The supervision relay type TCS is intended for a continuous supervision of circuit breaker trip circuit and gives an alarm for loss of auxiliary supply, faults on the trip coil or its wires independent of the breaker position, faults on the breaker auxiliary contacts and faults in the supervision relay. The trip circuit supervision is a crucial requirements as its failure can cause disconnect of possible network fault and eventually have to be cleared by another upstream protection.
In normal condition, the indicator LE D glows green and output relays are in picked-up condition. In the event of a fault, the supervision relay operates (drops-off)after a delay of 0.6 sec and the indicator LED turns red.
