Commissioning Tests
Step 23. When it is safe to do so, energize the transformer.
Step 24. Verify the following ac quantities by using the front-panel
METER > Fundamental or serial port METER command.
➢ Phase current magnitudes should be nearly equal.
➢ Phase current angles should be balanced, have proper
phase rotation, and have the appropriate phase
relationship to the phase voltages.
Step 25. If your relay is equipped with voltage inputs, check the
following:
➢ Phase voltage magnitudes should be nearly equal.
➢ Phase voltage phase angles should be balanced and
have proper phase rotation.
The SEL-787 is now ready for continuous service.

Phase Current Measuring Accuracy
Step 1. Connect the current source to the relay, as shown in
Figure 10.4.

Step 2. Using the front-panel SET/SHOW or the serial port SHO
command, record the CTR1 and PHROT setting values.
Step 3. Set the phase current angles to apply balanced three-phase
currents in accordance with the PHROT setting. Refer to
Figure 10.2.
Step 4. Set each phase current magnitude equal to the values listed in
Column 1 of Table 10.3. Use the front-panel to view the phase
current values. The relay should display the applied current
magnitude times the CTR1 setting.
