Overview

This course explores full utilization of SEL Motor Relays to protect induction motors within an industrial setting. In-depth, hands-on application and settings examples will show students how they can implement complete motor protection and control. Students will gain a comprehensive understanding of motor protection application philosophies, including the patented Thermal Protection Model, which is integrated into the SEL-749M and SEL-701 Motor Relays.

Course topics include:

  • Motor protection principles
  • Thermal protection model
  • Thermal element relay setting, testing, and commissioning
  • Motor control, including reduced voltage and capacitor start applications
  • Motor protection settings
  • Motor abnormal conditions and fault protection
  • Start reports, metering, and monitoring

What You Will Learn

Attendees (in groups of two) will gain hands-on experience in communicating, setting, commissioning, retrieving reports, and performing motor control functions by working directly with the SEL-749M and SEL-701 Motor Relays.

At the conclusion of this course, students can:

  • Communicate with the relays through the front-panel and serial port interfaces
  • Calculate and apply settings for the Thermal Model and Thermal Overload Protection Element
  • Retrieve and analyze motor trends, start reports, and event reports
  • Determine the best motor relay options and settings to meet varied motor protection and RTD requirements in order to maximize motor performance and safety
  • Apply methods learned in class to troubleshoot and commission motor protection
