GE Medium VoltageMotor Control Contents
The General Electric Limitamp motor control centerprovides an economical means of centralizing motorstarters and related control equipment. It permits motorcontrol starters, feeders, isolator switches, distributiontransformers, interlocking relays, programmable control,metering and other miscellaneous devices to be obtainedin a single floor-mounted structural assembly fed from acommon enclosed main bus.Limitamp motor control centers are constructed ofstandardized heavy gauge vertical sections housingvertical and horizontal buses and compartmentedstarters. Sections are bolted together to form a singleline-up assembly. The entire center may be powered byincoming line connection at a single point. Whenpossible, Limitamp motor control centers bear ULsection and unit labels.

COMPARISON OF CONTROLLER TYPES These functions are basic only and are not intended tobe comprehensive. Ground fault, differential, fault pres-sure, undervoltage, etc., are often required and may alsobe added to a given control. In addition, a transformercontroller must allow for transformer inrush current andnot cause a nuisance trip-out from a momentary line-voltage dip.Transformers must be protected from primary and sec-ondary (winding or downstream) faults. In Limitampcontrollers, current-limiting fuses are applied to protectthe transformer from a primary winding fault, as well asfaults in the conductors from the controller to the trans-former. The fuses are selected to clear high-magnitudefault currents at the first fault half-cycle and allow thecontactor to energize a transformer without operatingon inrush currents. (Inrush currents occur when trans-former is energized, typically 8-12 times rated amperesfor 0.1 seconds) . GE Type EJ-2 current-limiting fuses maybe applied when used with an overcurrent relay that ischosen to coordinate with the EJ-2 fuse and protect thetransformer from damage as a result of a fault in its sec-ondary circuit.PROTECTIONTo determine a basis for protection, refer to ANSI trans-former short-circuit ratings, which define the magnitudeand duration of downstream faults that a transformercan withstand without damage. A relay would have to beset to operate before the damage point is reached. Baseratings, impedance and the connection of the primaryand secondary windings of the transformer must be sup-plied in order to arrive at the relay setting. The relay forthis purpose can be an electronic overload relay.A common problem with single-phased transformers is aphenomenon known as ferroresonance, which can occurwhen an unloaded or lightly loaded transformer sustainsan open conductor in its primary circuit.Ferroresonance causes system overvoltage as a result ofthe transformer core inductance forming a “tuned” cir-cuit with the system distributed capacitance. To avoid fer-roresonance, all three lines must be switched simultane-ously as with a medium-voltage contactor. However, ifone line fuse blows, then single-phasing will occur. Toprevent this, the medium-voltage contactor may be sup-plied with a contactor tripping mechanism that operatesfrom a striker pin located in the fuse. When the fuse ele-ment burns in two, the spring-loaded striker pin isreleased. It projects upward and operates a contact thattrips the contactor. This feature, known as blown fusetrip, would provide positive transformer protection fromsingle-phasing due to blown fuses.
A FULL VOLTAGEThe Limitamp Control across-the-line (FVNR) controlleris the most popular type of controller. In general, high-voltage systems have fewer power restrictions than low-voltage systems; therefore, full-voltage controllers may beapplied to a greater number of applications. Full-voltagecontrollers provide lowest cost, simplicity, minimummaintenance and highest starting torque.REDUCED VOLTAGEPrimary reactor (closed-transition) Limitamp controllersare the most popular of the reduced-voltage type startersbecause they provide a simple, low-cost means of obtain-ing reduced-voltage starts. The starting time is easilyadjustable in the field.Limitamp closed-transition auto-transformer controllersprovide higher starting torque efficiency and a morefavorable power factor during starting than a primaryreactor starter. The transition time can be easily adjustedin the field. NEMA medium-duty reactors and autotrans-formers with 50-, 65- and 80-percent taps are provided asstandard.
REDUCED INRUSHLimitamp wye (star)-delta (closed-transition) startersprovide a means of reducing the starting inrush wherethe starting duty is not limited by the controller. Thistype of controller can be used where extremely longacceleration times are required. Wye-delta starters have avery high torque efficiency. This starter is applicable onlyto six lead motors and no field correction is possible forstarting characteristics. See Table A.2.
TRANSFORMER FEEDERSLimitamp controllers are generally considered motorstarting equipment; however, they are not strictly limitedto motors and can provide very good protection for loadssuch as transformers.Transformers that can be controlled by Limitamp con-trollers must have a primary rated in the 2400- to 7200-volt range.To adequately protect a transformer, it is necessary todefine specific protection requirements. The followingareas will be considered:
1, Transformer winding fault (primary and secondary)
% Single-phasing, resulting in a phenomenon known as“ferroresonance”
3.Transformer overload

GE Medium VoltageMotor Control General
Transformer feeders typically are applied on criticalprocess applications where it is important to maintaincontinuity of operation through a system voltagedisturbance. Mechanically latched contactors allow thecontactor to remain closed during a disturbance. Likecircuit breakers, latched contactors are opened eithermanually or by means of a shunt trip solenoid.
The purchase of factory-prepared space provides aspace unit equipped with vertical power bus, completeinterlocking and isolating mechanisms, operating handleand high-voltage door. It does not include electrical com-ponents.When parts are purchased to fill a future starter, theseconsist of a contactor, power fuses, control power trans-former, CPT fuses and fuse supports, current transform-ers, and low-voltage panel and devices.Table A.2 Comparison of Starting Characteristics

CAPACITOR FEEDERSLimitamp 400 amp contactors are ideally suited forcapacitor switching applications. (Note: 800 Amp is notrated for capacitor switching.)
Capacitors may be switched with the motor, but maxi-mum rating for this function must be determined bymotor design.When the capacitors are provided in Limitamp control,they are normally mounted in an auxiliary enclosurebeside the Limitamp controller. A capacitor rated up to200 KVAR can be mounted in the top of a two-highCR194 enclosure with the controller in the bottom.(See Table B.7 for capacitor switching capacities.)

•Quick-make quick-break non load-break disconnect —Disconnection of the starter from the main bus isaccompanied by a quick-make quick-break non load-break disconnect switch. This switch improves theoverall control integrity by eliminating the need to rackout the contactor to isolate the load from the power bus.
•Viewing window — The switch is equipped with aviewing window for visual assurance that the disconnectcontacts are open, and a full barrier for personnel safety.When the plunger on the handle is depressed, the CPTsecondary is (isolated) disconnected, Which drops outthe contactor coil. Then, when the handle is thrown tothe “off’ position, the CPT primary and the high volt-age compartment are isolated from line power.
•Dependable performance — Vacuum Limitampcontrol is coordinated to provide the required motorprotection functions and offer reliable overcurrentprotection against the damaging effects of overloadsand short circuits.
CR194 VACUUM STATIONARY& DRAWOUT*f
INTRODUCTIONCR194 Vacuum Limitamp Control is a high-interrupting-capacity, high-voltage control used throughout industryto control and protect squirrel-cage, wound-rotor andsynchronous motors. It can also be used to feed trans-formers and other power-utilization circuits.Typical applications are in paper, steel, cement, rubber,mining, petroleum, chemical and utility-type industries.Limitamp control is also used in water and sewage plantsand public buildings for air conditioning, pumps andcompressors.
aFEATURES•Easily removable contactor — The stationary or
drawout contactors can be easily removed by looseningeasily accessible bolts. Front access to the coil and tipwear checks will substantially reduce the need toremove the contactor in normal circumstances.
•400 or 800 Ampere Contactor — Vacuum Limitampcontrol meets the varying needs of industry includingtoday’s higher horsepower requirements.
•NEMA rated — Vacuum Limitamp control is fully ratedand designed to meet the requirements of NEMA ICS3, Part 2 Class E2 controllers.
•UL rated — Vacuum Limitamp control is fully ratedand designed to meet the requirements of UL 347.
•Self-contained power bus — Vertical power bus is astandard feature of Vacuum Limitamp control.Horizontal power bus is available within the standard90-inch height and lines up with that of previousLimitamp designs. The power bus ratings have capacityfor extended lineups and larger starter requirements.
•Installation ease — Provision for cable runs from thetop and bottom; easily accessible terminals and smalloverall size make installation fast and easy.
•Proven reliability — Vacuum Limitamp control utilizesthe latest vacuum interrupter technology for long,reliable service.
•Simplified construction — The operating mechanismsinside Vacuum Limitamp control have been simplifiedfor further improvements in reliability and ease ofmaintenance.
•Cooler operation — The reduced power losses ofvacuum interrupters, coupled with other designimprovements, provide a controller that is cooleroperating to further enhance service life.
INTERRUPTING RATINGSThe interrupting ratings of the controllers vary with thevalue of the utilization voltage. The following tabledepicts typical NEMA El (unfused) interrupting ratingsfor Class El controllers.

