3 HARDWARE 3.1 DESCRIPTION 3 HARDWARE 3.1DESCRIPTION WARNING The MIWII system incorporates electronic components that might be affected by electrostatic discharge currents flowing through certain component terminals. The main source of electrostatic discharges is human body, especially under low humidity conditions, with carpet floors or isolating shoes. If such conditions are present special care should be taken while manipulating MIWII modules.
3.1 DESCRIPTION 3 HARDWARE 3.1.1 MOUNTING The unit is designed for semi-flush mounting. The relay is secured to the panel with the 4 M6 screws provided with the unit. This allows the user access to the front keypad, display and communication port. The wiring is at the rear of the unit. The drilling dimensions are shown on the drilling dimension diagram.
3 HARDWARE 3.1 DESCRIPTION 3.1.2 REAR DESCRIPTION The relay is wired through the terminal blocks located at the rear of the unit. In this terminal board, current terminals are shorted two-by-two when the transformer module is extracted, so that the CT secondary never remains open. Figure 3–3: REAR VIEW The magnetic module with the CTs is already connected to a female connector screwed to the case that incorporates shorting bars in the current inputs, so that it can be extracted without the need to short-circuit the current externally.
3.2 WIRING 3 HARDWARE 3.2.2 CONTROL POWER CAUTION: CONTROL POWER SUPPLIED TO THE RELAY MUST MATCH THE RATED VOLTAGE OF THE RELAY. IF THE VOLTAGE IS APPLIED TO THE WRONG TERMINALS, DAMAGE MAY OCCUR. Table 3–1: CONTROL POWER VOLTAGE RANGE RANGE RATED VOLTAGE OPERATION RANGE...
3 HARDWARE 3.2 WIRING 3.2.3 AC CURRENT TRANSFORMER INPUTS Each AC current input has an isolating transformer and an automatic mechanism that shorts the input when the module is withdrawn from the chassis. There are no internal ground connections on the current inputs. Current transformers with 1 A or 5 A rated secondary current may be used.
3.2 WIRING 3 HARDWARE 3.2.4 CONTACT INPUTS / OUTPUTS Figure 3–7: CONTACT INPUTS CONNECTIONS Wet contacts must be connected to the inputs of the relay. A wet contact has one side connected to the positive terminal of an external DC power supply. The other side of this contact is connected to the required contact input terminal (A8 or A9).
3 HARDWARE 3.2 WIRING 3.2.5 OUTPUT CONTACTS CONFIGURATION All output relays are form C relays. Only one of the two states of the form C relay is connected to the MIWII output terminal. For each output relay it is possible to select which state is preferred to have at the MIWII terminals, NC (normally closed) or NO (normally open).
3.2 WIRING 3 HARDWARE 3.2.6 OUTPUTS ISOLATION MII relays provide one trip contact, one alarm contact and four configurable contacts (option 1 and 2) sharing one common. An internal jumper, called Jx jumper, has been provided to allow splitting the four configurable outputs into two isolated groups.
Page 55
3 HARDWARE 3.2 WIRING Each output has a different configuration, and it is able to operate independently to the others. If Jx jumper is removed, the output contact configuration change as shown in the following figure: After removing the Jx Jumper, the outputs are divided in two groups: Independent and isolated. Group1: Terminals B8-B7: Provide one output contact combining OUT1 and OUT2 Group 2:...

3.2 WIRING 3 HARDWARE a) JX REMOVED AND ONE OF THE TWO INTERNAL CONTACTS SET AS NORMALLY CLOSED: t is possible to change by hardware the contact configuration from normally open to normally closed (see the first point of this document). b) OUT1 NORMALLY CLOSED AND OUT2 NORMALLY OPEN: The hardware configuration corresponds to OUT1 NC and OUT2 NO.
3 HARDWARE 3.2 WIRING 3.2.7 RS232 FRONT COMMUNICATIONS PORT A 9-pin RS232C serial port is located on the front of the relay for programming with a portable (personal) computer. All that is required to use this interface is a personal computer running the ENERVISTA MII SETUP software. Next figure shows the communications cable configuration.
“A” and “B”, although many devices use terminals named “+” and “-“. As a general rule, terminals “A” should be connected to terminals “-“, and terminals “B” to “+”. There are exceptions to this rule, such as the GE ALPS and DDS family of relays.
The ENERVISTA MII SETUP software package uses only ModBus protocols, and is designed to communicate with a single relay at a time. GE Multilin offers different communication software packages, such as GE-POWER and enerVista, which can be used to communicate simultaneously with several relays.
4.1 ENERVISTA MII SETUP SOFTWARE 4 COMMUNICATIONS 4.1.2 STARTING COMMUNICATION Before the physical connection to the relay, it is important that the user reviews the safety instructions detailed in section 1.

APPENDIX A A.1 GENERAL PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION APPENDIX A HARMONIC FILTERINGA.1GENERAL PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION The present document intends to give an overview on how the relay deals with analog signals, in order to help determine whether the relay is appropriate for certain applications. MIWII relays, as the rest of our digital relays, are based on the following functional diagram: Figure A–1: FUNCTIONAL DIAGRAM Each of these blocks has its own functionality inside the general operation of the unit, as follows:...
A.2 DIGITAL FILTER APPENDIX A A.2DIGITAL FILTER The first operation performed by the CPU with the voltage and/or current signal samples is the DFT. The Discrete Fourier Transformation consists in decomposing a signal into a series of sinusoidal signals with frequencies that are multiples of the fundamental frequency.
Page 173
APPENDIX A A.2 DIGITAL FILTER Figure A–4: the measurements can experience small variations for frequencies that are not the fundamental and its harmonics, as the measure varies for these frequencies. As an example, we can see in the next figure how a relay measure varies when it is set to 50 Hz, and it is being applied 60 Hz.
A.3 MEASURE AT FREQUENCIES BELOW THE RATED FREQUENCY (FREQUENCY TRACKING) APPENDIX A A.3MEASURE AT FREQUENCIES BELOW THE RATED FREQUENCY (FREQUENCY TRACKING) As already mentioned, the digital filter is related to the fundamental frequency, so higher multiple frequency values are annulled During the start-up of generators, the voltage frequency in terminals and currents that can appear in the event of a fault, will depend on the machine speed.
APPENDIX B B.1 MODBUS FORMAT APPENDIX B MODBUSB.1MODBUS FORMAT The ModBus Format (Intel/Motorola) setting, in General Settings, provides with different ways to access and/or modify the relay information Differences between selecting the Intel or Motorola setting are explained in the following table: INTEL MOTOROLA ModBus Map Addressing...
