GE 12CEH52A1DL

Product Name:​ GE CEH Series Single-Phase Relay (Loss-of-Excitation Relay)
Product Introduction:​ Based on the GE CEH52A platform, this device belongs to GE’s family of single-phase protective relays. The CEH-type functions as a generator loss-of-excitation (LOE) protection relay, designed to detect the disappearance of synchronous machine excitation and initiate tripping action.

Detailed content

Technical Specifications:
  • Relay Type:​ Single-phase relay (CEH52A base platform)
  • Frame Size:​ 52A
  • Frequency:​ 50/60 Hz universal
  • Contact Configuration:​ Multi-group transfer contacts (A2D configuration)
  • Operation Principle:​ Monitors machine terminal voltage and excitation current; trips when values exceed set impedance circle or voltage threshold
  • Enclosure:​ Draw-out relay case with front dial and test button
  • Terminal Connection:​ Rear plug-in terminals
Key Features:​ Impedance-circle or voltage-drop based loss-of-excitation detection; mechanical/electromagnetic hybrid construction; anti-nuisance tripping with delay timer; draw-out design for easy maintenance.
Application Scenarios:​ Loss-of-excitation protection for hydro and thermal synchronous generators; industrial drive synchronous machines.
Installation & Usage Notes:​ PT circuits must be fused; CT secondary must never be opened; relay face should be oriented toward inspection aisle; setpoints must be coordinated with excitation system; periodic loss-of-excitation simulation testing is recommended.