In addition to normal motor protective relays, NEMAClass El Limitamp control must include instantaneousovercurrent relays to signal the contactor to open onfault current. NEMA Class El Limitamp control may beemployed on systems having available short-circuitcurrents up to the interrupting rating of the contactor.Relaying, metering, ground fault protection andlightning arresters are typical of available modifications.NEMA Class E2 Limitamp control incorporates thehigh-interrupting capacity of fast-acting fuses. Thesecurrent-limiting fuses protect both the connected equip-ment and control against the high short-circuit currentavailable from modern power systems. (See Table B.2.)

VACUUM CONTACTORSThe vacuum contactors supplied with Vacuum Limitampare of the magnetically held type. They are fully rated at400 or 800 amperes in accordance with NEMA and ULstandards. The contactors differ in size, weight andmethod of termination. The vacuum interrupters arealso different among the various models and are notinterchangeable due to their different current ratings,and variations in interlock and wire harness mounting.The contactor may be easily removed for service in eachof the designs available, providing easy access for normalmaintenance, such as vacuum interrupter wear checksand replacement of the operating coil, without removingthe contactor. The only time the contactor needs to beremoved is to replace a vacuum interrupter at the end ofits service life or to adjust the vacuum interrupter forwear on the interrupter tips.The standard contactors for industrial motor startersare closed by a single magnet and are held closed by thesame magnet. This contributes to simplicity of mechani-cal design and increases the mechanical life of thecontactor. Standard contactors may not need adjustmentor mechanical repair for many years, primarily due tomechanical simplicity and sturdiness. However, preven-tive maintenance checks at least once per year arerecommended.Low voltage on the contactor operating coil of an electri-cally held contactor will cause the contactor to open. Formost motor applications, it is desirable to disconnect themotor from the line when the system voltage is lost orlowered appreciably; therefore, the electrically held con-tactor is appropriate. The DC operating coil of the con-tactor is designed to be used with a holding circuit tolimit coil current. The contactor coil is designed for useon 115 volts rectified AC or 125 volts DC.For all NEMA Class El controllers, the contactor mustbe capable of interrupting the available short-circuitcurrent. For these applications, instantaneous overcur-rent relays must be used to interrupt the contactor coilcurrent. See Table B.5 for additional technical specifica-tions on the vacuum contactor.
Figure B.2 400-Ampere Vacuum Contactor
LATCHED CONTACTORSThere are some applications where it is not desirable todisconnect the motor from the line during voltagedepression. These applications are generally those associ-ated with a critical drive where the continued rotation ofthe drive may be more important than possible damageto the motor from low voltage.The mechanical latch maintains contactor closure underthe most severe undervoltage conditions, including com-plete loss of voltage. Latched contactors may be specifiedif required by the application. The standard close andtrip coils are designed for use on 120 volts rectified ACor 125 volts DC. Trip coils are also available in 24V, 48Vand 220V. A manual release feature is provided as stan-dard. Capacitor trip devices can also be used for releaseon the trip coils.The Limitamp latched contactors are identical to theunlatched versions, with the exception of a small latchattachment mounted on the contactor, which slightlyincreases the depth of the contactor.Latched contactors are interchangeable mechanicallywith the standard non-latched versions, both fromlatched to non-latched, and vice versa. However, in eachcase, it is necessary to change the wiring in the controlcircuit to the contactor coil or coils and to change theenclosure door to accommodate the manual latchrelease knob.

APPLICATION NOTES — VACUUM CONTACTORS ing the zero-crossing, leaving in its place a very highdielectric vacuum space. Chopping occurs just beforethe current zero crossing because the arc becomes unsta-ble under the light current conditions and prematurelyinterrupts the current. The instantaneous level of cur-rent when this interruption occurs is called the “chop”current. The magnitude of the resulting voltage tran-sients is the product of the “chop current” and the loadsurge impedance.GE employs special metallurgy in its tip design to mini-mize chopping. The tip material consists of a sinteredtungsten-carbide material that is impregnated with silver.The tungsten provides long life in hot arcing conditions,and the silver provides for low chop currents. In chopcurrent tests performed on GE’s 400 ampere vacuumcontactors, it was found that the load surge impedancehad significant effect on the average chop current. Forexample, tests with a surge impedance of 1000 ohmsyielded average chop currents of 1.2 amperes but only0.28 amperes with 4500 ohms surge impedance. Theselevels of chop currents cause little concern for motorinsulation systems.
If motors are expected to be “jogged” or frequentlyswitched-off while accelerating up to speed, surge sup-pressing devices discussed earlier should be seriouslyconsidered to minimize the effects of long term motorwinding insulation degradation due to multiple re-igni-tion transients that can occur while interrupting motorinrush currents. Multiple re-ignitions are surges of arc-ing current across an opening vacuum interrupter tipthat occur in the first few micro-seconds after the tipspart. Multiple re-ignitions are virtually non-existentwhile interrupting normal motor running currents.
Switching Transients and Vacuum ContactorsVoltage transients when transmitted downstream canbe harmful to motor insulation systems. The transientsoccur in most electrical systems and are usually due toswitching surges or lightning strikes. Vacuum contactorswitching is only one source of voltage transients. Forthese reasons GE recommends that customers installsurge capacitors and arresters at the motor terminals forvacuum as well as airbreak contactor applications. Thesurge capacitors reduce the steepness of the voltage tran-sient wavefront, thus reducing the stress on the motorinsulation.Vacuum contactors have proven their suitability as a reli-able and safe means of controlling motors, transformers,and capacitor loads. This has been demonstrated by avery good track record over a period of more than 10years in Vacuum Limitamp equipment and much longerin GE Power-Vac switchgear equipment.
Also, an independent EPRI study, investigating the relia-bility of vacuum switching devices a number of years ago,concluded “... motors switched by vacuum devices hadfailure rates which are no higher than those for motorsswitched by air or air-magnetic devices.”
Chopping Transients in Vacuum LimitampThe vacuum switching device is among the best switchingdevice available because it most frequently interruptsload currents in an “ideal” fashion — that is, when theload current is at a current zero. However, there is aprobability that some switching operations may producevoltage transients due to chopping. Chopping is a phe-nomenon that occasionally occurs as the currentthrough a contactor pole is interrupted during a contac-tor opening operation.To understand the nature of chopping, a little under-standing of what occurs as a vacuum contactor interruptscurrent is necessary. When the operating coil of a vacu-um contactor is de-energized, kick-out springs in thecontactor cause the armature to open and force the vac-uum interrupter tips to part. Any current that is flowingthrough the tips at the instant of parting continues to arcacross the open tips. This arcing continues until thesinusoidally varying current approaches zero. As thepolarity reverses across the open tips, current ceases toflow because all charge carriers in the arc disappear dur-
Vacuum Interrupter IntegrityThe loss of interrupter integrity due to loss of vacuum isa potential concern because the vacuum interrupterceases to act as an interrupter if vacuum is lost. VacuumLimitamp interrupters are tested three times during themanufacturing process for vacuum integrity. Historically,this process has reliably eliminated loss of vacuum dur-ing normal product operation. To maintain integrity,annual hipot checks are recommended as part of a user’snormal preventative maintenance practice. The recom-mended hipot test voltage is 20 kV AC RMS for the 400ampere and 800 ampere contactors. The hipot proceduresare described in equipment instructions GEH-5305.
B5
GE Medium VoltageMotor Control Controllers
Table B.5 Vacuum Contactor Technical SpecificationsAC vs.DC HipotThe AC hipot is recommended for vacuum interruptersbecause DC hipot may indicate problems with a goodinterrupter. The reason for this is complex, but inessence there may be microscopic gap broaching “anom-alies” across the open interrupter tips that the DC hipotcannot distinguish from real problems such as a loss ofvacuum. AC hipot systems, on the other hand are ableto “burn-off’ these anomalies, allowing the good inter-rupter to recover (Normal contactor load currents willalso burn-off these anomalies) .
If it is desired to use a DC hipot on a vacuum contactor,it is important to recognize that the results may falselyindicate a bad bottle. Also, DC voltage levels should notbe greater than 1.4 times the recommended AC RMSvalue in order to maintain a safe margin of voltage to X-ray emission. At 35kV small amounts of X-ray radiationmay be emitted. The level of emission is well below theallowable levels established in ANSI 37.85-1972. UsingDC hipot at 28 kV (1.4 x 20 kV AC RMS) does maintaina safe margin to X-ray emission.

