Generator Protection
SEL solutions can protect individual generators or entire generation units—including step-up transformers.SEL relays are also perfectly suited for use in cogeneration plants. They provide ideal protection for gas and steam turbines and are ready to integrate with plant control systems, so you can ensure the proper ratio of power to heat for your combined heat and power (CHP) system. Whether integrated in full-plant systems or as standalone solutions, SEL products are ideal for:
- Comprehensive generator and step-up transformer protection.
- Reliable communications for IEC 61850-based protection networks.
- Automation, annunciation, precise time, and equipment-monitoring solutions.
- Protection against premature turbine blade failure and cumulative metal fatigue from off-nominal frequencies.
- Preventing turbine overheating caused by motoring conditions.
- Integration into existing IEC 61850 protection and control schemes to reduce wiring and increase situational awareness.

Monitoring, Control, and Integration
Communicate the relay status, stator temperature, and bearing temperature to the plant control system with SEL products.
SEL-2240 Axion
Remote data acquisition in a rugged, modular platform. Choose versions with 4 or 10 slots, and mix and match the modules to fit your application. Each Axion becomes a node in your plant control network, sending deterministic fiber-optic communications to remote terminal units (RTUs), relays, or programmable logic controllers (PLCs).Learn moreSEL-3555 Real-Time Automation Controller (RTAC)
