Earth Leakage Monitor Earth Leakage Monitor is one important device used in DC power systems like battery chargers AC-DC converter systems, DC-DC converter systems and DCDBs. Where an independent DC power source is used, the connections between transducers, control units and DC power source are very important. Monitoring and signalling of earth faults is essential in these situations, HBL ELM enables quick detection of earth faults so prompt corrective action can be taken. ———— Earth leakage current monitoring and protection ‘of DC power supply systems and wiring with local and remote alarm / annunciation Every outgoing feeder can be monitored individually Reliable and rugged as any short circuit at load end will not affect the system configuration Low power consumption ‘Compact | Princip! fo) ole) ola) | HBL make ELM (Earth Leakage Monitor) works on the residual or differential magnetising current induced in a current transformer. The two current carrying conductors (positive and negative) are passed through a ring type current transformer. Under normal conditions there is no residual current in the CT as the current flow in the two conductors is in opposite direction. In the event of earth-fault the current flowing through the conductors will be different and this difference gives rise to a residual / magnetizing Current in the CT. The CT forms a part of magnetic oscillator which would oscillate symmetrically when there is no magnetizing current in core. ‘The magnetizing current which is proportional to the fault leakage current is sensed and used to drive an LED and a relay through a comparator for local and remote (potential free contacts) annunciation. ‘The ELM is provided with a test button which can be used to check the correct functioning of the device during operation.