CR7160 AIR-BREAK DRAWOUTINTRODUCTIONAir-break Limitamp control is high-interrupting capacityhigh-voltage control used throughout industry to controland protect squirrel-cage, wound-rotor and synchronousmotors. It can also be used to feed transformers andother power-utilization circuits.Typical applications are in paper, steel, cement, rubber,mining, petroleum, chemical, and utility-type industries.Limitamp control is also typically used in water andsewage plants and public buildings for air conditioning,pumps and compressors.
INTERRUPTING RATINGSLimitamp control is designed to meet NEMA ICS 3, Part2 and UL 347 requirements with a 60-kV BIL rating. Itemploys fast-acting current-limiting power fuses, a draw-out air-break contactor rated either 400 amperes open(360 amperes, enclosed, NEMA 1, vented, one-highenclosure) or 700 amperes open (630 amperes,enclosed, NEMA 1, vented, one-high enclosure) , andambient-compensated overload relays for complete con-trol and protection of motors used on modern power uti-lization systems with high available short-circuit currents.The 400-ampere unfused contactors have an interrupt-ing rating of 50 mVA; the 700-ampere unfused contactor,75 mVA.In addition to normal motor protective relays, NEMAClass El Limitamp control includes instantaneous over-current relays to signal the contactor to open on faultcurrent, NEMA Class El Limitamp control may beemployed on systems having available short-circuit cur-rents up to the interrupting rating of the contactor.Relaying, metering, ground fault protection, and light-ning arresters are typical of available modifications.
NEMA class E2 Limitamp control incorporates the high-interrupting capacity of fast-acting fuses. These current-limiting fuses protect both the connected equipmentand control against the high short-circuit current avail-able from modern power systems.CR7160 control is designed for operation on the follow-ing power systems.

CR7160 TWO-HIGH 400 AMPTwo-high packaging accommodates two contactors in theenclosure, with basic dimensions of 44 inches wide, 90inches high, and 30 inches deep. It is constructed in ver-tical sections of two space units each. Two FVNR induc-tion starters may be housed in a vertical section.Cable sizes which may be accommodated in a two-highdesign are reduced slightly from that which may be con-nected in the one-high design. (Refer to Table B.ll forcable size limitations.)The enclosure is designed to safely permit terminationof one set of motor leads while the other controller isenergized. The two sets of motor cables are isolatedfrom one another. Incoming power cable raceway is alsoisolated. All sets of cables may be brought into the starterfrom the top or the bottom.Control relay space is available in a separate compart-ment with its own door and barriers. Approximatelythree extra control relays in addition to a ground faultrelay and time-delay undervoltage protection can bemounted in the low-voltage compartment. One ammeterand switch, four push buttons, and four lights can bemounted on the low-voltage door. If no extra controlrelays are used, a watt hour meter can be mounted onthe door.
BASIC CONSTRUCTIONLimitamp starters may be stacked multi-high (two- orthree-high), where horsepower rating and need formetering and relaying is limited to allow stacking. SeeTable B.10 for horsepower and ampere limitations inmulti-high construction. Non-stack design (one-high) isnormally used for synchronous-motor starters, wound-rotor starters, and squirrel-cage induction starters, whichhave a considerable number of extra control functions,protective relays, and/or metering. All enclosures havethe same bus location and may be connected together bybus splicing plates.
CR7160 ONE-HIGH 400 AMPThe one-high packaging (one 400 amp contactor perenclosure) has basic dimensions of 34 inches wide, 90inches high and 30 inches deep, including power bus. Itis constructed to house a single drawout contactor in thehigh-voltage compartment located at floor level. Theentire upper compartment is available for low-voltageequipment and includes a swing-out panel for ease ofmounting and accessibility.This enclosure will accommodate cable sizes as shown inTable B.ll. Cable may enter from top or bottom withoutmodification. Top or bottom cable entrance in the enclo-sure need not be specified.
CR7160 THREE-HIGH 400 AMPThree-high packaging (up to three FVNR starters perenclosure) sharply reduces floor space requirements. Itis constructed in vertical sections of three space unitseach. Each space unit is capable of housing one full-volt-age, nonreversing squirrel-cage motor starter. You canpurchase one or two starters per vertical section and addothers later in factory-prepared space units. Althoughthe enclosure is only 44 inches wide x 90 inches high x30 inches deep (including power bus), an isolatedmotor-cabling compartment and an isolated incomingpower-cabling compartment is included.

The standard contactors for industrial motor starters areclosed by a single magnet and are held closed by thesame magnet. This contributes to simplicity of mechani-cal design and increases the mechanical life of the con-tactor. Mechanical latch contactors are available as anoption and are explained on page B4.See Table B.14 for additional technical specifications onthe air magnetic contactors.
WEIGHTS AND DIMENSIONSLimitamp control varies in weight by starter type andconstruction. The approximate weight for estimatingpurposes is included in the Table B.12.All Limitamp control has a common height of 90 inchesand a common depth of 30 inches. However, the overallwidth varies with type of Limitamp and is included inTable B.12.For convenience in handling and installation, Limitampcontrol is equipped with removable lifting angles or lugs.Power bus for electrically connecting sections ofLimitamp control does not add to the standard 90-inchheight.
Figure B.6 CR7160 400-ampere air-break contactor is fuiiy ratedand compietely roll out or drawout
DRAW OUT AIR-BREAK CONTACTORSThe air-break contactor normally furnished on Limitampcontrol is of the magnetically held-in type. It is drawoutand fully rated at 400 or 700 amperes (eight-hour openrating) in accordance with NEMA and UL standards.Both the 400- and 700-ampere contactors have the samebasic design but with current-carrying parts of differentcapacity. This uniquely constructed contactor can actual-ly be swung open, exposing all integral parts for rapidinspection and maintenance. Power fuses are combinedwith the contactor to form a single assembly which iscompletely drawout without disconnecting cables.
r iV .I i f
In one-high Limitamp control, the drawout contactor,which may be rated 400 or 700 amperes, is mounted onwheels and can be easily rolled out of or into the floor-level high-voltage compartment. The contactor can beswung open after simple removal from the enclosure.The DC operating coil of the contactor is designed to beused with a holding impedance that is inserted after thecontactor is fully closed to limit coil current. The con-tactor coil is designed for use on 120 volts AC (rectified)or 125 volts DC control source.Two- and three-high Limitamp control uses the 400-ampere contactor only. It is mounted on slide rails foreasy removal and can be swung open within the enclo-sure from its drawout inspection position. Normalinspection and maintenance is done with the contactorin the enclosure. A contactor lifting table is available forcontactor removal during installation.

