To verify correct operation of relay optoisolated inputs, perform the following steps: 1. Isolate the relay optoisolated inputs from their dc circuits. Using the Access Level 1 TAR command or the front-panel TAR function, monitor the state of the optoisolated inputs individually while you apply rated dc control voltage to the rear-panel terminals for each input (see Section 9: Front-Panel Operation and Section 10: Serial Port Communications and Commands for more detailed information regarding use of the contact control functions). Return the relay optoisolated inputs to service in their individual circuits. Perform any additional desired tests to verify the circuit performance. These tests do not need to be performed more frequently than your present protection maintenance interval. Two- to five-year intervals are acceptable, particularly if relay event reports are reviewed as suggested above.
RELAY MISOPERATION
In the unlikely event of a relay misoperation, perform the following steps as soon as it is safe and practical to do so: 1. Do not remove dc power from the relay. If desired, you may isolate the relay contact outputs. On a sheet of paper, record the state of the front-panel target LEDs. Also record the contents of rotating display messages from the front-panel LCD display. Press the front-panel STATUS pushbutton. If the relay STATUS is OK, continue with Step 4. If STATUS indicates a WARN or FAIL condition, use the Up and Down arrow pushbuttons and note the failed self-test condition. Contact the factory or your local Technical Service Center for assistance. Using a PC, establish Access Level 1 communication with the relay. Using your terminal emulation software text capture facility, open an ASCII text file on your PC disk drive to record relay data. With the text file open, execute the relay HISTORY command. With the relay response on the PC screen, note the relay event report numbers associated with the date and time of the misoperation. If the operation involves optional current differential elements, record the differential formal event report using EVE DIF n. Use the EVE n command to view and store the event reports of interest. Use the SER command to view and store the relay sequence of events record for the misoperation. Use the SHO R command to record the active SER settings. Close the text file. Section 10: Serial Port Communications and Commands contains information on establishing serial communications with the relay and more details on the commands above. You can view the stored ASCII text file containing the event information using most standard word processing packages. It is usually helpful to select an 8 or 9 point Courier font to view or print the event data, as this helps line up the data rows vertically on a page.

Review the event and SER information to determine the cause of the misoperation. Section 11: Event Reports and SER Functions contains information and examples to assist with event and SER report review. SEL Application Engineers are available to assist with this review, if necessary. You may be asked to describe, fax, or e-mail the relay information you collected in the steps above as part of this review.
RELAY TROUBLESHOOTING
Inspection Procedure Complete the following procedure before disturbing the relay. After you finish the inspection, proceed to the Troubleshooting Procedure. 1. Measure and record the power supply voltage at the power input terminals. Check to see that the power is on. Do not turn the relay off. Measure and record the voltage at all control inputs. Measure and record the state of all output relays. Troubleshooting Procedure All Front-Panel LEDs Dark 1. Input power not present or fuse is blown. Self-test failure. Cannot See Characters on Relay LCD Screen 1. Relay is de-energized. Check to see if the ALARM contact is closed. LCD contrast is out of adjustment. Use the steps below to adjust the contrast. a. Remove the relay front panel by removing the six front-panel screws. b. Press any front-panel button. The relay should turn on the LCD back lighting. c. Locate the contrast adjust potentiometer adjacent to the serial port connector. d. Use a small screwdriver to adjust the potentiometer. e. Replace the relay front panel. Relay Does Not Respond to Commands From Device Connected to Serial Port 1. Communications device not connected to relay. Relay or communications device at incorrect baud rate or other communication parameter incompatibility, including cabling error. Relay serial port has received an XOFF, halting communications. Type <Ctrl>Q to send the relay an XON and restart communications.

Relay Does Not Respond to Faults 1. Relay improperly set. Improper test source settings. CT or PT input wiring error. Analog input cable between transformer secondary and main board loose or defective. Failed relay self-test.
RELAY CALIBRATION
The SEL-300G Relay is factory-calibrated. If you suspect that the relay is out of calibration, please contact the factory.
