DESCRIPTION

The MK300A and MK300EA are microprocessors based earth leakage relays designed for measure
the low-level current flowing from the live part of the installation to the earth in the absent of the
insulation fault. A zero phase current transformer is connected to the relay and function as the sensor
for sensing the leakage current. All conductors of the circuit to be protected shall go through the ZCT.
For better fault preventive control of the system or equipment to be protected, MK300EA series comes
with a pre-fault alarm contact and a positive safety contact. The pre-fault alarm contact is activated
whenever the leakage current exceed 50% of the sensitivity setting. While the positive safety contact
is activated if the relay is power up and function correctly. The MK300EA series also built-in a digital
input port for remotely reset the relay after leakage fault trip, manual test trip or ZCT connection fault.

Press the [TEST] button and hold for 3.5s to perform an integral test on the relay ranging from the
analog sensing circuitry to output contact(s) of the relay as well as the relay indicators and display.

Step 3: Press [] or [] button to increase or decrease the parameter value.


Step 4: To save the selected value, press [] and [] buttons simultaneously and hold for 1.5s. It
will exit the programming mode with [DATA] displaying the new setting.

DIGITAL INPUT PORT *


a. These digital port is for remotely reset the relay when tripped or ZCT connection fault.
b. To reset the relay, make a connection between terminals 4 and 5 of the relay.

During the testing process, the first 2s is to simulate the pre-fault alarm condition then follow by 1.5s
testing on the trip time delay. End of time delay, relay trip.

Trip Contact

Activated and latch by leakage fault trip, manual test trip or ZCT connection fault

Positive Safety
Contact *

Activated when the relay is power up and function correctly with no tripping.

Pre-fault Alarm
Contact *

Activated when the measured leakage current > 50% of the In and self reset when the
measured leakage current < 45% of the In.
Activated and latch when the relay is tripped.

RECORDS
a. Record the 3 latest tripped faults current or tSt for manual trip test.
b. The records are stored in non-volatile memory.
c. To clear the entire record database:

Press the [RESET] button once or through digital input port.

7.

Press the [RESET] button once or through digital input port.

Step 1: When the relay is healthy, press [RESET] button to step to most recent trip fault record or
[FUNC] digit shown A.
Step 2: Press [] and [] buttons simultaneously and hold for 3.5s or the [DATA] show 0. It will
clear the entire fault records database.
