1.1 Overall Operation

1.1 Overall Operation
The digital SIPROTEC 7SK80 motor protection is equipped with a powerful microprocessor. It allows all tasks
to be processed digitally, from the acquisition of measured quantities to sending commands to circuit breakers.
Figure 1-1 shows the basic structure of the 7SK80.
Analog Inputs
The measuring inputs (MI) convert the currents and voltages coming from the measuring transformers and
adapt them to the level appropriate for the internal processing of the device. The device provides 4 current
transformers and - depending on the model - additionally 3 voltage transformers. Three current inputs serve for
the input of the phase currents, another current input (I

The optional voltage transformers can either be used to input 3 phase-to-Ground voltages or 2 phase-to-phase
voltages and the displacement voltage (open delta voltage) or any other voltages. It is also possible to connect
two phase-to-phase voltages in open delta connection.
