Settings
Section 12: Settings in the SEL-400 Series Relays Instruction Manual describes
common platform settings. This section contains tables of relay settings for the
SEL-421 Relay.
The relay hides some settings based upon other settings. If you set an enable set-
ting to OFF, for example, the relay hides all settings associated with that enable
setting. This section does not explain rules for hiding settings; these rules are dis-
cussed in the applications sections of the instruction manual where appropriate.
The settings prompts in this section are similar to the ASCII terminal and
ACSELERATOR QuickSet SEL-5030 software prompts. The prompts in this sec-
tion are unabbreviated and show all possible setting options.
For information on using settings in protection and automation, see the examples
in Section 6: Protection Applications Examples. The section contains informa-
tion on the following settings classes.

ual for a complete description of alias settings. Table 8.1 lists the default alias
settings for the SEL-421.
Isolate the relay trip circuits while
changing settings. When changing
settings for multiple classes, it is pos-
sible to be in an intermediate state
that will cause an unexpected trip.
