Protections
Phase overcurrent (ANSI 50/51) Three-phase protection against overloads and phase-to-phase short-circuits. The protection comprises four units: c IDMT or definite time, c instantaneous or time-delayed. Sepam 1000+ offers a number of tripping curves: c definite time (DT), c IDMT. The IDMT curves also include a reset time which is used for: c detection of restriking faults, c coordination with electromechanical relays. Earth fault (ANSI 50/51N or 50/51G) Connection and equipment earth fault protection. Earth faults may be detected by: c three phase currents (3I sum), c a special core balance CT, CSH120 or CSH200, according to the required diameter; this method provides the highest sensitivity. Selection between two ratings (2 A and 20 A) provides a very wide setting range. c a current transformer (1 A or 5 A), combined with a CSH30 interposing ring CT. The protection comprises four units: c IDMT or definite time, c instantaneous or time-delayed. The characteristic curves are the same as those for the phase current overcurrent protection. Each set point has a reset time setting (by an adjustable timer hold with definite time characteristic) that allows restriking faults to be detected. Each set point has a 2 nd harmonic restraint in order to ensure stability during transformer energizing. Negative sequence / unbalance (ANSI 46) Protection against phase unbalance. Sensitive protection against 2-phase faults on long feeders. Protection of equipment against temperature build-up caused by an unbalanced supply or wrong phase rotation or the loss of a phase and protection against low levels of phase-to-phase overcurrent. IDMT or definite time characteristics. Thermal overload (ANSI 49) Protection of equipment against thermal damage caused by overloads. The thermal capacity used is calculated according to a mathematical model which takes into account: c RMS current values, c ambient temperature. The function comprises: c an adjustable alarm set point, c an adjustable tripping set point, v transformer application. The model takes into account the transformer heat rise and cooling time constants according to whether natural or forced ventilation is used (ONAN, ONAF) by logic input. v motor application. The model takes into account: - two time constants: the heat rise time constant, used when the motor is running, and the cooling time constant, used when the motor is stopped, - effect of negative sequence current on rotor heating. An additional setting may be used to adapt the protection to fit the motor thermal withstand given by the experimental hot and cold curves provided by the equipment manufacturer. The thermal protection may be inhibited by a logic input when this is required by the process running conditions. Phase undercurrent (ANSI 37) Protection of pumps against the consequences of a loss of priming. The protection detects time-delayed current drops that correspond to motor no-load operation, characteristic of the loss of pump priming.
Sepam 1000+
Excessive starting time / locked rotor / (ANSI 48/51LR) (1) Protection of motors that are liable to start with overloads or insufficient supply voltage and/or that drive loads that are liable to jam (e.g. crushers). The locked rotor function is an overcurrent protection that is only confirmed after a time delay that corresponds to the normal starting time. Starts per hour (ANSI 66) (1) Protection against overheating caused by too frequent starts. Checking of the number of: c starts per hour (or adjustable time period), c consecutive starts. The protection inhibits motor energizing for a preset time period once the permissible limits have been reached. Recloser (ANSI 79) Automation device used to reclose the circuit breaker after tripping triggered by a transient fault on a line (the function includes 4 parameterizable reclosing cycles). Thermostat, Buchholz (temperature, gas and pressure detector) Protection of transformers against temperature rises and internal faults via logic inputs linked to devices integrated in the equipment. Temperature monitoring (RTDs) (ANSI 38/49T) Protection against abnormal overheating of motor windings and/or bearings equipped with RTDs. The protection includes 2 independent set points that are adjustable for each RTD. Positive sequence undervoltage (ANSI 27D), (ANSI 47) Motor protection against malfunctioning due to insufficient or unbalanced supply voltage. Detection of phase rotation. In order for this protection to be used, voltage transformers must be connected to Sepam to measure U21 and U32. Remanent undervoltage (ANSI 27R) Monitoring of the clearing of voltage sustained by rotating machines after circuit opening. The protection is used to prevent transient electrical and mechanical phenomena that are caused by fast re-energizing of motors. It monitors phase-to-phase voltage U21 or phase-to-neutral voltage V1. Phase-to-phase undervoltage (ANSI 27) Protection used either for automated functions (transfer, load shedding) or to protect motors against undervoltage. The protection monitors the drop in each of the phase-to-phase voltages being metered. Phase-to-neutral undervoltage (ANSI 27S) Protection used to detect phase-to-earth faults (in isolated neutral systems). Overvoltage (ANSI 59) Protection against abnormally high voltage or checking that there is sufficient voltage for power supply transfer (set point 1) and checking of phase-to-phase voltages U32 and U21 (set point 2). Neutral voltage displacement (ANSI 59N) Detection of insulation faults in ungrounded systems by measurement of neutral voltage displacement. The protection is generally used with transformer incomers or busbars. The function includes 2 set points. Overfrequency (ANSI 81H) Protection against abnormally high frequency. Underfrequency (ANSI 81L) Detection of variances with respect to the rated frequency, in order to maintain a high quality power supply. The protection may be used for overall tripping or for load shedding. Rate of change of frequency / ROCOF (ANSI 81R) Protection used for fast disconnection of a source feeding a power network when a fault occurs or to check load shedding.

