What can cause the SR735 relay to blink red?

The GE Digital Energy SR735 relay blinks red when the Phase Pickup or Ground Pickup indicators are active.
- Phase Pickup Blinking: Occurs when the current in any phase exceeds the PHASE PICKUP control setting. If the condition persists, the relay will time out and trip. - Ground Pickup Blinking: Occurs when ground (neutral) current exceeds the GROUND PICKUP control setting. If this overcurrent persists, the relay will time out and trip.
In both cases, if the fault continues, the relay will trip, and the corresponding TRIP 51-A/B/C (for phase faults) or TRIP 51-N (for ground faults) indicator will turn on.

They can be reset by the front panel CLEAR button. A special feature of the 735/737 named "Trip Record" is the ability of the relay to sequentially display the last five causes of trips. To display the trips, press and hold the reset key.
1.1.3 Theory of Operation A block diagram of the 735/737 hardware is shown on the following page. A 16-bit single chip microcomputer handles data acquisition, input/output and control. Program memory, data RAM, 10 bit A/D and UART are internal to the microcomputer.

2.1.1 Mounting The 735 is a drawout relay that slides into the panel mounted case. A hinged door covers the front panel controls to allow protected access of the setting selector switches. This allows pickup levels and time delays to be quickly set or modified. The figure below shows the physical dimensions of the 735/737.

Wiring Different connection schemes are possible depending on the application. Typical connections are shown on the following page where the 735/737 is used as primary protection. Ensure that the wiring diagram number on the drawout chassis label matches the number of the instruction manual wiring diagram. Terminals are numbered in rows.
Page 23
Use the labels on the back of the relay to identify terminals with a row letter and position number. Terminal numbers and symbols on the back of the relay should match the wiring diagram in this manual. FIGURE 2–8: Typical Wiring Diagram 735/737 FEEDER PROTECTION RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 2–7...

CHAPTER 2: INSTALLATION The following two figures show suggested wiring when the 735/737 is used as backup protection in conjunction with other relays. Select the appropriate scheme depending on whether ground sensing is by the residual method using the phase CTs or by the core balance method using a separate CT.
Typical primary/backup CT wiring is shown in the previous section. Normally the 735 will be connected for residual ground fault sensing as shown in the ALTERNATIVE CT WIRING section of FIGURE 2–8: Typical Wiring Diagram on page 2–7. When the drawout chassis is removed, the CT secondaries are automatically connected together by the internal shorting fingers to prevent dangerous high voltages from open CTs.
The SERVICE relay is failsafe; that is, the contacts are normally picked up and drop out whenever the 735/737 detects an internal fault or control power is lost. These contacts are Form C. Contact ratings are shown in Section 1.3.3: Outputs. Connect the SERVICE relay output to a warning device such as a SCADA monitor.

Arrangements should be made to check or replace the relay. Phase Pickup When the current in any phase exceeds the PHASE PICKUP control setting, this indicator flashes. If the condition persists, the 735/737 will time out and trip with the TRIP 51-A/B/C indicator on. Ground Pickup...

Definite Time BLOCK INSTANTANEOUS ON AUTORECLOSE: Factory Default: Disabled When the 735 is used in conjunction with an autoreclose scheme, it may be desirable to block instantaneous trips after an autoreclosure operation. This prevents nuisance trips due to the normally high inrush currents typically experienced in these situations and allows a coordinated clearance of permanent faults by fuses or inverse-time overcurrent relays.

RS485 hardware. Using RS485, up to 32 slaves can be daisy-chained together on a single communication channel. Due to address limitations only 31 735/737s can be put on a single channel. However, another model of relay could be added, increasing the number to 32.
Data Frame Format and Rate One data frame of an asynchronous transmission to or from a 735/737 consists of 1 start bit, 8 data bits, and 1 stop bit to produce a 10 bit data frame. This is important for transmission through modems at high bit rates (11 bit data frames are not supported by some modems at bit rates of greater than 300 bps).
If a 735/737 Modbus slave device receives a transmission in which an error is indicated by the CRC-16 calculation, the slave device will not respond to the transmission. A CRC-16...

CHAPTER 4: MODBUS COMMUNICATIONS Supported Modbus Functions 4.2.1 Description The following functions are supported by the 735/737: • 03: Read Setpoints • 04:Read Actual Values • 05: Execute Operation • 06: Store Single Setpoint (test/simulation) • 07: Read Device Status •...
The maximum number of actual values that can be read in one transmission is 60 in the 735/737. The slave response to this function code is the slave address, function code, a count of the number of data bytes to follow, the data itself, and the CRC.
Function Code 05: Execute Operation Modbus Implementation: Force Single Coil 735/737 Implementation: Execute Operation This function code allows the master to request the 735/737 to perform specific operations. The operations that can be performed by the 735/737 are as follows: Table 4–4:...

Page 66
Modbus “registers” are 16 bit (two byte) values transmitted high order byte first. Thus all 735/737 setpoints are sent as two bytes. The slave device response to this function code is to echo the slave address, function code, starting address, the number of setpoints loaded, and the CRC.

4.2.8 Error Responses When a 735/737 detects an error other than a CRC error, a response will be sent to the master. The most significant bit of the FUNCTION CODE byte will be set to 1 (that is, the function code sent from the slave will be equal to the function code sent from the master plus 128).
4.3.1 Modbus Memory Map The data stored in the 735/737 is grouped as actual values and setpoints. Setpoints can be read and written by a master computer. Actual values can only be read. All setpoints and actual values are stored as two byte values. That is, each address listed in the memory map is the address of a two byte value.

A PC equipped with an RS232/RS485 convertor and the Setup program can be used to establish communications with the 735 or 737. See Sections 2.2.4 Communications and 3.5 Setup Program. With the use of the setup program or Relaycom, custom scheme setpoints can be set and tested and the actual values screens can be used to monitor metered data and pre-trip data.
6.1.4 Phase Current Reading Accuracy Test The 735/737 relay must read the phase current signals input from the CTs correctly to provide the instantaneous and timed overcurrent protection. To determine if the relay is reading correctly set the phase pickup dial to 100% of the CT primary. Use the 3 Phase Test Set to set the phase current injected into the phases.
The timer on the 3-phase Test Set should be setup to start when current is injected and stop when the trip or auxiliary (if assigned) relay activates. Verify that the INST 50 phase A, B, or C (whichever phase tested) LED has been activated and latched. 735/737 FEEDER PROTECTION RELAY – INSTRUCTION MANUAL 6–3...

Questions and answers
What can cause the SR735 relay to blink red?
The GE Digital Energy SR735 relay blinks red when the Phase Pickup or Ground Pickup indicators are active.
- Phase Pickup Blinking: Occurs when the current in any phase exceeds the PHASE PICKUP control setting. If the condition persists, the relay will time out and trip.
- Ground Pickup Blinking: Occurs when ground (neutral) current exceeds the GROUND PICKUP control setting. If this overcurrent persists, the relay will time out and trip.
In both cases, if the fault continues, the relay will trip, and the corresponding TRIP 51-A/B/C (for phase faults) or TRIP 51-N (for ground faults) indicator will turn on.
