This section describes fail-safe versus non-fail-safe tripping, describes voltage
connections, and provides the AC and DC wiring diagrams for the following
applications:
• Across the line starting
• Star-delta starting
• Two-speed motor
Fail-Safe/Non-Fail-Safe Tripping
The Trip relay can be configured for Fail-Safe or Non-Fail-Safe operation by way
of the Relay Behavior settings group discussed in Output Relay Behavior on
page 92. The Trip relay output is a Form C contact consisting of a common
terminal, a normally open (N.O.) terminal and a normally closed (N.C.)
terminal. The terminals require different contact designations based on whether
the Trip relay is configured for Fail-Safe or Non-Fail-Safe operation.
The proper contact designations for Fail-Safe and Non-Fail-Safe configurations
are identified in Figure 6. Be certain to apply the appropriate marking strip to the
terminal plug corresponding to the configuration of the relay's trip output.
The 825-P provides fail-safe and non-fail-safe trip modes (setting selectable) for
the Trip and Aux (auxiliary) contacts. The following occurs in fail-safe mode:
• The Trip relay coil is energized continuously.
• When the 825-P generates a trip signal, the Trip relay coil is de-energized.
• The Trip relay coil is also de-energized if the 825-P input power is removed
or if the 825-P fails (self-test status is FAIL).
