WHERE TO USE

Use to protect dc shunt or compoundwound motors against loss of field excitation. The coil of this GR relay is connected in series with the motor field. When excitation is lost, the relay drops out and opens the motor line contactor.

Select relay so that continuous rating will not be exceeded by the rated field current and the relay calibration range permits pick-up to be set below minimum field current. Relay will not protect against overspeed due to weak field unless the field current decreases below the relay dropout setting.
