Introduction

About this manual

This manual provides the user with basic information on the combined overcurrent
and earth-fault relay REJ 525 and presents detailed instructions on how to use the
Human-Machine Interface (HMI) of the relay, also known as the Man-Machine
Interface (MMI). In addition to the instructive part, a short chapter on the service of
the relay has been included.

The use of the relay

The REJ 525 is intended for three-phase overcurrent protection and non-directional
earth-fault protection in medium voltage distribution networks but can also be used
for protection of generators, motors and transformers.
The REJ 525 can also be used in applications requiring single- or two-phase
overcurrent protection.
The REJ 525 is based on a microprocessor environment. A self-supervision system
continuously monitors the operation of the electronics and the software.
The HMI includes a Liquid Crystal Display (LCD) which makes the local use of the
relay safe and easy.
Local control of the relay can be carried out using a portable computer connected to
the front connector and remote control via the rear connector connected to the
distribution automation system through the serial interface and the fibre-optic bus.
