1.0 CONNECTION TO UPPLY

1.1 Installation must only be carried out by suitably qualified personnel. All local safety regulations must of

course be followed including IEE wiring regulations 17th edition if installation is in the U . The power

supply to the relay is taken from the phase – phase 50 or 60hz voltage and connected via a fuse 6A max to

Um1 and Um2. The CXPLUS accepts any voltage across Um1-Um2 in the range 90-550V 50/60Hz. Voltage

Transformers for different supply voltages are a thing of the past. Check that the supply voltage is within the

limits of the relay rated voltage, and the CT has 1A or 5A output, at full load.

1.2 Current Transformer

The current supply to the relay is taken from a current transformer, which can be split core or ring type

Class 1., with 5VA rating. The current transformer (CT) must be kept short circuited until connections have

been securely applied to terminals -L. The CT is normally mounted on a different phase to L2-L3 for the

voltage supply. Other connections are possible – see phase offset menu 206. It is essential to ensure:

a) That the CT is measuring the total load of the feeder to be corrected – including the PFC capacitor

current

b) The ratio of the CT is such that full load current is about 75% of the CT ratio e.g. for a Max load of

500 amps, select a CT ratio of 800/5 – not 5000/5. This is because at the lower current ranges C T's

are less accurate.

c) Do not use a CT with too low a ratio for the measured load. e.g. If the load is 750

Amps, and you use a 500/5 CT ., the CT will then be saturated and will give inaccurate results.

When mounting the CT, ‘P’ should be pointing in the direction of the incoming supply and ‘L’ towards the

load. S1 on the CT should be connected to ‘ ’ on the relay and S2 to ‘L’ on the relay. The output from the CT

can be 1A or 5A. The Max ratio of the CT must be such that the smallest step of switched capacitance will

produce a current of not less than 15mA. Reactive – preferably 20mA.

Example:

The smallest step size is 25 kvar., at 415v 3ph 50 Hz. What is the highest CT ratio permissible?.

25 kvar at 415v = 34.7 amps. Capacitor will switch at 60% of nominal kvar = 20.8 amps.

Minimum current = 20mA reactive ., so Max CT ratio = 20.8/.02=1040/1 or 5200/5 for a 25 kvar capacitor

operating at 415v/3ph/50 hz. A 5000/5 would normally be selected as a max ratio

1.3 Connect the earth tag link on the instrument case to earth

1.4 Connect in accordance with the wiring diagram for contactors or thyristors

1.5 Remove any short circuit links from the CT and relay

1.6.2 (CXPLU ..T – Thyristor switching)

2.0 ENERGI ING THE RELAY

2.1 The CXPLU has a default lockout time of 75 seconds and will start counting down, after energising.

This to ensure that capacitors are not switched in immediately after power loss and an emergency

generator start up - for example. Also, this 75 second default time operates when any one step has been

switched. This is to ensure that it cannot be switched in again until that step has discharged. This enables

the short step switching time of 10 secs to be set – but you can adjust step switch time in the quick start

menu.

2.2 Measured Values in the Display

The three larger digits at the top show system 50 hz power factor.

e.g. 0.91i = lagging p.f. 0.91., 0.98c = leading p.f 0.98

If you have a known lagging power – inductive load – then ‘i’ should be displayed in the LCD. If you see ‘c’

and you are certain the load is lagging., switch off and swap over Um1 and Um2. This is better than

swapping over a load carrying CT – which may produce excessive voltages on open circuit. To access the

scroll down values press ►

The scrolled values▲ ▼ have the following meanings. These are the readings the end user can readily

access.

NB If you do not set the CT ratio, and leave it at the factory setting of 1 ., then the items marked ** will

not be shown. ou set the CT ratio in section C.T of the 100 Menu, below.

3.0 THE QUICK TART MENU 100 TO ET CT AND VT RATIO

The 100 Menu allows you to set the CT ratio- voltage measurement values, target power factor setting.,

and switching time per step. This is the menu the Commissioning Engineer can use on site. Other settings

in the expert menus can be made with the help of a qualified Engineer or Technician.

Values of kW/kVA/kvar will not be correct unless the correct setting is made for voltage

(Un) and current. (Ct)

In order to make these settings we have to go into the commissioning menu 100.

How to get into menu 100:

press ◄ repeatedly to get back to the value 0....i

Now press ▼ and you see 'INFO' in the top right corner

Press ▼ again and you see 'MANUAL'

Press ▼ again and you see 'SETUP'

Press ► and release .'100' shows in the display

Press ► again – you are now in the commissioning menu 100. The 100 menu allows you to make the

essential settings are marked in bold

Un – Voltage etting

The first value you see is the Un. This is the phase – phase voltage., not Phase-Neutral. So for the U for

example the setting for Un is 415v. This is the factory default setting for relays made in the U after serial

number 1123596

If you need to change this press ► and the first digit starts flashing – using ▲▼adjust as needed and key ► to

adjust the second figure and so on. Press ► to confirm and the digits stop flashing.

