Section 1 Introduction and Specifications Introduction The SEL-587Z Relay is a high-impedance differential relay operating on the high-impedance principle. The unit provides three independent high- impedance elements, three independent overcurrent elements, two optoisolated inputs, four programmable output contacts, one alarm output contact, and two serial communication ports.
Introduction and Specifications Overview Overview Instruction This instruction manual applies to the SEL-587Z. If you are unfamiliar with the relay, read the following sections in the outlined order. Manual Section 1: Introduction and Specifications. Provides a brief overview of the capabilities and general specifications of the relay.
Overcurrent element pickup settings and operating characteristics are independent from the differential element settings. When you use the SEL-587Z for transformer protection, the instantaneous overcurrent elements provide phase and ground overcurrent protection for bushing faults, while the time-overcurrent elements provide phase and ground protection for coordinating with other system protection.
Introduction and Specifications SEL-587Z Functions Programmable OGIC ® The SEL-587Z is equipped with SEL control equations that allow you to design a custom tripping scheme. SEL control equation functions OGIC Output Contacts include timers, local and remote bits, tripping, event report triggering, and relay output contact control.

Hot load pickup inrush occurs when a distribution circuit is energized shortly after being de-energized, such as in a feeder trip-reclose cycle. Hot load pickup inrush current that the SEL-587Z may see consists primarily of motor starting current from motor loads, incandescent and fluorescent lighting load inrush, and resistive heating element inrush.

Introduction This section describes the various components of control logic available in the SEL-587Z Relay, both fixed and configurable. For ease of applying the relay, certain commonly used logic functions, known as fixed logic, are already programmed in the relay. Although fixed logic cannot be changed, most of the fixed logic includes options that provide flexibility for different applications.

Serial Port Communications Introduction The SEL-587Z Relay is equipped with two serial communications ports, one on the rear panel and one on the front panel. One example of using these ports is to connect the front serial port to a computer for local communications and the rear port to a modem for remote communications.
2400 bps Data Bits Parity Stop Bits To change the port settings, use the serial port SET P command (see SEL-587Z Settings Sheets Section 5: Setting the Relay ) or the front-panel {SET} pushbutton. Port Connections The 9-pin port connector is shown in Figure 6.1.
Contact the factory for more information. For long-distance communications up to 500 meters and for electrical isolation of communications ports, use the SEL-2800 or SEL-2810 Fiber- Optic Transceivers. Contact SEL for details about these devices. SEL-587Z Instruction Manual Date Code 20020903...

While you are in Access Level 2, the relay recognizes any of the commands available in the lower access levels. Hardware SEL-587Z relays equipped with the EIA-232 port support RTS/CTS hardware handshaking.

10.15 Commissioning Testing Commissioning Testing SEL performs a complete functional check and calibration of each SEL-587Z before shipment so that your relay operates correctly and accurately. You should perform commissioning tests to verify proper connection of the relay to the power system and all auxiliary equipment: Check control signal inputs and outputs.
Test all relay features/power system components that did not operate during an actual fault within the past maintenance interval. You can use the SEL-587Z reporting features as maintenance tools. Periodically compare the relay METER command output to other meter readings on a line to verify that the relay measures currents and voltages correctly and accurately.
Testing and Troubleshooting 10.17 Relay Self-Tests Relay Self-Tests The SEL-587Z runs a variety of self-tests. The relay takes the following corrective actions for out-of-tolerance conditions (see Table 10.6): The relay disables protection elements and trip/close logic. All output contacts are de-energized. The EN front-panel LED is extinguished.

The establishment of debounce time and assertion level. Instantaneous Meter Type of meter data presented by the SEL-587Z Relay that includes the present values measured at the relay ac inputs. The word “Instantaneous” is used to differentiate these values from the measurements presented by the demand and other meter types.
Page 267
Peak Demand Metering Maximum demand and a time stamp for phase currents, negative-sequence and zero-sequence currents, and powers. The SEL-587Z Relay stores peak demand values and the date and time these occurred to nonvolatile storage once per day, overwriting the previously stored value if the new value is larger.

Supervisory control and data acquisition. A function that verifies the correct operation of a critical device subsystem Self-Test and indicates detection of an out-of-tolerance condition. The SEL-587Z Relay has self-tests that validate the relay power supply, microprocessor, memory, and other critical systems.
