Secondary Circuits
The SEL-421 is a very low burden load on the CT secondaries and PT
secondaries. For both the CT and PT inputs, the frequency range is 40–65 Hz.
The relay accepts two sets of three-phase currents from power system CT
inputs:
➤ IAW, IBW, and ICW
➤ IAX, IBX, and ICX
For 5 A relays, the rated nominal input current, I
nom
, is 5 A. For 1 A relays,
the rated nominal input current, I
nom
, is 1 A.
Input current for both relay types can range to 20 • I
nom
. The CT burden for
each relay is the following:
➤ 5 A relay: 0.27 VA @ 5A and 2.51 VA @ 15 A
➤ 1 A relay: 0.13 VA @ 1 A and 1.31 VA @ 3A
See the AC Current Inputs (Secondary Circuits) on page U.1.13 for complete
CT input specifications.
