  • Page 26: Section D: Operation Of The Wiautolink

    The wiAutoLink is not a fuse tripping device, it will operate to isolate a permanent fault on no load condition. The wiAutoLink fits into a standard fuse cutout and it directly replaces an existing fuse base.

  • Page 27: Operating Under Permanent Fault Conditions

    The wiAutoLink will pick up, measure zero current and count, reaching its trip count setting. The wiAutoLink will trip on the last open cycle of the recloser, isolating the permanent fault in its branch and allowing the recloser to close prior to going to lockout and maintain power to the unaffected branches.

  • Page 28: Operating Under Permanent Fault Conditions With Trip Three Count Setting Recloser

    Due to the latest technological improvements recently introduced to reclosers, the time indicated as T2 is the time the recloser takes to open after the fault detected. The wiAutoLink, by means of the spectral analysis in the second harmonic, only needs one cycle to identify a current as a fault current, isolating it from symmetric and asymmetric inrush currents.
  • Page 29 “Dead line condition” 3. If the upstream recloser or breaker closes and further fault detected, could be considered a permanent fault condition and wiAutoLink process a Fault condition again waiting an opening ”Device returned to normal condition” of the upstream recloser or breaker.

  • Page 30: Minimum Time Required For Power Up The Wiautolink

    (wiAutoLink is fully charged). The wiAutoLink is able to detect a fault on the line with a period as small as one cycle. So the recloser can be set to start the tripping command as long as it enables to flow through the sectionalizer one sinusoidal cycle in order to correctly measure the fault using its detection algorithm.

    LED feature for wiAutoLink The wiAutoLink has the added feature of indicating the full operational status of the device once it is fully charged by blinking once the LED in the transformer housing. The blinking LED will happen within 90 seconds of closing the medium voltage line.
