February 2001 CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION OF BASLER ELECTRIC COMPANY, HIGHLAND, IL. IT IS LOANED FOR CONFIDENTIAL USE, SUBJECT TO RETURN ON REQUEST, AND WITH THE MUTUAL UNDERSTANDING THAT IT WILL NOT BE USED IN ANY MANNER DETRIMENTAL TO THE INTEREST OF BASLER ELECTRIC COMPANY.
The BE1-79S Reclosing Relay will provide a single reclosure signal following a trip as an attempt in restoring power and minimizing system disturbances.
Test points and circuit components are accessible by removal of the individual printed circuit boards from the relay cradle and using an extender board (Basler part number 9 1129 30 101) to test or troubleshoot. An available test plug (Basler part number 10095) permits the relay to be tested in place without disturbing external control circuit wiring.

SECTION 2 • FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION GENERAL The functional description contained in this section applies to the BE1-79S Single Shot Reclosing Relays with all combinations of available options. The reclosing relay, functionally shown in Figure 2-1, provides automatic reclosure of circuit breakers that have been tripped by a protective relay.
Figure 2-1. Functional Block Diagram POWER SUPPLY Basler Electric enhanced the power supply design for unit case relays. This new design created three, wide range power supplies that replace the four previous power supplies. Style number identifiers for these power supplies have not been changed so that customers may order the same style numbers that they ordered previously.

If the relay fails to function, and factory repair is desired, contact the Customer Service Department of the Power Systems Group, Basler Electric, for a return authorization number prior to shipping. Due to the fact that most components are on conformally coated printed circuit boards, in-house replacement of individual components may be difficult and should not be attempted unless appropriate equipment and adequately trained personnel are available.
Added Option 2-D when Option 2-S is referred to in the manual. Added new power supply information to Specifications and Section 3 starting with “Basler Electric enhanced the power supply design...” Corrected Figure 2-1 and Figure 4-9 by making 52b a NC output.
