Application
The relay type NM20 can be used for protection of large size motors in MV systems with any grounded systems
(solidly grounded, ungrounded or Petersen coil and/or resistance grounded) on feeders of any length.
Construction
According to the hardware congurations, the NM20 protection
relay can be shipped in various case styles depending on the
required mounting options (ush, projecting mounting, rack or
with separate operator panel).
Binary inputs
Two binary inputs are available with programmable active state
(active-ON/active-OFF) and programmable timer (active to OFF/
ON or ON/OFF transitions).
Several presettable functions can be associated to each input.
Modular design
In order to extend I/O capability, the NM20 hardware can be cus-
tomized through external auxiliary modules:
MRI - Output relays and LEDs
MID16 - Binary inputs
MCI - 4...20 mA converter Communication
MPT - Pt100 probe inputs. Multiple communication interfaces are implemented:
One RS232 local communication front-end interface for com-
munication with ThySetter setup software
Two back-end interfaces for communication with remote mon-
itoring and control systems by:
- RS485 port using ModBus RTU, IEC 60870-5-103 or DNP3
protocol.
- Ethernet port (RJ45 or optical ber) using ModBus/TCP or
IEC61850 protocol.
Output relays
Six output relays are available (two changeover, three make and
one break contacts); each relay may be individually programmed
as normal state (normally energized, de-energized or pulse) and Native integration with IEC61850
reset mode (manual or automatic).
A programmable timer is provided for each relay (minimum
pulse width). The user may program the function of each relay
according to a matrix (tripping matrix) structure.

virtual input and output with messages on Ethernet network.
To guarantee maximum fail-safety, the relay performs a run time
monitoring for pilot wire continuity and pilot wire shorting. Ex-
actly the output blocking circuit periodically produces a pulse,
with small width in order to be ignored as an effective blocking
signal by the input blocking circuit of the upstream protection,
but suitable to prove continuity of the pilot wire.
Furthermore a permanent activation (or better, with a duration
longer than a preset time) of the blocking signal is identied, as
a warning for a possible short circuit in the pilot wire or in the
output circuit of the downstream protection.
Cold Load Pickup (CLP)
Cold load pickup element prevents unwanted tripping in case of
temporary overcurrents produced when a feeder is being con-
nected after an extended outage (e.g. motor starting).
Two different operating modes are provided:
Each protective element can be blocked for a setting time.
Each threshold can be increased for a setting time.
