The P391 unit is dispatched either individually or as part of a panel/rack/wall assembly.
Sufficient airflow must be maintained around the P391 at all times. For this reason it is
essential that a minimum clearance from other equipment of 2U (89 mm) above and 1U
(44.5 mm) below the P391 is maintained.
The Rotor Earth Fault Unit (REFU) is normally supplied with an outline diagram showing
the dimensions for panel cut-outs and hole centers. This information can also be found in
the product publication.

The P391 unit can be rack mounted into a rack with M6 x16 slotted pan head screws
provided.

 3DQHO0RXQWLQJ
The P391 unit can be flush mounted into panels using M4 x 8 Pan head Taptite self-
tapping screws provided. These fastenings are available in packs of 5 (Schneider
Electric part number ZA0005 104).
Alternatively tapped holes can be used if the panel has a minimum thickness of 2.5 mm.

Loose relays are supplied with sufficient M4 screws for making connections to the rear
mounted terminal blocks using ring terminals, with a recommended maximum of two ring
terminals per relay terminal.
If required, Schneider Electric can supply M4 90° crimp ring terminals in three different
sizes depending on wire size (see Table 5). Each type is available in bags of 100.

Due to the limitations of the ring terminal, the maximum wire size that can be used for any
of the medium terminals is 6.0 mm2 using ring terminals that are not pre-insulated
(protective conductor terminal (PCT) only). All P391 terminals, except PCT shall be pre-

P391 Rotor Earth Fault Unit (REFU) Mounting ,1 ,QVWDOODWLRQ


insulated ring terminals, the maximum wire size that can be used is reduced to 2.63 mm2
per ring terminal. If a larger wire size is required, two wires can be used in parallel, each
terminated in a separate pre-insulated ring terminal.
Wiring between the DC rotor winding and the P391 shall be suitably rated to withstand at
least twice the rotor winding supply voltage to earth. The wire used for other P391
connections to the medium duty terminal blocks should have a minimum voltage rating of
300 Vrms.
The dielectric withstand of P391 injection resistor connections (A16, B16, A8, B8) to earth
is 5.8 kV rms, 1 minute.
It is recommended that the auxiliary supply wiring should be protected by a High Rupture
Capacity (HRC) fuse of type NIT or TIA, rated between 2 A and 16 A. Other circuits
should be appropriately fused to protect the wire used.

A current loop output is available on the P391 relay, the connections are made using
screw clamp connectors, on the rear of the relay which can accept wire sizes between
0.1 mm2 and 1.5 mm2. It is recommended that connections between the relay and the
current loop inputs and outputs are made using a screened cable, connection of the
screen is discussed in section 6.4 - RTD Connections (if applicable). The wire should
have a minimum voltage rating of 300 Vrms.

 3URWHFWLYH&RQGXFWRU (DUWK &RQQHFWLRQ 3&7 

Every relay must be connected to the local earth bar using the M4 earth studs in the
bottom left hand corner of the relay case. The minimum recommended wire size is 2.5
mm2 and should have a ring terminal at the relay end. Due to the limitations of the ring
terminal, the maximum wire size that can be used for the PCT is 6.0 mm2 per wire. If a
greater cross-sectional area is required, two parallel connected wires, each terminated in
a separate ring terminal at the relay, or a metal earth bar could be used.
As DC currents of up to 29 mA will appear in the earth circuit under rotor earth fault
conditions, the P391 shall be permanently connected to the local earth via the protective
conductor terminal provided.

Note To prevent any possibility of electrolytic action between brass or copper

earth conductors and the rear panel of the relay, precautions should be
taken to isolate them from one another. This could be achieved in a
number of ways, including placing a nickel-plated or insulating washer
between the conductor and the relay case, or using tinned ring terminals.
