The relays which can cause the alam are auxiliary (X) relays actuated by the follcwing primry relays:

The diesel generator and its relays do not respond in the same manner for all relays.

The raiponse of each depenis an the conditicos urdar which the diesel generator was started, i.e., emelm start or normal start situation.

This can affect whether the diesel gererator continues to run or not.

The three lockcut relays on the generator ccritrol panel each have a TRIP and a RESEr pcsition.

1.

186A lockout relay will trip when a diesel generator differential relay picks up.

This is further explained in the discussion of the TRIP GEN DIFF alarm.

2.

186B lockout relay will trip when the 140-loss of excitatimi relay picks up; 151V/A, B, or C-voltage restrained overturzent (OC)

I relays for each tase relay picks up; 151N picks up en an avarcurrent at the neutral lead of the generator; 160 indicates a failure of a potential transfmnar (PI).

3.

186C lockcut relay will trip while the engine is runniry an a 132 reverse power, or 146 rugative phase sequence.
