SEL Test Procedure Negative-Sequence Volt-Pol Directional Overcurrent Element

Angle References for SEL Test Procedure Negative-Sequence Volt-Pol Directional Overcurrent Element Relays

I am writing to enquire about 67N test procedures, specifically Schweitzer relays. The Page 94 of the Relay Testing Handbook #C2 : Practical Relay Testing (50/51/67/59/27/81/87/21) by Chris Werstiuk says “some relays, such as SEL models, do not have user defined characteristics and operate dynamically based on actual operating condictions”

Reclose Function

Reclose Function

Does anyone have a practical plan for testing the reclose function? I have used amp buckets run through the the breaker to the current input so that the fault current is present as soon as the breaker recloses but this is not always convenient. gcerniglia Are you talking about a

SEL751-A Arc Flash Relay

SEL-751A Arc Flash Relay

Does anyone have experience with this relay. More specifically, how are the optical sensors tested during routine maintenance? This looks like a very good relay, but I have concerns about how this unit will be thoroughly tested once it is in service. Thanks in advance for all feedback. branderson
