Generation
Combustion and Combined-Cycle
Provide reliable protection, control, integration, and synchronization of your plant’s mission-critical generation functions with an SEL solution. SEL offerings for combustion and combined-cycle generation include:
- Comprehensive generator and step-up transformer protection.
- Secure communications for integration into plant control systems.
- Automation, annunciation, precise time, and equipment monitoring.
You can use SEL products to:
- Protect against faults during start cycles by using the wide frequency band of the SEL-400G Advanced Generator Protection System or the SEL-2664S Stator Ground Protection Relay.
- Protect both the generator and step-up transformer with a single relay.
- Add annunciation, metering, and transformer monitoring for a complete generation system solution.
Reciprocating Generators
Protect diesel and natural gas reciprocating generators with SEL-700G Generator Protection Relays. They provide ideal standalone protection for generator installations and are ready to integrate with plant control systems.
SEL-700G Generator Protection Relay
A complete protection and synchronization solution for generators of any size. Flexible I/O, advanced communications capabilities, and a variety of mounting options make it ideal for upgrades and retrofits.
- Current differential protection
- Breaker wear monitoring
- Islanding detection
- Synchronization to the grid
- Metering and reporting functions
Combined-Cycle Generation
Protect and control large combined-cycle generation systems—including step-up transformers—with a solution based on the SEL-400G Advanced Generator Protection System.
SEL-400G Advanced Generator Protection System
Advanced protection for generators, generator buses, and generator step-up (GSU) transformers, all in one package. Automatically synchronize frequency, voltage, and phase control. Detect faults faster, limit generator damage, and return to service faster.
- Comprehensive stator fault protection
- Injection-based rotor/field winding protection (SEL-400G plus SEL-2664S Stator Ground Protection Relay and SEL-2664 Field Ground Module)
- Synchronization to the grid
- Metering and reporting
SEL-2664S Stator Ground Protection Relay
Protect high-impedance grounded generators from ground faults at standstill, during startup, and while running.
- Stator winding protection
- Generator startup protection
- Redundant protection for critical applications
- Elimination of protection blind spots via frequency injection capability
Monitoring, Control, and Integration
Communicate the relay status, stator temperature, and bearing temperature to the plant control system with SEL products.
SEL-2240 Axion
Remote data acquisition in a rugged, modular platform. Choose versions with 4 or 10 slots, and mix and match the modules to fit your application. Each Axion becomes a node in your plant control network, sending deterministic fiber-optic communications to remote terminal units (RTUs), relays, or programmable logic controllers (PLCs).
