VTXSupervision Relay
AREVA T&D
Customer Benefits
• High stability on external faults• Tuned to rated frequency• 25ms operating time at 5 times current setting
VTX relay is used for the continuous supervision of CT secondary wiring and connections of busbar protection schemes. A built in delay of 3 seconds is provided to avoid unwanted alarm during external/internal faults.The relay after operation will short the CT bus wires.
Features • Consistentaccuracy. • Reliability. • Lowburden. • Reducedmaintenance. • Immunitytotransientsandsurges, withstands5KVimpulsevoltagetest.
