FRONT-PANEL ANNUNCIATION, INDICATION, AND PROGRAMMING
2.1
GENERAL (See Figure 1)
FPU-16 modes are listed on the front panel. Modes 0 to 4 are used to enter tripand-alarm set points and to annunciate trips and alarms. Mode 5 is used to
select options. Modes 6, 7, and 8 are used to enter CT-primary ratings and
rated current. Modes 9 to F are used to display metered values and
values-at-trip.
2.2
LIQUID-CRYSTAL DISPLAY
The left digit of the four-digit liquid-crystal display uses a hexadecimal format
(0 to F) to indicate the mode displayed. The remaining digits (designated from
left to right as value digits 1, 2, and 3) display set-point values, meter readings,
and trip-and-alarm codes.
For value digits greater than 999, the last value digit is replaced by E to indicate
an extended range. To obtain the actual value, multiply the reading by 100. For
example, 30E is read as 3000.
2.3
KEYPAD
Four keypad switches provide the operator interface to the FPU-16.
Tactile-feedback switches are used to provide positive indication that switch
contact has been made:
RAMP — This switch is used to adjust values in Modes 0 to 8. Under normal
operation this switch is inoperative. To make the RAMP switch
operative, the program-change lockout must be defeated by
connecting FPU-16 terminals 20 and 21. To change a set point,
ENTER must be pressed within three seconds after RAMP is
released. If ENTER is not pressed within three seconds, the display
will return to its pre-adjusted value. One arrow up and two arrows
down indicate that the RAMP switch is bidirectional. To ramp up:
press and hold. To reverse: release, press again within one second
and hold.
MODE — This switch is used to select the mode displayed. Bidirectional
operation is the same as for RAMP.
RESET— This switch is used to reset trips and alarms and it is used with
ENTER to reset latched alarms in modes 0 to 4, to do an emergency
thermal reset in Mode d, and to reset the operation counter in Mode
F. It is also used to display current in percent of rated current (Modes
A, b, and C) and time-to-reset (Mode d).

Rev. 1
ENTER — This switch is used to enter values in Modes 0 to 8, and to access a
second level in modes 0 to 5 and 8 to F. Values can be entered only
when the program-change lockout is defeated.
This prevents
unauthorized or unintentional program changes during normal
operation. When the program-change lockout is defeated, the value
displayed in Modes 0 to 8 will be entered if ENTER is pressed within
three seconds after RAMP is released.
In Modes 0 to 5, the second-level set point will be displayed while
ENTER is pressed. In Modes 9 to E, the value immediately prior to
the most recent trip will be displayed while ENTER is pressed. If the
program-change lockout is defeated, the second level in Modes 0 to 5
will remain displayed for three seconds after ENTER is released to
allow RAMP to be pressed to initiate a second-level program change.
2.4
LED INDICATORS
The red TRIP/ALARM LED is on if a trip or alarm has occurred. It flashes when
the program-change lockout is defeated (program enable active); however, ON
has priority over FLASH. The green PROCESSOR LED is on when the
processor is functional.
2.5
PROGRAMMING
The FPU-16 has individual trip-and-alarm control relays and all trip-and-alarm
set points can be individually adjusted or deleted. At the top of each set-point
range, the delete code "ddd" is displayed. If "ddd" is entered, the set point is
deleted and the associated protection is disabled.
To enable program changes, the program-change lockout must be defeated by
connecting FPU-16 terminals 20 and 21. Remove this connection when
programming is completed. This will prevent unauthorized or unintentional
program changes.
To program trip set points in Modes 0 to 4 and the first level in Modes 5 to 8:
— Press MODE to select the mode,
— press RAMP to adjust, and within three seconds of release,
— press ENTER.

To program alarm set points in Modes 0 to 4 and the second level in Mode 5:
— Press MODE to select the mode,
— press ENTER, and within three seconds of release,
— press RAMP to adjust, and within three seconds of release,
— press ENTER.
All programmed values and values-at-trip are stored in a nonvolatile memory
that retains its data indefinitely—even if supply voltage is lost. It is not
necessary to reprogram the unit when supply voltage is restored.
2.6
TRIPS AND ALARMS
When
—
—
—
—
a trip occurs:
The trip relay operates,
the red TRIP/ALARM LED comes ON,
the display automatically switches to the mode that initiated the trip, and
the mode digit is followed by a trip code.
With the exception of autoreset which can be enabled for Mode 0, all trips must
be individually reset.
When
—
—
—
—
an alarm occurs:
The alarm relay operates,
the red TRIP/ALARM LED comes ON, and
the display does not switch to the mode that initiated the alarm; however,
an alarm code is displayed if the mode that initiated the alarm is selected.
Unless latching alarms are selected in Mode 5, alarms automatically reset when
conditions return to normal. See Section 3.7.2 and Table 2.
2.7
DEFAULT VALUES
A set of default values are preprogrammed at the factory. Default values are
listed in their respective mode descriptions in Section 3.
To reload factory default values:
— Remove the supply voltage,
— connect FPU-16 terminals 20 and 21 to enable program changes, and
— with RESET pressed, apply the supply voltage.

