MicroLogic 5.0H and 6.0H Trip Units with Harmonic Metering
In addition to the P functions, the MicroLogic H trip units offer:
-
In-depth analysis of power quality including calculation of harmonics and the fundamentals.
-
Diagnostics aid and event analysis through waveform capture.
-
Customized alarm programming to analyze and track down a disturbance on the ac power system.
-
Systematic time stamping of all events and creation of logs.

Waveform Capture
MicroLogic H trip units can capture and store current and voltage waveforms using digital sampling techniques similar to those used in oscilloscopes. Using the information available in the captured waveform, it is possible to determine the level of harmonics as well as the direction and amplitude of the flow of harmonic power.
Users of MicroLogic H trip units can record manually via the keypad the following waveforms:
-
The four currents: Ia, Ib, Ic, and IN
-
The three phase-to-phase voltages: Vab, Vbc, and Vca
Waveforms may be displayed on the graphic screen of MicroLogic H trip units or communicated over a networked system. The recording takes place over one cycle with a measurement range of 0 to 1.5 IN for current and 0 to 690 volts for voltage. The resolution is sixty-four points per cycle.
Customized Alarm Programming
The instantaneous value of each measurement can be compared to user-set high and low thresholds. Overrun of a threshold generates an alarm. Programmable action can be linked to each alarm, including
Harmonic Trip Unit Event Log
Each event is recorded with:
-
The date, time, and name of the event.
-
The event characteristics.
