889 GENERATOR PROTECTION SYSTEM – INSTRUCTION MANUAL
OUTPUTS
CHAPTER 4: SETPOINTS
can be reset with a reset command. If the Self-reset type is selected, the output relay is
energized when the corresponding element operates and it stays energized until the
element drops out.
CRITICAL FAILURE RELAY
The 8 Series relay is equipped with one output relay (# 8 - “Critical Failure Relay”) for
failsafe indication. The Critical Failure Relay is a Form-C contact with one NO and one NC
contact (no control power). There are no user-programmable setpoints associated with this
output relay.
Output Relay 1 (F1)
Trip
For the 889 relay ordered with one breaker, these setpoints are found at the first path
(TRIP); for the 889 ordered with two breakers, these setpoints are found at the second path
(Aux Relay 1).

NAME
Range: Up to 13 alphanumeric characters
Default: Trip
The setpoint is used to name the Trip relay by selecting up to 13 alphanumeric
characters.
NAME
Range: Up to 13 alphanumeric characters
Default: Trip or AuxRelay 1
The setpoint is used to name the Trip relay by selecting up to 13 alphanumeric
characters. The default setting is Trip for an 889 relay with one breaker, and AuxRelay 1
for an 889 relay with two breakers.
SEAL-IN TIME (displayed only if Type=Pulsed)
Range: 0.00 to 9.99 s in steps of 0.01 s
Default: 0.10 s
This setting defines the time to be added to the Reset time of Relay 1 “Trip” output, thus
extending its pulse width. This is useful for those applications where the 52 contacts
reporting the breaker state are faster than the 52 contacts that are responsible for
interrupting the coil current.
