# ANSI/IEEE Residual-voltage monitoring relay form Canonical URL: https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/ansi-residual-voltage-monitoring-relay Publisher: Elora Grid Updated: 2026-10-28 Lookup label: U RES Drawing use: SLD, Schematic Reference families: IEEE / ANSI, Manufacturer ## Symbol convention Convention: IEEE / ANSI Form: Residual Voltage Protection Autodesk IEEE Symbol Preview: Voltage Protection Relays, block HCR1F38. Matching functional counterpart linked separately. Independently drawn educational geometry; not a certified IEEE glyph or database identifier. Related representation: [Residual-voltage monitoring relay](https://eloragrid.ai/symbols/residual-voltage-monitoring-relay) IEEE-library form of residual-voltage monitoring relay: a residual-voltage relay responds to the specified residual-voltage measurement. ## In plain English ### What does ANSI/IEEE Residual-voltage monitoring relay form mean? This reference locates residual-voltage monitoring relay in Autodesk's IEEE-oriented voltage protection relays family. A residual-voltage relay responds to the specified residual-voltage measurement. Its drawing needs the voltage-transformer connection and the input quantity definition. The public library uses HCR1F38 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 Check the measurement circuit that produces the residual voltage. Residual voltage is different from phase-to-neutral voltage at an arbitrary single phase. 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 residual-voltage monitoring relay: a residual-voltage relay responds to the specified residual-voltage measurement. Residual voltage is different from phase-to-neutral voltage at an arbitrary single phase. ### Terms - Winding: A coil of conductor inside an electrical machine or transformer. - 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.
