Secure and reliable stator ground protection, 100 percent of the time

Secure and reliable stator ground protection, 100 percent of the time

The SEL-2664S Stator Ground Protection Relay is a robust option for generator stator ground protection. The relay uses neutral-overvoltage-based protection and multisine frequency injection to protect 100 percent of the stator winding, even when the generator is at a standstill.

The unique multisine frequency injection function injects and measures impedances at four different frequencies to determine any losses in stator winding capacitance—regardless of whether the generator is at a standstill, starting up or running. Calibration processes performed during commissioning provide an accurate measurement of all wire impedances, allowing the relay to be highly sensitive to overvoltage in a specific system.

The SEL-2664S now ships with the SEL-4664 Calibration Module. This module supports a new calibration process in the relay by automatically cycling through several impedance levels, which the SEL-2664S tests to create an accurate model of system impedances. This fully automated process takes approximately 10 minutes and requires no interaction from the engineer commissioning the device.
