EFL PROTECTION RELAY USER MANUAL MAG-178 Version 5 – MARCH/2020 Uncontrolled Copy - Refer to Ampcontrol Website for Latest Version Page 8 of 23 APPROVED FOR EXTERNAL DISTRIBUTION – PROPERTY OF AMPCONTROL PTY LTD – NOT TO BE REPRODUCED IN PART 3 PRODUCT OVERVIEW 3.1 Product Description The Ampcontrol EFL Protection Relay provides earth fault lockout (EFLO) and frozen contactor (FC) protection that is compliant to AS/NZS 2081:2011 sections 7 & 9. While the outlet’s main contactor is open, the EFL will continually monitor the resistance of the phase conductors to earth, on the load side of the contactor. If this resistance falls below an acceptable level, then the EFL will initiate an EFLO trip, preventing the outlet from being started. The EFL will also monitor the state of the outlet’s main contactor. If voltage appears on the line when the contactor is open, a Frozen Contactor electrical trip will occur, opening the CBR output. If the main contactor is either open when it should be closed or closed when it should be open a Frozen Contactor logical trip will occur, opening the CBR relay. The CBR relay is intended to be used to open the upstream circuit breaker. A back EMF timer is also provided to inhibit the frozen contactor electrical trip function for a short period after the main contactor is open. The EFL also has an undervoltage protection function which, if activated, will open the main contactor if the voltage on the load side of the contactor falls below 50% of the selected system voltage. The EFL is available in two configurations, an internal barrier configuration and an external barrier configuration. If using the internal barrier unit, the high voltage connection leads will extend directly from the EFL Relay. If using the external barrier version, the high voltage connection barrier is stored inside a separate enclosure, allowing the barrier to be installed closer to the phase conductors if required. This external barrier is supplied with ‘flying leads’ for connection to the phase conductors. The external barrier is then required to be wired to a stand-alone EFL Relay (no internal barrier). Key Features  AS/NZS 2081:2011 compliant  Earth Fault Lock-out (EFLO) protection  Frozen Contactor (FC) protection  Selectable Undervoltage (UV) protection  Compatible with a wide range of system voltages  Internal or external barriers available 3.2 Applications The Ampcontrol EFL is compliant to AS/NZS 2081:2011 sections 7 & 9, and has been designed for installation on mining outlets that require earth fault lockout and frozen contactor protection. The EFL is capable of being installed on a wide range of system voltages from 110V up to 1.1kV (barrier dependent). In addition to EFLO and FC protection, the EFL also offers a selectable undervoltage protection function. NOTE The EFL Relay is not for use in hazardous areas. Customers should select the EFL-IS (available in 2016) or OMA products for applications requiring intrinsic safety. For a typical electrical installation diagram, refer to Figure 4.6.

Before the EFL Relay can be installed, there are a number of things that need to be considered and understood to prevent incorrect or unsafe operation of the EFL Relay or the system into which it is installed. Along with relevant competence, and an understanding of the target application, the following points should be considered: 4.1.1 Ensure that the information provided in this user manual is fully understood. It is extremely important that the limitations and functionality of the EFL Relay are understood to prevent incorrect installation and use from creating a potentially dangerous risk. If in doubt as to the nature of the limitations or their implication, consult a competent authority such as a supervisor or Ampcontrol technical representative. 4.1.2 Ensure that the application into which the EFL Relay is being installed has been properly defined, designed and approved. Any system intended to mitigate the risk of injury needs to be properly designed and implemented. Such a system must be the result of structured risk analysis with the outcomes used to define the system requirements. These requirements, in turn, will guide the choice of instrumentation, logic solvers and actuators needed to implement the system. Understanding the needs of the system will ensure proper selection of equipment. 4.1.3 Ensure that the EFL Relay will properly perform the required functions within the system design. It is important to understand how the EFL Relay is intended to interact with other equipment within a system. For safe and reliable use, it is crucial that neither the EFL Relay logical operation nor its signalling be compromised by incompatibilities with connected equipment. 4.1.4 Modifications of any form to the EFL Relay are prohibited. The EFL Relay, as supplied, has been designed and manufactured to comply with the requirements of protection standards.

