Micom P923 RELAY in our generator relay panel has tripped on undervoltage as seen from fault records.The relay was set to operate at 80 % voltage with a definite time lag of two seconds.Though it is showing that the relay has tripped on undervoltage in fault records , but when we see the magnitude of the voltage during the fault it is showing around 95 % of the rated voltage (11 kv).So my question is why the relay has tripped on undervoltage when the magnitude of voltage was only 95 % of the rated?.OR is it that the magnitude of volatge during tripping is not being registered correctly during the fault.

RE: MICOM P923 RELAY
This voltage magnitude comes from an event report of the relay that tripped or some other measurement?
If this is a new installation, I would verify the PT ratios assumed by the relay against the actual PT ratio. I assume the settings actually in the relay (not on a piece of paper) have been verified?
Also, verify the voltage being seen at the relay. Any chance of a blown PT fuse?

RE: MICOM P923 RELAY
Thanks for the reply:
The voltage magnitude comes from the same relay and not from other measurement devices
Pretty old installation and the chances of blown fuse is absent
RE: MICOM P923 RELAY
did you have a look at the disturbance record?
