7PG2113/4/5/6 Installation Guide
Section 1: Installation
1.1
Unpacking, Storage and Handling
On receipt remove the relay from the container in which it was received and inspect it for obvious damage. It is
recommended that the relay not be removed from its case at this stage.
If damage has been sustained a claim should be immediately be made against the carrier, also inform Siemens
Protection Devices Limited, and the nearest Siemens agent.
When not required for immediate use, the relay should be returned to its original carton and stored in a clean, dry
place.
The relay contains static sensitive devices, which are susceptible to damage due to static discharge. The relay’s
electronic circuits are protected from damage by static discharge when the relay is housed in its case.
1.2
Recommended Mounting Position
The relay uses a liquid crystal display (LCD) for programming and operation. The LCD has a vertical viewing
angle of ± 30
˚
and is back–lit. However, the best viewing position is at eye level, and this is particularly important
given its control features.
The relay has test points fitted for use during commissioning and routine testing.
Components which have 15kV isolated pilot connections are often mounted separately from the protection relay
in a location more convenient for the connection to the incoming pilot cable and/or in the interest of safety.
Connections to the relay can then be made at the lower 5kV insulation level with precautions and identification to
suit.
The relay should be mounted on the circuit breaker (or protection panel) to allow the operator the best access to
the relay functions.
1.3
Wiring
The product should be wired according to the scheme requirements, with reference to the appropriate wiring
diagram.
1.4
Earthing
Terminal 28 of the PSU (Power Supply Unit) should be solidly earthed by a direct connection to the panel earth.
The Relay case earth stud connection should be connected to terminal 28 of the PSU.
It is normal practice to additionally 'daisy chain' together the case (safety) earths of all the Relays installed in a
panel to prevent earth current loops posing a risk to personnel.
1.5
Ancillary Equipment
The relay can be interrogated locally or remotely. For local interrogation a portable PC with suitable version of
MS Windows (2000 SP4 or XP SP2)and Reydisp Evolution™ s/w (Latest Version available 32 bit) using USB port
situated on front of the relay.
