Warnings and legal information
This manual gives guidelines to installation of the DEIF Multi-line 2 generator control and
protection units. It is, however, not a complete installation instruction. Therefore, even if terminal
numbers are shown in the drawings, the drawings are to be used as guidance only.
Installing and operating the Multi-line 2 products implies work with dangerous currents and voltages,
and therefore it should be done by qualified personnel only.
Care must be taken during installation to protect the terminals against static discharges. Once the
unit is installed and connected, these precautions are no longer necessary.
DEIF takes no responsibility for operation or installation of the generator set. If there is any doubt
about how to install or operate the system on which the Multi-line 2 products are measuring, the
company responsible for installation or operation must be contacted.
Standard functions
The GPU is a protection unit for a generator driven by a diesel / gas engine or a turbine. The
GPU will carry out all necessary tasks to protect a generator, regardless of the use of the
generator. This means that the GPU can be used for several application types such as:
- Stand-alone generator
- Multiple generator load sharing control
- Fixed load to mains / base load
The GPU measuring system is true RMS 3-phase measurement of generator voltage, generator
current and BUS (mains) voltage.
Language
German or English language may be chosen via the system menu structure.
Generator protection functions
- Reverse power
- Overcurrent (2 levels)
Protective functions can be selected to activate one of 5 configurable relays.

The GPU monitors the energy production of each unit and it has pulse-outputs for kWh and
kVARh measurement. The number of pulses depends on the nominal output of the generator as
follows:
Pnom < 100 kW → 1 pulse/kW

Pnom 100-1000 kW → 1 pulse/10 kW
Pnom > 1000 kW → 1 pulse/100 kW
The pulse length is 1 s/pulse.
