BE1-87G Variable Percentage Differential relays typically trip a lockout relay (86) which in turn trips the generator breaker and, when present, the field and/or neutral breakers.
(I (five amperes for sensing input type one or one ampere for sensing input type two). The BE1-87G compares the protected zone sensed input and output currents. The lesser of the two sensed current levels becomes the restraining current.

SECTION 2 • HUMAN MACHINE INTERFACE (Controls And Indicators) DESCRIPTION Table 2-1 lists and briefly describes the BE1-87G Variable Percentage Differential Relay operator controls and indicators. Reference the call-out letters to Figure 2-1. Table 2-1. BE1-87G Controls and Indicators (Refer to Figure 2-1)
The functional block diagram in Figure 3-1 illustrates the overall operation of the BE1-87G Variable Percentage Differential Relay. Note that it may be configured to monitor either single-phase or three- phase.
Stabilizing reactors are current rated based on time and ambient temperature (refer to Section 1, Specifications ). See Figures 3-2 and 3-3 for the stabilizing reactor impedance characteristics.

SECTION 4 • INSTALLATION GENERAL When not shipped as part of a control or switchgear panel, the relays are shipped in sturdy cartons to prevent damage during transit. Immediately upon receipt of a relay, check the model and style number against the requisition and packing list to see that they agree.
Stabilizing Reactor The stabilizing reactor for a three-phase relay is mounted on the rear of the relay. For projection mounting or convenience, the stabilizing reactor can be removed and relocated. Rewire in accordance with the procedures and illustrations in this section. To remove the stabilizing reactor, remove four screws holding the reactor to the mounting plate.
Figure 4-7. S1 Case And Reactor, Outline Dimensions (Semi-Flush Mounting) CONNECTIONS Incorrect wiring may result in damage to the relay. Be sure to check model and style number against the options listed in the Style Number Identification Chart before connecting and energizing a particular relay. Relays manufactured prior to July 22, 1991 (EIA date code symbol 9129 and previous) do NOT have case jumpers between terminals 7 and 8 (single phase units).

#2 has a C classification. The T classification indicates that the CT has significant secondary leakage inductance which somewhat degrades the transient performance. This is a concern during motor starting because a slowly decaying offset component develops in at least one phase. 5-12 BE1-87G - Testing And Setting...
SECTION 6 • MAINTENANCE GENERAL BE1-87G Variable Percentage Differential Relays require no preventive maintenance other than a periodic operational test (refer to Section 5 for the operational test procedures). If factory repair is desired, contact the Customer Service Department of the Power Systems Group, Basler Electric, for a return authorization number prior to shipping.