MODE DESCRIPTIONS
3.1
GENERAL
Page 7
Rev. 1
This section contains a description of each mode. It explains operational
characteristics, describes special functions, and lists set-point ranges, display
codes, and default values.
3.2
MODE 0 — I2t LIMIT
This mode is used to enter long-time overcurrent set points and to annunciate
long-time overcurrent alarms and trips.
2
Thermal protection provided by the FPU-16 is based upon a constant I t
characteristic that is defined by the Mode-0 set point and the rated current (In)
programmed in Mode 8. The Mode-0 set point is the time, in seconds, required
for the FPU-16 to trip at 6 x In. The Mode-0 set point is determined by equating
2
I t at 6 x In to the allowable thermal rating. For example, if the allowable thermal
2
rating is 2 x In for 3 minutes, the I t limit is:
62 x t = 22 x 180, and
t = 20 seconds—this is the Mode-0 set point.
One of the 45 available protection curves is shown in Figure 2. The largest of
2
2
the three phase currents is used for the I t thermal model and the 0%-I t curve is
2
the maximum-time-to-trip curve for current above In. Current above In causes I t
2
to tend toward a limit above 100%, and current below In causes I t to tend toward
a limit that is less than 100% as shown in the inset graph in Figure 2. In all
2
cases, I t responds exponentially toward its final value with a time constant
2
derived from the Mode-0 set point so that I t tracks used thermal capacity.
Used thermal capacity determines the time-to-trip for excursions above In. For
the Class-20 example shown in Figure 2, sustained operation at 0.87 x In will
ultimately result in a used thermal capacity of 75% and the time to trip for
2
current above In will be reduced as shown by the 75%- I t curve.
The FPU-16 trips in Mode 0 when I2t reaches 100%. A Mode-0 trip cannot be
2
reset until I t has decreased to 30% unless Mode 5 has been programmed to
allow an immediate reset. See Section 3.7.3 and Table 2. If Mode 5 has not
2
been programmed to allow an immediate reset, the time required for I t to
2
decrease to 30% is a function of the derived time constant. Percent I t and
minutes-to-reset are displayed in Mode d. The FPU-16 can be programmed in
2
Mode 5 to automatically reset when I t decreases to 30%. See Section 3.7.1 and
Table 2.

All programmed values and values-at-trip are stored in nonvolatile memory.
When data are retrieved from this memory, error-detection techniques check for
corrupted data. If data are suspect, the unit will trip, “0bAd” will be displayed,
and default values will be loaded. If “0bAd” is displayed, defeat the programchange lockout, reprogram the unit, and reset Mode 0.

MODE 4 — EARTH FAULT
This mode is used to enter earth-fault set points and to annunciate earth-fault
alarms and trips. Set points are expressed in percent of the earth-fault-CTprimary rating entered in Mode 6.
Optional CT’s (EFCT-1 or EFCT-2) with 5-A-primary ratings are available for
sensitive earth-fault detection in applications where earth-fault current is less
than 100 A and surge current is less than 2.5 kA. If surge current is greater
than 1 kA but less than 2.5 kA, a flux conditioner should be used to prevent
nuisance tripping. If earth-fault current is greater than 100 A, surge current is
greater than 2.5 kA, or if a trip level greater than 5 A is required, use a 5-A- or
1-A-secondary earth-fault CT that will not saturate at the prospective currents.
Earth-fault current can be derived from the phase currents by using the ICT-2
residual connection. See Section 4.5.2. When this connection is used, the
primary rating of the earth-fault CT is the same as the phase CT's. Due to CT
errors, trip set points should be greater than 10% with the residual connection.
Earth-fault detection in a two-CT configuration requires an earth-fault CT. Do
not use a residual-type connection with two phase-CT's because an earth fault
in the derived phase will not be detected.
Four earth-fault-trip times are available. See Section 3.7.5 and Table 2.

