COMMON MOTOR PROTECTION FAULTS

  • REPEATED OVERLOAD TRIPPING

    The device may be correctly responding to excessive motor current caused by load, motor, or electrical supply problems.

  • INSTANTANEOUS TRIPPING

    High starting current, short circuits, motor faults, or incorrect device selection can cause immediate operation.

  • INCORRECT CURRENT SETTING

    Protection set too low can create nuisance trips, while incorrect high settings may not provide appropriate protection.

  • PHASE LOSS OR IMBALANCE

    Supply faults can increase motor current and result in protection operation.

  • DAMAGED TERMINATIONS

    Loose or overheated terminals create resistance and additional heat inside the motor circuit.

  • FAILED PROTECTION DEVICE

    Ageing or damaged motor protection equipment can itself become unreliable.
