SEL-751A Relay Instruction Manual Date Code 20100129
The relay contains devices sensitive to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).
When working on the relay with the front panel removed, work
surfaces and personnel must be properly grounded or equipment
damage may result.
!
CAUTION
Le relais contient des pièces sensibles aux décharges
électrostatiques. Quand on travaille sur le relais avec les panneaux
avant ou du dessus enlevés, toutes les surfaces et le personnel
doivent être mis à la terre convenablement pour éviter les
dommages à l’équipement.
!
ATTENTION
Equipment components are sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
Undetectable permanent damage can result if you do not use proper ESD
procedures. Ground yourself, your work surface, and this equipment before
removing any cover from this equipment. If your facility is not equipped to
work with these components, contact SEL about returning this device and
related SEL equipment for service.
!
CAUTION
Les composants de cet équipement sont sensibles aux décharges
électrostatiques (DES). Des dommages permanents non-décelables
peuvent résulter de l’absence de précautions contre les DES. Raccordez-
vous correctement à la terre, ainsi que la surface de travail et l’appareil
avant d’en retirer un panneau. Si vous n’êtes pas équipés pour travailler
avec ce type de composants, contacter SEL afin de retourner l’appareil
pour un service en usine.
!
ATTENTION
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with Ray-O-Vac®no. BR2335 or equivalent
recommended by manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
!
CAUTION
There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced.
Replace only with Ray-O-Vac®no. BR2335 or equivalent
recommended by manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according
to the manufacturer’s instructions.
!
CAUTION
Il y a un danger d’explosion si la pile électrique n’est pas
correctement remplacée. Utiliser exclusivement Ray-O-Vac®No.
BR2335 ou un équivalent recommandé par le fabricant. Se
débarrasser des piles usagées suivant les instructions du fabricant.
!
ATTENTION
Class 1 LASER Product. This product uses visible or invisible LASERs based
on model option. Looking into optical connections, fiber ends,
or bulkhead connections can result in hazardous radiation exposure.
!
CAUTION
!
ATTENTION
Produit LASER de Classe 1. Ce produit utilise des LASERS visibles ou
invisibles dépendant des options du modèle. Regarder vers les connecteurs
optiques, les extrémités des fibres oules connecteurs de cloison peut
entraîner une exposition à des rayonnements dangereux.
Use of controls or adjustments, or performance of procedures other than
those specified herein may result in hazardous radiation exposure.
!
CAUTION
!
ATTENTION
L’utilisation de commandes ou de réglages, ou l’application de tests de
fonctionnement différents de ceux décrits ci-après peuvent entraîner
l’exposition à des radiations dangereuses.
Have only qualified personnel service this equipment. If you are not
qualified to service this equipment, you can injure yourself or others,
or cause equipment damage.
!
WARNING

impair operator safety safeguards provided by this equipment.
!
WARNING
L’utilisation de cet appareil suivant des procédures différentes de celles
indiquées dans ce manuel peut désarmer les dispositifs de protection
d’opérateur normalement actifs sur cet équipement.
!
AVERTISSEMENT
To install an option card, the relay must be de-energized and then
reenergized. When reenergized, the relay will reboot. Therefore, de-energize
the protected equipment before installing the option card to prevent
damage to the equipment.
!
WARNING
Pour installer une carte à option, le relais doit être éteint et ensuite
rallumé. Quand il est rallumé, le relais redémarrera. Donc, il faut éteindre
l’équipementprotégé avant d’installer la carte à option pour empêcher des
dégats à l’équipement.
!
AVERTISSEMENT

changed to private passwords at installation. Failure to change each default
password to a private password may allow unauthorized access. SEL shall
not be responsible for any damage resulting from unauthorized access.
!
WARNING
Cet appareil est expédié avec des mots de passe par défaut. A l’installation,
les mots de passe par défaut devront être changés pour des mots de passe
confidentiels. Dans le cas contraire, un accés non-autorisé á l’équipement
peut être possible. SEL décline toute responsabilité pour tout dommage
résultant de cet accés non-autorisé.
!
AVERTISSEMENT
Disconnect or de-energize all external connections before opening this
device. Contact with hazardous voltages and currents inside this device can
cause electrical shock resulting in injury or death.
!
DANGER
Débrancher tous les raccordements externes avant d’ouvrir cet appareil.
Tout contact avec des tensions ou courants internes à l’appareil peut causer
un choc électrique pouvant entraîner des blessures ou la mort.

Preface
Manual Overview
The SEL-751A Feeder Protection Relay Instruction Manual describes
common aspects of feeder relay application and use. It includes the necessary
information to install, set, test, and operate the relay.
An overview of each manual section and topics follows:
Preface. Describes the manual organization and conventions used to
present information.
Section 1: Introduction and Specifications.Describes the basic features
and functions of the SEL-751A; lists the relay specifications.
Section 2: Installation.Describes how to mount and wire the SEL-751A;
illustrates wiring connections for various applications.
Section 3: PC Software. Describes the features, installation methods, and
types of help available with the ACSELERATOR QuickSet®SEL-5030
Software.
Section 4: Protection and Logic Functions. Describes the operating
characteristic of each protection element, using logic diagrams and
text, and explains how to calculate element settings; describes contact
output logic, automation, and report settings.
Section 5: Metering and Monitoring. Describes the operation of each
metering function; describes the monitoring functions.
Section 6: Settings. Describes how to enter and record settings for basic
protection, voltage-based protection, and RTD-based protection.
Section 7: Communications. Describes how to connect the SEL-751A to a
PC for communication; shows serial port pinouts; lists and defines
serial port commands. Describes the communications port interfaces
and protocols supported by the relay for serial and Ethernet.
Section 8: Front-Panel Operations. Explains the features and use of the
front panel, including front-panel command menu, default displays,
and automatic messages.
Section 9: Analyzing Events. Describes front-panel LED operation, trip-
type front-panel messages, event summary data, standard event
reports, and Sequential Events Recorder (SER) report.
Section 10: Testing and Troubleshooting. Describes protection element
test procedures, relay self-test, and relay troubleshooting.
Appendix A: Firmware and Manual Versions.Lists the current relay
firmware version and details differences between the current and
previous versions. Provides a record of changes made to the manual
since the initial release.
Appendix B: Firmware Upgrade Instructions.Describes the procedure to
update the firmware stored in flash memory.
Appendix C: SEL Communications Processors.Provides examples of how
to use the SEL-751A with the SEL-2032, SEL-2030, and SEL-2020
Communications Processors for total substation automation solutions.

Conventions
There are many ways to communicate with the SEL-751A. The three primary
methods are:
➤Using a command line interface on a PC terminal emulation
window.
➤Using the front-panel menus and pushbuttons.
➤Using ACSELERATOR QuickSet.
The instructions in this manual indicate these options with specific font and
formatting attributes. The following table lists these conventions.
Typographic Conventions
Example Description
STATUS Commands typed at a command line interface on a PC.
<Enter> Single keystroke on a PC keyboard.
<Ctrl+D> Multiple/combination keystroke on a PC keyboard.
Start > Settings PC dialog boxes and menu selections.
The > character indicates submenus.
{CLOSE} Relay front-panel pushbuttons.
ENABLE Relay front- or rear-panel labels.
Main > Meters Relay front-panel LCD menus and relay responses.