Control and monitoring
Sepam 1000 + performs the basic control and monitoring functions necessary for the operation of the electrical network, thereby reducing the need for auxiliary relays. The control and monitoring functions may be parameterized using the SFT 2841 software package, however each type of Sepam has parameter setting by default which allows easier commissioning in the most frequent cases of use. Two control modes are available c Integrated circuit breaker control. This logical function deals with all the circuit breaker making and breaking conditions based on position data, external control and recloser protection functions, etc c Individual parameter setting of output relays. Control of output relays according to an allocation matrix. Breaking device control Sepam is used to control breaking devices equipped with different types of closing and tripping coils: c circuit breakers with shunt trip or undervoltage trip units (parameter setting on front panel (1) or via SFT 2841), c latching contactors with shunt-trip units. Output relay control (standard or fail-safe) may be set. By default, the program logic is adapted to control a circuit breaker with a shunt trip unit. Open and close control via the communication link. Latching / acknowledgment (ANSI 86) Output relay latching may be parameterized. Latched tripping orders are stored and must be acknowledged in order for the device to be put back into service. The user acknowledges via the keypad or remotely via a logic input or the communication link. Inhibit closing (ANSI 69) Sepam inhibits the closing of the circuit breaker or contactor according to the operation conditions. Inhibit thermal protection Thermal protection tripping may be inhibited via a logic input. Re-acceleration Allows a logic input to take into account the restarting of an unstopped motor. Remote tripping Circuit breakers or contactors may be remotecontrolled via a logic input or via the communication link. Inhibit remote control A logic input inhibits the circuit breaker remote control mode via the communication link. Switching of settings groups Used to switch from on group of phase current and earth fault protection settings to another one. The switch may be made by a logic input or via the communication link.
Logic discrimination (ANSI 68) This function allows quick, selective tripping of the phase overcurrent and earth fault protection relays, whether definite time or IDMT, without requiring the use of time intervals between upstream and downstream protection devices. The downstream relay transmits a blocking input signal if the protection devices set points are exceeded. The upstream relay receives the blocking input signal on the logic input, used for the inhibition function. A saving mechanism ensures the operation of the protection in the event of an inhibition link failure. Annunciation (ANSI 30) Sepam indicates the appearance of alarms by: c signal lamps on the front panel, c messages on the display. The addressing of the signal lamps may be parameterized. The sequence is as follows (advanced UMI): c when an event appears, the signal lamp goes on and the related message is displayed, c the user presses the clear key to erase the message, c after the fault disappears and the reset key is pressed, the signal lamp goes off and the protection is reset, c the list of alarm messages remains accessible ( key) and may be cleared by pressing the clear key. Remote annunciation Used to remote information via the communication link. Information such as circuit breaker position, SF6 fault alarm, etc. Trip circuit supervision Detects trip circuit faults (shunt trip units). Detects open/closed position discrepancy faults (undervoltage trip units). Watchdog Indicates Sepam unavailability. Output relay testing This function is used to activate each output relay (1).

Phase overcurrent
ANSI code 50-51 The phase overcurrent function comprises 4 independant elements divided into two groups of 2 elements called Group A and Group B respectively. The use of the two groups may be chosen by parameter setting: c operation with Group A or Group B exclusively, with switching from one group to the other dependent on the state of logic input I13 exclusively, or by remote control (TC3, TC4), I13 = 0 group A I13 = 1 group B c operation with Group A and Group B active for 4-set point operation, c enabling/disabling of each group of 2 elements (A, B). Operation Phase overcurrent protection is three-pole. It picks up when one, two or three of the phase currents reaches the operation set point. It is time-delayed. The time delay may be definite time (DT) or IDMT according to the curves opposite. Definite time protection Is is the set point express in amperes, and T is the protection operating time delay.

