8.7PLACING THE RELAY INTO SERVICE
8.7.1 PROCEDURE
The procedure outlined in this section is explicitly concerned with the 745 relay and does not include the operation/
commissioning or placing into service of any equipment external to the 745. Users should have already performed
such tests as phasing of CTs, ratio measurement, verification of saturation curve, insulation test, continuity and
resistance measurements.
1.
Restore all settings and logic to the desired in-service values. Verify against the check list prepared while testing the
relay.
2.
Upload all the 745 setpoints to a computer file and print for a final inspection to confirm that all setpoints are correct.
3.
Set the 745 clock (date and time).
4.
Clear all historical values stored in the relay by entering "Yes" at

5.
Remove all test connections, supplies, monitoring equipment from the relay terminals and relay panels except for
equipment to be used to monitor first transformer energization. Restore all panel wiring to normal except for those
changes made intentionally for the first energization (blocking of some tripping functions for example).
6.
Perform a complete visual inspection to confirm that the 745 is ready to be placed into service. Ensure that the relay is
properly inserted in its case. Energize the relay power supply and verify that the Relay In Service LED is ON, and that
the Self-Test Error LED is OFF, establishing that the relay is operating normally.
