Motor Protection Relay
Introduction
The MiCOM P225 relay performs a
full range of motor protection
functions based on the measurement
of current, voltage and temperature.
In addition to these basic functions,
the relay carries out a large number
of other functions that enable it to
protect and run the motor more
effectively.
The reliability of the system is further
enhanced via checks on bus voltage
prior to start-up, supervision of trip-
circuit wiring continuity and
protection against circuit-breaker
failure.
The MiCOM P225 relay is used
particularly in motors driving loads of
high inertia; its anti-backspin
protection ensures that the rotor stops
before the motor can be re-started.
For motors whose current supply
contains a considerable degree of
distortion, the relay provides a true
RMS base thermal image allowing
efficient protection against overload
phenomena due to the presence of
harmonic components.
The addition of power measurement
and energy metering, and the
presence of 2 analogue outputs
(current loop) make the MiCOM
P225 a highly competitive and
effective piece of equipment in terms
of price and practicality.
MiCOM P225
Protection and Control
Thermal overload (49)
True RMS base
The thermal image of the MiCOM
P225 relay allows for simultaneous
protection of the rotor and stator
windings of the motor, whatever the
operating conditions of the machine,
under and overload operating
conditions, during start-up, with rotor
locked or with the motor off.
Classic I2t thermal images afford
protection to stator windings but do
not take account of overheating in
the rotor during a current unbalance.
Similarly, the presence of harmonic
current components causes
additional overheating of the stator
windings. In order to take this
overheating properly into account,
the P225 relay separates the
negative sequence current and
reconstitutes it with the true RMS
value of the stator currents absorbed
by the motor.
The result is better protection against
overloads and hence a marked
decrease in the risk of motor
damage.
The thermal image can be corrected
by a RTD measuring ambient
temperature.
An alarm threshold, tripping
threshold and thermal threshold,
beyond which the motor cannot be
re-started, are available.

Short-circuit (50/51)
A phase overcurrent element allows
for the detection of faults between
phases. In addition to this short-circuit
threshold, a time-delayed signal and
an instantaneous signal are
available to provide better selectivity.
Excessive start time
(48/51)
Whether the motor is unloaded or
coupled to a heavy load, this
function monitors the duration of the
motor start-up phase.
The choice of the motor’s start-up
detection criteria makes it possible to
use this function, whatever the
motor’s start-up mode: eg, direct-on-
line, star-delta, auto-transformer,
resistor insertion, etc.

Locked rotor while running or
at start-up (50S/51LR)
During normal motor operation, an
overcurrent threshold detects rotor
stalling.
During motor start-up, a locked rotor
is detected with the help of a speed
switch input.
Unbalance, loss of phase and
single phasing (46)
Two overcurrent elements based on
the negative sequence component of
current are available. One is
associated with an IDMT
characteristic, while the other has a
definite time characteristic. The two
elements make it possible to
differentiate between a short or low
amplitude unbalance and a more
marked phenomenon such as loss of
phase or single phasing.

