1.0 UL LISTED GROUND FAULT SENSING
AND RELAYING EQUIPMENT
Type GFR ground fault relays, current sensors, test panels
and accessory devices are UL listed by Underwriters' Lab-
oratories, Inc. in accordance with their standard for
Ground Fault Sensing and Relaying Equipment, UL 1053,
under File E48381.
2.0 GENERAL PURPOSE
A type
GFR
ground fault protection system, when prop-
erly installed
on
a grounded electrical system, will sense
phase to ground fault currents. When the level
of
fault
current
is
in excess
of
the pre-selected current pick-up
and time delay settings, the GFR relay will initiate a trip
action
of
a disconnect device, which will open the faulted
circuit and clear the fault.
The GFR devices are UL
Class
I devices designed to
protect electrical equipment against extensive damage
from arcing ground faults.
CAUTION: GROUND FAULT PROTECTION SYSTEMS
DESIGNED TO PROTECT EQUIPMENT CANNOT
SIMULTANEOUSLY PROVIDE PROTECTION
FOR
PERSONNEL AGAINST ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARDS,
SINCE THIS TYPE PROTECTION REQUIRES A SENSI-
TIVITY IN THE
LOW
MILLI-AMPERE RANGE.

DESCRIPTION
A basic type
GFR
ground fault protection system consists
of
a ground fault relay (GFR)
as
shown in Fig. 1, a ground
fault current sensor (GFS)
as
illustrated in Fig. 2 and a
disconnect device equipped with a shunt trip device. This
disconnect device can be a molded case circuit breaker,
a power circuit breaker, a bolted pressure switch or
other
fusible disconnect device, suitable for application
with
UL Class I Ground Fault Sensing and Relaying equipment.
A typical molded case circuit breaker with a shunt trip
device installed
is
illustrated in Fig. 3.

APPLICATION CONSIDERATIONS
4.1 General
Type
GFR
ground fault protective devices are designed
to
be used primarily
on
solidly grounded electrical distribu-
tion systems rated
up
to
a
maximum
of
600
volts,
50/60
Hz, to provide for rapid clearing
of
arcing ground faults.
When properly applied, these devices will satisfy
the
requirements for ground fault
protection
of
service en-
trance
equipment
as outlined in Sections 230-95 and
517-14
of
the
National Electrical code. When these de-
vices are
added
to
downstream feeder and
branch
circuits
as
well as
the
main service disconnecting devices as sug-
gested in the fine
print
note
of
230-95
and
to
the down-
stream feeders as required in 517-14, additional protec-
tion will be provided and selective coordination
of
tripping
operations
on
arcing ground faults can be achieved.
With selectively coordinated ground fault
protection
equipment
applied
on
main service disconnects and
downstream devices, a greater degree
of
continuity
of
service
is
insured.
4.2
Methods
of
Achieving System Selectivity
There are two basic
methods
of
achieving selective coordi-
nation
between
different levels
of
ground fault protective
devices in a distribution system.
4.2. I TIME-CURRENT BAND SETTINGS
The first
method
employs adjustable time delay and cur-
rent pick-up settings
to
achieve selectivity between up-
stream and downstream devices. When properly coordi-
nated,
downstream
detection
devices will use a time-
current
band
setting
that
will initiate a downstream trip-
ping
operation
and clear the faulted circuit before any
upstream interrupting device tripping action can be ini-
tiated.
This
type
of
coordination necessarily requires
the
longest time delay settings
to
be placed
on
the upstream
devices. This
type
of
coordination
is
fine
if
the
faults are
always downstream.
4.2.2 ZONE SELECTIVE INTERLOCK/NG
In
a system employing zone selective interlocking type
devices, selective
coordination
is
still achieved for down-
stream faults
by
the use
of
time-current
band
settings.
With appropriate settings, downstream interrupting de-
vices will clear
the
faulted circuit before any upstream
device can operate. However,
with
zone selective inter-
locking, additional intelligence
is
automatically pro-
grammed
into
the
time-current
coordination
scheme
to
allow for variations
in
the
pre-established tripping
se-
quence
to
allow for alternate locations
of
the
arcing
ground
fault. A zone selective interlock coordinated sys-
tem
provides for fast tripping
of
the
nearest interrupting
device upstream
of
the
arcing ground fault regardless
of
the
pre-set time delay settings. With this
type
of
protec-
tion,
the resulting systems damage level
is
the
lowest
possible because
the
interrupting devices are allowed
to
clear
the
fault as quickly as
they
can respond.
4.2.2.I Zone Selective Interlock
Wiring
Zone
interlock wiring is only applicable
to
type
GFR
re-
lays equipped
with
zone selective interlocking as
shown
in
Table 1. These relays are equipped
with
four additional
terminals which have
the
following function:
Terminal 8 -

