GE 12CEYG51A3D

  • Product Name: Ground Distance Protection Relay
  • Product Overview: A specialized protective relay designed to detect ground faults on transmission lines by measuring positive sequence impedance.

Detailed content

  • Technical Specifications: Incorporates zero-sequence current compensation; adjustable reach settings; frequency response 47–63 Hz.
  • Functional Features: Calculates fault distance accurately even in parallel line configurations; includes logic to prevent false tripping due to mutual inductance.
  • Application Scenarios: Primary protection for high-voltage transmission lines and substation feeders in utility grids.
  • Performance Parameters: High-speed tripping for close-in faults; zone selectivity for coordination with downstream devices.
  • Installation Requirements: Rack-mounted in a relay panel; requires CT and VT inputs with appropriate burden calculations.
  • Usage Notes: Regular testing using secondary injection kits is mandatory; ensure zero-sequence compensation factors are correctly programmed based on system studies.