Earth fault (50N/51N)
Two zero phase sequence
overcurrent elements are available.
Each threshold has instantaneous
and delayed signal at its disposal.
The adjustment range for earth
current threshold varies from 0.002
to 1 Ion, allowing maximum
sensitivity for earth fault detection.
The relay’s earth current input can be
wired to a core balanced CT or to
the summation of the three-phase CTs.
Loss of load (37)
Loss of load, caused by shaft rupture
or the unpriming of a pump, is
detected by a timed minimum phase
current threshold. This function can
be deactivated during the start-up
phase so that the motor can
gradually increase its load.
Temperature monitoring
(38/49)
As an option, 10 RTDs can be
connected to the MiCOM P225 relay
to monitor the motor’s temperature.
For each of the 10 RTD channels,
two temperature thresholds with
individual time-delay settings are
available. It is therefore possible to
monitor stator windings separately,
as well as the spin bearings of the
motor and the load involved.
If the motor is equipped with
thermistors, the P225 relay monitors
temperature via its three thermistor
inputs.
Re-acceleration authorisation
(27 LV)
The relay can detect voltage sag via
its voltage input. Depending on the
duration of the voltage sag, the
P225 relay can authorise a re-
acceleration of the motor when full
voltage returns or, on the other hand,
stop the motor to let the motors most
critical to the process re-accelerate.
As a result, process continuity is
improved
Undervoltage (27)
1 10
12/In If voltage supply drops or is lost
completely, a phase-to-phase under
voltage threshold causes the motor to
stop. This function can be selectively
put into or out of operation during
the motor start-up phase.
Overvoltage (59)
An overvoltage threshold protects
against overvoltage and also give
warning of ageing insulators.
3
Limitation of the
number of starts,
time between starts (66)
The number of motor start-ups can be
limited. The P225 relay can
discriminate between a warm and a
cold motor, making it possible to
optimise the number of start-ups
allocated to a particular motor over
a given period of time.
Setting a minimum delay between
two start-ups avoids exposing the
motor and its start-up system to over-
large resultant stresses.
Anti-backspin
If a motor with a high inertia load,
for example a fan, is stopped, the
shaft continues to rotate for some
time before the rotor stops
completely. If the motor is switched
back on while the rotor is still turning,
something akin to a false coupling
may occur, causing mechanical
damage such as broken fan blades.
The risk of such problems can be
eliminated by setting a minimum
time-lapse between stopping the
motor and re-starting it.
Presence of bus voltage prior
to start-up
Prior to starting the motor, the P225
relay checks that voltage levels are
sufficiently high before authorising
the start-up sequence.
Emergency start-up
When required by safety conditions
or by the process, a logical input of
the P225 relay can be used to allow
motor start-up. All start-up restrictions
will then be inhibited and the
thermal image function will be
disabled.
Latching of output relays (86)
The trip order can be maintained to
avoid the risk of re-starting on an
electrical, mechanical or thermal
fault.
CB failure (50BF)
The CB failure on fault will be
detected very quickly by the P225
relay, which will then either send a
new local tripping signal or act
directly on the immediately
upstream CB.
By speeding up the time taken to
clear the fault in the case of CB
failure, the P225 relay helps
maintain the stability of the network
and the reliability of the protection
system.
Trip circuit supervision
Supervision of wiring continuity in the
trip circuit makes the system more
reliable. The relay can detect a
break in the circuit, whether the CB is
on or off.
External trips
The P225 relay accepts external
binary signals, which can be used to
give a trip or alarm signal, or which
may simply be treated as binary
information to be passed up through
the relay to a remote control system.
Logical gates
MiCOM P225 can achieve up to 4
AND logical gates linked to time
delays, by combining internal and
external information with the
protection relay. The user can also
create OR gates by individually
programming each output relay. The
logical gates help make economies
on external relaying and make the
relay interactive with the process.
Two setting groups
By virtue of its two setting groups, the
MiCOM P225 relay allows for the
protection of dual-speed motors as
well as motors operating under
environmental or operational
conditions, which are not constant
aover time. A change of setting
group can be useful following a
change in source impedance. The
result is improved selectivity.
Measurements and
Monitoring
Measurementss
The MiCOM P225 relay constantly
measures a large amount of
electrical data, such as:
• Phase current magnitude in true
RMS value: IA,IB, IC
• Neutral current magnitude in true
RMS value: IN
• Positive sequence current I1
• Negative sequence current I2
• Zero sequence current Io
• Unbalance ratio I1/I2
• Frequency
• Peak current value
• Phase-to-phase voltage in true
RMS value
• Active and reactive power PW
and PVAR
• Active and reactive energies Wh
and VARh
• Power factor
To provide the user with more
accurate information on the motor’s
status and availability, the P225
relay keeps track of:
• Thermal status of the motor
• Load value as a % of full load
current
• Time to thermal trip
• Temperature of each RTD
• Hottest RTD
• Authorised start number
• Time before another start-up
authorisation
• Last start current magnitude
• Last start time value
• Number of starts and
emergency starts
• Total motor running hours
Analogue outputs
Two optional analogue outputs are
available. Some information and
measurements such as power,
energy and temperature values, etc.,
can be fed through a current loop
to a PLC.

Trip cause statistics
The MiCOM P225 relay provides the
user with trip statistics for every
protection function. The user can thus
keep track of the number of trips,
which have taken place as well as
their origin.
CB monitoring
Preventive CB maintenance is
provided by monitoring summated
contact breaking duty, the number of
switching operations and the
opening time. If a pre-set threshold is
exceeded, the P225 relay will
generate an alarm signal.
Event records
The last 75 status changes are
recorded in a non-volatile memory.
This covers all status changes to logic
inputs and outputs, modifications to
one or more parameters, alarm
signals or the operation of one of the
output contacts. Events are logged
every 1 ms.
Fault records
The P225 relay records the last 5
faults. For every fault, the relay
records and indicates:
• A fault number
• The date and time
• The active setting group
• The faulty phase or phases
• The function that gave the trip
• The magnitude of the value that
gave rise to the trip command
• The values of the phases and
earth currents and voltage.
Oscillography
5 disturbance records, of 2.5
seconds each, can be stored, with a
resolution of 32 samples per cycle.
Oscillography data can be
uploaded via the communication
network (RS485) or locally (RS232).
Disturbance Record Analysis

MiCOM S1 software

Shape of start-up current
and voltage
The MiCOM P225 relay records the
envelope of both start-up current and
voltage signals with a resolution of
one sample for every 5 periods.
This recording can be uploaded to a
PC via the communication network or
via the RS232 port on the front plate.
It is very helpful to be able to
visualise these curves during
commissioning and this function of
the MiCOM P225 avoids the need
for a plotter.
Back-up battery
In case of loss of auxiliary power, the
memory safeguard of all data
concerning event records, fault
records, oscillography and start-up
current and voltage waveform is
carried out by a 3.6 V battery.