The power consumption of the relay is less than 5W. 4.4.2 Earth Fault Lockout (EFLO) Trip Indication (Terminals 5 & 6) The EFLO Trip Indication Contact is a normally closed (NC) contact that is used to provide external indication that an EFLO trip has occurred. The contact is energised when the system is healthy and will de-energise (close) when an EFLO trip is active. 4.4.3 Frozen Contactor (FC) Trip Indication (Terminals 7 & 8) The FC Trip Indication Contact is a normally closed (NC) contact that is used to provide external indication that an FC trip has occurred. The contact is energised when the system is healthy and will de-energise (close) when an FC trip is active. 4.4.4 Main Contactor Relay (MCR) (Terminals 9, 10 & 11) The MCR relay is the EFL’s control relay for the main contactor. The relay is a change-over, allowing the control circuit to be implemented with either normally open or normally closed MCR. The MCR relay is intended to be wired into the control circuit for the main contactor’s interposing circuit relay (INT), see Figure 4.6. The MCR will energise when the system is deemed healthy, allowing power to be applied to the interposing relay when required. When the system cannot be deemed healthy, either when the EFL is starting, in a tripped state or immediately after the contactor has opened (prior to EFLO test being performed), the MCR relay will be de-energised, preventing the interposing relay from energising and hence preventing the main contactor from closing. 4.4.5 Circuit Breaker Relay (CBR) (Terminals 13, 14 & 15) The CBR relay is the EFL’s control relay for the upstream circuit breaker. The relay is a change-over, allowing the control circuit to be implemented with either normally open or normally closed CBR.

EFL PROTECTION RELAY USER MANUAL MAG-178 Version 5 – MARCH/2020 Uncontrolled Copy - Refer to Ampcontrol Website for Latest Version Page 14 of 23 APPROVED FOR EXTERNAL DISTRIBUTION – PROPERTY OF AMPCONTROL PTY LTD – NOT TO BE REPRODUCED IN PART The CBR relay is intended to be wired into the control circuit for the upstream circuit breaker. The CBR will energise when the FC is in a healthy state. If an FC trip occurs, the CBR will be de-energised, tripping the upstream circuit breaker and removing power from the frozen contactor. 4.4.6 Main Contactor Input (MCI) (Terminals 17 & 18) The main contactor indication terminals should be wired to one of the main contactors normally open (NO) auxiliary contacts. This provides indication on whether the main contactor is open or closed. 4.4.7 Run Input (RUN) (Terminals 19 & 20) The run indication terminals should be wired to the contacts of the interposing relay that drives the main contactor, see Figure 4.6. This provides indication on whether the interposing relay is open or closed and hence whether the main contactor should be open or closed. The RUN input tells the EFL what the main contactor should be doing and the MCI input tells the EFL what the main contactor is doing. 4.4.8 Earth Connection (Terminals 21, 22, 23 & 24) The EFL Relay is to be earthed to the main earth using at least one 1.5mm2 earth cable. 4.4.9 Reset (Terminals 25 & 26) The EFL Relay’s Reset terminals allow a normally open pushbutton or contact to be wired to the EFL Relay to provide a reset function. Provided that a fault condition is not still present, shorting these two terminals will reset any EFLO or UV trips on the relay (all FC trips must be reset using the push button on the fascia of the relay). 4.4.10 Test-Delay Input (Terminals 27 & 28) This input should be shorted to enable the test delay operation. This typically applies to the use in a fan starter utilising a Burp sequence. Shorting terminals will inhibit the EFL performing checks during the burp sequences. 4.4.11 Phase Conductor Connections (Flying Leads) The EFL Relay interfaces with the phase conductors of the protected outlet via a high voltage barrier. The EFL can be purchased with an internal barrier, or the EFL Relay and barrier can be purchased as separate “stand-alone” units. The connection to the phase conductors is made using the three flying leads (A, B & C phase) that extend from the EFL Relay/Barrier. These leads are each 1.2m long. If the EFL Relay is purchased with the external barrier configuration, the EFL Relay and the external barrier will need to be wired together as per Figure 4.6.

