    The AQ-F205 feeder protection device is a member of the AQ 200 product line. However, while the hardware and the software are modular in the AQ 200 product line, AQ-F205 is provided as a fixed feeder protection device with a factory set of I/O and functionality. This manual describes the specific application of the AQ-F205 feeder protection device.

  • Page 59 For the measurements to be correct the user needs to ensure that the measurement signals are connected to the correct inputs, that the current direction is connected to the correct polarity, and that the scaling is set according to the nominal values of the current transformer. © Arcteq Relays Ltd IM00013...

This means that the construction and content of the device’s hardware are fixed. The device includes the CPU module (which consists of the CPU, a number of inputs and outputs, and the power supply) as well as one current measurement module, one voltage measurement module, a digital input module (DI8), and digital output module (DO5).
