Goddamn Siemens relays and their DIGSI configuration software are the absolute loving worst.

Yeah I'm mostly speaking from a tester's perspective. SELs are king, Multilins are annoying but ultimately not all too bad, SEPAMs are clunky pieces of junk, and Siemens are a loving nightmare. I've somehow never had to test a multiprocessor Beckwith or Basler yet, but afaik they're not too terrible. It took me two and a half days to test 12 Siemens relays that are only using 50/51 and 27, which would've taken me maybe half a day at most if it weren't for DIGSI being a byzantine piece of poo poo. And yeah, Multilins seem to have way more failures than any other relay type. There was a quiet to-do a couple years ago when it turned out that some of their feeder protection relays reset themselves to default settings if they saw a particular kind of fault.

Three-Phase posted:Now that's a pretty top-shelf failure. Wow. Are there any details on that problem and fixes for that problem? I need to make sure the guys at work know that is a thing. And yeah, been seeing a lot more implementation of IRIG lately, even outside of line protection relays where time sync is an absolute necessity. freezepops posted:Have you stumbled across any ERL Phase relays (they make the Tesla fault recorders)? I don't see them to often and have generally liked their settings interface and would be curious to know if they are easy enough to test. Never heard of them, actually.

Kinda confused why you didn't just use crimp lugs on the low side cables and save yourself a bunch of hardware.

I'm really curious why you have to buy your own meter. The 87V is standard issue at my office.

you may have accidentally slipped into the Schroedinger dimension, i recommend consulting your local physicist

Looks to me like the contractor ran short on the larger conductor and spliced on several smaller conductors to finish the run.

Either way if you're not doing a PM on those at least once a year then you're loving up. It's incredible how many places we go to where the customer's batteries may as well be paper weights.

I mean I guess yeah that could be grease, although if it is then whoever put it on went waaaaaaaay overboard.

Oh poo poo really? lmao, I don't know if it's a code violation but the only places I've not seen batteries in a separate room are oil & gas PDCs.