This manual does not cover system commissioning; the full scope of commissioning tests should be determined during the risk assessment or FMEA covering the design of the electrical protection system. The following tests can provide guidance on checking the correct operation of the EFL Relay during commissioning. This is not intended to provide an exhaustive commissioning checklist, but should be considered to be a minimum set of tests. 5.1 Earth Fault Lockout Test In order to ensure that the EFL Relay’s earth fault lockout protection is operating correctly, perform the following test: 1. Open the main contactor that the EFL Relay is protecting. 2. Connect a separate 2.9MΩ resistor between each outlet phase conductor and earth, on load side of the Main Contactor. 3. Ensure that the EFL initiates an EFLO trip when each of the resistors are placed on the phase conductors individually. 4. Confirm that an EFLO trip prevents the main contactor from being closed. WARNING: if the outlet is attempted to be started while these resistors are connected, and the EFL Relay fails, the full system voltage will be applied to the resistors. NOTE: If preforming an EFLO test with a load connected, a single 0.9MΩ resistor can be connected between any phase and earth. 5.2 Frozen Contactor Test In order to ensure that the EFL Relay’s frozen contactor protection is operating correctly, perform the following test: 1. Open the main contactor that the EFL Relay is protecting. 2. Apply a 25Vac or 60Vdc voltage to the load side of the contactor 3. Wait for the Back EMF timer to end. 4. Ensure that the CBR output de-energises from an Electrical Frozen Contactor (FC) trip, tripping the upstream circuit breaker. 5.3 Undervoltage Test In order to ensure that the EFL Relay’s under voltage protection is operating correctly, perform the following test: 1. Open the main contactor that the EFL Relay is protecting. 2. Using a double poled switch, close the RUN and MCI inputs to the EFL Relay at the same time. This will indicate to the EFL Relay that the main contactor is closed and is required to be. As the main contactor remains open, the relay should see no voltage on the load side of the contactor. 3. Confirm that the EFL Relay initiates an undervoltage trip. 4. After an undervoltage trip occurs (which should result in the main contactor opening), if the MCI input to the EFL Relay does not open within 1 second, a Frozen Contact (FC) trip will occur.