Earth fault
ANSI code 50N-51N or 50G-51G The earth fault function comprises 4 independant elements divided into two groups of 2 settings called Group A and Group B respectively. The use of the two elements may be chosen by parameter setting: c operation with Group A or Group B exclusively, with switching from one group to the other dependent on the state of logic input I13 exclusively, or by remote control (TC3, TC4), 13 = 0 group A 13 = 1 group B c operation with Group A and Group B active for 4-set point operation, c enabling/disabling of each group of 2 elements (A, B). Operation Earth fault protection is single-pole. It picks up when the earth fault current reaches the operation set point. It is time-delayed. The time delay may be definite time (DT) or IDMT according to the curves opposite. The protection integrates a 2nd harmonic restraint which provides greater stability when the transformers energize (measurement of residual current by the sum of the 3 phase CTs). The restraint inhibits tripping, whatever the fundamental current. The restraint may be inhibited by parameter setting. Definite time protection Is is the operating set point expressed in amperes, and T is the protection operation time delay.
The Iso setting is the vertical asymptote of the curve, and T is the operation time delay for 10Iso. The tripping time for I/Iso values less than 1.2 depends on the type of curve selected. curve designation standard inverse time (SIT) very inverse time (VIT or LTI) extremely inverse time (EIT) ultra inverse time (UIT) RI curve IEC SIT / A IEC VIT or LTI / B IEC EIT / C IEEE moderately inverse (IEC / D) IEEE very inverse (IEC / E) IEEE extremely inverse (IEC / F) IAC inverse IAC very inverse IAC extremely inverse type 1.2 1.2 1.2 1.2 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1

Thermal overload
ANSI code 49 This function is used to protect equipment (motors, transformers, generators, lines, capacitors) against overloads, based on measurement of the current consumed.
effective when the machine is running than when it is stopped. Running and stopping of the equipment are calculated from the value of the current: c running if I > 0.1 Ib, c stopped if I < 0.1 Ib. Two time constants may be set: c T1: heat rise time constant: concerns equipment that is running, c T2: cooling time constant: concerns equipment that is stopped. Accounting for harmonics The current measured by the thermal protection is an RMS 3-phase current which takes into account harmonics up to number 17. Accounting for ambient temperature Most machines are designed to operate at a maximum ambient temperature of 40. The thermal overload function takes into account the ambient temperature (Sepam 1000+ equipped with the temperature sensor option (1)) to increase the calculated heat rise value when the temperature measured exceeds 40. Increase factor: fa = T max - 40 T max - T ambient
Operation
Operation curve The protection gives a trip order when the heat rise E, calculated according to the measurement of an equivalent current Ieq, is greater than the set point Es. The greatest permissible continuous current is I = Ib Es The protection tripping time is set by the time constant T. The calculated heat rise depends on the current consumed and the previous heat rise state. c The cold curve defines the protection tripping time based on zero heat rise. c The hot curve defines the protection tripping time based on 100% nominal heat rise.
T max is the machines maximum temperature. T ambient is the measured temperature.
Adaptation of the protection to motor thermal withstand Motor thermal protection is often set based on the hot and cold curves supplied by the machine manufacturer. To fully comply with these experimental curves, additional parameters must be set: c initial heat rise, Eso, is used to reduce the cold tripping time.
leq 2 - Eso t modified cold curve: = Log Ib 2 T leq Ib - Es

c a second group of parameters (time constants and set points) is used to take into account thermal withstand with locked rotors. This second set of parameters is taken into account when the current is greater than an adjustable set point Is. Accounting for negative sequence current In the case of motors with coiled rotors, the presence of a negative sequence component increases the heat rise in the motor. The negative sequence component of the current is taken into account in the protection by the equation leq = Iph + K. Ii

Start inhibit The thermal overload protection can inhibit the closing of the motors control device until the heat rise drops back down below a value that allows restarting. This value takes into account the heat rise produced by the motor when starting. The inhibition function is grouped together with the starts per hour protection and the indication START INHIBIT informs the user. Saving of heat rise When the protection trips, the current heat rise, increased by 10 %(1), is saved. The saved value is reset to zero when the heat rise decreases sufficiently for the time before starting to be zero. The saved value is used when the power returns after a Sepam power failure, so as to start up again with the heat rise that triggered tripping.

