current flowing through B phase
2. CBCT (Core Balance Current Transformer)

CBCT is used for earth leakage and sensitive Earth Fault conditions. The 3-
phases supply to the motor and neutral if present passes through the CBCT
which senses the Earth Fault current under abnormal conditions. The output
of CBCT is used as an input by the Relay to measure Earth Fault current.
The Relay detects the Earth Fault condition and gives:
• an Alarm when earth current reaches above the Alarm Set value.
• Pickup when earth current reaches above the pickup value and if the
Pickup condition persists it trips after the Trip delay.

Locked Rotor Protection (50LR)

Locked rotor condition can arise during motor starting time or in motor
running condition. Stalling in starting time is taken care by separate Excessive
start time protection. Load jam in motor running condition is taken care by
Locked rotor (50LR) protection available in the Relay.
Locked Rotor current: The current drawn by the motor, when the rotor is
locked under full voltage condition. Rotor stalling is mainly due to improper
connection between the shaft and rotor, over load etc,.
MCOMP User Manual

6 - 14 REV. C
In Locked Rotor condition, the rotor gets locked due to presence of the
excessive load. As a result, the motor draws higher current to drive the
excessive load. The high current flow in the motor heats up the rotor quickly
due to skin effect.
The Relay detects jamming of the motor after starting time and gives:
• an Alarm when current in any of the 3-phases reaches above the

Phase Loss Protection (47A)

Phase Loss Protection is also known as single phase protection. Phase Loss is
a condition in the 3-phase power circuit where one phase of the supply is
not available to the motor terminals.
Phase Loss is usually due to internal causes like improper connections in the
circuit, blowing of one of the fuses, failure in switch gear contacts and
external causes like line breakages, etc,.
Due to loss of a single phase, the other two normal (healthy) phases have to
draw more current than the rated one to compensate the power. This
increases the stator current, consequently increasing the heat generated in
the windings. This leads to insulation failure which can cause further damage
to the motor.
The Relay detects Phase Loss condition and gives:
• Pickup when one of phase current falls below 10 % of rated current
(IFLC) and if the Pickup condition persists it trips after the Trip delay.
Table 6–10 lists the Phase Loss Protection settings available in the Relay.

Voltage Based Protection

Over voltage Protection (59)
Over voltage is a condition where voltage in the power circuit rises above its
preset value. Over voltage occurs usually due to internal causes like switching
surges, insulation failure, arcing ground and Phase Loss.
The Relay detects the Over voltage condition and gives:
• an Alarm when voltage of any of the 3-phases reaches above the
Alarm set value.
• Pickup when voltage of any of the 3-phases reaches above the pickup

Under voltage Protection (27)

Under voltage is a condition where the voltage in the power circuit decreases

the heavy electrical demand (during peak hours).
Under voltage fault heats up the motor, it leads to winding insulation failure,
this fails the motor permanently.
The Relay detects the Under voltage condition and gives:
• an Alarm when any of the 3-phase voltages reaches below the Alarm
set value.

Voltage unbalance Protection (47)

Voltage unbalance is a condition where the voltage in the 3-phases power
circuit differs in magnitude or phase, or both. Voltage unbalance would not
affect the motor greatly. Voltage unbalance condition occurs because of
variation in the loads, unbalanced incoming supply, due to Earth Faults etc,.
Voltage unbalance leads to unbalanced current. The effects of unbalanced
current are explained under Current unbalance Protection.
The Relay detects Voltage unbalance condition and gives:
• an Alarm when unbalance of 3-phase voltages goes above the Alarm
set value.
• Pickup when unbalance of 3-phase voltage goes above the pickup
Unbalance in 3-phases voltage is calculated using formula:

Phase reversal Protection (47B)

In 3-phase motors, the direction of motor is generally fixed according to the
application. Motor will run in reverse direction due to phase reversal. This
condition is undesirable and leads to severe damage.
Reversal of phases is mainly caused due to power interruptions in the circuit.
When motor receives power after frequent power interruption, there are
chances of reversal of phases. It may also occur when motors are
disconnected for maintenance.
The Relay detects Phase reversal condition of 3-phase voltages (if voltage
connect is enabled) or current (if voltage connect is disabled) and gives:
• Pickup and trips instantaneously when the phase sequence of the
motor supply is different from the proper set sequence.

Advanced Features
Re-acceleration (27LV)
Re-acceleration is a method where the Relay restarts the motor automatically
without user intervention for momentary voltage dips.
There are two cases in Re-acceleration:
1. Motor Re-acceleration function:
Voltage restores within 200 ms from the last voltage dip or no-
voltage condition: If there is a sudden voltage dip in the power source for
a duration of less than 200 ms then the motor should continue to run
without any interruption. The output contact of the Relay holds the contacts
for 200 ms. The motor will continue to run when voltage restores within 200
ms from the last voltage dip or no-voltage condition.
2. Motor Re-start function:
Voltage restores after 200 ms from last voltage dip or no-voltage
condition:
If the voltage dip persists for more than 200 ms, then the motor will stop. In
this case, if voltage is restored within the restart time, then voltage will be
validated for restart delay time. If the restored voltage persists for the set
restart delay, then the motor will restart. However, if the motor is tripped
due to UV fault during voltage dip condition, then after healthy restoration
of voltage, the trip will be reset and the motor will be started. Table 6–17
lists the Re-acceleration Protection settings available in the Relay.