EFL PROTECTION RELAY USER MANUAL MAG-178 Version 5 – MARCH/2020 Uncontrolled Copy - Refer to Ampcontrol Website for Latest Version Page 17 of 23 APPROVED FOR EXTERNAL DISTRIBUTION – PROPERTY OF AMPCONTROL PTY LTD – NOT TO BE REPRODUCED IN PART 6.2 Earth Fault Lockout (EFLO) Protection Function The EFL’s EFLO Protection Function provides earth fault lockout protection for the connected outlet as per AS/NZS 2081:2011 requirements. Whilst the outlet’s main contactor is open, the EFL Relay will continually preform an LV test to monitor the impedance of each of the phase conductors to earth. When the impedance of any of the phase conductors falls below the tripping threshold, defined below, the EFL relay will initiate the EFLO trip and open the MCR output relay. When the EFL Relay first energises, an EFLO test will be performed before the MCR output relay can close. The initial EFLO test can take up to 10 seconds to complete, as the EFL Relay must first charge the cable before the measurements can be taken. If the EFLO test is successful, the EFL Relay will then energise the MCR output relay – provided that there are no latched FC, EFLO or UV trips. If an EFLO trip occurs, this trip will be latched in the memory of the EFL Relay. In order to clear an EFLO trip, the External Reset terminals must be shorted together. This is typically achieved through the use of an externally wired normally open push button. NOTE To reset an EFLO trip, the External Reset terminals of the EFL Relay must be shorted together using an externally wired pushbutton or relay. An EFLO trip cannot be cleared whilst the EFL Relay is de-energised. The EFL trip point has been chosen to ensure compliance to the worst case scenario as defined in AS/NZS 2081:2011 section 7.2. “Earth fault lockout protection devices shall be designed to prevent energization of the circuit interrupting device when the insulation resistance of any active conductor to earth is below 1 MΩ. This requirement shall apply to any combination of active conductors to earth” To ensure compliance with AS/NZS 2081 2011, the EFL set point is influenced by the configuration that reduces the impedance to earth the greatest. This being all three phases shorted together through a Load or connected motor, essentially causing all three phase leakage impedance’s to be paralleled. An electric motor or load can be treated as a short circuit for the applied DC test voltage. Under this circumstance the EFL needs to trip before it detects 1MΩ to ensure compliance. The individual leakage impedances for each phase in a un-shorted configuration (due to load or motor) is then required to be greater than 3MΩ to ensure the minimum level of safety is maintained. Table 1: EFL Trip Threshold EFL Trip Threshold Outlet Configuration Example 1Meg Load on Outlet Outlet cable terminated by Motor 3Meg Open Circuit Outlet Shuttle car with incomer contactor 6.2.1 Test Delay Input This input should only be utilised when the EFL has been installed in an outlet configured as a Fan starter implementing a burp sequence. When shorted, this input will prevent the EFL initiating the EFLO checks when the Main Contactor opens. This test delay is limited to 16 seconds after the MCI has indicated the Main Contactor has opened. Burp sequences should not be greater than 15 seconds when this mode is used. Once the Main Contactor has been closed for greater than 25 seconds the EFL will operate as per normal. This indicates that the burp sequence has ended and will then initiate an EFLO check after Main contactor has opened (and the Back EMF Timer has ended).

EFL PROTECTION RELAY USER MANUAL MAG-178 Version 5 – MARCH/2020 Uncontrolled Copy - Refer to Ampcontrol Website for Latest Version Page 18 of 23 APPROVED FOR EXTERNAL DISTRIBUTION – PROPERTY OF AMPCONTROL PTY LTD – NOT TO BE REPRODUCED IN PART If the MCI remains open for >15 seconds before the relay believes the burp sequence has ended, the relay will operate as per normal operation. That being, the Back EFM timer will initiate and then the relay will perform the standard EFLO tests upon completion. 6.3 Frozen Contactor (FC) Protection Function The EFL’s FC Protection Function provides frozen contactor and contactor loss of vacuum protection for the connected outlet as per AS/NZS 2081:2011 requirements. The EFL Relay provides this protection in two forms: logical protection and electrical protection. The FC (Logical) Protection Function is initiated when a discrepancy is observed between the position of the Main Contactor (MC) and the position of the Main Contactor’s interposing relay. A discrepancy will indicate that the MC is either welded shut (Failed to Open) or frozen open (Failed to Close). The position of the MC is monitored by the EFL Relay by wiring an auxiliary contact of the MC to the MCI input. The position of the MC interposing relay is monitored by the EFL Relay by wiring an auxiliary contact to the RUN input of the relay. The FC (Electrical) Protection Function monitors the voltage on the load side of the main contactor via the HV barrier. When the contactor is opened, the EFL Relay will wait a period of time for the Back EMF of the supplied motor to subside (determined by the Back EMF time setting) before applying the test conditions to the voltage measured on the outlet. After the Back EMF timer has expired, if the measured voltage exceeds the test conditions of 25Vac or 60Vdc, then the EFL Relay will initiate an FC (Electrical) trip. Both the FC (Logical) trip and FC (Electrical) trip will result in the EFL Relay opening its CBR output relay, which should be wired into the tripping circuit of the upstream device (e.g. circuit breaker). An FC trip will be latched in the memory of the EFL Relay and can be reset by pressing the FC Trip Reset Button on the fascia of the EFL Relay (after the fault condition has been investigated and rectified). FC trips cannot be reset via the externally wired remote reset. NOTE To reset an FC trip, the button on the fascia of the EFL Relay must be pressed. A FC trip is not able to be reset unless the EFL Relay’s super capacitor is charged (refer to Section 6.6).

