Key Benefits

The most flexible protection and control device for distribution feeder applications
Advanced IEC61850 Ed. 2 certified implementation, complete settings via SCL files and IEC 61850-9-2 process bus solution enable resource and platform managing optimization and reduce cost of ownership
Routable GOOSE (R-GOOSE) enables GOOSE messages going beyond the substation, which enables wide area protection and control applications
Unique and secure downed conductor detection
Flexible load encroachment allows secure operation during heavy load conditions
Advanced automation capabilities
Application flexibility with multiple I/O options including high density I/O, programmable logic, modularity, and specific customization
Robust network security enabling critical intrastructure protection
High-speed inter-relay communications reducing relay-to-relay wiring and costs
Phasor Measurement Unit (synchrophasor) according to IEEE® C37.118 (2011) and IEC® 61850-90-5 support
An integrated large, full color display, provides real-time visualization and control of the protected bay, via a bay mimic as well as annunciator functionality and graphical visualization of phasors

Applications

Primary protection and control for feeders on solidly, impedance, or resonant (Petersen coil) ground systems
Busblocking/interlocking schemes
Distribution load shedding schemes based on voltage and frequency elements
High-speed fault detection for arc flash mitigation
Throwover schemes (bus transfer scheme applications)
Backup protection for transmission lines, feeders, and transformers
Distributed generation (DG) interconnect protection
