The
relay
undervoltage
element
consists
of
a
telephone-type
relay
in
series
with
a
zener
regulator
connected
across
a
full
wave
rectifier.
A
capacitor
is
connected
across
the
rectifier
AC
supply
to
protect
the
rectifier
from
severe
voltage
surges.
A
rheostat
is
connected
in
series
with
the
rectifier
to
provide
pickup
adjustment. Targets
mounted
in
the
drawout
case
are
available
as
indicated
in
Table
A.
The
outline
and
drilling
dimensions
of
the
relay
are
depicted
in
Figures
10
and
11.
APPLICATION
The
NGV
relay
is
intended
for
general
application
wherever
instantaneous
detection
of
undervoltage
is
required.
Some
specific
applications
are
listed
below:
1.
Instantaneous
undervoltage
detection for
preferred—emergency
throwover
control
equipment.
2.
Ground
fault
detection
for
faulted—phase
selection
on
ungrounded
systems.
3.
Phase
fault
detection
for
disabling
telephone
or
telemetering
services
at
stations
with

CHARACTERISTICS
The

unit
is
a
hinged
armature
unit
which
drops
out
when
the
magnetic
pull
created
by
the
ampere—turns
in
the
operating
coil
is
less
than
the
force
of
the
opening
spring.
The
drop-out
voltage
is
changed
by
adjusting
the
rheostat
and
the
voltage
range
is
given
in
Table

The
pickup
voltage
is
110
percent
or
less
of
the dropout
voltage.
On
any
drop
out
operation,
the
voltage
range
from
the
beginning
of the
action
to
its
completion
is
about
one
percent
of
rated
voltage.
The
relay
pickup time
is
approximately
two
cycles
and
the
dropout
characteristic
(voltage
against
time)
is
shown
in
Figure

The

The

has
a
DC
resistance
of
7.5
ohms
for
the
0.2
ampere
unit
and
0.12
ohms
for
the
2
ampere
unit.
Internal
connections
of
the
various
relays
are
shown
in
Figures
3
through
8
and
12.
CONSTRUCTION
The
relay
components
are
mounted
in
a
cradle
assembly
which
is
latched
into
a
drawout case
when
the
relay
is
in
operation,
but
that
can
be
easily
removed
when
desired.
To
remove
the
relay
from
its
case,
first
disconnect
it
by
removing
the
connection
plug
that
completes
the
electrical
connections
between
the
case
block
and
the
cradle
block.
This
connection
block
can
be
replaced
by
a
test
plug to
test
the
relay
in
its
case.
The
cover,
which
is
attached
to
the
front
of
the
relay
case,
contains
the
target
reset
mechanism
and
an
interlock
arm
which
prevents
the
cover
from
being
replaced
until
the connection
plugs
have been
inserted.
The
relay
case
is
suitable
for
either
semi-flush
or
surface
mounting
on
all
panels
up
to
two
inches
thick;
appropriate
hardware
is
available.
However,
to
insure
that
proper
hardware
will
be
included,
panel
thickness
must
be
indicated
on
the
relay
order.
For
outline
and
drilling
dimensions,
see
Figures
10
and
11.
Every
circuit
in
the
drawout
case
has
an
auxiliary
brush,
as
shown
in
Figure
1,
to
provide
adequate
overlap
when
the
connecting
plug
is
withdrawn
or
inserted.
Some
circuits
are
equipped
with
shorting
bars
(see
Figures
3-8)
and
on
these
circuits,
it
is
especially
important
that
the
auxiliary
brush
makes
contact
with
adequate
pressure
as
indicated
in
Figure
1
to prevent
the
opening
of
interlock
circuits.