Temperature Protection
Increase in temperature of the motor is caused mainly due to over current,
locked rotor, single phasing etc,. Increase in temperature beyond the limit
can cause insulation failure resulting in permanent breakdown of motor.
Temperature Protection is provided in the Relay through RTD or Thermistor
(PTC) input. These sensors are placed on the windings of the motor where
the temperature needs to be measured. A single RTD measures the
temperature in terms of degree Celsius. In case of PTC, relay measures the
temperature in terms of Ohmic value. Table 6–18 lists the temperature
protection settings available in the Relay.
The Relay detects high temperature condition and gives:
• an Alarm when the temperature reaches above the Alarm Set value.
• Pickup when the temperature reaches above the pickup value and if
the Pickup condition persists it trips after the Trip delay.

Fail to Stop Protection

In some cases motor fails to stop even when it receives stop command, in
this condition Fail to Stop Protection is needed. This may occur because of
improper connections and settings. This protection monitors the current
after STOP output is set. If the 3-phase current is still present for two
seconds after STOP output is set, then a Trip will be issued on Fail to Stop
Protection.
This protection is always enabled and cannot be disabled.
Interlock 1 to 12
The Relay is provided with 12 interlocks and any digital input can be
configured as an interlock. Each interlock input can be assigned a function
such as Alarm, Trip, Stop, Reset, etc,.which will be executed on the absence
of that interlock. Interlock configured as Trip causes the Relay to trip in the
event of absence of the corresponding Interlock.
Interlock functionality can be separately configured through the Display or MCOMP suite.
Communication Failure Protection

Communication failure protection provides the alarm and tripping action on
failure of communication between the Relay and the master device. The
master can be either DCS or PLC or SCADA. When "Trip only in Remote"
setting is enabled, Relay gives trip command only when motor is running in
remote mode. In case of motor running in local mode, Relay gives Alarm
signal only.
The Relay detects communication failure condition and gives:
• an Alarm when Relay does not receives any query from the master
device for the set time delay.
• trip if communication failure condition persists for the trip delay after
generation of an Alarm.

Excessive Start Protection

Excessive Start Time Protection is necessary when the motor takes more time
to start than the preset time. The motor draws high current at the starting
time (5-6 times of Full Load Current). If the motor continues to draw higher
current even after the starting time, it causes insulation failure and burning
of the windings.
The protection works on the basis of start time of the motor. It monitors the
current during the starting time and if it does not follow the proper
sequence then it will trip once starting time is over.

COMMUNICATION
Overview
The Relay has two ports for communication. The first port is the local
configuration port used to communicate with the Display and MCOMP Suite.
This communication is on L&T proprietary protocol. The second port is to
communicate with the higher level system such as EWS/DCS/SCADA. This
communication is on modbus or profibus protocol.
Communication interface is the physical connection on a device. Once the
physical connection is established, the Relay communicates with the master
on a protocol.
This section provides a detailed description of Communication Interface,
Communication Protocols and Communication Architecture of different
protocols used in the Relay.
Communication Interface
The Relay communicates with higher level system using protocols. Table 7–1

Communication Protocol
Modbus RTU
Modbus is a serial protocol which supports communication between a single
master device and multiple slave devices. In a Modbus network, the protocol
governs how each IED shall know its device address, recognize a message
addressed to it, determine the kind of action to be taken, and extract any
data or other information contained in the message. If a reply is required,
the IED will construct the reply message and send it using Modbus protocol.

Relay in a very user friendly method. With the help of these instructions, the
user can view/edit the Relay settings to suit the application. Instructions are
further supported with the help of flow charts/graphics and step-by-step
procedures. The Relay settings are saved in non-volatile memory.
The user can view/edit the following settings as per the requirement:

System Setting Parameters
System setting determines the essential configuration parameters pertaining
to the general motor characteristics, method of starting the motor, different
modes of starting of motor, etc.
Different settings available under this are as follows:
Full load Current (IFLC): It is the maximum RMS current/rated current a
motor is designed to draw in normal running condition.
Motor Rated Voltage (VL-L): It is the Average RMS line to line Voltage at
which the motor operates at peak efficiency. It is possible to directly
terminate 480 VL-L voltages on the Relay. External PT is required for
connecting voltages higher than 480 VL-L to the relay.
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C 8-1
Settings L&T Electrical & Automation
Auxiliary Supply (VAUX): It allows the selection of Power Supply connected to

