2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Features
The P15D is a dual powered non-directional overcurrent and earth fault relay which provides
protection for applications where no external auxiliary power supply is available, or where the auxiliary
supply available does not guarantee the dependability required for protection applications. This relay
is mainly deployed in industrial installations, distribution network substations and most specifically in
Ring Main Unit (RMU) networks for monitoring and protection purposes.
The relay offers supervision functions including measurement, monitoring and recording functions.
Industry and utility protocols are available for transmitting relay data to a supervisory control system
via communication networks. The user-friendly operator interface facilitates easy reading of measured
values and simple configuration of the relay.
