2 presentation contents page presentation protection functional and connection schemes other connection schemes connection characteristics 9 installation commissioning ordering information Sepam 0 is a group of modules that may be used: individually to perform a function, in combination with Sepam 00 or Sepam 000. Each module has been designed to perform a complete function. It includes all the elements required, such as: sensor interface, tripping output relays, annunciation, settings, connections. application Sepam 0 LA is used as the main protection system in substations which do not have an auxiliary power supply source. Combined with a Sepam 00 or Sepam 000, it provides back-up protection for the substation incomers. This protection goes into effect when the main protection chain fails due to: power supply fault, wiring fault, trip unit fault, shutdown of Sepam 00 or Sepam 000. Sepam 0 LA. advantages protection against low-value phase and earth faults, self-powering: Sepam 0 LA is powered by the current sensors, may be put in disabled status (inactive output) via an external inhibition contact, tripping by a low power-consuming «MITOP» trip unit (). high level of immunity to electromagnetic disturbances. () MITOP: Merlin Gerin circuit breakers may be equipped with this type of trip unit upon request.

3 description The front face of Sepam 0 LA contains the instruments needed for the phase and earth protection settings. Each set of microswitches, marked K, K, K and K and associated potentiometer P, P, P, P should be positioned according to the desired setting. K CTA CTA, 9,,, CT A CT A K 0 microswitch set to 0.

4 protection Sepam 0 LA provides sorts of protection: phase overcurrent (ANSI 0/): protection of equipment against phase-tophase faults (- or -phase), earth fault (ANSI 0N/N): protection of equipment against earth faults in directly earthed or impedance earthed networks. This sort of protection is appropriate for current transformers: A secondary (CT A), A secondary (CT A). phase protection setting range set point time delay. to In on A CT 0 to 0 ms 0. to In on A CT 0 to 0 ms accuracy ± % ± % Setting includes: making a number of turns around the interposing ring CT primary, positioning microswitches K (), fine tuning using the potentiometer: min to max.

Earth fault current settings (multiple of In) () If all the microswitches are set to 0, the protection will be inhibited. Only one microswitch in the group should be set to. The potentiometer associated to the microswitch allows a tunning of the setting value: minimum setting (x): turned fully to left, maximum setting (x.): turned fully to right. position of K on front face () position of P potentiometer min max min max min max min max CT A CT A

Ω for phase + earth protection). In practice, a. VA, P, A secondary type transformer is appropriate. The current transformer windings should be coiled round a separate magnetic coil and must not supply power to any circuits other than the Sepam 0 LA's circuit. interposing ring CT choice protection CT A CT A phase ACE 9 ACE 9 phase + earth ACE 9 ACE 9 () If all the microswitches are set to 0, the protection will be inhibited. Only one microswitch in the group should be set to. The potentiometer associated to the microswitch allows a tunning of the setting value: minimum setting (+0ms): turned fully to left, maximum setting (+0ms): turned fully to right.