is selectable as shown in Table 3. When CURRENT is selected, the maximum
of the three phase currents is used.
Current (Mode A, b, or C) ...................... 0 to 1.25 In
I2t (Mode d) ........................................... 0 to 100%
Earth Leakage (Mode E)........................ 0 to 1 x Ie
Default .................................................. Current
3.7.8 RELAY OPERATING MODE
Each output-relay driver can be independently operated in a fail-safe or non-failsafe mode. In the fail-safe mode, the output relays are energized when supply
voltage is on and the unit is not in a trip-or-alarm condition. The output relays
are de-energized if supply voltage is off or if a trip-or-alarm condition occurs.
FPU-16 labelling shows the relays de-energized. In the non-fail-safe mode, the
output relays are energized only during a trip-or-alarm condition.
Default Values:
Trip Relay ................................... Fail Safe
Alarm Relay ................................ Fail Safe
3.8
MODE 6 — EARTH-FAULT-CT-PRIMARY RATING (Ie)
This mode is used to enter the earth-fault-CT-primary rating. All four digits are
displayed when the earth-fault-CT-primary rating is being adjusted. When the
new rating is entered, the display returns to the three-value-digit format and the
extended-range notation applies for values above 999 A. See Section 2.2.
The primary rating for the EFCT-1 and EFCT-2 is 5 A. If a 5-A- or 1-A-secondary
earth-fault CT is used, the primary rating of the earth-fault CT must be entered.
If the residual connection is used, enter the primary rating of the phase CT’s in
both Modes 6 and 7.

MODE 7 — PHASE-CT-PRIMARY RATING (Ip)
This mode is used to enter the phase-CT-primary rating. All four digits are
displayed when the phase-CT primary rating is adjusted. When a new rating is
entered, the display returns to the three-value-digit format and the extendedrange notation applies for values above 999 A. See Section 2.2.
If Ip is greater than 1200 A or if In is greater than 800 A, enter 0.1 x Ip and multiply
readings in Modes A, b, and C by 10.
Phase CT’s should be selected so that rated current is approximately 70% of the
primary rating. The rated-current programming range in Mode 8 is 45% to 93%
of the phase-CT-primary rating. Mode 7 must be programmed before Mode 8
because Mode 8 is set to the bottom of the rated-current range when the phaseCT-primary rating is entered.
CT-Primary-Rating Range ..................... 20 A to 1200 A in 5-A increments
Default Value ........................................ 150 A
3.10
MODE 8 — RATED CURRENT (In)
This mode is used to enter rated current (In) and to indicate the firmware revision
level. Rated-current range is a function of the phase-CT-primary rating entered
in Mode 7. It is necessary to enter Ip in Mode 7 before In is entered in Mode 8
because Mode 8 is set to the minimum value of the In range when Ip is entered.
The firmware revision level is displayed by pressing ENTER.
If Ip is greater than 1200 A or if In is greater than 800 A, enter 0.1 x In and multiply
readings in Modes A, b, and C by 10.

Rev. 0
A basic feeder-protection system consists of a FPU-16 feeder protection unit, an
ICT-2 interface CT, and three customer-supplied phase CT's. An earth-fault CT
is usually required for earth-fault detection.
4.2
COMPONENT MOUNTING
4.2.1 PANEL-MOUNT CONFIGURATION
Outline dimensions and mounting details for the panel-mount FPU-16 are
shown in Figure 3. The FPU-16 mounts in a 92-mm (3.62-in) square cutout (1/4
DIN) and is secured to the panel by the panel-mount clamp. To mount the
FPU-16, insert it through the panel cutout and slip the panel-mount clamp over
the FPU-16 body. Slide the clamp forward until the latch tabs snap into the
mating holes. Lock the unit in place by tightening the four clamp screws against
the mounting panel.
- - - CAUTION - - OVER TIGHTENING THE CLAMP SCREWS WILL DEFORM THE CLAMP AND
CAUSE THE LATCH TABS TO RELEASE.
4.2.2 SURFACE-MOUNT CONFIGURATION
Outline dimensions and mounting details for the surface-mount FPU-16 are
shown in Figure 4. Mount the FPU-16 using M4 (No. 8) screws and externaltooth lockwashers. Surface-mount FPU-16's have panel-mount-clamp latch
holes and are supplied with panel-mount clamps and hole plugs. This allows
surface-mount units to be panel mounted as described in Section 4.2.1;
however, 100-mm (3.94-in) mounting centres cannot be maintained. If the unit
is surface mounted, insert hole plugs in the latch holes.
4.2.3 ICT-2 INTERFACE CT
Outline dimensions and mounting details for the ICT-2 interface CT are shown in
Figure 5. Locate the ICT-2 near the phase CT's.
4.2.4 EFCT-1 AND EFCT-2 EARTH-FAULT CT’S
Outline dimensions and mounting details for the EFCT-1 and EFCT-2 earth-fault
CT’s are shown in Figures 6 and 7.