lineup. For the 1200-ampere switch, fuses are availableup to 960 amperes continuous. These large fuses must beapplied as line protectors for short circuit only, relyingupon branch circuits or backup overload protection byother means.Drawout switches must be applied as feeders only. Thefixed mounted switches may be used as incoming switch-es or feeder switches.These switches are designed specifically for use withLimitamp control. They are available with 1000- or 2000-ampere AC main power bus within the enclosure for easylineup with Limitamp starters.Other features of these switches are:
•Viewing window to see condition and position of switchblades.
•Blown-fuse indicator that can be seen throughview window.
•Bolted fuses available for maximum reliability.•High reliability interruption.•Available with key-type interlocks. Maximum of three
keys per position (lock open or lock closed).•Outside door interlocked directly to shaft to prevent
opening with switch energized.•Externally operated handle that activates spring-
charged quick-make/quick-break mechanism.•Easy inspection.•High mechanical life.
INTRODUCTIONIC1074 load-break switches are manually operatedtriple-pole, single-throw disconnecting switches with anintegral interrupter and stored-energy spring that hasthe capability of interrupting magnetizing and loadcurrent within the ratings shown in Table C.l. They aredesigned and tested to comply with the performancerequirements of ANSI Specification G37.57 and C37.58.The IC1074 600-ampere drawout switch is designed forstab connection at line and load terminals. This switchmust be fused. Current-limiting fuses are available up toa continuous rating of 630 amperes for installation inthe switch.
c
Figure C.1600-ampere drawout load-break switch
The switch is designed to accommodate the bolt-onversion of the current-limiting fuse, but clip mountingis available. Construction may be either one- or two-high,with one-high in a rollout design instead of drawout.Either two switches or a combination switch and 5kV air-break starter can be mounted in a two-high enclosure.
The IC1074 stationary switch (600- or 1200-ampere) isdesigned for mounting in one-high construction only. Itcontains line- and load-terminal pads for bolting incom-ing and outgoing conductors directly to the switch. Itmay be supplied fused or unfused. If supplied as anunfused switch, an upstream circuit breaker with instan-taneous trips must be available to coordinate with switchcapabilities — or the switch must be supplied with keylock capabilities — for all of the Limitamp starters in the

ENCLOSURES foot. Exterior finish is applied by an electro-static powdercoat process (polyester based).NEMA TYPE 1 — GENERAL PURPOSE
The NEMA Type 1 is the standard Limitamp enclosuredesigned primarily to prevent accidental contact withcontrol apparatus. This enclosure is suitable for generalpurpose indoor applications with normal atmospheres.For CR194 two-high design with vented enclosures, add2Vi” to the height.
NEMA TYPE 4 — WATERTIGHTThis enclosure must withstand the hose test as describedin NEMA standards and must preclude the entry of waterunder such test. It is intended for use in installationssuch as dairies or paper mills where cleaning is donewith hoses.
Strip heaters are furnished.NEMA TYPE 1A — GASKETEDThe NEMA Type 1A rubber-gasketed enclosure is a dust-resistant enclosure (not dust-tight), designed to giveprotection against dust, and when control devices areproperly selected, to give proper operation in a dustyatmosphere. It is recommended for all moderately dustyatmospheres, especially in those industries whose dustare abrasive, conductive, or form high-resistance contacts.NEMA Type 1A rubber-gasketed enclosures are not pro-vided with steel bottoms. It is expected that the case willsit on concrete, effectively sealing the bottom against dust.
NEMA TYPE 12 — DUSTTIGHTThese cases are designed to meet the requirements ofindustrial locations where protection is required againstentrance of fibers and flying lint, dust, dirt, light splash-ings, seepage dripping and external condensation ofnon-corrosive liquids.Typical requirements for NEMA 12 are:
•A gasketed cover that is hinged to swing horizontally,and held in place with screws, bolts or other suitablefasteners.
•No open holes through the enclosure. All openings aresealed with gasketed cover plates.
•No conduit knockouts or knockout openings.•Steel bottom.
E
NEMA TYPE 2 — DRIPTIGHTThis enclosure is made to protect control apparatusagainst falling moisture or dirt. All openings are rubber-gasketed and provided with doors or covers. It is intend-ed for use in atmospheres where condensation is heavyor where quantities of water are used in a process or forcleaning. (For applications where a hose is to be directedon the equipment from any direction except above, useNEMA Type 4.) Normal instruments, meters and devicesare mounted on the door as in NEMA Type 1. Stripheaters are used only as the application requires them.
INDOOR ENCLOSURE CONSTRUCTIONLimitamp indoor enclosures are manufactured from 12-gauge steel throughout, except for 13-gauge on the rearcovers. For surface preparation, see the Application Datasection.
NEMA TYPE 3R — WEATHER-RESISTANTThese enclosures must be suitable for outdoor installationand offer protection against driving rain and snowstorms, as well as against dust. Limitamp NEMA 3Renclosures are provided with solid-steel bottoms andtops, an overhanging sloping roof and strip heaters,with provisions for future extension.The following types of NEMA 3R enclosures are available:
•NEMA Type 3R, weather-resistant, full-height coverdoor, non-walk-in (42 inches deep by 101 inches high).(Use when a number of devices are on the door.)
•NEMA Type 3R, weather-resistant walk-in (92 inchesdeep by 111K inches high).
Walk-in enclosures allow ample space for inspection andmaintenance of starters within the enclosure.Standard construction is suitable for wind velocities of130 mph and roof loading up to 30 pounds per square
CHOICE OF MOUNTING — INDOORYou may select either back-to-back (60 inches deep)or back-to-wall (30-inches deep) mounting, letting youarrange control lineups to your own floor space andapplication requirements.

LIMITAMP BUS SYSTEMSAC power bus is used for conducting power throughouta group of starters joined together in a lineup. Incomingpower cable can be terminated at one or more points inthe lineup and the power bus employed to distributepower throughout the length of the group.
This bus is available in ratings of 1000 and 2000 amperesand may be tin-plated copper, silver-plated copper orbare copper. For higher ratings refer to factory. Deratingis necessary in certain applications. The horizontal buscompartment is located within the standard 90-inch-highenclosure in the same position as in current andprevious air-break designs, dating back to 1960, makingall compatible. Limitamp horizontal bus is rated 60kVbasic impulse level (1.2 x 50 p sec wave) . Mechanicalstrength under short-circuit currents is 50 kA RMSsymmetrical.

GROUND BUSGround bus in a Limitamp lineup provides a low-resis-tance path between ground connection points in anygroup of controllers. This low-resistance path is a bus barand is for the purpose of decreasing to a low value a pos-sibly hazardous voltage difference between groundingpoints in the starter group. These voltage differenceswould occur under ground fault conditions if a low-resis-tance ground path were not provided.The ground bus is normally located near the AC powerbus on the inside rear of the enclosure. The bus providesa common termination point for all ground connectionswithin each controller, including the enclosing case, andoffers a convenient terminal for incoming ground cables.It should be noted that the customer must make a suit-

POTENTIAL BUSPotential bus is a means of distributing a common sourceof low voltage throughout the lineup for metering andinstrumentation. Potential bus consists of properly sizedwire connected between terminal boards typicallymounted on the top inside of enclosure. Maximumvoltage is 600 volts.
INSULATED POWER BUSInsulating the AC power bus reduces the possibility ofbus faults from causes such as surge voltages, ionizedvapors, falling objects ( tools, etc. ) , ground tapes, etc. Italso prevents corrosion and oxidation of the bus and itshardware.The standard power bus consists of bar conductors oninsulator supports. Insulation for the conductors can beprovided, and it may consist of various types of insulat-ing material, such as 130°C HV rubber splicing tape orother material dictated by availability and individual jobrequirements.The CR194 two-high Vacuum Equipment design usesepoxy-insulated main and vertical bus as standard.

