Application
7SR45 Argus Self Powered/Dual Powered Relay is a numerical
overcurrent and earth fault protection relay primarily
intended for secondary distribution electrical networks.
The 7SR45 Argus Self Powered/Dual Powered Non-
Directional Overcurrent and Earth Fault Relay is designed to
operate with/without an auxiliary supply. The 7SR45 Dual
Powered Non-Directional Overcurrent and Earth Fault relay is
powered primarily from the auxiliary voltage even though all
other power sources are available.
In the absence of auxiliary voltage, the relay is powered by
CT input.
The relay offers definite-time and inverse-time overcurrent
and earth fault protection functions in accordance to IEC
and ANSI standards.
7SR45 Argus Self Powered/Dual Powered Non-Directional
Overcurrent and Earth Fault Relay are built in with a
capacitor discharge pulse output for low-energy trip coil of
the circuit breaker. Changeover binary outputs are also
available for trip via an auxiliary powered shunt trip coil.
50/51 Phase Overcurrent Fault
50 INST/DTL and 51 IDMTL/DTL elements provide overcurrent
protection, each with independent settings for pickup
current, time-multiplier (51), and time-delays. User can
select IEC or ANSI time current characteristics.
The IDMT curve has a user selectable reset characteristic,
either DTL or IEC or ANSI decaying to improve the grading
with electromechanical protection.
50G/51G/50N/51N Measured/Derived Earth Fault
Two earth fault measurement modes are available. One
mode directly measures the earth current from an
independent CT (50G/51G) and the second mode derives
the residual current internally from the 3 line CTs (50N/51N).
50G/50N INST/DTL and 51G/51N IDMTL/DTL elements
provide earth fault protection, each with independent
settings for pickup current, time-multiplier (51G/51N), and
time-delays. User can select IEC or ANSI time current
characteristics.
The IDMT curve has a user programmable reset characteristic
either DTL or IEC or ANSI decaying to improve grading with
electromechanical protection.

Data Acquisition -
Via Communication Interface

Sequence of Event Records (Event Log)

Up to 100 events can be stored and time tagged to 1 ms
resolution. The events are stored on first-in-first-out basis.
The events are available through the communication
interface.

Fault Records (Trip Log)

The last 10 fault records are displayed on the relay fascia and
are also available through the communication interface with
time and date of trip, measured quantities, and type of fault.

Real Time Clock

The time and date can be set and is maintained while the
relay is de-energised by a coin cell battery.

Communications
The relay offers a USB port as a standard on the front of all
units. All of the relay functions can be set on a PC using
Reydisp Evolution software via the USB port. The connection
is made with a USB cable and operates with a ‘plug and play’
connection, so no pre-setting of the relay is required.

In the dual powered relays, the front port can be switched

off or set to use either the Modbus RTU or IEC 60870-5-103
protocols for testing purposes. IEC60870-5-103 protocol is a
default in the Self Powered Relays.

NOTE:
Reydisp Evolution software will work with the relay only
when the USB port is configured to the IEC 60870-5-103
protocol in the dual powered relays.

A rear RS485 electrical connection is optionally available on

the relay for system interface connections.

 Construction User Interface
The relay is housed in a non draw-out 4U high, size 4 case.

The rear connection comprises of user friendly pluggable

type terminals for pulse and flag output, binary inputs,
binary outputs, RS485 communication and auxiliary input.

The CT terminals are suitable for ring type lug connection to

provide a secure and reliable termination.