used on l 25V
D-C
GFR's)
9 -
Output

10 -
Input
signal, time restraint
11
-

To
make
the
relays function in a zone interlocking
mode,
all relays
must
be
of
the
interlocking
type
and
ad-
ditional wiring connections are required. Typical connec-
tions for a main
with
multiple feeders and multiple
branch
circuits
is
illustrated in Fig. 7.
As shown
by
Note l in Fig.
7,
twisted pair wiring must
be used for interlock wiring
to
reduce
the
influence
of
stray
magnetic fields in switchboards with high ampacity
bus systems. Interlock wiring
must
be
routed
away from
bus
bars and separate from
concentrated
control
wire
groupings.

As
shown by Note 3 in Fig. 7, any number -up
to
50 -type GFR relays may be wired in parallel
to
trans-
mit a single signal
to
upstream device. No supplementary
relaying
is
required for this function.
4.2.2.2 Zone Interlocking Operation Mode
Regardless
of
the time delay setting, any interlocking type
GFR
relay will respond near instantaneously unless a
re-
straint signal -which
is
indicative
of
a ground fault further
downstream in the next protective zone -acts to change
the mode
of
operation
to
the pre-set time delay. On
downstream circuits, it
is
frequently desired
that
a short
time delay be observed before a tripping action
is
initiated.
This can be accomplished by adding a jumper between
terminals 9 and 10
on
the downstream relay
as
indicated
by Note 2 on Fig. 7. This jumper should
not
be used
on
any upstream relay
as
it will defeat the zone interlock-
ing function.
4.3 Relay Settings
4.3.1 GENERAL
The exact individual relay time/current settings will vary
between system installations depending upon the type
of
protection and level
of
selectivity desired. The Specifying
Engineer can best make these decisions for any specific
installation. For general applications, settings
as
described
in the following conditions may be considered.
4.3.1.1 Single Zone Level
of
Protection
Minimum Pick-up -
20%
of
disconnect rating. Increase
to
maximum pick-up setting (1200 Amp) where maxi-
mum service continuity
is
desired.
Minimum Time Delay© -10 cycles suggested. Any faster
time will invite nuisance trips. Increase time when more
than minimum damage level can be tolerated.
4.3.1.2 Multiple Zones
of
Protection Without Zone
Interlocking
Minimum Pick-up -The pick-up setting
of
the down-
stream device should still
be
no
less
than
20%
of
the
disconnect rating. Successive upstream settings should
be at least one step greater than the nearest downstream
device pick-up setting.
Minimum Time Delay© -The shortest time possible
should be used
on
the branch circuit downstream. In-
crease the time delay
on
upstream devices in increments
of
one step or more for molded case breakers, and two
steps or more for other slower operating type devices.