increasing by 10 % makes it possible to take into account the average heat rise of motors when starting.
Inhibition of tripping Tripping of the thermal overload protection may be inhibited by logic input I26 (according to parameter setting) when required by the process. Accounting for two operating rates A power transformer often has two operating modes (e.g. ONAN and ONAF). The two groups of parameters in the thermal overload protection take into account these two operating modes. Switching from one mode to the other is controlled by a logic input I26 (according to parameter setting). It is done without losing the heat rise value. User information The following information is available for the user: c time before restart enabled (in case of inhibition of starting), c time before tripping (with constant current), c heat rise.

Example of thermal overload settings for a motor

Example 1
The following data are available: c time constants for on operation T1 and off operation T2: v T1 = 25 min, v T2 = 70 min. c maximum curve in steady state: Imax/Ib = 1.05. Setting of tripping set point Es2 Es2 = (Imax/Ib) 2 = 110% Please note: if the motor absorbs a current of 1.05 Ib in steady state, the heat rise calculated by the thermal overload protection will reach 110%. Setting of alarm set point Es1 Es1 = 90% (I/Ib = 0.95). Knegative: 4.5 (usual value) The other thermal overload parameters do not need to be set. They are not taken into account by default.
For an overload of 2*Ib, the value t/T1 = 0.0339 (2) is obtained. In order for Sepam to trip at the point 1 (t = 70 s), T1 is equal to 2065 sec 34 min. With a setting of T1 = 34 min, the tripping time is obtained based on a cold state (point 2). In this case, it is equal to t/T1 = 0.3216 t 665 sec, i.e. 11 min, which is compatible with the thermal resistance of the motor when cold. The negative sequence factor is calculated using the equation defined on page 34. The parameters of the second thermal overload relay do not need to be set. They are not taken into account by default.
Example 3
The following data are available: c motor thermal resistance in the form of hot and cold curves (see solid line curves in Figure 1), c cooling time constant T2, c maximum steady state current: Imax/Ib = 1.1. Setting of tripping set point Es2 Es2 = (Imax/Ib)2 = 120% Setting of alarm set point Es1 Es1 = 90% (I/Ib = 0.95). The time constant T1 is calculated so that the thermal overload protection trips after 100 s (point 1). With t/T1 = 0.069 (I/Ib = 2 and Es2 = 120%): T1 = 100s / 0.069 = 1449 sec 24 min. The tripping time starting from the cold state is equal to: t/T1 = 0.3567 t = 24 min*0.3567 = 513 s (point 2). This tripping time is too long since the limit for this overload current is 400 s (point 2). If the time constant T1 is lowered, the thermal overload protection will trip earlier, below point 2. There risk that motor starting when hot will not be possible also exists in this case (see Figure 2 in which a lower Sepam hot curve would intersect the starting curve with U = 0.9 Un). The Es0 parameter is a setting that is used to solve these differences by lowering the Sepam cold curve without moving the hot curve. In this example, the thermal overload protection should trip after 400 s starting from the cold state.
Example 2
The following data are available: c motor thermal resistance in the form of hot and cold curves (see solid line curves in Figure 1), c cooling time constant T2, c maximum steady state current: Imax/Ib = 1.05. Setting of tripping set point Es2 Es2 = (Imax/Ib) 2 = 110% Setting of alarm set point Es1: Es1 = 90% (I/Ib = 0.95). The manufacturers hot/cold curves (1) may be used to determine the heating time constant T1.

Use of the additional setting group When a motor rotor is locked or is turning very slowly, its thermal behavior is different from that with the rated load. In such conditions, the motor is damaged by overheating of the rotor or stator. For high power motors, rotor overheating is most often a limiting factor. The thermal overload parameters chosen for operation with a low overload are no longer valid. In order to protect the motor in this case, excessive starting time protection may be used. Nevertheless, motor manufacturers provide the thermal resistance curves when the rotor is locked, for different voltages at the time of starting.
By setting Es0 = 31%, point 2 is moved downward to obtain a shorter tripping time that is compatible with the motors thermal resistance when cold (see Figure 3). Please note: A setting Es0 = 100% therefore means that the hot and cold curves are the same.

In order to take these curves into account, the second thermal overload relay may be used. The time constant in this case is, in theory, the shortest one: however, it should not be determined in the same way as that of the first relay. The thermal overload protection switches between the first and second relay if the equivalent current Ieq exceeds the Is value (set point current).