MCOMP Base Unit. It is necessary to set correct value of aux supply for
calculation during power down mode.
Voltage Connect: If enabled, it provides voltage, power, energy metering
and allows detection of all voltage based protections. Frequency is detected
on the basis of R phase voltage only. When disabled, voltage, power and
energy measurement are not available apart from voltage based protections.
Trip Class: A numeric rating that correlates to the amount of time it takes to
trip the motor when an overload condition occurs according to IEC60255
curve. Refer table 6-1 for details.
Starting Time: It is the maximum time allowed by the relay to the motor to
come to running state from starting state.
The following Protection functions (both Alarm and Trip) are disabled during
this starting time:
• Overload
• Locked rotor
• Under Current
• Under Voltage
• Over current
Frequency: It is the nominal frequency supplied as detected from R phase
voltage input when “Voltage connect” setting is enabled. System frequency
can be selected either 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
Running current: It is the normal running current of the motor as % value
of full load current. Under current protection setting is dependent on this
setting.
Input Voltage Selection: It allows selection of system voltage connection
type as 3P-3W or 3P-4W. This setting is provided in System setting window
of MCOMP suite or Display and can be selected as three phase-three wire
(3P-3W) or three phase-four wire (3P-4W). Upon selection, the Nominal
voltage of the system gets set in the relay accordingly.
In case of 3P-3W, VN = VL-L and
in case of 3P-4W, VN = VL-L / √3,
where VL-L = Line to line voltage or Motor Rated Voltage selected in system
setting of the relay.
All the voltage based protection is dependent on VN and hence proper
selection of input voltage is necessary for the required function.

8-2 REV. C
Auto start and Stop detection: This setting is available for detecting the
start and stop condition of the motor when relay is used only for protection
purpose without having any control on starting and stopping of the motor.
• Auto Start Detection: In an application where the relay is used only
for metering and protection purpose and not for control operation, it
is required to sense the starting of the motor through this auto start
detection method. If enabled, the Relay senses that the motor has
started when the average current sensed rises from 10 % IFLC to 100
% IFLC within 100 ms.
• Current Auto Stop: During running condition of motor and if
enabled, the Relay senses that the motor has stopped on current auto
stop cause when all the 3-phase currents falls below 10 % of set full
load current (IFLC).The cause of the motor stop can be seen through
special commands in MCOMP suite or display.
• Voltage Auto Stop: During running condition of motor and if
enabled, the Relay senses that the motor has stopped on voltage auto
stop cause when all the 3-phase voltage falls below 10 % of nominal
voltage (VN).The cause of the motor stop can be seen through special
commands in MCOMP suite or display.
It is possible to start the motor through start command via digital input or
communication even if auto start detection is enabled.

Digital Input Output Setting Parameters

This section provides a brief description about Digital Inputs/Outputs for
performing configured operations. In addition, this section also provides
information about DIO Expansion Module used to increase the number of
DIOs.
Basic Digital Input/Output
The Relay is provided with six Digital Inputs and four Digital Outputs. DIOs
are freely configurable by the user as per the scheme. DIOs are hard-wired
connections which enable the user to remotely operate and control the
motor. These DIOs have following characteristics:
Digital Input Features
• Digital Inputs accept 80-240 V AC/DC or 230 V AC/DC or 110V
AC/DC or 24 VDC voltage input for sensing depending upon the
ordering of the Relay.
• Validation period is a user configurable debounce period provided
with each digital input in order to validate the authenticity of the
signal.
Digital Output Features
• All four Digital Outputs are potential free, change-over contacts.
• Digital outputs can be configured as either pulse mode (unlatch) or
level mode (latch). In case of pulse mode, the pulse width (hold time)
is user configurable.
• Digital Outputs can be used to drive the main power contactor
without using any auxiliary contactors.
DIO Expansion Module

DIO Expansion Module is used to increase the number of DIOs in the Relay.
DIO Expansion Modules are available in two types:
• 4DI/2DO module
• 8DI module
User can connect maximum three expansion modules to the base unit. Table
8–10 gives the all the possible combinations of DIO expansion modules that
can be used in addition with the base unit.

Digital Input Settings

The following settings are used to configure any Digital Input:
Type: This decides the functionality of input. Each input type is unique i.e.
user cannot assign one Type to two Digital input. Incase input is not used,
Type is selected as NONE.
User can select any of the digital input types as explained below:
• START1:
a. In case of DOL starter, if START1 input is applied, then configured
RUN digital output is activated (provided drive status is healthy i.e.
ready to start).
b. In case of RDOL Starter, if START1 input is applied, then configured
FORWARD relay digital output is activated (provided drive status is
healthy i.e. ready to start).
c. In case of Star/Delta Starter, if START1 input is applied, then
configured Star/Delta digital output sequence will start (provided
drive status is healthy i.e. ready to start).
d. In case of Two Speed Starter, if START1 input is applied, then
configured High Speed digital output is activated (provided drive
status is healthy i.e. ready to start).
• START2:
a. In case of DOL Starter, if L/R input is high and START2 input is applied,
configured RUN digital output is activated (provided drive status is
healthy i.e. ready to start). If L/R input is absent, RUN output will not be
activated if START2 is applied.
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C 8-9
b. In case of RDOL Starter, if input is present then configured REVERSE Relay

digital output is activated (provided drive status is healthy i.e. ready to
start).
c. In case of Star/Delta Starter, if L/R input is high and START2 input is
applied, configured Star/Delta digital output sequence will start (provided
drive status is healthy i.e. ready to start). If L/R input is absent, Star/Delta
output sequence will not be activated if START2 is applied.
d. In case of Two Speed Starter, if input is applied, then configured Low
Speed digital output is activated (provided drive status is healthy i.e.
ready to start).
• START3 & START4:

