(including RECLOSER SIMULATOR OPEN and rotary switch TR-1 [FAULT CURRENT ADJUST] in most counter-clockwise position). Step 2. Check to make sure that the SEL-351R is programmed for at least one phase fast curve trip operation (setting Operations– phase fast curve ≥ 1).
The CLOSED light on the Type MET Control Tester and the RECLOSER CLOSED LED on the SEL-351R both illuminate. Step 9. Apply a fault to the SEL-351R by setting switch S-2 (FAULT CURRENT) to the TEST position. a. After the SEL-351R trips, set switch S-2 (FAULT CURRENT) back to the OFF position.

Wait a time period equal to the Reset time from lockout setting for the CONTROL STATE RESET LED on the SEL-351R to illuminate. Step 10. Apply a fault to the SEL-351R by setting switch S-2 (FAULT CURRENT) to the TEST position. a. After the SEL-351R trips, set switch S-2 (FAULT CURRENT) back to the OFF position.

Step 3. Enable reclosing with the {RECLOSE ENABLED} operator control on the SEL-351R (corresponding LED illuminates). Step 4. If the SEL-351R is programmed for more than one phase fast curve trip operation (setting Operations–phase fast curve > 1), the reclose interval time preceding the second (or later) phase fast curve trip operation may be difficult to read on the MET Control Tester timer.

Section 6 Battery Overview When 120 Vac power is interrupted to the SEL-351R, a 24 Volt, 8.0 Amp-hour BATTERY LIST sealed lead-acid battery supplies power to the SEL-351R. The temperature- Battery Replacement on page 6.5. compensated battery monitor/charger monitors battery capacity, measures DO NOT TRANSPORT power supply load current, and calculates expected battery run time.
, then the battery failed the latest load test. See Battery Press the {STATUS} pushbutton on the front panel of the SEL-351R to access Load Test via Front Panel on page 6.3 more battery status information. With the secondary function up/down arrow Battery Load Test via Serial Port pushbuttons, move to different status screens.
Even if the battery is fully charged, it is still trickle charged and thus, the SEL-351R is still in the charge mode. After the 24-hour timer times out (and the SEL-351R is still in the charge mode), a 1 Amp load is automatically paralleled with the battery for 5 seconds.
PROBLEM LED illuminates and stays illuminated until the next battery load test is successful. This load test failure condition can be routed to an output contact if desired (see the SEL-351R Recloser Control Instruction Manual). Battery Load Test via Serial Port Step 1.
