Introduction and Specifications
The SEL-421 Relay is a high-speed transmission line protective relay featuring
single-pole and three-pole tripping and reclosing with synchronism check, circuit
breaker monitoring, circuit breaker failure protection, and series-compensated
line protection logic. The relay features extensive metering and data recording
including high-resolution data capture and reporting.
NOTE:
Not all features mentioned on
this page are available in the
SEL-421-4. See
Supported Features on page 1.7
for
more details about the different
versions of the relay and about
differences among the SEL-421-4 and
SEL-421-5.
The SEL-421 features expanded SEL
OGIC
control equation programming for
easy and flexible implementation of custom protection and control schemes. The
relay has separate protection and automation SEL
OGIC
control equation program-
ming areas with extensive protection programming capability and 1000 lines of
automation programming capability. You can organize automation of SEL
OGIC
control equation programming into 10 blocks of 100 program lines each.
The SEL-421 provides extensive communications interfaces from standard SEL
ASCII and enhanced M
IRRORED
B
ITS
communications protocols to Ethernet con-
nectivity with the optional Ethernet card. With the Ethernet card, you can employ
the latest industry communications tools, including Telnet, FTP, IEC 61850, and
DNP3 (serial and LAN/WAN) protocols.
Purchase of an SEL-421 includes the
AC
SEL
ERATOR
QuickSet SEL-5030 Soft-
ware program. QuickSet assists you in setting, controlling, and acquiring data
from the relays, both locally and remotely.

ERATOR
Architect SEL-5032
Software is included with purchase of the optional Ethernet card with IEC 61850
protocol support. Architect enables you to view and configure IEC 61850 settings
via a GUI interface.
The SEL-421 supports IEEE C37.118-2005, Standard for Synchrophasors for
Power Systems.
The SEL-421 features bay control functionality. The SEL-421 provides a variety
of user-selectable predefined mimic displays. The mimic display selected is dis-
played on the front-panel screen in one-line diagram format. The number of dis-
connects and breakers that can be controlled by the SEL-421 are a function of the
selected mimic display screen. A maximum of ten disconnects and two breakers
can be supported in a single mimic display. Control of the breakers and discon-
nects is available through front-panel pushbuttons, ASCII interface, Fast Mes-
sage, or SEL
OGIC
equations. See
Section 5: Control in the SEL-400 Series Relays
Instruction Manual
for bay control logic and disconnect/circuit breaker operations.
A simple and robust hardware design features efficient digital signal processing.
Combined with extensive self-testing, these features provide relay reliability and
enhance relay availability.