These types of input are applicable only in case of RDOL starter.
a. If L/R input is high and START3 input is applied, then configured
FORWARD RELAY digital output is activated indicating drive running in
forward direction in remote mode. If L/R input is absent, FORWARD
output will not be activated if START3 is applied.
b. If L/R input is high and START4 input is applied, configured REVERSE
RELAY digital output is activated indicating drive running in forward
direction in remote mode. If L/R input is absent, REVERSE output will not
be activated if START4 is applied.
• STOP:
Stop is a reverse logic. For any type of starter, STOP input should always be
present in order to start the drive. If input is removed, then the drive stops
immediately and goes to inhibit condition until STOP input is released i.e.
goes high. If the input is not high, relay inhibits the drive start.
• LOCAL/REMOTE:
L/R input is for deciding local and remote mode operation of the drive. If the
input is low, the relay takes it as local mode and drive can be started through
START1 input in case of DOL & Star/Delta starter or START1 & START2 input
in case of RDOL starter. Drive cannot be started through START2 input in
case of DOL & Star/Delta Starter or START3 & START4 input in case of RDOL
starter.
If the input is high, relay takes it as remote mode and drive can be started
through START2 input in case of DOL & Star/Delta starter or START3 &
START4 input in case of RDOL starter. Drive cannot be started through
START1 input in case of DOL & Star/Delta Starter or START1 & START2 input
in case of RDOL starter.
• INTERLOCK 1 to 12:
Interlock indicates healthiness of the system. If any one of interlock becomes
low, then relay acts as per the interlock configuration done.
MCOMP User Manual

8 - 10 REV. C
• ESTOP:
Emergency Stop is a Reverse Logic. If input is removed or becomes low, the
relay will STOP the motor. If this input is low, drive is allowed to start if valid
start command is present. Only on next high to low transition, relay will stop
the drive through ESTOP.
• CONTACTOR FEEDBACK 1 and 2:
After drive starting, if contactor feedback is not available within set
“contactor time”, relay will stop the drive. During running condition, if
contactor feedback becomes low, then drive will be stopped immediately.
Contactor feedback 1 is for main contactor in case of DOL starter or
FORWARD contactor in case of RDOL starter. Contactor feedback2 is for
REVERSE contactor in case of RDOL starter.
• RESET:
This input is for resetting the trip condition of the motor when “modes of
reset” in any protection is selected as “remote”. If motor is in trip condition
and ‘reset’ input becomes high, it will reset the trip. Under normal condition,
if this input becomes high, it will be simply ignored. For taking trip resetting
action Input should undergo Low to High Transition.
• TEST:
This input when high indicates relay is in test position. In test condition, all
the inhibit conditions gets ignored and start/stop operation can be
performed to check control wiring in the module.
• NONE:
When selected for an input, no action for that particular input.
Mode: This setting is available only for Digital inputs: START1, START2,
START3 and START4. Mode defines whether a particular input is to be
continuously monitored or momentarily.
Validation Period: Validation period is user configurable de-bounce period
provided with each Digital Input in order to validate the authenticity of the
signal.
Interlock Configuration: This setting is visible only when corresponding
Digital Input is configured as Interlock 1 to 12. The Interlock can be
configured as:
Disable: No action will be taken on interlock.
Alarm: If the interlock is absent then the Alarm output will be activated.
Trip: If the interlock input is absent then a Trip output will be activated after
the set trip delay.
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C 8 - 11
Interlock 1 to 12: If the interlock input is absent, Indicator 1 output will be

COMPlogic Setting Parameters

COMPLogic is a part of the MCOMP suite parameterization software.
COMPlogic provides flexibility to select any parameter as an input of the
Boolean modules and perform gate operation to get desired output. The
user can program the required logic using different modules such as truth
tables, signal conditioners, timers, and counters. Different logic gates
available in truth table are AND, OR, XOR, NOR, NAND, and Custom mode.
The user can define its own logic gate using custom mode.
COMPlogic is an important feature used to build and execute logical
schemes within the Relay. Using COMPlogic a user can:
• simplify existing physical complexities into simple logical blocks there
by reducing additional hard writing
• create cascaded logical blocks where output of one logical block can
be used as input of another logical block
• assign logical outputs as Digital outputs and also transmit them over
communication soft link on Modbus RTU, Modbus TCP/IP, Profibus
for HMI/DCS applications.

