    How to fix GE Multilin 565 Other display that does not light up?
    • J
      jacobthompsonAug 23, 2025
      If the display of your GE Multilin Other does not light up, you should: 1. Check the control power voltage and connections at terminals 62 to 64. 2. Verify that the control voltage is within the limits indicated on the serial number label found on the side of the relay chassis. 3. Check the control power fuses. 4. Ensure that the relay is fully inserted into the drawout case.

    What to do if ground fault protection is not energizing trip relay(s) in GE Multilin Other?
    • L
      Larry JohnsonNov 24, 2025
      To troubleshoot ground fault protection not energizing trip relay(s) in your GE Multilin Other: 1. Verify that ground fault sensing is enabled in setpoints mode. 2. Check that the sensing system selected in setpoints (Residual or Zero sequence) corresponds to your system. 3. For Zero sequence systems, ensure the CT primary ratio entered in setpoints matches the installed CT. 4. Check that the correct ground fault overcurrent pickup has been entered in setpoints. 5. Verify the correct protection curve, pickup level, and curve number are selected for the ground fault level. 6. Ensure the fault current is present longer than the time needed to trip, according to the selected time/overcurrent curve. 7. Check all system wiring. 8. Perform a calibration mode relay test to verify the tr...

    Why is analog input alarm not operating on GE Multilin 565?
    • A
      Adam GarrisonSep 9, 2025
      To troubleshoot why the analog input alarm is not operating on your GE Multilin Other: 1. Verify that the analog input alarm is enabled. 2. Verify that the intended relay has been selected in the setpoints and that the selected relay is correctly wired to the alarm circuit. 3. Read the scaled value of the analog input in the actual values page 2, and ensure that it is above the alarm level setpoint entered in setpoints mode. 4. Read the analog input alarm time delay from the setpoints mode page 5, and ensure that the analog signal is above the trip level for longer than this time.