GE Medium VoltageMotor Control Protection& Control
FUSESIKTRODUCTIONTo protect the motor branch circuit against the damag-ing effects of short circuits, current-limiting power fusesare used in Limitamp control. They interrupt all overcur-rents of magnitude greater than intended for contactorinterruption. On full fault, these fuses start limiting cur-rent within the first lA cycle and interrupt within the firstA cycle. Because they are fast acting, these fuses are easilycoordinated with system protective relaying to give selec-tivity in short-circuit protection.
Standard fuses supplied with Limitamp CR194 Controlare bolt-in type. Clip-in fuses may be supplied in applica-tions where motor full-load current plus service factordoes not exceed 320 amperes, but they must be specifiedby the customer. The blown fuse indicator and the anti-single-phase trip are available with bolt-in fuses only.Motor-starting fuses are current-limiting as indicated inFigure F.l. They melt before the current in the firstmajor loop can reach its peak value when subjected tomelting currents within the current-limiting range.Consequently, the total “let-through” energy involved islow because the fuses operate with such great speed. Thecontactor, current transformers, and overload relays of aLimitamp controller are coordinated with the fuses togive full protection to the system.
A design feature of motor-starting fuses inherently limitsrecovery voltage to safe values, thus protecting controlinsulation.Controller fuses must have sufficient capacity to carrystarting and full-load currents, and yet must interruptfault currents at a desirable low value. They are thereforemade in a number of ratings or sizes so that maximumprotection can be obtained over a range of motor horse-powers.For a given set of motor characteristics, it is usuallypossible to use one of several fuses. The smallest fuseswill normally be furnished. If the load is a fluctuatingone, involving swings of current above full-load, the factshould be noted in specifying a controller so that a fuseone size larger than minimum will be furnished.Transient conditions do not generally affect motor-start-ing fuses since the sand in the fuse conducts heat awayrapidly. If transient currents do not come within 25percent of the minimum melting curve on a time basis,melting will not occur. For example, if the melting curvefor a given size fuse shows melting in 10 seconds at 1000amperes, transient peaks of 1000 amperes would be with-stood repeatedly up to 7.5 seconds duration.

Figure F.1 Current-limiting action of typical fuse.
Motor-starting fuses can be applied on 25-Hertz systemsbut with lower interrupting capacity than for 50- and 60-Hertz systems. Fuse selection is based on full-load andlocked-rotor current.For a lineup of controllers it may be desirable to usefuses larger than minimum size to reduce the variety ofspares required. Such standardization must be specified,however.
BLOWN FUSE TRIP AND BLOWN FUSE INDICATIONThe possibility of having one fuse melt, thereby causing alarge motor to single phase, has inhibited considerationof fuse-contactor-type starters. Although such a conditionis in reality quite unlikely, GE Limitamp Control can beequipped with an optional special mechanism which willdetect a blown fuse and cause the contactor to open.Bolt-on fuses contain button indicators to show a blownfuse. This button indicator can be coupled with ananti-single-phase trip mechanism containing a controlcontact, which, when used in contactor control circuit,can open the contactor to prevent single phasing and/orprovide a blown fuse indication on the front door. Blownfuse indication on the front door is available for CR194equipment only.

SURGE PROTECTIONThe economics of rotating-machine insulation dictatesthat the machines be protected from voltage stressesabove the operating level insofar as is reasonably possi-ble. Overvoltage damages reduce the insulation life.There are many causes of accidental over-voltage whoseeffects may be reduced by protective means. The mostprominent causes are:
1. Lightning.2. Physical contact with higher voltage system.3. Repetitive restrike (intermittent grounds).4. Switching surges.5. Resonance effects in series inductive
capacitance circuits.Switching transients occur in every electrical system. Awell-known phenomenon associated with vacuum inter-rupters is current chop. GE utilizes vacuum interruptersconstructed with widely accepted contact tip materials toprovide low chopping currents.Additional protection against surges for rotatingmachines may be economically attractive for system volt-age installations of 2300 volts and above. This consists ofa surge capacitor and lightning arresters.Lightning arresters reduce the amplitude of the voltageimpulse wave. The surge capacitor further reduces theamplitude — but in addition, reduces the steepness ofthe wave front. It is important to reduce the steepness ofthe surge wave front to keep the turn-to-turn voltagestress in the machine winding to a minimum.To prevent overvoltage in current transformer secondarycircuits during switching, CTs should be provided withThyrite protectors when surge capacitors are installed atmotor terminals.Surge capacitors and arresters should be installed asclose to the machine terminals as possible. Capacitorsand arresters require a 22-inch wide auxiliary enclosureif installed in the controller.

With this feature, fuses are always bolted in place for cor-rect orientation and alignment. In addition to providingmaximum reliability, this feature makes it impossible tomount the fuse in an upside down position which wouldnullify the trip bar operation.
COORDINATION WITH OTHER PROTECTIVEDEVICESWhen Limitamp starters are installed on a given powersystem, it is necessary to coordinate the time-currentcharacteristics of system protective devices with those ofthe starters. Use the time-current curves included in GETime Current Curve No. GES-5000 for this purpose. Itincludes overload-relay tripping curves, fuse-meltingcurves and fuse-clearing time curves.

OVERLOAD RELAYS MULTIFUNCTION SOLID-STATE RELAYSLarge motors on vital drives need accurate protectionagainst overloads, phase unbalance or ground faults.Multifunction solid-state relays are available from GEthat offer total motor protection in one compact pack-age. Basic protective functions such as overtemperature,overload, instantaneous overcurrent, open-phase, phasereversal, phase unbalance, ground-fault, load jam, loadloss and bearing overtemperature protection can beprovided.
Several types of overload relays are used in LimitampControl. Limitamp controllers use thermal-overloadrelays, unless other types are specified.
THERMAL-OVERLOAD RELAYSOverload relays provided in Limitamp control haveinverse-time characteristics and are ambient compensat-ed. Limitamp control utilizes either a thermal-type relayor the solid-state protective relay. These relays, operatingfrom current transformers in the control equipment,carry current proportional to the motor-circuit current.When motor overloads occur, the relay operates to openthe main power contactor. The time required for opera-tion varies inversely with the magnitude of the overload.The standard thermal relay should only be used onmotors with starting times up to 10 seconds.
OVERTEMPERATURE RELAYSSome motors have RTDs placed in the stator slots. Thepurpose is to obtain an indication of winding tempera-ture by measuring the RTD resistance and its changewith temperature. Difficulty arises in obtaining a contin-uously accurate indication of temperatures, however,because of the time lag of heat transfer from the statorconductors to the RTD caused by the insulating materialsurrounding the conductors. Temperature changes inthe conductor will not be reflected in RTD resistancechange until heat is transferred through the thermalresistance and capacitance of the insulating material.
F EXTERNAL-RESET OVERLOADSSome industrial plants do not permit a machine opera-tor to open the doors of control equipment enclosures,this being reserved for electricians. To make possibleoverload-relay reset by operators, it is therefore necessaryto provide some means to do so outside the enclosingcase. This is accomplished by providing a mechanical-linkage reset mechanism between the relay and door-mounted reset button.Where external reset is not absolutely necessary, greatersimplification of relay mounting results, and this is ofbenefit to the user because it simplifies maintenance.Inasmuch as the tripping of an overload device is indica-tive of too much strain on the motor, it is preferable thatonly experienced and reliable personnel be allowed toreset overloads. Such personnel should be capable ofrealizing whether it was an unintentional overload onthe part of the machine operator or whether there is anelectrical and/or mechanical defect. The customershould consider this factor, however, before electing toprovide externally reset overloads.