It is important to have the correct voltage setting Un because the alarm thresholds are defaulted to operate

when the voltage is +-10% from nominal Un setting.

▼

C.T etting

To set the CT ratio key ► and the first digit starts flashing.

Assume the CT ratio is 1000/5., which is 200/1. Always set the CT ratio as a multiplication factor to 1 so for

the CT ratio 1000/5 we set Ct to 200. The same sequence with ▼ and ► is used for all the other settings.

▼

Pt – Voltage Transformer ratio setting

This is only used when the relay is used on MV/HV systems. The default setting is 1., but if the relay is

working on an 11kv system with 110v voltage input ., the setting for Pt is 100

▼

Ai – Automatic Initialisation

This is defaulted to NO and we recommend it is left on NO

If set to 'YES' – when the relay is first commissioned it will switch each step one by one. It will correct any

mistaken wiring of the CT.., and store the kavar values per step in its menu. We do not recommend use of

this Ai feature unless you do not know which phase the CT is on.

If Ai is ‘NO’ then no automatic switching on initial energising will take place, and the steps will be switched

in for the first time when they are required. Each time they switch their kvar value is recorded in the micro-

processor memory.

▼

PFC – tep switching Control

This control allows you to decide how you want the steps to be switched. The possible selections are :

ON - Normal switching of steps on/off as the reactive demand changes. This is the normal AUTO control

OFF – Reactive control de-activated and all steps in circuit will be switched off

HOLD – The steps switched in will remain on. The reactive control is de-activated

The default setting is 'ON'- automatic switching of steps.

Page 6 of 11

▼

CPI – or Target Power factor setting

Set to the required target PF. Note if you press ▲ when the CPI is 1 you will go into a leading pf setting. You

can target up to 0,70 lead., which is an unlikely setting but when the PFC is on the LV side of a transformer

and the customer is paying for energy on the HV side it may be useful to target to about 0.99 lead so as to

compensate for transformer reactive current which is creating I²R losses in the windings on no load.

▼

t – witching time per step

Adjustable from 1 second – 999 seconds. For longer times there is also the possibility to have 'k' ( x 1000 )

and 'M' x 1 Million if needed. If the switch time is set to 1 second per step, for a rapidly changing load, of

course it cannot switch back in again after a delay of only 2 seconds, due to the charge held on the

capacitor. In this case the relay will wait until the programmed discharge time set in menu 401. Default

setting on menu 401 is 75 secs.

▼

OUt – etting of Output for each tep

This setting allows you to select each step setting either as:

Auto – normal automatic relay controlled step switching

AL – This step operates an alarm contact. When the temperature is above the target setting – this contact

can be used to start up the ventilation fan. If you select AL for one of the exit relays, the default switching

temperature is 30ºC, when this contact will close.

FOFF – This step is permanently off (Fixed off)

FON – this step is permanently on (Fixed on)

Default setting is AUTO

4.0 MANUAL WITCHING

4.1 Sometimes there is no load on the system when the relay is commissioned. In order to test everything is

working correctly, the best way is to switch steps in manually and watch the increase in the Cos Phi display

until a leading power factor is achieved, and then to return the relay to AUTO to make sure the relay

switches out to reach the target power factor.

Press ◄ repeatedly to get back to Cosphi in the display

▼- INFO

▼- MANUAL

Now enter manual mode , ►by holding down the ► key for 3 secs , Scroll up ▲ and the figure 1 is in the

display. This is step 1 – to switch step 1 on key ►., to switch off ► again. Now move through the steps using

▲ to get to the next step and ► to switch it on. Under low loads on the system this will create a leading

power factor.

To switch back to Automatic control, so as to check the relay is working correctly, press ◄ repeatedly until

MANUAL-INFO-SETUP disappear from the right hand side of the display, so the relay is now in its normal

AUTO switching function , and if the Cos phi is leading it should switch steps out to achieve the target

Cosphi

(as set in 3.8)

5.0 THE INFO MENU

To get into the INFO press escape ◄ a few times and then ▼., and you see INFO in the top right corner of

the display. Enter the INFO programme with ►.

Now you see the steps in the bottom section of the display.1-6 ., or 1-12., or 1-14 depending on the number

of steps on this relay.

The INFO programme is extremely useful since it tells you exactly how each step has been performing since

installation. You can move to interrogate each step by using the ▼▲ keys.

To examine the behaviour of any one step enter that step with and as you scroll down you see the►

following symbols:

C: This is the real time kvar output of this step –

but remember this is only correct if the CT has been set to the correct ratio

%: This shows the % loss in kvar per step since that step was first energised

(very useful to check capacitor quality and possible over stress due to harmonics)