SHIELDED CABLES
Feeder protection equipment must operate in electrically noisy environments.
Use shielded, twisted cables for all low-level signals to minimize electrostatic
and electromagnetic coupling. The shield must enclose the signal conductors
as completely as possible and the shield must have only one connection to
ground.
Input-cable shields from the ICT-2, the operation-counter switch, and the remote
program-enable switch must be grounded at the FPU-16 end only. Analog- and
communications-output cables should be grounded at the receiver end only.
Terminate foil-shielded input cables as shown in Figure 8:
1.
Strip 150 mm (6") of outer jacket from the cable.
2.
Peel and strip the foil shield from the drain and insulated wires.
3.
Trim the insulated wires to 50 mm (2"), and strip 6 mm (1/4") of insulation
from each wire. Leave the drain wire full length.
4.
Connect the insulated wires to the terminal block.
5.
Group the drain wires from all shielded input cables and twist them
together. Trim the drain wires to length and attach the crimp-type ground
lug provided. For panel-mount units, fasten the lug with the shield screw.
For surface-mount units, install the lug between the screw head and the
lockwasher on one of the FPU-16 mounting screws.
6.
Repeat steps 1 and 2 at the other end of the cable. Cut off the drain wire
and use heat-shrink sleeving or tape to insulate the shield from ground.
Terminate output cables in the same manner. Ground the drain wires at the
receiver ends only.
4.4
FPU-16 CONNECTIONS
All connections to the FPU-16 are made through two plug-in, wire-clamping
terminal blocks. Each terminal will accept one No. 14 AWG conductor. The
supply-voltage terminal block has a keying pin blocking terminal 9 so that
supply voltage cannot be accidentally applied to the signal terminals. See
Figure 9 for a typical connection diagram.

4.4.2 POWER SUPPLY
The FPU-16 power supply is protected by a time-delay fuse, F3, which is
externally accessible only on units with SW, D1, D2, and D4 power supplies.
SW units are supplied with fuses for 120-Vac operation. D1, D2, and D4 units
are fused for 12, 24, and 48 Vdc operation respectively. All other units are
internally fused for the supply indicated on the FPU-16 nameplate. See Section
6 for recommended F3 fuses.
Derive supply voltage from the line side of the breaker or from an independent
source. Connect supply voltage to terminals 1 and 3 (L1 and L2) as shown in
Figure 9. In 120-Vac systems, L2 is usually designated as the neutral
conductor. Direct-current power supplies use L1 for the positive terminal and L2
for the negative terminal. Ground terminal 8.
4.4.3 TRIP-RELAY CONTACTS
A set of Form C relay contacts are provided for use in a control circuit. These
contacts are designated TRIP and are available at terminals 5, 6, and 7. The trip
contacts are rated 8 A resistive at 250 Vac and are protected by an 8-A fuse, F1.
The trip relay is shown de-energized.
4.4.4 ALARM-RELAY CONTACTS
A set of Form C relay contacts are provided for use in an indication or
supervisory-control circuit. These contacts are designated ALARM and are
available at terminals 10, 11, and 12. The alarm contacts are rated 8 A resistive
at 250 Vac and are protected by an 8-A fuse, F2. The alarm relay is shown
de-energized.

4.4.5 OPERATION COUNT INPUT
Contact closures can be counted by connecting the contact between terminals
17 and 19. Shielded cable is recommended for cable lengths greater than 1 m
(3 ft). If shielded cable is used, ground the shield at the FPU-16 only.
4.4.6 PROGRAM-CHANGE LOCKOUT
As explained in Sections 2.3 and 2.5, program-change lockout prevents
unauthorized or unintentional changes. It is recommended that a keylock switch
be connected to FPU-16 terminals 20 and 21 to allow programming. If the
switch is mounted more than 1 m (3 ft) from the FPU-16, use shielded cable and
ground the shield at the FPU-16 end only.
4.4.7 ANALOG OUTPUT
An isolated analog output is available at terminals 23 and 24. Terminal 23 is
negative. Use shielded cable and ground the cable shield at the receiver.
4.4.8 COMMUNICATIONS INTERFACE
The optional RS-485 communications interface replaces the analog output at
terminals 23 and 24. See communications interface manuals.
4.5
ICT-2 CONNECTIONS
The FPU-16 uses an ICT-2 interface CT to simplify wiring and to minimize CT
burden. The ICT-2 contains four signal-conditioning interface transformers
which are interconnected as shown in Figure 10. These transformers isolate the
FPU-16 from the phase and earth-fault CT's. Also, they eliminate the need for
CT shorting contacts when the FPU-16 is disconnected. Phase-CT and earthfault-CT secondaries can be simultaneously grounded through terminal 22 and
a jumper to terminal 20. For in-line applications, the CT secondaries can be
isolated by removing shorting screws A, B, and C through holes in the bottom of
the ICT-2. See Figure 5.
4.5.1 STANDARD CONNECTION
Standard connections with three, phase CT's and an earth-fault CT are shown in
Figure 11. Dotted lines indicate 1-A-CT connections. Use shielded cable for
EFCT-1 or EFCT-2 connections. Ensure that only current-carrying phase
conductors pass through the earth-fault CT window and that ground conductors
do not. For applications where the CT secondaries must be grounded at
another location, remove shorting screws A, B, and C.