Figure FA Approximate temperature of RTD in iarge motorduring locked rotor.
If the copper temperature is changing very rapidly, suchas during locked rotor, the RTD will lag far behind thecopper temperature as shown in Figure F.4.Consequently, monitoring the RTD temperature is inad-equate for thermal protection during rapid-transientconditions. However, for steady-state indication of tem-perature, the RTD is very accurate.A relay which responds to changes in resistance of RTDs,providing steady-state indication of motor-winding tem-perature, used in conjunction with a bimetallic overloadrelay will provide reasonably precise over-temperatureprotection for the motor.Available solid-state relays contain a device which willmore accurately compute hot-spot temperature by utiliz-ing RTD amperes and line amperes. This relay accurately
SOLID-STATE OVERLOAD RELAYSSolid-state overcurrent protection is available as anoptional feature in place of standard thermal overloadrelays. The inverse-time characteristics can be adjusted toprotect motors of various characteristics, such as longacceleration time or short allowable-stall times.Characteristics are accurate and have a smaller errorband compared to bimetal relays. The solid-state over-load relay is recommended for hermetically sealed air-conditioning motors, and is well suited as a stall-protec-tion relay.
F3
GE Medium VoltageMotor Control Protection& Control
fault is located at a point of high impedance inside themotor winding, and this is the reason why straight over-current relays alone do not always give adequate protection.The cost of this type of relaying is justified by the size ofthe investment to be protected. Large motors (usuallyabove 1500 hp) that are expensive to repair or replaceoften employ differential relays.Specifically, differential relays accomplish the following:
1. Provide for power interruption to a motor in theevent of a phase-to-phase insulation failure in themotor windings.
2. Provide for power interruption to a motor in theevent of a phase-to-ground fault in the motor winding.
The primary use of differential relays in LimitampControllers is to give fast, sensitive protection for faultsin the end turn outside the stator punchings. Such faultsare relatively rare compared with ground faults. However,when they do occur, the presence of differential relayswould probably mean the difference between minor andextensive damage.Two methods of differential protection are available.One uses six identical current transformers: three locat-ed in the motor leads and three located in the wye pointsof the motor windings, usually at the motor. In conjunc-tion with these six current transformers, a Type IJD orCFD relay is used to detect the difference in current inthe current transformer (CTs). The other method,known as self-balancing, uses three donut-type CTs. Boththe motor leads and the wye connections are broughtback through the holes in the donut CTs. For this system,an instantaneous relay of the hand-reset type is used.
tracks motor heating and is recommended in preferenceto the separate bimetal relay and RTD relay.
OPEN-PHASE AND PHASE-UNBALANCEPROTECTIONA three-phase motor may be damaged when subjected tounbalanced line currents. Usually, the damage occurs inthe rotor from overheating, caused by reverse sequencecomponents of currents not detected by normal overloaddevices. The rate of motor heating will be a function ofthe degree of phase unbalance, the most extreme ofwhich is the open-phase condition. For that reason,open-phase relays should operate instantaneously toavoid serious motor damage. Likewise, a motor maybe damaged over a period of time with as little as 10%unbalance, where unbalance is a transient conditionwhich would not justify instantaneous shutdown.Consequently, the time to trip should be delayed inproportion to the percentage of unbalance.More comprehensive open-phase or single-phase protec-tion can be obtained by applying a solid-state motor-protective relay, which will trip the contactor in theevent of an open phase, regardless of the cause, evenif external to the vacuum Limitamp control.A possible concern that may arise when applying a medi-um-volt contactor to a transformer feeder is what hap-pens to the contactor when a voltage dip occurs. In thepast, the contactor would drop out — removing powerfrom the primary of the transformer when the contactorcoil power is reduced to 60 to 80 percent of full voltage.To prevent dropout during loss of control voltage, latch-ing contactors should be applied. In these cases, thecontactor is latched by a closing coil and unlatched by atrip coil. A capacitor trip device can be applied to tripthe contactor in the event of total loss of control power.(See Latched Contactors, page B4.)
F
GROUND-FAULT RELAYSGround fault relays are justified economically for allmotors rated 2300 to 7200 volts, 150 horsepower andabove. The purpose is to provide interruption of powerto the motor as rapidly as is practical after positive indi-cation that a ground fault has occurred.The time of interruption of ground-fault current isdependent on several factors:
1. Sensitivity of the ground-fault relay.(a) Instantaneous type
(b) Time-delay type
2. Magnitude of ground current.3. Clearing time of the power interrupter.
The importance of clearing ground-fault current rapidlycannot be overstressed. Ground current inside rotating
CURRENT DIFFERENTIAL PROTECTIONThe term differential, as applied to a type of protectiverelaying, designates the principle on which the schemeoperates — that is, a difference in current. The relaysused are connected in such a way as to detect a percent-age differential in current between ends of a motor wind-ing. Ordinarily, in a machine operating without a wind-ing fault, the current into one end of a phase winding isequal to the current out the other end of the same wind-ing. When a fault occurs, however, the current into oneend of the winding is short circuited inside the machine(to another phase or to ground) at the place of fault, sothat a differential occurs between current “in” and cur-rent “out.” This causes the relay to operate. The percent-age differential may at times be quite small when the
F4
GE Medium VoltageMotor Control Protection& Control
tactor clearing times are such that ground-fault currentsup to and including the fuse rating will be cleared with-out damage to the controller.Standard ground-fault relay used in Vacuum LimitampControl is a solid-state relay which operates on approxi-mately 4 to 12 amperes ground-fault current. If greatersensitivity is required, other solid-state ground-faultrelays may be furnished which can be adjusted to trip aslow as 1 ampere. However, extreme care must be exer-cised in applying ground-fault relays of such low pick up.They could trip falsely on system-charging current. Amagnetic ground-fault relay can be provided on request.
machines causes damage to the lamination which, if notinterrupted rapidly, necessitates complete disassemblyand repair of the motor.Although most ground-fault relays are now of the instan-taneous type, few applications do require inverse-timecurrent relays for coordination and selectivity reasons.The use of instantaneous-type relays is made possiblethrough the employment of a zero-sequence “donut” orwindow-type current transformer installed in the starterin such a way as to permit all three conductors of thethree-phase line to be used as the current-transformerprimary.
Phase currents add to algebraic zero, regardless of mag-nitude, and no secondary current flows except thatinduced by the primary current going to ground. Thissystem gives positive indication of ground current, elimi-nates false tripping and permits instantaneous relaying.
If time coordination with other ground-fault relays isnecessary, time overcurrent relays may be used in thecurrent-transformer arrangement.For certain sized motors where the power system per-mits, ground-fault relays may be used as a less expensivealternative to differential relays. Most phase-to-phasewinding faults detected by differential relays result in asimultaneous phase-to-ground fault, thereby operatingthe ground fault relay. For that reason, ground faultrelays may be used as a less expensive alternative todifferential relays.Another method of detecting ground currents in a three-phase system employs three separate line-current trans-formers, one in each phase, with the secondaries fedthrough a single current relay. In this system, the sec-ondary currents should sum to zero just as they do in theprimary of the “donut” current transformer. And, withno ground current flowing, the three secondary currentsdo add and cancel each other out. Ground current onlywill cause the relay to operate. For currents of large mag-nitude, however, such as motor locked-rotor current, cur-rent-transformer saturation becomes a problem, causingresidual current to flow in the relay coil...resulting infalse tripping. To prevent false tripping with the residualconnection, time-delay relays are necessary to permit rid-ing over the starting period of the motor. This fact makesinstantaneous relays impractical in the residual system.
Instantaneous ground-fault relays may be applied toLimitamp (NEMA Class E2) controllers without limita-tion on available ground current. The fuse and relay-con-
UNDERVOLTAGE PROTECTIONNEMA defines undervoltage protection as a devicewhose principal objective is to prevent automatic restart-ing of equipment.Instantaneous undervoltage protection is inherent to thestandard 3-wire control circuits, since the contactor willdrop out and stay out on loss of voltage.
F
TIME-DELAYTime delay undervoltage protection (TDUV) for aLimitamp controller can be provided to prevent shut-down of a motor on adjustable duration voltage dipsbelow the adjustable dropout voltage. With either time-delay or the standard instantaneous undervoltageprotection, the motor remains disconnected until theoperator restarts the motor.
TDUV-AUTOMATIC RESTARTIn the event of voltage dips of short duration, conven-tional TDUV circuits provide an automatic restart ofLimitamp contactor without operator intervention. (Atime delay of approximately 1.5 seconds is usually provid-ed.) However, in motor applications, automatic restart-ing can cause serious damage to windings and mechani-cal loads connected to the motor due to out-of-phasereclosing. In worst cases this out-of-phase reclosing couldapply up to two times the normal voltage to motor wind-ings. TDUV auto-restart scheme is not recommended forsynchronous, wound-rotor or large horsepower high-speed squirrel-cage motor controllers without additionalcircuitry to delay reclosing after a UV condition.The TDUV automatic restart scheme in LimitampControl permits instantaneous shutdown by connectionof the STOP button into the UV relay circuit. Careshould be taken not to connect a maintained-contactdevice into this circuit.

