The undervoltage elements may be used for protection of the generator and/or its auxiliary equipment during prolonged
undervoltage conditions. They are active only when the generator is online. The alarm element is definite time and the trip
element can be definite time or a curve. When the magnitude of the average phase-phase voltage is less than the pickup ×
the generator rated phase-phase voltage, the element will begin to time out. If the time expires, a trip or alarm will occur.

The curve reset rate is a linear reset time from the threshold
of trip. If the VT type is selected as None, VT fuse loss is
detected, or the magnitude of I

< 7.5% CT, the undervoltage
protection is disabled. The pickup levels are insensitive to
frequency over the range of 5 to 90 Hz.
The formula for the undervoltage curve is:
(EQ 4.18)