4.5.2 RESIDUAL EARTH-FAULT CONNECTION
The residual earth-fault connection is shown in Figure 12a. Dotted lines indicate
1-A-CT connections. Use identical phase CT's for this connection.
4.5.3 TWO-CT CONNECTIONS
The two-CT connections are shown in Figures 12b and 12c. Dotted lines
indicate 1-A-CT connections. Two-CT connections are not recommended and
are used only in retrofit applications where the third phase CT is not available.
4.6
CABLE RESTRAINT
All conductors should be restrained within 100 mm (4") of the terminal blocks as
shown in Figure 13. Three sizes of adjustable "P" clips are provided for this
purpose. For surface-mount units, restrain the conductors by fastening the "P"
clips to the mounting surface. For panel-mount units, secure the "P" clips to the
FPU-16 rear panel. Secure cables to the ICT-2 using the cable-tie eyelets and
the cable ties provided.

THEORY OF OPERATION
5.1
GENERAL (See Figure 14)
Page 35
Rev. 1
A basic FPU-16 consists of a display module, a power-supply module, a
processor module, and an analog module. The display module is a
"motherboard" for the other modules.
5.2
DISPLAY MODULE
The display module has two functions. It is the operator interface and it provides
the main bus network for the system. The display module contains the LCD,
LCD driver, LED indicators, and bus connectors. The power-supply, processor,
analog, and option modules plug into the bus connectors. A sealed-membraneswitch keypad containing four switches and an ESD shield also connect to the
bus. A direct-drive LCD allows operation to -40°C.
5.3
POWER-SUPPLY MODULE
A transformer-isolated power supply provides 5, 12, and 20 Vdc for the other
modules. The transformer primary can be connected for 120- or 240-Vac
operation. A dc-to-dc converter is used for 120/240 Vac/dc operation or for 12-,
24-, or 48-Vdc operation. The power-supply module also contains the trip-andalarm relays.
5.4
PROCESSOR MODULE
The processor module contains the CMOS 6805 microprocessor, EPROM
memory, nonvolatile EEPROM memory, and watchdog circuit.
The EEPROM memory provides 64, 8-bit memory locations to store programmed
values and values-at-trip. When the supply voltage drops below its minimum
rated value, a power-fail circuit generates an interrupt and data are written into
the EEPROM memory. Hysteresis in the power-fail circuit ensures that the
FPU-16 will not attempt to operate unless the supply voltage is within
specifications.
The watchdog connected to the CPU reset line will reset the CPU if a watchdog
pulse has not been detected for 0.25 second. The watchdog prevents changes
to the EEPROM contents until the CPU is reset. If the CPU does not reset, the
trip-and-alarm relays are de-energized and the green PROCESSOR LED is
turned off.

Rev. 0
ANALOG MODULE
The analog module contains input circuits for phase current, operation counter,
and earth-leakage current. It also contains an eight-channel, multiplexed, tenbit, A/D converter and an isolated analog-output circuit. All inputs and outputs
have MOV protection against electrical transients.
Serial data are transferred to the isolated analog-output circuit through a dualchannel optical isolator. The analog signal is scaled and buffered to provide the
required current or voltage output.
5.6
OPTION MODULES
A 50-pin bus connector on the display module accepts a backlighting, remote
input, or RS-485 communications interface module.
5.7
FIRMWARE
The FPU-16 has a two-cycle sampling interval followed by a one-cycle
calculation interval.
In each sampling interval, the multiplexed A/D converter obtains 200 samples of
the earth-fault and phase-current signals. The multiplexer sequences these four
signals so that each measurement is a digital integration of 50 samples
uniformly spaced throughout the sampling interval.