interlock

comparable
with the
SPB
and Digitrip interlocks.
4.3.1.3 Multiple Zones
of
Protection
With
Zone
Selective Interlocking
Establish time/current coordination
as
in 4.3.1.2 for
multiple zones without zone interlocking. This
is
done
on the basis
that
most faults occur downstream and that
the most downstream device should be set to clear the
fault first leaving upstream devices for back-up fault
protection.
Add zone interlocking to provide fast tripping
of
up-
stream devices regardless
of
pre-set time delay for faults in
the upstream zones.
Where
desired, nearly instantaneous operation
of
down-
stream devices can be defeated were time delayed op-
erations are adequate. See 4.2.2.2.
5.0 RELAY TYPE SELECTION (See Fig. 1)
5
.1
Available Relay Types
The GFR ground fault relays are available in two basic
types, ie, with and without zone selective interlocking.
Each type relay must be reset following a trip operation.
Each
of
the basic type relays
is
available with either an
electrically held or mechanically latched
output
relay. The
electrically held type must be electrically reset remotely -
usually
via
a normally closed, momentary pushbutton in
the control power circuit. In this type, a red lamp
is
pro-
vided for visual ground fault trip indication. The mechani-
cally latched type must be manually reset by depressing
the pushbutton on the face
of
the GFR relay. This manual
reset
bottom
also serves
as
a mechanical pop-up trip indi-
cator. A complete list
of
available styles
is
provided
in
Table
1.
5.2 Setting Adjustments
Each type relay
is
provided with two switches that are
adjustable over the range selected. The top adjusting
knob,
as
shown in Fig. 1, adjusts the pick-up level
of
the
ground fault current. The bottom adjusting knob adjusts
the time delay range. The calibration marks provided for
both
adjustments
are
shown in Table 2. After the desired
values have been pre-set, the adjusting knobs can be
locked in position by the pointer lock screw shown in
Fig.
1.
5.3 Ground Fault Signal Memory
Arcing ground fault currents are, by definition, erratic
in
nature being caused by the intermittent striking and

striking
of
an arcing ground fault. To avoid the instanta-
neous resetting
of
the solid state timing circuitry every
time the fault current drops
to
zero, Type GFR ground
fault relays are equipped with a memory response, which
integrates these intermittent faults with time using a seven
second time constant.

5.4 Time-Current Curves
The time/current performance curve
of
a Type GFR
re-
lay has a flat response, ie., the operating time
of
any given
fault current above its pick-up setting
is
essentially con-
stant. There
is
some small variation in the lower ranges
as
indicated in Fig. 8, but very little. The pick-up and time
delay tolerances,
are±
10%.

.5
Relay Selection, General
The specific type and pick-up range
of
relay selected
is
a factor
of
its intended application, which the specifying
engineer can best determine. In general, the ratings may
be selected
on
the following general basis:
5.5. I PICK-UP
RANGE
1-12 Amp -Specific circuit application where low level
sensitivity
is
required.
5-60 Amp -Individual branch and/or motor circuits
where multi-level protection
is
provided.
100-1200 Amp -General purpose and service applications.
5.5.2 TYPE OF
SELECTIVITY
Relays without zone interlocking are best suited for single
level applications where it
is
desired
to
only satisfy the
minimum requirements
of
the National Electrical Code.
Zone selective interlocking type relays should be selected
for multi-level system applications where only the mini-
mum amount
of
system damage can be tolerated follow-
ing an arcing ground fault.
5.5.3
TYPEOFOPERATION
Electrically held relays will satisfy most applications
where reliable control power
is
available following a fault
interruption. Where control power
is
derived from the
load side
of
the disconnect device and a visual trip indica-
tion
is
desired, the mechanically held relay should be
selected. Also, in applications where the control power
is
less than reliable and where an automatic reset could
af-
fect interlocking circuitry, the mechanically held relay
should be selected.

to illus-
trate the internal functional circuits
of
the type GFR
Relay. Complete external connections are a function
of
the associated devices used with the relay along with the
complexity
of
the system in which the components are
applied. The terminals on the
GFR
relay are suitable for
#18 through
#14

copper conductors. A maximum
of
two per terminal are permitted.

