Description

Course Information

This is a two-day course.

Course Base Fees: $1,000 USD

APP 87 provides comprehensive application training for the SEL-387 and the SEL‑587 percentage-restrained differential relays, which offer sensitive, high-speed protection for transformer, machine, and bus differential applications. Students (in groups of two) gain hands-on experience in communicating, setting, metering, monitoring, retrieving and analyzing event reports, and performing control functions by working directly with SEL-387 and SEL-587 Relays. Course topics include:

  • Three-phase, dual-slope percentage-restrained differential elements.
  • Tap, phase, and zero-sequence compensation for transformer differential applications.
  • Harmonic restraint or blocking for transformer inrush and overexcitation.
  • Unrestrained differential element.
  • Multiple phase, negative-sequence, and zero-sequence overcurrent elements.
  • Restricted earth fault ground differential.
  • SELogic control equations.

Audience

This course is intended for utility and industrial protection engineers and power system consultants.
