Description

GE / Alstom F60 Feeder Protection System

GE / Alstom F60 Feeder protection Numerical Relay provide advanced protection with flexibility, programmability and communications for maximum system reliability. Our highly skilled engineers and technicians understand distribution feeder principles and the sources of faults on overhead and underground distribution feeders. They apply their knowledge to the design and manufacture of some of the most advanced protection relays and systems in the world.
Major faults occurring in the distribution system such as arc flash, incipient cable splice fault, high impedance fault and others, must be sensed quickly and isolated immediately to prevent hazards to the general public and personnel. Learn how GE’s 8 Series, 350 and P40 Agile solutions provide early fault detection and warning in this spotlight application.

The F60, a member of the UR Family of protection relays, provides high performance feeder protection, control, monitoring and metering in an integrated, economical, and compact package. The F60 includes GE Multilins unique high-impedance fault detection for fast and reliable detection of downed conductors.

GE / Alstom F60 Feeder protection Numerical Relay Key Benefits

• The most flexible protection and control device for distribution feeder applications
• Advanced IEC 61850 Ed. 1 and Ed. 2 certified implementation, complete settings via SCL files and flexible process bus support (IEC 61850-9-2LE or IEC 61850-9-2 Hardfiber) ensures interoperability, device managing optimization and reduced cost of ownership
• Routable GOOSE (R-GOOSE) enables GOOSE messages going beyond the substation, which enables wide area protection and control applications
• Unique and secure downed conductor detection
• Flexible load encroachment allows secure operation during heavy load conditions
• Advanced automation capabilities
• Application flexibility with multiple I/O options including high density I/O, programmable logic, modularity, and specific customization
• Robust network security enabling critical intrastructure protection
• High-speed inter-relay communications reducing relay-to-relay wiring and costs
• Phasor Measurement Unit (synchrophasor) according to IEEE® C37.118 (2011) and IEC® 61850-90-5 support
• An integrated large, full color display, provides real-time visualization and control of the protected bay, via a bay mimic as well as annunciator functionality and graphical visualization of phasors
