SECTION 6
• TESTING
Introduction
You may prefer to test your relay before installation. To test BE1-79A relay functionality, perform the
procedures in the following paragraphs. Figure 6-1 illustrates the necessary connections.
NOTE
The following test procedures specify 120 Vac for relay power and the contact
sensing inputs. Therefore, contact sensing jumpers P3, P4, and P5 must be
set in position 1 or position 2. The contact sensing circuitry will not function
with 120 Vac applied and the contact-sensing jumpers setting position 3.
Instantaneous Reclose Testing
1. Place Test switch S1 in the 52a position and apply 120 Vac to the relay and test circuit.
2. Connect a PC with a serial port and suitable communication software to the relay serial port. Transmit
the settings of Table 6-1 to the relay.
Table 6-1. Instantaneous Reclose Testing Commands
Command Time Between Recloses
ACCESS= N/A
SP-79A1=0,5 0 – 0 = 0s
SP-79A2=10,15 10 – 0 = 10s
SP-79A3=20,25 20 – 10 = 10s
SP-79A4=30,35 30 – 20 = 10s
SP-79ALO=40,45 40 – 30 = 10s

3. Place Test switch S1 in the 52b position and observe that the following sequence of events occur.
a. Front panel Reset LED turns off
b. Front panel In Sequence LED lights
c. Reclose indicators L1, L2, and L3 will light immediately and remain lit for three seconds
d. After 10 seconds, L1, L2, and L3 will light for three seconds and RS indicator L5 will light and
remain lit
e. After 20 seconds, L1, L2, and L3 will light for three seconds
f. After 30 seconds, L1, L2, and L3 will light for three seconds
g. After 40 seconds, the front panel Lockout led and Lockout indicator L4 will light, and RS indicator
L5 will turn off
4. Place Test switch S1 in the 52a position and observe that after five seconds, the front panel Reset
LED lights.
5. Place Test switch S1 in the 52b position. When Reclose indicators L1, L2, and L3 light, momentarily
place Test switch S1 in the 52a position and verify that L1, L2, and L3 turn off.
6. Place Test switch S1 in the 52b position and verify that after 10 seconds, L1, L2, and L3 light for three
seconds.
7. Place Test switch S1 in the 52a position and verify that after 15 seconds, the front panel Reset LED
lights.