Excessive starting time, locked rotor

0.1Ib excessive starting time locked rotor Case of normal starting. ST
Operation This function is three-phase. It comprises two parts: c excessive starting time: during starting, the protection picks up when one of the 3 phase currents is greater than the set point Is for a longer period of time than the ST time delay (normal starting time), c locked rotor: v at the normal operating rate (after starting), the protection picks up when one of the 3 phase currents is greater than the set point Is for a longer period of time than the LT time delay of the definite time type. v locked on start: large motors may have very long starting time, due to their inertia or the reduce voltage supply. This starting time is longer than the permissive rotor blocking time. To protect such a motor LTS timer initiate a trip if a start has been detected (I > Is) or if the motor speed is zero. For a normal start, the input I23 (zero-speed-switch) disable this protection. Motor re-acceleration When the motor re-accelerates, it consumes a current in the vicinity of the starting current (> Is) without the current first passing through a value less than 10% of Ib. The ST time delay, which corresponds to the normal starting time, may be reinitialized by a logic data input for particular uses (input I22). c reinitialize the excessive starting time protection, c set the locked rotor protection LT time delay to a low value. Starting is detected when the current consumed is 10% greater than the Ib curent.

Starts per hour

ANSI code 66
The number of consecutive starts is the number starts counted during the last P/Nt minutes, Nt being the number of starts allowed per period. The motor hot state corresponds to the overshooting of the fixed set point (50% heat rise) of the thermal overload function. When the motor re-accelerates, it undergoes a stress similar to that of starting without the current first passing through a value less than 10% of Ib, in which case the number of starts is not incremented. It is possible however to increment the number of starts when a re-acceleration occurs by a logic data input (input I22). Block diagram
Operation This function is three-phase. It picks up when the number of starts reaches the following limits: c maximum number of starts allowed per period of time (P) (Nt), c maximum allowed number of consecutive hot starts (Nh), c maximum allowed number of consecutive cold starts (Nc), c the function indicates the number of starts still allowed before the maximum, if the protection has not picked up. The number of starts depends on the motors thermal state, c waiting time before a start is allowed, if the protection has picked up. Starting is detected when the current consumed becomes greater than 10% of the Ib current.

Recloser
ANSI code 79
Recloser initialization The recloser is ready to operate if all of the following conditions are met: c "circuit breaker control" function activated and recloser in service, c circuit breaker closed, c inhibition time delay not running, c none of the recloser inhibition conditions is true (see below). Cycles c Case of a cleared fault: v if, after a reclosing order, the fault does not appear after the disengaging time delay has expired, the recloser reinitializes and a message appears on the display (cf. example 1). c Case of a permanent fault, not cleared: v after the instantaneous or time-delayed protection has tripped, the isolation time delay associated with the first active cycle starts up. When it runs out, a closing order is given and this order starts up the disengagement time delay. If the protection detects the fault before the end of the time delay, a trip order is given and the next reclosing cycle is activated, v if the fault persists after all the active cycles have taken place, a permanent trip order is given, a message appears on the display and closing is inhibited until the user has acknowledged the fault, according to the protection parameter setting. c Closing on a fault If the circuit breaker closes when the fault occurs, or if the fault appears before the end of the inhibition time delay, the recloser is inhibited. Recloser inhibition conditions The recloser is inhibited according to the following conditions: c close or trip command, c recloser disabled, c receipt of an inhibition order on inhibition input I26, c appearance of a fault related to the switchgear, such as trip circuit or control fault, c receipt of an external tripping order via inputs I21, I22 or I23.

