Faults/Events
There are three types of Faults/Events that may occur and be recorded in the event log of an
MBT-4000, BDC-4000, or BUC-4000:
• Summary Faults
• Configurable Summary Faults
• Informational Events.
Each of these are described in further detail in the
next subsections; Tables B1 through B6 list
possible Fault/Event messages where applicable.
An example of a faulted system is shown in
Figure B-2; here, Unit 2 has faulted.
Figure B-2. Faulted System Example
B.2.1 Summary Faults
Summary Faults indicate improper operation. When a Summary Fault condition occurs, the
Summary Fault Relay will be de-energized. If a Summary Fault occurs on a converter, it will
mute. If a Summary Fault occurs on the base unit, the applicable converters (one or both) will be
muted according to the specific error. If a Summary Fault occurs on the online unit of a redundant
pair, the offline unit will detect the fault and assume online state. In all cases, a corresponding
event message will be added to the event log.