Relay Configuration through Communication

The Relay consists of three communication protocols: Profibus, Modbus RTU
and Modbus TCP/IP. Out of these three communication protocols, only
Modbus TCP/IP can be used for remote parameterization over
communication. Each parameter has its own holding register address
(Function Code 03). Holding register address for each parameter is shown in
Modbus TCP/IP Memory Map.
Procedure to configure the IFLC value through Communication:
1. Refer Modbus TCP/IP memory map for holding register address of the
particular parameter.
2. Poll particular register (40151) of IFLC to see the current value of IFLC.
3. Write required value of IFLC by considering scaling factor.
4. Poll the IFLC register.

Examples of Relay Selection and Basic Settings using Motor data

Case 1:
In an application, a Motor Protection Relay (MPR) is required for 30 kW
motor with 5DI and 4DO. MPR shall work on 230 VAC supply, shall show all
the metering values on the local panel and shall be communicable on
Modbus TCP/IP. MPR shall accept thermistor inputs for temperature sensing.
MPR shall take CBCT inputs for sensitive earth fault detection of 2A. The
motor details specified by motor manufacturer are:
• Full load Current = 53 A, Voltage = 415 V, Frequency = 50 Hz

• Locked Rotor Current = 600 % FLC
• Starting time at 100% full load = 0.2 second
• Type of Starting = Direct On Line
Solution:
Selection of MCOMP Relay:
Referring to MCOMP Order Codes, following part numbers can be selected.
• Main unit: MCOMP_MAIN_UNIT_U_T_YI_P
• Current Module: MCOMP_CURRENT_MODULE_C5_1
• Display unit: MCOMP_DISPLAY_UNIT_D1_1
Above selected relay main unit have universal aux supply, Modbus TCP/IP
communication, universal DI sensing voltage and thermistor (PTC) input port.
Current module is type-5 which covers full load current of 53 A with 1meter
CM cable. Display unit is selected of 240 aux supply with 1 meter display
cable for local panel metering. Expansion module part number is not
selected as DI/DO requirement is fulfilled by main unit itself.
To navigate to the motor Settings, follow the path shown below:

Case 2:
In an application, a Motor Protection Relay (MPR) is required for 90kW motor
with 9DI and 5DO. MPR shall work on 230VAC supply, shall show all the
metering values on the local panel and shall be communicable on Profibus.
MPR shall accept RTD input for temperature sensing. The motor details
specified by motor manufacturer are:
• Full load Current = 162A, Voltage = 415V, Frequency = 50 Hz

• Locked Rotor Current = 600 % FLC
• Max Starting time = 1 sec
• Type of Starting = Reverse Direct On Line
Solution:
Selection of MCOMP Relay:
As the required motor FLC is more than 81A, we need to use external
conventional CTs along with MCOMP CM. The external CTs should be
chosen such that FLC of the motor falls in 50% to 100% of external CT
primary. Since FLC is 162 A, a 200 :1 or 200:5 CT may be chosen. Let us
choose 200:1 CT. The MCOMP CM selection will depend on conventional CT
secondary. For 1A and 5A secondary, the required CM should be CM1 and
CM2 respectively. So CM1 is required. The expansion unit of 4DI/2DO along
with relay main unit will serve the 9DI/5DO requirement.
Referring to MCOMP Order Codes, following part numbers can be selected.
• Main unit: MCOMP_MAIN_UNIT_U_P_YI_R
• Current Module: MCOMP_CURRENT_MODULE_C1_1
• Display unit: MCOMP_DISPLAY_UNIT_D1_1
• Expansion Unit: MCOMP_EXPANSION_UNIT_A_YI_1

CHAPTER 9
USER INTERAFCE
Overview
This section provides a detailed description of local interfacing methods
available with the Relay. There are two local modes available for a user to
interface with the Relay.
• MCOMP Suite Interface.
• Display Interface.
MCOMP Suite Interface

MCOMP Suite is software available with the Relay through which a user can
monitor, control or configure the Relay, also serves as a strong diagnostic
tool for troubleshooting purpose. A PC is required to host this software
through which it can communicate with the Relay. The MCOMP Suite can be
used only after the installation of .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 or
higher.
With MCOMP Suite, it is possible to:
• monitor and meter the data: Various metering parameters such as
3-Phase Voltage, 3-Phase Current, Frequency, Phase Sequence and
parameters related to Power and Energy can be monitored. The status
of Digital inputs and outputs can also be monitored.
• program and modify the settings: The software allows a user to set
the values as per requirement.
• read actual values: A user can get the actual motor running values.
• read motor status: A user can check the status of motor - run, stop
or trip condition.
• read pre-trip & trip cause data and number of event records: A
user can get the recent 5 trip records and causes for the trips.
The MCOMP Suite can run in MCOMP offline mode as well. In this case,
settings may be saved for future use. If the Relay is connected to a computer
and communications are enabled, the Relay can be programmed from the
setting screens.