IDMT protections
The operation time depends on the protected variable (phase current, earth fault current, ). Operation is represented by a characteristic curve: c t = f(I) curve for the phase overcurrent function, c t = f(Io) for the earth fault function. The rest of the document is based on t = f(I), but the reasoning can be extended to other variables such as Io, The curve is defined by: c type (standard inverse, very inverse, extremely inverse..), c Is current setting which corresponds to the vertical asymptote of the curve, c T time delay setting which corresponds to the operation time for I = 10 Is. The 3 settings are made in the following chronological order: type, Is current, T time delay. Changing the T time delay setting by x% changes all of the operation times in the curve by x%. Examples of problems to be solved Problem 1 Knowing the type of IDMT, determine the Is current and T time delay settings. Theoretically, Is current is set to the maximum current that can be continuous: it is generally the rated current of the protected equipment (cable, transformer). T time delay is set to the operation point at 10 Is on the curve. This setting is determined taking into account the discrimination constraints with respect to the upstream and downstream protection devices. The discrimination constraint leads to the definition of a point A on the operation curve (IA, tA), e.g. the point that corresponds to the maximum fault current affecting the downstream protection. Problem 2 Knowing the type of IDMT, the Is current setting and a point k (Ik, tk) on the operation curve, determine the T time delay setting. On the standard curve of the same type, read the operation time tsk that corresponds to the relative current: Ik Is and the operation time Ts10 that corresponds to the relative current: I = 10 Is
The time delay setting that should be made in order for the operation curve to pass through point k(Ik, tk) is: T = Ts10 x tk tsk

Another practical method: The chart below gives the values of: I ts K= as a function of Is ts10 tsk In the column that corresponds to the type of time delay, read the value K = Ik Ts10 in the line that corresponds to Is The time delay setting to be used so that the operation curve pasees through tk the point k(Ik, Tk) is: T = K Example Given: c type of time delay: standard inverse time (SIT) c set point: Is c a point k on the operation curve: k (3.5 Is; 4 s) Question: what is the T time delay setting (operation time at 10 Is)? Chart reading: SIT column I line = 3.5 Is k = 1.86 Answer: the time delay setting is: T = 4 1.86 Problem 3 Knowing the Is current and T time delay settings for a type of time delay (standard inverse, very inverse, extremely inverse), find the operation time for a current value of IA. On the standard curve of the same type, read the operation time tsA that corresponds to the relative current: IA Is and the operation time Ts10 that corresponds to the relative current: I = 10 Is The operation time tA for the current IA with the Is and T settings is: tA = tsA x T Ts10

Example Given: c type of time delay: very inverse time (VIT) c set point: Is c T time delay = 0.8 s Question: what is the operation time for the current IA = 6 Is? Chart reading: VIT column line I Is = 6
Is The operation time tA for the current IA with the Is and T settings is tA = K.T

Control and monitoring functions (contd)
Logic discrimination
Use This function is used to obtain: c full tripping discrimination, c a substantial reduction in delayed tripping of the circuit breakers located nearest to the source (drawback of the classical time-based discrimination function). The system applies to the definite time (DT) and IDMT (standard inverse time SIT, very inverse time VIT, extremely inverse time EIT and ultra inverse time UIT) phase overcurrent and earth fault protections.
With this type of system, the time delays should be set with respect to the element to be protected without considering the discrimination aspect.

When a fault occurs in a radial network, the fault current flows through the circuit between the source and the location of the fault: c the protection devices upstream from the fault are triggered, c the protection devices downstream from the fault are not triggered, c only the first protection device upstream from the fault should trip. Each Sepam is capable of transmitting and receiving blocking input orders except for motor* Sepams which can only transmit blocking input orders. When a Sepam is triggered by a fault current: c it transmits a blocking input order from output O3 (1), c it trips the associated circuit breaker if it does not receive a blocking input order on input I13 (2). Transmission of the blocking input lasts for the time required to clear the fault. It is interrupted after a time delay that takes into account the breaking device operation time and the protection reset time. This system makes it possible to minimize the duration of the fault, optimize discrimination and guarantee safety in downgraded situations (wiring or switchgear failures).
e.g. radial distribution with use of time-based discrimination (td: tripping time, definite time curves).

Parameter and protection settings
Protection settings
The Sepam 1000+ can be set: c via the front panel when Sepam 1000+ is equipped with the advanced UMI function. Function keys (blue) may be used to navigate in the menu and to scroll and accept the displayed values. Main functions performed: v changing of passwords, v entry of general parameters, v entry of protection settings. c via a PC equipped with the SFT 2841 software package connected to the front panel for all types of Sepam 1000 +. Menus guide the user through the different phases of parameter and protection setting by a series of windows suited to each operation. The SFT 2841 software package may be used for Sepam 1000 + parameter and protection setting in connected or unconnected mode. The unconnected mode allows all the parameter settings to be prepared ahead of time and loaded in a single operation when the Sepam 1000 + is connected on site (downloading). Main functions performed by the SFT2841: c changing of passwords, c entry of general parameters (ratings, integration period, ), c entry of protection settings, c changing of program logic assignments, c enabling/disabling of functions, c saving of files.
