Siemens Siprotec 5 7UT86 Transformer Differential Protection Relays

The transformer differential protection SIPROTEC 7UT86 is a universal protection, control, and automation device on the basis of the SIPROTEC 5 system. It is especially designed for the protection of three winding transformers. It is the main protection for the transformers and contains many other protection and monitoring functions. The additional protection functions can also be used as backup protection for protected downstream objects (e.g. cables, line). At this, it supports also the modular availability of the hardware.

The device supports all SIPROTEC 5 system characteristics. It enables future-oriented system solutions with high investment security and low operating costs.Main function:1 Differential protection (standard) with add-on stabilizations; Up to 3 differential ground-fault protection For autotransformer applications 2 differential protection functions in a function group, autotransformer can be used.Useful measuring point:-6 three-pole current measuring Points,-4 one-pole current measuring points,-3 four-pole voltage measuring Points,-3 one-pole voltage measuring points-expandable to 4 sidesInputs and outputs:-2 predefined standard variants with-12 current transformers,-4 voltage transformers-11 to 23 binary inputs,-18 to 34 binary outputs Hardware flexibility:Flexible adaptable and expandable I/O-quantity structure within the scope of the modular SIPROTEC 5-building blocks building blocks.Width of housing:1/3 x 19” to 2/1 x 19”

All functions can be configured freely with DIGSI 5. For the application of some of the functions, you require the appropriate number of free function points within the device. The function point calculator in the online configurator provides support in determining the required number of function points for your device.