5.8.3 ZONE DIFFERENTIAL GFR OPERATION
PRINCIPLES -SEE
FIG.

5.8.3.1 In general,
G~~
will operate only for ground
faults within Zone 1 and

for Zone 2. This includes
ground faults for feeders located in these respective zones.

with a ground fault in Zone

5.8.3.4 For properly co-ordinated main, tie and feeder
interrupting devices, the feeder relays will always react
to clear a downstream ground fault prior
to
operation
of
either the main or tie devices.
5.8.3.5 Zone interlock wiring between upstream and
downstream devices can be included
as
shown. For this
scheme, no cross interlocking with
"T"
auxiliary contacts
is
required.
5.8.3.6 This scheme may be expanded to additional alter-
nate sources
as
long
as
interrupting devices are available
to
isolate any potential ground fault on each side
of
the
fault.

GROUND FAULT CURRENT SENSORS
(See Table 6, Page 24)

.1
General Description
As
indicated in Table 6 (Page 24), Ground Fault Current
Sensors (GFS) are available in a variety
of
physical sizes
and current ratings to match the application requirements
of
the distribution system. Sensors should be selected to
match the ampere rating
of
the specified
GFR
Relay. The
physical size should be selected to properly encompass the
required conductor configuration with space allowed for
minimum clearances
as
shown
in
the applicable outline
mounting figure. Outline references
are
given
in
Table 6.
Sensors are available with solid cores having round con-
ductor openings and in split core designs with various size
rectangular openings. On the split core designs, one core
leg
is
removable
to
permit ease
of
installation around
existing conductor assemblies.
Ground Fault Current Sensors are special rated current
transformers and must be applied only with type GFR
Relays shown in Table
1.
Sensors cannot be used with any
other equipment.
Sensors are insulated with cast apoxy and can be
mounted directly to enclosure surfaces. Ideally, they
should be installed
so
that all conductors passing through
the sensor opening are physically centered in the window
opening. Minimum clearances are specified in the applica-
ble outline,
but
greater clearances will help reduce any
possible error signals. Rectangular configurations are pro-
vided with compensating windings to reduce potential
error signals.
All
sensors are provided with integral test winding for
use under simulated ground fault test conditions. With
an input
of
1.2 Amps into terminals 2-3, a rated
output
of
240 M.A. should be produced in terminals
1-3
with a
tolerance
of
±15%. For information purposes, the turns
ra-
tio and saturation levels
of
all sensors
is
provided
in
Table 6.

for periodic testing
of
the type
GFR
Relay and associated
disconnect using a simulated ground fault test current.
Two such test schemes are illustrated in Figs.
15
and 16.
The first figure illustrates the connections required for
an
electrically reset ground fault relay. The latter figure
is
for
a mechanically reset relay.
In
each
of
the alternate test diagrams, the suggested
test resistor rating
is
50 ohms, 70 watts. Using a 120 Volt
control power source, this will produce a test current
of
approximately 200%
of
the maximum pick-up setting
of
the
GFR
relay. Simulated field test methods should
not
be used
as
a calibration check
of
the relay. Functional
testing only should suffice.

8.0 GROUND FAULT WARNING INDICATOR RELAY
8.1
General Purpose
This relay, as illustrated in Fig.
5,
can be used
to
initiate
a remote audio or visual warning
of
a low level ground
fault condition. The non-adjustable relay
is
set
to
pick-up
at 30-50%
of
the pick-up setting
of
the associated type
GFR
relay. Thus, a warning
of
a slow progressing, high
resistance type
of
arcing ground fault can be triggered
prior to the circuit clearing actions initiated
by
the type
GFR
relay. The relay requires a 120 volt, 60 Hz., control
power source and must be used with a type
GFR
relay
equipped with zone selective interlocking.
8.2 Available Styles
The Ground Fault Warning Indicator Relay
is
a
UL
recognized component and available in four different
styles
as
indicated in Table
3.
One type
is
self-reset fol-
lowing a diminished pick-up signal. The other type
re-
quires an electrical reset
of
control power normally
accomplished by a pushbutton in the control power
circuit. The relay may be used individually for panel
mounting or, where extra signal contacts are required,
it may be used in conjunction with a type
BF
relay.
A typical connection diagram for a panel mounted relay
is
shown in Fig. 17.
