I need to include extra stages of protection on my network but cannot have any more reclosers because of time grading constraints. Can I still use the GVR but operate it as a sectionaliser?
Yes, the GVR with Panacea has the option to reconfigure the way that the relay works. By reprogramming the Panacea it can operate as a simple switch (remote remote control applications) or even as a sectionaliser. The Panacea is one of the most flexible protection relays available today. The functionality of the relay is provided by the configuration of the relays internal logic. For reclosing applications the relay is configured in one way – this is the standard configuration. However, if a a customer requires a sectionaliser, the logic can be reconfigured to operate accordingly. In addition to reclosing logic, the Panacea can also be configured as a voltage sensing sectionaliser, current sensing sectionaliser simple switch for automation purposes, or automatic switch for voltage throw over applications. In order to assist ease of operation, the Panacea front labels can be swapped to ensure that the push button labels reflect their current application – see comment on interchangeable