L&T Electrical & Automation Testing & Troubleshooting
CHAPTER 10
TESTING & TROUBLESHOOTING
Overview
This section allows the user to acknowledge and troubleshoot any problems
encountered during testing and commissioning of the Relay.
A complete functional check and calibration has been performed for each
unit before it is shipped to ensure that the relay is fully functional. For testing
and troubleshooting the relay at site, the reference data provided herein
helps the user to check if the relay is functioning as per the desired
specification and is properly connected in the motor feeder for the control
inputs and outputs.
Testing
The procedure described in this section helps the user to enter settings into
the relay, verify the relay connection and tests the functional behavior of the
relay. It is not necessary to test every function of the relay to verify the relay’s
behavior. Brief functional tests ensure that the relay is operational as per the
settings done in the relay.
Connection Setup Requirement

Apart from the relay main unit, CM unit and connecting cables, the 3 phase
power source like Omicron, Freza, Doble is required to test the relay.
Metering testing
Phase current and voltage:
Connect the MCOMP CM unit with the base unit with the pre-fabricated
CM cable provided with the current module unit. Pass R-Y-B phase current
cables of current source i.e. testing kit through the R-Y-B pass through holes
of MCOMP current module opening and short them with neutral of the test
kit. Wire 3 phase voltages with neutral to the voltage terminal present on
the MCOMP base unit (assuming it is 3P-4W system).
For balanced system, set the equal magnitude of all the 3 phases (current
and voltage) with balanced angles in the test kit & apply to the relay making

balanced system. The applied values should be greater than 10% of the set
IFLC and VN values. Observe the current and voltage magnitude & compare
with the expected metering by taking CT/PT ratio into consideration (if
enabled). Earth fault current, Current Unbalance in metering should be zero.
For unbalance system, set the different magnitude & angles for the all the 3
phases (current and voltage) in the test kit & apply to the relay making the
system unbalanced. Observe the current and voltage magnitude of all phases
and compare with the expected metering by taking CT/PT ratio into
consideration (if enabled).
Power, Energy & Power factor:
a. Connect both current as well as voltage source to the relay.
b. Set the magnitude of the voltage and current as per the requirement of
the system.
c. Observe the Active, Reactive and Apparent Power/Energy metering values
with the expected values by taking CT & PT ratio into consideration.
d. Observe Power factor & compare with the expected result.
Protection Testing
The protection testing of the relay can be performed on the same setup used
for metering testing. The basic protection elements needs to be enabled and
set as per the requirement and after injecting the proper values, the
protection tripping can be checked. The drive status should be as running
status for the relay to give the protection trip command after detecting the
fault. Below example shows the protection testing in case of thermal
overload.

ANNEXURE B
APPLICATION NOTES
Overview
The Relay has various settings to cater different specific application as per
the requirement. In this section some vital settings to meet the
corresponding application is explained in detail.
A] Starter Application
DOL Starter
This is the simplest and widely used type of starter. The selection of a DOL
starter is based on the rating of the motor.
Figure B-1 : DOL Starter Wiring Diagram
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C B-1
Application Notes L&T Electrical & Automation
Basic settings required in the Relay for DOL starter:

• Starter type to be selected as DOL.
• One Digital Input to be selected as START1.
• One Digital Output to be selected as RUN.
Figure B–1 shows the DOL starter wiring diagram. The connections in the
diagram are shown considering 3P-4W system. The connection may be
different for different type of system selection.
When the Relay receives START1 input, RUN output picks up after validating
all the start inhibit conditions (Refer Inhibit Status in chapter Testing and
Troubleshooting). When the RUN output is activated, the contactor picks up,
which starts the Motor. When a STOP command is received by the Relay,
RUN output drops out, contactor drops out and the motor stops.
RDOL Starter
This type of starter is used when the motor is required to run in both
forward as well as reverse directions depending upon the application.
Figure B-2 : RDOL Starter Wiring Diagram
MCOMP User Manual

B-2 REV. C
Basic settings required in the Relay for RDOL starter:

• Starter type to be selected as RDOL.
• One Digital Output to be selected as FORWARD RELAY.
• One Digital Output to be selected as REVERSE RELAY.
Figure B-2 shows the RDOL starter wiring diagram. The connections in the
When the Relay receives START1(forward start) input, FORWARD RELAY
output picks up after validating all the start inhibit conditions. When the
FORWARD RELAY output is activated, the contactor A picks up starting the
Motor in forward direction. When the Relay receives START2(reverse start)
input, REVERSE RELAY output picks up after validating all the start inhibit
conditions. When the REVERSE RELAY output is activated, the contactor B
picks up starting the Motor in reverse direction. When a STOP command is
received by the Relay, FORWARD RELAY/REVERSE RELAY output drops out,
corresponding contactor drops out and the motor stops.
When motor is running in forward direction and Relay receives START2
input, it will ignore the command and will continue to run in forward
direction. When motor is running in reverse direction and Relay receives
START1 input, it will ignore the command and will continue to run in reverse
direction.
STAR/DELTA Starter
This type of starter provides two types of connections, Star and Delta. During
starting time, the star connection reduces the high starting current and then
automatically switches to delta after set time in star setting.
Basic settings required in the Relay for STAR-DELTA starter:
• Starter type to be selected as STAR-DELTA.
• Time in Star setting to be set as per requirement.
• Star-Delta change over delay setting to be set as per requirement.
• One Digital Output to be selected as MAIN.
• One Digital Output to be selected as STAR.
• One Digital Output to be selected as DELTA.
Figure B-3 shows the Star-delta wiring diagram. The connections in the
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C B-3
Figure B-3 : STAR/DELTA Starter Wiring Diagram
When the Relay receives START1 input, MAIN and STAR output picks up
after validating all the start inhibit conditions. Also the 'time in star' timer
starts. When the MAIN and STAR output is activated, the contactor A and
contactor C picks up starting the Motor in reduced voltage condition. The
'time in star' timer expires and STAR output drops out, dropping contactor
C. The DELTA output picks up after the set 'change over delay' timer expires.
When the DELTA output is activated, the contactor B picks up and motor
comes in running condition. When a STOP command is received by the
Relay, MAIN and DELTA outputs drop out, corresponding contactors drop
out and the motor stops.
The MAIN output remains in pick up condition during change over between
STAR to DELTA.
MCOMP User Manual

B-4 REV. C
B] Non Motor Load Application

The MCOMP relay is suitable for non-motor load application as well. The
application can be of heater feeder or MCCB feeder used in case of lighting
load etc.
For such applications, one should correctly set the “Feeder type” in System
setting as “Non-Motor”.
Certain protections and related functions (alarm, trip, inhibit) are not
available in case of Non-Motor application which are as follows:
1. Thermal Overload
2. Locked Rotor
3. Current Unbalance
4. Phase Loss
5. Phase Reversal
6. Under Current
7. Maximum number of starts
8. Excessive Start Time
9. All voltage based protections and functions
Whenever there is an attempt to change in this “Feeder type” setting (in
case of drive is running or not running), the relay and display unit needs to
be power recycled for successful intended operation.
C] Re-acceleration Application
Re-acceleration is a method where the Relay restarts the motor automatically
without user intervention for momentary voltage dips. The re-acceleration or
motor restart function plays very important role in industries where the
critical motor needs to be restarted immediately (or with some delay)
without manual intervention in case of process interruption due to under-
voltage/no voltage condition.
Conventionally two aux contacts, 1ON delay and 1 OFF delay timer per
feeder is required to implement the reacceleration scheme which causes the
increase in module size, increase in cost and reduction in reliability as the
number of dependent component increases.
The MCOMP relay provides the re-acceleration function as an inbuilt feature
with no need of any additional aux contacts and external timer.
The two cases in Re-acceleration supported by MCOMP are as follows:
1. Motor Re-acceleration function:
Voltage restores within 200 ms from the last voltage dip or no-
voltage condition: If there is a sudden voltage dip in the power source for
a duration of less than 200 ms then the motor should continue to run
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C B-5
without any interruption. The output contact of the Relay holds the contacts
for 200 ms. The motor will continue to run when voltage restores within 200
ms from the last voltage dip or no-voltage condition.
2. Motor Re-start function:
Voltage restores after 200 ms from last voltage dip or no-voltage
condition: If the voltage dip persists for more than 200 ms, then the motor
will stop. In this case, if voltage is restored within the restart time, then
voltage will be validated for restart delay time. If the restored voltage persists
for the set restart delay, then the motor will restart. However, if the motor is
tripped due to UV fault during voltage dip condition, then after healthy
restoration of voltage, the trip will be reset and the motor will be restarted.
Table 6–16 lists the Re-acceleration Protection settings available in the Relay.
Table 6-16 : Re-acceleration Protection Settings
Parameter Setting range Description

Voltage Dip 20 to 90 % of VN Motor Voltage should go below/equal to
this threshold value to sense as valid
voltage dip
Voltage Restoration 60 to 95 % of VN Motor Voltage should restore higher
than or equal to this set value to sense
as valid voltage recovery
Restart Time 0.2 to 60 sec Time for which relay will wait for
voltage restoration
Restart Delay 4 to 1200 sec Validation time (healthy voltage should
sustain for this much period) before
actual starting the motor after
successful voltage recovery
Aux and Motor Supply Same and Letting know the MCOMP relay if the
Separate auxiliary supply for it is from the same 3
phase motor supply bus or it is from

Mode Enable or Disable To enable or disable motor restart
function
After healthy restoration of the voltage if all the critical motors gets restarted
at the same time, there may be a chance that the incoming feeder will again
see a power deep and trips on under-voltage. To avoid this situation, one
should group the critical motors with different priorities. The highest priority
motor group should start first and should have same restart delay settings.
The next priority motor group should then start and should have “restart
delay” setting higher than “restart delay” setting of highest priority motor
group. The wide range of “restart delay” setting present in the relay will
allow the user to configure for the staggered starting of the motors and
thereby fulfilling the requirement.
MCOMP User Manual

B-6 REV. C
Motor must be in running condition before voltage dip/no-voltage condition occurs.