SYNCHRONOUS-MOTOR CONTROLAND EXCITATION
CR192(iSPM module signals the SFC to apply DC to themotor field, the SFC switches the field discharge resistoroff and causes the SCRs in the rectifier bridge to turnon, resulting in DC being applied to the motor field. Thebridge SCRs are gated “full on” so that they emulate adiode rectifier bridge. The voltage of this DC field supplyis determined by the tap connection of the customizedtransformer that feeds AC power to the rectifier bridge.This transformer has secondary taps arranged so that theDC voltage can be adjusted in 5% increments from 70%to 130% of the transformer nominal secondary voltageby changing connections at the transformer tap.
SYNCHRONOUS MOTOR CONTROLGE Limitamp synchronous-motor controllers are offeredfor both brush-type and brushless synchronous motors.As a standard, both brush-type and brushless synchrnousmotor controllers are equipped with the CR192 pSPMsolid-state field application and protection module. Thismicroprocessor-based module provides basic synchro-nous motor control and protection functions includingsquirrel-cage starting protection, power factor and pull-out running protection, and field application control tomaximize pull-in torque (for brush-type machines only).Digital displays of motor running line current and powerfactor are featured along with a keypad for entering set-point parameters. Available options are field loss protec-tion, exciter voltage check protection, field amps display,exciter volts display, incomplete sequence protection,and power factor regulation (when used with compatibleSCR type variable field exciters).
VARIABLE EXCITATIONAnother exciter offering is the electronic variable fieldcontactor (VFC). The VFC is available in single- or three-phase versions. Three phase VFC exciters are recom-mended for sizes 20 kW and above (125 VDC fields), and25 kW and above (250 VDC fields) . Like the SFC(above) , the VFC controls the switching of the field dis-charge resistor and DC to the field depending on inputsfrom the CR192 pSPM. The difference is that the gatingof the rectifier bridge SCRs can be controlled by varyingan analog voltage at its control input. This allows on-linecontrol of the DC exciter voltage by any of severalmeans:
1) Manual control via a door-mounted potentiometer.2) Automatic control via the field current regulation
module.3) Automatic control via the CR192 pSPM equipped with
power factor regulation.
F
EXCITERS FOR BRUSH TYPE MOTORSFor synchronous motors equipped with slip-rings andbrushes, Limitamp is offered with a variety of excitationoptions. Single-phase solid-state exciters can be integratedin the controller NEMA 1 ventilated enclosure upto 9 kW (exciters must be derated for non-ventilatedenclosures). Larger exciters require auxiliary enclosuresthat can be placed in the common bussed line-up withthe Limitamp controllers. Two basic types of exciters areavailable:
•SFC (fixed excitation with adjustable tappedtransformer)
•VFC (on-line adjustable excitation by manual orautomatic means)
FIXED EXCITATIONThe basic exciter offering is a single-phase, tapped-trans-former, static field contactor (SFC). The SFC is a solid-state switching device consisting of silicon controlledrectifiers (SCRs) in a bridge circuit for rectification ofAC power to DC. Additional SCRs are provided to switchthe field discharge resistor. During starting, the SFCswitches the field discharge resistor on so that theinduced field current from the motor field is passedthrough the discharge resistor. The field discharge resis-tor is also switched on to discharge the field currentwhen DC is removed at motor shutdown and if, duringnormal motor operation, the motor field generates ahigh voltage surge above approximately 600 volts, suchas would occur if the motor “slips” a pole. When themotor has accelerated to near synchronous speed, the
ON-LINE FIELD ADJUSTMENTThe manual potentiometer is normally mounted on thedoor and allows an operator to adjust the motor fieldcurrent while the motor is running. This provides theconvenience over the SFC type exciter of not having toshut down the motor and physically move cables betweenseveral taps on the exciter transformer.
FIELD CURRENT REGULATIONThe field current regulator module also employs a man-ual potentiometer for adjustment of the field current.However, the regulator provides a closed loop control sothat the VFC DC output is automatically adjusted tomaintain the set-point field current as set by the manualpotentiometer. This feature allows the operator to set thefield one time at a desired field current. The field cur-rent will then be regulated to compensate for field resis-tance changes due to field winding heating or systemvoltage fluctuations. The leading reactive power contri-bution of a synchronous motor is related to the level of

field current. If it is desired to maximize the contribu-tion of leading reactive power from the synchronousmotor at all shaft loading conditions, set the field cur-rent as high as possible without exceeding its nameplaterating. Field current regulation is the ideal choice formaximizing the leading reactive power because it allowsthe operator to set the field current very close to ratedand not worry about the current “creeping” higher orlower from the potentiometer setting.
panel, is mounted on top and is connected directly inseries with the synchronous-motor field as a means ofadjusting field current. The resistor is continuously ratedwith taps to adjust field current 10-percent above andbelow rated full-load field current for rated power factorsin approximately 2 -percent steps.
POWER FACTOR REGULATIONPower factor regulation is an excellent choice for appli-cations requiring field forcing, which is applying DCexcitation above its rating for a short time. Many drives,such as chippers, are subject to transient impact over-loads many times the motor rating for short time inter-vals. By forcing the field, the synchronous motor can beenabled to deliver shaft torques above the rating without“pulling-out” of synchronism and shutting down. GEtests on chipper drives have demonstrated that thepower factor regulation option can provide the rapidfield forcing feature to prevent disruptive motor “pull-out.” Power factor regulation operates on the principlethat the motor running power factor is a good predictorof motor pull out. Before a motor pulls out of step (as aresult of high shaft loading from a hard or oversized logentering a chipper) , the power factor dips in the laggingdirection drastically. By setting the regulator such that itboosts excitation as the power factor dips more laggingthan the regulator set point, the motor running powerfactor is held to a “healthy” level and motor “pull-out” isavoided. Power factor regulation also allows the fieldexcitation power to be conserved when the motor is run-ning lighdy loaded or unloaded. This not only allowsenergy conservation but also deeper no-load cooling ofthe motor windings, so the motor runs cooler for a givenlevel of RMS loading. Power factor regulation can helpregulate the power system voltage by minimizing reactivepower swings over a wide range of motor loads.

BRUSHLESS SYNCHRONOUS CONTROLThe CR192 (XSPM is also designed for use with brushlesssynchronous motors. It provides timed field exciterapplication, power factor and pull-out protection andstarting/stall protection.