RECEIVING,
HANDLING
AND
STORAGE
These
relays,
when
not
included
as
part
of
a
control
panel,
will
be
shipped in
cartons
designed
to
protect
them
against
damage.
Immediately
upon
receipt
of
a
relay,
examine
it
for
any
damage
sustained
in
transit.
If
damage
resulting
from
rough
handling
is
evident,
file
a
damage
claim
at
once
with
thc
transportation
company
and
promptly
notify
the
nearest
General
Electric
Apparatus
Sales
Office.
Use
reasonable
care
when
unpacking
the
relays.
If
the
relays
are
not
to
be
installed
immediately,
store
them
in
their
shipping
cartons
in
a
place
that
is
free
from
moisture, dust
and
metallic
chips.
Foreign
matter
that
has
collected
on
the
outside
of
the
case
could
get
inside
when
the
cover
is
removed
and
cause
problems
in
the
operation
of
the
relay.
Also
check
the
nameplate
stamping
to
insure
that
the
model
number
and
the
rating
of
the
relay
received
agree
with
the
requisition.
Check
the
operation
manually,
and
check
that
the
contact
gap
and
wipe
agree
with
values
given
in
the
section
on
ADJUSTMENTS
AND
INSPECTION.
ADJUSTMENT
AND
INSPECT
ION
MECHANICAL
CHECK
Check
the
relay
for
mechanical
operation
before
installation
to
see
that
it
operates
smoothly
and
that
the
contacts
are
correctly
adjusted.
With
the
relay
de-energized,
each
normally
open
contact
should
have
a
gap
of
0.015
inch
or
more.
Observe
the
wipe
on
each
normally
closed
contacL
by
deflecting
the
stationary
contact
member
towards
the
frame.
Wipe
should
be
approximately
0.005
inch.
The
wipe
on
each
normally
open
contact
should
be
approximately
0.005
inch.
Check
by
inserting
a
0.005
inch
shim
between
the
residual
screw
and
the
pole
piece
and
operating
the
armature
by
hand.
The
normally
open
contacts
should
make
before
the
residual
screw
strikes
the
shim.
ELECTRICAL TEST
The
relay
should
be
tested
before
installation
and
periodically
thereafter
by
connecting
a
variable
source
of
voltage
at
rated
frequency
to the
coil
studs
and
checking
the
pickup
and
dropout
voltages.
Use
the
variable
rheostat
to the
relay,
and
if
necessary,
the
residual
screw
to
adjust
to
the
values
required.
Adjustment
of
the
ratio
of
pickup
to
dropout
is
made,
if
necessary,
with
the
residual
screw;
in
most
applications
no
adjustment
of
this
ratio
will
be
required.
A
variable
source
of
DC
power
should
be
connected
to the
target
circuits,
if
furnished,
and
the
pickup
amperes
checked.

GEI—90805
SERVICING
In
view
of
the
vital
role
of
protective relays
in
the
operation
of
a
power
system
It
is
Important
to
follow
a
periodic
test
program.
The
Interval
between
periodic
checks
will
probably
vary
depending
upon
environment,
the
type
of
relay
and
the
user’s
experience
with
periodic
testing.
Until
the
user
has
accumulated
enough
experience
to
select
the
test
interval
best
suited
to
individual
requirements,
the
points
listed
under
ADJUSTMENT
AND
INSPECTION
should
be
checked
once
a
year.
A
flexible
burnishing tool
should
be
used
to
clean
fine
silver
contacts.
This
tool
Is
an
etched-roughened
strip
of
flexible
metal,
resembling
In
effect
a
superfine
file,
that
will
remove
corroded
material
quickly
and
thoroughly
without
scratching
the
surface.
The
flexibility
of
the
tool
insures
the
cleaning
of
the
actual
points
of
contact.
Knives,
files,
abrasive
paper or
cloth
should never
be
used
to
clean
fine
silver
contacts.
The
burnishing tool
described
above
can
be
obtained
from
the
factory.
RENEWAL
PARTS
Sufficient quantities
of
renewal
parts
should
be
carried
In
stock
for
prompt
replacement
of
any
parts
that
become
worn,
broken,
or
damaged.
When
ordering
renewal
parts,
address
the
nearest
Sales
Office
of
the
General
Electric
Company,
specify
quantity
required,
name
of
the
part
wanted,
and
give
complete nameplate
data.
If
possible,
give
the
General
Electric
requisition
number
on
which
the
relay
was
furnished.
