Functions
DIGSI 5 permits all functions to be configured and combined as required.
- Motor protection functions: Startup time monitoring, thermal overload protection for stator and rotor, restart inhibit, unbalanced-load protection, load-jam protection
- Stator and bearing temperature monitoring via temperature sensors with optional temperature inputs or with external RTD unit.
- Sensitive ground-fault protection (non-directional, directional) to detect stator ground faults
- Directional and non-directional overcurrent protection (short- circuit protection) with additional functions
- Detection of ground faults of any type in compensated or isolated electrical power systems using the following functions: 3I0>, V0>, transient ground fault, cos φ, sin φ, harmonic, dir. Detection of intermittent ground faults and admittance
- Ground fault detection using the pulse detection method
- Overvoltage and undervoltage protection
- Arc protection
- Power protection, configurable as active or reactive power protection
- Detection of current and voltage signals up to the 50th harmonic with high accuracy for selected protection functions (such as thermal overload protection) and operational measured values
- Control, synchrocheck and switchgear interlocking protection
- PQ-Basic: voltage unbalance; voltage changes: overvoltage, dip, interruption; TDD, THD and Harmonics
- Graphical logic editor to create powerful automation functions in the device
- Single line representation in small or large display
- Integrated electrical Ethernet RJ45 for DIGSI 5 and IEC 61850 (reporting and GOOSE)

- Simple, quick and secure access to the device via a standard Web browser to display all information and diagnostic data, as well as vector diagrams, single-line and device display pages
- Secure serial protection data communication, also over great distances and all available physical media (optical fiber, two-wire connections and communication networks)
- Capturing operational measured variables and protection function measured values for the evaluation of the systems, to support commissioning, and to analyze faults
- Integrated RTD inputs (optional) for thermal motor monitoring
- Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) for synchrophasor measured values and IEEE C37.118 protocol
