IEEE-library form of loss-of-voltage monitoring relay: a loss-of-voltage relay changes its output for a documented absence-of-voltage condition.

## In plain English

### What does ANSI/IEEE Loss-of-voltage monitoring relay form mean?

This reference locates loss-of-voltage monitoring relay in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented voltage protection relays family. A loss-of-voltage relay changes its output for a documented absence-of-voltage condition. Schematics distinguish measurement failure, actual source loss and auxiliary-supply loss where the design requires them. The public library uses HCR1F39 for its horizontal representation; this is a vendor block name, not an IEEE standards symbol number.

### A simple example

Trace the measured quantity or initiating control signal separately from the output contacts. The device tag links the sensing or operating element to the controlled circuit; settings, reset behaviour and the actual terminal arrangement belong in the selected equipment documentation.

### What the drawings help you do

Trace the monitored voltage independently from relay auxiliary power. Loss-of-voltage indication is not necessarily the same function as breaker undervoltage release. The linked functional counterpart explains the same operating role in its own drawing context; agreement of every detailed convention mark is not asserted.

### This particular reference

IEEE-library form of loss-of-voltage monitoring relay: a loss-of-voltage relay changes its output for a documented absence-of-voltage condition. Loss-of-voltage indication is not necessarily the same function as breaker undervoltage release.

### Terms

- Normally open / normally closed: The contact state in the normal condition defined for the drawing.
- Coil: A wound conductor that can produce a magnetic field when energised.
- Terminal: An identified point where a conductor connects.

- Trace the monitored voltage independently from relay auxiliary power.
- The preview is an original explanation of this function. Match the actual drawing convention to its legend and the selected equipment documentation.

## Information to show or reference

- Identify monitored source
- State loss criterion
- Show output and supply-loss behaviour

## Important distinction

Loss-of-voltage indication is not necessarily the same function as breaker undervoltage release.
