    Introduction and Specifications System Features and Benefits The SEL-734W processes data from one or three SEL-WCS devices and from the CPT to implement a variety of cap bank control strategies. The SEL-734W uses current measured independently from three SEL-WCS devices and one measured voltage to provide three-phase switching decisions and monitoring.

    The Voltage Phases setting is used to allow the SEL-734W to calculate power, VAs, and VARs for all three phases when the SEL-734W is only sensing a single- phase voltage. This is done by reusing the magnitude of the measured voltage phase, but rotating by ±120 degrees to get the two missing voltage phases.

    The SEL-WCS transmits current magnitude intermittently. The SEL-734W inter- prets that data and creates a waveform that is recognized by the SEL-734W as an analog signal. This means that all of your metered currents are reported as a per- fect sin wave based on the last received rms value from the SEL-WCS.

    (amplitude and spectral content). The SEL-734W receives the information and repeatedly uses it until a new update is received. The SEL-734W supports all the same functions of the SEL-734B, such as metering, power quality and event analysis, waveform capture, Sequence of Events (SOE) reporting, and capacitor bank control operation.
  • Page 42: Metering

    Because of the metering data differences between the SEL-734B and SEL-734W, the power quality given by them are different. SEL does not recommend that the SEL-734W be used as a revenue meter or a device that you expect to capture quick changes or transients.
