Hey.
With regard to motor protection there are a number of different relays that have different jobs.
Function 49 is overload protection
Function 51 is locked rotor protection.
There are lots of others - 50 = phase fault protection
50N = earth fault protection
50 + 51N = Time overcurrent with thermal in built.
You can also get harmonic protection etc etc
Hope this helps

Re: 51 & 49 function relay
my understanding 51 using for overcurrent protection, but the reason of overcurrent is overload, 49 is thermal relay and the reason is overload too. So, can I use one of them for overload protection? when do I use both ?
thank youLast edited by Tran_Lap; 13-01-2009 at 04:18 AM.
