SEL-2414

Transformer Monitor

Complete control and monitoring solution

to protect critical substation assets
• Track transformer life with IEEE or IEC thermal models and through-
fault monitoring.
• Monitor load tap positions and control statuses to ensure stable
voltage and load tap changer (LTC) integrity.
• Operate transformer cooling stages and fans to minimize thermal wear.
• Integrate with SCADA systems and distributed control systems (DCSs)
using communications protocols, such as IEC 61850 Edition 2, DNP3,
and Modbus.
• Select from flexible I/O options to fit your application requirements.
Key Features
Transformer Temperature and Through-Fault Monitoring
Track transformer loss of life using the IEEE C57.91-2011 or IEC 60076-7:2018
thermal model for various winding configurations. Through-fault monitoring
helps track events that cause mechanical and thermal stress to transformers.

Load Tap Position and Control Monitoring

Monitor as many as 32 tap positions and the raise and lower controls to
ensure the output voltage remains stable. If a tap position fails to change
or an unexpected tap position occurs, the SEL-2414 asserts an alarm.

Cooling Bank Control

Control cooling banks to operate appropriate cooling stages using calculated
hot spot temperatures. Exercise the cooling banks to eliminate maintenance
surprises during critical load conditions. Separately control fan banks to
balance cooling duty cycles and increase the life of cooling systems.

Flexible Logic Programming

Easily program the SEL-2414 with powerful logic, math, timer, counter, and
edge-trigger functions. Implement logic with SELogic® control equations or
standard logic gates using the acSELerator QuickSet® SEL-5030 Software
graphical logic editor.

Flexible I/O Configuration

Select I/O options to meet your system requirements. Options include digital
or analog outputs; digital, analog, resistance temperature detector (RTD), and
ac current inputs; and ac voltage inputs.

Easy Integration With SCADA

Flexible communications options provide easy integration with SCADA
systems and DCSs. Choose from Ethernet (Modbus TCP, DNP3 LAN/WAN,
IEC 61850 Edition 2, the Parallel Redundancy Protocol, Telnet, FTP, and
Simple Network Time Protocol) and serial (Modbus and DNP3 RTU) protocols.

Event Analysis
Conduct postevent analysis more efficiently with detailed event records.
The SEL-2414 has a Sequential Events Recorder (SER) that stores up to
512 SER reports of digital input transitions, time-tagged to the nearest
millisecond. You can send the SER data to an automation controller or
computer for system analysis.

Reliability in Harsh Environments

Designed and manufactured to reliably operate in harsh physical and
electrical environments, the SEL-2414 withstands vibration, electrical surges,
fast transients, and extreme operating temperatures of –40° to +85°C
(–40° to +185°F) and meets stringent industry standards. In addition, the
SEL-2414 is Underwriters Laboratories (UL) Class I, Division 2-certified for
use in hazardous and potentially explosive environments.

Applications
Transformer Temperature and Through-Fault Monitoring
The SEL-2414 includes IEEE C57.91-2011 and IEC 60076-7:2018 thermal models
to monitor the thermal condition of oil-filled transformers in various winding
configurations, including three sets of single-phase transformers.
Calculate top oil, hotspot, insulation aging acceleration factor, and loss of life
while generating hourly and daily data about your transformer. Capture
through-fault current data that could lead to increased transformer wear.
Assert alarms based on the thermal condition of the transformer or on other
monitored conditions.

Load Tap Position and Control Monitoring

Monitor as many as 32 tap positions (with one or three neutral tap positions) and
the raise and lower controls using the optional 14-digital-input card. Individual
tap position monitoring occurs via nonvolatile variables, while voltage regulation
is implemented with measured voltages, timers, and analog control variables. If
a tap position fails to change or an unexpected tap position occurs, the SEL-2414
asserts an alarm.
Transformer and Fan Control
LTC control, which is used in applications ranging from distribution
transformers to large autotransformers, helps regulate output voltage to
provide sufficient power throughout a system. Controlling transformer cooling
fans and fan banks ensures that transformer temperatures remain stable and
that cooling cycles are balanced, thereby increasing the life of the system.
You can implement LTC and fan control with QuickSet design templates.

Electrical Substation SCADA, Report Retrieval, and Engineering Access

Instead of settling for a remote terminal unit (RTU), use SEL automation
controllers, relays, remote I/O modules, and the SEL-2414 for higher reliability,
lower cost, and more functions. An RTU provides only remote I/O for SCADA
without the benefit of the other functions available in a distributed SEL
system. With the SEL-2414, you can:
• Provide digital and analog I/O to SEL automation controllers.
• Implement high-speed automatic control loops with SELogic control
equations using combinational logic, analog comparison,
edge-trigger, and timer functions.
• Manage protection and control settings, retrieve and file power system
reports, time-tag changes to the nearest millisecond, and directly access
devices for engineering maintenance.
