The latch control switch feature of this relay replaces latching relays. Traditional latching relays maintain their output contact state when set. The SEL-351A latch bit retains memory even when control power is lost. If the latch bit is set to a programmable output contact and control power is lost, the state of the latch bit is stored in nonvolatile memory but the output contact will go to its de-energized state.
SEL-351A. Reclosing Relay Use a latch control switch to enable/disable the reclosing relay in the SEL-351A. In this example, a SCADA contact is connected to optoisolated Enable/Disable input IN104. Each pulse of the SCADA contact changes the state of the Setting Example reclosing relay.

Figure 11.2. Demand Metering The SEL-351A updates demand values approximately every two seconds. Updating and Storage The relay stores peak demand values to nonvolatile storage once per day (it overwrites the previous stored value if it is exceeded). Should it lose control power, the relay will restore the peak demand values it saved at 23:50 hours on the previous day.
When the energy meter reaches 99999 MWh or 99999 MVARh, it starts at zero. In firmware versions released prior to November 2002, the SEL-351A energy meter registered dollar signs ($$) after reaching the upper metering limit. SEL-351A Relay...

Testing and Troubleshooting Overview This section provides guidelines for determining and establishing test routines for the SEL-351A Relay. Included are discussions on testing philosophies, methods, and tools. Relay self-tests and troubleshooting procedures are shown at the end of the section.
This helps ensure that you receive a relay that operates correctly and accurately. Commissioning tests should verify that the relay is properly connected to the power system and all auxiliary equipment. SEL-351A Relay Instruction Manual Date Code 20080213...
Page 507
The basis of this testing philosophy is simple: If the relay is correctly set and connected, is measuring properly, and no self-test has failed, there is no reason to test it further. Instruction Manual SEL-351A Relay Date Code 20080213 Courtesy of NationalSwitchgear.com...

At SEL, we recommend that maintenance tests on SEL relays be limited under the guidelines provided above. The time saved may be spent analyzing event data and thoroughly testing those systems that require more attention. SEL-351A Relay Instruction Manual Date Code 20080213...

Commands. Devices with embedded processing capability can use these messages to enable and accept unsolicited binary Fast SER messages from the SEL-351A Relay. SEL relays and communications processors have two separate data streams that share the same serial port. The normal serial interface consists of ASCII character commands and reports that are intelligible to people using a terminal or terminal emulation package.

SEL-351A to transmit unsolicited binary Fast SER messages. Step 3. When SER records are triggered in the SEL-351A, the relay responds with an unsolicited binary Fast SER message. If this message has a valid checksum, it must be acknowledged by sending an acknowledge message with the same response number as contained in the original message.
This function enables the SEL-351A to begin sending unsolicited data to the Enable Unsolicited device which sent the enable message, if the SEL-351A has such data to Fast SER Data transfer. The message format for function code 01 is shown in Table J.1.

Appendix L SEL Synchrophasors Overview The SEL-351A provides Phasor Measurement Control Unit (PMCU) capabilities when connected to an IRIG-B time source with an accuracy of ±10 μs or better. Synchrophasor data are available via the MET PM ASCII command and the SEL Fast Message Unsolicited Write message.
Settings on page L.8. Synchrophasor measurement cannot be enabled if global setting PTCONN = DELTA. The SEL-351A timekeeping function generates status Relay Word bits that are important for synchrophasor measurement. See Synchrophasor Relay Word Bits on page L.11.
Synchrophasor values are available for the full frequency range of the SEL-351A. Figure L.1 Phase Reference The TSOK Relay Word bit asserts when the SEL-351A has determined that the IRIG-B time source has sufficient accuracy and the synchrophasor data meets the specified accuracy. Synchrophasors are still measured if the time source threshold is not met, as indicated by Relay Word bit TSOK = logical 0.
The SEL-351A responds to configuration block request messages regardless of the present transmit status, waiting only as long as it takes for any partially sent messages to be completely transmitted.
(if an acknowledgement was requested) and begin transmitting synchrophasors. If the requested message period is not permitted, the SEL-351A will respond with a bad data message (if an acknowledge was requested), and will not transmit any synchrophasor data.
