The Breaker Monitor feature calculates an estimate of the per-phase wear on the breaker contacts by measuring and
integrating the current through the breaker contacts as an arc.
The per-phase values are added to an accumulated total for each phase, and then compared to a user-programmed
threshold value. When the threshold is exceeded in any phase, the relay can set a programmable output contact.
The accumulated value for each phase can be displayed.
The Breaker Monitoring feature requires an initiating contact to begin accumulation, and the accumulation begins
after the set time delay.

M‑7679 Recloser Control – Specification
Introduction
The M-7679 is a digital, Smart Grid ready, advanced recloser control and protection system that is compatible
with most manufacturer’s switchgear and suitable for new installations or as a direct, easy-to-install,
replacement for older recloser controls. It offers a comprehensive protection package with over 30 individual
protection functions and up to eight setting groups for either Three-Phase Ganged or Independent Phase
Capable reclosers. The M-7679 features a high accuracy metering system with advanced recording and
reporting functions as well as continuous data sampling at 128 samples per cycle.
By configuring various combinations of the slow-, fast-, and time-delay curve elements, the M-7679 Recloser
Control can allow as many as five Phase-to-Phase or Phase-to-Ground trips and four total reclosing
operations. If required, individual phase or ground reclose intervals are user-settable with time-delays of up
to 600 seconds. The settings for the different functions can be accomplished by using the IPScom S-7600
Communications Software or the front panel pushbuttons. For convenience and security, the M-7679 Recloser
Control offers an SD card reader. Programming can be done in the office and settings can be loaded using
an SD card thus minimizing the time a user needs to spend in front of the control.
Overcurrent Protection
Up to five cumulative fast- and delay-curve operations provide phase and ground overcurrent protection.
With a recloser CT ratio of 1000:1, for example, the phase overcurrent protection can have primary currents
set as sensitive as 20 A for phase overcurrent and 5 A for ground overcurrent protection.
The M-7679 offers over 50 different time curves plus four user programmable curves to facilitate coordination
with other elements in the network. The phase or ground fast- and delay-curves can be set either with the
user-designed curves or with the curve selection choices listed in Table 1.
Use traditional Recloser Control curve modifiers to alter fast- and delay-curves (including US or IEC curves):
• Constant Time Adder – adds time to curve
• Vertical Multiplier (time dial) – shifts entire curve up or down in time
• Minimum Response Time – delays curve tripping for minimum time
• High Current Lockout – high set lockout maximum
• High Current Trip – closes on bolted fault
Custom Overcurrent Protection
IPSlogic includes algorithms that allow user programmable customization of the overcurrent protection.
The M-7679 Recloser Control supports the following curve selections:

M‑7679 Recloser Control – Specification
Reclosing Operation
When there is any breaker open operation due to a fault, the relay will close the breaker automatically without
user intervention.The Reclosing Operation is achieved using the 79 function in conjunction with overcurrent
functions (i.e. 50P, 50G/50GS, 50N, 46DT, 51P, 51G/51GS, 51N, 46IT, 67P, 67N, 67G/GS, 67Q).
The Reclosing Sequence is an extension of the single Reclosing Operation. In this instance, when a breaker
opens and closes automatically, it will continue until a specified count is reached. Any overcurrent fault will
cause a trip after the trip time expires, at which time the 79 function will start the Reclose Interval. Both the
trip time and Reclose Interval are user settable.
At the end of the Reclose Interval the control will automatically send a close command to the breaker. This
process will continue until the maximum number of trips is reached or until the fault clears, whichever occurs
first. Once the maximum number of trips is reached, the control will automatically be placed in Lockout
and prevent further operation until the unit is reset. The maximum number of trips is user settable. See the
Instruction Book Setpoints Chapter for a detailed explanation of the Reclosing function.
Power Quality Monitoring
Power Quality (PQ) events: sags, swells, voltage and current unbalances; real-time harmonic analysis of
current and voltage for each phase, THD, phase voltage loss and variations, and ITIC excursion detection.
Monitoring/Metering
Real-Time Metering – the following measured and calculated values are available in real-time:
• Instantaneous values of the current for three phases, ground or sensitive ground
• Line and phase voltages
• DC battery voltage
• Active, reactive, apparent single- and three-phase power, including directional*
• Active energy received and delivered
• Demand metering on per-phase basis
• Reactive energy in quadrants I and III
• Single-phase and three-phase power factor*
• Frequency and phase sequence
• Sequence current and voltage magnitudes
*When the VT Configuration is set to any Delta Connection, only three phase power metering is
displayed in the Primary and Secondary Metering screens. Individual phase power metering is
grayed out, and the value displayed is "0".