CONTROL CIRCUITS JOGGINGDrives requiring ‘jogging” (or inching) must have thecontrol circuit arranged for repeatedly closing the linecontactor at short intervals to effect small movements ofthe driven machine. The line contactor is held closedonly as long as theJOG button is held depressed.An anti-kiss circuit is provided with theJOG push button,including a jog relay. The jog relay closes when theJOGbutton is depressed, energizes the line contactor coil,seals itself in around theJOG button and is dropped outonly after the line contactor has closed and wiped in.This makes possible repeated opening and closing of theline contactor, but also assures that the tips wipe closedeach time.
CONTROL POWER TRANSFORMERControl power transformers used in Limitamp startersare single-phase, air-cooled, core-and-coil constructionwith high-voltage windings covered to prevent contami-nation by dust and dirt. Those furnished in standardpanels have a 25-kV Basic Impulse Level (BIL) rating.When specified, 60-kV BIL rated control transformerscan be furnished, but will require special space consider-ation. Two kVA is standard in a basic controller.Transformers above 2 kVA are optional, and above 3 kVAmay require an auxiliary enclosure for mounting.
OMISSION OF CONTROL POWER TRANSFORMERA lineup of starters can use a common control powertransformer or other source of control power. In eithercase, the power source and control circuit must be pro-vided with interlocking relays so the loss of either willshut down all operating motors. Control bus is requiredin all controllers if a common source of control power isused.A single source of control power results in some disad-vantages: (1) Unless each panel is provided with a fusedcontrol switch, troubleshooting must be done with livewires in the panel; (2) a single controller, if relocatedindependent of the lineup, will require modification toadd a control transformer and fuses; and (3) the loss ofcontrol power will cause shutdown of all machines.
CURRENT INTERLOCKINGCurrent-operated relays indicate when the arc is com-pletely extinguished after the line contactor opens.These relays then permit closure of a reversing contac-tor. A short circuit may occur if a reversing contactorcloses after the forward contactor opens but before thearc has been extinguished. This circuit is necessary incontrollers with “plug stop” or where pressing oneinstantaneous contact picks up reversing contactor whilerunning forward. Current interlocking is not normallyused on overhauling loads such as mine hoists, since dur-ing the lowering cycle enough current may not be drawnto operate the interlocking relays.This circuit is not supplied on standard Limitamp revers-ing controllers, as the operator is expected to turn theselector switch to reverse only after pressing the STOPbutton.
F
TIMING RELAYSPneumatic-type timing relays close or open a circuit aftera definite elapsed time on either energization or de-energization.Motor-driven timing relays close or open a circuit withtime delay on either energization or de-energization.They provide a wide range of time, however, and are notaffected by ambient temperatures. Solid-state timingrelays with high accuracy and repeatability can be fur-nished.
POTENTIAL INTERLOCKINGPotential interlocking is used for the same reason as incurrent interlocking. Potential transformers and inter-locking relays are added to prevent closure of one prima-ry contactor before complete interruption of the arcs atthe tips of the other (reverse) contactor. Operation isbased on the principle that by the time the disconnectedmotor’s generated EMF has decayed to the point wherethe interlocking relays have dropped out, the arc in thedisconnected contactor has extinguished, and closingthe reversing contactor is permissible.Potential interlocking is used on hoists and other appli-cations having possible overhauling loads.
INCOMPLETE-SEQUENCE RELAYAn incomplete-sequence relay is used to shut down themotor (squirrel-cage induction or synchronous) onreduced-voltage starting if the control fails to transfer tofull voltage. It protects the starting reactor or autotrans-former from energization longer than rated time. Therelay can be furnished for other sequencing functionsalso.

In totaling reactive power on a bus feedingseveral loads, individual vars for each load can bemeasured by means of individual varmeters on eachmotor and added directly.
AMMETERAn ammeter (panel-type or switchboard-type) is used toindicate either motor amperes or total incomingamperes. It can either be hardwired to the current trans-former of one phase or all three phases can be moni-tored by the use of a selector switch. One current trans-former is required for single-phase reading; two arerequired for open delta three-phase reading; three arerequired in a wye circuit. Three window-type currenttransformers are provided as standard on LimitampControllers.
ELAPSED TIME METERAn elapsed time meter is used to indicate hours ofoperation or shutdown time of a particular motor or drivefor the purpose of production records, maintenancescheduling, or engineering records.
VOLTMETERThe voltmeter (panel-type or switchboard-type) is usedto indicate phase-to-phase potential. One potential trans-former is required if only one phase-to-phase potential ismonitored. Two potential transformers, connected in anopen-delta configuration, are required along with aselector switch to monitor any one of the three phases.Three potential transformers mounted in an auxiliaryenclosure and a selector switch are required to read bothphase-to-phase and phase-to-neutral potentials.
TRANSDUCERSTransducers are used to transmit electrical properties toremote devices, while maintaining a high accuracy whenthe cabling distance or resistance may be high. Thestandard output is 4 - 20 mA DC. Current transducersrequire (1) CT; voltage transducers require (1) PT; wattstransducers require (2) CTs and (2) PTs.
F
TEST BLOCKSCurrent and potential test blocks provide a plug-infeature for portable meters, to obtain readings orrecords without shutting down the machine.POWER FACTOR METER
A power factor meter is used to indicate power factorlead or lag. It is useful in adjusting power factor in syn-chronous motor drives and in determining the powerfactor of a given drive. The addition of a power factormeter requires the addition of potential transformers, orof some other potential source with correct phase andaccuracy. When a synchronous starter is supplied, theCR192 pSPM has a digital power factor meter built intothe device.
WATT-HOUR METERA watt-hour meter is used basically to measure workdone. Specifically, it registers total watt-hours used by themotor or other load on the controller. It is useful inassigning power charges in plant accounting or forrecord keeping of power consumed per unit of manufac-turing. It requires the addition of two potential trans-formers connected in open delta.A demand register indicates maximum demand. It is use-ful in determining peak loads for particular machineswhere demand must be controlled to keep power costs ata minimum.
WATTMETERA wattmeter is used to indicate loading or useful powerbeing delivered to a drive at any instant. The instrumentis typically calibrated in kilowatts. Two potential trans-formers connected in open delta are required for operation.
OPERATION COUNTERThe operation counter is electrically operated from acontrol interlock on the line contactor. It totals thenumber of times the contactor has closed and opened,and thus provides data for the establishment of mainte-nance schedules, a record of the number of batchprocesses initiated over a given period of time, or anyother purpose where the number of line contactorclosures may be significant.

GENERALThese Class1model GFM ground fault protectionsystems are designed to minimize damage or. loss toequipment caused by destructive arcing ground faults.This GFM system is designed for all polyphase applica-tions and is ideally suited for motor control, motor con-trol centers and high-voltage starters. Systems can be wyeor delta, grounded or resistance grounded. When theground fault current exceeds a preselected condition(current only, or current and time settings) , the relaytrips. The relay contacts can be connected in the controlcircuit of a motor starter, to the shunt trip of a circuitbreaker or similar disconnecting or alarm devices. Thesystem has an inverse time characteristic to prevent nui-sance tripping. The relay tripping current value is fieldadjustable over the trip current range of the sensor. Theadjustable trip time delay relay, when specified, is fieldsettable up to 36 cycles.

This diagram shows starter with the isolating switch in the disconnect position and the test power interlock in the test position.To test:Handle must be in the disconnect (OFF) position, and test-normal selector switch (located in the low voltage compart-ment) must be in the TEST position. Purchaser is to connect his test power to the proper terminals and note that the controlcircuit is not grounded when disconnects are open. Be sure to turn the test-normal switch to NORMAL before moving thedisconnect handle to the ON position.CPI — Opens only when CPI release on isolating switch handle is pushed in. Can not be opened when main line contactor is
closed.A — Start and stop push buttons are wired through terminal at “TB” in order that remote START-STOP buttons can be
readily connected into the circuit when required.— At a terminal on "TB”, a loop in the CT secondary circuit wire permits insertion of a hook on ammeter for measuring
line current.— Device furnished by others — mounted remote.— Terminal board point.