This function will monitor the voltage on the outlet via the HV Barrier and initiate an UV trip if the measured voltage falls below 50% of the selected system voltage. The UV Protection Function can be activated and deactivated via the Voltage Selector Switch on the fascia of the EFL Relay. If a UV trip occurs, this trip will be latched in the memory of the EFL Relay. In order to clear a UV trip, the External Reset terminals must be shorted together. This is typically achieved through the use of an externally wired normally open push button. NOTE To reset a UV trip, the External Reset terminals of the EFL Relay must be shorted together using an externally wired pushbutton or relay. A UV trip cannot be cleared whilst the EFL Relay is de-energised. 6.5 User Interface Figure 6.2: EFL Relay User Interface: Functionality of Operators Rotate the Voltage Selector to select the system voltage of the outlet. The Undervoltage Protection Function is also activated with this selector. To turn UV Protection on, select a system voltage within the white portion of the circle. To turn off UV protection, select a system voltage from the red side of the circle. VOLTAGE SELECTOR FUNCTIONALITY Rotate the Time Selector to select the time setting for the ‘Back EMF timer’. This setting will determine the length of time that the EFL Relay will wait for Back EMF voltages to subside after the contactor has opened, before applying the trip conditions to the measurements. TIME SELECTOR FUNCTIONALITY All FC Trips must be reset by pressing the RST pushbutton. Provided that the EFL Relay’s super capacitor is charged, an FC Trip reset can be performed when power is not applied to the relay. RST PUSHBUTTON FUNCTIONALITY

The consequence of the EFL Relay having a discharged super-capacitor is that latched FC trips will not be able to be reset until the super-capacitor has been recharged. Recharging the super-capacitor requires the unit to be connected to an external power source for a period of 5min. This charging can occur when the unit is installed in its service enclosure by energising the control supply to the relay or, when the relay is not installed, by connecting the EFL relay to 24Vac or 24Vdc supply.

These ‘routine inspections’ must be carried out by suitably trained people with knowledge of the EFL Relay and the systems into which it is fitted. Routine inspections may take the form of either visual-only checks, or visual and ‘hands-on’ checks. 7.1.1 Visual Only Inspections A basic visual inspection focuses on looking at the installation for signs of physical damage, water or dust ingress and the condition of cables and labels. This type of inspection may involve opening cabinets to gain access to the EFL Relay and other equipment. This level of inspection may also include cleaning display windows that have become obscured by dirt. Observations would typically be:  Check for physical damage.  Check that enclosure housing relay is sealed and free from water and dust ingress. Confirming the IP rating has not been compromised.  Check that connected cables are free from cuts, abrasions and obvious signs of damage. Cable restraints are in good order and correctly fitted.  Check that no modifications have been carried out to installed equipment. 7.1.2 Hands-On (Detailed) Inspections A more detailed inspection would include all of the elements of a visual inspection, plus some checks that cover the integrity of connections, fixtures and fittings such as:  Verify that the EFL, and Barrier if installed, are secured in place.  Check wiring against latest signed off schematics  Verify all electrical connections are secure with no loose screw terminals or DIN rail terminals not fitted to rails etc. 7.2 Equipment Maintenance WARNING! The EFL Relay and Barrier have no user-serviceable parts. All repairs must be carried out by Ampcontrol only. If a fault develops, return the unit to Ampcontrol for repair. It is essential that no attempt be made to repair the unit as any attempt to dismantle or repair the EFL Relay or Barrier can seriously compromise the safety of the unit and voids product warranty. It is recommended that the electrical protection system incorporating the EFL Relay be subject to regular functional tests at intervals determined by risk assessment or FMEA. These intervals typically coincide with periodic maintenance checks and will cover (but not limited to) tests such as:  Functional testing of the Earth Fault Lockout (EFLO) protection function.  Functional testing of the Frozen Contactor (FC) protection function.  Functional testing of the Undervoltage (UV) protection function.
