The voltage protection relay VPR-A has been designed to measure the line or phase RMS voltage, frequency and unbalance under normal conditions or under disturbances. This information is internally processed by the microprocessor, to take the voltage protection actions defined under ANSI or IEC standards. The different functions provided by the VPR-A may be classified into the groups mentioned below.
Applications
Protection of generators, motors and transformer against adverse system voltage conditions
Ground fault detection 59N
Supervision of automatic transfer switching schemes
Protection and Functionality
(27t/27i) Timed and instantaneous undervoltage
(27r) Residual undervoltage
(46) Voltage unbalance
(47) Phase reversal

(59N) Homopolar voltage
(81) Underfrequency and Overfrequency
Five programmable relay output contacts
Control power drop or internal fault relay
