Increased quality, faster lead times, and reduced total cost of ownership.
The SEL-7200 CTO family of panels and retrofit plates provides predesigned, advanced solutions for protection, control, automation, communications, and cybersecurity in different substation applications.
SEL CTO panels embody SEL best-known engineering methods and field-tested expertise in mechanical design, cable management, protection, precise time, automation, and communications.
Components and functionalities associated with a specific substation application (e.g., feeder protection and control) are co-located and designed as an application module. Application modules support common protection and automation practices while universal wiring to terminal blocks allows customization to adapt to any common primary equipment configuration and operation practice.

SEL-7207 Automation and Communications Panel—These panels provide high-accuracy time synchronization; centralized engineering access with user-based authentication and authorization; data collection for SCADA; and inherently cybersecure, reliable, and high-performance Ethernet communications using SEL software-defined networking (SDN) technology.
SEL-7210 Retrofit Protection Plates—Retrofit and modernize existing panels or switchgear to get all the benefits of CTO solutions. Fifteen-foot pigtails allow connection to your existing terminal blocks.
Human error is often referenced as the main cause for events that occur in the power system. With standardized applications, co-located components, adequate space, and improved labeling, SEL CTO panels help increase safety for personnel and reduce the possibility for error.
By organizing components and functionalities into application modules, SEL leverages world-class manufacturing principles to provide a more robust, consistent, and repeatable product.
All components associated with an application module are physically co-located, reducing the possibility for mistakes while simplifying the installation, commissioning and future module additions or upgrades.
Connections are positioned within easy reach for technicians and every wire is labeled at both ends to make connections obvious and to speed up troubleshooting.
Application modules are mechanically assembled, wired, and tested in the production line for faster production and delivery.
All wires are cut, stripped, and crimped on state-of-the-art automated equipment, eliminating waste, guaranteeing repeatability, and ensuring the quality of each crimp.

SEL CTO panels embody SEL best-known engineering methods and field-tested expertise in mechanical design, cable management, protection, precise time, automation, communications, and metering.
Application modules support common protection and automation practices while universal wiring to terminal blocks allows customization flexibility to adapt to any common primary equipment configuration and operation practice.
SEL uses the same world-class manufacturing principles for our panels that we use for all our industry-leading products. This allows us to design, manufacture, test, and deliver top-quality and comprehensive panel systems.
Complete vertical integration and standardized application designs help us maintain competitive prices and high quality while still meeting the highest functionality requirements.
SEL CTO panels provide the following:
We build a prototype and test each application module design to ensure it meets functional specifications. This process allows our manufacturing facility to properly document processes and test manufacturing equipment for production.
SEL CTO panels come with comprehensive information using best practices for documenting protection and control circuitry. With standardization, the level of error-free detail is unmatched compared to what is practical with custom panels. SEL drawing packages are personalized to your substation project and nomenclature and include:
We engineer, manufacture, and test our panels to ensure adequate operation before delivery. When a panel arrives at your site, it is already verified as fully functional.
SEL panels are supported by an unmatched ten-year warranty and the industry’s best customer service.
The Firmware IDs for older versions of the firmware can typically be found in Appendix A of the instruction manual.
