When creating a new Protection, Elipse Power automatically creates the Measurements folder with Protection Mode-type and Protection Operate-type Discrete Measurements. This location is the indicated one to create Measurements related to this Protection, such as configurations, protection initialization, and protection profile, among others.
NOTE |
Applications created in versions previous to version 6.8 did now allow deleting the ProtectionMode and ProtectionOperate Measurements, created automatically when inserting a Protection, from the Measurements folder. Starting with version 6.8, these Measurements can be deleted, even in applications created in previous versions and loaded into version 6.8. Likewise, an application created in version 6.8 and opened in a previous version can delete those Measurements. |
In addition to the Measurements folder, users can create the Commands folder, in which they can create Commands to change the protection mode or change the protection profile, among others.
For a Protection to work properly, the ProtectionType and ElectricalPhase properties must be configured. Protection properties can be checked on Elipse Power Reference and Scripts Manual.