Presence of any maintained stop command at the time of restart command from the Relay
will inhibit starting of the motor.
D] 3P-3W, 3P-4W Application

The MCOMP relay can be configured as per the system voltage availability.
There is a setting available as “Input Voltage” in System Setting for selection
of system voltage as 3P-3W or 3P-4W. In case of 3P-3W, R-Y-B voltage
needs to be connected to the relay voltage terminals with 4th terminal of the
relay required to be body or panel earthed. In case of 3P-4W, R-Y-B-N
voltage needs to be connected to relay voltage terminals.
Figure B-5 : 3P-3W, 3P-4W Connection Diagram
In case of 3P-3W, VN = VL-L and

in case of 3P-4W, VN = VL-L / √3,
where VL-L = Line to line voltage or Motor Rated Voltage and VN = Nominal
voltage used in the relay for protections.
All the voltage based protection is dependent on VN and hence proper
selection of input voltage is necessary for the required function.
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C B-7
E] Two Phase Voltage Inputs (R and Y phase input) Application

In certain applications where due to space constraint only two phase inputs
are required to be connected to the relay for voltage metering and
protections, the MCOMP relay comes as an intelligent option.
There is a setting available in the relay as “Phase Selection” in System Setting
for the same. When selected as two phase, there is no need to connect the
third voltage phase to the relay and relay will calculate the same internally.
Figure B-6 : Two Phase Input Connection
The terminal number 4 of the relay needs to be connected to clean earth for
intended operation of the relay in case ‘two phase’ is selected in setting.
While selection is on three phase, one needs to necessarily follow the
connections as mentioned in 3P-3W or in 3P-4W cases.
F] Winding Heating Application

In small motors (typically < 30kW) when the motors are in off condition for a
very long duration and the moisture content in the environment is high, it is
necessary to keep the motor winding warm to have proper starting of the
motor during next start. Generally 24VAC supply is provided in two windings
of the motor to achieve this with some delay after motor gets stopped.
Conventionally a separate winding heating contact with delay timer is
required to fulfill the requirement.
MCOMP User Manual

B-8 REV. C
The relay provides a dedicated output called heater output for energizing the
winding heating coil present in the feeder and gives the setting of time delay
as “heater delay” from 1 – 3600 sec in Digital output setting section. This
eliminates the need of extra timer required in the feeder to achieve the
winding heating requirement in a compact scheme.
Refer digital output settings present in chapter 9 Settings for configuration
of heater output of this application.
G] Analog Output Application

Analog meters are generally used for remote metering. In a field where
motor is present, the operator comes to know the current drawn by the
motor during running condition (or any other intended parameter such as
availability of healthy three phase voltage before motor starting) with the
help of analog meters. This meter accept the input in form of 4-20 mA
current and provides the corresponding equivalent analog scale depending
on the selected parameter.
Conventionally a separate transducer along with CT is required to provide
the 4–20 mA signal corresponding to one of the three phase current. This
increases the space requirement of the motor feeder, cost and reduces the
reliability. The required 4-20 mA signal can be generated from MCOMP as
an analog output and can be directly wired to analog meter for metering.
One user configurable 4-20 mA analog output is provided in the Relay which
can be configured to any of the parameter such as R/Y/B phase current,
R/Y/B phase voltage, power, frequency etc. The relay terminals for wiring
analog output are AO1 and AO2. It is necessary to know the loading
requirement of the device for proper operation of the relay.
Maximum Burden (load) the MCOMP relay can see without affecting its
output current of 4-20mA is 100 ohm. So the total burden on MCOMP
should be less than 100 ohm on analog output channels for intended
functionality of MCOMP analog output section. If the burden exceeds 100
ohm, variation in output current can be observed.
For calculating maximum length of wire which can be connected from
analog meter present in field (or from DCS) to the relay without affecting its
output (4-20mA), one needs to know resistivity of the wire and cross
sectional area of the wire used. The consideration of LCS meter (Analog
meter) burden or DCS terminal burden in the calculation is important for
proper functioning.
Here is the example for length calculation for copper wire having resistivity
of 1.72E-08 m and considering area of 2.5E-06 sq.m. For 500 meter length
of wire, using the standard formula of resistivity ∂L/A(R where,
=
R=resistance, ∂=resistivity, L=length, A=area), the burden offer from wire
comes to be 3.44 ohm. Considering the approximate burden of 20 ohm of
MCOMP User Manual

REV. C B-9
Analog meter (or DCS terminal), the total burden comes out to be 20 + 3.44
= 23.44 Ohm which is less than 100 ohm (MCOMP burden handle capacity).
The relay’s analog output will continue to provide correct 4-20mA signal as
long as total external burden is less than 100 ohm.
DCS burden considered for calculations is just assumption. User should consider actual
values for the calculations.
