Testing and Troubleshooting
Acceptance Testing
SEL performs detailed acceptance testing on all new relay models and
versions. We are certain the relays we ship meet their published specifications.
It is important for you to perform acceptance testing on a relay if you are
unfamiliar with its operating theory, protection scheme logic, or settings. This
helps ensure the accuracy and correctness of the relay settings when you issue
them.
Equipment Required
The following equipment is necessary to perform all of the acceptance tests:
1. A terminal or computer with terminal emulation with EIA-232
serial interface
2. Interconnecting data cable between terminal and relay
3. Source of relay control power
4. Source of two currents at nominal frequency
5. Source of one current at two times and/or five times nominal
frequency
6. Ohmmeter or contact opening/closing sensing device
Initial Checkout
Step 1. Purpose: Be sure you received the relay in satisfactory
condition.
Method: Inspect the instrument for physical damage such as
dents or rattles.
Step 2. Purpose: Verify requirements for relay logic inputs, control
power voltage level, and voltage and current inputs.
Method: Refer to the information sticker on the rear panel of
the relay.
provides an example. Check the
information on this sticker before applying power to the relay
or starting tests. Be sure your dc supply is correctly adjusted for
the control and logic input requirements.

Power Supply
Step 1. Purpose: Establish control power connections.
Method: Connect a frame ground to terminal marked
GND
on
the rear panel and connect rated control power to terminals
marked
+
and
–
. Relays supplied with 125 or 250 V power
supplies can be powered from a 115 Vac wall receptacle for
testing. Other power supplies require dc voltage and are
polarity sensitive.
Step 2. Purpose: Verify that +5 Vdc is presented on
SERIAL PORTS 2
and
3
. This voltage is sometimes required by external devices that
include a dc-powered modem.
