Power
Underpower and overpower elements are available that can
be configured to operate as forward or reverse directional and
active or reactive. This element can be used for reverse power
IEC and ANSI/IEEE inverse-time curve profiles and low forward power applications for synchronous machines or
interconnections involving co-generation.
Load Shedding
Nine stages each of frequency protection are available (except
P14N). Each may measure in over-, under-, rate of change, and
frequency supervised rate of change modes. Fast underfrequency
element is supported for performing fast load-shedding. The wide
range of setting options permits application of any frequency-based
load shedding or islanding scheme.

FlexElement™ is a universal comparator that can be programmed
to respond either to a signal level or to a rate-of-change (delta)
over a pre-defined period. FlexElements™ can be used to generate
special protection or monitoring functions. The relay supports up to
8 FlexElements™.
