Start Leave an initial condition or reset condition (Pickup)
Trip Operation (with operate time)
Operating time Duration of time interval between the instant when the character-
istic quantity in reset condition is changed, under specified condi-
tions, and the instant when the relay operates
Dropout ratio The ratio of a reset value to an operate value in well-specified con-
ditions. The dropout ratio may be lower or greater than 1 according
as an over or under element is considered
Reset time Duration of the time interval between the instant when the charac-
teristic quantity in operate condition is changed, under specified
conditions, and the instant when the relay operates.
The stated reset time is related to a step variation of characteristic
quantity in operate condition to the reset condition.
Overshoot time The critical impulse time for a relay which is in its reset condition,
is the longest duration a specified change in the input energizing
quantity(ies) (characteristic quantity), which will cause the relay
to change to operate condition, can be applied without the relay
switches. The overshoot time is the difference from the operate time
and the critical impulse time.
The declared values for the overshoot time are applicable with the
lower setting value of the operation time.

Preface
The relay type NV10B can be typically used in HV, MV and LV distribution systems, on transformers
or for electrical machines.
It can be used for system decoupling, load shedding and loss of main (islanding) protection.
In addition to the main protection element, the breaker failure (BF) , Trip Circuit Supervision (TCS) and
programmable logic (PLC) are also provided are also provided.
Following input circuits are available:
• Three voltages (line-to-line or line-to-ground) with nominal voltages programmable in the range
50...130 V (UR=100V) or 200...520 V (UR = 400V) and one residual voltage input with nominal voltage
programmable in the range 50...130 V (UER=100V).
• Two binary inputs.
Setting, programming and reading operations must be effected by means of Personal Computer with
ThyVisor software or by means of remote communication interface (RS485 bus, Ethernet network
and USB); all operations must be performed through MMI if enabled.
According to the hardware configurations, the NV10B protection relay can be shipped in various
case styles depending on the required mounting options:
• Flush.
• Projecting mounting.
• Rack.
• With separate operator panel.
Other options are:
• Auxiliary power supply operating range.
• Communication protocols.
Main features
• Metallic case.
• Backlight LCD 4x16 Display.
• Eight LEDs that may be joined with matrix criteria to many and various functions.
• RESET key to clear LED indications and latched output relays.
• Two free settable binary inputs.
• Independently settable for start, trip, self-test and control six output relay (K1...K6) Each output
relay may be set with normally energized or normally de-energized operating mode and manual or
automatic reset (latched/no-latched).
• Rear Ethernet communication port, with MODBUS TCP/IP® protocol, with RJ45 (copper wires) or
FX (optical fiber) connection.
• Rear RS485 port, with ModBus protocol.
• USB front serial port (local communication for ThyVisor).
• Real time clock with super capacitor.

Protective elements

GENERAL 11
NV10B - Manual - 04 - 2022
The most significant constructive features are:
• Galvanically insulated input and output circuits (communication and binary circuits included).
• Optimum filtering of input signals through combined use of analog and digital filters.
• Traditional electromechanical-type final output contacts with continuous monitoring of control coil
continuity.
• Auxiliary supply comprising a switching-type voltage stabilizing circuit having a very wide working
range and a very small power dissipation
• Nominal frequency: 50 or 60 Hz.
The most significant operating features are:
• Programming of operating modes and parameters by means of the front keys and alphanumeric
display, with a programming procedure based on carrying out guided selections and on explicit and
immediate signalling of the operations being performed, so that such procedure can be carried out
without coding tables or mnemonic informations.
• The feature modification operations do not interrupt the normal functions of the relay.
• Impossibility of programming unacceptable parameter values, thanks to the automatic limitation of
top and bottom scale values for the relative setting ranges.
• Currents are sampled 24 times per period and measured in the effective value (RMS) of the funda-
mental component using the DFT (Discrete Fourier Transform) algorithm and digital filters.
• The fault recorder (SFR) runs continuously capturing in circular mode the last twenty events upon
trigger of binary input/output and/or element pickup (start-trip).
• The event recorder (SER) runs continuously capturing in circular mode the last three hundred
events upon trigger of binary input/output.
• Digital fault recorder (DFR) in COMTRADE format (oscillography).
