4HE SYNCHRONISM AND VOLTAGE CHECK FUNCTION WILL EN
SURE WHEN SWITCHING A LINE ONTO BUS BARS THAT THE
STABILITY OF THE NETWORK WILL NOT BE ENDANGERED 4HE
FUNCTION CAN BE PROGRAMMED TO PERFORM THE SYN
CHRONISM AND VOLTAGE CHECK ONLY FOR AUTO RECLOSE
ONLY FOR MANUAL CLOSE OR FOR BOTH CASES $IFFERENT
PERMISSION CRITERIA CAN ALSO BE PROGRAMMED FOR AU
TOMATIC CLOSE AND FOR MANUAL CLOSE
4HE SYNCHRONISM AND VOLTAGE CHECK ELEMENT USES
THE FEEDER VOLTAGE
DESIGNATED WITH 5
AND THE
BUS BAR VOLTAGE
DESIGNATED WITH 5
FOR COM
PARISON OF THE TWO VOLTAGES 4HESE VOLTAGES CAN BE
ANY CONVENIENT PHASE TO EARTH OR PHASE TO
PHASE VOLTAGE BUT MUST BE THE SAME ON THE FEEDER
SIDE AND ON THE BUS BAR SIDE

)T IS HOWEVER POSSIBLE TO OPERATE WITH AN EXTERNAL
AUTO RECLOSE RELAY )N THIS CASE THE SIGNAL EX
CHANGE BETWEEN THE DEVICES MUST BE PERFORMED
THROUGH BINARY INPUTS AND OUTPUTS
