1 Overview
1.1 Introduction
The F-PRO 116 is a microcontroller-based relay providing comprehensive protection for
Overcurrent, Earth Fault, Sensitive/Restricted Earth Fault, Auto-Reclosing, Circuit Breaker Failure,
Broken conductor, Thermal Overload and Negative Sequence Overcurrent. Inrush Restraint, Trip
Circuit Supervision, Metering and Breaker Monitoring functions suitable for distribution
applications are also provided.
Terminal software, such as HyperTerminal, enables the user to:
•Change & retrieve relay settings
•View event and fault information
F-PRO Offliner is the offline tool which enables the user to create, modify and review relay
settings.
The primary protection provided is overcurrent based. A library for these overcurrent functions
provides commonly used IEEE and IEC inverse curves. Since the curves are equation-driven, the
user can choose to enter equation parameters directly to create user defined overcurrent curve
shapes as needed.
To provide a complete package of protection and control, the F-PRO 116 provides other functions
such as:
•Breaker failure Protection (50BF)
•Broken Conductor (46BC)
•Thermal Overload (49)
•Multi-shot Auto Recloser (79)
•5 ProLogic statements
•2 Setting Groups

AC Current Inputs
F-PRO is provided with terminal blocks for up to 5 AC current
inputs (3 Phase Current, 1 Neutral and 1 SEF). 1A and 5A are
separate terminals, 1A / 5A CT Secondary is Site Selectable.
To refer the complete schematic circuits; see “AC Schematic
Drawing” in Appendix-I & “DC Schematic Drawing” in Appendix-J
External Inputs
The F-PRO relay has 4 external inputs with a factory selectable
voltage level. External DC voltages of either 24/30 volts, 48/50
volts, 110/125 volts or 220/250 volts nominal are available
depending on the ordering code.
Relay Inoperative Alarm
Output
If the relay becomes inoperative, then the Relay Inoperative Alarm
output contact closes. Output Contact 6 may be configured as
Relay Inoperative Alarm Contacts. During the relay inoperative
period, all tripping functions are blocked.
Output Relay Contacts
The F-PRO relay has 6 output relay contacts. Each contact is
programmable and has breaker tripping capability. All output
contacts are isolated from each other. All the contacts are
provided with settable dropout timers (0-1 sec) - applicable for
self reset.
If function reset time & the output contact reset time both are set
in the IED; then, the higher value will be taken for relay drop out.
Example: 51 function is chosen with reset DTL delay 0.5 sec and
the output contact dropout time is 0.8 sec, then 0.8 sec will be the
dropout time of the output contact.
1.4 Model Options/Ordering
•The relay is available in E4 size and flush mount type along with standard for details
see “Mechanical Drawings” in Appendix-H.
•The external inputs are 24/30, 48/50, 110/125 or 220/250 Vdc rated. The Auxiliary
supply is 20-60 Vdc or 80-300 Vdc rated.
•All of the above options must be specified at the time of ordering.

2 Installation and Safety Instructions
2.1 Introduction
This section deals with the installation of the F-PRO 116 when first delivered. The section covers
the physical mounting, AC and DC wiring and the Communication wiring.
The following symbols are used in this manual and on the unit. They should be understood before
working on the unit:
Caution: refer to equipment documentation
Caution: risk of electric shock
Protective Earth (or Ground) Terminal
Auto ranging power supply
Both direct and alternating current
2.2 Physical Mounting
The relay is 177mm high, 175mm deep and 103.5mm wide. A complete mechanical drawing is
shown, for details see “Mechanical Drawings” in Appendix H. To install the relay the following is
needed:
•E4 cutout (97 x 159 mm)
•M4 screws and nuts
The equipment ratings, operating instructions and installation instructions shall be checked
before commissioning or maintenance. It is the responsibility of the user to ensure that the
equipment is installed, operated and used for its intended function in the manner specified
in this manual. If this is not the case then any safety protection provided by the equipment
may be impaired.

2-2 F-PRO 116 User Manual D05125R01.20
Case Grounding
2.3 Power Supply
A wide range power supply is standard. The relay power supply is provided with nominal operating
ranges of:
•20 to 60 Vdc
•80 to 300 Vdc / 100 to 250 Vac, 50/60 Hz.
To protect against a possible short circuit in the supply use an inline fuse or circuit breaker with a
5A rating. Ensure that the chassis is grounded for proper operation and safety.
There are no power switches on the relay. When the power supply is connected, the relay starts
its initialization process and takes about 5 seconds to complete the startup and for the green relay
functional LED to turn on.
2.4 AC and DC Wiring
For details see “AC Schematic Drawings” in Appendix I and “DC Schematic Drawings” in Appendix J.
2.5 Communication wiring
The relay user interface and supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) services are accessed
by:
•COM1 - Front USB 2.0 interface (user interface and maintenance)
•Rear panel serial link (RS485 serial link for Modbus, IEC103 and DNP3)
The relay user interface is accessed through terminal software such as HyperTerminal.
WARNING!
Ground the relay to station ground using the Case-Grounding terminal at the
back of the relay, for details see Figure 1.3: F-PRO Rear View on page 1-4.
Ensure the power supply input and the AC and DC wires are de-energized before
working on the wiring. Failure to do so could result in electric shock. CT circuits
shall be short-circuited before working on the current input wires.
Shielded wire shall be used for all connections that run outside of the panel in which the
F-PRO is installed. The shield must be grounded only at one end at the point where the
cable enters the panel.

D05125R01.20 F-PRO 116 User Manual 2-3
EIA-485
The relay’s serial port (COM 2) is an EIA RS-485 Data Communications Equipment (DCE)
device. This allows them to be connected directly to other relays in parallel and
communicated to a PC serial port with a standard straight-through male-to-female serial
cable with RS-485 to RS232 convertor. RS 485 cable can work for maximum 1.2KM with
single IED. Shielded cable is recommended, for pin –out see “Communication Port Details”
USB
COM 1 on the front panel is a standard USB-B connector. This port is the Maintenance port
of the relay. This is a USB 2.0 Full Speed interface and can be connected to a PC with a
standard USB peripheral cable (A style to B style).
