Construction and hardware Connection techniques and housing with many advantages The relay housing is 1/6 of a 19" rack and makes replacement of predecessors model very easy. The height is 244 mm (9.61"). Pluggable current and voltage terminals allow for pre-wiring and simplify the exchange of devices in the case of support. CT shorting is done in the removable current terminal block. It is thus not possible to opencircuit a secondary current transformer. All binary inputs are independent and the pick-up thresholds are settable using software settings (3 stages). The relay current transformer taps (1 A / 5 A) are new software settings. Up to 9 function keys can be programmed for prede ned menu entries, switching sequences, etc. The assigned function of the function keys can be shown in the display of the relay. If a conventional (inductive) set of primary voltage transformers is not available in the feeder, the phase-to-ground voltages can be measured directly through a set of capacitor cones in the medium-voltage switchgear. In this case, the functions directional time-overcurrent protection, ground (ANSI 67N), voltage protection (ANSI 27/59) and frequency protection (ANSI 81O/U) are available. With overcurrent protection 7SJ81 there is also a device for low-power current transformer applications.
